Over the past couple of months, people have been asking me various forms of the question, "How is married life?" In response, I always tell them that marriage is great! My wife has definitely enhanced my life and I think we're off to a great start. I've only been married for 2 and half months, so I realize I'm not an expert in any sense of the word. I just wanted to highlight a few of things that I think help marriages to run smoothly.
Be a team – You want to function as a unit. If you're a team then there's no keeping score or competing with one another. You both just want the marriage to be healthy and successful.
Be adaptable – There will inevitably be things that don't go according to plan. That's ok. If you're adaptable, those unexpected events can be opportunities for growth and learning.
Be forgiving – if you come into marriage knowing that neither you nor your spouse is perfect, you should also come ready to forgive. Be proactive about extending grace to your spouse in the midst of their shortcomings and trust that you will receive the same from them.
These are just a few of the ideas that I think have helped my wife and I.
What are some of your marriage tips?

Matt Sorum Reveals Axl Rose Is The Only 'Clean' GNR Member
NEW YORK, NY - OCTOBER 11: Axl Rose of Guns N' Roses performs onstage during the "Not In This Lifetime..." Tour at Madison Square Garden on October 11, 2017 in New York City. (Photo by Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for Live Nation)
Former GNR drummer Matt Sorum revealed that Axl Rose was the only clean member in the band.
Matt Sorum becomes a world-famous drummer in Guns N' Roses, Velvet Revolver and The Cult. Sorum drops out of school to become a drummer, but turns to selling marijuana to support himself, and later smuggling large amounts of cocaine. When Sorum gets a chance to play in The Cult, he finally manages to make a living as a drummer. The following year, Slash and Duff McKagan recruit Matt to join Guns N' Roses, and with that, Matt's life is transformed. When Axl Rose begins to appear in the recording studio more and more sporadically, sometimes not at all, Matt recounts in detail how he and the band stagger toward the downfall.
Talking with Rolling Stone, Matt Sorum that the only member of the band that was clean of drugs was Axl Rose. This story came out when he was asked that Izzy Stradlin's departure was the main reason why the band only released one album for the past three decades.
Sorum then responded:
"I can't say. Obviously, when I came into the band, there were four original guys. After we went out and became so big, the machine kind of took over. Obviously, we all made decisions that weren't completely clear in our minds based on alcohol and drugs. If anyone was clean, it was Axl. He was always accused of being a worse drug addict than he was. He was actually just trying to steer the ship.

We recently started using Skillshare and love it. You can read about it on Dylan's blog here. A few months ago Dylan saw Leah Goren's Illustration & Inspiration: Keeping a Sketchbook class and showed me because he thought it might be something I'd be interested in. Leah Goren is an illustrator and surface pattern designer. Well, Dylan was right. I really enjoyed watching her class, and I really love all her work and her style. So for Christmas I asked for some new sketchbooks and some gouache paint to experiment with.
I really didn't take advantage of the classes on Skillshare, but now that I knew there were these kinds of classes on there I was anxious to enroll in more. The next one I took was Elizabeth Olwen's Introduction to Designing Repeat Patterns in Illustrator class. I also love love love her style and the colors she uses. That class was very inspiring. She went over the basics of surface pattern design, how to create a repeating pattern, and how to create your own collection of hero, secondary, and blender patterns. Below is the collection I made while taking Elizabeth Olwen's class. I drew it using the Wacom tablet Dylan had hanging around.
Everyone at worked loved my patterns so much that we even got them printed on canvas and hung them up at our coffee station. I also have the patterns up for sale on Spoonflower mostly for personal purposes because I'd love to have an apron or skirt with one of my patterns on it.

