Q: Connection with Mogodb Good morning. I have a problem connecting to a MongoDB database. I have configured myself a database and mongo express in docker-compose.yml file. Using CommandLineRunner, I want to add sample data to the database and then the connection is rejected.
Main class
@SpringBootApplication
public class MongoDbApplication {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(MongoDbApplication.class, args);
    }

    @Bean
    public CommandLineRunner run(StudentRepository studentRepository) {
        return args -> {
            Address address = new Address("Poland", "00-000", "Warszawa");
            Student student = new Student("Grzegorz", "Grzegorzewski", "grzegorz.grzegorzewski@gmail.com",
                    Gender.MALE, address, List.of("Street workout"), BigDecimal.TEN, LocalDateTime.now());
            studentRepository.insert(student);
        };
    }
}

Orton-Gillingham Multisensory Reading Practicum I is comprised of 45 hours of coursework plus 12 supervised practicum sessions. In summer courses, this practicum is held at a summer school and participants tutor students using Orton-Gillingham lessons they develop under guidance/supervision of a master teacher. In courses held during the school-year, the practicum participants tutor one of their own students completing a minimum of sixteen lessons under the guidance/supervision of a master teacher who visits their site twelve times.
This Orton-Gillingham course focuses on the phonology, orthography and structure of the English language; takes a comprehensive look at how students learn to read and write; and helps teachers to recognize the characteristics of learning disabilities. Teachers learn to plan and implement systematic, explicit, multisensory language instruction that meets the guidelines of the National Reading Panel and has been proven to be most effective in teaching students with Dyslexia and other reading difficulties. Teacher also learn how to incorporate Orton-Gillingham methodology into their core reading program.
After completion of Orton-Gillingham Multisensory Reading Practicum I, participants are highly encouraged to register for Advanced Multisensory Reading Practicum II to receive additional coaching support which will enable them to adapt Orton-Gillingham instruction to their classroom setting and to qualify for Orton-Gillingham certification at the Teaching Level.
To achieve Certification at the Teaching Level, educators must complete Practicum I with a grade of B or higher and successfully Practicum II (documenting 60 hours of Orton-Gillingham instruction with lesson plans and student work over a minimum of 9 months meeting standards for implementation). For more information about IMSLEC-Accredited Certification at the Teaching Level, please contact us.
Three semester hours graduate credit from Mount St. Joseph University is available.
An undergraduate degree is required and a strong background in phonological awareness and phonics is recommended.
The practicum is scheduled at participant's own site at times agreed upon with the OG Master Teacher.
$1299 (including materials) for 100 contact hours (summer course) or 70 contact hours (school-year course) from Mayerson Academy.
The cost of this course has been greatly reduced through generous grants from the Smale Family and Charles H. Dater Foundations.
Partial scholarships may be available through the Ohio Valley Branch of the International Dyslexia Association; go to www.cincinnatidyslexia.org and click on Education for information.
3 hours of graduate credit is available through Mount St. Joseph University. This course fulfills the practicum requirement (RDG 591) for Mount St. Joseph University's Reading Science program.

Q: How can I calculate the derivative of the derivative using the tangent line? How can I calculate the derivative of the derivative of a function $ f(x) $ using the tangent line of a point from that function $ f(x) $ ?

A: If you ONLY know the line tangent to the graph of a function at some point you CANNOT determine the derivative of the derivative (that is, the second derivative). There are many functions that are tangent to a line at a given point which have different second derivatives. To see this draw a simple line, fix a point and draw many curves tangent to it, the derivative of the derivative is the rate at which the growth (or decrease) rate changes.
For example, the family of functions $x^2,x^4,x^6,...$ they all have the real line $y=0$ as tangent line at the point $x=0$, but their second derivatives are $2x, 4x^3, 6x^5...$ respectively.
However, if you knew the tangent line at EVERY point or at least around some point of interest $p$, then it'd be possible to calculate the second derivative. If $m(x)$ denotes the slope of the tangent line at a point $x$, then the second derivative at a point $p$ is simply (if it exists)
$$ \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{m(p+h)-m(p)}{h}$$
EDIT: a better example is given by a comment to this answer below.

