Parents often ask, "What is the right age for my child to start dressage lessons? Does a person--child or adult--first learn to ride a horse, then study dressage?" In my experience, using dressage principles in the earliest lessons helps build a solid foundation for any type of riding, and promotes a more intuitive, naturally balanced rider. Anyone who has had a sketchy start and developed bad habits, such as crooked posture, riding mostly with the hands, or applying aids that confuse the horse, will attest to the fact that learning correctly in the first place is much easier than having to unlearn faults which have lingered for years.
Is dressage too complicated for the youngest riders? Yes and no. Just as a child learns building blocks for reading--letters, phonics, words, and simple sentences--before being able to read and comprehend complex texts, a rider can learn the elements of dressage in a simple, step-by-step way to build a strong foundation for a future in higher levels of sport or a lifetime of safe and enjoyable recreation. So which of the building blocks for dressage are appropriate for the youngest riders, the 5- to 10-year-olds? The most fundamental are balance and rhythm.
Being able to turn a horse with light, clear aids is essential to all riders. It is important that rein and weight aids work together, rather than in conflict. Madeline uses a very light but wide opening rein to turn the pony back and forth in tight loops. This helps her to turn her upper body naturally and shift her weight in the direction of the turn. For less sharp turns, weight and shoulders do most of the turning, with very little rein. A shallow serpentine through cones set 5 to 6 meters apart on the centerline, done first at a walk, then at a trot, can be challenging for any age rider in need of learning to use weight aids better.
Rainbow reins help the rider and the instructor keep track of whether or not the reins are held at equal lengths.
Also, I have the very young ones use the whole hand over the rein, because the rein is too thick to be comfortable between tiny fingers in the traditional grip.
Jayne Ayers is a Fédération Equestre Internationale "I" and U.S. Equestrian Federation (USEF) "S" dressage judge as well as an "R" sport horse breed judge. A member of the USEF Dressage Committee, she is a former executive board member of the U.S. Dressage Federation (USDF) and founder of the USDF sport horse committee. She owns Hearthstone Farm, where she breeds sport horses and enjoys training students of all ages in Dousman, Wis.

EU signs deal with Mali as part of Partnership Framework
16th December 2016 | News
On Sunday 11 December the European Union and the government of Mali signed a Joint Declaration focusing on addressing root causes of migration and strengthening cooperation on the return of irregular migrants who did not receive refugee status in the EU.
The declaration was signed by the Dutch minister of Foreign Affairs, Bert Koenders, on behalf of Federica Mogherini after a visit to the Mali's capital Bamako. The agreement follows the Valletta summit from November 2015, when EU and African leaders agreed to set up a €1.8-billion fund to help address the root causes of migration. Mali is currently chairing the Steering Committee of the Rabat Process, and therefore will play an important role in the preparations of the Valletta Senior Officials Meeting in February 2017.
The recognition rate of asylum seekers from Mali in the EU is 29.2% on average. Italy – currently the main country of destination has a recognition rate of 36.2%. However, the return rates remain very modest. The declaration aims at cooperation on legal migration, protection of refugees and migrants, prevention and fight against irregular migration including trafficking and the return, readmission and reintegration of irregular migrants and further focuses on speeding up technical cooperation and strengthening the returns on the basis of existing agreements.
The declaration reflects the same approach as the EU-Turkey deal and the June 2016 Partnership Framework Agreement on which the European Commission released its second progress report on 14 December. The Joint Declaration is hailed in the progress report as proof of the fact that the Partnership Framework is producing results on the ground in Mali. The progress report also states that stepping up the work on the transit dimension of Mali is now a priority as well as further strengthening cooperation on effective returns.

NASA has released a free-air gravity map of the Moon: "If the Moon were a perfectly smooth sphere of uniform density, the gravity map would be a single, featureless color, indicating that the force of gravity at a given elevation was the same everywhere. But like other rocky bodies in the solar system, including Earth, the Moon has both a bumpy surface and a lumpy interior. … The free-air gravity map shows deviations from the mean, the gravity that a cueball Moon would have." Gravity data comes from the GRAIL mission, with the digital elevation model provided by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter laser altimeter.

