A top Republican congressman was among those shot when a gunman opened fire at a congressional baseball practice in Virginia on Wednesday.
House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, the third-highest ranking Republican in the House, was shot in the hip, according to multiple reports.
Scalise's office later released a short statement on the congressman's condition, describing him as having been in "good spirits" before undergoing surgery for his wound. He is currently stable.
Alexandria police tweeted that the suspect was in custody, and that a currently unspecified number of people have been taken to a nearby hospital.
Speaking on CNN, Republican congressman Mo Brooks, who was at the baseball field during the attack, described the shooter as a white, heavyset middle aged male. Brooks said that the shooter opened fire from behind a chain link fence beyond third base, and that some people present took shelter in the field's dugout. Brooks also claimed he heard "10 or 20" rounds from the shooter before the congressional security detail responded.
Describing the scene as a "killing field," Senator Rand Paul credited the Capitol Hill police accompanying Scalise for stopping what would have otherwise been a massacre.
In a short statement on the shooting, President Donald Trump wrote that he was aware of the situation, calling it a "tragedy," and offering his thoughts and prayers to everyone affected by the attack.
Scalise has served in Congress since 2008. He has been an ardent conservative, earning an A+ rating from the National Rife Association. Shortly after having been named to the Republican congressional leadership team, Scalise was forced to apologize for delivering a speech to an avowed white supremacist group founded by former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke in 2002.
Update, 11:43 AM: President Trump claimed that the shooter had died from his injuries.
Update, 1:11 PM: According to those who knew him, Hodgkinson had been angry over Trump's election, and had recently traveled to Washington DC to protest the administration. Hodgkinson's Facebook profile had been peppered with anti-Trump articles, and posts praising Bernie Sanders.
Illinois' Belleville News Democrat reported that Hodgkinson had amassed an extensive arrest record for crimes such as DUI, resisting an officer, property damage, and eluding police. In 2006, Hodgkinson was arrested for domestic battery, but those charges were subsequently dismissed.

Effect of fluoridated water on intelligence in 10-12-year-old school children.
Author: Aravind A, Dhanya RS, Narayan A, Sam G, Adarsh VJ, Kiran M.
Journal Name: Journal of International Society of Preventive & Community Dentistry
Volume/Page: 6 (Suppl 3), S237-S242.
Type: Human Study
Categories: Brain, Cognitive Function, IQ Score, *NTP2019
Aim: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relationship of drinking water fluoride levels with children's intelligence quotient (IQ).
Materials and methods: Water was collected from initially identified endemic fluoride regions according to the geological research of Government of India. Fluoride concentration of the water was assessed by utilizing fluoride ion selective electrode, Orion 9609BN, and categorized on the basis of fluoride concentration into low, medium, and high-fluoride regions, i.e., Virajpet (low fluoride level < 1.2 ppm), Banavara (Medium fluoride level 1.2-2 ppm), and Mastihalli (High fluoride levels > 3 ppm). Government school from all three villages were selected randomly and IQ levels were assessed by using Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices. This test was conducted on each child in the study sample.
Results: A significant inverse relationship was found between the fluoride concentration in drinking water and IQ (r value = -0.204; P < 0.000). It was observed that IQ level was negatively correlated with fluoride concentration in drinking water.
Conclusion: It is concluded that IQ level was negatively correlated with fluoride level in drinking water. Factors that might affect children's IQ need to be considered, and it is necessary to devise solutions for preventing the harmful effects of excessive intake of fluoride ion to the body.

This rental place was so efficient, less than 10 mins to process and rent the car. Staffs are so friendly and helpful. Strongly recommend this place!
Everything Avis did was great: Great car, new and in an excellent condition (got an upgrade because there was no inventory for the grade I reserved). Nice friendly staff especially when I returned the car, very efficient. They took pictures of the car's condition before giving to you so there would be no argument if there are any damages or scratches when you return. They didn't upsell car insurance. In fact they said the free one is the most popular choice and should be enough. I like my experience with them.

Q: installing application on docker instead of windows I have no information about Docker. I am programming with python and asp.net core and nodejs I have PostgreSQL and SQL server on my windows I want to know it is possible to install visual studio and SQL server on docker image and in another one, I install pycharm and PostgreSQL. active them any time I want no ide installed on my windows. install a GUI app on docker and run them from this way.
I'm looking to separate the technology tools I use, and to install the software in a separate environment that's completely isolated. I've used a virtual machine before. Now I want to know if it's possible to work with Docker?
thank you

A: Short answer: Yes, you can separate your tools into their own Docker containers.
Long Answer: You will first need to grab a base image for each of the tools you wish to have in their own container. There are images on Docker Hub for about every tool you would want. You could either use one of these out of the box, or use them as your base image and do some additional customization in your own Dockerfile.
For example, lets say you want to run a PostgreSQL database, a nodejs server, and a python server. You would create 3 Dockerfiles. One could use the default PostgreSQL image from Docker Hub. The next one, you would use a nodejs image as your base image, and copy in your files based on the guidelines for running a nodejs server in Docker. For Python, get a Python image as your base, and copy your files in according to the guidelines for running a Python server with Docker, with whatever framework you are using.
There are countless guides online for running almost any environment in a Docker container. It's very doable, but you will have to do a little bit of research.
Let me know if you have any questions.

