Hauling two heavy satellites into orbit, Europe's Ariane 5 rocket checked off its fourth successful flight of the year on Wednesday, the 80th success in a row for the workhorse launcher in a streak that has been going since 2002. Hidden under the rocket's large fairing were the shared Inmarsat-S/HellasSat-3 satellite for TV distribution and aeronautical connectivity and India's GSAT-17 that will reinforce the country's communications infrastructure.
Making its third launch in eight weeks, the 55-meter tall Ariane 5 blasted off from the ELA-3 launch site at the Guiana Space Center at 21:15 UTC – rumbling off powered by its cryogenic core stage and twin boosters that did most of the work over the first two minutes of the rocket's trip across the Atlantic Ocean, heading straight east to reach a nearly ideal Geostationary Transfer Orbit with an inclination of three degrees. After the boosters dropped away 64 Kilometers in altitude, Ariane 5 relied on its core stage for another six and a half minutes before handing over to the ESC-A upper stage tasked with the final push into orbit via a 16-minute burn.
Having reached an injection speed of 9.3 Kilometers per second, Ariane 5 traded the power of its main engine for the precision of its orientation thrusters to send its two passengers on the way. First up was the Inmarsat-S/HellasSat-3 satellite that made its way into orbit atop the Sylda adapter that enables Ariane 5 to boost two sizeable spacecraft into orbit. Once the Sylda was dropped off, the way was clear for GSAT-17, the 21st Indian satellite lifted by Arianespace. The two were the 600th and 601st satellites launched by the French-based launch services provider.

Inmarsat-S/HellasSat-3 is a shared satellite by London-based mobile communications provider Inmarsat and Greek operator HellasSat, born out of Inmarsat's EuropaSat Project that stalled in 2009 and was revived five years later with plans for the condominium satellite. Per the agreement, the two project participants are splitting the cost for the satellite platform and its launch while each pays for their respective payload.
Based on Thales Alenia's Spacebus-4000C4 satellite platform, the craft stands 5.2 meters tall and weighs in at 5,780 Kilograms, featuring four large deployable antenna reflectors plus two parabolic antennas on the craft's Earth-facing deck.
The Inmarsat payload hosts a powerful S-Band terminal broadcasting in the 2GHz frequency band cleared for use through the European S-Band Application Process.

Three large S-Band beams cover the entire European Union plus Norway and Switzerland, delivering in-flight connectivity to airline passengers as part of Inmarsat's European Aviation Network that comprises Inmarsat-S as central space segment, a network of around 300 4G ground sites and airborne terminals on aircraft that automatically switch between capacity from ground stations and the satellite – creating a system that should provide users with high-quality, robust Internet services during their time aloft.
The approach of a combined SATCOM and terrestrial system was chosen to meet high demand over heavily-trafficked air routes near Europe's major cities and aeronautical hubs. In essence, the satellite is in charge of covering wide areas for cruising planes while the ground-based system delivers high capacity to localized areas of increased demand.
The Hellas Sat segment of the satellite carries 47 Ku-Band and one Ka-Band transponders. The Ku-Band payload is primarily geared towards TV distribution with coverage over Europe to serve the company's current user base that is presently served by a capacity from the 14-year old HellasSat-2 with 44 Ku-Band and one Ka-Band transponder. Two additional coverage zones over the Middle East and Southern Africa will allow the ArabSat subsidiary to tap into new markets with HD and Ultra-HD services.
The multi-beam Ka-band payload is commissioned to provide capacity for broadband and business networks.
Destined for an orbital location of 39 degrees East, the condo satellite was initially planned to launch atop a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket in 2016, but persistent delays to the heavy-lifter's debut mission prompted a switch to Ariane 5. Inmarsat lauded Arianespace's ability to provide an extremely fast turnaround of seven months between the satellite's addition to Ariane's manifest and launch.
India's GSAT-17 weighed in at 3,477 Kilograms and continued a long-standing partnership between the Indian Space Research Organization and Arianespace upon which ISRO relied for the majority of satellites that could not be launched from India. With recent successes by India's GSLV rocket family, ISRO hopes to launch more and more satellites from Indian soil and eventually end its reliance on outside launch services providers altogether.
Designed for a 15-year service life, GSAT-17 is tipping the scales as India's heaviest satellite to date, employing the I-3K satellite bus that is fitted with 38 C-Band transponders and two pairs of S/C and C/S up-down transponders for mobile connectivity. The satellite will ensure a continuation of operational services while also providing extension coverage to satisfy an ever growing demand for telecommunications services. Augmentation is provided for existing telecommunication, television and VSAT services. Also installed on the satellite is one dedicated transponder for Data Relay (DRT) and Search and Rescue (SAR) services.
>>GSAT-17 Satellite Overview
The launch of GSAT-17 capped a very busy month for ISRO that saw the successful first all-up launch of its GSLV Mk. III heavy-lift rocket with GSAT-19 and the launch of 31 satellites atop a Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle last week.
The Ariane 5 VA238 launch campaign was characterized as very smooth following arrival of the launch vehicle components in mid-May and the two satellites by the end of last month. Operations continued running smoothly when the integrated Ariane 5 was moved to the ELA-3 launch complex on Tuesday for final preparations for an 11-hour and 43-minute countdown that picked up at 9:36 UTC on Wednesday.
After power-up at L-10 hours, Ariane 5 went through detailed checkouts that provided a clean bill of health to the vehicle in order for the propellant loading process to be started. Tanking picked up on the first stage around 4 hours and 38 minutes prior to launch and 50 minutes later on the second stage to load Ariane 5 with 184 metric tons of supercold Liquid Oxygen and Liquid Hydrogen Propellant. Standing fully fueled, Ariane 5 underwent final preparatory steps for its fast-paced automatic countdown sequence while the two passengers made their transition to battery power for the ride into orbit.
Ariane 5 entered the T-7-minute Synchronized Sequence after a brief delay due to ground systems readiness with computers taking over control to move the vehicle through a long list of steps to transition Ariane 5 to an autonomous launch configuration. The launcher finished topping up its tanks and entered pressurization, switched to internal power, and configured its Flight Control System for blastoff with handoff to the vehicle just seconds before liftoff.
The trusted Vulcain 2 engine came to life when clocks reached zero, soaring to a launch thrust of nearly 100 metric ton force under close supervision by computers that ensured the engine was up and running before committing to flight via the ignition of the boosters at 21:15:07 UTC.
Jumping off from its launch pad on the edge of the Amazon jungle, Ariane 5 had a thrust equivalent to ten Airbus A380s running at full power. Riding on pillars of fire and smoke, Ariane 5 pitched and rolled onto a due easterly departure path for a quick flight across the Atlantic Ocean, heading towards the sunset.
The twin EAP boosters did most of the work in the initial flight phase, contributing the majority to Ariane's total launch thrust of around 1,420 metric-ton-force – helping accelerate the launcher beyond the speed of sound just 49 seconds into the flight. Ariane 5 encountered Maximum Dynamic Pressure shortly after T+1-minute when passing 13 Kilometers in altitude.
The two boosters, each consuming some 237 metric tons of propellant, finished their job at T+2 minutes and 19 seconds, helping accelerate Ariane 5 to over 2 Kilometers per second. Burnout of the boosters was sensed by their declining chamber pressure, triggering pyrotechnics to separate the boosters and separation motors to push them away from the still-firing core stage 65 Kilometers in altitude.