RUFF AND REDDY
Ruff and Reddy was the first made for TV cartoon from William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, the Oscar-winning duo responsible for M-G-M's Tom and Jerry cartoons.
Ruff and Reddy featured a brainy cat, Ruff, and a brainless dog, Reddy. Teamed with the kindly Professor Gismo, they faced such evil-doers as Killer and Diller, the terrible Texas twins, Captain Greedy and Salt Water Daffy, the chicken-hearted Chickasaurus, the Goon of Glocca Morra and others in various madcap adventures.
Jimmy Blaine with Ruff and Reddy
Ruff and Reddy first appeared December 14, 1957 on NBC-TV and was produced by the newly formed H-B Enterprises (later renamed Hanna-Barbera Productions) for Screen Gems, the TV arm of Columbia Pictures. The serialized episodes, in the style of Crusader Rabbit (which preceded Ruff and Reddy by nearly ten years), were originally sponsored by General Foods' Post Cereals and programmed along with the old Columbia cartoons including the Color Rhapsodies, Fox and the Crow, and Li'l Abner. Telecast in black and white until June 1959, the series included a live host and emanated from WNBC-TV, New York. During it's initial NBC run, from December 1957 to October 1960 (when production ended), the series was hosted by Jimmy Blaine with his puppet-bird sidekicks, Rhubarb the Parrot and Jose the Toucan. When it returned in reruns to NBC in September 1962, Captain Bob Cottle handled the hosting chores. Cottle and his puppets, Jasper, Gramps and Mr. Answer, remained until it left the network on September 26, 1964.
Captain Bob Cottle
While Ruff and Reddy never achieved superstardom, it did prove that limited animation was a feasible, low-cost way of filling children's viewing hours. Hanna-Barbera perfected the mass-production techniques and the studio went on to become the world's largest producer of animated programming.
Captain Bob Passes Away
I recently received email from Scott Kingsley, a cousin of Captain Bob Cottle, to inform me of Captain Bob's recent passing. He passed away on Sunday April 25, 1999 in the San Mateo County General Hospital in California following a stroke. He was 78.
In addition to hosting The Ruff and Reddy Show, Captain Bob produced and hosted the popular children's show, The Nature World of Captain Bob, which began in Hartford before it moved to Boston in 1953, where it ran for 14 years. The show appealed to both children and adults with its unique combination of nature, ecology and art. In addition, Mr. Cottle was a wonderful artist and storyteller who would spend much of his air time spinning yarns about the characters he made up. Through his stories, Mr. Cottle strived to foster in his viewers an appreciation for the natural world and its creatures. Mr. Cottle, along with his character Jasper Jinx, a plump man who resembled a frog, also appeared frequently on the show, The Magic Window, which ran on WBZ-TV. Mr. Cottle would tell stories about Jasper Jinx and animate them at the same time with incredible speed. He churned out as many as 25 large pictures during a 15-minute show.
Mr. Cottle leaves his wife, Elizabeth W. (Willis); a son; Robert Jr. of Enfield, N.H.; three stepsons, Robert Johnson, Gregory Johnson and Steven Johnson, all of California; two stepdaughters, Jerylee Johnson and Barbara Johnson of California; five grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

SEVENTEEN Make Their Return with 'Attacca'
New Music Friday: 10.22.21
SEVENTEEN has officially returned with their 9th EP Attacca. Attacca is the next story in their ongoing 2021 "Power of 'Love'" project after their Billboard chart-topping 8th EP Your Choice that was released in June 2021. Find the EP here.
Used to denote an uninterrupted movement at the end of one musical piece to the next, attacca ('attack at once'), also stands for SEVENTEEN's unstoppable passion that fuels them to continuously move forward as well as their progressively deepening ways of expressing love from one story to the next.
Attacca consists of a total of seven tracks including "To you", "Crush", "PANG!" (Performance unit), "Imperfect love" (Vocal unit), and "I can't run away" (Hip-hop unit). It also features their first English track "2 MINUS 1" by JOSHUA and VERNON. The pair also participated in its composition and lyric-writing, and WOOZI in its composition. The title track "Rock with you" was released with a music video along with the album drop.
"Rock with you" weaves together a powerful synth riff, addictive guitar backing, and a 2-step rhythm for a smooth yet riveting listen. The lyrics contain the declaration of a 'me' who is willing to do everything and anything for a 'you,' as well as the heartfelt desire to be with their one and only "even if the world is ending." Group members WOOZI, VERNON, and JOSHUA participated in penning the lyrics, while WOOZI also participated in the composition.
Belot Returns with 'Harmless Fun'
SEVENTEEN will host a comeback show on October 23 at 9 p.m. KST on HYBE Labels' official YouTube channel where the act will be unveiling some of their performances from the Attacca tracklist.

The #10 Moment of the Nashville Predators' 2011 Playoffs: Fans give the team a hero's welcome
By Dirk Hoag@Forechecker Updated Aug 17, 2011, 12:00pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: The #10 Moment of the Nashville Predators' 2011 Playoffs: Fans give the team a hero's welcome
Earlier this summer we reviewed the Top 10 Moments of the Regular Season, and now seems a fine time to look back at the team's playoff run...
One of the most exciting aspects of the Preds' post-season was the way the entire city was paying attention to the daily developments surrounding each series, and what really drew headlines was the way that fans turned out to greet the team when they arrived back in Nashville after games on the road. There were two such instances, the first on May 1 as the Preds came back for Game 3 vs. Vancouver after splitting the opening games on the road, then again on May 8 as they returned to Smashville for Game 6.
These rallies proved to be a great opportunity for Nashville to show the hockey world just how vibrant the Preds fan base is, a welcome bit of news that many (particularly north of the border) hadn't heard before.
So tune in for Pete Weber's look (from that May 8 rally) at what it was like for the team as they disembarked...

Dan Haar: Five lurking problems that could sink Lamont
By Dan Haar
Updated 10:35 am EDT, Thursday, October 25, 2018
LURKING ISSUES THAT CAN SINK LAMONT
1. Apathy in cities
Pictured: Ned Lamont, right, chats with Willie Murphy, a resident of the Second Stoneridge co-op in Bridgeport, during a campaign stop in June.

