The past decade has brought significant changes to all markets serving the stone branch. From façades to flooring, from kitchen countertops to bathroom vanities, new materials have cropped up making life more difficult for quarries. We point toward engineered stone, quartz-composite materials, and over-sized ceramics.
In theory, these markets are much more customer-focused than they ever were: customers, who could choose among the material available in the past, now have the full gamut at their fingertips and can order custom-made material to suit their whim. The same is true for the price classes of natural stone where engineered stone and copies of the real McCoy circulate freely.
Thus far, the stone branch has reacted to marketing efforts by the competition only with a sense of unease.
But now it must face the threat head on and undertake marketing steps of its own.
The US-Natural Stone Institute acted in 2016 already with its campaign "Use Natural Stone".
But for the rest of the world outside the USA: what to do if funds are scarce?
Simple: develop ideas that fit the needs of small and medium enterprises (SME). Note that there is no stone "industry" as such in a position to launch a campaign.
This could be seen in France a decade ago. There are exceptions to the rule, of course, e.g.: Belgium or Switzerland, both of which have undertaken marketing campaigns. But they are, as mentioned, exceptions.
For the rest, product design could be a suitable marketing tool. Products for household use or furniture with stone elements.
With ideas like these, stone manufacturers can present their wares at architectural and design trade fairs and propagate the use of stone.
Objects of this type make stone acceptable as a household material and increase visibility – and once the potential customer notices stone in a positive surrounding, he has already bought it.
Some enterprises, e.g.: Lundhs of Norway, are leading with a positive example – these and many more ideas can be found in our section "Markets – Selling Stone".
Note: we are not propagating spectacular design objects as Italy's stone branch presents at fairs. These are suitable only for the "Made in Italy"-label. Other countries must develop their own profile.
Functionality must be the guiding principle.
Another aspect of marketing natural stone is to tie it in with emotions. Man-made material conveys no emotion. Stone and wood or clay are laden with emotion and heritage.
Representatives of the stone industry know this but used the fact too sparingly.
The same holds true for ecological strength of natural stone. Here, too, a glance at the competition is worthwhile.
In general it is safe to say that once again this year the global trend will be toward sustainability. This means that (in the western world), more and more people are willing to spend extra money on the green footprint and on keeping CO2 emissions low, e.g., by quarrying locally.
Measures taken by the US-President vs. imports from China. We had reported on the status already. It remains to be seen how and where Chinese importers will seek and find new markets.
Brexit, scheduled for March 29th, 2019, will rear its true face in the long term. If the value of the British Pound weakens still further, shipments of stone and machinery to the UK will become too expensive.

What a beautiful addition to any flower bed or garden walkway this sundial would be. The Turtle Pond Sundial is 11.5" round and the height w/ gnome is 4".
The sundial is the oldest known device for the measurement of time and was widely used throughout the world until the middle of the 1800's. There are two major parts to a sundial. First is the dial face which is divided in to hours and the gnome, or pointer which casts the constantly moving shadow on the sundial's face.

Beauty Tip: Oh the eyelash curler! Did you know that a little heat could make all the difference in getting Instagram worthy eyelashes? Forget just whipping out your handy curler and going right for the eyes. Start thinking about heat and watch the magic happen.
Think about it, no seriously (LOL). Doesn't a regular curling iron give your head of hair fabulous results? If you picked up your hair curler, didn't turn it on, but tried to curl your hair anyway; you probably wouldn't create one single curl. Why? Because your hair curler is not ON, and the lack of heat means lack of curl. So then, if you actuallydo power up your curler you can create beautiful ringlets thanks to the additional heat.
Take that same hair curler mentality and apply it to your handy eyelash curler. Yes, you will get some results from gently curling your lashes in the normal way, with your eyelash curler. However, why not pump up the results to the max if you can? Add even more dimension and curl to your lashes by utilizing heat.
Simply blast the eyelash curler with a dryer for about 15 to 20 seconds before giving your lashes the cure treatment. Voila you have a heated eyelash curler which will enhance the natural curl of your lashes.
Well, that is our Beauty Quickie tip of the day. What is your favorite trick to get voluminous lashes?

The band has never been bounded by frontiers but by expanding their horizon, the band gave its creative writing process a new blast.
And you can tell: new influences on "Raise Your Banner" (feat. Anders Fridén) are merged with the recognizable melodic synths that have marked the band for decades.
The first single, The Reckoning is already known.
WT has now released the second single, Raise Your Banner.
Like the first single, the team was made first a lyric video for the single, and then came the official video clip.
The band was filmed the short movie with the help of band members and fans.
The video is very futuristic, because is about a robotic war.
The song featuring by Anders Fridén from In Flames.


Spring is in the air and that means soon we'll be seeing butterflies dotting the outdoor landscape. My kids love looking for different varieties of butterflies in our neighborhood, so I knew they would love this Cupcake Wrapper Butterfly Craft. It is easy to make and personalize in lots of different ways.
Glue a pair of googly eyes to the top of a clothespin. I like using colorful googly eyes for this step, but use whatever you happen to have on hand. If your kids are feeling especially creative, they can paint the clothespins before they glue on the googly eyes.
Flatten two cupcake wrappers. These will form the wings of the butterfly so you want some wrappers that are vibrant and colorful.
Place the cupcake wrappers side by side, so they slightly overlap in the center.
Now comes the final step (I told you this craft was easy!) – clip the clothespin in the center of the cupcake wrappers and fluff each wrapper to create wings.
Try creating numerous cupcakes using different colored wrappers to add interest.
This craft is perfect for kids who love butterflies since they can do most of the steps themselves. No matter the weather, you can enjoy the beauty of butterflies!
We will make these this week! I have an Usborne Cupcake kit wih loads of cute wrappers, but I've started using the silicone ones for baking. I didn't know what to do with the paper ones, and my kids will love this cute solution. Thanks for a totally doable non-messy craft!
What a fun idea! As a kid I loved art projects and as an adult I still do. I am always looking for something creative to do with my toddler. I think this will be a great for the spring season.
Oh how cute! I have a preschool/kindergarten group that I run and this is PERFECT for us!

Q: difference between the following In order to prevent another command windows from showing, I have tried the following two methods
1)
StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;

2)
StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;

Is there any pros and cons of those usage?

A: There are many advantages of setting StartInfo.UseShellExecute to false.
One of which is if you can redirect standard input,standard output and standard error and read those streams. This is very useful when something goes wrong. By reading standard error stream you can determine whether any error had occured or not.
For more information on shellExecute follow this link
About StartInfo.WindowStyle property, if we keep it to false command prompt pops up when process starts. If your application has nice,rich UI and then suddenly one black window pops up, it will annoy users plus some users might try to close command prompt before process exits.. and there are many more reasons for keeping window hidden.

A: Yes,
There is a difference.
for example, if you set it to false enables you to redirect input, output, and error streams. or use another user to run the process.
Reading MSDN would provide you more details.