Now only relying on its Vulcain engine, Ariane 5 continued towards orbit with a vacuum thrust of 136,600 Kilogram-force, tasked with accelerating the vehicle by another five Kilometers per second before handing over to the upper stage. Passing 112 Kilometers in altitude at T+3 minutes and 16 seconds, Ariane 5 split open its Swiss-built payload fairing and separated the 17-meter long halves as aerodynamic forces were no longer a danger to the payloads. Separation of the fairing revealed the Inmarsat/Hellas Sat spacecraft while GSAT-17 remained hidden under the Sylda adapter for the duration of powered flight.
The first stage exhausted its supply of cryogenics eight minutes and 52 seconds into the flight when it shut down its Vulcain 2 engine, having reached a sub-orbital speed of 6.95 Kilometers per second. Four seconds later – passing through 180 Kilometers in altitude – the 30.5-meter core stage dropped away and cleared the ESC-A upper stage to take over powered flight duties.
The 6,400-Kilogram-force HM-7B engine of the second stage fired up just past T+9 minutes on a burn of 16 minutes and two seconds to provide another 2.4 Kilometers per second of delta-v to achieve the planned GTO injection speed of 9.33km/s. Initially focusing on building speed, Ariane 5 passed its minimum altitude of 156 Kilometers 15 minutes into the flight, from then on headed uphill to drop the satellites off in a highly elliptical orbit.
Ariane 5 aimed for an optimized Geostationary Transfer Orbit of 250 by 35,786 Kilometers at an inclination of only 3 degrees – taking advantage of French Guiana's low latitude plus surplus performance on the Ariane 5 to shave another few degrees off the inclination.
Ariane 5 was carrying a total payload mass of 10,177 Kilograms on Wednesday, successfully accomplishing its planned orbital injection 25 minutes after lifting off when the vehicle had already reached Africa's west coast.

After a smooth climb, Ariane 5 traded the power of its main engine to the precision of its attitude control thrusters for the ballistic phase designed to carefully deploy the satellites on safe orbital paths.
Springs pushed the heavy Inmarsat-S/HellasSat-3 on its way 28 minutes after launch, embarking on ten days of orbit raising and several weeks of commissioning, handled by Thales Alenia Space before the two operators can begin offering services through the spacecraft. ESC-A moved into a different attitude for the jettisoning of the Sylda Adapter at T+30 minutes to reveal the GSAT-17 satellite for its separation, coming after another nine minutes of coasting. GSAT-17 will complete several firings of its Liquid Apogee motor to take up station at 93.5° East from where it can cover the Indian subcontinent.
For Ariane 5, the mission ended with the usual twenty-minute passivation sequence that included spinning the stage up, venting down all tanks and powering off onboard systems.
Wednesday's launch marked the 238th flight of an Ariane rocket in a program dating back to 1979, it was the 94th for an Ariane 5 and the 63rd in the ECA configuration. For Arianespace, the next mission is coming up on August 2 when a Vega rocket will lift a French-Israeli environmental monitoring satellite and a high-resolution imaging satellite for the Italian Defence Ministry. Ariane 5 will next see action in late August when lifting the Intelsat 37e and BSat-4 communications satellites.

Xbox One To Windows 10 Streaming Is Live
By Simone de RochefortJuly 20, 2015One Comment
Red alert, Xbox One owners! If you're in the Windows 10 beta, you can now start streaming games between the Xbox One and Windows 10 devices.
Windows 10 will launch for everyone on July 29 (not a moment too soon, says this Windows 8 user). It's a free upgrade for anyone using Windows 7 or Windows 8.1. With Windows 10, Microsoft hopes to wash away the bad taste left by Windows 8, as well as allow a cohesive experience for users across all Windows 10 devices. For Xbox One owners, this means more accessible social media and sharing capabilities—not just for game content, but for games themselves.
You can now stream your Xbox One games to your Windows 10 PC. This news post on Xbox.com explains how to get it all set up. Microsoft will be rolling out more updates leading up to the official launch of Windows 10.
One of the features of this latest update is called Day One Experience, and it's exactly what you need if you're new to the Xbox One. This feature walks you through the process of making your Xbox Live account, from creating your gamertag to finding games. This is a great idea for people who've never owned a console before. And since the Xbox One is our favorite for motion gaming, I think it's great that they're including this to make it just a little easier for families to get started gaming together.
Also in beta is the Party Chat function, which lets you easily initiate a group chat with your friends on the Xbox One.
You can check out the full list of new features and how to implement them at Xbox's website.
We've written before about how great video-game streaming can be for families. For example, if you're a parent who wants to play an M-rated game without projecting it on the TV for all to see, it's great to be able to stream that game to a private screen like a tablet, or a PC in another room. Conversely, if your kid wants to play a game but you're using the TV yourself, they can benefit from game-streaming. If you have a PlayStation 4 and a PlayStation Vita, the Remote Play ability is hopefully something you've already tried.