Bringing toughness: Slone, Alexander lead inexperienced Rebels in 2016-17
Published 10:09 am Tuesday, November 29, 2016
By Matt Overing
Matt Overing/matthew.overing@amnews.com Bryce Slone is Boyle County's leading returning scorer and will be tasked again with creating on offense for the Rebels this season.
It's a new day for Boyle County basketball without Colton Elkins prowling the paint.
But the Rebels are excited to see what new possibilities are on the horizon this season with an inexperienced but athletic squad.
"I think we're going to be playing a lot quicker this season," junior guard Bryce Slone said. "We've got backups that can come in and take mine and J's spot, last year we didn't have that. We did lose Colton, but Will (Bramel) is going to be a good presence, maybe not as much with blocking, we'll have to play better perimeter defense, but Will will be able to hold his own in the post."
"J" is Jason Alexander Jr. — often referred to as "Baby J." Alexander and Slone are the only two Boyle players who played more than half of the Rebels' games last season. As starters, the pair combined for 22.3 points per game and had the two highest three-point and free-throw percentages on the team. They were the only two Boyle representatives on the 12th Region All-Tournament team.
Bramel is a well-known commodity on the football field, winning the Lineman of the Year award for his dominance as an offensive tackle. But in basketball, Bramel is relatively unknown after spending a majority of last season behind Elkins.
Alexander, Bramel and Slone will be three constants for the Rebels this season. After that, the roster has talent mixed with inexperience.
"After those three, we have our two seniors, who have really been doing well," coach Steve Adams said. "Dylan Frederick and Evan Shields, they just don't have a lot of game experience. But they've been doing a nice job. After those two and the three that have minutes, we're very, very young."
"Really, it'll just depend on how quickly they adapt and learn and continue to get better. With our schedule, especially in December, that's how we'll get better. Once we get through that and learn, we'll know what our weaknesses are. Then we'll continue to work on those through the middle part of our season schedule. Hopefully that'll get us ready so at the end come tournament time, we'll be a seasoned team and ready to make some noise."
Matt Overing/matthew.overing@amnews.com
Boyle County junior Will Bramel makes a pass during practice. Bramel will be the starting center for the Rebels this season after years practicing behind Colton Elkins.
Frederick and Shields are big bodies that could give Bramel a break down low. Adams said Landen Bartleson — a freshman known for his speed on the football field — could also develop into a post player.
"We've moved Dylan Frederick into the post, and we're hoping Landen Bartleson can give us some things there as well," Adams said. "By the end of the year, I think we'll have good depth. Because we don't want Will playing scared or playing not to foul. We just want him playing. I think we'll be better in that situation than a lot of people think."
Bramel's talent on the offensive end will turn some heads this season, Slone said.
"Nobody knows who Will is because he pretty much played JV all last year, he's been on the bench for varsity two years in a row," Slone said. "He would be the only one in practice that could score on Colton last year. He's got a lot of tricks up his sleeve, he'll be able to score a lot this season."
Scoring will be a big question mark for Boyle after losing Elkins and Josiah Robbins in a class of seven seniors. But Alexander said he and Slone have been putting in the work in the offseason with coach Brian Britt at Centre College: About 2-4 hours each day drilling, playing one-on-one, and pickup games with college student-athletes.
"Mainly, I worked out with Coach Britt, me and Bryce, we have a membership over at Centre so we're over there every day working on my shot, working on him getting to the bucket, just trying to add different dimensions to our game for this year," Alexander said. "Last year, I wouldn't say I was comfortable shooting the ball. This year, I feel a lot more comfortable with my jump shot."
Jason Alexander makes a pass during practice. Alexander will be called upon to score more this season after averaging 9.4 points per game last year.
Alexander knows he'll be called upon to score more this season.
"I know that's something I'll have to do this year, I didn't really have to last year because we had Colton, we had Josiah, we had Bryce," he said. "This year, outside of Bryce, we don't really have a scorer. So I know that's a different role I'll have to take on this year and I'm excited to see what I can do in that regard."
Having that confidence is vital for the young players, Slone said.
"It's a mind game a lot of times, that's how it has been for me," he said. "Confidence is huge. Like that first scrimmage game, that helped us gain confidence because it's always good to get a win."
Adams said three freshmen have stood out so far this preseason: Bartleson, Reese Smith and Grant Hotchkiss. Sophomore winger Will Imfield is another talented underclassman that Could see early minutes for the Rebels.
"They're a little bit further ahead than the others, but the freshmen that played in the JV scrimmage did an excellent job," Adams said. "They just like to compete. They don't want to lose. That's bringing a different type of toughness. that we may not have had in the past."
Alexander said the newcomers will bring a different look on offense for the Rebels.
"Quickness, definitely athleticism and speed," he said. "Reese Smith is super quick, Landen is super athletic. I think we'll surprise people with our offense this year. We're not really known to be a good offensive team, we're known to be a good defensive team. But I think we'll surprise people with our offense."
Grant Hotchkiss is one of three freshmen who coach Steve Adams said are standing out early on for the Rebels.
But it always comes back to toughness for Boyle. The Rebels won't always have the size or skill advantage, but Adams wants the "toughness" advantage each night.
"When we say toughness, we don't necessarily mean "tough" where you're fighting people or beating people up, being physical," he said. "We're talking both mental and physical toughness, where we make the right play and are in the right position consistently and doing the right things. Making the tough plays when they need to be made. We try to put the kids in a position every day where it's pretty tough on them so they get used to being in tough situations. Hopefully when we get into game situations, it's a little bit easier."