PFAW Foundation Brief: Gender Identity Policy in Dallas, Oregon Schools Should Stand
Jen Herrick	| March 12, 2019
People For in Action
Based on Monica Helms design
The Ninth Circuit could soon decide Parents for Privacy v. Dallas School District No. 2, a case concerning an Oregon school district that permits transgender students to access restrooms and locker rooms consistent with their gender identities. In a friend-of-the-court brief filed by People For the American Way Foundation and allied organizations, we make clear that this policy is about a core American constitutional principle—preventing discrimination—and that promoting equality and recognition for transgender students benefits all students. Our introduction follows below. Click here to download a PDF copy of the full brief.
SUMMARY OF ARGUMENT
Dallas School District No. 2 ("Dallas") implemented a Student Safety Plan permitting a transgender student to access the restrooms and locker rooms consistent with his gender identity (the "Policy"). Dallas's Policy is similar to policies upheld by courts around the country and reflects Dallas's compliance with antidiscrimination protections under federal law. In a detailed opinion rejecting Appellants' challenge to the Policy, the District Court approvingly cited case law from around the country holding that schools have a compelling interest in protecting transgender students from discrimination, and that policies such as Dallas's are narrowly tailored to serve that interest. The Policy also reflects a core American constitutional principle: the prevention of discrimination, which the Supreme Court has acknowledged is particularly important in a school environment. These grounds alone warrant affirming the District Court.
The District Court's decision is also consistent with social science and empirical research demonstrating that Dallas's Policy serves the interests of all students, including those who are transgender. Transgender students face a disproportionate amount of discrimination, bias, and harassment. Policies such as Dallas's help prevent discrimination and harassment by promoting a safe, inclusive, and tolerant school and learning environment. They also enhance a school's ability to shield transgender students from bias and harassment and teach a generation of children the importance of inclusivity, tolerance, and respect. For these reasons, and as explained further below, amici curiae respectfully request that this Court affirm the District Court's decision.