Benet and Notre Dame shine, raise
funds for cancer charity at ESCC game
Redwings' cancer survivor Curtis planned event,
collected more than $4,000 for group that aided him
By Matt LeCren
LISLE – Connor Mote wanted to do something special for Bennett Curtis on Saturday.
The Benet midfielder accomplished that, scoring the spectacular game-winning goal against Notre Dame on a day when his friend, teammate and classmate exceeded his goals in a fundraising effort for the Shining Stars Foundation.
The host Redwings dominated from start to finish in a 3-0 East Suburban Catholic Conference victory, but the focus was on more than just soccer. Curtis, who overcame cancer as an eighth grader, organized an awareness day in support of the charity which sent him on a life-changing skiing trip to Colorado during his illness in early 2013.
"This game totally meant a lot more since it is Bennett Curtis' fundraiser," Mote said. "To have people come out was great, and we need to win our conference this year. So, yeah, this game was of high importance to us."
Mote, who like Curtis is a junior, gave the Redwings (8-3-1, 5-0) the lead by scoring his seventh goal of the season in the game's seventh minute. Jacob Graiber was dribbling far out on the right wing when he sent a long diagonal ball toward Mote in the Notre Dame box.
Mote chested the ball down to his feet and sent a 10-yard shot past Dons goalkeeper Conor O'Neill.
"That was like a once-in-a-lifetime goal, I think, for me," Mote said. "I probably won't be able to ever do that again."
Mote's finish was a fitting tribute to his inspirational teammate, who informed him last year about his successful battle with Hodgkin's lymphoma.
"Bennett is incredible," Mote said. "I love him. He's my best friend.
"He's a great leader who gets everyone going. If we're not ready to play, Bennett comes in and gets everybody pumped up.
"I don't think I'm going to be able to play with someone like him ever again."
Fortunately for the Redwings, they will have Mote and Curtis on the roster for another 1 ½ seasons.
With Mote, Graiber, Daniel Morefield and Jack Knapke dominating up-front and Curtis playing like a rock in between Richie Michalik and Ben Kelly on the back line, the Redwings won their fourth-straight game and extended their unbeaten streak to seven while remaining atop the ESCC standings.
"The defense has been solid," Benet coach Sean Wesley said. "I think we're super-competitive in the back at practice. We've found some new pieces.
"I think Ben Kelly is maybe the best right back I've seen this year, and Richie Michalik might be the best left back. With them and Bennett in the middle, we've got guys who can keep the ball.
"We have Harrison Burke, who was a starter last year. He's competing with guys like Charlie Kane and Joey Guay. We have a good group."
If there was one thing that might be a concern, it was the inability to increase the lead until late in the game.
Despite outshooting the Dons (3-7-0, 1-4-0) by a 27-4 margin, the Redwings weren't able to put the game out of reach until Morefield scored on a penalty kick in the 72nd minute.
Jason Rowaiye added another insurance goal in the 75th minute when he knocked in a
cross from Kelly.
Notre Dame's O'Neill had something to do with Benet's frustration, making nine saves to keep the visitors in the game.
"Every coach wants to score more goals but I think we did a much better job of keeping possession and really establishing ourselves in their half of the field," Wesley said.
"Even though it was tight at one point, it was still a good game for us where we were playing n their half and not giving up too much in the back.
"We were keeping it down there and that was bound to lead to good things, and it finally did."
Mote never doubted it would.
"We were all moving the ball well," Mote said. "We just needed to get more shots on target, but I thought we dominated the game so I knew we would get more."
Curtis, the Chicagoland Soccer Man of the Match, got more of a response than he anticipated when he first started organizing his charity event.
"I think it went very well," Curtis said. "Before we even came here today, we had already raised well over $1,000.
"When I first started off I thought it was going to be mostly awareness, but then people started donating. I'm overwhelmed by the generosity."
Players and coaches from Benet and Notre Dame wore T-shirts during pre-game warm-ups that read, 'Believe There is Hope," with the 'o' in replaced by a star to represent the Shining Stars.
"One of the reasons I love coaching at Benet is I think the kids see the big picture,"
Wesley said. "I think being able to relate to a teammate like Bennett Curtis that went through something like that and the profound impact it had on his life, I know the parents are always gung-ho about giving back.
"I think (it is wonderful) to be this successful and obviously playing against a great team with a great coach and great kids and great parents who also supported the cause.
"(Notre Dame coach) Mike (Smith) replied to my email in 10 seconds and was just happy to be a part of it. So when you can put two groups of kids like that together, I think it's special.
"And I think it only gets bigger from here. I think we're going to kind of adopt this as an annual thing."
Indeed, Curtis is far from done trying to help Shining Stars. He credited coverage of the fundraiser in Chicagoland Soccer as well as a word-of-mouth campaign by the Benet community with making his efforts easier.
"(By) just sending out emails to my friends and my parents sending out emails to their friends, it just kind of got around," Curtis said. "I didn't have to hand out fliers or anything because people passed it on.
"We were hoping to raise enough to sponsor a child at the next (Shining Stars) Winter Games, and I think we were able to do that."
While Curtis has spent a lot of time organizing the fundraiser, he hasn't shirked his responsibilities on the soccer field.
"When I step between the lines of the field, all that (other) stuff kind of leaves my head, and it's just about soccer," Curtis said. "You're out there to play soccer and each day, after surviving cancer, it's a blessing to be able to play."

Todd Bowles Stands Behind Flushing 13 Seconds In Final Fourth-Quarter Drive »
So About "Accountability"
Who really is accountable?
Recently, Bucs coach Todd Bowles had a speech about accountability that didn't exactly resonate with Joe and you could argue never resonated with the Bucs offense.
Think about it, since that accountability speech, the Bucs barely beat one of the worst teams in the NFL (Rams) and lost in overtime to another really bad team (Browns), scoring a grand total of 13 and 17 points, respectively.
If Bucs inept offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich was truly accountable, he'd clean out his desk when the team gets back to Tampa tonight.
Let's see how accountable folks are.
OK, Bowles had an accountability speech. Joe wants to know where is the accountability from the coaching staff?
* Who is going to stand in front of the team, raise his right hand and apologize for not going for the kill shot on fourth-and-2 in Cleveland territory late in the game? And instead punt, which set up the Browns for the game-tying score?
Accountability, please.
* Who is going to be accountable to the team losing one of its best players for who knows how long, Tristan Wirfs? By the gutless, play-it-safe decision not to go for the kill shot, the Bucs ended up playing in overtime where Wirfs was injured on a total freak play. Word is he does not have a broken leg, but who knows about his knee or ankle? Simply put, Wirfs (and the team) should not have been on the field. Who will apologize for the rotten coaching that led to this?
* Same with Pro Bowl safety Antoine Winfield getting hurt in overtime.
* Who is going to confess to not using two timeouts and keeping them in his (her?) back pocket in the final seconds as the Bucs frantically tried to get in field goal range to win the game?
* Who is going to fess up for not using a chip blocker or slide protection to help left tackle Donovan Smith against one of the best pass rushers in the game in overtime? By not helping Smith, Myles Garrett got a sack on Brady that killed a drive.
* Who is going to apologize for this three-and-out Bucs offense that despite being loaded with Pro Bowl and Hall of Fame talent, is one of the worst offense in the NFL. Even with extra time to prepare for games, even playing against sad sack franchises, this team struggles to reach 20 points worse than Joe trying to inhale bad beer at last call.
(Column intermission: The 2022 Bucs, with Tom Brady, Leonard Fournette, Julio Jones, Mike Evans and Chris Godwin average 18 points a game. The 1999 Bucs led by Trent Dilfer, Jackarse Green, Shedel Anthony and Hurt Emanuel averaged 17 points a game.)
* Who will man up and stand in front of the team and confess they are fully p!ssing away what is likely the final season of the greatest quarterback in NFL history, a guy who did so much for this franchise and got virtually every person in that locker room a ring and a fat paycheck?
Joe wants to see coaches stand in front of the team in the club's auditorium and confess these sins and be accountable for their decisions that have this team on the cusp of missing the playoffs and a losing record in a horrible division — with Tom Brady! Then go ahead and put that video up on Twitter.
You know, accountability, please.
If you are going to preach accountability, you better practice it. Right now, there is no accountability for the awful coaching that has gone on too long this season at One Buc Palace.
Cheap talk is over with, folks.
Before we won two in a row, Coach Bowles had a message for the team.