Victoria Premier refusing to exempt unvaccinated players for Australian Open
Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews has slammed the door on unvaccinated players looking to travel to Melbourne to compete at next year's Australian Open - despite Prime Minister Scott Morrison saying they would be able to enter the country.
The first tennis Grand Slam of 2022, scheduled to be held from January 17 to 30, has been thrown into turmoil after Andrews rejected Morrison's claims that players who have not been fully inoculated against COVID-19 would receive exemptions.
Morrison said unvaccinated players would be able to compete at the Australian Open providing they underwent a 14-day quarantine and Victoria applied for permits for them.
"They'll have to quarantine for two weeks, just in the same way a skilled worker who has come in to fix a boiler … or something like that, they can get exemptions to do that," said Morrison.
"We've been providing exemptions for workers to come in to do these types of things all the way through the pandemic."
However, just hours after Morrison's comments Andrews reaffirmed Victoria's strong vaccination stance.
"On behalf of every vaccinated Victorian who has done the right thing, my Government will not be applying for an exemption for any unvaccinated player," said Andrews.
"If we don't apply for an exemption, then no exemption will be granted and then the whole issue is basically resolved."

Morrison's statement also contradicted the view of Australian Immigration Minister Alex Hawke who last week said the COVID-19 vaccine mandate applied to all visitors to the nation, with no exception made for players looking to compete at Melbourne Park.
"Again, I was perfectly supportive of Minister Hawke's view, which I took to be the view of the Federal Government and it appears that is not the case," added Andrews.
"The Federal Government manages the border and to the extent that anything the Federal Government says on this is clear, because their position has gone 180 [degrees] from what the Immigration Minister said, which at the time, I agreed with.
"I am not intending to control the borders, we do not … We will host the event but we will not be applying for an exemption for unvaccinated players to come here. And that is the only fair thing to do. We have all achieved amazing things."
Andrews' position looks set to be a blow to Australian Open organisers after recent figures reportedly found that more than a third of players on the men's and women's tour are not double jabbed.
Nine-time Australian Open champion Novak Djokovic refuses to reveal his vaccination status ©Getty Images
The Association of Tennis Professionals told Australian newspaper The Age that just 35 per cent of players were fully vaccinated, while the Women's Tennis Association revealed the figure stood at 40 per cent as of the start of last week.
There are also doubts over whether world number one Novak Djokovic will be able to compete in Australia.
The 34-year-old Serbian, who is seeking a record 21st Grand Slam men's singles title and 10th Australian Open crown, is opposed to mandatory COVID-19 vaccines and refuses to reveal his inoculation status.
Earlier this week, a leaked email from the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) Player Council, claimed players who had not been fully vaccinated against coronavirus would be allowed to travel to Australia but would need to undergo two weeks of "hard quarantine".
It also revealed that players who had received two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine would not be required to isolate upon arrival and would have "complete freedom of movement" during their stay in Melbourne. Players were asked to "keep this information confidential until the Government makes an official announcement."
The WTA Player Council said it had been "communicating regularly" with Tennis Australia over conditions facing players but was told to "wait a few days before speaking about it as they were still working with the Government on the details".
"Because Victoria's vaccination rate will hit 80 per cent at the end of the week and 90 per cent next month, it has been confirmed that conditions for players at the Australian Open will improve significantly," the email reads.

