Forecast.io is web service that provides weather data for a given latitude and longitude.
Installing Ionic is quick and easy. To get started, I've summarized the installation steps below. You can find additional information here.
First, download the build of Node.js appropriate for your platform and install it, if you don't already have it on your machine, that is. This should install NPM (Node Package Manager) as well.
Ionic runs on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows, but you'll need to use the command line to create the app, add platforms and launch the app in an emulator or a device. For Windows users, git bash is a better alternative to the platform's command prompt. More details can be found right here.
Ionic framework should now be successfully installed on your machine.
Now let's create an app. From the terminal, go to your project folder. Type the following command to create a blank app with tabs.
Simply replace tabs in the above line with blank or sidemenu to create a blank app, or an application with a side menu.
That's it! In a few lines, we've installed Ionic and quickly created a starter app. It doesn't really do much at this time so let's get to work.
We're building a simple app that displays current weather data for a selected city by pulling data from Forecast.io.
Our app has three pages. Page one displays the current temperature and weather conditions for a default city. The second page contains a list of cities. Selecting one of these cities will display its weather details. While the third page is a placeholder for storing app settings, we won't be covering them in this tutorial.
Before we begin, head over to Forecast.io and signup as a developer to get your own API key for use with this walkthrough.
The application should look like the image below when we are done.
So, let's get started. Navigate to the folder www/templates from your application root directory. This folder contains template files that will be rendered for the app. Since we opted to use the tabs style starter app, Ionic has created some files in this folder.
To make things a bit easier, let's modify the generated files slightly to suit our needs.
Replace code in tab-home.html with the code below.
Here we're displaying the weather data for the current city. Current is a scope item that contains weather data returned from Forecast.io.
Save your changes. Next, open tab-cities.html and replace the code inside it with the code below to display a list of cities using ion-list.
Next open tabs.html. This contains code that defines the tabs that appear at the bottom of all pages. Replace the code inside the file with the code below to link the tabs with the view templates we just modified.
Next, let's define the routes. Open js/app.js and replace the code with the lines below.
After defining templates and adding routes, we'll create controllers. Open js/controllers.js and replace the code inside it with what's below.
Home: Defines two scopes, city and current. Current is data returned from an API request. City names are retrieved from DataStore factory. Here we're calling the method 'getCurrentWeather' defined in factory 'Weather' passing in latitude and longitude.
Lastly, let's take a look at js/services.js. This file defines services and factory objects. Factory objects allow different controllers to share the same data.
We have to make on last change before we can see the app in action. Navigate to the "www" folder and open index.html.
Now, add the following after the line above.
You can also view the app in a browser. If you don't have web server installed, you can use Python's SimpleHTTPServer. From the terminal, navigate to the "www" folder and run the following command.
Now, open your favorite browser and visit http://localhost:3000 to see the app running.
In this article, we saw how to get started with Ionic, an advanced HTML5 framework for hybrid app development.
In future articles, we'll take a look at enhancing the app by adding support for a remote backend with Parse.


She stood in front of her bedroom mirror, tracing rib-cage indentations with her fingertips. She was naked except for her padded bra and Victoria's Secret underwear that she bought with babysitting money. Her eyes rolled up and down her body. Pumping her belly in and out, she was, by her own accounts, "fat." Her hair had been hot-rolled; the heavy curls dangled around her shoulders and fell to her back with each belly push. She didn't belong in track and field. She was curvy. She didn't have a runner's body. She should be a swimmer, not a runner—she lived many years believing that lie she sold herself.
My eyes looked down and ahead, watching for cracked sidewalks. But sometimes I'd look up, and I'd watch the runners that dotted the neighborhood. Some were old, some curvy, some tall, some small. They all had perfect runners' bodies.
After two babies and 10 years of marriage, I don't see the girl in the mirror now. She has been happily replaced. My body ripples on its frame and is checkered with "mama stripes," evidence of my belly growing rapidly to make space for my babies. I see a perfect runner's body now.
When I run, I watch as my shadow dances alongside me. When I first started running, I stared, disgusted, as I saw my body's puckered pieces dislodged from tight workout clothes outlined in the shadows cast upon the grass. I don't see those puckers anymore. I see a strong mom. I see a woman taking time to reflect and write words in her head. I see a new definition of a runner's body. A perfect runner's body is a body that runs.
Just like a dog that paces around the living room with angst to release energy, I need my runs. Don't get me wrong; I dread them and force myself out of the house. I do love to make excuses: I need more time with my kids, I'm exhausted from a night of interrupted sleep, the heat, a full stomach. I have excuses, but when I get there, I belong.
This is my perfect runner's body. It slowly ticks away mileage, steady and strong. My runner's body is peppered with stretch marks and folds of skin, but it doesn't care. My perfect runner's body doesn't read magazine covers. It disregards the lies I've told it. It is free and ready to run.
Release the expectation of what your body can do. Release the lies you have told yourself about what type of body you have and of what you are capable. Only you must bear witness, because only you must believe you have a perfect runner's body.