We all know this election for governor is about taxes, jobs and the state budget.
We all know the Republican, Bob Stefanowski, promises to hammer state spending and somehow magically cut taxes despite huge shortfalls while the Democrat, Ned Lamont, says he'll maintain most state commitments and manage the state back to fiscal health with collaboration.
That's the billboard picture. But close elections — and this one is a toss-up — are won and lost on the ground, with lurking issues and simmering problems ruling the day. Some we can see, such as Gov. Dannel P. Malloy picking up support after his handling of the Newtown tragedy.
Others creep up and we debate them years later, like Linda McMahon's overly closed, tightly controlled campaign for U.S. Senate in 2012.
With that in mind, here are five lurking, simmering concerns that could sink Lamont's chances of winning the governor's seat on Nov. 6. Look for the Stefanowski list later this week.
1. Urban voters stay home
Four years ago, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy won New Haven by 17,500 votes over Republican Tom Foley — and that was down by more than 1,000 from Malloy's 2010 showing. The Rev. Steven A. Cousin Jr., of Bethel AME Church in the Dixwell-Newhallville section, supports Lamont but he's worried about turnout, anticipating a falloff from those Malloy elections. The reason: Lamont vs. Stefanowski just isn't sending a charge through the city, despite the high stakes. "Not for lack of trying but they're not simply connecting," Cousin told me Wednesday. Lamont has made appearances in the cities, though not as many as the ubiquitous Malloy. More to the point, even though he fully supports the cities, he just doesn't connect quite as well with voters of color, as Cousin said. We also see a less than unified excitement in Bridgeport, as my colleague Brian Lockhart documented. Lamont's pick of Susan Bysiewicz as his running mate may help him in places like eastern Connecticut and the Naugatuck Valley, but it's not a great salve for the urban enthusiasm gap. The bright side: As the race tightens, the message is sinking in for city voters: Show up on Nov. 6 or face massive cuts in support.
2. Voters perceive a weaker candidate
Lamont has a charming sort of aw shucks persona that played well in a more thoughtful era. But I've heard more than one undecided voter say he comes off as the weaker of the two major party candidates. Maybe it's his smaller physical stature or penchant for sloped-shoulder suits, maybe it's his deliberative style of answering questions, maybe it's the fact that, until recently at least, he was slower to attack Stefanowski than vice versa. True power, of course, is not about physical presence and bluster, it's about the ability to shape events — and Lamont has shown he can do that amply. Perception matters, though.
3. A nagging sense about taxes among independents
We all know taxes in Connecticut are too high. Lamont wants to lower them just as badly as Stefanowski; well, almost as badly. The issue is who can cut spending more through smart management without slashing critical services. And there's no reason to believe Stefanowski can do that better than Lamont — just as Malloy was able to cut more state worker jobs than former Gov. John G. Rowland, despite Rowland's rhetoric. Still, all but the most ardent Lamont supporters may enter the voting stalls and say, "You know, my taxes are too high and this guy over here is talking about nothing else. Maybe I should take a shot." That's why some people think independents, some of whom favor petitioning candidate Oz Griebel, might break for Stefanowski instead of Lamont at the last minute. Lamont isn't helping his cause, swearing off cost-cutting measures such as new labor negotiations — as he said on Tuesday about teachers' benefits and as CTMirror.org's Keith Phaneuf documented on Wednesday.
4. Anti-union backlash equating labor with elitism
No Connecticut Democrat can occupy the governor's mansion (yeah, right, the Executive Residence) without big-time support from labor, and next week alone, look for three national union leaders to show up for Lamont, including Randi Weingarten of the AFT. That rallies the base but also charges up the opposition, as Trumpism — with Stefanowski as a major acolyte — is anti-unionism at its core. The ironic message we're hearing is that unions are elitist, that their members enjoy a level of prosperity above the norm. That's not true for the most part, and public surveys show support for unions in Connecticut despite Trumpism, but years of state budget shortfalls are feeding the backlash. And the elitist accusation could hurt Lamont more than other Democrats because, policies aside, he's fabulously wealthy from inheritance as well as income he and his wife have earned.
5. Less urgency on the ground
Eight years ago, when Malloy ran in 2010, Democrats hadn't celebrated an inauguration in 18 years. The sense of desperation, the edginess, was palpable. And the campaign organization on the ground matched that sense. Unions sent out an army of volunteers that year, and again in 2014. Does Lamont have a ground game with the same sophistication, the same sense of urgency? It's an open question. We've now had a governor who eliminated thousands of state employee jobs and oversaw years of pay freezes. And Malloy, for all his economic woes, has advanced the state by reducing homeless ranks, modernizing housing policy, reforming criminal justice, instituting gun control, welcoming refugees and broadening health coverage. That could cut into Democrats' fire in the belly. The AFL-CIO reports that union members are just as robust as ever at the phone banks and in the streets for Lamont. But there are quiet fears in the party that the intangible factor is weaker and that Lamont's field organization, while strong, could be stronger.

