A seminar and workshop offering a full range of methods for anyone launching a new product or service and seeking to maximise profit while positioning for future growth.
Too often companies fail to realise the full potential revenue of an offer and so make much lower profits than they could. The commonest cause is an inability to price its real value to the customer.
Value-based pricing requires in-depth analysis of your customers' fundamental concerns and contextual needs. It demands that you develop a real understanding of, and constantly re-evaluate, the financial and emotional impact your offer makes.
Map your strategy for evolving customer value and the market positioning you intend to occupy.
We will intersperse periods of explanation and discussion with examples and workshops for you to apply the methods to your own business. While this session will focus primarily on early stage B2B business, more mature organisations launching innovative products can benefit too. For B2C business we review ways to identify the emotional and psychological factors that drive most consumer sales and determine pricing.
It is preferable for at least two members of an organisation to attend where possible so that they can work together on applying the tools. Ideally they should be from the team responsible for commercialising the offer and/or for its P and L.
My present position as a director, consultant and trainer in value creation, business development and adapting to disruptive change stems naturally from my personal history. As both entrepreneur and consultant I have consistently been involved in the evolution of technologies that radically change customer behaviour, often resulting in disruptive change for business. From my first engagement as programme director of an early cable channels in the UK, through the birth of Interactive Media, the development of the Web, the rise of mobile telephony, the origins of software as a service and the recent growth in new materials and bioengineering, I have been propelled into each new phase. Along the way I have observed patterns of development that seem to repeat and that offer a guide to probable future scenarios. A consistent theme of my work is Value Management. Early on I learned reliable methods for analysing and optimising the value added by each new development, especially value as perceived by customers and the price they are therefore willing to pay. The winners under disruptive change are always those who add most perceived value for their customers whilst capturing a fair share for themselves. Market share and industry power follow directly. My focus on value is augmented by a Systems Thinking approach that seek to understand the dynamics of the whole organisation both internally and in relation to its larger market.

Rypien slices Air Force in Boise State's 48-38 win
By DENNIS GEORGATOS - Oct. 28, 2018 12:27 AM EDT
Boise State wide receiver John Hightower (16) rolls in for a touchdown after pulling in a pass in front of Air Force linebacker Grant Donaldson in the first half of an NCAA college football game Saturday, Oct. 27, 2018, at Air Force Academy, Colo. (AP Photo/David Zalubowski)
AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. (AP) — Just as Brett Rypien released his fourth touchdown pass of the night late in the second quarter, the Boise State quarterback took a shot to the chin from a defender, opening a cut that required stitches to close.
Sewn up at halftime, Rypien didn't miss a beat, finishing with five touchdown passes — three to John Hightower — and Boise State pulled away in the late going to beat Air Force 48-38 on Saturday night.
"I don't like the getting hit part, and I think that comes a little bit with the situation," said Boise State coach Bryan Harsin. "He got his chin taken care of. That's not what you want from your quarterback but at the same time he's standing in there and delivering the ball. The number one requirement for a quarterback is toughness, and he's been displaying it all year long."
Rypien completed 20 of 34 passes for 399 yards with touchdowns of 61, 44 and 18 yards to Hightower, 21 yards to A.J. Richardson and 35 yards to C.T. Thomas. It was his fifth 300-yard passing game of the season and 20th of his career, most in school history.
Rypien didn't have much of a chance to see Thomas' catch because of the immediate hit he took after releasing the throw.
"That last play we scored (at the end of the half) I got one under the chin, but we scored so it made it feel a little bit better," Rypien said.
And the one after that, too.
"We'd never won here" at Air Force, Rypien said. "It was something that was a huge motivating factor for us. It means a lot."
Hightower finished with eight catches for 182 yards and Sean Modster had six receptions for 101 yards for Boise State (6-2, 4-1 Mountain West), which won for the first time in three trips to Air Force (3-5, 1-4). Boise State's Alexander Mattison ran 22 times for 136 yards and a touchdown.
Isaiah Sanders was 10 of 15 for 210 yards and two touchdowns. He also ran for 97 yards and another score for the Falcons.
Haden Hoggarth's second field goal, a 47-yarder with 12:14 remaining, restored a 10-point lead for the Broncos. But Air Force again came back, driving nearly the length of the field before Sanders shoveled a 5-yard pass to Kadin Remsberg for a touchdown, pulling the Falcons to within three points with 5:24 remaining.
It didn't take long for Boise State to answer. Hightower shot past cornerback Zane Lewis' press coverage near the line of scrimmage and sprinted into the clear along the right sideline. Rypien spotted him, threw downfield and Hightower caught it on the run to complete the 61-yard score with 3:21 left.
"It came down to the O-line blocking and Brett making a wonderful pass and me trying to do what I can," Hightower said.
Air Force failed to convert a fourth down near midfield and Boise State ran out the clock to secure the victory.
Falcons coach Troy Calhoun said his squad went toe-to-toe offensively with the Broncos in the first half but couldn't sustain the pace.
"We've got to convert; we've got to have a little more manageable third downs, especially in the second half," Calhoun said.
The Broncos took a 38-31 lead into the fourth quarter, getting a 30-yard field goal from Hoggarth and a 1-yard touchdown run by Mattison that was set up by Avery Williams' 67-yard punt return to the Falcons' 5-yard line. Air Force squeezed in a 30-yard field goal by Jake Koehnke.
Rypien threw his fourth touchdown pass of the game to Thomas with five seconds left in the second quarter, allowing the Broncos to pull into a 28-all tie in a wild first half that saw the teams taking turns zipping down the field.
The Broncos broke on top with two quick first-quarter scoring strikes from Rypien to Hightower around Air Force's first touchdown, a 17-yard burst up the middle by fullback Cole Fagan.
The teams traded scores to start the second quarter with Sanders and Marcus Bennett teaming up for a 20-yard touchdown pass and Rypien connecting with Richardson.
The Falcons finished off a 21-point second quarter with Sanders' 5-yard touchdown run and halfback Joseph Saucier's 32-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Andrew Smith that pushed Air Force briefly in front 28-21.
Boise State: With the victory, Boise State became bowl eligible. Rypien matched his career high with five touchdown passes and the Broncos fleet wide receivers were able beat the Falcons secondary at key moments to come out on top in a shootout for a third consecutive win.
Air Force: The Falcons were denied in a bid for their first back to back wins of the season. They managed to trade blows offensively with the high-powered Broncos but in the end just couldn't contain Boise State's passing game.
Boise State: Returns home to host Brigham Young on Saturday night.
Air Force: Plays at Army on Saturday with the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy on the line.