Goatfarmer Says:
Thank you Joes. Saved me from writing that.
Yucs2Bucsr Says:
Just listening to his responses make me nauseous!! He doesn't care
HC Grover Says:
Watching Clown Coach operate is like passing a Kidney Stone.
RuKa_44 Says:
The worst is still to come Joe: at the end of this disgraceful season, Todd B will continue to be the HC…. And if no one hired him (and probably no one will), Byron L will still be OC…. So, we are heading (again) towards our well known cycle of doom, where we find ourselves looking at draft prospects in October and wondering how so much talent can't take us to the playoffs…
Rod Munch Says:
The only way Bowles could be accountable would be to retire, but only after firing Leftwich. That would be, being accountable.
Of course nothing will happen, players will tune out the coaches, and the Bucs will end up like 7-10, maybe they make the playoffs, maybe they don't, but no one will are in any case.
Nailed it joe. 1000% correct. Dudes are out there putting their careers on the line and the coaches are blowing it. Game after game, after game…
BrianBucs Says:
If we're talking accountability then somebody ask Mike Evans why he kept giving up on his routes today, some with the ball already in the air?
Cchead Says:
Todd Balless and his idiot sidekick are clueless ass clowns. What do the Glazers ir Licht ha e to say about this sinking ship?
I totally agree with Joe as well as Brianbucs I love Evans but today he was a no show. Lack of effort and when he did make a catch with only one man to beat he ran out of bounds. I've said it for years he doesn't know what to do when he catches the ball in space. He's not a natural run after the catch WR. Anyone that argues that needs to watch some other teams number 1 WRS and see what they do with the ball in their hands.
HawaiianBuc Says:
#Bowlesout #Leftwichout
Christopher Schiefen Says:
I swear, the Glazers are just scared of the blowback if they fire these 2 guys now. It has nothing to do with skin color, & there's plenty of great black HC prospects coming up. These 2 just don't have it and the season is circling the drain.
Thadeus Says:
What another horrible coaching debacle. Something needs to change.
But there is a bright side. The GOAT will be playing for my Dolphins next season with Sean Payton as head coach !!!!
Excellent column. Accountability starts with leaders and the Bucs coaching staff isn't getting through to its players. Its a waste of good players not being put in the right position to win games.
JimmyfromNY Says:
I've never seen an athlete get more of the pass in a town than Evans. He's been horrendous. This year he quit in Carolina , doesn't fight for extra yards either go to out of bounds /down every play. Today he barely battled thru contact and gave up on the ball that should've been caught in overtime to get them in field-goal range. The guy cares about one thing I was even record
Davenport Says:
Before anyone starts hacking on Bowles … remember the last "Confidence" poll. Unless piles of Todd's friends loaded on, alot of guys were willing to forgive & forget.
And then the video… how many guys praised this monotone clown giving a speach that the players were tuning out? Go back and check that post. It was the Tods Bowles fan club.
He and his boy Byron gotta go now.
Bring back the lawn chairs Says:
I expect prudent clock management from my head coach in the nfl.
This stuff is very basic.
firethecannons Says:
yeah agree Joe!!!!!!!!
YOU WROTE THIS OR IRA DID: because Todd Bowles didn't take a timeout following a 1-yard flip to White, the play took 17 seconds off the clock instead of 5. So when Brady found Julio Jones for 26 yards across midfield, needing only a FG, Tampa Bay had only 8 seconds to work with instead of 20.
who is going to account for this?? TB12 could of brought to field goal range–I would bet that would of happened.
Mark2001 Says:
Maybe the Jets want him bsck…just like we want to pay backup Jameis 25 mil. A year. LOL.
DungyDance Says:
Excellent article. Wish it was under different circumstances, but this is one of the best posts I've ever seen here.
Crickett Baker Says:
Excellent aritcle Joe! Hit all the points. And to think–it was just one game you were writing about..
SlyPirate Says:
Bucs are still in the playoffs if it started today.
Tampabuscsbro Says:
Yeah the unfortunate part is nothing will change. Brady should have demanded a trade. And we are going to be bad for a few years.
At least we have that Super Bowl most teams can't say that when they get this outright awful.
Panhandle Buc Says:
I'm probably the biggest Mike Evans fan, but that deep shot he appeared to loaf and not even try. I don't know what's going on with him and Brady, but it's VERY concerning!! Add it to the list…
Ultra ClodHopper Says:
As for the video, that was the most boring thing I ever heard. Bowles has all the fire of a snowball.
What a pathetic coach we have, I mean he has to be the worst coach I have EVER seen in Tampa and we've had some bad ones…. To go from top 3 team in the league last year and #1 the year before, with basically the same squad, is down right pathetic! I could coach better than this mook! Idiot, egotistical, Moron who thinks his poop doesn't stick. He's like the right guys son who was gifted a Ferrari for his 18th bday, wrecks it in the first month, and doesn't care cause he didn't do anything to put that car into his life.. Bowles was gifted a Super Bowl team and he's just too bad to do anything with it.. please for the love of Raymond James, bring back Arians
D-Rok Says:
Accountability. Great article, Joe. The product on the field, from top to bottom, needs to be called out.
Being held "accountable" means a reckoning – an admission of guilt with a change of behavior.
Being accountable is akin to repentance, which means admitting wrong and changing behavior in the future.
None of this would matter on the Jags, or the Texans, or any team without any obvious talent or playoff aspirations. Yet, this team has all the talent in the world and should be much better than they are.
It all starts with leadership, and in any group throughout history, that's where accountability starts. As we used to say in the Army, it starts with the top leaders and it rolls downhill from there – in this case, starting from the owners, to the coaches, to the team leaders, to the team, to the waterboys.
Change must begin, and it must begin now. Does it mean changing people? Maybe. Maybe it just means stepping up and doing their jobs, from the top to the bottom.
The bottom line is, this team is massively underachieving. Everybody knows it, including this fan.
Redeemer Says:
D-Rok, you know I love you buddy, but you can't fix stupid. Bottom line, the coaches are a liability to the players. It's their job to put these guys in the best situation to win. Unless someone loses their job tomorrow, nothing will change. Nothing. This team should be 7-4 at worst. Sadly, all these dopes will be gainfully employed tomorrow. The signs of a hands off ownership, that's more worried about being PC than winning.
unbelievable Says:
Taking the words out of my mouth Joe, thank you.
Let's also add to that list Keith Armstrong (and by extension his boss mr. Bowles), telling Darden not to return the punt before our last possession, so as not to risk a turnover. Despite having at least 20 yards of empty turf in front of him.
Cuz god forbid we actually score more than 17 points in a game…
But sadly, we don't see any accountability. Because these coaches are so clueless, that they don't even know THEY are the problem.
It's on the Glazers at this point, and I'm not holding my breath there either.
Mackey Says:
Arians has a true passion for football and winning. Bowles does not. The players probably like Bowles, but do not respect him. Arian's influence on the offense was palpable that was laid bare when Leftwich had to go it alone with Bowles input. Todd Bowles is an excellent defensive co-ordinator, who will go down in history as one of the worst head coaches. He is no better than Lovie, Koetter or Schiano IMHO.
Redeemer,
Thanks bro. Much love back to you bro. "The greatest commandment is to love your neighbor." I'm not in the mood to discuss/debate PC at the moment cuz I'm pissed at this loss that shouldn't have been a loss.
OK, I will admit there MUST be a leadership change right now, in order to salvage THIS season. I would fire the OC first and bring in, let's say, Frank Reich, who is available. The DC is cool, Bowles, he be holding his own and actually doing a great job overall. Now the HC….it aint Todd.
The HC must be a passionate leader of men, and Todd isn't that, this year – forget his stint as Jets HC, although that has some merit right now.
Is there any HC worthy of leading this team, right now, who can step in and change this team? I mean, we seen many interim coaches through the years who have done just that.
What IF we had a coach on payroll right now who was a winner – a coach that that the players respected and listened to? Is there anyone?
Bruce Arians is the answer. I thought he was a good coach the last few years, winning a SB and all, but now, I'm convinced BA is what the Bucs need right now, today.
Totally convinced, and I don't say that without a lot of thought.
BA!!!!
Upon re-reading your comments, Redeemer, I sense you are calling out the owners to make changes NOW. I can agree with that.
Team Glazer, please make changes NOW. If it were this fans wish, I'd say place Bruce Arians as Head Coach tomorrow if he's healthy. I'd also suggest Frank Reich as OC, if he is available and willing.
Keep all coaches, don't fire anyone. Put Todd as DC and Byron as Semi-OC under Frank.
For those screaming for PC, my plan above makes everybody happy, including the players. Hopefully?
captivajim Says:
All spot on Joe …..maybe Glazers should hire Vilma ?/
BucU Says:
The 2022 Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be remembered as a laughingstock. Congrats Mr Accountability Todd Bowles. F this organization till they throw out the trash. I'll never watch another game until they fire the keystone cops coaching staff.
garro Says:
Hmm lets see if the Glazers man up and be the accountable ones!