There's evidence to suggest that we could be the last generation powered by fossil fuels. Recent investments in renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar and biomass, have rapidly increased the competitiveness of fossil fuel alternatives. According to many energy consumption statistics, renewables are the fastest-growing energy source for power generation.
There are two main reasons for making investments in renewable (aka green) energy. First, fossil fuels are limited in supply, and they will eventually run out.Second, and more importantly, fossil fuel emissions like carbon dioxide are increasing the planet's temperature and damaging our ecosystem.
Green energy is the energy of the future, so it's important to become familiar with the working principles of renewable energy systems.The central feature of these systems is the battery. In this article, we'll discuss the specifics of the batteries and inverters used in renewable energy systems, particularly those used for solar energy.
Solar Energy and How to Convert It to Electricity
The sun is the source of almost all energy available on Earth. Solar energy is produced from nuclear fusion in the sun's core, where hydrogen is fused into helium. This releases a huge amount of energy in the form of light and heat, and a small amount of this energy strikes the Earth's surface—up to 1kW/m2, though the actual value depends on location, season, weather conditions and other factors.
Solar energy, which is almost unlimited if we can collect it and convert it to an appropriate form, can be harnessed in the three following ways:
Solar thermal collector: absorbs sunlight to collect heat
Photovoltaic (PV)cell: converts sunlight directly into electrical energy
Concentrated solar power: uses mirrors to concentrate a large area of sunlight onto a small area
There are three main parts of solar energy systems: solar panels, solar charge controllers, and an inverter and battery storage system. Solar energy systems engineers must consider the following parameters: PV cell maximum power, sunlight intensity, angle of the sunlight (PV panel tilt angle), and the amount of sunhours (generally calculated by the amount of sun hours per day).
How Does a Battery Work?
A battery is a portable energy source that converts chemical energy to electrical energy. Simply put, batteries contain three basic parts: the electrodes, the electrolyte and a separator. There are always two electrodes in a battery: the cathode is connected to the positive end, while the anode is connected to the negative end. When the battery powers a load, it discharges, and current flows from the cathode to the anode. When the battery charges, current flows from the anode to the cathode.
Electrodes are immersed in an electrolyte, a liquid or gel substance that contains the electrically charged ions that react with the electrodes. This chemical process causes the battery to generate electricity. The separator physically separates the electrodes. Without it, the electrodes would come into contact and be short-circuited, destroying the battery.
The main parts of a battery: cathode, anode, electrolyte and separator.
Batteries provide electricity in the form of direct current (DC), but an inverter can be used to achieve alternating current(AC). The most important parameters of any battery are the following:
Nominal cell voltage
Number of cells in the battery string
A battery string in a substation.
The capacity of a battery indicates how much energy it can store, which can be measured in ampere hours (Ah). This gives an approximate measure of how much current the battery can provide in an hour. If a more accurate definition is required, the battery voltage must be considered, as voltage decreases during discharge. The total energy of a battery can be given in watt-hours (Wh), which are calculated as follows:
where E is the energy in Wh,
Vavg is average voltage over a discharge cycle, and
C is the battery capacity in Ah.
It is amazing that batteries are currently available on the market with capacities up to 3000Ah.
Different Battery Types
Batteries can be roughly grouped into two types: regular (nonrechargeable) and rechargeable. This article focuses on the rechargeable batteries used in renewable energy systems. In this battery type, the chemical reaction is reversible, allowing both discharging as well as recharging. There are three main types of rechargeable batteries: lead-acid, nickel-cadmium (NiCd) and lithium-ion.
Types of rechargeable batteries.
Lead-acid batteries, designed as flooded (wet) or valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA), can be manufactured with a nominal cell voltage of 2V or 12V. Nickel-cadmium battery cells have a nominal voltage of 1.2V. Lastly, the nominal voltage of lithium-ion batteries can range from3.3-3.7V, depending on the chemistry of the cell.
Life Span of a Battery
It's almost impossible to estimate how long a given battery will last, as there are many factors that influence the life cycle of a battery. These include battery type, the number of charging/recharging cycles, operating conditions like temperature, how fully the battery was discharged, among others.
If all battery systems are properly managed, a battery will die after all the active materials have been consumed or the positive grids have deteriorated due to corrosion, which occurs throughout the battery's lifetime. Failure to follow appropriate design and system management guidelines will almost always guarantee a battery system's early failure. There are eight ways to kill a battery:
Overcharge
Overdischarge
Excessive charge rates
Excessive discharge rates
Improper equalization
Too hot or cold operational environment
Extended storage period
Improper battery for a given application
Solar energy is available during the day, but energy is also necessary during the night. This makes batteries a very important part of the solar energy system, as they can provide constant electrical power whether the energy source is available or not. Solar energy system owners need a reliable battery with a long lifespan—not to mention an affordable price.
It can be hard to find a battery that meets all these requirements.Batteries in solar energy systems require a long lifespan because of the many charge/discharge cycles that occur during the day and night. Since the battery must power appliances during the overnight hours, it should also have a high capacity and be able to operate without damage when it is deeply discharged (this is known as deep-cycle storage capability).
What's a Good Battery for Solar Energy Systems?
Deep-cycle storage capability is a mandatory feature for batteries in a solar energy system. Lead-acid batteries have this feature, as they can be discharged up to 80 percent of total capacity without any repercussions. Flooded lead-acid batteries are the most commonly used batteries in solar energy systems, as they also have a long lifespan and are cost-effective.
The disadvantage of flooded lead-acid batteries is that they are difficult to maintain, a definite drawback because solar plants are typically installed in terrain that can be challenging to access. The electrolyte of flooded lead-acid batteries evaporates, so these batteries must be refilled. They must also have an exhaust system to prevent hydrogen gas from accumulating to dangerous levels, so the battery station requires ventilation. Another problem with flooded lead-acid batteries is disposal, because of their toxicity. Thankfully, due to battery development in the automotive industry, it's now possible to recycle these batteries.