Have you tasted the famous donuts from Big Apple and J.Co in Malaysia? They are very famous for donuts and a lot people are dying for it. The queue is damn long I tell you and the queue is never ending! I really really want to try out how good the donuts taste because many friends told me that it is very delicious and soft!
I prefer J.Co over Big Apple, I don't know why! Try krispy kreme! Even nicer!!!
Yeah I ate it before.. J.Co is better than Big Apple and Krispy Kreme. :) Krispy Kreme Donuts are very normal and sweet only.


Mary enjoys working in watercolors and oils, but has also done pastels. She has always enjoyed creating art and took commercial art courses in college. While living in Maryland and during a two-year stint in Saudi Arabia with her husband's career, she took classes in oil painting. After she and her family moved to Ste. Genevieve in 1987, she began seriously painting in watercolors with local artist Clare Condon. After retirement she began taking classes in the senior scholar program at Mineral Area College with Jim Wilson, which sparked her interest in returning to oils.
Mary has recently moved to Farmington to be with her son and his family, but continues to be active in the art community in Ste. Genevieve. She is a past-president of the Art Guild.

Q: How to split a list into subsets with no repeating elements in python I need code that takes a list (up to n=31) and returns all possible subsets of n=3 without any two elements repeating in the same subset twice (think of people who are teaming up in groups of 3 with new people every time):
list=[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]

and returns
[1,2,3][4,5,6][7,8,9]

[1,4,7][2,3,8][3,6,9]

[1,6,8][2,4,9][3,5,7]

but not:
[1,5,7][2,4,8][3,6,9]

because 1 and 7 have appeared together already (likewise, 3 and 9).
I would also like to do this for subsets of n=2.
Thank you!!

A: Here's what I came up with:
from itertools import permutations, combinations, ifilter, chain

people = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]

#get all combinations of 3 sets of 3 people
combos_combos = combinations(combinations(people,3), 3)

#filter out sets that don't contain all 9 people
valid_sets = ifilter(lambda combo:
                     len(set(chain.from_iterable(combo))) == 9,
                     combos_combos)

#a set of people that have already been paired
already_together = set()
for sets in valid_sets:
    #get all (sorted) combinations of pairings in this set
    pairings = list(chain.from_iterable(combinations(combo, 2) for combo in sets))
    pairings = set(map(tuple, map(sorted, pairings)))

    #if all of the pairings have never been paired before, we have a new one
    if len(pairings.intersection(already_together)) == 0:
        print sets
        already_together.update(pairings)

This prints:
~$ time python test_combos.py
((1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 6), (7, 8, 9))
((1, 4, 7), (2, 5, 8), (3, 6, 9))
((1, 5, 9), (2, 6, 7), (3, 4, 8))
((1, 6, 8), (2, 4, 9), (3, 5, 7))

real        0m0.182s
user        0m0.164s
sys         0m0.012s

A: Try this:
from itertools import permutations

lst = list(range(1, 10))

n = 3
triplets = list(permutations(lst, n))
triplets = [set(x) for x in triplets]

def array_unique(seq):
    checked = []
    for x in seq:
        if x not in checked:
            checked.append(x)
    return checked

triplets = array_unique(triplets)

result = []
m = n * 3
for x in triplets:
    for y in triplets:
        for z in triplets:
            if len(x.union(y.union(z))) == m:
                result += [[x, y, z]]

def groups(sets, i):
    result = [sets[i]]

    for x in sets:
        flag = True
        for y in result:
            for r in x:
                for p in y:
                    if len(r.intersection(p)) >= 2:
                        flag = False
                        break
                    else:
                        continue
                if flag == False:
                    break
        if flag == True:
            result.append(x)

    return result

for i in range(len(result)):
    print('%d:' % (i + 1))
    for x in groups(result, i):
        print(x)