Employment Law Worldview
NLRB Issues Important Decision Narrowing What Constitutes "Protected Concerted Activity" (US)
Majority Rules That Skycap's Complaint About Bad Tipping Was Not Protected Concerted Activity
The National Labor Relations Board ("NLRB" or "Board") kicked off 2019 with an important decision that significantly narrowed the standard for when an individual employee's conduct will be found to be "protected concerted activity" under the National Labor Relations Act ("NLRA" or "Act"). In so doing, the Republican-majority Board took another step towards restoring the pre-Obama era conservativism to the NLRB's interpretation and application of the Act. In Alstate Maintenance, LLC, the Board held that an individual employee's complaint to his manager about customer tipping was not protected concerted activity under the Act even though the complaint was made in front of other employees. In reaching this decision, the Board overruled prior case law and significantly narrowed the category of behaviors regarded as "concerted activity" protected under the NLRA.
The core guarantee of rights in the NLRA is in Section 7, which provides employees the right to engage in "concerted activities for the purpose of collective bargaining or other mutual aid and protection." Generally speaking, "concerted activity" is considered to be action taken: 1) by a group of employees together; 2) by one individual who is authorized to act on behalf of other employees; or 3) by an individual who is attempting to induce other employees to engage in group activity.
In Alstate, when asked by management to assist a traveling international soccer team with their luggage, skycap Greenidge complained – in front of co-workers – to his supervisor that the skycaps had performed a similar job the prior year for the team but had received no tip. The supervisor promised to raise Greenidge's concern with airline and airport management, and did subsequently did so. After raising his complaint, Greenidge and his co-workers delayed, but ultimately acquiesced, in assisting the soccer team with its luggage and equipment. However, upon review of the incident, Alstate, Greenidge's employer, terminated Greenidge's employment because he was "indifferent to the customer" and made "verbal comments in front of other skycaps" about the job, complaining about the possibility of not getting a tip.
Despite the fact that it occurred in a group setting, a three-member Board majority (Chairman Ring and Members Emanuel and Kaplan) found that Greenidge's complaint about the possibility of not getting a tip was not NLRA-protected concerted activity because it was a "mere gripe," not a complaint made on behalf of, or to induce action by, his co-workers. As part of its analysis, the Board expressly overruled its 2011 decision in WorldMark by Wyndham. In WorldMark, a two-member Democrat-majority Board found (over the dissent of Republican Member Hayes) that an individual employee's comments made during a meeting about a new dress code policy were protected concerted activity because "an employee who protests publicly in a group meeting is engaged in initiating group action." The majority in Alstate rejected this "per se rule" that protests in group settings are always protected concerted activity, explaining that it "conflate[s] the concepts of group setting and group complaints." It reemphasized that simply making a complaint in the presence of others does not, standing alone, define the character of the activity, and that determining whether an employee has engaged in protected concerted activity requires consideration of all of the surrounding facts.
The Alstate Board identified the following factors that it stated would tend to support an inference that an employee's protest was intended to induce group action and therefore is concerted: 1) the statement was made in an employee meeting called by the employer to announce a decision affecting a term or condition of employment; 2) the decision affects multiple employees attending the meeting; 3) the employee who speaks up in response to the announcement did so to protest or complain about the decision, not merely to ask questions about how the decision has been or will be implemented; 4) the speaker protested or complained about the decision's effect on the work force generally or some portion of the work force, not solely him or herself; and 5) the meeting was the first opportunity to address the decision (i.e., there was no opportunity to discuss with co-workers beforehand). In a footnote, the Board explained that not all of these factors are required to support an inference that an employee is seeking to initiate or induce group action, and that the question remains "a factual one based on the totality of the circumstances."
In reaching its decision that Greenidge's protest was not "for the purpose of mutual aid or protection," the Board majority relied heavily on the fact that his complaint was not about his employer's tipping policy or practices, but rather the amount of a single tip received the year prior, which the Board noted, the employer had no control over.
The Board's majority decision was harshly criticized by Board Member Lauren McFerran (D), who delivered a scathing dissent that called the decision "an excess of zeal" to "roll back existing precedent." The dissent concluded that because Greenidge's complaint took place in front of other employees, and because the employer clearly regarded the complaint as inducing action by others (which the dissent states was evidenced by the fact that Alstate blamed Greenidge's comment for the skycaps' "indifference" to the soccer team customer), Greenidge's complaint "objectively" induced action by other employees. The dissent further found that because "tips are regarded as wages, even when the employer is not the sources of those tips," an employee's complaint about tips constitutes a complaint about the terms and conditions of employment and, in Greenidge's case, where (among other factors) the tip was shared, the comment was made for the mutual benefit and protection of his coworkers.
Ultimately, both the majority decision and the dissent in Alstate focused heavily on an analysis of the specific facts at issue, however, there is no doubt that, despite its factual nuances, the broader implication of this decision is its part in a series of actions withdrawing from the prior Board's liberal application of the NLRA (see our prior post here). Under the analytical framework applied by the prior Democrat-majority Obama NLRB, it appeared that nearly any action by an individual worker that had any relation to a work-related matter that could be of interest to other employees was considered protected concerted activity, i.e., the now-overruled WorldMark by Wyndham standard. Alstate signals that the Republican-majority Trump-appointed NLRB is taking a harder line and will not be equally liberal in its interpretations.