Gelled electrolyte VRLA batteries use a silica gel instead of a liquid electrolyte. These batteries cannot be spilled and are very low maintenance. However, because they are quite expensive and have less capacity than other battery types, gelled electrolyte VRLAs are not popular in solar applications.
Absorbed glass mat (AGM) VRLA batteries offer the advantages of gelled electrolyte VRLA batteries while avoiding their disadvantages. As an electrolyte, they use fine fiber boron-silicate glass mat instead of a gel, so they can't be spilled even when broken. Their self-discharging rate is even better than with flooded lead-acid batteries, and they also better at withstanding temperature variations. However, one clear disadvantage is that AGM batteries are two to three times more expensive than flooded lead-acid batteries.
Nickel-cadmium batteries are not as popular for use in solar energy systems. In recent years,the electric car industry has been focusing on lithium-ion batteries and has invested a lot in their development. Thus, lithium-ion batteries are becoming increasingly popular in renewable energy applications, offering good quality and a long lifespan (approximately five years, according to Tesla).
Lithium-ion batteries are the most common energy storage technology used today. However, these batteries have disadvantages for use in renewable energy systems. They have lower efficiencies, higher self-discharging rates, and worse temperature tolerances than lead-acid batteries. In addition,they are still expensive.
Currently, flooded lead-acid batteries are the most popular batteries used for solar energy applications, and they will probably remain dominant in that space over the next few years.
Inverter Design
The majority of electrical devices use ACvoltage, so inverters are used to convert DC electricity to useable AC.
The main components of inverters are the switching elements, which provide two alternate paths for the load current flow. The switching elements constantly switch, alternating the current direction in each switching sequence. Semiconductor switches (primarily transistors) are typically used as the switching element. In practice, MOSFET transistors are widely used with output power up to a maximum of 5kW. When more power is required, IGBT transistors are generally used.
Basic diagram of a single-phase inverter (left) and three-phase inverter (right).
A simple inverter produces square wave signals. The figure that follows shows the basic operating principle of this inverter (creating the AC square wave signal).
Inverter operation sequence to create a square wave signal.
This simple inverter can be used in basic applications such as for lights, heaters and so on, but not for most electrical devices, as it produces significant harmonic distortion.
Many different variations of inverters are available on the market—from simple square waves up to pure sine waves.Advanced inverters use many stages to produce a sine wave, and filters are used to produce as pure a sine wave as possible.
Main Inverter Parameters
Single-phase inverters are usually installed in low power systems like houses, while three-phase inverters are generally used in high power solar plants. High power solar plants usually have transformers to increase the network voltage value.
The inverter power is determined by photovoltaic (PV) solar generation power. The voltage and its frequency value should always be stable, and should also be tolerated on the time-limited overload and high inrush current (peak current). The inverter nameplate should have information about the overload power in limited time. The inverter input and output should be galvanic isolated.
An important parameter of inverters is their efficiency. Inverter efficiency represents the inverter's losses when it converts DC into AC power, and it's defined as the ratio between useful output power and the input. The inverter withdraws energy from the battery even when it does not supply any AC load, which is why larger applications use "sleep mode" inverters in which a sensor detects if supplying power is required and activates the inverter accordingly.
Inverter technology has progressed enormously. Today, inverters are available with efficiency ratings of 95 percent, and the best solutions on the market can even provide 98 percent efficiency.
Specifics of the Solar Inverter
Photovoltaic solar systems generate DC voltage, and an inverter converts the power to AC voltage. Solar inverters produce a sine wave and are designed for high power—up to hundreds of kilowatts. Unlike simple electronics inverters, solar inverters provide numerous functions in addition to DC-to-AC conversion. They are responsible for energy metering, monitoring, regulation and protection of the solar energy system.
Solar energy systems can be designed as on-grid or off-grid (isolated) systems. Off-grid systems are designed to work independent of the electrical network, while on-grid systems can supply energy to the network. On-grid systems can be set up with or without a battery storage system, which can be used for backup power. Inverters are a mandatory component in both types of systems.
Energy in a solar energy system can flow in different directions. In the case of a simple system in a home application, the users can be supplied only from PV panels. If there is insufficient sunlight, the users can be supplied from both PV panels and batteries, or only from the batteries (e.g., during the night).
An on-grid solar energy system.
A very important function of solar inverters is their role as the solar charge controller. Depending on the energy state of the PV panels, the solar inverter will direct energy to users, battery charging or the network. The charge controller connects the PV panels, batteries and users, but also protects the battery from overvoltage and deep discharging.The battery voltage is adjusted automatically depending on the battery type, condition and temperature, while the user supply voltage must be constant.
Another important task of the solar inverter is providing protection and safety. This is especially important in on-grid systems, as there are strict regulations when a solar system is connected to the network. In this case, the inverter must synchronize the voltage and frequency of the solar plant to the network. It also must synchronize any disconnections from the network during outages, as it can be problematic if the solar system continues to supply energy even though the power grid is no longer in place. This is called islanding,and it can be dangerous to workers who may come in contact with powered circuits. Solar inverters should be able to detect islanding and disconnect the solar system from the circuit—a feature called anti-islanding.
Maximum Power Point Tracking
Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is a very specific inverter parameter in solar systems. Solar energy systems produce a variable amount of energy depending on the light intensity, and MPPT is a method of finding the point at which the PV panels are supplying maximum power. The goal is to adapt the load characteristic based on the solar panel's energy state to provide the most highly efficient power transfer from the solar panels.