Friday, I received an early Valentine notice from the U.S. Postal Service, saying that they will close the Hawleyville branch as of Feb. 14.
What was the post office motto? We deliver? No, they do not deliver anything but aggravation to the customers and employees of Hawleyville.
After many years of hemming and hawing, the bureaucrats have decided that they cannot come to terms with the Housatonic Railroad and they "don't have the funds" to move into the new facility being built across the tracks.
Driving to the post office on Commerce Road in Newtown is not an option for me. I will open a box in Bethel, which is the same distance from my home as Hawleyville.
Sadly, I will say farewell to the postal workers at Hawleyville -- Mark, Rich, and Laura -- and to my box of 18 years.
Thanks to Congressman Chris Murphy and his staff for trying their best.

Shortly after this broadcast, convicted-felon Ralph Spinelli approached police and offered to name the Zodiac killer if authorities would drop the charges he faced for armed robbery that could lead to decades in prison. The man Spinelli named was infamous suspect Arthur Leigh Allen, who — at the time — worked in a hardware store in Northern California.
Still At Large: LA Ch.4 News – Harvey Hines and Larry Kane – This broadcast, aired on Los Angeles television channel 4, focused on retired police officer and Zodiac theorist Harvey Hines. Convinced he had identified the Zodiac, Hines accused "Larry Kane" of the infamous unsolved murders.
A CURRENT AFFAIR: Branded A Butcher (with Arthur Leigh Allen) – Arthur Leigh Allen, the "prime suspect" in the unsolved "Zodiac" murders, was interviewed on the popular tabloid television program "A Current Affair." Appearing in silhouette, Allen denied the accusation that he was California's most notorious serial killer. Highlights included appearances by Pam Huckaby (sister of Zodiac victim Darlene Ferrin), Captain Roy Conway (Vallejo Police Department), William Beeman (author of Jack the Zodiac), and Harry Martin (publisher of The Napa Sentinel).
Arthur Leigh Allen: Local News + Fact vs. Fiction – This local news broadcast features the first public appearance by the "prime suspect" in the unsolved "Zodiac" murders – Arthur Leigh Allen. Filmed before his death in 1992, this segment also features clips from the so-called "Zodiac Conference" and comments from the "expert" panel – author Robert Graysmith (Zodiac), Captain Roy Conway and retired detective George Bawart (Vallejo Police Department). – Also included: A brief "Fact vs. Fiction" examination of the broadcast.
NOW IT CAN BE TOLD: Part 1 * Part 2 * Part 3 – Celebrity reporter Geraldo Rivera and his team of investigative journalists examined the Zodiac mystery in two episodes of the tabloid television show NOW IT CAN BE TOLD. The program focused on the life and death of victim Darlene Ferrin and featured reporter Dave Peterson, former Vallejo police officer Steve Baldino, and detectives Ed Rust and John Lynch of the Vallejo Police Department. Others appearing in the show include Darlene's sister Pam, satanic conspiracy theorist and author Maury Terry (The Ultimate Evil), and suspect Arthur Leigh Allen. The episode claimed that evidence indicated that Darlene Ferrin had known her killer and that a satanic cult may have been responsible for the Zodiac crimes. Two years before the NOW segments aired, Geraldo Rivera produced the now-infamous television special titled DEVIL WORSHIP: EXPOSING SATAN'S UNDERGROUND, which suggested that satanic cult activity was behind many violent crimes in America.
HARD COPY: Tracking the Zodiac Killer – This segment of the popular tabloid television program focused on the unsolved "Zodiac" murders. Retired police officer Harvery Hines became convinced that the had identified the notorious killer as "Larry Kane." Hines' suspect was identified by possible Zodiac victim Kathleen Johns. In 1970, Johns claimed that she had escaped from the killer during a failed abduction attempt yet many investigators and researchers question whether she had, in fact, encountered the Zodiac, and some even suggested that she had invented the story. [Johns tale was featured in the 2007 film ZODIAC.] Police briefly investigated and cleared Larry Kane as a suspect, but Hines remained convinced "with every fiber" of his being that his suspect was the Zodiac.
UNSOLVED MYSTERIES with Robert Stack: This episode of the classic mystery series examines the theory that the Zodiac was Ted Kaczynski aka The Unabomber. Includes interviews with theorists Doug Oswell and Michael Rusconi, Dr. Michael Rustigan, and others. Originally broadcast on NBC in 1998.
ROBERT GRAYSMITH: Ashley Banfield – On Location – Author Robert Graysmith (Zodiac and Zodiac Unmasked) appears on the MSNBC program "Ashley Banfield: On Location" to discuss the "D.C. Sniper" and Zodiac cases. Graysmith offers his usual blend of fact and fiction.
ROBERT GRAYSMITH: The Abrams Report – Author Robert Graysmith appears on the MSNBC program "The ABRAMS Report" to discuss the "D.C. Sniper" case and the unsolved Zodiac murders. Graysmith offers his usual blend of fact and fiction when discussing the Zodiac's methods and motives and bends the truth regarding his suspect, Arthur Leigh Allen.