NHLNews
Published on Sunday, February 4 2018
Breaking: NHL teams have been informed that top young centre is officially on the trade market
Major turn of events for the young star.
One of the most perpetually disappointing stories around the National Hockey League revolves around the lowly Arizona Coyotes. Year after year they fail to break the mediocrity barrier, and this year is no different.
They're on pace for one of the worst seasons in recent memory, despite finishing at the bottom of the standings every year and having high draft choices.
They recently traded a young talented forward in Anthony Duclair to the Chicago Blackhawks, and a new report from the New York Post indicates that the Coyotes have informed the 30 other teams in the league that another young forward is available.
And he will likely be in much higher demand.
A report from Larry Brooks of the New York Post says that "the Coyotes, we've learned, have made it known that Max Domi, with three goals this season and 12 in the two years following his 18-goal rookie season, is there for the taking."
Domi, drafted 12th overall in 2013, was one of the hottest prospects in his rookie year, scoring 18 goals and over 50 points (52) in his inaugural NHL campaign.
Despite only putting up 9 goals the following year, in the 59 games he played, he still managed 38 points, which put him the exactly same point pace as his rookie campaign (0.64 points per game).
His pace has slowed considerably this year, his 22 points in 52 games has him on a 0.42 points per game pace, pro rated to just over 34 points for the year.
Trading him on his first down year, at such a young age to boot, is not good managing, but general manager John Chayka has let it be known nonetheless that one of his star kids is on the market, for the right price. His value is at its lowest, and there will be several teams making a run for him.
The Montreal Canadiens, Toronto Maple Leafs, and Pittsburgh Penguins come to mind, but there will certainly be other teams competing for his services.
It will be interesting to see if this is a deadline or draft floor deal.
He can hustle, deke, skate, and shoot with the best of them.
TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS FORWARD HAS REQUESTED A TRADE
According to Sportsnet's Nick Kypreos, forward Josh Leivo has officially told Lou Lamoriello that he wants to be traded ahead of the February 26th. Of course, if Babcock were to decide that he deserves a regular spot in the lineup, he'd be happy to stay, but that's just not going to happen at this point.
The 24-year-old has only played in 12 games this season, collecting 3 points in the process. He's been a healthy scratch for the rest of it.
The right-handed shot plays on his off wing, and has the speed and skill to fit into a team's forward corps, but for inexplicable reasons, Babcock simply hasn't wanted to give him the opportunity.
When asked about the trade request, Babcock said he knew nothing about it.
"As far as Leivs goes, he hasn't got a lot of opportunity to play, but I'd talk to Lou if I was you about that. I know nothing," Babcock said, according to Sportsnet's Luke Fox.
But he went on to say that they like him, and that's why they re-signed him in November to a one-year extension. "He's a player that we like," Babcock said at the time of the contract signing. "So if you like a guy, why wouldn't you [re-sign him]?"
It seems confusing and slightly unfair to him to keep him in the dog house for this long. It may be hard for Lamoriello to even trade him given the fact that he has hardly played, and can't be showcased at all.
We have about 3 weeks to see if this trade request materializes into an actual deal.