I'm not ready for your goodbye.
And still going to be living.
You will still always be my best friend.
And you will be here till the end.
With all these things being nothing but another forgotten dream.
My selfishness wants you to always stay by my side.
Won't make your leaving any easier.
I have recently lost my stepdad to cancer, and I didn't get the chance to tell him goodbye because I was out of town for work and the night he passed away it was storming very badly and we had tornado warnings, so I couldn't go home to see him. The sad part was that he was in such bad shape from the toxins in his liver building up to where he couldn't move anything but his eyelids to "talk" to us all. So if I would have gone home, I couldn't have had a decent conversation with him. But we were very, very close to each other. And I can say that we had a great relationship and hardly ever fought about anything. He was there more in the 7 years I knew him than my own biological dad was in 21 years I've been alive. I was having a really bad day thinking of the decision I made to stay up here and it's really hard not to blame myself now that it has all gone through. I would like to hear other people's stories that are similar to mine to have the comfort of knowing there are other people like me.
My father passed away 2 months ago. I can't accept that he is really gone. Sometimes when I wake up in the morning I think maybe this was a long dream then I go looking for him throughout the house. I don't know if my father was in pain before he passed away. It hurts alot living without my father . He wanted to say something about me before he could stop speaking forever but never got to finish what he wanted to say. I miss him so much that it hurts. The only comfort I have is that I will see him in heaven when I die. Jesus promised that we will be together again. So I know I will get to see him again!
My father was murdered. Shot 11 times! He died on January 28th ,2013. It hurts to wake up everyday and not be able to call him. But I know that when it is my time to go I shall see his beautiful face again.
My dad died in a bad car accident when I was 6 months old so I didn't really know him but I love him and I truly miss him he's always in my heart.
I lost my dad to my own cousin and it's so hard. He passed on July 26 2009 I was 7 my sister was 9 I didn't really understand what happened but my uncle was trying to take him to the hospital. He was shot and a police pulled him over for going so fast he was trying to tell the police man his brother was dying but it was to late he passed and his brother was right there and had to be there when his brother passed.
My mum died when I was 18 months and never really knew her and I have 2 older brothers and I have never been really close to them and now my dad has emphysema which is a breathing difficulty. He has been told approximately another 10 years or less to live. I am 15 now and he has said to me that he won't stay around long not even for my sake. I am really close to my dad as there is no one else I can speak to, I am the only girl in the house and he's told me that he will try and stay around till I am 18 then go, but he also says that he doesn't want a funeral and now I am scared I won't be able to say goodbye or anything.
I cried as I read this. I could be saying the exact same words. My dad is dying from a disease called MND. I'm 14 and I'm not ready to say good bye to him. But I will have to in a year or two. My siblings are younger than me and they have the same issue. My sister is nearly 12 and my brother is only 8. I don't want them to have to say goodbye to their dad. I don't want to either.
I'm only 16 and my father passed away a month ago today so suddenly from a stroke, he quickly became unresponsive due to the bleeding in his brain and died within 12 hours! This poem genuinely brought tears to my eyes as it perfectly describes how I feel towards my own fathers passing. I will never forgot finding out the news and this has made me feel as though he'll always be by my side. Thank you.
The moment I started reading this poem, tears passed through my eyes remembering how my dad was my best friend but unfortunately he is no more but on the other hand it makes me feel like he is still around. I lost my dad on 25th July its been 3 years now but it seems like yesterday. Thanks it's a great poem.
It's crazy how your life can change in a blink of an eye. My daddy passed away in July. He was hit by a car. I'm 26 yrs. old and live with my mom, brother, and sister. We are all suffering so terribly without my dad. I just don't know what to do anymore. I feel like no one understands. This was so fast and so sudden. How could this really have been his destiny.
Tears filled my eyes, as I read your poem. I am 24 yrs old and my dad is my everything. I just lost my father from a massive heart attack June 15, 2013. It was totally unexpected matter of fact we were getting ready for his birthday party he would've been 60 yrs old June 19. It still hurts talking about him in past tense so bare with me. I am still not in total acceptance that he's not here with us. They say Time heals all wounds, I hope they are right. God Bless you all!
My dad just passed a week ago 04/14/2013, my dad and I were very close, I was at his house almost everyday, I just spent the weekend with him. And today is the week marker and I feel so blank. I feel so alone. I never understood this kind of pain before, but now I do and its killing me to know that my hero is gone.
Beautiful. I was 18 when my own father passed away from cancer some days I feel like a lost child I should be happy he's no longer in pain but I am not I just wanna kill my own pain and see his face once again.
This poem has touched me it made me cry while I was at work. I lost my dad in March of 2008. I was only 14 years old at the time and my father meant the world to me. I didn't get to spend as much time with him as I wanted to but he knew I loved him. I still haven't gotten over his death and I still cry myself to sleep almost every night. My boyfriend thinks I'm crazy for crying about it still but a fathers love is stronger than anything anyone could imagine.
I lost my mum in 2003 when I was only 22 years. Now I am 32 and father of 2 kids. My father died on 12th Sep 2012 by a sudden heart attack. At that time my wife was expecting and she was in hospital. My father came to see her. In the hospital I meet him. We take tea and he was in good mood. He left for home. After his leaving after 10 min I got a call that my father is on the road and in trouble. I ask them to take nearest hospital. I also reached there in hurry. When I reached hospital. My world, my roof, my life is vanished and now I am the loneliest person in my feeling. I cannot share my grief my sorrows. Now I read this and that's why I am sharing my wordings from my heart. Next day in grave yard I received a call that I also become a father of baby girl. Now I also become father of 2 and can't share with anyone my grief.
My dad passed on 15th day of January 2004 after I had a debate with him to accompany him to the hospital. When news of his death reached us I was and to date have never believed it. After reading the poems I feel I am part of the bigger family of many who have lost their fathers.
Will be having his memorial on the 28th December 2012. How I wish all I have read their poems could be with me. May his soul and the souls of all departed rest in perfect peace. Amen.
My father died October 29, 2011, the only day it snowed in New York last year. He was 92 years old but I still want him around. He had been on dialysis for a long time and had a bad heart. He is no longer suffering.
We have the unveiling September 30 and I am making a collage in memory of him to take to the unveiling. I also broke up with my boyfriend of five years so I have a double loss! I am more upset about my Dad. I am looking for other expressions to put on my collage. Thank you all for helping me grieve.
How do I say goodbye to my best friend? We leaned on each other when Mom died. Now what do I do? I can't fathom life without my dad. This poem made the tears flow. I hate cancer.
Thank You so much for writing this. This is as close as I have been able to find to describe the grief I have right now. I lost my Dad on March 12, 2012. He was diagnosed with a brain tumor 9 months ago. The prognosis was 18 months as it was inoperable. He fought and with chemo and radiation it was shrinking and dying and they would have been able to remove it and he would have had at least 10 more years. We had hope that he would have been able to live longer. His death was very unexpected and the grief is unbearable at times. I am 32 years old and will never get to have my father walk me down the aisle or meet any children I might have. This is my nightmare come true.
My father died 30 days ago..it's so hard for me to believe that he is not longer with us. I remember his pretty face and sweet smiling every day. Why god took him if he was a good man? Father, me and my mommy are missing you so much...it's hard to let you go and even more it hurts me to see mommy so sad and lonely ..we miss you eating together. You were the greatest gift dad thank you God..
My daddy just died last night. I am still not ready to say good bye Daddy. I don't want to let you go. I want you to be there to walk me down the aisle. But you won't be there. I'll have to walk alone. I have to let you go Daddy. But I can't, won't, and never will. I may have never met you Daddy. But you were and always will be My Daddy. No matter the reason I couldn't see you I will always love you and will always be proud of you Daddy. I miss you Daddy. I love you Daddy. I will never forget you Daddy. I will never let you go Daddy. And I will make you proud of me Daddy. I want you to have been proud of me Daddy. I will always be thinking of you when I have to make a decision. I will do the right thing from here on out just for you Daddy. I miss and love you Daddy. See you on the other side Daddy.
I've read all your stories and up until now I felt that no one else felt my pain. I am 25 and I lost my dad to lung & bone cancer on the 9th April 2010. He is the first thing I think of when I wake up and the last thing I think of at night. Everyday is a struggle to get on in life without the most important man in my life. My dad the smartest, kindest man who I miss every minute of everyday. I completely understand and sympathies with this poem. Sorry for your loss.
My father was diagnosed with cancer two months ago. After they opened him up for surgery yesterday, they found that he was too cancer ridden and there was nothing more to do. He is still in the hospital and we are hoping he comes home soon to spend his last days with his family. My father is turning 61 in three weeks and I'm only 30. This was very hard for me to take as I was in deep denial that he wasn't going to make it. I feel like I'm having a nightmare I can't awake from. Reading your poem has touched my heart.
I absolutely loved the poem. I couldn't stop crying as I read it. My father was diagnosed with lung cancer in April of 2002 and died in August 2002. So I went through the same thing. He was my everything. Even now it is still hard getting through some of the special occasions without him, certain birthdays and my wedding was the hardest by far. You just have to remember that our fathers would want us to be happy and that we will see them again someday.
Thank you for sharing this poem. My father was killed 15 years ago. I was 11.
It didn't hurt as much when it happened, as it does now, or as it did when I was teenager and all the days in between. Growing made it harder.
I hated him for leaving me, even though I knew it was not his fault. But I was selfish - I needed him, and I was angry at him.
I wish I could explain to him why I was angry, to let him know I love him. I know I can't, but I don't know how to stop imagining what I'd say, or how to stop imagining if somehow (impossibly somehow) he comes back.
And I'm still asking myself whether I'll ever be ready for a goodbye.
In the future you (Megan) might find yourself searching for him in other people. Don't. I can only say to you to stay close to your brother. He can give you a part of what your father could have given you.
The important think is to learn to be happy with what you have without being sad for what you don't have. I'm still trying to learn that.
I've read the poem and all your stories and for some reason I now feel that I'm not alone, cause at some point I felt I was, I'm a 21 year old female and just lost my mother 2 days ago, I don't really know what I'm feeling or will be feeling next year but thanks to you guys and this website I think ill be able to make it.
this poem has touched me. my dad passed away march 10th of 2009, of cancer. he had lung and bladder cancer. we all thought the chemo was working and then he got diagnosed with leukemia. the leukemia is what killed him. it is so hard. I think of him every moment, of everyday, but I'm getting through it and I love this poem.
This poem is exactly how I feel. I am 22, and my father was diagnosed with Lung Cancer in July, 2009. He passed away on Christmas Day, 2009. It's hard for us to understand why and the selfish part of me (as with us all) wants him to be here. It helps me to know that he is no longer suffering, he is now my ultimate guardian angel, and soon we will be reunited. Thank you for this poem.
Hey, that was one of the best poems I have ever read in my entire 16 years of living. This year, my dad was diagnosed with cancer and he was going to be cured. The chemo was almost over when he suffered from a heart attack and passed away. I am only 16 so we're around the same ages. But I was the one doing CPR on my dad because this happened in my house and my mom was in panic mode. It is soo hard and I have to be the one to be strong for my mom and my little brother. And by the way I am sorry of your loss.
I cried as I read your poem cause I just lost my father to cancer. It is so hard right now but I know in time it will get better cause God is with me, but the hard part right now is that he died in the morning before I got up out of bed and I found him in his room and he was living with me. I'm going to miss him so much and I would give anything for one more day with him.
I really felt this poem down to my soul, my father who was only 59 died of cancer and this is exactly what I felt like. no one can take the place of a girls father.
I cried and cried as I read your poem. It broke my heart b/c the words that you wrote were as if you had read my mind. I'm 23 years old and on October 26th, 2008 I lost my best friend, my father. He had a massive heart attack and stroke in one day. He had bleeding in the brain that left him unresponsive. He lived two and a half days before passing away. I just wanted to tell you that I'm so sorry for your loss!