Joseph Stack Suicide Note - Manifesto from Texas Plane Crash Suspect?
What is said to be a "suicide note" and a bit of a manifesto and rambling rant against much of the US government, including the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) is online, said to be written by Joseph Stack, a man identified as the suspect in the small plane crash in Texas.
Was it intentional? Many news outlets are speculating as much. This much is known, authorities responded Thursday morning in Austin where the plane had crashed into the Echelon building. Heavy smoke could be seen coming from the building at 9420 Research Boulevard.
That particular building houses 190 IRS employees and the last note that is said to be from the pilot directs serious anger towards the government. Witnesses say the plane was flying low and fast and appeared to be in control and others said it was full throttle when it hit.
Is it a suicide note? The Smoking Gun website reports the diatribe as a manifesto, and has that six-page note here (http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2010/0218102stack1.html) and adds it is dated "2/18/10" and is signed "Joe Stack (1956-2010).
One person is said to still be missing in the aftermath of the crash.
Posting rages at IRS, claims, "I have had all I can stand"
How soon before Mr. Stack becomes the official Tea Party martyr?
NH: Did you see that Stack was a disgruntled Engineer?
I thought that all sounded too suspcious to be an accident.
Those fearful Domestic Terrorists are where the immediate threat lies.
How will this effect the upcoming Texas elections?
Only diffence is in this one, not as many people were killed.
In fact, in the areal photo, the structure almost has the shape of the Pentagon!
Equally significant is Barstow's finding that most Tea Party groups have no affiliation with the G.O.P. despite the party's ham-handed efforts to co-opt them. The more we learn about the Tea Partiers, the more we can see why. They loathe John McCain and the free-spending, TARP-tainted presidency of George W. Bush. They really do hate all of Washington, and if they hate Obama more than the Republican establishment, it's only by a hair or two. (Were Obama not earning extra demerits in some circles for his race, it might be a dead heat.) The Tea Partiers want to eliminate most government agencies, starting with the Fed and the I.R.S., and end spending on entitlement programs. They are not to be confused with the Party of No holding forth in Washington — a party that, after all, is now positioning itself as a defender of Medicare spending. What we are talking about here is the Party of No Government at All.
The distinction between the Tea Party movement and the official G.O.P. is real, and we ignore it at our peril. While Washington is fixated on the natterings of Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, Michael Steele and the presumed 2012 Republican presidential front-runner, Mitt Romney, these and the other leaders of the Party of No are anathema or irrelevant to most Tea Partiers. Indeed, McConnell, Romney and company may prove largely irrelevant to the overall political dynamic taking hold in America right now. The old G.O.P. guard has no discernible national constituency beyond the scattered, often impotent remnants of aging country club Republicanism. The passion on the right has migrated almost entirely to the Tea Party's counterconservatism.
The leaders embraced by the new grass roots right are a different slate entirely: Glenn Beck, Ron Paul and Sarah Palin. Simple math dictates that none of this trio can be elected president. As George F. Will recently pointed out, Palin will not even be the G.O.P. nominee "unless the party wants to lose at least 44 states" (as it did in Barry Goldwater's 1964 Waterloo). But these leaders do have a consistent ideology, and that ideology plays to the lock-and-load nutcases out there, not just to the peaceable (if riled up) populist conservatives also attracted to Tea Partyism. This ideology is far more troubling than the boilerplate corporate conservatism and knee-jerk obstructionism of the anti-Obama G.O.P. Congressional minority.
In the heyday of 1960s left-wing radicalism, no liberal Democratic politicians in Washington could be found endorsing groups preaching violent revolution. The right has a different history. In the months before McVeigh's mass murder, Helen Chenoweth and Steve Stockman, then representing Idaho and Texas in Congress, publicly empathized with the conspiracy theories of the far right that fueled his anti-government obsessions.
This story is such a tragedy, I wish the best to the families whom lost their loved ones and I am sure the suicider's family is also heartbroken. Now I feel only people who have employment should get taxed, not people who has no employment.
Good point, and it also resemble the Pentagon because of it's proximity to the Highway but this is not because of nation-2-nation problems, it is person-2-IRS problem.
Taxation on things like Medicare, Welfare or Unemployment has never made any sense.
Hell, taxation on LOTTERY WINNINGS does not either (you pay post tax, a portion of that money goes towards another intitution like education, then you have to pay tax on it again if you win?), but that is just a drop in the bucket compared to other things.
Back on topic. This guy was a genuine nutcase. Running a small plane into the side of a building will do nothing but force more spending, now on IRS buildings, against "terrorist attacks". His misguided act will cost us all more money now, the opposite of what he intended or wanted.

Deploy: sudo docker stack deploy --with-registry-auth --compose-file docker-compose.yml mongo
I initiated replica set of config server and shard servers. I added shards to mongos. When I put data in the database, sharing is happening among shard servers.
I have done this without authentication. Everything is going well.
But when I try to add authentication I am failing to do.
Steps followed to enable authentication on MongoDB cluster in docker swarm:
Step1: Created required data folders and generated key file and copied this key file to each node.
Step2: Deployed stack file in docker swarm without the key file.
Step3: Initiated config server and shard servers replica set.
Step4: Added users to the mongos, config servers and shard servers.
Step5: Changed the ownership of key file and mongod.conf file in each container.
Ex:sudo docker exec  bash -c 'chown -R mongodb:mongodb /srv/mongodb-keyfile /etc/mongod.conf'
Step6: Deployed docker-compose.yml (updated) again in docker swarm with the second command (With key fie). [It runs all containers with key file]
Step7: When I try to add shards to the mongos, I am getting error
mongos> sh.addShard("s3-r3/shard1-repl3:27017")
{
        "code" : 133,
        "ok" : 0,
        "errmsg" : "could not find host matching read preference { mode: \"primary\" } for set s3-r3"
}

I have setup authentication on nodes(without docker). It's working there properly.
Edit: If I add shards to mongos before authentication then sharding is not happening. All the data is going to only one shard (Eg: s3-r3).
logs of other shards (services):

A: As per MongoDB BOL Here Use the sh.addShard() method to add each shard to the cluster. If the shard is a replica set, specify the name of the replica set and specify a member of the set. In production deployments, all shards should be replica sets.
The following operation adds a single shard replica set to the cluster:
sh.addShard( "<replSetName>/s1-mongo1.example.net:27017")

The following operation is an example of adding a standalone mongod shard to the cluster:
sh.addShard( "s1-mongo1.example.net:27017")