Hey folks, 1st post here. My wife and I finished our whole 30 challenge about 8 days ago. It went great and all the benefits are there. We love it, so much so that we are just continuing on the program and are not (as of yet) introducing anything back. No need as we see it.
However, I am curious about the gut healing process, excessive bathroom visits,etc.. I know in the book there is mention of the intestines healing themselves and such and there could be diarhea. That did in fact happen several times for me during the 30 days. Although it tapered off, there appears to be a resurrgence of sorts.
Today I have been in the bathroom no less than 12 times. I was wondering if there was anyone else that has had this happen, and/or could any one shed light onto the topic? Specifically, how do you know if there is a problem, or it's just a "healing process?"
Did you eat anything different recently? There's just a chance that with your digestive system starting to heal, you're now actually more sensitive to foods you could formerly ingest without any problems. And they don't have to be noncompliant foods. Some of us are sensitive to foods that are in the Whole30 approved list.
Interesting, I hadn't thought of that. THank you!
Some people find too many raw veggies can be a bit rough to adjust to. Cooking veggies may help, as does keeping a food log, seeing if anything is a trigger.
Are you doing reintroductions right now?
Same issue here Day 9. Constant digestive upset.
Anybody have any ideas how to avoid this?
Also I'm a bit confused by the suggestion that it might indicate your gut is healing. How would that work exactly? Why might you have negative symptoms as part of healing?
You also may have caught a virus, I would give it a day or two.
After our 30 days were over, Hubz complained that his stomach was a little funny. He made further tweaks when I pointed out that he still ate a lot of fruit. For him, the fructose was the trigger. Everyone is different, so keep track of what you're eating, make changes, and you will figure it out.
I decided to try cutting out coconut oil, as that's the only different food I've added since starting the Whole30 (already ate paleo before, but always cooked with butter). The digestion cleared up pretty quickly after that, so I guess I just have low tolerance for coconut oil After the Whole30 I'm also considering experimenting with reducing FODMAPS, since I've had more minor stomach/digestive symptoms for years and these haven't in any way improved on the Whole30 as I was hoping.
Sometimes it's also worth trying other brands. There's a refined coconut oil (very yellow, instead of white) I bought by mistake once and it made me feel really sick.
I'm sure you're right about different brands. I'll look into it if I need to use coconut oil for any recipes. However, its a lot pricier than just making ghee from butter at home, so I don't think I'll be using it this much again.

As I see winter fading and spring approaching, new life comes into my spirit. The wet and the cold will soon be fading and warmth and sunlight will take its place. It is a time for dreaming.
I dream of everything I wish to accomplish before I pass away; writing the stories that are bursting inside of me, listening to the pitter-patter of my grandchildren's feet, watching my precious children raise their own families, and maybe even spending winters in a warmer climate someday. I have so many dreams. My dreams drive me to keep trying.
I feel sadness for those who have been through such great pain that their dreams have been smothered. But I wish to tell those people that their dreams are still alive deep inside their hearts. If they search their innermost being, they will find their dreams once again. And then they will find hope to go on.
This state of living we find ourselves in is just that—a state. It can change from day to day and we have the power to change it from moment to moment if we wish. Even making the choice to smile at someone who looks depressed can change the feeling of the entire day for us and the person we smiled at.
I am so thankful that we can create our lives in such a way. So today I am encouraging myself and all of you who are reading this to dream your dreams. Who knows where they will take you? And don't just dream them—be them!


Vesta is proving tricky to interpret. Dawn has been there for only a few months, and the data gathered so far has already disproven a number of preconceived notions and generated dozens of new puzzles. Fortunately, scientists love puzzles! But Vesta's puzzling qualities, combined with the rigors of keeping up with a mission in the middle of orbital operations, make for slower going on the science front than we spectators might like. At the American Geophysical Union meeting in San Francisco on Monday, Vishnu Reddy summed up the challenge: "In geology, one of the simplest tools that we have at our disposal is comparison," that is, comparing something new to other things we've studied in the past. "Is there anything else we can compare Vesta to? The answer is no."
There was a Dawn press briefing Monday, followed by a full day of Dawn talks on Tuesday, followed by poster sessions on Wednesday. I couldn't stay for the poster sessions but took a bunch of notes on press briefing and talks. There was not a lot of news in the press briefing; the biggest piece of news, I think, was the announcement that gravity studies have shown that Vesta is definitely differentiated, with mass concentrated toward the center, like the planets and most of the large moons. This was expected from the different compositions of Vesta's many meteorites. With differentiation, you'd expect there to be volcanism, but so far the search for definitively volcanic features has been fruitless. Upon close inspection, a promising-looking candidate for a volcano, an "unusual dark hill," shows no convincing features of a volcanic origin. The dark splat appears to be a surface deposit. It could be dark material from an impactor, or an impactor could have struck some subterranean dark deposit.
There was slightly more detail in the oral sessions. Vesta has a variety of types and colors of surface features, and everywhere there is evidence of landslides and slumps ("mass movement features," in geologists' lingo). Vesta appears to be especially conducive to landslides because it has high gravity (for an asteroid), locally unusually steep slopes, and a very thick surface layer of broken-up rock ("regolith"), hundreds of meters thick. For comparison, the lunar regolith is estimated to be only a few to ten meters thick.
Vesta's craters commonly have odd shapes. The large crater in the bottom left of the image has a very distinct, sharp rim on the left side, while the right side has a much more degraded rim. Dawn obtained this image with its framing camera on September 30, 2011 from a distance of 702 km at a resolution of about 63 meters per pixel.
What's going on here? With the benefit of topographic information (which I don't have for this particular image), scientists can see that these craters often occur where there are steep slopes. After the crater forms, the upslope wall collapses in a landslide that fills the floor and sometimes even runs out over the downslope rim. On a crater where this has happened, none of the original rim is preserved -- it's all either collapsed or been buried in a landslide.
A model impact onto Vesta from Emily Lakdawalla on Vimeo.
Ejecta distribution after a modeled impact on Vesta from Emily Lakdawalla on Vimeo.
In a paper published in 2011 in Geophysical Research Letters, Martin Jutzi and Eric Asphaug modeled the effects of a 50-kilometer body striking a spherical, rotating asteroid the size of Vesta at an oblique angle. This animation shows the distribution of impact ejecta following the imapct. Orange shows the pre-impact elevations; reds are higher elevation than before; yellows through purples represent lower elevation than before the impact. There is a clear low center to the impact site but because of Vesta's rotation the ejecta is asymmetric in its distribution, piling up in a steep wall on one side of the asteroid and spreading out in a gradually shallowing deposit on the opposite side.
Asphaug summarized the high points: "Vesta's mega-craters grow and collapse on a time scale comparable to its 4-hour rotation, so there are Coriolis effects on the ejecta. Excavation and collapse take about an hour. The Coriolis effect generates vorticity. Is it a stormy crater? Does it generate a maelstrom of flow within the crater?" Unfortunately for Asphaug and Jutzi's model, though, the present topography of the real Vesta does not look very much like the endpoint of their simulation. Asphaug had a sense of humor about this: "There's a sweet spot to modeling asteroids where you have enough data, but not too much data." He earned a chuckle from the audience for that one.
Why don't the models match reality? Asphaug suggested three reasons. He said the target structure may be different than what they modeled -- Vesta may have greater internal strength. The impact was probably a lot less energetic than the one they modeled, now that they know that Vesta's south polar basin is actually two overlapping impact basins. And finally, "we probably did not model the event to completion." Their model goes through the one-hour period of excavation and collapse, but no longer. Asphaug said that Vesta may actually "ring" for hours or even days after such a large impact, with crustal motions that can cause landslides and softening of features that do form. (He called this the "roach motel" model of Vesta's core, crediting Jeff Moore for the conceit: "energy can get in but it can't get out.") Unfortunately, identifying the possible problems doesn't make the modeling task any easier. To map out the range of possible outcomes given the range of possible basin-forming events on the range of possible physical properties for Vesta to even two hours of time after the impact woud require hundreds of simulations and a 128-processor computer running continuously for years. "3D modeling is best used as a tool to test a few key hypotheses," he concluded.