Q: How to prepend string to a managed string in c++? on the last line of code i try to add 'a,' to my string which gives the Warning: Multicharacter character literal (potential portability problem) in "main.cpp", Line: 30, Col: 35
ManagedString accelerometerVectorsString = "";

vector<int> accelerometerVectors;

accelerometerVectors.push_back(uBit.accelerometer.getX());
accelerometerVectors.push_back(uBit.accelerometer.getY());
accelerometerVectors.push_back(uBit.accelerometer.getZ());
for (int i = 0; i < accelerometerVectors.size(); ++i)
{
    accelerometerVectorsString = accelerometerVectorsString + (ManagedString)accelerometerVectors[i] + ' ';
}
accelerometerVectorsString = 'a,' + accelerometerVectorsString;

A: 'a,' is not a character literal as the use of single quotes would indicate. It is a multi character literal, so you want double quotes; "a,".

After an honorable discharge from the USAF, Eason enrolled in the Radio Tv Broadcast Department at San Francisco State University from 1962 to 1964.

He has been married twice. He and his first wife Gay Sibley (1959-1963) have one son, Adam Lowe. Jim and his 2nd wife, Barbara (1964–present) have 2 children, their daughter Lauren and son James III.

Radio career
During his USAF assignment in Morocco, Eason broadcast a music call-in show over Armed Forces Radio in addition to his weather tower duties. (He left the USAF in 1963 from his last weather assignment in Merced.) 1964 was Eason's first Bay Area broadcast, when he guest hosted "Records at Random" on KSFO, opening his show with Ray Charles "What'd I Say". Between 1966 and 1967 Eason both created and hosted "Testing 1-2-3", a call-in game show on KCBS.  In 1969, he joined KGO as a weekend talk show host after KCBS went to an all-news format.  In 1970, Eason became a KGO week night talk show host. He moved to weekday afternoons in 1973, frequently interviewing visiting entertainers, authors, and public figures.

In 1983, Eason portrayed poet Omar Khayam in the Capuchino Community Theatre production of Kismet, which was directed by close friend Jack Brooks (1935–1984), director, actor, singer, arts critic, and host of a Saturday morning KGO program.

A longtime resident of the San Francisco area, Eason moved to Asheville, North Carolina, in 1993, where he broadcast his KGO talk show via high speed connection from his home studio.  He was one of the first to do this type of remote broadcast on a regular basis.  In 1996, Eason moved his talk show to KGO's more conservative sister station KSFO, while continuing to broadcast from his home studio in Asheville.

Throughout his long talk show career, Eason's show always ranked #1 for the afternoon time slot of 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., then 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.

Eason quit KSFO radio due to a "philosophical" conflict with management in 2000, which marked his official retirement from broadcasting. KSFO had been his first San Francisco Bay Area radio broadcast gig, when he hosted one of their "Records at Random" shows in 1963.

Jim returned to Northern California in 2003. He was inducted into the Bay Area Radio Hall of Fame in 2007.

TMX Explores Important Market Linkages with China
Senior TMX Group leaders meet with Chinese officials to advance efforts to establish global access hub to Chinese bond market
October 11, 2018 (TORONTO) – TMX Group senior executives were in China this week to meet with Chinese government officials and business leaders to further relationships in the region and TMX Group's client-focused global growth strategy.
During the visit, TMX Group signed a forward-looking Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Shanghai Clearing House (SHCH) which builds on almost two years of close collaboration between TMX Group and SHCH. TMX Group's relationship with SHCH supports foreign institutional investor access to Chinese markets, provides for the parties' mutual support towards obtaining regulatory and government approvals, and affirms TMX Group's and SHCH's desire to create an efficient linkage between North American and Chinese bond markets.
TMX Group has also entered into an MoU with China Central Depository & Clearing Corporation, Limited (CCDC) pursuant to which the two parties intend to initiate a feasibility study of mutual access models, work together to increase understanding of the respective businesses, and evaluate future trade opportunities.
"TMX is encouraged by the progress made so far with our dedicated partners in China, as we work to connect North American investors with the deep and liquid bond markets in China," said Lou Eccleston, CEO, TMX Group. "These relationships represent an important milestone in TMX's global expansion efforts, as we continue to seek out entry points into new markets and geographies and explore opportunities to deliver valuable solutions to our clients."
"We are honoured to be working with Shanghai Clearing House and China Central Depository & Clearing Corporation and look forward to exploring business opportunities together as we deepen our understanding of the Chinese market," said Glenn Goucher, Chief Clearing Officer & President, CDCC and CDS, TMX Group.

St. Johannis ist die evangelisch-lutherische Pfarrkirche der 1220 gegründeten Herforder Neustadt. Seit 1414 war sie zusätzlich Stiftskirche des ursprünglich in Enger ansässigen weltlichen Kollegiatstifts St. Johann und Dionys. Dieses bestand bis zur Säkularisation von 1802. Sie ist nicht zu verwechseln mit der benachbarten katholischen Kirche St. Johannes Baptist. Innerhalb des Kirchenkreises Herford gehört die Johanniskirche zusammen mit dem Herforder Münster und der Jakobikirche zur Kirchengemeinde Herford-Mitte.

Geschichte
Die Johanniskirche in der heutigen Form wurde in mehreren Bauabschnitten als Westfälisches Quadrat im Stil der Gotik erbaut. Vermutlich an der Stelle eines älteren Friedhofs und einer Kapelle wurde bald nach 1220 durch das Stift Herford eine neue Kirche erbaut, die kurze Zeit später als Pfarrkirche für die Neustadt bezeichnet wurde. Der Bau erfolgte in zwei Etappen, die insbesondere an der abweichenden Form der westlichen Gewölbe und den Kapitellen der westlichen Säulen leicht ablesbar sind: Die westlichen Joche und die beiden Turmnebenräume stammen noch vom Ursprungsbau aus der Zeit um 1250. Ab etwa 1320 wurde die Kirche um ein Joch nach Osten erweitert und ein neuer Chor errichtet. Diese Raumteile zeigen bereits erheblich spätere Formen. Auch der ursprüngliche Turm wurde wohl erst in diesem Zeitraum errichtet.

Wegen der unsicheren Lage wurde im Jahre 1414 das Stift St. Dionys von Enger in das befestigte Herford verlegt; Stiftskirche wurde die Johanniskirche. Die Stiftsherren brachten damals nicht nur den berühmten Dionysius-Schatz mit Taufgaben Karls des Großen an Widukind nach Herford, sondern auch die Gebeine des Sachsenherzogs Widukind, die bis 1810 in der Johanniskirche ruhten. Heute befinden sich die Taufgaben im Kunstgewerbemuseum Berlin. Widukinds (vermeintliche) Gebeine wurden wieder in die Engeraner Stiftskirche gebracht.

Auf Grund der neuen Funktion als Stiftskirche wurde in der Kirche eine Chorschranke (Lettner) zwischen dem Bereich der Kanoniker und der Laien errichtet. Außerdem wurden Seitenaltäre errichtet, um den zahlreichen Priestern stille Messen und Gebete zu ermöglichen. Auch der Turm wurde um ein Geschoss erhöht, so dass er mit knapp 90 m der höchste Herfords wurde.