Repeat these steps until the cluster includes all shards.
Enable Sharding for a Database
To proceed, you must be connected to a mongos associated to the target sharded cluster.
Before you can shard a collection, you must enable sharding for the collection's database. Enabling sharding for a database does not redistribute data but make it possible to shard the collections in that database.
Once you enable sharding for a database, MongoDB assigns a primary shard for that database where MongoDB stores all data in that database.
Use the sh.enableSharding() method to enable sharding on the target database.
sh.enableSharding("<database>")

Charles Arthur Binyon, OBE (1874-1963)
Although at one time it seemed unlikely that I should ever make a living out of gardening, the decision to have an open air life was the best thing that could have happened. I feel it is owing to Divine Providence that it was taken. Things looked bleakest about my 21st birthday, and began to mend when I went to Badsey.
[Charles Binyon Autobiographical Notes]
Charles Arthur Binyon, still remembered affectionately as "Mr Binyon" by many older members of the village, arrived in Badsey as a young man of 25 in the summer of 1899. For the next 60 years plus, he devoted his life to market gardening and the welfare of the people of Badsey and the Vale of Evesham.
We are grateful to Edmund Gray of Oxford, great-nephew of Charles Binyon, for allowing us access to the archive and for permitting the digital images to be reproduced here.
Charles Binyon was born at Burton in Lonsdale, Yorkshire, on 9th March 1874, the son of the Reverend Frederick Binyon and his wife, Mary. His brother Laurence was the poet, and his brother Gilbert was for some years Vicar of Hinton-on-the-Green.
Charles went for a short time to St Paul's School where he was a contemporary of G K Chesterton. As a boy, he wanted to be an architect, but an illness during his schooldays caused his doctor to order an outdoor career as the only way of saving his health. Whilst in Devon, he met the young Will Churchill and decided to start market gardening in the Vale of Evesham. William Henry Churchill and Binyon were partners in market gardening in the 1890s and early 1900s, and lifelong friends.
Binyon's achievements in Badsey and the surrounding area were many:
First elected Manager of Badsey School in 1902 and continued until 1961, for 30 years as Chairman
Elected Badsey member of the Evesham Rural District Council in 1904, becoming Chairman in 1922, re-elected continuously until he retired in 1949
Littleton & Badsey Growers, President until 1956, but remained on the Executive Committee to advise them
45 years on Badsey Parish Council, Chairman for 27 years (during that time, over 1000 council houses were built and a reputation gained for enlightened rural government)
A member of the bench at Evesham Magistrates' Court for over 30 years and Chairman for several years
Member of the Evesham Rural District Military Tribunal during the First World War
Treasurer of the Parochial Church Council
Trustee of the Badsey & Aldington Bread Charity
Author of "Notes on Badsey and its Church", which is still on sale in the church
A member of Badsey Bell-Ringers for over half a century
Custodian of the Church clock
He received the Order of the British Empire in the Birthday Honours of 1950, in recognition of his 27 years' chairmanship of the Rural District Council.
Charles Binyon was a humble man, who for many years lived in rented rooms at the Caves' house, Sandford Villa, on Badsey Fields Lane, and then in a room at the Vicarage. He took great pleasure in cultivating his piece of land. An article in The Evesham Journal of February 1938 said:
He has always lived in a most humble manner and it is by the charm of his personality, his capacity for friendliness, his interest in his fellows, his broadmindedness and kind-heartedness … that he has endeared himself to his fellow men and obtained their affection, confidence and loyalty … Possessing sympathy, understanding and a true sense of humour, he is the same to all men, be they of high or low estate … His influence for good over a long period of years on many of the youths of the village which he has for so many years made his home is incalculable. He has, during their impressionable years, turned their minds into channels which, apart from him, they would never have discovered … It would not be too much to say that, by precept and example, he has led them, almost unconsciously, in the paths of right conduct … We have long known and respected Mr Binyon, and what we write about him we know to be the simple and unvarnished truth. His public work is known to all, but the quiet and unostentatious influence for good which he exerts among those with whom he comes into personal contact is known to the latter only.
Charles Binyon died on 11th February 1963 at Avonside Hospital, Evesham. The following year, the Garden of Rest in Badsey Churchyard was dedicated in his memory.

Should Jim Bob Cooter be fired if Detroit Lions can't fix offense?
Detroit Lions might have to fire Jim Bob Cooter, whose offense is regressing midway through a disappointing season. In the NFL, someone always pays.
The NFL is a punitive league. And if there's one law in a punitive league, it's this: Someone has to pay.
Late for a meeting: You get fined.
Play football too aggressively: You get fined.
Someone always has to pay.
And the ultimate payment in the NFL is the cost of losing your job. That payment might be coming due for Lions offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter.
The Lions' offense was supposed to be the strength of this team after finishing 13th overall and seventh in scoring last year, which is part of why Cooter and most of his staff weren't fired after last season. But the offense has been inconsistent and underwhelming so far this season.
Sunday at Minnesota, the offense never reached the end zone and mustered just nine points. Playing at home the previous week against Seattle, the Lions scored 14 points with a lipstick-on-the-pig touchdown in the fourth quarter.
That's two games, two touchdowns and 23 points. Before that, the offense lit up the Miami Dolphins and the Green Bay Packers, scoring at least 30 points in each game. But where has that offense gone? Yes, Seattle and Minnesota have very good defenses. But that can't be an excuse for the offense to show such little life and go almost entirely limp.
The offense not only has failed to measure up, but it has been surpassed by the defense. After Sunday, the Lions had the NFL's 18th-ranked defense. The offense ranked 21st overall (20th in scoring at 22.5 points per game), which is on the edge of being among the NFL's bottom third.
The reality is the Lions are 3-5 at the midway point of the season, and someone has to pay.
Cooter hasn't been an abject failure. Quarterback Matthew Stafford is actually having a statistically typical year. The run game has vastly improved from recent seasons. But if someone has to pay, the most likely candidate would be Cooter, because he's struggling and because he's the highest-profile holdover from Jim Caldwell's regime.
If the offense continues to struggle — which is very likely in the next four games against the Chicago Bears, Carolina Panthers, the Bears again and the L.A. Rams — how long are general manager Bob Quinn and coach Matt Patricia going to stick with Cooter and possibly allow the floundering offense to sink the whole ship?
Since Patricia was hired, I always thought Cooter was living on borrowed time. I think he always has been destined for replacement by Patricia. And if Stafford had not lobbied for Cooter to retain his job, I think Patricia would have fired Cooter and hired his own guy. And that's really what should have happened. Instead, Quinn and Patricia made a savvy political choice. They appeased Stafford and kept Cooter as a built-in fall guy.
They already have a ready-made replacement for Cooter in George Godsey, who was a Lions defensive assistant last year and became the quarterbacks coach this year. Godsey was the Houston Texans' offensive coordinator from 2015-16. His offense wasn't impressive, but he has ties to Quinn and Patricia after being the New England Patriots' offensive assistant and tight ends coach from 2011-13.
Last year, Cooter admitted that trying to run an offense without a good run game was like trying to "punch one-handed." Cooter finally got the run game going this year with Kerryon Johnson. But when Quinn traded Golden Tate, he effectively cut off one of Cooter's legs. Try winning a fight hopping around on one leg. It's a very big deal.
Firing Cooter won't fix everything, if anything at all.. It's also probably not fair to lay so much blame on one person. But making someone pay is part of life in the NFL, and maybe that's the harshest reality of all.