Simmba 2nd Friday 8th Day Box Office Collection
byTeam Talking Moviez - January 05, 2019
Simmba 2nd Friday 8th Day Box Office Collection is 9.02 crore. The Eight Day (Second Friday) Collections takes the 8 days total business of the film to a huge 159.83 crore. The film could now become a Blockbuster if it trends well in the third and fourth week too.
The film has held up quite well on its second Friday with a 55 % drop from its first Friday and that is a superb trend for a big masala film. The film should be eyeing a 35-40 crore second weekend and 55-60 crore plus second week at the box office.
The film will beat the numbers of Race 3 on Saturday and 2.0 by Monday to emerge the third highest grosser of 2018. The film will be the second consecutive 200 crore films for Rohit Shetty and Ranveer Singh after Golmaal Again and Padmaavat respectively.
The film should emerge the highest grosser for Rohit Shetty by the end of second week in worst case scenario. In totality, this is the third 200 crore film for Rohit Shetty whereas second for Ranveer Singh. The film has an outside chance of coming close to 250 crore mark but that depends on treding in the third and fourth week at the box office.
The film is now scoring in all the major Hindi belt territories like Mumbai, Gujarat, Delhi - UP, Punjab, CP-Berar, Rajasthan, Bihar, West Bengal etc.The film is set for a long run for almost couple of more weeks in these territories because of limited competition at the box office.
First Week - 150.81 crore
2nd Friday - 9.02 crore
Total (after 8 Days) - 159.83 crore

Q: PHP http_build_query with two array keys that are same I want to construct this url using http_build_query:
https://www.googleapis.com/freebase/v1/topic/m/0d6lp?filter=/common/topic/notable_for&filter=/common/topic/alias

Please note that the "filter=" parameter comes twice in the url, to specify two filters.
I tried to do it this way but having a problem:
$service_url = 'https://www.googleapis.com/freebase/v1/topic';
$mid = '/m/0d6lp';
$params = array('filter' => '/common/topic/notable_for', 'filter' =>   '/common/topic/alias');
$url = $service_url . $mid . '?' . http_build_query($params);

The problem is as 'filter' array key repeats twice, only the last parameter appears in the http_build_query. How do I construct the original url with two filters?

A: The problem here of course is that every key in a PHP array (hash) can only have one value. Intrinsically, a PHP hash is not a good representation of a querystring, because the query string has an order and has no constraints about the uniqueness of the keys.
To combat this, you'll need a special querystring builder that can handle duplicate keys:
class QueryString {
    private $parts = array();

    public function add($key, $value) {
        $this->parts[] = array(
            'key'   => $key,
            'value' => $value
        );
    }

    public function build($separator = '&', $equals = '=') {
        $queryString = array();

        foreach($this->parts as $part) {
            $queryString[] = urlencode($part['key']) . $equals . urlencode($part['value']);
        }

        return implode($separator, $queryString);
    }

    public function __toString() {
        return $this->build();
    }
}

Example usage (Codepad Demo):
$qs = new QueryString();
$qs->add('filter', '1');
$qs->add('filter', '2');
var_dump($qs->build()); // filter=1&filter=2

A: I have extended @Bailey Parker's answer to handle the issue raised in the first comment to his answer. This code will create query string where one key has multiple values and both values will be preserved using []
class QueryString
{
        private $parts = array();

        public function add($key, $value) {
                if(empty($value))return;
                if(is_array($value))
                {
                        foreach ($value as $v)
                                $this->add($key,$v);
                }
                else
                {
                        $this->parts[$key][] = $value;
                }

        }

        public function build($separator = '&', $equals = '=') {
                $queryString = array();

                $parts = array();
                foreach($this->parts as $key=>$value)
                {
                        if(count($value) > 1)
                                $parts[$key] = $value;
                        else
                                $parts[$key] = $value[0];
                }
                $query = http_build_query($parts);
                return preg_replace('/%5B(?:[0-9]|[1-9][0-9]+)%5D=/', '[]=', $query);;

        }

        public function __toString() {
                return $this->build();
        }

}

this code can also accept an array of values for a particular key
$qs = new QueryString();
$qs->add('trialId', array('1','2'));
$qs->add('packageId', '12');
$qs->add('frequencyId', '4');
var_dump($qs->build());

This class will produce normal query string, with the key having multiple values added with [] sign, the output will be like this
?frequencyId=4&packageId=12&trialId[]=1&trialId[]=2

A: *

*You cannot store in accoc array two or more values with one index.