If we are truly to be the last generation powered by fossil fuels, engineers must have a firm understanding of the technologies used in renewable energy systems. We've discussed the specifics of batteries and inverters used in solar energy systems, but many other forms of renewable energy will also be crucial to ending our reliance on fossil fuels.

The three-judge panel points out that schoolchildren are often required to attend the meetings.
SAN FRANCISCO — A federal appeals court decided Wednesday that a California school board's meetings may not include prayers, proselytizing or the citing of Christian Scripture.
A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a 2016 injunction against the religious practices, which the court said dated back to at least 2010.
In its appeal, the Chino Valley Unified School District board argued that it was covered by an exception for traditional prayer at the start of state legislatures, Congress and town hall meetings.
The 9th Circuit disagreed, noting that the school board meetings include children and teenagers who are more vulnerable than adults to outside influence and who have been obligated to attend to give presentations, perform or receive awards.
"These prayers typically take place before groups of schoolchildren whose attendance is not truly voluntary and whose relationship to school district officials, including the board, is not one of full parity," the court said in an unsigned decision.
Unlike sessions of Congress, state legislatures and town boards, the Chino Valley school board meetings "function as extensions of the educational experience of the district's public schools," the 9th Circuit said.

3TEETH Prepare for Metawar. Album Release July 5th, 2019 »
3TEETH: METAWAR
METAWAR
Album Details!
ALBUM PRE-ORDER!
2019 Tour Dates
I'm torn on how I feel about the band's 3rd release. Is it a great album? Yes. Is it what I was expecting from 3Teeth? No. Were my expectations too high for the band? Maybe? Like many others, I came across 3Teeth's self-titled release almost on accident thanks to the band's opening slot on TOOL's 2016 North American tour, and there was no looking back.
I had high hopes for Metawar, especially after finding out that Sean Beavan would be producing the album. Vocalist and founder Alexis Mincolla told us last spring in Kansas City that " we enlisted Sean Beavan for this one. This is our 3rd album. We're called 3Teeth. We've gotta blow album 3 outta the park."
Beavan has mixed, produced, and engineered albums for Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, A Perfect Circle, and many others. It was the music that Beavan helped to craft in his early years, Pretty Hate Machine, The Downward Spiral, Antichrist Superstar, and Mechanical Animals, that helped to shape how I listened to music and turned my ears to the heavier side of the Rock, Metal, and Industrial genres. I'm a child of the 90's, and Beavan's albums were always in heavy rotation in my CD player, even if teenage rural Iowa me had no idea who the guy was.
Flash forward 25 years, and my taste in music has ever so slightly evolved, much like the bands I've followed for the past 3 decades.
Metawar is a concept album of sorts. While the band's self-titled release was centered around Man vs Himself, <shutdown.exe> broadened that focus to Man vs. World. Metawar completes the trilogy with a World vs. World conceptualization. 3Teeth's music has evolved since their inception. The band's self-titled, and sophomore releases are organized chaos. Dirty. Brutal. Unrelenting. Metawar feels more polished, and precisely executed. There's still a sonic vulgarity behind the band's music, but it's presented in its Sunday best.
I remember Greenday's Billie Jo Armstrong talking about the seriousness presented in the band's 2004 American Idiot release, and the stylistic and lyrical change of direction for the band from 2002's Shennanigans. Basically he said that it was okay to be an angry man in his 20s spouting off on stage in a punk band but he's in his 30s now and that anger needs to have focus, purpose and a reason to be angry other than just being angry. Metawar is 3Teeth's American Idiot. After a few listens, I find there are more parallels between the two albums. Each deals with the dissolution caused by modern society, especially the social and political aspects that influence our everyday lives. Where American Idiot told the story of Jesus of Suburbia, the album's anti-hero, and Saint Jimmy, I hear the entirety of Metawar as being told from the reptilian President X's perspective, but it's not until the album's 4th full track that we see the man behind the mask. One subject missing from American Idiot that is touched on in Metawar is the advent of social media and way people have disassociated themselves from the real world.
We've already heard 4 singles ahead of the album's release, American Landfill, Affluenza, EXXXIT, and President X. These four tracks give a glimpse of what to expect from Metawar. Hearing them in the album's setting though gives a deeper understanding of the tracks individual placement. Metawar starts out strong and doesn't let up.
Altaer is full of aggression and frustration. Time Slave starts off as a banger, gives us a quick moment to catch our breath, then gut punches us back to reality. Bornless is unrelenting in its sonic brutality. Sell Your Face 2.0 is a definite gem on the album. The band has been playing the track live since 2015 but are just now releasing a studio recording. As cool as the original live version is, the studio version is haunting. It's definitely got a Cyle of the Wurm/Antichrist Superstar vibe to it. Blackout and The Fall fit together perfectly as the album's closing tracks as the albums drags us deeper into the post-apocalyptic sonic landscape. 3Teeth's cover of Foster the People's Pumped Up Kicks is not the track I was expecting them to cover. Honestly speaking, I was hoping the band would shy away from cover songs. The song itself was inspired by incredibly dark subject matter that has become the U.S.'s new normal; school shootings. Summer of 2011 was dominated by that damn song, and 3Teeth's new spin on the indie pop hit will absolutely broaden their fan base.
I can't get into the deeper occult and numerology meanings of the album's tracks because honestly I'm not as educated as 3Teeth's founder and lyricist Alexis Mincolla. I've had the honor of speaking with Mincolla in person twice, and his intellectual level is quite intimidating. After talking with Mincolla, I firmly believe that there's no such thing as a casual fan of 3Teeth. You either get their music, or you don't. It's all or nothing. 3Teeth are trying to open our eyes to the world around us. The band makes us think, question, and reject the new normal, and that's why we love them.

This episode of 'The Good Doctor' looks more into Glassman's memory loss, Melendez and Claire's ongoing fight & more! Read our recap!
This episode of The Good Doctor opens up with a couple coming into the Emergency Room after getting into a car accident on their anniversary. The wife has internal bleeding while the husband's hip needs to be put back in place, which Dr. Shaun Murphy does before following the wife into the OR. While Dr. Lim and Dr. Claire Brown are performing surgery on the woman, they find her internal bleeding in her fallopian tube — realizing she is pregnant.
Dr. Alex Park and Dr. Morgan Reznick are dealing with a family who refused to vaccinate their son, and the doctors are concerned he has contracted polio. Upon hearing they are anti-vaxxers, Morgan panics and rushes out of the room, with Alex following her. She becomes emotional when recalling a story about her friend Carol, who didn't vaccinate her son. Carol's son died at 1 years old from Whooping Cough, after pediatricians refused to see him because he was never vaccinated, and the one doctor who did see him, believed anti-vaxxing was ok.
Shaun and Claire tell the husband, Todd, that his wife is doing well but they couldn't save her baby. He revealed that he had a vasectomy before they were married, so there was no way she could be pregnant. In her room, the patient promises her husband that she has been faithful, and requests that the doctors do a count of his sperm to see if it was possible he impregnated her. However, when Shaun is taking some tests in the patient's room, she tells him, "I love my husband," but then kisses Shaun on the lips. What the heck!
Dr. Park took the initiative to tell the parents Carol's story and asked them to reconsider vaccinations for their new baby. Finn is negative for polio, but we need to do an MRI. "We're sorry for your friend, but our opinion hasn't changed." The doctors find in their MRI that Finn has two spinal cords. Ahead of his surgery to unravel his two spines, Finn's parents decide to vaccinate him. In the middle of receiving his vaccination from Park, Finn tries to stand up to go to the bathroom and collapses, unable to feel his feet.
"Todd's sperm count is zero, and his wife kissed me on the lips," Shaun says to Dr. Lim and Claire. As Shaun goes to tell Todd, he sees the husband limping down the hallway straight into his wife's room. He tells her their medical insurance was cancelled, they have $400 worth in savings, and no money left in retirement. What has this woman been doing?! The patient admits to cheating and says she "tried to stop but I just couldn't help myself," before Todd storms out. When Shaun asks her why she did it, she says she doesn't know and her hand spasms, leading Shaun to believe a neurological issue caused her infidelity. However, Shaun and Claire doesn't find anything when looking at their patient's brain. "The world is sad and very complicated, I wish it wasn't," Shaun sadly states before leaving the room.
Dr. Glassman is tested by his oncologist on his memory lapses and he is angered by her prodding. She wants to do a memory loss test but he continues to fight her on it and refuses. He asks Shaun if he can find out whether he's losing his memory and Shaun tells him to come over later than night.
Finn's surgery is a success and he has movement in toes and can feel both of his legs. However, his temperature begins to raise and his heart slows as the doctors rsh to give him oxygen and find out what is going on. It's revealed that Finn has a staph infection, but Park promises that it's not due to his vaccination. Finn's father freaks out and says he never approved for them to vaccinate his son. Finn's mom, Bethany, reveals she never got her husband's permission, and made the decision to protect their future baby from getting sick.
Shaun tells his patient that she doesn't have a tumor, she's "just a liar." However, Claire then asks her to draw a clock (Brain On Fire, anyone?!) and she has a tumor in her chest, that sends signals to her brain that diminish her inhibitions. Todd still isn't thrilled and asks her how many affairs she had, to which she replies "Four." However, she admits she donated all of their money, it wasn't spent on trips or hotels. Todd is still heartbroken and storms out before his wife goes into surgery.
Claire apologizes to Melendez, but tells him she doesn't really mean it, and explains she's doing it to give him "cover." At the same time, he also says he's sorry, and the two share a flirty moment before Claire goes in to surgery.
Claire tells Todd they got the tumor out, but he says he doesn't know if he can forgive his wife. Claire points out that his wife did everything that "tempted her," but she never even thought of leaving Todd, she was never tempted to.
Alex approaches Finn's dad, and might have revealed that he has a child and family of his own, which he left. Finn's father tells him he's had enough of his stories, and Alex seems to hold back tears as he walks away. Morgan finds him in the locker room and tells him to go to a bar. Instead, he says he's going to go the gun range, and she asks if she can come. He says she can if she won't talk — LOL. I like this duo!
In TK's recovery room, Todd returns and holds her hand. "This is a good sign," Shaun says before going home to meet Dr. Glassman. At his apartment, Shaun tests Glassman on his knowledge of things in Shaun's life. He asks Glassman what his brother's name is, and he starts to laugh, and then cry because he can't remember. "Your brother's name is Sam," Glassman says. After a long pause, Shaun replies, "It's Steve." Oh no.
We'll wait and see what happens with Glassman and more on another dramatic episode of The Good Doctor next Monday at 10 PM!