Handset subsidies to still haunt telcos
Mobile operators will have to take a short-term profit with handset subsidies as more products come online to retain customers, but they can recoup losses via mobile data services.
By Ryan Huang | October 19, 2012 -- 10:42 GMT (03:42 PDT) | Topic: Telcos
Telcos will have little choice but to take a short-term profit hit to provide handset subsidies, even as phonemakers unveil their latest products. In turn, operators should look to recouping their loss from other data-related value-added services.
The impact of handset subsidies on telcos was reflected earlier this week when Singapore operator M1 reported a 20 percent drop in net profit for its third quarter, which it largely blamed on the higher subsidies. The three months ended Sep. 30 saw the launch of handsets such as Apple's iPhone 5 in September, and Samsung's S3 at the start of June.
Going forward, other telcos are expected to also feel the pinch in their earnings for the rest of the year.
Another Singapore telco StarHub is already bracing for the hit. Chan Kin Hung, head of marketing and products at StarHub, said: "We definitely have factored in the softening of margin for our fourth quarter results."
He added this was the key reason why the company had guided for a lower profit margin of about 30 percent compared with 32 percent for the first half of the year. It was also mindful of the popularity of Apple's iPhone 5, Samsung Galaxy S3 and Note II, and other mobile devices.
Price-cut war unlikely
That said, one industry watcher believed in saturated mobile markets such as Singapore, telcos are unlikely to deep digger and engage in a handset subsidy war .
Kelvin Goh, analyst at CIMB Research, said while telcos here recognize the importance of offering handset subsidies, there is little to be gained by price-cutting. "No subsidy war is on the horizon with rational pricing and subsidies by all three [Singapore] telcos."
These telcos are probably aware of the smartphone market saturation, and any average revenue per user (ARPU) uplift from doling out more subsidies was unlikely to be significant, Goh added.
He expects increased handset sales during the end-of-year holiday season and upcoming phone launches will have additional impact on the telcos' margins.
Agreeing, Chan said the more expensive smartphones mean telcos will take a longer period to recover the costs as compared to entry-level smartphones and feature phones.
"We certainly hope the wholesale costs of smart devices will fall over time as the smartphone market becomes more competitive with the introduction of more smartphone models by various handset makers," he added.
Based on his knowledge, Goh said the subsidy and payback period for Apple's iPhone 5 is almost the same as that of its predecessor, iPhone 4S, which amounted to around 6 to 8 months.
In dollar value, Barclays analyst James Ratcliffe said the subsidy for Apple handsets is typically some US$400, while other smartphones range between US$250 and US$300.
Subsidies to continue
Despite the short-term profit loss, mobile operators will not be able to cut back too much on subsidies or they may risk losing customers, said Pradeep Singh, analyst at Itim Research.
"This is especially important for markets where 4G adoption is kicking off, and operators have a window to secure customers onto contracts and generate returns from their increased data usage," Singh added.
He said this meant operators in these markets would likely be willing to sacrifice some profit in the short run to gain in the longer term.
Sachin Mittal, vice president of DBS Vickers, added as data usage rises over time, ARPUs will rise accordingly as more users will be compelled to upgrade to higher-value subscription plans.
Citing Singapore as an example, Mittal said the ongoing 4G rollout in the city-state means more subscribers are renewing or signing up for new postpaid plans. These plans come with reduced data bundles of between 2 gigabyte (GB) and 12GB, down from the 12GB limit for all plans previously, he added.