Output for n = 10:
http://pastebin.com/Vm54HRq3

A: Here's my attempt of a fairly general solution to your problem.
from itertools import combinations

n = 3
l = range(1, 10)

def f(l, n, used, top):
    if len(l) == n:
        if all(set(x) not in used for x in combinations(l, 2)):
            yield [l]
    else:
        for group in combinations(l, n):
            if any(set(x) in used for x in combinations(group, 2)):
                continue
            for rest in f([i for i in l if i not in group], n, used, False):
                config = [list(group)] + rest
                if top:
                    # Running at top level, this is a valid
                    # configuration.  Update used list.
                    for c in config:
                        used.extend(set(x) for x in combinations(c, 2))
                yield config
                break

for i in f(l, n, [], True):
    print i

However, it is very slow for high values of n, too slow for n=31. I don't have time right now to try to improve the speed, but I might try later. Suggestions are welcome!

A: My wife had this problem trying to arrange breakout groups for a meeting with nine people; she wanted no pairs of attendees to repeat.
I immediately busted out itertools and was stumped and came to StackOverflow. But in the meantime, my non-programmer wife solved it visually. The key insight is to create a tic-tac-toe grid:
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9

And then simply take 3 groups going down, 3 groups going across, and 3 groups going diagonally wrapping around, and 3 groups going diagonally the other way, wrapping around.
You can do it just in your head then.
- : 123,456,789
| : 147,258,368
\ : 159,267,348
/ : 168,249,357

I suppose the next question is how far can you take a visual method like this? Does it rely on the coincidence that the desired subset size * the number of subsets = the number of total elements?

this year was one of the best.. but yet.. one of the worst.. the worst part shouldn't be hard to figure out.. we missed a lot of people who we feel should have still been with us to enjoy it.. we reminisced a lot and miss seeing some of the people. we were all saddened by the losses we suffered this year, and felt the physical emptiness their memories brought, but in many ways, we felt their presence amoung us.
It was the best in many many ways.. it was great to see some old faces, and a lot of new ones. It was awesome to see Karin, she looked so good..and in spite of their horrible loss, Kathy KB2E showed up this year, with joannas mom, and it was great to see them, and it felt as though Joanna was there with them as well. I really enjoyed the time we got to spend together.
Seeing Alice, Judy, Anita, Cheryl, Alicia, Peggy. Lynsie, Chase, Kris DeRose, Brenda, Denise, Nancy Sherri and the many many many other regulars was so very heart warming, you just knew you were "home" when a member of the "family" was in the room.
There were so many new faces and I really believe everyone really felt at home and a part of the Sgga Family.. there were so many new owners, who had loads and loads of questions.. and their enthusiasm to learn more was so intoxicating and stimulating, and at times very challenging for even us old folks..
everyone there.. proved beyond a shadow of a doubt, that the SGGA is what you make it to be..
Sorry I missed it all :( Glad you all had a great time.
This years SGGA was truly a great one! It was very relaxing and was so nice getting to meet so many new people. I loved spending so much time with friends whom I consider family. And of course the weekend is just never long enough to be able to spend as much time as I would have liked to with everyone.
I take my camera every year but end up having so much fun that I don't get too many pictures to share after I get home.
Thank you so much to everyone that makes the SGGA so special every year and I am anxiously looking forward to next year no matter where it is!
Ditto! Lol! It's never long enough and once a year is not enough to see my friends and glider family! I had such a blast and am still recovering. Trying to catch up online a bit before I go back to bed tonight...lol. Love you all and missed those who weren't there.

U.S. Copyright Office considering exemption for abandoned online games
By Eric Brackett	 February 18, 2018
The U.S. Copyright Office is considering a rule change that would loosen the restrictions governing emulations and reproductions of abandoned online games.
The argument is based on the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1996, which is a law meant to curtail the theft and piracy of intellectual properties such as video games and other software. Currently, the U.S. Copyright Office grants an exception to various museums, archives, and libraries regarding abandoned games that are no longer publicly available. New exemptions to the DMCA are considered every three years by the U.S. Copyright Office.
Last year, several organizations, including the non-profit Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment, filed a request that the U.S. Copyright Office broaden its exceptions to include online games that have been shut down by their publishers. These would include MMORPGs such as Star Wars Galaxies and City of Heroes. Both of those game still have passionate fanbases, but they are no longer playable due to the fact that the servers shut down several years ago.
The Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment is requesting that exemptions be extended to online games.
"Although the Current Exemption does not cover it, preservation of online video games is now critical," the Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment wrote. "Online games have become ubiquitous and are only growing in popularity. For example, an estimated fifty-three percent of gamers play multiplayer games at least once a week, and spend, on average, six hours a week playing with others online."
Arguments regarding this exemption expansion were made during the previous review period, but the Copyright Office argued that many multiplayer games survived via local multiplayer. However, the vast majority of MMO games require a connection to a server and were never built with any form of local multiplayer in mind.
For these reasons, the Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment is asking the U.S. Copyright Office to allow archivists to operate servers for these abandoned games so that players may experience them as the developers intended.
The Entertainment Software Association, which represents major players in the video game industry such as Electronic Arts, Nintendo, and others, has come out in opposition to this request. The ESA argues that extending the DMCA exemptions to online games would be a step too far.
"The proponents characterize these as 'slight modifications' to the existing exemption," the ESA wrote. "However they are nothing of the sort. The proponents request permission to engage in forms of circumvention that will enable the complete recreation of a hosted video game-service environment and make the video game available for play by a public audience."
The ESA further argues that allowing the hosting of servers would allow gamers to fully play these games for free, which could be seen as a form of competition with their existing titles. The ESA notes that the Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment charges an admission fee, which it argues amounts to a commercial enterprise, even if the Museum is a non-profit.
The U.S. Copyright Office has yet to make a decision but will review all relevant comments before doing so.