*Api does not take values like filter[]
So, I suggest you to create your own function to build that query.

A: Not the best solution, but I have a workaround:
$item = [
   'key1' => array('value1','value2'),
   'key2' => array('value3','value4')
];

$array=[
    'aaa' => 'aaa',
    'null' => 'null&'.preg_replace('/%5B(?:[0-9]|[1-9][0-9]+)%5D=/', '=', http_build_query($item,null,'&')),
    'zzz' => 'zzz'
];

echo urldecode(http_build_query($array));

Output:

aaa=aaa&null=null&key1=value1&key1=value2&key2=value3&key2=value4&zzz=zzz

WARNING: probably this won't work cause url will be:
aaa=aaa&null=null%26key1%3Dvalue1%26key1%3Dvalue2%26key2%3Dvalue3%26key2%3Dvalue4&zzz=zzz
EDIT:
Other option will be preg the result before assign it to the url:
preg_replace('/%5B(?:[0-9]|[1-9][0-9]+)%5D=/', '=', http_build_query($item))

output:

key1=value1&key1=value2&key2=value3&key2=value4

Now Penelope wanders the underworld, spinning a different kind of thread: her own side of the story - a tale of lust, greed and murder.

Mourdock up 10 over Lugar, 48/38, four days before Indiana primary
Ed MorrisseyPosted at 10:41 am on May 4, 2012
Indystar calls this latest poll result a "dramatic slide," and is it ever. Incumbent Senator Dick Lugar led the race in the last iteration of the Howey/DePauw poll by seven points. Today, he's trailing by ten, and Lugar has only four days to turn it around:
The Howey/DePauw Indiana Battleground Poll, conducted by two prominent Republican and Democratic pollsters, shows Mourdock with a 48 percent to 38 percent lead over Lugar. …
The poll shows a dramatic slide for Lugar, who in his last election in 2006 won with more than 80 percent of the vote after Democrats considered him so unbeatable that they didn't field a candidate against him.
Only about a month ago, a Howey/DePauw Battleground poll showed Lugar leading Mourdock 42 percent to 35 percent.
When voters who were not solid in their support for a candidate yet and were merely leaning in one direction or the other are removed, Mourdock is still leading 43 percent to 35 percent over Lugar.
Just a month ago, the Howey/DePauw survey was good enough to get analysts believing that Lugar could hold serve on Tuesday:
U.S. Sen. Dick Lugar is in the most precarious position of his political career since autumn 1974 when he unsuccessfully challenged Democratic incumbent Birch Bayh. A Howey/DePauw Indiana Battleground Poll released today reveals Lugar with a 42-35% lead over Indiana Treasurer Richard Mourdock, with the two evenly splitting the vote among the 72% of primary voters identifying with the GOP. It has prompted HPI to move this race into "tossup" from "Leans Lugar."
The poll by Republican pollster Christine Matthews of Bellwether Research and Democrat pollster Fred Yang of Garin-Hart-Yang Research Group, was conducted March 26-28 of 503 likely Republican primary voters and March 26 -27 of 503 likely Indiana general election voters. It has a +/-4.5% margin of error.
The polling came after Lugar had experienced a terrible week. He took broadside headlines related to the residency issue in the week before the polling, with the Democratic Marion County Election Board denying the voting address he had used since joining the Senate in the late 70's. The three days of polling coincided with the beginning of a statewide Club for Growth TV assault ad branding Lugar as a big tax and spender who loves earmarks.
That's a seventeen-point turnaround for the six-term incumbent, which is dramatic indeed. Now it looks like Lugar might make history in an entirely negative way:
Indiana's primary will be held next Tuesday in a race where ads sponsored by a pro-Lugar PAC have recently been pulled – suggesting the intraparty coup many have suspected would befall the longtime member of the Senate will indeed come to fruition.
In the 2010 cycle, Republicans saw three-term Utah Senator Bob Bennett and two-term Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski fall in the GOP convention/primary process, while five-term Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter switched parties knowing full well that he would lose his primary to eventual general election winner, Pat Toomey. (Murkowski ultimately retained her seat through a write-in campaign).
But if Senator Lugar loses next Tuesday, he'll join an exclusive club with a current membership of just one.
A Smart Politics review of U.S. Senate election data finds that if Dick Lugar loses the Indiana Republican primary election on May 8th, he will become just the second six-term U.S. Senator – and the first Republican – to fail in his renomination bid in the direct election era of the past 100 years.
Be sure to follow the link to learn the trivia answer as to who the other club member would be.
If Lugar loses by this kind of margin on Tuesday, he won't be the only one embarrassed by the loss. Outgoing Governor Mitch Daniels has campaigned for Lugar, especially over the last few weeks, cutting TV ads for Lugar's campaign. A loss would also be a rebuke to Daniels, and could hurt his standing in the GOP down the road with the grassroots and the establishment. Gubernatorial candidate Mike Pence was smarter, refusing two months ago to endorse anyone in the Senate primary:
"I've known both men and respected both men for more than 20 years, and I think that when you have two good choices in a primary, you ought to let voters decide," he said. "I consider Richard Lugar a mentor and a friend, and Richard Mourdock is someone I have admired as well."
A Mourdock victory would be a triumph for the Tea Party, which also forced Orrin Hatch into a primary in Utah, if only barely. That would belie the media narrative these days that the Tea Party has run out of gas. They obviously haven't in Indiana.
Update: Here's a prediction from Twitter follower Schwabcycler: "Bet Lugar pulls a Specter." Or perhaps a Lieberman? Hmmmmm.