Whistl has acquired Nottingham based Parcelhub and its sister company Mail Workshop in a move to accelerate its growth in the parcels and fulfilment market.
Parcelhub distributes more than six million parcels a year on behalf of hundreds of e-commerce, eBay and Amazon retailers.
The business, which employs 90 people, was founded by managing director Mark Rosenberg and Steve Riley.
"It is a business that shares the same values as Whistl – providing excellent customer services cost effectively and also identified a gap in the market providing solutions for clients that could not access the services and discounts available to large volume mailers," said Whistl chief executive Nick Wells.
Mail Workshop was launched in 2003 and provides e-commerce shipping and fulfilment, printed matter fulfilment, picking and packing. Parcelhub followed in 2010 and provides a multi-carrier shipping and e-commerce customer services for small to medium sized e-tailers who cannot access large scale discounts available to large volume mailers.
This is Whistl's second acquisition following a management buyout in 2015. It acquired Prism DM in July 2017.

Q: Kotlin - Parameter specified as non-null is null I was stuck with this for a day, but not found solution.
I am using custom Expandable listView AnimatedExpandableListView.AnimatedExpandableListAdapter to show Expandable type listView in my app. Data is set on Header section but when I clicked on Header to open sub-menu(child), it through error -

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Parameter specified as non-null is null: method kotlin.jvm.internal.Intrinsics.checkParameterIsNotNull, parameter convertView

at com.package.supports.AnimatedExpandableListView$AnimatedExpandableListAdapter.getChildView(AnimatedExpandableListView.kt)

I try lot of solution but not working anyone.
I did this so far,
 var navigation_menu: AnimatedExpandableListView ?= null
 navigation_menu = findViewById<View>(R.id.navigation_menu) as AnimatedExpandableListView

navigation_menu!!.setOnGroupClickListener { parent, v, groupPosition, id ->
        if (parent.isGroupExpanded(groupPosition)) {
            navigation_menu!!.collapseGroupWithAnimation(groupPosition)
        } else {
            if (groupPosition != previousGroup) {
                parent.collapseGroup(previousGroup)
            }
            previousGroup = groupPosition
            navigation_menu!!.expandGroupWithAnimation(groupPosition)
        }
        parent.smoothScrollToPositionFromTop(groupPosition, 0, 200)
        //parent.smoothScrollToPosition(groupPosition);
        true
    }

Set Adapter like

navigation_menu?.setAdapter(NavigationAdapter(context, gp_arr))

In side Adapter class getGroupView as below
override fun getGroupView(groupPosition: Int, isExpanded: Boolean, convertView: View?, parent: ViewGroup): View {

    var convertView = convertView

    val hdr = getGroup(groupPosition) as GP

    if (convertView == null) {
        convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_group_item_row, parent, false)
    }

    val txtV = convertView!!.findViewById<View>(R.id.group_name) as TextView
    val arrow = convertView.findViewById<View>(R.id.img_expand) as ImageView
    val viewLine = convertView.findViewById<View>(R.id.viewLine)

    if (isExpanded) {
        arrow.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_down_arrow)
        viewLine.visibility = View.INVISIBLE
        txtV.setTextColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.light_text_color))
    } else {

IEnova, Valero ink US$ 275 million deal to supply liquid fuels in central Mexico
Sempra Energy's Mexican subsidiary Infraestructura Energética Nova, S.A.B. de C.V. (IEnova) has signed long-term contracts with Valero Marketing and Supply de México SA de CV, a subsidiary of Valero Energy Corp., for the storage capacity of the liquid fuels marine terminal to be constructed in Veracruz and two inland storage facilities to be constructed in Puebla and Mexico City.
Such premises will allow Valero to supply gasoline, diesel and jet fuel to thousands of new customers in Mexico's central region. The three liquid fuels projects represent an estimated capital investment of US$ 275 million. These facilities are IEnova's first ventures in Mexico's emerging liquid market estimated in US$ 10 billion.
Under the deal, IEnova will invest US$ 155 million to build a marine terminal with 1.4 million barrels of storage capacity in the Port of Veracruz, and another $120 million to build a 500,000-barrel storage terminal near the Central Mexican city of Puebla and a storage terminal outside Mexico City with 800,000 barrels of capacity.
The marine terminal in Veracruz is expected to begin operations by the end of 2018, with the two inland terminals serving customers in early 2019. Valero will also have an option to acquire a 50% interest in each of the terminals.
IEnova won a July 12 bid with the Port Authority of Veracruz for a 20-year lease to build and operate a new marine terminal. The company just finalized the concession agreement for the terminal, allowing the supply deal with Valero to move forward.
Valero CEO Joe Gorder said in a statement that historic energy reforms made it possible for the San Antonio-based refining company to ship its products directly into Mexico for distribution and branded sales.
"As we continue to evaluate ways to further engage in Mexico, we look forward to discussing opportunities with Pemex that advance our respective strategic objectives, as well as discussing supply arrangements with independent retail operators," Gorder said in his statement, referring to Mexico's national oil company, Petroleos Mexicanos.
- KCS hits record revenues driven by Mexico's auto production, energy reform
- Tesoro Corp. signs deal to transport fuel via Pemex pipelines
- Monterra Energy plans to build fuel storage terminal in Puebla
- Valero Energy to compete against Pemex in fuel distribution market