In der Zeit der Reformation wurden zahlreiche Gegenstände in Stift und Kirche im Zuge des "Herforder Bildersturms" von 1532 zerstört.

Das Stift selbst bestand als protestantische Einrichtung weiter. Im 18. Jahrhundert hatten der König von Preußen, der Kurfürst von der Pfalz und das Kapitel selbst abwechselnd das Recht bei Vakanz neue Kanoniker zu bestimmen.

Der Turm wurde beim großen Stadtbrand von 1638 durch Funkenflug in Brand gesetzt und zerstört. Der daraufhin errichtete 85 m hohe Turm neigte sich im Laufe der folgenden Jahrhunderte und erlangte als "schiefer Turm von Herford" Bekanntheit. Wegen Einsturzgefahr musste der Turmhelm 1885 abgetragen werden und wurde durch einen neuen ersetzt, mit dem die Gesamthöhe nur noch 80 m betrug. Das Bauwerk verfiel jedoch weiterhin. Zusätzlich führte der Bau der städtischen Kanalisation zu einem gravierenden Absinken des Grundwasserspiegels, wodurch die Eichenpfähle der Fundamentierung verrotteten. Daraufhin musste der Turm zwischen 1906 und 1910 vollständig abgetragen, neu fundamentiert und neu errichtet werden. Der Turmneubau wurde zwar mit altem Material und in alter Form errichtet, erhielt jedoch ein Geschoss weniger (7 m) als sein Vorgänger. Er hat jetzt nur noch eine Höhe von 71 m, ist damit jedoch nach wie vor der höchste Kirchturm Herfords. Der Kirchenraum selbst konnte durch Unterfangen mit Beton gerettet werden.

Seit 1981 steht die Kirche unter Denkmalschutz. Seit 2008 wird sie aus Kostengründen nicht mehr beheizt.

Architektur und Ausstattung

Fenster

Die Glasfenster, die zu den ältesten in Westfalen gehören, stammen zum Teil noch aus dem 14. und 15. Jahrhundert und wurden durch den couragierten Einsatz des damaligen Pfarrers Helmut Gaffron im Mai 1940 vor der Zerstörung gerettet. Die jüngeren, nicht gesicherten Fenster wurden bei Erschütterungen durch Bombeneinschläge in der Nähe der Kirche (Hämelinger Str.) zerstört.

Innenraum

Die künstlerisch wertvolle Inneneinrichtung stammt aus dem 16. und 17. Jahrhundert. Charakteristisch sind die aus Holz geschnitzten Amtsstühle der Handwerkerzünfte der Neustadt. Die Barockkanzel wurde vom Bürgermeister Daniel Pöppelmann gestiftet, einem direkten Vorfahren des 1662 in Herford geborenen Matthäus Daniel Pöppelmann.

Orgel

Die Orgel wurde 1955 durch die Firma Gustav Steinmann Orgelbau erbaut. Das Schleifladen-Instrument verfügt über 26 Register, die auf zwei Manuale und Pedal verteilt sind. Die Trakturen sind mechanisch.

 Koppeln: II/I, I/P, II/P

Glocken

Fünf Glocken hängen im Turm: Die Glocken I, II und III wurden zwischen 1639 und 1646 von der Glockengießerfamilie Hemony angefertigt, die Glocke IV (ehemals Viertelschlagglocke) bereits 1496 und stammt aus dem Umkreis des Gerhard van Wou. Die fünfte und kleinste dient dem Viertelstundenschlag (für den Stundenschlag die Glocke II im Turm) und hängt in einer kleinen Öffnung am östlichen Zifferblatt. Sie wurde erst in den 1990er Jahren gegossen. Die übrigen vier Glocken werden schwingend geläutet und sind auf zwei Glockenstuben verteilt; in der oberen hängt die kleinere Glocke (ursprünglich als Viertelschlagglocke gegossen), in der unteren die drei großen Glocken. Alle vier Glocken zusammen erklingen nur zu besonderen Anlässen. Am Heiligabend und am Pfingstsonntag um 12 Uhr mittags erklingen die Glocken der Stadt Herford für 20 Minuten.

Die Glocken I, II und III standen unter Reichsdenkmalschutz und mussten daher nicht während des Zweiten Weltkriegs im Rahmen der Metallspende des deutschen Volkes abgeliefert werden. Die Glocke IV hingegen wurde zwar requiriert, jedoch nicht – wie viele andere Glocken – im Turm zerschlagen, sondern am Stück abtransportiert. Durch glückliche Zufälle überstand sie den Krieg auf dem Hamburger Glockenfriedhof und konnte nach 1945 wieder zurückgeführt werden.

Get set ready for the possible final rally if any for the year. Call it a Dead Cat bounce or a Relief rally post US elections or a Santa rally (possible early vacations for fund houses) ending the year – whatever! The point is S&P 500 can possibly jump around 5% from this point on wards before a big heavy crash courtesy Fiscal Cliff and Greece woes!
The chart below is of S&P 500 on 4-hourly basis. The chart is self explanatory.
1370 is a 50% Fibonacci retracement of the move from June, 2012 low to September, 2012 high. Also, its a 100% Fibonacci expansion of ABC move. 1370 being a very important level to go long for next 2 weeks. Initially it might find some resistance around 1410 levels. But once it breaks it, 1440-50 is on the cards.

As of Tuesday, January 18th, Quebecers will need to show their proof of vaccination to buy hard liquor or any product at the SAQ or cannabis from the SQDC.
Christian Dubé, Quebec's Health Minister, made the announcement in a late morning press conference joined by vaccine program director Daniel Paré and associate deputy health minister Lucie Opatrny. He added that the same rules will apply to some "non-essential" businesses in the future, without being specific on the scope or the timeframe.
Currently, people who have received two vaccine shots and proof through an app or on a printout can enter places like bars and restaurant dining areas (when they are open), but Dubé says that the vaccine passport will soon require three doses to work. He said that the government would give people enough time to get their third shot before implementing the change.
Following the announcement, Quebec Liberal Party Leader Dominique Anglade criticized the Legault Government's handling of the Omicron variant stage of the pandemic. While her party says it would also cut off the unvaccinated's access to the SAQ and SQDC, Aglande tweeted (in French) "It feels like we are on a boat without a rudder and without a compass. I call upon François Legault to regain control of the management of the pandemic."

The Illusionist, published in 1995, is a novel by Irish author Jennifer Johnston, and considered one of her best works. It gained positive reviews in The Irish Times, Times Literary Supplement and the New Statesman.

Premise
The story consists of two interlinked narratives. In the first, set in Dublin, 58-year-old Stella Glover meets with her daughter Robin after the funeral of her estranged husband Martyn, and seeks reconciliation with her. The other narrative consists of flashbacks to her past life in London; her first meeting with Martyn who describes himself as an 'illusionist', their marriage, the birth of Robin, and Stella's growing frustration with Martyn about whom she knows nothing. He refuses to tell her anything about his family, his past or the nature of his career, he provides her with every luxury but insists she gives him privacy.  Eventually Martyn's behaviour becomes increasingly difficult and Stella is forced to leave him and her daughter behind and return to her parents in Dublin. But to Robin, Martyn continues to be the perfect father and she cannot forgive Stella for leaving him...