Different people define Entity, Model, ViewModel and DataModel in different ways. However, these terms may sometimes differ from their actual meaning, based upon the context. In this post I would like to share my understanding of these terms.
An entity is the tabular representation of your domain class/object in the database and has an identity. In fact, an entity represents a single instance of your domain object saved into the database as a record. It has some attributes that we represent as columns in our tables.
For instance, in order to represent a Customer as an entity, it must have some attributes like CustomerId, CustomerName, Address and many more depending on the context. Consequently, these attributes form the columns of our Customer table. And therefore, each customer data that you save in the table, represents a customer entity.
People often confuse entity with model. However, these two are quite different. A model typically represents a real world object that is related to the problem or domain space.
In programming, we create classes to represent them. These classes, known as models, have some properties and methods (defining objects behavior) in a particular domain space. For instance, in any customer oriented problem, we may have a customer class that has some properties and methods.
In some ORM (Object Relational Mapper) frameworks, a model is tightly bound to an entity. This means that every scalar property maps to an entity attribute. However, if you are familiar with Entity Framework, you must know that, not all properties in your domain class map to an entity column. And that's one way in which an entity is different from a model.
The term ViewModel originates from the MVVM design pattern. A view has the responsibility of rendering data typically coming from an object. However, there are instances in which the data for the view comes from two different objects.
In such scenarios, we create a model class which consists of all properties required by the view. Different domain model instances then initialize this object. It's not a domain model but a ViewModel because, a specific view uses it. Also, it doesn't represent a real world object.
The models in a particular domain space represent the real world objects. In order to solve a problem, these objects interact with each other. Some objects share a relationship among them and consequently, form a data model that represents the objects and the relationship between them. Click here to know more about object relationships.
In an application managing customer orders, for instance, if we have a customer and order object then these objects share a many to many relationship between them. The data model is eventually dependent on the way our objects interact with each other. In a database, we see the data model as a network of tables referring to some other tables.
We can find different definitions of these terms at different places. However, through this post I just shared my opinion about the same. It would be great to receive any feedback on this topic. Please do share your opinion through comments.