How to File a Will in DuPage County, Illinois
By: Teo Spengler
How to Find a Will in Missouri
••• Monkey Business Images/Monkey Business/Getty Images
In Illinois, all wills must be filed with the court when the person who made it dies, even if the will does not need to be probated. If the probate process is required, and the deceased resided in DuPage County, you begin the proceeding by filing a petition for probate with the clerk of the court.
Will Filing Requirement
If you are in possession of a will of an Illinois resident who died, you have 30 days from the date of death to file that will with the Clerk of the Circuit Court in the county in which the decedent resided. This includes any original will and all codicils, or will amendments. You must file a will even if you believe it to be superseded by a more recent one. You may have to pay a fine if you fail to do so and, if your failure is deliberate, you can be charged with a felony for concealing the will.
DuPage County Courts
The trial court level throughout Illinois is called the circuit court, and includes everything from small claims to probate. Dupont County Circuit Court has 15 circuit judges and 26 associates. The court administration for the county is managed by the clerk of court, an elected official, whose staff is charged with keeping all of the files and records of the court. To file a will, take it to the clerk's office at 505 County Farm Road, Wheaton, Illinois, during business hours and hand it to one of the clerks. Note that the only wills that should be filed in DuPage County are those of people who resided in that county before they died.
Opening Probate
If you want to open probate on an estate, the filing is separate from the will filing. You fill out and file a petition for probate and the case is set for hearing before a probate judge. You may want to consult an attorney to help determine whether you'll need to take the will through the probate process. Generally, if the estate is worth more than $100,000, it goes to probate. Property that passes outside of probate, like life insurance and pay-on-death accounts, are not included in the total value of the estate for probate purposes. In DuPage County, as in all counties in Illinois, probate cannot wrap up before six months since the law allows creditors that time to file claims.
Wills as Public Documents
A will is a private document while the person making it is alive. When the person dies, however, and the will is filed with the court's office in DuPage County, it becomes a public document. Any member of the public can visit the clerk's office during business hours and ask to see the will. For a small fee, you can obtain a copy of the document.

I barely had time to sit down before my friends started asking me a series of questions – "Lisa, where did you say that you worked?" I've been taking some courses for some time at a local community college – which is where I met my new friends. Many of them come straight to class right after work and so I've made it a habit to arrive thirty to forty minutes before class begins so that we can chat. A few of my closer friends and I meet for coffee on a regular basis – it's always a highlight for me.
To be honest, I'd been hoping to avoid any in-depth questions about my present occupation. Not because I'm ashamed or embarrassed, but because of the assumptions that are immediately made the moment you tell anyone that you work for a church. People tend to look at you a little differently, and in my opinion, become a little more guarded when they know you work for a religious organization.
It's always a bit of a challenge to form meaningful friendships with co-workers who need to hear about Jesus when you work for a Christian organization!
So the gig was up and my cover was blown – but I was pretty confident that I'd spent enough time establishing real friendships that it would not matter.
I really believe that you have to earn the right to speak into someone's life. They have to know that you care about them, that you are interested in their struggles, pain, joys . . . in short – that you are their friend. I think something very powerful can happen when you love and accept people in whatever state you find them without trying to change them.
I wish I could tell you that I've always thought this way . . . many of my "attempts" at reaching out to those around me ended abruptly because of my "here's what God thinks about what you are doing" attitude. There was nothing gracious or loving in my approach in those early years . . . it was forceful, cutting and often impatient. I was not interested in making friends – I just wanted to tell them they needed to change.
I'm still learning that it's not up to me to win anyone to Christ – that's the Holy Spirit's job. My job is simply to demonstrate the love of Christ in practical and tangible ways.
I've had some great opportunities to share with my friends over the past months. None of them have made any decisions about Jesus yet. They still have a lot of questions and that's okay with me. They are my friends, so I'll be there as long as it takes.