Q: ytick with equal space I have this code which shows the data in written in an external file. However, it is not simple to read the graph. So, I would like to have a graph with a distance on yticks that is not the same (e.g., 1cm for 0.6-0.7 and 0.2cm for 0.7-0.8). How can I obtain this result? Thanks in advance.

Jorge Masvidal Sends Message to Gilbert Burns and Leon Edwards; 'I Really Don't Like Entertaining These Idiots'
Jorge Masvidal responded to claims of ducking a fight with Gilbert Burns while addressing a potential fight with UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards
Courtesy of @gamebredfighter, @gilbert_burns, and @leonedwardsmma on Instagram
Jorge Masvidal will be ready to return to the Octagon in early 2023 and he hopes that No. 5 ranked welterweight Gilbert Burns will be the guy standing across from him.
Absent since his decisive loss to bitter rival Colby Covington at UFC 272, Jorge Masvidal has been linked to a potential bout with Burns over the past few months, though neither man has signed on the dotted line. Burns recently claimed that it was the fault of 'Gamebred' who had allegedly declined potential fights in November, December, and January.
In an interview with MMA Fighting, Jorge Masvidal responded to Burns' claim, alleging that while the UFC did offer him the fight, he told them from day one that he would only accept a fight in March or April, once he's had the opportunity to get healthy and take care of some lingering legal issues.
"From my end, this fight was offered, but never officially and I always just shut it down because I couldn't fight. The dates that they said they wanted, I never said anything about I'll fight anybody in November or December and I said if I'm ready, maybe I could go January if everything is right. I wasn't ready, I told them that in like mid-November. I don't know when they decided to tell Gilbert, 'Hey, he's not taking the January fight.' This guy loses his sh*t like I ever promised him a dance.
"The only dance I promised was on March or April, whenever it is that Leon [Edwards] fights. That's when I told these guys I'll be ready by then. I could for a fact on March or April, so let's go. I'll put the world out there, tell Hunter [Campbell] and he freaking guess what? Sends on the contract to Gilbert. He says, 'No, I don't want to fight, I want to fight in Brazil.' So go fight in Brazil. Just keep my name out of your mouth bro.
"Everytime he says my name he gets a couple thousand followers so I guess that's the gimmick he's doing. If he wants to fight, we'll fight in March. We'll fight in April. We'll fight in London. That's it. I don't really like entertaining these idiots man. They could all go f*cking f*ck themselves, man. I'm here for me. When I'm healthy and ready, whenever it is, hopefully it's a top five guy. If all of these guys got excuses and don't want to go, whatever. I go to the next guy."
A post shared by Jorge Masvidal (@gamebredfighter)
Things Get Interesting When Jorge Masvidal and Leon Edwards Are in London Together
Jorge Masvidal's preferred return date would be when the UFC heads back to London, rumored to be in the first quarter of 2023. UFC President Dana White has already confirmed that the event will be headlined by a rematch between current welterweight champion Leon Edwards and former titleholder Kamaru Usman.
The last time Leon Edwards and Jorge Masvidal were in London together, things got a little out of hand. Following his knockout of Darren Till at a UFC Fight Night event in March 2019, 'Gamebred' was backstage speaking with Laura Sanko when Edwards walked by, talking trash to Masvidal in the process. That prompted the self-proclaimed BMF Champion to walk over and throw a series of strikes that he later famously dubbed a 'three-piece and a soda.'
With Leon Edwards now the UFC's welterweight champion, Masvidal has been pushing hard for the long-awaited showdown between the two. Leon Edwards has gone on record saying that he's still p*ssed off over the incident and plans to get revenge whether it's in the street or the Octagon. Masvidal responded to the UFC champion in his interview with MMA Fighting, saying:
"For starters, when he's says things like that, he's just trying to, I don't know, advocate to the coach or something. You're not that dude. We've already did that right. You talk nonsense about me for weeks on end on Twitter talking sh*t. Just now when I pulled up, and you've been doing all that nonsense talking, you weren't ready to go. Don't nobody care what you would do in the streets because everybody know he's gonna be a deer in headlights again.
"That street talk is just for him to appeal to the street and things like that because he's a dork and he's trying to do things like that, but I want to fight him in the cage. He's got a belt wrapped around his waist so I want to go get these W's and fight him and then take care of the things I gotta do before I'm done with my career."