Gaming's going to take crypto to the mainstream – Polemos CEO
Polemos, the company behind the blockchain-based GameFi esports platform, is looking to gaming to pull crypto into the mainstream.
Speaking with Stockhead, the CEO and co-founder of Polemos, Sascha Zehe, pointed to the sheer number of gamers, and the number of games being launched with blockchain-enabled technology in 2021, as a legitimising force that will help the legitimacy of crypto across all markets.
"Play-to-earn [P2E] blockchain games are the first real-world use case for crypto for the mainstream. Given that there are an estimated more than 3.2 billion gamers worldwide, and the number of those gamers playing play-to-earn games currently is less than five million, the market potential is massive," Zehe said in the interview.
"In the years ahead, the number of new P2E games launching will be staggering."
There are two particular benefits to gamers that those investing in blockchain technology are keen to sell: one is the ability for blockchain-enabled games to generate assets and revenue back to the player.
Zehe, in the interview, points to an example where a company – Asian Logic – actually allows its workforce to play blockchain games on work computers for this reason: "We believe we have a real differentiator through our relationship with Asian Logic, which is one of the largest gaming companies globally with 5,000+ employees," Zeha said. "This is big – for both Polemos and Illuvium – and that's because Asian Logic is permitting its workforce to become Polemos guild members and make use of their work computers to play Illuvium."
The other significant benefit is the idea that a player's assets can be transferred from one game to another. Currently, if you earn a rare reward or piece of equipment in a game, it is locked to that game. What some developers and publishers are exploring is the idea that the piece of equipment could be placed on the blockchain and therefore transferred from one game to the next.
Polemos is looking to close its round of seed funding in the first quarter of 2022, so its enthusiasm for the future of blockchain gaming is naturally based on the company's self-interest. Zehe argues that the number of games being released with blockchain features will push mass adoption, and there is certainly evidence to suggest this is the case. In a letter released on New Year's Day, one of Japan's biggest game producers, Square Enix, made it clear that it wants to see NFTs become a major trend in games. This follows on from major western publishers, including Ubisoft, EA and Activision, taking steps towards blockchain gaming last year.
However, it's important to also note that there is significant resistance to these things in mainstream gaming culture currently. Ubisoft received an overwhelmingly negative response to its first foray into NFT-enabled games.
From this, it is clear that blockchain companies have a lot of PR and education work to do yet before those billions of gamers become a viable market for the industry.

The Citation of Attendance provides primary source documentation of the student's attendance at the Litchfield Female Academy and/or the Litchfield Law School. If a citation is absent, the student is thought to have attended but currently lacks primary source confirmation.
Records for the schools were sporadic, especially in the formative years of both institutions. If instructors kept comprehensive records for the Litchfield Female Academy or the Litchfield Law School, they do not survive. Researchers and staff have identified students through letters, diaries, family histories and genealogies, and town histories as well as catalogues of students printed in various years. Art and needlework have provided further identification of Female Academy Students, and Litchfield County Bar records document a number of Law School students. The history of both schools and the identification of the students who attended them owe credit to the early 20th century research and documentation efforts of Emily Noyes Vanderpoel and Samuel Fisher, and the late 20th century research and documentation efforts of Lynne Templeton Brickley and the Litchfield Historical Society staff.

Dear St. John's Family,
Thank you for your patience, support, and continued patience as we learn how to live and worship in a COVID-19 world.
Due to the rising numbers of positive cases and hospitalizations, our state is continuing in Phase 2. In light of those facts, along with our call to do no harm, we would like to remind everyone to continue to do a self-health check if you are considering worshiping in-person with us. As always, we encourage anyone who does not feel well to worship with us online, using one of the available streaming services (Facebook, Vimeo, YouTube, or our website).
For those who feel comfortable with in-person worship, we are asking you to bring your phone to church! No, we don't want you texting or playing games, we want you to be able to register your attendance. With your phone, you will scan a QR code found at your pew, which will take you to a brief online form. We ask that you complete this registration form each time you attend in-person, as this helps with contact-tracing.
If you do not have a smartphone, please let a greeter know when you enter the narthex; they will write down your name, email and/or a cell number for contact tracing purposes. Below, please find detailed instructions for our new contactless registration process, utilizing QR codes. (The QR codes will be posted within the pews.)
With iPhones:
Please open the camera on your phone. You DO NOT have to take a picture of the QR code.
Hover over the QR code. Once your phone has "captured" the code, a banner or icon will appear at the top of the screen.
Please click on the banner/icon. You will be directed to a form to complete.
If you are not redirected to a form, please attempt to rescan the code.
With Android phones:
Open your Camera app and point it steadily for 2-3 seconds towards the QR code.
Whenever scanning is enabled, a notification will appear.
If nothing happens, you may have to go to your Settings app and enable QR Code scanning.
If QR Codes isn't an option in your settings, your device unfortunately can't scan QR Codes natively. You will have to download a third-party QR Code reader app.
Android users can read this article to discover the best way to scan QR codes on your specific android phone.
Again, thank you for your support.
With Grace,