Geology is the study of the earth, its environments, and its history. It is an interdisciplinary science that combines geological observations and concepts with those of biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics. Its goals are to study rocks, minerals, fossils, and energy and water resources, and to understand geologic principles and processes that shape the earth and its environments.
Students wishing to minor in Geology must contact a Geology advisor before beginning upper division work in Geology.

Q: Pointer to function parameter vs function parameter? I'd like to understand what is the difference between the 2 declarations, f1 and f2, below:
In f1 I declare the parameter to be a pointer to a function of type void(), how is the f2 declaration different from the f1? Are the declarations equivalent? In main I can invoke both of them with functions of prototype void (). I understand the concept of passing by value/pointer/reference, however these are functions and don't really understand the difference. It is not like I can "modify" the function passed as parameter in f1... Thanks!
PS: came by this question when bumping into the well known Most Vexing Parsing problem :)
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

void f1(void (*x)())
{
    x();
}

void f2(void x())
{
    x();
}

void g1()
{
    cout << "Invoking f1(g1())" << endl;
}

void g2()
{
    cout << "Invoking f2(g2())" << endl;
}

int main()
{
    f1(g1);
    f2(g2);
}

The program compiles and the output is
Invoking f1(g1())
Invoking f2(g2())

A: They're equivalent.  You're getting confused by the implicit pointer conversion that happens with arguments.
Since you can't pass a function as an argument to a function (you can't do anything with functions in C other than call them or take their address), the compiler silently changes the argument into a pointer to a function.
This is much the same as happens with arrays -- you can't pass arrays as function arguments either, so any time you declare a function argument as an array, it silently gets changed into a pointer.

A: They are alternative syntax for the exact same thing. In both cases a function pointer is passed, but you are allowed to use non-pointer syntax in the parameter list.  Use of a function name always decays to a pointer to function (and this can happen recursively).

A: In both C and C++, if you declare a function parameter to have function type, its type will be adjusted to function pointer.
C99, §6.7.5.3/8

A declaration of a parameter as ''function returning type'' shall be adjusted to ''pointer to
             function returning type'', as in 6.3.2.1.

C++11, §8.3.5/5

... After
  determining the type of each parameter, any parameter of type "array of T" or "function returning T" is
  adjusted to be "pointer to T" or "pointer to function returning T," respectively...

Thus, in C++, for example, we can write the types of both f1 and f2 as void(void(*)()).


Townsquare Media just wrapped up it's annual food donation drive with proceeds going to the Community Food Bank of Grand Junction. Once again, Carville's Automart joined with the radio stations to match donations.
Tuesday afternoon, December 20th, members from the Community Food Bank of Grand Junction's board of directors met with management and staff at Carville's Automart to hear the totals for this year's food drive.
Board members Biff Messinger and Darcy Johnson were on hand to make the announcement. The owners at Carville's Automart arrived to present another $1,000 check, matching penny for penny a $1,000 contribution made by an anonymous party.
In the video below, board member Biff Messinger provides totals for this year's drive.
Thank you to everyone who donated at our four stops across the valley. With your support, families across Western Colorado will have food on the table during difficult times.

Q: Code not showing up when opening Visual Studio from Unity I am a newcomer when it comes to Unity. I was following along with this online course. At one point, I had to write a C# script. So, I created one and doubled clicked it to edit it with Visual Studio. However when Visual Studio opened, all I could see was a essentially a blank screen. I couldn't see any code. Does anyone know the fix?
Thank you

A: Did you create it inside like this ... In Unity>ProjectWindow>AssetsFolder>RightClick>Create>C#Script.Then double click to open it.It will open up a script containing Start() and Update() method.If you could not find this.Restart and try.This is to test and try script for Unity scripting.

A: So this is way too late for the original post but maybe someone else will find this useful. So you did everything you were supposed to and even see the automated code with everything it should have in the inspector, but when you go and run the code whether clicking the actual script in the asset>scripts or clicking the open button in the inspector the same problem persists... blank uneditable screen.
I think you may just need to run updates on Visual Studio and/or if on a Mac maybe you need to log back into Microsoft. To do this just click the Visual Studio tab and click check for updates. Usually, you will also see an update suggestion in the top center of the screen. Run the updates and let it restart visual studio. Once you reopen visual studio at this time if you are on a Mac it should ask you to log into Microsoft. Your code might show up now.


Merry making is merry wishing and this is more glaring in Christmas. As some people are probably still on their last minute planning, some celebrities are already in the tick of things.
Bollywood's screen diva Pryanka Chopra, Nollywood's Omotola and Uche Jombo have taken to social media to wish everyone a Merry Christmas.
Actress Omotola Jalade-Ekehinde wished all her fans a Merry Christmas through a fan page on Instagram, in a picture sponsored by Scan-frost.
But she did not only wish her fans a Merry Christmas. This stunning beauty took time out to give out household tips.
Uche Jombo seemed to have celebrated hers with her family as she shares a cute picture of a baby boy standing in front of a tree and a picture of herself on her Instagram fan page.