I could barely make out what she was saying. "You're party has already been seated," the hostess pointing toward the general vicinity of a table occupied by my patiently waiting friends. No, it wasn't yet time for me to get fitted for hearing aids. I had just walked into a Chinese restaurant.
Anyone who's ever stepped foot inside a busy Asian dinning establishment knows that fireworks, shuttle launches and rock concerts have nothing on the auditory levels of a Chinese restaurant. Dishes clang, children whirl about, food sizzles and conversations occur at such a high decibel level that it's possible to scream and not be heard. If a tree fell in a Chinese restaurant, would anybody hear it? No. No they wouldn't. But that's not always a bad thing. Sometimes dinner in a thundering environment is in order. As was the case with my recent visit to Yangtze Dinning Lounge.
As enticing plates of Fried Lobster and Steamed Pickerel whizzed by our table, we settled into the tried and true: Straw Mushroom Egg Soup, Springs Rolls, Kulu Chicken, Thai Basil Beef and Kung Po Shrimp. At Yangtze's, even the basics are fantastically prepared. It may not be the ultimate location for intimate conversation, but Yangtze's is a great place to eat. For all it's loudeness, it's the perfect establishment to bring your kids. They can hoot, holler and run around and no one will even notice. Heck, you can hoot, holler and run around and no one will even notice. Welcome to Yangtze's!


LG was part of the great MWC 2009 show today, announcing three new products: the first wireless modem that supports LTE technoloy, the first transparent keypad handset, GD900 and a touchscreen 3G watch phone, GD910. The beautiful device below is the transparent LG GD900, a handset that will surely appeal to ladies.
LG GD900 glitters like crystal and it's a sliding handset that reveals a splendid transparent keypad that glows when open. The phone will reach global markets in the second half of the year, packing the most advanced technologies and the S-Class 3D interface.
Back to LG's launches, the first LTE wireless modem shown today is a step towards a 4G chip that will be embedded in future LG smartphones. With the aid of two antennas, LTE-based devices can reach download speeds of up to 100 Mbps and upload speeds of up to 50 Mbps.


What age group is most affected by gambling addiction?
Studies conducted in North America, Australia, New Zealand and Europe have found that adolescents and young adults (those under 30 years old*) are most affected by gambling problems. In particular, one American study** has reported that 3.1% of 18-29 year olds, 1.5% of 30-39 year olds, 2.4% of 40-49 year olds and 2.8 % of 50-64 year olds gamble excessively. For adults aged 65 years or more, the percentage is significantly less (0.3%).
For Switzerland, a study*** about the prevalence of probable excessive gambling shows that 43% of people experiencing this difficulty were less than 29 years old. Furthermore, the researchers found that those who started gambling before the age of 21 years were significantly more likely to develop gambling problems.

Q: localStorage sign up users how to redirect without losing data I have a problem with a sign up form. Every time a user creates an account I use localStorage to save the form values. But if after the submit button the user redirects to another page it saves only the last user data who signed up. If after sign up I dont redirect the user to another page I can have more than one users. What can I do to save more users (using localStorage)
the code is:
 var passwords=[];
  var people= [];
function submitSignUp(){
     var usr = signupform.elements["username"].value;
     var pass = signupform.elements["password"].value;
     people.push(usr);
     passwords.push(pass);
     localStorage.setItem( 'peoplenames', JSON.stringify(people));
     localStorage.setItem('urpasswords',JSON.stringify(passwords));
     window.location.href="accountCreated.html";
}

also I use a input type button and not submit because I have the same problem with the submit input. What can I do? Thanks.

A: Demo
So here is the jsfiddle that should work for you.
some key things are the following.
if(localStorage.getItem('users') != null){
    users = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('users'));
}

this code checks if the users string has been set for the current page. If users has not been set on local storage is skips this step entirely.
as for processing information from page to page, you will need to do 1 of 3 things.

*

*Send all your calls via ajax. JQuery Get would allow you to stay on the current page while loading content from other pages. You would use the get or post like an IFrame

*Navigate through your site using only get methods. Javascript wasn't meant for this, and this doesn't give you much control over the initial state of a webpage.

*If you don't want to use Javascript for the rest of your life, or have personal information that shouldn't be held on a local machine. IE: passwords. Use a Server Scripting Language.

In the end it is up to you to decide what to do, but my recommendation would be to use Server Scripting Language and some sort of Database. These are web standards and are marketable skills.

NIH Reauthorization
On January 15, 2007 President Bush signed H.R. 6164 as P.L. 109-482, the National Institutes of Health Reform Act of 2006, affirming the importance of NIH and its vital role in advancing biomedical research to improve the health of the Nation.
Provisions revised Title IV of the PHS Act and created the Division of Program Coordination, Planning, and Strategic Initiatives, to recommend cross-cutting projects for support by the Common Fund.
The bill authorizes, but does not appropriate, for NIH $30,331,309,000 for FY 2007, $32,831,309,000 for FY 2008 and such sums as necessary for FY 2009.
The bill deletes most reports pertaining to NIH in current law and replaces them with one biennial report to Congress.
The bill calls for the establishment of a Scientific Management Review Board to review the organization of NIH at least every seven years.
The bill also authorizes the NIH Director to award grants for demonstration projects for research bridging the biological sciences with the physical, chemical, mathematical, and computational sciences; and authorizes the establishment of demonstration programs that award grants, contracts, or engage in other transactions, for high-impact, cutting-edge research demonstration programs.
(Note: The House passed the measure by a vote of 414 - 2 on September 26, 2006, the Senate passed an amended version by unanimous consent on December 8, 2006, and the House approved the Senate version by voice vote on December 9.)
The NIH Director established an Ad Hoc Working Group of the NIH Steering Committee to be chaired by the NIH Deputy Director and comprised of IC Directors and leadership in legislation, policy, management, communications, extramural and intramural activities, budget, and the Office of General Counsel to make recommendations on the implementation of the legislation.
The Ad Hoc Working Group completed a careful, detailed analysis of the legislation and carefully planned the implementation of this significant legislation.
The agency has successfully implemented the legislation. For example:
NIH is using these new authorities to enable and expedite trans-NIH research, funded through the new Common Fund.
The first Biennial Report was delivered to Congress in June of 2008, which explains NIH programs to Congress in one consolidated and transparent publication.
The agency has moved ahead on an open and electronic disease funding report, by creating the Research, Condition, and Disease Categorization (RCDC) system, launched in February of 2009. RCDC utilizes a computer-based tool that applies a uniform process of accounting for NIH funding for diseases and conditions. The process produces a fully transparent list of grants underlying and supporting the dollar amounts for each reporting area.
The Scientific Management Review Board will have its first meeting at the end of April 2009. The SMRB will serve as an important source of advice to NIH on organizational issues, helping to ensure that NIH's structure is optimal for supporting the advancement of science.
NIH is in the process of drafting a report to Congress evaluating demonstration projects authorized by the Act.