Democrats are seething with rage.
Republicans succeeded in confirming Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.
And that led one Democrat to make a promise about Kavanaugh he will live to regret.
Democrats have not given up on their goal to destroy Kavanaugh.
Even after the Senate confirmed Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, Democrats are still plotting to destroy him.
Liberals are demanding that the Democrats impeach Kavanaugh if they win back Congress in November.
And that put one Democrat on the hot seat.
If the Democrats win control of Congress, Representative Jerry Nadler will run the House Judiciary Committee.
The New York Times exclusively interviewed Nadler.
But Nadler's interview was a big mistake.
Going into the Kavanaugh fight, Democrats held an edge in the midterm elections.
Their voters were more fired up than Republicans.
But that all changed when the Democrats unleashed their scorched-earth tactics to stop his nomination.
One poll showed that the Democrats' previous 10-point advantage in which party's voters were more enthusiastic to vote in the midterms had shrunk to only 2 points.
And other polls found Republican Senate candidates surging in key races.
Voters in red states responded to the fake news media and Democrats smear campaign.
While some pundits contend other issues will arise in the final weeks before the midterms and this wave will pass, if Republican voters believe Democrats will impeach Justice Kavanaugh, their intensity will carry over.
Kavanaugh became a rallying cry for many conservatives.
Nadler made a big mistake entertaining the thought of impeaching Kavanaugh.
He only ended up reminding Republican voters why they need to turnout in November.
And Donald Trump echoed that same sentiment.
Trump put the Democrats' extremism front and center in his pitch to inspire Republican voters to turnout in November.
Republicans believe the Kavanaugh fight was a turning point.
They will find out if they are right on November 6.

Recap: Bucs v. Dolphins
The only people who would say that football is BACK are the nerds who want to see what their team is going to look like in the regular season. Everyone else just (correctly) says it's a bunch of backups and folks who aren't going to make the team anyway. However, for the Bucs this is a big transition year as they are flush with young talent from 3 solid drafts, a coach in his second year, and growing pressure on the franchise to show some growth and maturity. After watching the first preseason game, I think some questions have been answered.
Last year's offense was a bit of a hodge-podge of philosophies, with Jeff Jagodzinski being hired as the coordinator and being fired within 8 months. When Greg Olson was promoted from QB coach to coordinator weeks before the season began, he kept most of the tenets of Jagodzinski's offense and added a few wrinkles of his own. However at times the playcalling seemed uninspired, and I think that can be attributed to 50% Olson not being comfortable calling HIS plays, and 50% personnel issues.
Saturday night's game at Miami was a great glimpse into what this year's offense will look like with the coaching staff and personnel in place. Olson wants the offensive line to establish the line of scrimmage and get Cadillac Williams and the Bucs' ground game rolling. Williams was impressive in ripping off a pair of 8-yard runs and finishing the night with 21 yards on four carries (5.3 avg.). Once the ground game was established and used with some regularity, the quarterbacks took some big shots downfield in a vertical passing game. Josh Freeman hit Mike Williams on a 30-yard fade pass to help set up Sammie Stroughter's 13-yard touchdown catch two plays later. Josh Johnson threw deep twice to Reggie Brown and Arrelious Benn, but was off the mark on both throws and saw his pass to Brown get intercepted. Rudy Carpenter threw deep down the middle to Chris Brooks, who hauled in a 31-yard pass before fumbling the ball – and the game – away with just over two minutes left in regulation. Freeman finished the game 4-of-4 for 53 yards and one touchdown and that's exactly what Olson wants to see. If everything goes as planned, Williams' running will set Freeman up for manageable passing downs, high-percentage passes and a couple deep shots, and touchdowns instead of field goals inside the red zone. This offense isn't going to be that much different from what we saw when Gruden was in town, honestly. I think the main difference will be that Olson is a bit more patient than Gruden ever was, and I think that'll lend to a more balanced attack.
The defense looks to be a whole lot of the same if you are used to seeing mostly base cover 2 defense. Gone is the 'vectoring' style of defense that essentially funnels running plays to the MLB and forces corners to play straight up man the entire game. This passive style of defense relies of big, strong players to keep everything in the middle of the field, and frankly those players just don't exist on the Bucs roster currently. So, we've gone back to the older style of smaller, attacking, penetrating down linemen with mostly zone behind it. It's hard to really know what sort of schemes we'll see going forward since some personnel were missing (Talib, their best corner, being the main one), so I'm curious to see how much we see man coverage this year at all. My guess is we'll see a very small amount, mostly on plays where we see nickel backs on the field and Ronde Barber bliztes from the slot (that's still one of their favorite plays). The Bucs did a good job of swarming to the ball, got some pressure on the QB, and forced a few turnovers. However, the Dolphins were able to run up the middle early on at will. I think the interior linemen will be tested early and often until they can prove they can stop that sort of thing. It was the weakness of the defense last year, and something tells me it will be early on this year as 2 of the top 3 DTs are rookies. It's going to take some time for them to get accustomed to the speed of the league.
Overall, I think that the Bucs had a lot to like about their first game. They actually dominated physically and the first team offense looked really crisp in some awful weather. Freeman was 4/4 with a TD and Caddy was running hard. However, I think one thing you'll quickly notice about this team is the HUGE dropoff from the first team to the second team. This happens a lot with younger squads who are rebuilding. I think if you look around, the Bucs are maybe one or two players away from having a squad that could, in theory, challenge for a playoff spot. The problem is that they have no depth behind the core they're building. So, if and when a player goes down with injury, you're going to see a huge drop off in production. God help them if Freeman gets hurt or another player without a solid backup goes down. If you look at the Bucs roster on paper, they have enough talent to compete with anyone. However, the lack of depth points to a team that will be lucky to win more than 6 or 7 games. I think they're a year away.
A few other notes from the game this weekend:
Freeman looks in control. 100%. Good movement in the pocket, doesn't try to run first. Eyes downfield.
It'll be interesting to see how much we see the FB dive with Earnest Graham playing at FB full time now. He could be a valuable weapon.
Interior run game looks a lot better than sweeps and tackle runs.
Mike Willliams will be a star in the NFL. Write it down.
Derrick Ward is terrible. I think Kareem Huggins will beat him out for the #2 RB job. Ward was the 'speed guy' in NY, but can't get outside in Tampa. Defense strings it out and kills the play every time. He has no burst and no power, either.
The Bucs were flagged seven times for 58 yards.
TB slowly is becoming one of the best ST teams in the league. Punting and kick return teams will take pressure off of a young offense and put them in position to put points on the board.