Learn how to curb sugar cravings naturally by eating a variety of anti-craving foods such as those listed below.
This page of HealWithFood.org's Guide to Controlling Sugar Cravings is focused on foods that can help reduce and stop cravings for sugar and sweet substances. If you are interested in more general information about sugar cravings and nutrition, visit this Guide's section on the best diet tips for fighting off sugar cravings. For delicious recipes that combine some of the best anti-sugar-craving foods, visit our collection of recipes that fight sugar cravings.
Tomatoes are an excellent source of chromium.
Tomatoes are a nutritional superhero and one of the best foods to eat on a regular basis if you want to curb sugar cravings. Along with romaine lettuce and onions, tomatoes are up there at the top of the list of the most chromium-rich foods. In addition, tomatoes are a great source of serotonin, which is great news as studies suggest that decreases in serotonin levels can cause us to crave sugar. Serotonin is a chemical that functions as a neurotransmitter helping brain cells and other nervous system cells communicate with one another.
If you're looking for a great functional food to prevent sugar cravings, you may want to give chicory greens a try. According to traditional Chinese medicine, sugar cravings may be a sign of an imbalance which can be rectified by eating bitter-tasting foods such as the leaves of the chicory plant. As an additional bonus, chicory greens contain vitamin B6, a well known anti-craving nutrient.
Hydroxychalcone in cinnamon may enhance the impact of insulin.
Cinnamon has extraordinary properties that can help keep sugar cravings at bay. A mere half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels and reducing food cravings. The main active ingredient in cinnamon is called hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effect of insulin. Cinnamon also appears to prevent post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate (GER), which means that the food remains in the stomach longer.
Fish is a great food to add to your diet if you want to curb sugar cravings. Fish works its anti-craving magic in two ways: First, it appears to make the body more sensitive to the hormone leptin. Leptin has been shown to promote development of gray matter in the part of the brain that regulates food cravings and can consequently result in fewer sugar cravings. Second, fish is a rich source of glutamine, an amino acid that provides energy to the brain and helps build and maintain muscle mass. It may also help reduce cravings for sugar and carbohydrates. This is likely to be a result of glutamine's stabilizing effect on blood sugar levels: when the levels are low, glutamine suppresses insulin to prevent further decline of the sugar levels. Glutamine also stimulates the release of glycogen to help increase the blood sugar to normal levels.
Apples can make you feel full for longer.
An apple a day keeps the doctor away, goes the old adage. But did you know that apples can also keep sugar cravings at bay? Apples contain pectin, a type of dietary fiber that makes you feel fuller and for a longer time, so you will eat less during the day. The high concentration of pectin also contributes to the fact that apples have a low glycemic rating compared to most other fruit. As most of the pectin is in the skin, it is best to buy organic apples so that you can eat them unpeeled.
Eating a bowl of freshly cooked oatmeal for breakfast is a great way to start your day off right. Oatmeal has the highest satiety ranking of any food, and eating them early in the day has been shown to reduce cravings as well as the number of calories consumed throughout the rest of the day. This is because, unlike most other carbohydrate-rich foods, oatmeal digests slowly and thus helps keep blood sugar on an even keel. Further, oats are a good source of many B vitamins as well as zinc.
Eating eggs for breakfast can reduce cravings later in the day.
Eggs are a great source of B complex vitamins which are known for their ability to control sugar cravings. Eggs are also packed with protein, which helps control food cravings and prevent overeating by making you feel full for longer. Probably the best way to include eggs in the diet is to have them for breakfast: research conducted at the Rochester Centre for Obesity in America found that eating eggs for breakfast could limit the calorie intake throughout the rest of the day by more than 400 calories. With all that and the fact that they taste great too — whether boiled, poached, or scrambled, it is definitely worth including eggs in your diet.
Despite their name, tiger nuts are actually tubers, not nuts. In recent years, dried tiger nuts have become a popular snack among superfood enthusiasts because of their potential weight loss promoting properties documented in studies investigating the health benefits of tiger nuts. The ability of tiger nuts to boost weight loss may be linked, at least partially, to a fatty acid called oleic acid. When it reaches the small intestine, oleic acid turns into oleoylethanolamide, a lipid molecule that has been shown to suppress appetite by activating a brain area that increases the feeling of satiety. If you are interested in giving tiger nuts a try, look for them in the health food stores in your area. If you have trouble finding them in the health food stores near you, not to worry: you can also buy tiger nuts online.
Beans are wonderfully versatile legumes that come in different shapes, sizes, and colors. Yet, they are all tasty and highly nutritious. They should also be an integral part of any nutritional plan designed to stave off sweet cravings. Beans are loaded with protein and fiber — a stellar macronutrient combo for preventing cravings. What's more, beans appear to promote the release of cholecystokinin in the small intestine. Cholecystokinin is a digestive hormone that has appetite suppressant qualities. If your diet is currently low in beans, it is best to add them gradually as they may initially cause intestinal gas.
Eating romaine lettuce may help control sugar cravings due to its high concentration of chromium, a mineral which plays an important role in stabilizing blood sugar levels. In some cases, sugar cravings are simply a result of chromium deficiency. Mild deficiencies in chromium are relatively common in Western countries where consumption of processed foods are common as processing significantly decrease the chromium content of foods. Also physically active people, people who drink lots of coffee or tea, and — interestingly — people who consume high amounts of sugar have an elevated risk of being deficient in chromium.