Q: Print the contents of a slice of struct Apologies if this is wrong to begin with. I am attempting to learn Golang, and am working through various concepts. I am pretty sure I am confusing something here... I am trying to write a simple program that creates a struct called 'person' which accepts firstname, lastname, and age. I want a user to be able to specify the number of people they will be entering into a slice of struct person, then iterate through the number of people entered, taking the input and storing it in the slice of person. Then, I want to be able to print one of those 'person' to terminal, for instance the 6th one (assuming that many were entered). Here is what I have so far:
package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    var people int

    type person struct {
        firstName string
        lastName  string
        age       int
    }

    listOfPeople := make([]person, 10)

    fmt.Println("Please enter the number of users you would like to   create:")
    fmt.Scan(&people)

    for i := 0; i < people; i++ {
        var a, b string
        var c int
        fmt.Println("Please enter a person's information: ")
        fmt.Print("First Name: ")
        fmt.Scan(&a)
        fmt.Print("Last Name: ")
        fmt.Scan(&b)
        fmt.Print("Age: ")
        fmt.Scan(&c)
        listOfPeople = append(listOfPeople, person{a, b, c})
    }
    //Print the contents of listOfPeople
}

Where the code comment "print the contents of listOfPeople is where I would like to be able to print a 'person'. I have tried a couple of things but nothing prints or compilation fails. Without attempting to print out a person from listOfPeople the code compiles and runs. I know I am missing something here. Any help is appreciated. I realize this code is likely not optimized or there may be a simpler way of doing it, so if there is please feel free to correct me.
Thank you

A: You're appending to a slice of already allocated 10 people, so you may think that the first person you appended is on the 0th index but it's actually be on the 10th.

Data reveals more than 1,100 people killed or seriously injured on our roads last year
Jacob Thorburn
More than 1,100 deaths and serious injuries were recorded on Herts, Beds and Cambs's roads last year. Picture: Archant
Almost 22 people were killed or seriously injured each week on Herts, Beds and Cambs roads last year, according to new figures relased to mark the start of a campaign highlighting the dangers of speeding.
In total, 1,122 people were killed or seriously injured on our counties' roads between November 2018 and November 2019 - an average of 19.8 people being seriously injured and 1.7 people killed each week.
Broken down by force, there were 364 serious injuries and 34 fatalities recorded by Herts police. The Cambs force recorded 396 serious injuries and 36 fatalities. Beds Police had the lowest total, with 272 serious injuries and 20 fatalities over the period.
Ch Insp Jon Roche, head of roads policing for Herts, Cambs and Beds, said: "Too many lives are lost or changed forever as a result of speeding.
"The faster you drive, the less time you have to react and any mistake is amplified. Speed limits are in place for a reason.
"Never exceed the limit for the road you're on and please make sure your speed is appropriate for the driving conditions."


This happens every year like clockwork. If you've been around enough, it sort of feels like a broken record. We make the same goals year after year: lose weight, stop smoking, start working out, make more money, be a better parent, etc. I know, I've been there…repeating many of my same goals year after year.
With the arrival of a new year, the slate gets wiped clean. A new beginning, a great feeling. But change doesn't happen magically when the new year starts. It happens day to day, moment by moment.
Here's to making those day to day, moment by moment changes. Happy new day! Happy new minute!

Influential women across the world to be celebratedas part of BBC 100 Women Challenge
The BBC revealed some of the inspirational individuals who have been chosen for inclusion on the BBC 100 Women list 2017.
Taken from across all spheres of modern life – from engineering to the creative industries, from sport to business – they represent the global wealth of female talent. But in a new twist the list launched today is only part of the story.
The list has been inspired by the BBC 100 Women Challenge. New for 2017 this is a unique celebration of female talent which sees four teams of women tasked with finding solutions to everyday problems currently blighting female lives across the globe. From October 2nd – 6thwomen based in Silicon Valleywill tackle the glass ceiling;from October 9th -13th the Delhi team are looking at female illiteracy; from October 16th -20th safety on public transport will be the focus for the London and Nairobi team; and finally from October 23rd -27th women in Rio will consider sexism in sport.
Today 60 women who are working or campaigning in these fields or who have inspired others through their actions are being celebrated.
Astronaut Peggy Whitson (57) – Having made three trips to the International Space Station, Peggy has spent more time in space than any other United States astronaut.
President of Chile Michelle Bachelet (65) –The first female to hold office in the history of her country.

The remaining 40 places will then be decided as the challenge progresses, drawn from those who have supported, inspired and helped the teams on the ground over the course of the weeks. They might be someone working on a solution on the other side of the world; the woman who suggested the piece of code; the woman who named the campaign; or the woman who, by courageously sharing her story, inspired the solution.
The list of 60 women can be viewed here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-41380265.The complete list will then be revealed after the final challenge at the end of October.
As audience participation is a cornerstone of the challenge, there is opportunity for other inspiring women to be included. The teams will want to hear directly from women affected by the issues they are tackling and find out what solutions may have already been tried. Viewers and listeners will be able to get involved in via social media with @BBC100Women and #100Women, online at www.bbc.com/100women

ITV has refreshed its News at Ten identity in-house prior to its relaunch on Monday, as the BBC and ITV prepare to go head-to-head with their 10pm news bulletins.
The logo features Big Ben more prominently as 'it is instantly recognisable as the News at Ten', says ITN creative director Glenn Marshall.
It features the typeface Franklin, which is used across the ITV network's news programmes.