As the OPEC meeting gets nearer, Saudi Arabia the de facto leader of OPEC finds itself pulled in opposite directions. One direction is not to cut production as President Trump is demanding having lost a lot of leverage with the United States as a result of the shielding provided to it by the Trump administration in the aftermath of the murder of the Saudi journalist.
The other direction is that its economy needs an oil price above $80 a barrel to be able to balance the budget. Therefore, it has no alternative but to try to persuade OPEC in their meeting in December to cut production. If Saudi Arabia's oil minister Khalid al-Falih is now saying that his country will not cut production without a collective decision from the OPEC+ members, then he should have consulted them before he succumbed to President Trump's pressure on his country and raised oil production in collaboration with Russia against the wishes of the overwhelming majority of OPEC members in their meeting in June. The Saudis sacrificed then their national interests and those of the OPEC members to please President Trump.
Still, OPEC need not cut any production. The overwhelming OPEC members could be against any new cuts. Instead, they will demand that Saudi Arabia and Russia withdraw the 650,000 barrels a day (b/d) they jointly added to the market in June and return them to the original 1.8 mbd cut under the OPEC/non-OPEC agreement. In so doing, the glut in the market will ease.
Having made a grave mistake in June by adding 650,000 b/d to the market, Saudi Arabia and Russia are not in a position to ask OPEC members for new cuts.
There is no doubt that the escalating trade war between the US and China has created uncertainty in the global economy impacting on the growth of the global demand for oil. That is why the forthcoming meeting between President Trump and the Chinese leader Xi Jingping on Saturday on the fringes of the G20 summit in Buenos Aires is awaited with great anticipation.
That is why I believe that President Trump may be more inclined to strike a deal with the Chinese President ending the trade war. Still, in typical Trump's pattern, he will declare victory exactly as he did with North Korea. However, the global economy will give a huge sigh of relief.

Nearly Half Of US Congressmen And Senators Are Millionaires. What's Wrong With This Picture?!?
Sometimes, I wonder why folks bother running for elected office. The hours are long. You open your family up to incredible scrutiny. The money's good, but the job security isn't, especially if you're just a Congressman. And of course, the system's so unfixably broken, even the most starry eyed optimist can be quickly reduced to cynicism. You know, sorta like watching the Redskins play.
Still, each year, hundreds of Real Americans put their hats in the ring to gain one of only 530-some coveted gigs in DC. Some of them undoubtedly do it for the financial come-up (ie: TeaBagging douche extraordinaire Joe Walsh) while others are already caked up, and use the gig to influence legislation and ensure they'll get caked up even more. Meet the public servant's version of The 1%.
Forget Wall Street. With riches like these, "Occupy Congress" may make more sense.
That's because 250 members of Congress — or 47 percent — have a net worth of more than $1 million, according to a new study by the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics.
The study, which analyzed data from legislators' financial disclosure forms, found the average senator had a net worth of about $2.63 million last year. That's up 11 percent from $2.38 million in 2009 and 16 percent from $2.27 million in 2008.
"The vast majority of members of Congress are quite comfortable financially, while many of their own constituents suffer from economic hardships," Sheila Krumholz, executive director of the Center for Responsive Politics, said in a statement.
Some have suggested the dizzying financial success enjoyed by members of Congress is about more than luck, or even good business sense. Peter Schweizer, a fellow with the conservative Hoover Institution, has said lawmakers profit from a kind of "insider trading" that might get them in trouble outside the halls of Congress.
"There are all sorts of forms of honest grafts that congressmen engage in that allow them to become very, very wealthy. So it's not illegal, but I think it's highly unethical, I think it's highly offensive, and wrong," Schweizer, the author of "Throw Them All Out," a book accusing congressmen of using their influence and connections to make smart investments, said in an interview with CBS' "60 Minutes" this month.
"For example, insider trading on the stock market," he said. "If you are a member of Congress, those laws are deemed not to apply."
Even without exact figures, however, it's clear that as most Americans struggled in recent years, contending with high unemployment rates and plummeting home values, Congress has only gotten richer. Last year, the combined net worth of Congress skyrocketed to more than $2 billion — a 25 percent increase from 2008, according to a separate look at the lawmakers' earnings from the Washington newspaper Roll Call.
Meanwhile, the average U.S. family lost 23 percent of its net worth between 2007 and 2009, according to figures released by the Federal Reserve this year.
That said, some members of Congress do considerably better than others. Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., topped the list with an estimated net worth of somewhere between $195 million and $700 million, for example, while Rep. Alcee Hastings, D-Fla., is apparently the poorest member of Congress, with estimated total net debt of between $2 million and $7 million. According to the study, though, 110 Democrats and 140 Republicans in Congress are millionaires.
Look, I'd be the last person to discourage people from getting rich. It's sorta the American Dream and whatnot. Even if you're born into wealth, reality is, being rich sure as hell beats being late on your Verizon bill. I'd much rather own Verizon.
Still, it's not all that shocking that folks on Capitol Hill can drag their feet extending unemployment benefits, threaten to shutdown the government (although they'd still get paid if that happened), and basically hijack the entire legislative process to ensure rich people keep this Bush tax cuts. It's because most of them either have no point of reference to the day to day struggles of "Real Americans" or are so far removed that it doesn't really matter. It's why a Presidential candidate can actually suggest using child labor to solve the issue of inner city poverty with a straight face. If I was getting $30k/hour to serve as "historian" for Freddie and Fannie, I'd probably be equally clueless, Newt. It's alright, we understand. Sorta.
I think you'd find far more principled, effective people running for Congress if you made it a job with term limits (3 for the House, 1 for Senate) and greatly decreased the pay and perks. Maybe folks like Darrell Issa would find better things to do with their time. You know, like laying on a bed full of $700 million one dollar bills.
BTW, Alcee Hastings, how in the ham sammich did you rack up between $2M and $7M in debt?!? Please retire your dusty, broke ass right now and go call The Hulkster.
That commercial always kills me. Hulk's talkin' about "it's tough out there" while sitting in a 30 story condo overlooking Biscayne Bay. Yep, real tough out here, brother. Real tough.
Question: Is there an inherent conflict of interest when you're a multimillionaire holding elected office? Is it possible to understand "the little guy" when you've got the net worth of an NFL franchise?