Q: How to rebase a branch onto an indirect parent branch? I branched from master to feature1 and from feature1 to feature2. But I actually wanted to branch both features off of master. I tried git rebase master but that just yields Current branch feature2 is up to date.
Why doesn't it work as I expect it to?
How can I rebase feature2 to branch off of master?
git init
echo "masterstuff" >> file.txt
git add file.txt && git commit -m "initial commit"
git checkout -b feature1
echo "branch1 specific" >> file.txt
git add file.txt && git commit -m "start of feature1"
git checkout -b feature2
echo "feature2 specific" >> file.txt
git add file.txt && git commit -m "start of feature2"

Now I have
* [master] -- * [feature1] -- * [feature2]

and want
* [master] -- * [feature1]
           \- * [feature2]

A: Assume exactly the "narrative" you have given:
git init
echo "masterstuff" >> file.txt
git add file.txt && git commit -m "initial commit"
git checkout -b feature1
echo "branch1 specific" >> file.txt
git add file.txt && git commit -m "start of feature1"
git checkout -b feature2
echo "feature2 specific" >> file.txt
git add file.txt && git commit -m "start of feature2"

At the point where you leave off your "narrative", where you are still on feature2, you would next say:
git rebase --onto master feature1

You will then (for this particular "narrative") have a conflict to resolve! Resolve it (perhaps by editing file.txt manually), and then
git add file.txt
git rebase --continue

Result:
* 72395ff (HEAD -> feature2) start of feature2
| * b59e979 (feature1) start of feature1
|/
* 2ab1296 (master) initial commit

Before I pressed play, I noticed that the blueberry farmer was smart to use an electric fence. After all, a bear is a strong animal; and nothing can deter bears from entering into gardens or farmland more than electric fencing.
However, I was surprised to learn that the blueberry grower did not use a secondary fence to reinforce the strength of the electric fence system. Spoiler alert: The bear crawls under the electric fence to get to the blueberries - this could have been prevented with an additional fencing system, such as a Solid Lock Fixed Knot Fence with ground stakes to stop the animal from tunneling.
If you are a grower that has a problem with bears, here's what Deerbusters suggests: Repel bears from farms and gardens by installing a Woven Wire Fence with ground stakes and an electric fence to stop the bear. Fixed Knot is the strongest type of metal fence - strong enough to stop bears.


It's not polite to brandish.
So it looks as if LAPD officers will be training in how to deal with folks who have some, ah, mental health issues, prompted (in a timely fashion) by the 1999 shooting death of the homeless woman who was "brandishing" a screwdriver in a threatening manner. NBC 4 story, AP story.
Does brandish in this case mean waving back and forth like you're hypnotizing a snake? Or like the knife fights in bad 1950s "Fear the Teen Gangs" movies where they toss it back and forth between their hands, occasionally jabbing the empty air? Threateningly. Just wondering.
Of course, one hopes the department's next agenda item will be training on how to handle cars with backing up issues. You know, some time in 2011.
uhm yes…aaaand i heard on npr that the training would be conducted ONLINE! distance on the job training is wicked effective.

Last week I saw a surfboard in a local surf shop that I loved. The board was a polyester board ( a Strive 9'2"), but I really am in love with Surf Tech's Tuflite boards which are basically indestructible, so I passed it by. I have had my Surf Tech for over 10 years and it is still in mint condition. I know some of you hate the "pop out " boards but they do last forever and are great to travel with. After I got home from the surf shop I looked on Surf Tech's site and found the board I had seen but a Tuflite model (so I thought). My sweet husband ordered it for me for my birthday and when it arrived it was a polyester board not a Tuflite. So needless to say I was a little bummed but it is a beauty. I feel a little ripped off but it was cheaper and maybe I'll give it a try. The lesson is ask a lot of questions before you order something don't assume anything.