Q: Variables are not passed from one script calling another with Bash heredoc I have a shell script kept at my local user called (executeAdM.sh), and when I execute this script I am switching to a sudo user by taking commands from an instruction file. But when I execute this script I am also passing parameters, which is actually some directory path of the sudo user. See the script below.
Script for local user (executeADM.sh):
#!/bin/bash
echo password | sudo -S -l
sudo /usr/bin/su - user  <<\EOF
#ls -lrt
pwd
for entry in $(ls -r)
  do
  if [ "$entry" = "testingADM.sh" ];then
    ./"$entry" "$1"
  fi
done
EOF

I'm executing the above as:
./executeADM.sh "/global/u70/globe/ADM"

When the above script executes, it switches successfully to the other user, and with the sudo user I execute a for loop which searches for another script called testingADM.sh.
Once the script is found I execute that script with the parameter passed from the local user, and testingADM.sh should set the path for me.
This is not working – it is not reading the parameter passed from the local user.
The sudo user script (testingADM.sh):
#!/bin/bash
changepath=$1
cd "$changepath"
pwd

When I hardcode the path variable in the script, all works fine. But I don't want that:
 #!/bin/bash
 changepath=somepath
 cd "$changepath"
 pwd

The issue is instead of going to "/global/u70/globe/ADM" it takes the path as "/global/u70/globe/", Which is the path after I do sudo. It is just not passing the variable.

With the below suggestions, this is what I ended up with:
#!/bin/bash
echo password | sudo -S -l
sudo /usr/bin/su - user  <<EOF
#ls -lrt
#pwd
echo "$1"
./testingADM.sh "$1"
EOF

The echo command prints nothing; a blank space is shown. It worked when I changed \EOF to EOF.
Can anyone explain the difference between:
\EOF , "EOF" , 'EOF' , EOF

or do the first three have the same meaning? Then what is difference between them?

A: Edit
From back of my head.  Does your path contain spaces?
If yes you need to execute it as ./executeADM.sh 'somePath'.
It is always better to save the $1 into a variable when you are passing it further it makes it easier to read.  I would add path=$1 then in batch file you would have ./$entry "$path"

A: Do not quote or escape your heredoc limit string (i.e. use EOF instead of \EOF or "EOF"), as otherwise, special variables like $ will not be interpreted. See here for more info and examples (e.g. Example 19-7).
Here is a minimal script that works:
$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
sudo su - $(whoami) <<EOF
./test2.sh "$1"
EOF

$ cat test2.sh
#!/bin/bash
foo=$1
echo "$foo"

$ ./test1.sh "/path/to/file"
"/path/to/file"

Note that:

*

*There is no need for the heredoc at all. Just call ./test2.sh directly after sudo: sudo -u $(whoami) test2.sh "$1"

*You should not loop over the output of ls.

*There is no need to do a for loop to search for a single file. Just call the script directly with its name.

You should also quote your variables, that is:

*

*Execute your script with ./executeADM.sh "/path/with white/space"

*Call ./"$entry" "$1" in your script

*In your other script, use cd "$path"
In general:

*

*Always double-quote variables. (Don't single-quote them -- they won't expand.)

*Don't use a variable called path. (Much as you wouldn't use variables called user, home, etc.)

Victor Rothschild, Soviet Spy
March 27, 2018 Mark Hackard	5 Comments
The mystery of Lord Victor Rothschild's (1910-1990) connections to Soviet intelligence has vexed researchers for over a half century now. As the scion of an ultra-wealthy banking house and confidante to Winston Churchill, Rothschild was an influential figure in Britain's power elite for decades, occupying key positions in counterintelligence, the energy sector and strategic policy planning. But was he also the notorious Cambridge Spy Ring's "Fifth Man," a spy for Moscow who could access the crown jewels of UK secrets?
The Cambridge network – consisting of Kim Philby, Guy Burgess, Donald Maclean, Anthony Blunt, and John Cairncross – has gone down in history as one of Soviet secret service's most successful penetrations, to the shame of the British establishment. Long after their exposure, Rothschild was well-situated as a grey cardinal of UK politics, seemingly untouchable. Continue reading Victor Rothschild, Soviet Spy →

Did Russia Hack the Election?
February 17, 2017 Mark Hackard	3 Comments
Did Russian intelligence sway the outcome of the 2016 United States presidential race? Ask the CIA and mainstream Western media organs, and they'll have you believe that yes, it was none other than Moscow's shadowy operatives who managed to infiltrate Donald Trump into the newly gold-bedecked Oval Office. Blame the Russians, our betters declare, rather than a year of skewed coverage and loaded polls. While the theory has become popular among opposition to the new administration, it is based on exactly zero evidence – which means we should designate it under the establishment's own rubric as "fake news."
To bolster the charge, the US Intelligence Community (of Iraq WMD fame) has released a public report intimating that Vladimir Putin "hacked the election." Through cyberwarfare, agents of influence and information campaigns, we are told, the Kremlin pulled off the unthinkable and effectively ran a regime-change operation in America. Warmongering neoconservatives and virtue-signaling liberals alike commenced their reenactment of Red Dawn. Piling on, CNN and Buzzfeed unveiled a sloppy, error-ridden and highly dubious dossier detailing Trump's alleged Russian ties and sexual blackmail material (kompromat). None of these claims have been backed by a shred of credible proof presented to the public, so why should they be taken as an article of faith? Continue reading Did Russia Hack the Election? →