A: I recently had this error and discovered if the Module was set to the 'Current Product Module' instead of the default 'Global' the problem was resolved.
To change the Module of an entity:

*

*Select it.

*Select its attributes.

*Go to the class section.

*Click on the 'Module' dropdown menu.

*Select 'Current Product Module'

A: I think you are working an example from Ray's site (https://www.raywenderlich.com/).  The code is nearly a replica. I had same issue, perplexing.
I inspected the core-data model: Select (FILE.xcdatamodelid) where FILE is name of your project.  Somewhere, I clobbered the model. Simply add an entity, rename it to Person, add attribute called name with String type. Rebuild and run.

L'opération Chrome Dome est l'un des nombreux programmes militaires de l'United States Air Force pendant la guerre froide, initié par le président des États-Unis Lyndon B. Johnson et conçu par le général Thomas S. Power.

Il impliquait des Boeing B-52 Stratofortress du Strategic Air Command en vol, armés d'armes thermonucléaires, assignés à des objectifs en Union des républiques socialistes soviétiques en cas de déclenchement de la Troisième Guerre mondiale.

Historique
En 1960, le Strategic Air Command (SAC) de l'USAF commence l'opération Chrome Dome, un programme d'alerte en vol de la guerre froide conçu par le général Thomas S. Power qui fait voler des B-52 Stratofortress équipés d'armes nucléaires près des frontières de l'Union soviétique. Les vols sont programmés de façon que douze bombardiers soient en l'air à tout moment, avec des missions de 20 à 23 heures au-dessus du cercle Arctique et de la mer Méditerranée. Ces bombardiers donnent au SAC des capacités offensives dans le cas d'une première frappe soviétique, et fournit une force de dissuasion nucléaire significative de la guerre froide.

Démarrée initialement en 1958 sous le nom de code Head Start puis Round Robin, l'opération Chrome Dome a commencé en 1962. Elle connut un accident en janvier 1966 au large des côtes méditerranéennes espagnoles, avec la destruction d'un bombardier et d'un avion ravitailleur entraînant la mort de neuf membres d'équipage et la destruction de deux des quatre bombes H transportées.

Elle a pris fin le , à la suite d'un second accident au-dessus de Thulé au nord-ouest du Groenland, avec la destruction d'un bombardier à la suite d'un incendie, tuant un des sept membres d'équipage et la destruction des bombes H transportées.

Lors de ces deux accidents, il n'y a pas eu d'explosion nucléaire mais de la dispersion de matières radioactives.

I feel like it has been a slight moment since I have shared a good graphic/band tee with you all. It seems that I go through phases, where ALL I wear is band tees day after day, and then weeks where I wear more basics like a simple white or black tee. I found this Guns + Roses tee while out shopping a couple weeks ago. It was actually the week where I just wasn't feeling any store or piece of clothing in the store due to being in that super awkward phase of pregnancy. I saw that this band tee was a bit oversized, and decided to just get the medium and roll with it.
So far, so good! Loving the fun color for this time of year. Heck! I might as well say this is my valentines look. Because I haven't put any thought into a good Valentines look just yet. I may come around, but as for now, this red/burgundy color is as close as it is getting.
Are you someone who loves to embrace the Valentines wear? All the hearts, bold pinks and reds, etc. It honestly depends on the year for me. Most of the time I keep things simple, and not to "out there" Things that don't scream Valentines Day necessarily. That way I can get away with wearing the item over and over again.