Leah Pritchett Net Worth 2019, Bio, Age, Height, Wiki
Leah Pritchett is a beautiful and talented American drag racer who is currently breaking records while racing for Don Schumacher team and who won eight pro titles until today. She is in top 5 of the most successful female drag racers nowadays.
She was born on May 26, 1988 in a place called Redland, in California in United States. She was given the name Leah Christine Pritchett by her loving parents Ron Pruet and Linda Pruet.
She has only one sibling, a sister named Lindsey Pruett who also became a driver later in her teens. Leah was a true athlete from her early age. She was always on the move and she was involved in several sports.
During high school she was a great athlete and a student so she easily achieved her goal of enrolling the California State University by getting an athlete's scholarship there. Her parents witnessed her racing talent from an early age and this was proven by the fact that she got involved with drag racing when she was only 8 years old.
Pritchett's father was also a drag racer so Leah was on the races from a very early age.
As soon as she was ten years old, in 1998, she became the NHRA Jr. Dragster National Team Champion racing which was a tremendous success for such a young teen.
From 1999 up to 2001 she has earned the title of a Dragster Champion every year. Until 2005 she succeeded in garnering a total of 37 NHRA Jr. Dragster titles which was considered fantastic.
In 2007 she broke an extreme record as the very first woman to succeed in running the elapsed time of 5 seconds. In 2008 she managed to earn her license with the NHRA Nitro Funny Car racing.
In 2009, Leah became world known after breaking the record which was to drive faster than 250 mph at Nitro Nostalgia Funny Car race.
In 2011, Leah decided to switch her team and she joined R2B2 Racing team which was imidiatelly followed by twobwins and earning a Pro Mod License. In 2013, she broke her own personal records in speed and time.
In 2014 and 2015 she has become better and better after every season which eventually led to her winning of her first Top Fuel title in Phoenix.
She was a member of the Bob Vandergriff Racing crew until the spring 2016 when she transferred to Don Schumacher Racing Team.
In February 2016, she has made it to all national news after she made her first national event win of the carrer at NHRA National Championship in Arizona, where she managed to defeat the fabulous Brittany Force.
This event was even more special due to the fact that it was the first time after 1982 that the final round of the event was an all-female round.
This brought high media attention on her and gave her great motivation for continuing to work harder and push herself to her limits.
It also gained her new sponsorship contracts so after this event she was contracted to Mopar (an organization connected to Chrysler Motors), Papa John's Pizza Company and the U.S. Army(which means that she will have great resources in this field).
On her Facebook page, her fans can buy her 'Pritchett Presents' items such as caps and T-shirts with her LP logo.
She has over 130,000 followers on her Instagram account where she regularly posts her photos about cars and races, but she also shows her engagement in benefitiary events, like for example the event to collect funds for 'Riley Children Hospital'.
In 2017, Leah became a member of Don Scumacher racing team and gained three new partners. Through the year, she has won four times at national events.
She was never involved in any controversy but it is known that she was involved in the feud with a man named Steve Torrence. The argument took place at the Thunder Valley National competition.
It is also clear that she has an ongoing beef with Brittany Force, a current No.1 drag racer because Leah want to get her off her throne and take her place as No.1.
From 2018, an American beverage company called "Sparkling Ice" became her new sponsor and their logo will be put on her dragster and her suit.
She lives in a town named Avon together with her husband Gary Pritchett who works as a general car chief in Top Fuel professional organization.
The two of them met on the race in Gainesville, Florida in 2011, and got married in 2013. They have worked together untul she was pulled out of Vandergriff Racing Team so they are oponents on the track now.
Gary says that it can be very confusing for him since he wants his wife to win but also wants his team to win.
Leah hasn't got such problems since she is very ambitious and wants always to come up first.
They got married in 2013 and live with their personal life hidden away from the media. They sometimes post photos on their social media accounts but they try not to let their workplaces influence their life together.
They have no children yet, and aren't planning them soon since she is on the top of her game now.
She has a strong relationship with her mother but isn't that close with her father. She used to have a better relationship with him since he was the one who made her enter the racing world but it seems that they are not as close today.
Her father is Ron Pruett, a drag racer who helped her get into the world of racing. He still holds the world record for land speed.
He owns and drives a Thinderbird car which is considered to be the world's fastes car in this model.
Leah's sister Lindsey was also a competitor in drag races for Jr. Dragster series and Leah joined her to become one of the most prosperous junior drivers.
Leah and her husband are very active in NHRA (Nationa Hot Rod Association) and they don't work together.
He is in Steve Torrence team which is one of Pritchett's biggest rivals in Top Fuel. She comes second after him in a lot of races and it drives her crazy.
Outside racing, she likes to get dressed and go out somewhere fancy or on an event to move away from dominantly male world.