The Spy with the Broken Bracelet
May 13, 2016 Nina Kouprianova	2 Comments
Veteran chief of the KGB's elite Alpha Group Maj. Gen. Gennady Nikolaevich Zaitsev recounts the 1977 operation to arrest CIA intelligence officer Martha Peterson, who worked out of the US Embassy under diplomatic cover. Peterson had been handling a valuable agent – Aleksandr Ogorodnik, code-named Trigon, a highly-placed staffer at the Soviet Foreign Ministry. Little did Peterson know at the time that Ogorodnik had already been arrested and committed suicide in custody with poison supplied from Langley. The trap carefully laid by the KGB's Second Chief Directorate was set…
It so happened that I had the opportunity to participate in an arrest of a spy even before joining the spetsnaz Alpha Group. At that time, I served in the Seventh Directorate of the KGB of the USSR. Do you remember the film TASS is Authorized to Declare …? It told the story of how the KGB exposed Trigon, an enemy agent. In reality, this was Alexander Ogorodnik (Trigon), a staff member at the American Department of the Directorate for Planning Foreign Policy Measures at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He committed suicide during arrest. Continue reading The Spy with the Broken Bracelet →

Stopping Skorzeny
April 29, 2016 Mark Hackard	3 Comments
In late 1943 SS commando Otto Skorzeny, known as "the most dangerous man in Europe," was tasked by Hitler with a daunting mission: kill Stalin, Roosevelt, and Churchill, the Big Three, in Tehran, Iran. The bold plan, code-named Unternehmen Weitsprung (Operation Long Jump), might even have succeeded but for the efforts of Allied intelligence services. Below is the story of Ivan Agayants, Soviet NKVD resident in Tehran, who played a key role in foiling Berlin's assassination plot.
In the old Soviet action film Tehran-43, the fearless and sexy intelligence officer sent from Moscow to Iran's capital with a special mission dashingly neutralized Hitler's terrorists, who were preparing the assassination of Stalin, Roosevelt and Churchill. In that film there are three truths. The first: At the end of 1943 in Tehran, the Big Three Conference took place. The second truth: the fascists were preparing an assassination attempt on the leaders of the USSR, USA, and Great Britain. And the third: Soviet intelligence liquidated the terrorists.

Directorate K (Kontrrazvedka: Counterintelligence) of the KGB's First Chief Directorate (FCD – Foreign Intelligence) was responsible for protecting the FCD from infiltration as well as penetrating hostile intelligence services. A decorated veteran of "Line KR," KGB Colonel Viktor Ivanovich Cherkashin, shares his insights and experience in this interview.
1985 was christened Year of the Spy, when as a result of of the treachery of a number of officers, Soviet intelligence suffered significant losses among its agent networks, but simultaneously it was able to recruit high-level American intelligence officers overseas. Reserve Colonel from the KGB First Chief Directorate's (FCD) Directorate K (Foreign Counterintelligence) Viktor Cherkashin tells us about this and a number of other major spy scandals.

Inside the Kremlin Guard
March 12, 2016 Mark Hackard	Leave a comment
The Soviet KGB's elite Ninth Directorate was responsible for leadership protection and well as guarding the Kremlin, Communist Party headquarters and other special sites. Learn how the KGB created not only the world's top intelligence and counterintelligence services, but also a first-class bodyguard unit.
A study of the history of personal protection in the USSR shows a clear tendency: if a good relationship developed between the principal and the chief of a detail, then the latter stayed loyal to him to the end, even after his death. And the other way around: arrogance, fault-finding, and ingratitude in communication with officers of the security detail could, at a tough moment, leave the leader of a vast country alone with his problems and his enemies.

Washington's GRU General
January 22, 2016 Mark Hackard	1 Comment
GRU Maj. Gen. Dmitry Polyakov (1921-1988) was a decorated veteran of the Great Patriotic War (World War II) and an old-line Stalinist. Yet beginning in 1959, when on assignment under diplomatic cover at the UN Mission in New York, he was also a US intelligence asset after he volunteered his services to the FBI. Until his arrest in 1986, Polyakov shared the GRU's most guarded secrets on its international agent networks with Washington, making him the highest-ranking and most damaging mole in the history of Soviet intelligence. Polyakov was finally brought to heel in 1986, when the KGB tracked him down thanks to leads from their own moles – CIA officer Aldrich Ames and FBI special agent Robert Hanssen. The KGB's Third Chief Directorate, military counterintelligence, swung in to action.
From the last decade of the Soviet Union presented in the FSB Museum's "Spy Gallery," it especially follows to turn our attention to a photograph of an elderly man sitting in the dock of the accused in the proceedings hall of the Supreme Court's Military Collegium.
He knew his punishment beforehand and wasn't hoping for leniency. Almost 25 years of work for the FBI and CIA could not be atoned for by his candid admissions. On the conscience of former General Dmitry Feodorovich Polyakov was the blood of Soviet secret intelligence officers, the shattered fates of his colleagues in intelligence, and the most important state secrets betrayed to the adversary.