Has a microwave exploded recently near you?
I can't actually remember. It was from a website somewhere. I'm a bad copyright infringer (for personal use only).
It's not really my thing, but I'd be willing to try it if I ever had a partner who was into it. And I have absolute no problems with other people practicing it, of course.
Well, it would have to be a raven and a sheep, as by far and away my two favourite animals.Fluffy, cute, majestic, intelligent, able to fly and stuff. Maybe just have a sheep with a raven's head and wings. And I,m lousy at thinking up names.
How did you develop a preference for sheep?
Well, rachel comes from an old hebrew word meaning ewe, I'm an aries, I have big woolly hair, I'm a natural born follower... it all sort of came from there.
Who's your favourite X-men character & why?
Probably Wolverine, for the inherent coolness factor, the depth of character, and that his actual mutant abilities (excluding the claws) are vaguely plausible. I defy anyone to come up with even a pseudo-science explanation of, say, Rogue (my second favourite (and Colosus third, fwiw)) that isn't just laughably absurd.
Happier than I've been in the entire rest of my adult (or teenage) life.
Pseudoscientific is easy. They're using their magical Scientology powers.
I should have known! The only obvious names for such an animal, however, are reep and shaven. Somehow I don't like either, how about you?

UFC 141 Results: Jimy Hettes Dominates Nam Phan En Route To Win By Unanimous Decision

Share All sharing options for: UFC 141 Results: Jimy Hettes Dominates Nam Phan En Route To Win By Unanimous Decision
The UFC 141 main card is underway live from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
In the opening bout of the PPV proper, California native Nam Phan took on Jimy Hettes in a featherweight matchup. The 145-pounders went right at it, with Hettes especially aggressive in the first round.
Hettes, who was an undefeated 9-0 coming into the fight, grabbed a guillotine less than two minutes into the opening round and got Phan to the ground. After releasing the guillotine, he rained down blows on Phan, who was rocked by at least one of the shots. Phan gave up his back and turtled, and was able to survive long enough to get back to his feet. Hettes took him down again with a throw, quickly establishing side control and trying for an arm bar throughout the final minute, all the while raining down blows to Phan that opened a cut over Phan's right eye. Phan was able to survive to the bell.
In the second round, Phan was quickly taken down again, but managed to get the upper hand for a short while, tossing in a few shots while trying to keep the fight upright. Hettes was back in control in short order, and dominated almost the entirety of an uneventful second round.
The third round opened with Hettes bulling Phan against the cage for the majority of the first two minutes before Phan found his feet and opened some distance. The two stood and traded a few shots, which is what Phan clearly wanted, landing a solid body shot. Hettes got wise and muscled Phan back to the cage before taking him down again. Hettes went for an arm triangle before deciding to just take his share of shots at Phan's unprotected face, including a huge flurry in the final 0:10.
The official result was a unanimous decision on scores of (30-25, 30-25, 30-26). Just a brutally one-sided fight as Hettes wins his second UFC fight to improve to an undefeated 10-0.

Daisy was a teenage doll: she and her clothes and other possessions were designed by Mary Quant. Daisy was launched in 1973 with the associated slogan "the best dressed doll in the world".
These Daisy paper dolls (made by the same manufacturer) and their clothes reflect not only the clothing and hair fashions of the day, but also the fashion model poses and the graphic style (in this instance shared with fashion journalism, dressmaking patterns etc) which tended to show girls as basically childlike, with large eyes, flat chests, large feet and disproportionately long legs. The bouffant hair is perhaps more a reflection of the vinyl Daisy doll.
Owned by the donor, Jane Wright (b.13/06/1963), as a child. Jane always loved dolls and, together with her friend Lynne, would make her own outfits and accessories, including chairs made from yoghurt pots. Her love of cut-out dolls started with the ones featured in the Bunty comic. She used the Daisy Dolls to re-enact her own Miss World competition, rating the different outfits.
It is certain that Joan Corlass did the illustrations (some of which are signed) for the stories; she probably also drew the dolls and their clothes.


Hey folks, I have been busy working on my homestead and only have internet when I come into town. So I haven't been participating too much on the forum. I have been reading threads some, but just don't have the time to spend like I used to. I am visiting family and so have been catching up on the internet a bit which some might have noticed spurred a rash of new posting from me and joining in thread conversation more. I found something I just had to share, and hope you all like it.
While watching a youtube video I saw an interesting video in the recommended section to the side. Clicked and was just amazed. Not even finished I opened the channel and saw the maker had a lot more videos similar.
BTW this is just the beginning of this build, in later videos he adds on more and more. Really making this a super deluxe shelter.
And he has some amazing shelter builds as well as some crazy food vids.
Now this stuff reminds me a bit of a channel we all are probably familiar with, Primitive Technology https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAL3JXZSzSm8AlZyD3nQdBA/videos and if not well worth checking out, but this new discovery is taking things a lot further. Taking luxury western living and using "primitive" shelter making skills to duplicate what might be seen in multimillion dollar homes.
But this was just the tip of the iceberg, there are more channels like this. I started to notice in the recommended section other similar videos but from other channels. At first I assumed it was the same guy with different channels, but when I started checking the videos out. I found they were completely different channels.
Here are just a few of the ones I found.
There are just too many amazing videos to pick others to post here, I would end up just filling this post with amazing videos. These channels listed vary a bit, some are more hunting and eating wild foods, others more shelter building, others more inventive primitive technology. They all have some awesome content, and are worth checking out to see how simple materials can achieve amazing things.
There are a bunch of similar channels that are just the hunting and eating of "exotic" foods. I am sure if you start down this rabbit hole of youtube channels you will discover a lot more, just as I did. I just wanted to cover the basics here and focus on the ones that had amazing crazy shelter building and primitive technologies.
Amazing thing too, a lot of these videos have 8 million + views already. The channels have millions of subscribers. So these channels are very popular.
As my brother pointed out, these folks have resources we don't in these rain forests. From abundant vines for lashing, to choices of wood for poles, and so much more. However I still think the skills, inventiveness, and ingenuity demonstrated in these videos can hopefully inspire us to up our game for building "primitive" shelters. After watching some of these videos I have a hard time calling them primitive, they are complex and sophisticated. What we are doing out in the woods with some of our best bushcraft shelters is primitive, but what these folks are doing is building modern shelters with "primitive" skills.
Not all of these shelters are built with practicality, durability, or safety in mind - most are done for entertainment purposes only, and the builders don't live in them or build their own houses this way.
The techniques/inspiration are good, though, and I love the Primitive Technology videos!
I agree , I've loved watching different "primitive tech" YouTube channels.
There was a cistern with a water filter with sand and charcoal , the concrete for the cistern was all made primitive method. I thought wow this would be great to water cattle.
I'll look for the video later. I think these videos are informative for homesteads and the permies people. You can take an idea an update it or use modern tools to make labor easier.
I also think they are good projects for kids to do on the homestead for fun. It's like extreme camping . Out in zone 4 or 5 or on the edge between them (as to not disturb zone five ) to go out and make a shelter over a few weeks or months. I've seen some amazing buildings and pools and kilns built , they would make the ultimate fort for a kid. If these videos and YouTube was around when I was a kid I know I would have tried to replicate some of the things I've seen.
My daughter loves these videos!
I hope to do simple lashed sapling structures with her this summer, inspired by the projects we have seen.
Mind you, I will use wire or jute, Im not willing to make my own lashing, yet.