Lin-Manuel Miranda Biography: New!
June 12, 2016 | By Fritz Holznagel
(Photo: Joan Marcus)
Our Lin-Manuel Miranda biography is now live.
Who is Lin-Manuel Miranda? Only the certified genius who created, wrote and stars in the Broadway mega-show Hamilton. And also the Tony-winning writer and star of In The Heights, which ran for 1,184 performances on Broadway from 2008-11.
And Lin-Manuel Miranda is also the guy expected to win a bunch of Tony Awards tonight. Hamilton won a record 16 nominations overall, and Miranda is up for four himself: for best actor in a musical, best book, best score and best musical.
[ Update: Hamilton won 11 Tonys, with Lin-Manuel Miranda winning three of those for best book, best score and best musical. His co-star Leslie Odom, Jr., who plays Hamilton's rival Aaron Burr, won for leading actor in a musical. ]
(Photo: John D. & Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation)
All of this by age 36, by the way. Lin-Manuel Miranda was born in New York City in 1980, and began writing In The Heights while he was still a student at Wesleyan University.
That show was based on the colors and flavors of his childhood neighborhood, Washington Heights, the immigrant-heavy district at the northern tip of Manhattan. Miranda (center in the photo above) played Usnavi, the bodega owner who is the show's central character.
The show won Miranda his first Tony Awards (for best musical and best original score). But by the time it hit Broadway, he was already on the trail of Hamilton. The story is well-known now: on a vacation to Mexico, Miranda began reading Ron Chernow's mammoth biography of Alexander Hamilton, the founding father and first Secretary of the Treasury who died young in a duel with Aaron Burr. In a true stroke of genius, Miranda recognized the kinship between the scrappy, ambitious Founding Father and the scrappy, ambitious rappers, hip-hop stars and immigrants of today. He began writing snippets of songs, which at first he called "the Hamilton mixtape."
To remember how audacious this idea was, go back to Miranda's performance at the White House Poetry Jam in 2009, not long after Barack Obama became president. Jump forward to the 2:10 mark and listen to the audience laugh out loud as Miranda drops the line "Alexander Hamilton — his name is Alexander Hamilton."
OK, it was a funny idea. Also so very smart.
This March, Lin-Manuel Miranda was back at the White House for an encore, this time with the cast of his smash Broadway show. Jump forward to the 8:45 mark for their stirring rendition of the show's big tune, "My Shot." Wow.
On that same trip, Miranda did some freestyle rapping with POTUS in Rose Garden. Not something that was typically seen in the Hoover or Eisenhower administrations.
It's hard to overstate Miranda's achievements. Besides the 16 Tony nominations for Hamilton, Miranda was given a MacArthur Foundation "genius grant" last year, and this year he won the prestigious Pulitzer Prize for Drama. He's also a genius at Twitter, keeping up a steady stream of chatter, fan interactions and fun on his feed. He's on a roll. Congratulations to him!

Because the Bible says so, I believe that one day Christ will return and at last (praise God) every tear shall be wiped away and all this killing will end. But elaborate end-times scenarios that conveniently involve apocalyptic warfare in the Middle East repulse me, for two reasons. One is that they are speculative creations that go beyond the Bible's own specific teachings. The other is that they cut the nerve of moral effort to make peace and work for justice right here and right now.
Seven hundred thousand out of a total Lebanese population of 3.5 million, 20 percent of the population, mostly Shiites, are now being cared for and given refuge by mostly Christian schools, churches, and other humanitarian organizations. This is the story of the Good Samaritan at a mega scale! And to think that this is the outcome of a strategy that meant to rouse anti-Hezbollah feelings among the Lebanese population and government. Talk about a failed strategy! Of course, this has happened so many times before that any thoughtful tactician would have learned the lesson by now, but military muscle is always too hedonistic and narcissistic to listen to the voice of reason and history.
← Disproportionate, maybe. Disastrous, certainly.

In flood's wake, vegetable farmer calling it quits
HOLLANDALE, Minn. -- Gerald Edwards is calling it quits.
Last week's flooding has destroyed all of his potato and onion crops, and most of his carrots. So Edwards, 50, said he's getting out of the vegetable farming business that his grandfather started, and will now concentrate on corn and soybeans.
"It's kind of hard to be the one to pull the plug, but the reality is that I'm just not willing to risk it anymore," he said.
Edwards, who said he has survived four floods since 1991, said he had about 700 acres of potatoes, onions, and carrots in fields scattered in every direction from this town of 300 about 13 miles northwest of Austin.
While he didn't want to put a dollar figure on his losses, he said 70 percent of his fields are totally submerged, and the rest are so waterlogged that the vegetables will rot before they can be harvested.
Edwards is one of six vegetable grower-members of the Hollandale Marketing Association, the co-op that handles their potatoes and onions. Its general manager, Larry Forster, said, "the flood raises real questions about the co-op's ability to survive."
The co-op was founded in 1926, around the same time ditches were dug to turn the area from swamp into farmland. On Friday, the area again looked something like swamp, with water filling the ditches in town and covering many of the surrounding fields.
Last year, Forster said the co-op shipped 600 semitrailer loads of potatoes, and they expected to ship 120 loads of onions this year. But he said they'll ship only about 35 loads of potatoes and 35 of onions -- just what could be harvested before the rains came.
"The potatoes and the onions and carrots that remain in the fields are probably going to be a 100 percent loss," Forster said.
Some processors that contract for sweet corn in the area are hopeful some of that crop can be salvaged, Forster said. But local farmers aren't so sure.

It seems curious that this doesn't happen more often. Many cities have a single "gallery night" of the month and organize their exhibitions to open and close around these highly attended events. While New York City is too big for such a feat of organization, it would seem advantageous for gallery-intensive neighborhoods to do this.
Dumbo is doing a good job with their "First Thursday" opening schedule. Participating galleries include Smack Mellon, the Dumbo Art Center, the Galleries at 111 Front Street (like the A.I.R. Gallery, Amos Eno, Central Booking) and more. Williamsburg is trying as well–many galleries are having their openings on Fridays, but not all and not the same Friday.