Returning to Worship in the Sanctuary
The COVID-19 Task Force has determined we can safely return to the sanctuary for worship without compromising any of the safety protocols established during our original return to in-person worship.
Like Abram, who lived in Egypt for a while (Gen 12), we too have been gathering in the Family Life Center to worship for a season. In the New Year, however, we will be returning to the sanctuary AND to our "usual" worship times at 8:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. beginning January 3, 2021.
It will be so good to return to some of our routines, but we will continue to practice social distancing, wearing masks, self monitoring our health, and maintaining protocols to keep each other safe. For those unable to worship with us in-person, we will continue to livestream our services online.
An overview of our protocols for worshipping in the sanctuary can be found here. We will enter the sanctuary through the Narthex. Seating will look different, as we will utilize every third pew. We will also adjust seating between services to ensure different pews are occupied during the 8:30 and 11:00 service.
The 8:30 a.m. service will include Communion each week, whereas the 11:00 a.m. service will include Communion on the first Sunday of each month. We will offer Drive-Thru Communion at a new time of 9:45-10:45 a.m. on the first Sunday of each month, as well.
If you are considering worshiping in-person with us, please be aware of your health and the well-being of others before arriving. If you have been traveling or have expanded your "social bubble" recently, worshiping online is advised. We are so thankful for how everyone has been careful to follow our protocols.
We have updated our Frequently Asked Questions, which can be found here. We continue to adhere to the Wesleyan tradition of "do no harm." We remain together in spirit.
With Grace & Peace,
Read our updated Frequently Asked Questions page for additional information, and you may download Sanctuary Worship Protocols as a PDF here.
Many adult classes and small groups are currently meeting online. (A list of small groups meeting via Zoom with contact information for organizers can be downloaded here.) In order to continue practicing safe social distancing protocols, groups who wish to meet in person will have to contact the church office to reserve space. The operation of The Shepherd's Market will not be altered for small groups.

Well, this is interesting - making progress with my #hubzilla install - #diaspora can see the accounts, but not interact with them, #mastodon and #gnusocial can see and interact with accounts, but never receive anything back, and Hubzilla can only see people on other networks who are contacts, but can't interact with them.
Just had to nuke the test #hubzilla installation - something was badly wrong, but I couldn't figure out what.
It was sending emails, and #gnusocial could see/follow/comment the various channels/accounts I set up, but nothing else could - #diaspora, #mastodon, #pleroma, even other Hubzillas!
Hell, the different channels couldn't even see each other, let alone communicate!
Well, that was fun - reading the installation notes for Hubzilla, and they keep going on about how you can install it on just about any server that can run WordPress - it's just a pity that there are 2 PHP extensions that are essential for Hubzilla, none of which I can modify through php.ini on my shared hosting.
Just put in a support ticket, but it is Friday night, they are unlikely to do anything non-systems-critical until Monday, by which time I will have forgotten about then whole thing!
installed GNUsoc on a subdomain on my site, instructions say to set up permissions on certain directories with "chmod g+w" - unfortunately, I don't have SSH access, and Filezilla only accepts octals - so would the equivalent be setting perms to 020?
Or am I reading this entirely wrong?
@dansup Are you still working on that #activitypub plugin for GNUsocial?
If you are an EU citizen or resident, please share your opinions on daylight savings in this public survey.
We need a Mozilla for the fediverse.
A non-profit dedicated to incubating, organizing and maintaining ActivityPub projects like pixelfed and others.
I would transfer to such an organization!
Doing some research for this years CampNaNoWriMo, and I discover that the mythical Mexican creature, El Chupacabra, doesn't date back anywhere near as far back as I thought - indeed, the first sightings date back to 1995, and it's name (meaning Goat Sucker)came from a joke about the myth by a Mexican comedian!
Okay, me - you got up an hour after your alarm went off, you have to leave for work in 10 minutes, and you haven't got dressed or had breakfast yet - put the #fediverse down and GO!!
Considering moving home, possibly to mastodon.host, mostly for the #peertube and #funkwhale integration.
Does anyone kniow of a simple guide to creating an Infobox in MediaWiki?
That was a strange one - installed Wine using Lubuntu's package manager, but it failed to install a load of dependencies, so trying to install anything via Wine chucked up a load of errors before failing.
Finally managed to install Scrivener, but now if I launch it via command line, it opens but throws up an error about not being able to find wine-gecko.

Ridiculous Fishing – excellent fishing arcade, the originality of which is visible in everything from graphics to gameplay. You have to play the role of an old but professional angler.
However, the game is not limited to only ordinary catching fish on the hook. It is not enough to catch the fish on a hook – it needs to be shot in flight. That's how you will fix your next trophy – a control shot from a shotgun. The spectacle is exciting and colorful, especially if your catch is a small fish a few centimeters long. To get into this, you need to make every effort.
Stage 4 – shooting flying fish. Throw in the air all the caught fish and, armed with a shotgun, start shooting them. The number of dollars will increase with every hit.
In the game, there are improvements and upgrades that will make the fishing procedure even more exciting and interesting.