Colonel Aleksei Mikhailovich Kozlov (1934-2015) was a deep-cover intelligence officer in the KGB's elite Directorate S, the Illegals, during the height of the Cold War. Posing as a traveling German businessman, he was captured by South African counterintelligence in 1980, but not before passing onto Moscow Center shocking information on joint South African-Israeli nuclear weapons tests. This December 20th, 2009 interview with the newspaper Izvestia provides another fascinating inside look at the global-scale operations of KGB Directorate S.
Izvestia: How did you get into Illegal Intelligence?
Kozlov: In 1953 I arrived in Moscow from Vologda to go to the Moscow State Institute for International Relations (MGIMO). My character brought me to humanities, and I very much loved the German language. I had wonderful teacher in school – Zelman Shmulevich Pertsovsky. He was a Polish Jew who in 1939, when the Germans entered Poland, crossed the Bug River and turned up on our side. He was simply in love with the German language and quoted Schiller and Goethe by heart. He called me a "slacker" and helped a lot with preparing for higher education.

I have already tried the accepted answer here: debian apt packages hash sum mismatch
I am naive but I believe it is httpredir.debian.org which is causing the problem. How can I update /etc/apt/sources.list? What alternative entries could I use?

A: For now, I edited /etc/apt/sources.list and updated it with a new mirror which solved the primary issue of not being able to find a candidate package.

A: This is related to some sort of bizzare network issue (perhaps router related?), I connected my laptop through another network connection (namely tethering through the smart phone) and apt-get update started working. Wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my eyes, etc...
Not to be mystical about it, What I'm saying in short is check your internet connection, maybe try another connection, your update is accessing a lot of package sites, some of them might be filtered for some reason or other, check the URL's for the ones causing problems.
And as a rule of thumb I wouldn't mess with my sources.list unless I knew extremely well what I was doing and that only through the given tools, most often that wouldn't come in the sources.list but in the .d. folder somewhere down the line so it won't override any dependencies and cause problems down at the package tree trunk. And allways keep your apt-get update working or you'll lose the ability to keep your system in sync.

A: I had the issue with a Ubuntu VM, while Hyper-V was turned on in Windows 10.
This fixed it:
Open Powershell as administrator and run:
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off

Then restart Windows 10.

I hope this Easter long weekend finds you all well and with lots of time for stitching! We are well, but struggling to find time to stitch, or do much else for that matter! We have been busy as ever whilst settling into our Mt Barker premises, but we are loving it here more than ever. It's been a while between blog posts from me as we have been so flat out, but I thought I'd take a quick moment to check in with you all and let you know what's been happening in the shop!
"You learn so much from Ming, she's very generous with her knowledge, and I've found that not all teachers are' (Anna); 'Ming is just brilliant, I've been to other workshops where the time dragged, but today the time just flew by!' (Sheree) & 'I loved my workshop with Ming, she is just so patient and makes sure that everyone understands' (Heather).
I was also lucky enough to have Ming talk me through her very own needleturn technique that the girls were learning. I couldn't believe how simple it was, never in a million years did I think needle turn would ever be so achievable for me! I'm now itching to get started on a needleturn project but it will have to join the que, as there are many other projects that need to be completed first! Ahhh the problems a quilter must deal with!
Earlier this month we were lucky enough to be the shop at the Quilters' Guild of South Australia's monthly meeting and had a great time catching up with both new and old customers. It was a great opportunity to introduce our new premises to old customers who haven't been able to make the trip up, and the Guild were kind enough to let us present a slide show of images of the new shop. We've since seen Guild members popping up to Mt Barker to say hello and have a look for themselves, which is fantastic, and we look forward to seeing many more as time goes on! We are also very excited to be one of the shops at Quilt Encounter later in the year, but more on that a little later on.
Cheryl has been busy whipping up shop samples in her 'spare time' (I don't know how she does it!) and has come up with some stunning projects. Here is 'Rising Sun', a simple yet effective quilt she designed using panel pieces and 2 coordinate fabrics. I love the quilting in the 4 patches!
Next is a Leesa Chandler pattern featuring a new range of stunning poppy fabrics. This one is sure to sell VERY quickly!
Now, I have not been doing as much stitching as Cheryl, however yesterday's weather at Mt Barker was definitely Quilting weather, so I was able to get block 2 of Dear William fused together. I still haven't finished block one, of course! But now block 2 is on it's way too The girls doing the BOM will be able to pick up their block 2 soon!
So, that is about it on the project front for the moment. There are a lot more things on the go in our sewing room of course, however there's only so much we can put in one blog post!
Before I go, just a quick note about the first ever Littlehampton Ladies Evening! We are lucky enough to have a stall at this event and are really looking forward to it! Please come by to say hello and to support the community! We will have lots of goodies for sale from fabric, to haby, and even gifty bits and pieces! Plus, we have donated vouchers for the raffle prizes and a pack for the silent auction, so it's a great way to grab a bargain!
Lastly, we have been getting LOTS of stunning new fabric deliveries, but we're running out of room to put it all! So keep your eyes and ears out for details about our members only sale! It is not to be missed, more details will be coming soon (make sure you read the next issue of our newsletter!)!
P.S. For all those who have very kindly asked after my studies over the last few years, here's a happy pic of Mum (Cheryl) and I at graduation (Honours in Psychology)! It was lovely to have her there, thanks again Heather for working for us!

Q: Call div C function from Julia I am trying to familiarize with calling C functions from Julia.
I have some troubles with easy functions like isalnum.
Running
ccall( (:isalnum, "libc"), Bool, (ASCIIString,), "k")

Returns always false.
I also tried to use the function "div" which returns quotient and reminder of a division. To store both values I created a type
type Foo
         A::Int64
         B::Int64
end

and then run
t = ccall( (:div, "libc"), Foo, (Int64,Int64,), 7,3)

but the results are wrong.