"What on Earth? Inside the Crop Circle Mystery " Suzanne Taylor takes us inside of a Crop Circle!
Suzanne Taylor, Author and Producer of Crop Circle Documentary "What on Earth? Inside the Crop Circle Mystery"
"Suzanne Taylor, Producer/Director of What On Earth? Inside the Crop Circle Mystery (http://CropCircleMovie.com), has been involved with films since she graduated Phi Beta Kappaand summa cum laude from NYU. Having been an actress (http://imdb.com/name/nm0853220), she crossed over to the other side of the camera as the Executive Producer of the 2002 feature documentary, CROP CIRCLES: Quest for Truth. The new film, which was well-reviewed in The New York Times, won the Award for Best Feature Documentary at the UFO Congress Film Festival, where the first film got the Audience Award. "What On Earth?" (the movie) also received the award for Excellence in Paranormal Filmmaking from the Paranormal Symposium and Film Festival, and it just had its TV premiere on CPT12, a Colorado PBS station. Suzanne is a crop circle authority on the Ancient Aliens television series on the History Channel. Recently she got a license to produce a TEDx West Hollywood event, and Doorways to Another Reality is in the planning stages. "
We interviewed Suzanne for a full hour, and here are some of the points we discussed:
What is a Crop Circle?
What does it FEEL like to enter a Crop Circle?
How long have you been studying & researching crop circle?
Where do crop circles come from?
How long does it take to make/create a crop circle?
Are crop circles from outer space?
What about those crop circle hoaxers? Where are they today?
"Scientific evidence suggests that many of the enormous patterns we call crop circles that appear each summer in farmers' fields, are the products of an unknown intelligence with the capacity to think, decide, design, and precisely place these elegant glyphs in the landscape. And, in another realm where current contact with extraterrestrials is in question, Apollo 14 astronaut and psychic researcher Edgar Mitchell states, "We have been visited on this planet and the UFO phenomenon is real." The revelation of other intelligences interacting with us portends a paradigm shift of massive proportions."

"As the founder of Mighty Companions, a non-profit dedicated to consciousness expansion, her Los Angeles home is a gathering place for forward-thinking activists. A fine arts post-impressionist painter, Suzanne had a one woman show. She is an accomplished chef, and author of The Anybody Can Make It, Everybody Will Love It Cookbook. She writes a blog, Making Sense of These Times (http://TheConversation.org),where posts about progressive ideas include considerations of how consciousness might evolve and how instrumental the crop circle phenomenon could be in that regard."

When that gentleman called, he seemed slightly nervous and excited. Even though he was off the topic of crop circles, I felt he had called the right place. He mentioned formic acid and bee venom as two agents to thwart Morgellon's. I did listen to the entire show, as always. Possibly this could be looked into quickly? And please get Mr. Stein back on as soon as you can. Thank you
FYI, we have had Howard Stein back on the show twice since your request, hope you had a chance to hear it!
Frank -"ralphproject"
While working in Seoul Korea with Dr Carl Baugh, Gleen Rose, TX and Jay Goldner, Vienna (prob Jay is in top 5 of Crop Circles area) with "Klaus Dona Unsolvd Mysterys European Scienctific Exhibitions" Jay had 100's of pictures of crop circles. I was ask to try and name one which was recent shot in England. 5 mos cameras were set up in a hot location in farm land. The crop circle I was checking over took 1.5 seconds to form..Jat said that is twice the time most are fromed–he had the whole thing on video, 5 cameras set up to catch it being formed. Video showed a mist, sparky stuff then a flash–crop circle was there. BIG–I named that one Dolphins, it was published later in a book. This was in 2007, Jay ask us what we thought they were, just curious. I said "information, I WOULD CALL THEM "EMAILS TO SPACE"–

Welcome to my little corner of the world wide web.
Journalism/Communication
Bāŋlā (Bengali)
Hindī
A small group is tackling big problems
December 3, 2021 December 8, 2021 ~ debduttapaul
A month after Cyclone Amphan had wreaked havoc through southern Bengal, I got a call from a professor in Kolkata. Barely an hour's drive from the city, the area of Piyali in the South 24 Parganas got devastated by the cyclone — even a month later, many did not have a roof on their heads. He told me about the situation of Ganga and Jamuna Tarafdar, twin sisters with kids of their own, whose hut was blown away in the cyclone. With the lockdown lifting slowly, we planned a visit a couple of weeks later.
I wrote about the key takeaways in a journalistic piece. A group of people in Piyali had collectivised. With the help of non-profits based in the city, they started gathering funds, buying people ration, building back their homes, and organising medical camps. The people who formed the backbone of support to the affected families were themselves financially hit due to losing their daily jobs in Kolkata. They channelised their organisational efforts and successfully listed their newly-formed organisation as an NGO, the 'Prantik Sundarban Welfare Association' (PSWA), on the 30th July, 2020.
Around 4,000 families in villages surrounding Piyali, in the Canning-1 Block under the Jibantala Police Station, Baruipur Block under the Baruipur Police Station, and Champahati Gram Panchayat area had been affected by the lack of opportunities in the labour market post lockdown. The NGO provided ration support to these families throughout 2020. As the COVID situation improved, they provided clothes to people who needed them and new clothes to marginalised kids during the Durga Puja. They started running a community sewing room, focussing on training women to sew masks, sanitary pads, bags, and other clothing materials.
The situation was starting to get back to normal by the end of 2020. The inhabitants of Piyali were finally travelling to the city in the restarted trains. With a good fraction of families getting back their daily wage work in the city, at least partially, the burden on the organisation to provide many with ration was starting to lift. The NGO distributed winter clothes and blankets to marginalised people.
Then, the second wave struck.
On the back of a fiery election campaign in the state, West Bengal was reeling, its healthcare system breaking down. I got desperate calls from Subodh, one of the three directors of the NGO. They needed ambulances, oxygen cylinders, PPE kits. Moreover, they needed to spread awareness for people to wear masks properly and maintain physical distance. It was challenging to convince the inhabitants not to risk their lives while trying to cling to their livelihoods. It took a while for people to realise the ferocity of the wave, busting the myth that the pandemic was for "city people" and "we have better immunity". At the back of Piyali's inhabitants' minds, the fear of dying of starvation was looming large. Many inhabitants were hiding the disease and pretending nothing had happened. The organisation was coming to know of cases at the last stages of life. The nearest hospital provided none to little support. There was no oxygen, there was no infrastructure to tackle the pandemic, and doctors were advising patients to be straightaway taken to Kolkata instead.
Now, a new organisation like PSWA does not have medical help. So, they began an online fund-raising campaign via Milaap. The members started queuing up for basic medical supplies of oximeters or an ambulance in Kolkata. They made do by hiring an autorickshaw to ferry emergency patients to the city. They bought PPE kits for themselves and masks for everyone who did not have one. They pleaded with various organisations and political outfits who get media attention regarding their 'humanitarian' efforts in tackling the pandemic, but that did not help. "Only if a patient is in Kolkata can we do something" pretty much sums up the standard response from mainstream organisations.
Two non-profit organisations based out of Kolkata helped PSWA by providing them with hand-sanitisers and masks. Repeated online campaigns by individuals privy to the efforts partially paid off. The members started a COVID-canteen, from which they provided nutritious meals, including breakfast, to infected patients. They sanitised the neighbourhoods with clusters of infected individuals and procured oxygen cylinders to help patients in desperate need of oxygen before being ferried to Kolkata. They played a significant role in communicating the science of the disease to the masses, consequently getting their guards up against the disease. They saved lives — when the government forgot to acknowledge people. The herculean effort they put in can only be possible with a thorough understanding of the locality and a sense of community.
Just when the ferocity was getting over, Cyclone Yaas struck the region. It was different from Amphan — not as ferocious in terms of the wind. People heaved a sigh of relief, but all too soon. Heavy rain lashed the districts of Kolkata, South and North 24 Parganas for a week. The sea had taken enough, and instead of winds, it gave back with water. Whole areas of South and North 24 Parganas had been inundated with salty seawater. Gosaba block in South 24 Parganas had been badly affected, came the news from relatives of the PSWA members who inhabit Gosaba. Dead fish floated on the seawater, engulfing the region, creating a stink in the whole area. Houses were inundated too — people were forced to come to the half-made roads and stay in temporary shelters. Cooked food was impossible to obtain.
When the members of PSWA reached Gosaba, other NGOs from Kolkata had already arrived. These city-based NGOs carried out relief work only in those areas reachable by concrete road. PSWA members observed that the overcrowding at the end of the road sometimes resulted in different NGOs competing to give relief to the same people. In the regions inward of the main road, the affected people lived in negligence, hunger, and apathy — even of NGOs. PSWA members were shocked to see that some members of NGOs based in Kolkata had come with their whole families, conducting tourism of Sundarban with the excuse of providing relief! A few people even went around drinking and creating ruckus on the same village roads where people now lived with merely plastic over their heads. In the last year, the members of PSWA have seen the worst of human suffering and human apathy.
I amplified my earlier calls for fund-raising, both personally as well as on social media. It helped! With the financial backing, PSWA found a place to cook food every day, got ration, and got to work. Although a small organisation, they started providing cooked, warm meals to the people. The number of people dependent on them for their daily meals soon increased to about 500. For the next few weeks, the members gained the trust of the locals and bleached the localities and ponds of the excessive smell of dead fish. They also conducted a free medical camp in the vicinity.
At the same time, the COVID-canteen at Piyali continued.
During their relief work at Gosaba, the PSWA members ventured into the islands of the Sundarbans. They surveyed how much these islands had been affected by the back-to-back cyclones. Thanks to Amphan, a significant fraction of the mangrove cover vanished overnight. The organisation has taken upon itself another herculean task — of sowing 2,000 local mangrove saplings in the places where the trees belonged earlier. With the help of the local community, they will also be taking care of the sown saplings until the trees start proliferating. The work began on World Environment Day, 2021 but had been stalled because of the heavy monsoon. The members continue to work with local nurseries to obtain new saplings and work with administrative heads of the local and the state government to get the desired permissions. In the meantime, they are reorganising themselves and putting their best foot forward to garner administrative and financial support to carry out such a long-term project.
PSWA volunteers have identified that in the tribal area of Jotirampur, school-going girls and women do not use sanitary napkins. They have conducted one campaign to raise awareness among women regarding menstrual hygiene and distributed sanitary napkins to mothers. They are planning to continue this work in the future, for which they require more logistical support. Recently, the volunteers of PSWA have divided themselves into geographical units and are planning out the future course of action.
As the monsoon has subsided, a fraction of the workforce in Piyali have gotten back their work in Kolkata. The members sincerely hope that the frequent cyclones are less severe, because they will need time to restore a significant fraction of the mangroves which provided vital cover to the region during Amphan. Moreover, bureaucratic hurdles have gotten in the way, and efforts are on to get past these hurdles.
Prantik Sundarban Welfare Association has come a long way — its work has been covered in the local news. In the meantime, the community sewing room has reopened. The womenfolk stitched clothes for kids which the members then distributed in tribal villages of the Sundarban islands during the festive months. As the work continues, plans to extend the products are in the offing. The members hope that the Omicron variant of the SARS-CoV-2 does not throw all ongoing work and plans into the Bay of Bengal.