I agree, they are not all practical. Some definitely temporary and built more as entertainment than functionality. However the skills involved even in the entertainment ones are worthy of admiration. Some of the stuff however is very possible to be lived in or lived in with slight adaptation. Remember that what we consider livable is not the world wide standard.
This guy, if he is not living in this place, has at least built a working functional home and farm. Including a water powered hammer, rice paddy, even iron works.
T Sousley wrote: I agree , I've loved watching different "primitive tech" YouTube channels.
While indeed some of the stuff is entertainment and less practical, there is a lot of very practical stuff in these channels as well. Even the shelters that are less than practical have a lot of skills and ideas in them that could be used to make more practical shelters.
I think it is awesome these folks are sharing these skills and knowledge, especially for people who have lost their traditional skills long ago and can only trace traditional skills back to after the iron age. There is a lot of lost knowledge to be picked back up. Even if it is only used making an amazing fort/play houses with the kids. These are important skills to keep alive and pass down to newer generations so they aren't lost.
I added another channel I had missed, Primitive Life.
It was too good of a channel to not have in the list above. He is working with a lot more permanence. Using stone work and primitive concrete.
I found this video last night and thought I would share it on this thread. It is a psych explanation why we like to watch the videos produced by Primitive Technology.
Of course the maker of this video assumes we are just the typical couch potato who doesn't get outside. So mileage might vary for those on this forum.
I know plenty of you roll your eyes at the impractical shelters in some of these videos. How some of these channels are just playing for entertainment of westerners who don't realize that these shelters are not going to hold up or last.
The biggest thing some of these less practical channels do for me, is show just what is really possible. While plenty of it is not so practical the skills and knowledge could be used to do more practical and still very impressive bush shelter stuff.
Too often I think people rely on the same handful of shelter ideas without thinking about what they might be able to do to make a better design. While some of this is due to these repetitive designs being tried and true structure designs. I also think it is difficult for people to break out of a rut and think creatively.
My point being that there is likely some amazing shelter designs we can be coming up with. While most will end up being one offs, and not useful for others except as inspiration, some might actually be useful designs that can really help folks who are into bushcraft and primitive skills. We can take some inspiration from these channels as well as from things we learned from the past shelters and even toss in some modern ideas with some pure creative ingenuity.
Which is why I titled the thread on other forums "We need to up our bush shelter game folks" since it is pretty obvious there is a lot of unused ideas on shelter building out there that could be utilized. Who knows one of us might end up inventing a shelter design that takes off and becomes the go to bush shelter for the future bushcrafters.


Per my digitize, tracks are the same as the CD release from the same date.
HdL and Epilog are visibly distinct on the vinyl, but are listed as a single track. I personally have no vested interest in having them together (as on the label) or separate (as on the CD).

There's a lot that goes into being a great bartender. Here are two essentials: First, a certain level of affability, a friendly demeanor that makes customers feel welcome. Second, technical skill. Sure, anybody can open up a cocktail guide book and learn to pour a martini. But who can pour a classic cocktail like that in both a timely and consistent manner? For both counts, we've found ourselves as repeat customers at W.C. Harlan, where proprietor Lane Harlan has brought a new level of thought and care to Baltimore's drinking scene. Simply put, she gets everything right time after time, including the inventive new ways she crafts the cocktail of the day.

CHA-CHING: Dave Chappelle Plans Return To TV
Six years after walking away from $50 million, Dave Chappelle is returning to the small screen.
"Dave Chappelle's going back to TV. It's not for a network. It's for Netflix or Crackle or some other subscription service," an insider tells The Daily.
Netflix, which paid $100 million for David Fincher's "House of Cards," and the other sub services are breaking into the content creation game as they continue their quest to disrupt the cable universe.
If Chappelle does indeed join one of the outlets, he'll join the growing movement away from cable. The comedian doesn't have the platform needed to go Glenn Beck and launch his own subscription network, but the move will give him full creative control of any program he creates.
Disclosure: Mathias Döpfner, CEO of Business Insider's parent company, Axel Springer, is a Netflix board member.