Coach Felix Magath has extended his contract at VfL Wolfsburg for two additional years, bringing him through the 2014-2015 season. The veteran manager, 58, led Wolfsburg to an eighth place finish in the 2011/2012 season after rejoining Wolfsburg late in the prior season, helping the reeling club avoid relegation.
Magath, the son of a Puerto Rican father and German mother, had a lengthy career as an offensive midfielder in the Bundesliga, playing in over 300 league matches for Hamburger SV while representing West Germany on 43 occasions between 1977 and 1986. He was on three Bundesliga championship clubs while at Hamburg, while also being part of the 1980 West German Euro championship team.
Magath began his coaching career with Hamburg during the 1995-1996 season, and has spent his entire coaching career working with German clubs, including Bayern München, 1 FC Nurnberg, Werder Bremen, Eintracht Frankurt, VfB Stuttgart and FC Schalke and is now is on his second stint as Wolfsburg's head coach. Magath won two league championships with Bayern, as well as two DFB Pokal championships, and brougbt Wolfsburg its only Bundesliga championship during the 2008/2009 season.
Magath stated following his extension in the Volkswagen city.
I am delighted that VfL have given me the opportunity to work for the long term. Even in the last season, most of our decisions have been taken in perspective. Now we have to continue this work and expand. We want VfL to mature into a solid team in the Bundesliga.
Wolfsburg chairmon Dr. Francisco Javier Garcia Sanz had this to say about Magath's extension.
We believe in continuity and with Magath we are on the right track. Under him the club had its most successful period. The early contract extension is an expression of our confidence. With Felix Magath we can achieve both our short-term goals, such as the battle for European Cup places next year, as well as take the long-term view. VfL want to be a club that is consistently in the upper third of the league.
After wholesale personnel changes made by Magath during last season's winter break, the Die Wolfe club responded with a stronger second half, rising four places in the table from their first-half of the season finish and falling just four points short of the Bundesliga's final Europa League spot.
Hamburger SV will celebrate their 125th anniversary during the upcoming season. The only German club to not be relegated from the Bundesliga since its 1963 inception, the red-shorts have announced that they will begin their anniversary celebration by hosting a friendly July 24 against perhaps the world's currently most followed club, FC Barcelona.
Hamburg marketing and communications director Joachim Hilke remarked on the club's website.
It is a great honour for Hamburg to be able to attract Barcelona to a friendly match here in the HSV-Arena.The game against this extraordinary team will crown our 125th anniversary celebrations and is a unique opportunity for our fans.
FC Schalke will also host an iconic European team, AC Milan, on the same date in Gelsenkirchen.

Renoir and the happy profession of painting
Pierre-August Renoir, only August for his mother because Pierre Renoir has too many "r's", the town of porcelain was born in 1841 in Limoges. The modest but hardworking family moved to Paris when August was only 3 years old.
Little Renoir lived a happy and carefree childhood. When he began to attend school, two remarkable talents were revealed in him. He had a melodious and gifted voice, to the point that the teachers urged the family to enroll him for free even at the Opera singing school.
On rainy days, little August used to steal his father's chalks (who was a tailor) and draw anything and everything. His drawings were so beautiful that his father, despite the prohibitive cost, bought blocks and pencils to encourage his son to become a painter and decorator of porcelain.
So the family declined the generous and rare offer of music teacher Charles Gounod to one day see their son become a painter. Little Renoir is proud and happy he went wild by cultivating his artistic talent.
At the age of thirteen he entered as an apprentice painter in a porcelain factory distinguishing himself for his floral compositions and the complexity of his creations.
Unfortunately, the factory closed and Renoir found himself out of work. He did not lose heart and made do on his own by painting fans and fabrics. In a short time he was liked and requested by everyone, because he was appreciated for his beautiful and bright subjects.
Meanwhile he did not stop studying painting and in the breaks he ran to the Louvre to absorb the best from the masterpieces on display. With the money that Renoir had saved, he also enrolled at the École des Beaux-Arts and privately with the painter Gabriel Gleyre.
Renoir absorbed all the classical and academic teachings with fervor, but his touch and his stroke remained fast, lively, effervescent.
To the reproaches of the staid teacher, August replied: "If it didn't amuse me, please believe I wouldn't paint at all."
This is the keystone of Renoir's work.
Brotherly friend of Bazille, Monet etc. he was a convinced and spontaneous interpreter of impressionism. This, however, only to the extent that his "profession" as a painter coincided with this pictorial current. Renoir was totally foreign to conceptual manifestos and intellectual programs: Renoir paints.
He paints in his own way and that's enough for him.
For him, painting is a profession such as carpentry, ironworking, etc. nothing less. He called himself a "painting worker".
In times of theories, doctrines, aesthetics and metaphysics Renoir's work develops day by day exactly as a flower grows and blooms.
A poetic, if we can call it that, that starts from Renoir's intimate happiness that as a painter he wants to convey with his paintings, from the first to the last he created.
In his old age he amazed the twenties with his very acute eyesight, pointing to small birds or details of the landscape that, despite the indications, they could not see.
And when he was hit violently by rheumatoid arthritis, do you think he lost heart? He had his brushes tied to his fingers and at a good pace to "work".
After all, Renoir's lesson is that nothing can stop a painter happy to paint.


Whether or not you're unsure about future career choices or have some suggestions that you want to discover further, there's a lot of support accessible. It is far better to seek the advice of a career counselor just before deciding on the subjects you take up in school.