A: The C function int isalnum(int c); takes an int and returns an int.  You can pass a character to ccall and it will be automatically be converted to Int64 but the function convert(::Type{Int64}, ::ASCIIString) does not exist.
Also, C considers anything non-zero as true, as does Julia when converting from Int to Bool, but when the return type is defined as Bool instead of Int64 it does not work.
julia> ccall((:isalnum,"libc"),Int64,(Int64,),'k')

You can pass non integers in as arguments because convert is implicitly called, but it's important to define the right return type.
julia> convert(Bool,ccall((:isalnum,"libc"),Int64,(Int64,),'k'))
true

and by comparison
julia> convert(Bool,ccall((:isalnum,"libc"),Int64,(Int64,),' '))
false

A: Unfortunately, Julia doesn't currently support returning structs from ccalls. There is an open pull request implementing this that fell through the cracks during the 0.3 release cycle and didn't get merged. If this were supported (it will be soon on the master branch), you would use an immutable structure to make it work. Like this:
julia> immutable Cdiv_t
           q::Cint
           r::Cint
       end

julia> ccall(:div, Cdiv_t, (Cint,Cint), 7, 3)
Cdiv_t(2,2)

As you can see, this is broken because the remainder part of the Cdiv_t structure is incorrect (it will currently always be the same as the quotient part). It's necessary to use an immutable structure because a mutable structure needs to store its components on the heap as individually allocated values – which is not compatible with C struct layout. Since Cdiv_t is immutable, its components can be stored inline, which is how C does it.
Also note the use of Cint as the Julia-side mirror of the C int type. This is always defined so that it is the correct type corresponding to C's int type – which is not always so easy to determine. The chapter on calling C and Fortran contains a full list of Julia types that correspond to C types. You generally want to use the middle column names in your Julia code since they will work anywhere, not just on your system.


April 9, 2010 (Pen Men at Work): The American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has verbalized that it has obtained almost 1,200 complaints in the last decade about the equipments that supply radiation treatment to the cancer patients. The FDA has requested the producers of the equipments to help advance security.
The FDA has dispatched letters to 93 creators of 'radiation cure' equipments. It has advised them to be present at a seminar to deal with worries about patient contact to extreme radiation from medical treatments and processes.
Companies to which the letters have been distributed consist of Varian Medical Systems, Siemens, Philips, numerous private firms, etc.
Radiation contact became one of the foremost worries in October 2009 after the FDA pronounced that it was examining 206 cases of patients being uncovered to poisonous dosages of radiation during CT scans of the brain at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
Recently, the FDA organized a gathering with the architects of diagnostic imaging equipment to collect notions about how to defend patients from disproportionate radiation exposure.
Immense dosages of radiation can be the basis of skin burns, cataracts and other physical injuries. Death and cancer can also be the lethal consequences of exceeding radiation.
In the letters to the radiation healing companies, the FDA has verbalized that it has obtained 1,182 reports about the medical equipments' difficulties over the last ten years.
Sickbays, private clinics and other employers of the medical equipments report demises to both, the equipment maker and the FDA. Nonetheless, they report severe injuries only to the equipment maker.
An appraisal of the reports has demonstrated that the linear accelerators were responsible for 74 percent of the complaints. These are the machines that bequeath an intense beam of electron radiation straight to the tumors.
'Radiation remedy planning systems' were culpable for 19 percent of the grievances and auxiliary items such as proton treatment equipments and radiation treatment simulators were guilty for 7 percent.
The FDA desires to conduct a public clinic on radiation cure planning, medical linear accelerators and other equipments.
The American College of Radiology has demanded an endorsement program for the amenities that transport radiation rehabilitation to the cancer patients.

Q: Convergence that is slower than algebraic convergence all, suppose that
$$
\lim_{t\rightarrow \infty} r(t)=r_0>0,
$$
I am wondering whether there exists $C>0$ and $\alpha>0$ such that
$$
|r(t)-r_0|\leq C(t+1)^{-\alpha},   \quad  \forall t>0.
$$
If it were the case,  then algebraic convergence is the slowest convergence。
I thought the above claim was not right, but I did not find such a supporting example. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

A: We may consider $\lim r(t) =0$, because then $\lim (r(t)+r_0)$ will tend to $r_0$.
If we do not believe the statement, we should try to find a counter example, that is we need to find a function $r(t)$ such that
$$\lim_{t\to\infty}r(t)=0$$
while
$$t^\alpha r(t)$$
is unbounded for all $\alpha$.
Does this help?