Minnesota teenager hopes bone marrow transplant will cure her blood disorder
News and Stories Home
Health and Living
"We know that the stem cells found in bone marrow, peripheral blood and cord blood have great potential."
Imani Cornelius, 15, came to University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital for a bone marrow transplant after she was diagnosed with myelodyspastic syndrome (MDS).
August 17, 2015 | By Staff Writer
A nondescript bag of red fluid hung next to 15-year-old Imani Cornelius as she lay in her hospital bed. Her parents sat nearby, chatting about Imani's future soccer seasons at Shakopee High School.
This plain-looking fluid, however, was far from ordinary.
It contained bone marrow donated by a complete stranger, who wanted to help Imani overcome myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The disease limited her ability to create healthy blood cells and, worse yet, could morph into an aggressive form of leukemia at any time.
As her parents discussed her high school soccer career, thousands of stem cells derived from the donor's marrow were coursing through Imani's IV as part of a stem cell transplantation. Imami's care team and family members hope the new stem cells will rebuild her immune system and cure her MDS.
"We know that the stem cells found in bone marrow, peripheral blood and cord blood have great potential for rebuilding of blood-forming and immune system," said Pediatric Hematologist/Oncologist Jakub Tolar, MD, PhD.
Tolar is the director of the Stem Cell Institute at the University of Minnesota, and a member of its Pediatric Blood and Marrow Transplantation team, which pioneered the bone marrow transplant procedure in 1968. "They're the building blocks of regenerative medicine and our research is now showing how best to use these stem cell sources for transplantation in patients like Imani."
When she was 9 years old, Imani started to get patches of dry, itchy skin. Dermatologists thought that it was psoriasis, but no treatments curbed her symptoms. After numerous unsuccessful prescriptions, dermatologists ordered a blood test, which led to the discovery of Imani's pre-leukemic disorder.
The only hope for a cure was a bone marrow transplant. Like many other patients, Imani did not have a match within her family. Instead, she needed to find a suitable donor on the national Be The Match Registry.
"Out of 11 million people, she didn't even have one matching donor, so we did everything we could to raise awareness about bone marrow donation," said Tammy Berndt, Imani's mother. "We knew that somewhere out there, someone could donate to Imani. And, when we found them, there would be some of the best doctors ready to take care of her at University of Minnesota."
Learn more about pediatric blood and marrow transplantation at University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital.
Patients are most likely to find a matching donor in someone with similar ethnic heritage. But, for mixed-race patients like Imani, the odds of finding a match are more difficult. Just 4 percent of the 11 million people listed on the registry are mixed-race.
After six long years, the family finally found a suitable match that could provide a potential cure for her condition. Tolar and his colleagues at University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital determined an ideal radiation-chemotherapy regimen to prepare her for the procedure.
After two hours had passed, the life-giving bag of bone marrow was empty and the stem cell transplantation was complete.
Physically, Imani didn't feel any different, though the stem cells were already starting the rebuilding process. Emotionally, however, she was grateful for her care providers at the hospital and the stranger who gave her a new lease.
"You can't describe it," she said. "That bag of someone else's bone marrow becomes a part of you. You can only say 'thank you.' That's it – thank you."
Imani will remain in the hospital for about six weeks. After that, she'll return multiple times each week for follow up appointments to make sure her body is accepting the donor's marrow. By next year, her parents hope they won't be talking about soccer in the hospital; they'd much rather be watching Imani play on the field.

Rappahannock Club
At Home with RWC
Amateur Radio Club Open House
In 2017, a new resident, Mr. Jeff Walker, brought his lifelong hobby of amateur radio to RWC. He asked if there would be interest in forming an amateur radio club for residents and community members. From that conversation the path to the Rappahannock Westminster-Canterbury Amateur Radio Club was set. An exploratory meeting of those interested was held October 10, 2017, and it was agreed that there was sufficient interest to ask the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for recognition and licensure as an amateur radio club. On October 24, 2017, the RWC Amateur Radio Club was officially licensed by the FCC. Subsequently the Club applied for a special call sign, N4RWC, which was granted. The Club, which includes resident and community members, meets monthly. Largely through donations of equipment and funds, the Club has obtained radio equipment and antennas to outfit a functional "radio shack" in the Life Enrichment Center. There is good reason to believe we have the first amateur radio club based in a community such as ours in Virginia. A presentation at the ROMEOs/OWLETs breakfast on August 2nd, displays, and an Open House on August 13th will highlight the world of amateur radio at RWC and beyond during August.
Enjoy each day in August and all RWC has to offer!

Author: Tien Ming Lim, Dermatology Registrar, Greenlane Hospital, Auckland, New Zealand, 2012.
Osteoma cutis refers to bone formation within the skin. The bony tissue usually start in a focus of calcification, from an inflammatory scar or granuloma. Osteoma cutis is not cancerous.
Osteoma cutis is one variant of heterotopic bone formation, meaning bone that grows in soft tissue.
How common is osteoma cutis?
Osteoma cutis is rare and does not appear to have any particular racial or sexual predominance. It can occur at any age.
Osteomas are frequently small and unnoticed, as they usually occur deep in the dermis or in the subcutaneous tissue. If detected, they feel stone-hard. They may present as single or multiple tumours.
They can develop anywhere but the face, the extremities, the scalp, the digits and the subungual regions are the most commonly affected sites.
The exact reason for bone formation within the skin is not well understood. The process is called osteoblastic metaplasia and is due to dermal fibroblasts changing into the cells that form bone (osteoblasts).
Primary osteoma cutis, meaning it occurs without underlying cause, is rare. At least 80% of lesions are secondary to other conditions and syndromes.
How does osteoma cutis differ from calcinosis cutis?
Calcinosis cutis differs from osteoma cutis as osteoma cutis represents bone formation whereas calcinosis cutis represents calcium salt deposits.
How is osteoma cutis diagnosed?
The diagnosis of osteoma cutis is usually made clinically, as the nodules are bony hard. However, osteoma cutis may be revealed by an X-ray, even when unnoticed by the affected individual.
Serum calcium and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels can help in identifying Albright hereditary osteodystrophy.
If removed surgically, the biopsy will reveal bone within the skin or fatty tissue.
What is the treatment for osteoma cutis?
The bony nodule may be cut out (excised) or removed by laser ablation, if causing symptoms.

Treaty push during Melbourne march celebrating indigenous culture
July 5, 2019 — 7.12pm
Hundreds of Victorians have marched through Melbourne to celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and to push for greater recognition.
The crowd carried signs, flags and banners from Fitzroy to Federation Square on Friday, stopping for speeches outside parliament and a traditional smoking ceremony on Swanston Street.

The rally is part of NAIDOC Week, beginning Sunday, to celebrate indigenous history and achievements.
This year's theme - Voice. Treaty. Truth. - acknowledges that indigenous people have always wanted an enhanced role in decision-making in Australia's democracy, NAIDOC says.
"For generations, we have sought recognition of our unique place in Australian history and society today," the National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee said.
"We need to be the architects of our lives and futures."

Australia is the only Commonwealth country not to have a treaty with its indigenous people.
Last year Victoria became the first state to kickstart treaty negotiations, passing legislation for the creation of a representative body, elected by Aboriginal Victorians, to help design a framework.
"We will continue to fight for our identity and we want our laws recognised," a man told participants of the march outside parliament.