Air Liquide hosts groundbreaking event at its Bayport industrial complex
News | May 15, 2014
On May 12, 2014, Air Liquide held a groundbreaking ceremony for a major redevelopment project at its complex in the Bayport Industrial District, just east of Houston, Texas.
Air Liquide has invested around $230 million in the project, which includes upgrades to its state-of-the-art, energy efficient cogeneration unit to increase production capacity and extend its life by more than 20 years. The facility will have a full capacity of 300 megawatts of electricity and more than 1,300 tonnes of steam per hour. The project also includes upgrading and expanding the capacity of an air separation unit and additional infrastructure. The major investment will help enable Air Liquide to meet the growing needs of customers throughout the Texas regional basin.
Approximately 250 temporary construction jobs have been created for the multi-phased redevelopment project, which is on track to be completed in the next two years. Thus far, more than 200,000 man hours have been logged with zero lost-time accidents and zero injuries.
Michael Graff, Chairman & CEO of American Air Liquide Holdings, Inc., commented: "Today we are celebrating the renewal and growth of our capabilities along the Texas Gulf Coast. This project will better position Air Liquide to serve the growing needs of our key customers in this region, supplying high quality products in a safe, reliable and efficient way. We are proud to make this major investment in Texas' Bayport Industrial District, and appreciate the continued support of our valued customers, local leaders and neighbors in the community."

Q: Por que essa instrução SQL está incorreta? SELECT * FROM produtos WHERE categoria = 'Vestidos' AND cor = 'Branco' OR cor = 'Rosa'

Retornou 3 registros, 2 deles da categoria Vestidos, e 1 da categoria Sapatos. Por que não retornou somente da categoria Vestidos já que eu instrui categoria = 'Vestidos'?

A: Em alternativa as outras respostas, você pode também utilizar o operador de comparação IN para verificar se o valor pretendido está dentre um conjunto de valores, exemplo:
SELECT *
FROM produtos
WHERE categoria = 'Vestido' AND cor IN ('branco','rosa');

A: SELECT * FROM produtos WHERE categoria = 'Vestidos' AND (cor = 'Branco' OR cor = 'Rosa')

A: Entenda a sua consulta como sendo a seguinte (explicando do modo conversa de bar):
Você quer saber se existe produtos da categoria 'Vestidos' e da cor 'Branco' e caso não seja isso (OR) que seja da cor 'Rosa', ou seja, ele esquece as duas condições anteriores  e passa a interpretar somente a última, ou se houver resultados para as duas condições ele retorna.
Sendo assim se a condição cor = 'Rosa' faz parte da condição categoria = 'Vestidos', sua consulta deverá associar os "OR's" com parenteses, sendo:
SELECT * FROM produtos WHERE categoria = 'Vestidos' AND (cor = 'Branco' OR cor = 'Rosa')

A forma correta

A: O AND tem precedência sobre o OR. Então seu critério é entendido assim:
(categoria = 'Vestidos' AND cor = 'Branco') OR cor = 'Rosa'

Você precisa colocar os parênteses no local adequado para conseguir o resultado desejado.

Q: When using nested tabs with jqueryui, how can you catch events from only the parent widget I'm using the jqueryui widget, tabs. I'm in a situation where I have tab nested within tabs.
I want to handle events from the parent tabs widget only (#tabs) but ignore the nested child (#tabs2). Is this possible?
Example on jsFiddle
HTML:

One

Two

    1st

One

Two

        1st

        2nd

    2nd

JS:
$( "#tabs" ).on( "tabsactivate", function( event, ui ) {

    // This code will execute whether the event came from #tabs or #tabs2

    $("#debug").text("Activated tab " + ui.newPanel.selector);
} );

Output:

A: Since child element is firing the same event, you need to filter event coming from the child.
It can be done in this way:
$("#tabs" ).on("tabsactivate", function( event, ui ) {
    if(this !== event.target)
    {
        return false;
    }
    $("#debug").text("Activated tab " + ui.newPanel.selector);
});