Expat Insider 2021 Survey: Indonesia Ranks 31st for Living Abroad
Indonesia Expat May 21, 2021 July 9, 2021 0
InterNations, the world's largest expat community with around 4 million members, has published its Expat Insider survey involving more than 12,000 respondents sharing their insights on living and working abroad and insights into expat life in 59 destinations.
The survey offers in-depth information on expats' satisfaction with the quality of life, ease of settling in, working life, personal finance, and the cost of living in their respective country of residence.
Indonesia comes 31st out of 59 destinations in the Expat Insider 2021 survey.
The country lands as the 8th for the ease of settling in and 11th for the cost of living. While it also gets a fairly good result in the Personal Finance Index falling on the 17th spot, it performs poorly in the Working Abroad (47th) and Quality of Life (55th) Indices.
Overall, Taiwan, Mexico, and Costa Rica are the best expat destinations worldwide: all of them attract expats with their ease of settling in and good personal finances. The bottom three countries, Kuwait, Italy, and South Africa, all perform poorly in the Working Abroad Index. Additionally, Kuwait is the hardest country for expats to feel at home in, Italy is the worst for personal finances, and expats in South Africa do not feel safe.
Bottom Five for the Quality of Life
Indonesia receives its weakest results in the Quality of Life Index on the 55th spot, even ranking second to last, or 58th, in the Health and Well Being subcategory. Over one in three expats or 35 percent rate claims the affordability of healthcare in Indonesia poorly, and 44 percent are unhappy with the quality of medical care. An Italian expat says: "The healthcare system is not good and doesn't appear to be improving."
Indonesia also lands among the bottom 10 in the Travel & Transportation subcategory on the 53rd spot, with 45 percent of expats rating the transport infrastructure negatively, compared to only 15 percent globally.
The country also falls on the 53rd spot in the Quality of the Environment subcategory. For example, 50 percent of expats are dissatisfied with the water and sanitation infrastructure — a much higher share than the global average of 12 percent. "The sea gets dirtier and dirtier! All kind of rubbish fills in the rivers and goes to the sea," complains a German expat. Despite all this, 80 percent of expats are generally happy with their life in Indonesia.
Friendly Population, Easy to Settle In
Indonesia ranks as the 8th destination in the Ease of Settling In Index, mostly due to the great results in the Friendliness (7th) and Finding Friends (8th) subcategories: 90 percent of expats rate the general friendliness of the population positively and 86 percent say the local people are generally friendly towards foreign residents.
Merely 44 percent of expats worldwide find it easy to make local friends, this is the case for 63 percent of respondents in Indonesia. Half the expats say their circle of friends and acquaintances includes a mix of locals and expats, and 29 percent are mostly friends with locals.
"It is a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, and I feel welcome wherever I go. The locals are always helpful and open to sharing their experiences and lifestyles," shared an American expat.
Dissatisfaction with the Local Economy
Indonesia ranks very poorly in the Working Abroad Index on the 47th spot, with 39 percent of expats rating the state of the local economy negatively — 20 percentage points more than the global share. More than two in five are unhappy with the local career opportunities as well.
The most popular career paths in Indonesia are in education (16 percent), finance (11 percent), as well as manufacturing and engineering (11 percent). Less than half of the expats in Indonesia work full time, while 15 percent have a part-time job. On average, expats in Indonesia work longer hours than the global average: full-timers work 46.9 hours per week whereas globally is 43.2 hours, resulting in 61 percent of expats are satisfied with their working hours.

Whole Foods CEO slams socialism as 'trickle-up poverty': 'It doesn't work'
CEO John Mackey argued capitalism cannot be replaced with socialism

Whole Foods CEO on company reducing prices, new tech emphasis
Whole Foods Market CEO, co-founder John Mackey joins 'Barron's Roundtable' to discuss his company's online shopping success
Whole Foods CEO John Mackey slammed socialism as "the path to poverty" and defended capitalism as the "greatest thing humanity's ever done" during a recent interview.
Mackey, who is worth an estimated $75 million, made the remarks last week to the American Enterprise Institute while discussing the culture of business leadership and how he believes it needs to change to help better elevate humanity through business.
WHOLE FOODS' CUSTOMERS, EMPLOYEES UNHAPPY WITH STRICT NEW DRESS CODE
"It needs to evolve," Mackey said of the business culture. "Otherwise, the socialists are going to take over — that's how I see it, and that's the path of poverty. They talk about trickle-down wealth, but socialism is trickle-up poverty. It just impoverishes everything. That's my fear, that the Marxists and socialists, the academic community is generally hostile to business. It always has been. This is not new."
Mackey argued that the purpose of business is to create value for others and blamed colleges and progressives for spreading the negative view of capitalism.
Mackey said Whole Foods, which Amazon acquired in 2017, employs about 100,000 people. (iStock)
"That's why we're seeing this move toward socialism -- because capitalism they see as inherently corrupt," Mackey said.
"That is wrong. Capitalism is the greatest thing humanity's ever done," he continued. "We've told a bad narrative, and we've let the enemies of business and the enemies of capitalism put out a narrative about us that's wrong. It's inaccurate and doing tremendous damage to the minds of young people."
While Mackey argued against outright socialism, he said there are some progressive ideas that are important and should be utilized.
"Socialism has been tried 42 times in the last 100 years, and 42 failures, it doesn't work, it's the wrong way," he said. "We have to keep capitalism, I would argue, we need conscious capitalism."
"We have to recognize that some of the progressive insights are important and they shouldn't go away," Mackey continued, "but we can't throw out capitalism and replace it with socialism. That will be a disaster."
Mackey co-founded Whole Foods Market in 1980 and said it employs about 100,000 people. The grocery chain was acquired by Amazon in 2017.