The Glass Menagerie, by Tennessee Williams. Directed by Julianne Boyd. Reviewed by J. Peter Bergman.
"Things of the mind and the spirit"
A memory play is something very precious, to be handled with extreme care, with attention paid to the details, to the finest aspects of the memory. It is something guarded with the body, the mind, the spirit, as author Tennessee Williams likes to remind us in his first great play, the 1944 hit, "The Glass Menagerie" now on stage at Barrington Stage in Pittsfield, MA in an extraordinarily fine production. Extraordinarily fine because the details are all there, exposed like nerves in a deep wound, affected by the air, the dust, the blood itself. Director Julianne Boyd's take on this play is one of exposure: every soul's open injuries are bared here, everyone's personal fears and qualms and hopes and dreams coalesce into a tapestry of distorted recollections. What emerges, ultimately, is the wonder of poetry and how it affects the lives of one man's family.
Tom Wingfield, the story's author, narrates the incidents that freed him from the daily grind of family responsibility, though it left him with emotional challenges hard to confront, and also puts him into the center of the action as the time past becomes the time present. From his perspective we enter into the struggle for personal space, for human need, for understanding, for truth brought to bear on an impossible situation. We learn of his sister, his mother, his friend used to betray his own loved ones, expose their weaknesses. Especially to expose his mother, Amanda, to the realities of her life as it was lived in the time he writes about.
Amanda is played in this production by Caitlin O'Connell. Amanda is a faded southern belle who has never put behind her the illusions of beauty, popularity, feminine persuasion. She has never acknowledged her failed marriage, her children's shortcomings, her lost possibilities. O'Connell gives Amanda everything but bitterness. Even when she upbraids her son, or her daughter, for their failures, there is a tone of encouragement in her voice. Her intoned accusation to Laura "Deception, deception, deception" ends with a change of perspective, almost unveiled pride in her daughter's lack of accomplishment which leads to a less accusative tone. The actress in the role may be the real Tom's mother, but she is also her own person and a shared personality at that. O'Connell shows us the generous side of Amanda, willing to sacrifice everything for her children who don't want anything from her. This Amanda, unlike others I've seen, will always hug her betrayers for she truly understands who they are underneath and she plays the internal forgiveness combined with guilt beautifully. For a change we don't hate Amanda for her intolerant, unforgiving ways; instead we tremble with her, cry with her, love with her. When her electricity fails rather than accuse Tom, she realizes his failure with him. Modest differences from the normal, but enormous differences in the way the play works.
The young man who enters the modest apartment that houses the Wingfields, their "Gentleman Caller," is played by Tyler Lansing Weaks, a newcomer to Barrington Stage Company. Handsome, charming, with a winning smile and a sincerity that astounds, he lends a real romantic nature to the play. He actually brings light into the darkness of all three Wingfield lives. His sweetness transforms O'Connell's Amanda and alters the natural gruffness of Tom's demeanor. But it is his effect on Laura, Tom's shy, reticent sister, that brings a sudden flair of wholesome life into the play. Weaks plays the man the way that Tom remembers him, as an almost too good to be true sort of fellow. Even so there is no artifice in his nature. His smile is just a smile. His kiss is just a kiss. It is a smile and a kiss that Tom dreams of, longs for, looks for, seeks but never finds for himself. In a memory he cannot possibly possess, for he is not in the room with them, has not witnessed, Tom's image of his friend and his sister is pure supposition and as played by Weaks and Angela Janas, it is a beautiful dream that shatters, as all dreams must when the dreamer awakens. Weaks is ideal in this role. He brings all human longing to bear and he plays it out with simplicity and honesty.
Similarly Angela Janas tweaks the usual reticence of Laura into a burgeoning enthusiasm that feels so very right. She plays the shyness of the girl perfectly, retreating physically from human interaction leaving only a shadow of her character in view. She protests innocence while harboring dreams of love and lust just out of view, exposed occasionally and then tucked away once more. Unlike other actresses who've played this role she never seems to come between Tom and their mother.
At the end of the first act, alone with Amanda, Laura makes a wish on the moon, but it is not her own wish, it is her mother's and it is Amanda who speaks it out loud. In Janas' body and face we can see her taking on the wish, rejecting it, holding onto it. This actress seems to never have a still moment when she on stage. Everything that happens is charged with her personal electricity. As Tom ends the play talking over time and distance to his sister we can watch her do what he hopes he is telling her to do even though the metaphoric finale of the play is as impossible as anything could be. Janas brings a chilling reality to their connection and its loss. She, without a word uttered, moves the audience to tears. She is an actress with that gentle ability and it is a joy to watch her work in this role.
Mark H. Dold delivers his finest performance in this role; Tom Wingfield as remembered by Tom (Tennessee) Wingfield (Williams) is a disaster of a young man, a person without a future, or a present and with no past worth reliving. Already exhibiting tendencies that will later dominate his life, Tom moves, dreamlike, back and forth in his story. He handles Williams' poetic narration with ease and with a sentimental joy. "He knew of my secret practice of retiring to a cabinet of the washroom to work on poems whenever business was slack in the warehouse. He called me Shakespeare. And while the other boys in the warehouse regarded me with suspicious hostility, Jim took a humorous attitude toward me. Gradually his attitude began to affect the other boys and their hostility wore off." These words by Tennesse Williams are nearly sung when spoken by Dold. His reading of them as the narrator reveals a love that is never visible, never overheard in the scenes that follow, but Dold makes them resonate with a difficult reality that lends true beauty to them.
There are many of these moments in this play. When Tom apologizes to his mother Dold says it with harshness and difficulty yet they come out sweet and sincere. When he chats amiably with Jim, the Gentleman Caller, there is an undertone of distancing, of moving to a safety zone. Dold delivers many of his lines with a bisected beauty, half involved and half uninvolved. I don't know how he does it, but I do know that the effect is startling and we learn more about Tom in a few words than I have ever known in the past: "For time is the longest distance between two places."
Boyd's production is simply beautiful. It is subtly and sensitively delivered. This is one of her finest directorial deliveries, a special delivery across a long distance. Her work is abetted by her designers' superb deliverables: a perfect set by Brian Prather; remarkable costumes by Elivia Bovenzi; extraordinary lighting by Matthew Richards; excellent sound by Joel Abbott; beautiful new music by Alexander Sovronsky played beautifully in the fire-escape heaven by violist Susan French.
Barrington Stage Company brings us a beautiful autumn gift, a first-class production of an American classic. It is not to be missed.
The Glass Menagerie plays at Barrington Stage Company's Boyd-Quinson Mainstage through October 21. For information and tickets go to barringtonstageco.org or call the box office at 413-236-8888.