I finally got my e-mail about the copy of FanGirl that I put on hold being in at the Library yesterday and believe me when I say I pretty much got ready and rushed over there to pick it up since I had been hearing soooo much about it and I really just wanted to read the book.
And now only a few chapters in and I can really relate to the main character with her Fan Fiction writing ways. I think that so many girls and harry potter fans can relate to this book because it described us for many of years sitting around reading and writing our own versions of the characters we loved so much.
Though I have just started, I can not wait to read more and I really look forward to more of this book.

By KEITH RIDLER - Associated Press - Monday, March 29, 2021
BOISE, Idaho (AP) - Idaho Gov. Brad Little has issued his first veto of the 2021 legislative session, refusing to sign a bill involving the responsibilities of the chairman of the Idaho State Tax Commission.
Following Friday's veto, the Republican Little said said the legislation would add red tape that goes against his core belief of good government.
"The legislation adds a burdensome level of bureaucracy and uncertainty, which I fear will only complicate and slow the Tax Commission's ability to accomplish its important mission," Little wrote in his veto letter.
He added: "In the last year, we witnessed firsthand during the pandemic the incredible ability of the Tax Commission staff to step up and adapt quickly in changing environments to successfully implement initiatives and programs that support Idaho citizens and businesses."
The bill passed the House 66-1 and the Senate 23-9.
The Legislature is recessed until April 6 due to a COVID-19 outbreak among lawmakers in the House.
Republican House Speaker Scott Bedke and Republican Senate President Pro-Tem Chuck Winder did not immediately respond to text messages from The Associated Press inquiring whether they would seek to override Little's veto, which would take a two-thirds majority vote in both chambers.
Last year, as the coronavirus pandemic took hold in Idaho, Little signed a proclamation extending the tax filing deadline from April 15 to June 15. The commission also played a role in many other financial areas, including handling applications for small businesses so they could receive federal coronavirus emergency funding.
The legislation would require the approval of commissioners when the chairman makes certain administrative decisions. It would also allow commissioners to request that the commission vote on unilateral decisions made by the chairman.
Lawmakers in the House and Senate have put forward some 25 pieces of legislation aimed at limiting a governor's authority during declared emergencies.
The bill Little vetoed focused on an executive branch agency. The state tax commission's chairman as well as the commission's three other commissioner positions are appointed by the governor.
When the bill came up for debate in the House and Senate, the only lawmakers who spoke were the bill's sponsors.
Republican Rep. Dustin Manwaring, a Republican, described the proposed changes as clarifications.
"These changes will help ensure that the commission works like a commission," he said last month.
Republican Sen. Jim Rice, speaking this month, said the bill's changes would give the commissioners more power "rather than having just the commissioner (chairman) make all the decisions and the other three commissioners having no say."


Todays outfit is going back to basics, a black & white classic combination but with a pop of green. These are my favourite high heeled sandals, meaning I should probably try to wear and style with them more often. If you've followed my blog for some time now, you know I'm all about monochrome and simplistic, but chic ensembles. The lace of the shorts give the outfit it's softness and femininity, while the blouse gives it its elegance and structure. It's a lovely combination of girly and modern office wear. At least that's how I thought of it.

Finding Fanny Theatre Release
Category: Bollywood Movie Releases 2014
Finding Fanny is an upcoming English/Hindi satirical film, directed and written by Homi Adajania and produced by Dinesh Vijan under Maddock Films and presented by Fox Star Studios. The film is based on a road trip set in Goa and follows the journey of five characters. Finding Fanny revolves around five rather dysfunctional characters that live in the quaint sleepy village of Pocolim, nestled deep in the interiors of Goa, India. Pocolim is a village where pointless conversations are a way of life. Nothing ever really happens here and the people of Pocolim, well, they just exist. One night, the old postman Ferdie (Naseeruddin Shah), receives a letter that is slipped under his door.
He realizes that it is the letter he had written 46 years ago to the love of his life, Stefanie Fernandes, asking for her hand in marriage. To his utter shock, he discovers that had never been delivered. All these years Ferdie has lived a life of melancholy regret, believing that Stefanie had rejected him. He decides to find his beloved Fanny (as he fondly called her) and tell her the truth. Where would she be after 46 years? Dead? Happily married? Would she even remember him? Or is Stefanie Fernandes merely a figment of Ferdie imagination? Four colorful characters from the village join the trip under random pretexts, though in actuality everyone wants a distraction from their mundane lives.
Finding Fanny is an off the wall, comical story about a bunch of oddballs who venture out to find Stefanie Fernandes (Fanny); in the process, they discover a strange sense of solace and love amongst each other, and end up seeing a point to their previously pointless lives.

Q: Is rest POST Api automatically retry by browser like Get Api? We have a GET Api that do some operation and returns a long JSON ( assume total response size is 1 mb) .
When client requests GET API , this API took around five mins to do the Operation . But browser retry the GET API after two mins .
My question is

*

*If I change the Get API to post , So browser wont retry the request right?

*Is the timeout behaviour of post Api also same as GET Api ?

*Is the any limit for the response size we are sending in POST API response ?

Note : I know Post API is not the right one , we are doing this work around temporarily
Thanks in advance

A: *

*I don't know about a retry that is done by browsers. Is it maybe a client-side library or a proxy in between client and server that does the retry? GET is meant to retrieve information (RFC 2616). It must be safe and idempotent (RFC 2616). So, a second GET can be expected to cause no damage. This is not true for POST. So, you can expect that no retry will happen by any HTTP-agent when using POST.

*You have to find out where the retry comes from to get an answer.

*I don't think so, have never heard of one. The request might be a different matter.

You have to be aware that such a long-running request could face further problems. A corporate firewall could close the TCP-connection after some time of inactivity for example. An asynchronous handling could be worth considering. I mean to save the result on server and let the client retrieve it in a later request. This also avoids irritated users. Users that click again and again because it takes so long (the human retry) can slow down your server.
By the way, configuring compression on the server usually reduces the payload of messages quite a lot in case of JSON.