Request For Proposals Released For Mixed-Use Development Site At 2870 Webster Avenue, Bedford Park
The New York Botanical Garden has released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a mixed-use development assemblage at 2856-2870 Webster Avenue and 412 Bedford Park Boulevard, in Bedford Park. According to Curbed NY, the site could accommodate roughly 300 residential units, in addition to a 125-plus-key hotel and at least 12,000 square feet of retail. The site is located right above the Metro-North Railroad's Botanical Garden station and currently consists of multiple low-rise commercial buildings. Proposal submissions are due on March 1, and the Garden is hoping to choose a developer before April.
Eight-Story, 60-Unit Mixed-Use Building In The Works At 98-02 Queens Boulevard, Rego Park
Over the summer, YIMBY reported on filings for an eight-story mixed-use building at 98-02 Queens Boulevard, in Rego Park, and now DNAinfo has the latest information on the project, which will have 60 rental apartments. The new building will encompass 75,000 square feet and will feature one-, two-, and three-bedroom units. Retail will span the entire ground floor and 7,000 square feet of community space will be located on the first level. The residential units on the top seven floors will average 657 square feet apiece. George Baharestani's Bahar Corporation is developing, and Forest Hills-based Peter Casini is the architect of record. The existing single-story retail building will be demolished in the spring once the remaining tenants have vacant the property. Demolition permits were filed last October. Completion is expected in the second half of 2017.
Five-Building, 31-Unit Mixed-Use Development Planned At 42-02 Fort Hamilton Parkway, Borough Park
Back in 2014, a row of five four-story, four-unit residential buildings were built from 1038-1052 42nd Street, in northern Borough Park, and now five more buildings have been granted permits on the same block. Adjacent to the completed buildings, there will be three four-story, four-unit residential structures at 1054-1058 42nd Street. The residential square footage of each building varies, but will total between 5,500 and 6,000 square feet. Closer to Fort Hamilton Parkway, two seven-story mixed-use buildings are planned at 1060-1066 42nd Street. Both structures will have retail and community facility space, but one will contain nine residential units and the other will have 10 units.
First Look At City Point's 57-Story, 500-Unit Mixed-Use Tower At 138 Willoughby Street, DoBro
Last month, YIMBY reported on pre-filings for Extell Development's 57-story mixed-use tower planned at 138 Willoughby Street, in Downtown Brooklyn. The building would be City Point's third and final phase, and now the Brooklyn Paper has the first look at the 692-foot-tall tower. The building will have a four-story, 65,000-square-foot retail base topped by 500 residential units. A decision has not been made for whether the units will be rentals or condominiums, but the developer is reportedly "leaning towards condos." Kohn Pedersen Fox is the design architect, while SLCE Architects is serving as the architect of record. Construction is currently slated to begin next year, with completion expected in 2019.
Eight-Story, 32-Unit Mixed-Use Building Wraps Up Construction At 1770 Madison Avenue, East Harlem
In April of 2014, YIMBY revealed renderings of the eight-story, 32-unit mixed-use project at 1770 Madison Avenue, in East Harlem on the corner of East 116th Street. Later the same year, the building topped out, and today the structure is fully clad and wrapping up construction, Harlem+Bespoke reports. The building measures 47,857 square feet in its entirety, and includes 5,124 square feet of retail on the ground and cellar levels, 6,310 square feet of medial offices on the second floor, and 25,241 square feet of residential space. The units will average 789 square feet apiece, and seven of them will rent at below-market rates through the housing lottery. Low Income Marketing Group is developing and Avinash K. Malhotra Architects is the architect of record. Opening is probable within the next few weeks.
Hudson Files for Brooklyn Heights Library Redevelopment, 1 Clinton Street
11:25 am on January 21, 2016 By Rebecca Baird-Remba
Last month, the City Council greenlighted the controversial plan to sell and redevelop the Brooklyn Heights Library into condos and a new library. Now the project has moved one step closer to reality, because Hudson Companies has filed building applications for a 36-story tower at 1 Clinton Street.
ULURP Kicks Off For 23-Story, 335-Unit Mixed-Use Building At 2 Sherman Avenue, Washington Heights
The Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP) has officially kicked off for the proposed 23-story, 335-unit mixed-use building at 2 Sherman Avenue, in the Fort George section of Washington Heights, located four blocks from stops on either the A or 1 trains. The project, developed by Washington Square Partners and Acadia Realty Trust, will include retail space and a community facility. According to Politico New York, the project will be the first to utilize Mayor Bill de Blasio's Mandatory Inclusionary Housing program, which requires developers to rent 30 percent of the residential units at below-market rates in exchange for a rezoning. The mayor's program is expected to be voted on over the next few months. If the program is not established, the developers will go ahead with the city's current system, which would require 20 percent of the units to be affordable. An existing two-story commercial building must first be demolished.
Permits Filed: 35-20 146th Street, Murray Hill
YIMBY can barely keep up with all the new development happening in Flushing and its nearby suburbs, which are quickly expanding with new East and South Asian immigrants. Yesterday, we spotted plans for a six-story, mixed-use building at 35-20 146th Street, in Murray Hill, just east of Flushing.
Three-Story, Three-Unit Mixed-Use Building Coming To 563 66th Street, Bay Ridge
Property owner Zhao Min Lin has filed applications for a three-story, three-unit mixed-use building at 563 66th Street, in norther Bay Ridge, located five blocks from the Bay Ridge Avenue stop on the R train. The project will measure 6,924 square feet in total, and 4,116 square feet will be used for residential space. A children's day care will operate in the basement and three full-floor units will be stacked above, averaging a spacious 1,372 square feet apiece. Jianxiong Wang's Chinatown-based JW Engineering Consulting is the applicant of record. An existing two-story house must first be demolished.
Reveal For Seven-Story, 23-Unit Mixed-Use Building At 109-15 72nd Road, Forest Hills
Almost a year ago, YIMBY reported on applications for a seven-story, 23-unit mixed-use building at 109-15 72nd Road, in Forest Hills, and now DNAinfo has a rendering of the project. The building will measure 36,248 square feet in its entirety, with 22,192 square feet designated for residential space and 5,033 square feet for ground-floor retail. The apartment units will come in one-, two-, and three-bedroom configurations and will average 965 square feet apiece. Chuan Shu Wang is the developer and Flushing-based Tan Architect is designing the project. The existing 2.5-story building has been demolished and completion is expected later this year.

Alignment: A Necessary Guideline, Or A Dated System? The Pros And Cons Of Alignment In D&D 5E
Sep 21, 2020	 Gaming, SOCIAL
A morality system has existed in some way, shape, or fashion since Dungeons and Dragons' creation back in the 70's. Back then, there were only 3 alignments: Lawful, Chaotic, and Neutral. Lawful represented honor and order, chaotic represented freedom and individuality, and neutral strove for a balance between the two. As the years went on, a second morality axis was introduced, this time between Good and Evil.
With these two axes, players could choose between 9 alignments: Lawful Good, Lawful Neutral, Lawful Evil, Neutral Good, True Neutral, Neutral Evil, Chaotic Good, Chaotic Neutral, and Chaotic Evil. A tenth axis also exists for creatures lacking the intelligence to be defined by the others, called Unaligned.
Now, people within the multiverse could be from both of the axis. Tyrants became Lawful Evil, Robin Hoods became Chaotic Good, and suddenly a new world of character creation and customization opened up. With this system, players were encouraged to create more diverse and three-dimensional characters.
When Fifth Edition came out in 2014, it streamlined Dungeons and Dragons in a way that helped thousands of new players become familiar with a previously rules-heavy system. Part of the reason D&D has become so popular over the last decade is because of this accessibility.
However, when the new edition came out, an old remainder stayed over from the older systems: alignment. Alignment has always been and remains to be one of the more hotly-contested subjects in D&D. Many old-fashioned DMs will argue that alignment is still a necessary feature, but is that really the case?
Many people actually seem to think not. After all, real people are a lot more complex than what two words can describe, and that goes for D&D characters as well. Most people make a variety of complex moral decisions on any given day. Choosing the same way for everything can make a character boring.
On top of that, an alignment system tends to make people feel like they have to rigidly stick to their alignment, no matter the situation. This can lead to tough situations or even a loss of interest in a two-dimensional character. Even worse, many players get alignments completely wrong, leading to people being labeled as terms such as Chaotic Stupid.
Still, many people really do believe that they're necessary.
Alignment systems do have their perks, after all. New players often use the alignment system as a branching-off point for potential character ideas. Many new players also need a bit of structure when first starting off in order to get comfortable with the system and with roleplaying in general.
So are alignment systems necessary? Well that's up to the community. One thing is for certain, D&D is an ever-changing system with something to offer everyone.

All Cities and Towns May Already be in "Critical Status"
March 19, 2012 /0 Comments/in Blog, Pension Reform, Recent Posts /by RI Center for Freedom
COMMENTARY: by Mike Stenhouse and Rich Danker
The centerpiece of the governor's proposed legislation to let municipalities' independent pension plans suspend annual cost of living adjustments (COLA's), includes a '60% critical status' test that may be irrelevant. While we support the concept of providing "tools" to Rhode Island municipalities, the distinction of which localities are in crisis – and which are not – may be an unnecessary exercise.
According to a study published last November by Eileen Norcross, senior research fellow with the Mercatus Center at George Mason University and a member of the Rhode Island Center for Freedom and Prosperity's national pension task force, the true scope of the unfunded liabilities belonging to the 36 Rhode Island cities with their own pension plans is $6 billion rather than the reported $2.4 billion, if the more accurate "market value" or private-sector rate is utilized instead of the the less accurate "assumed" rate, commonly used by most government entities.
Utilizing private-sector valuation rates, the pension liability for EVERY locality in Rhode Island is funded below 60%, according to the Mercatus report. We question, therefore, why there should even be a "critical status" test in the legislation.
The table below, from the Mercatus Report, shows how the true scope of the unfunded liabilities, along with the related funding ratios, are dramatically altered depending on which rate is used. (for each city – compare column 5 with column 8; and compare column 4 with column 7)
How municipalities account for their pension liabilities is of significant importance. We all remember the public outrage when Enron and other corporations were exposed for conducting fraudulent accounting practices … and rightly so. But why should we be any less concerned about accounting malpractice when it comes to our public pensions?
Using a valuation rate that is more in-line with the private-sector, all municipalities in the Ocean State should be provided with the tools the Governor proposes, and we should spare ourselves the drama of picking and choosing qualifying and non-qualifying localities.
Rich Danker is the project director for economics at American Principles Project in Washington, D.C . Mike Stenhouse is the CEO for the Rhode Center for Freedom and Prosperity. Both are members of the Center's national task force for pension reform in Rhode Island.

With all Gov. Kate Brown's years in power, all the billions spent, all the supposed advantage of her leadership, look where Oregon is. Its education system, its foster care and its public debt are dazzling disappointments.
Don't let Brown have another four years. Vote instead for Knute Buehler.
Are you happy with the state's education system?
There are so many disappointing metrics. For one, Oregon has a deplorable high school graduation rate. Nearly a quarter of the state's students don't graduate from high school, giving the state the third worst graduation rate in the country. And the uncomfortable fact is Oregon gets that performance despite spending more on average per pupil than most other states.
Brown says she is going to bring back the 180-day school year. Why didn't she do that already? What was she waiting for? Buehler would use the governor's power of executive order to make it happen.
Brown made it harder for parents to hold schools accountable by making it easy to opt-out of testing. Buehler wants to get rid of that law and allow more flexibility for school districts to use the nationwide tests they want.
Are you happy with the state's foster care system?
The state is failing to protect its most vulnerable children. It has paid out millions in settlements for state wrongdoing because of abuse and neglect.
In 2015, Gov. Brown appeared before a Senate committee and vowed to take action to correct recurring problems. She pointed to her own experience working as an attorney in the foster care system.
But she hasn't gotten the job done. A state audit this year found Brown's Department of Human Services has been "slow, indecisive and inadequate" in fixing those same persistent problems.
Buehler came out after the audit and called on the state to come up with $50 million to pay for as many as 270 new child care workers to correct one of the issues identified in the audit — a staffing shortage. A few weeks later, Brown proposed $14.5 million.
Are you happy about the state's jaw-dropping public debt?
There's $22 billion in money the state does not have for the Public Employees Retirement System. That comes to about $15,000 per Oregon household. You don't pay it directly. But you feel it. It comes out of the budgets of schools, local governments and the state. They are going to be scrambling with 38 percent increases in what they are paying into the system to keep it afloat. It means schools are in a classroom funding crisis. Cities may have to pave fewer roads. Law enforcement may have to put fewer police on the street.
Return Brown to office and she'll give the issue the same lip service she has in the past. She hasn't done enough.
As governor, Buehler vows not to sign any spending bills until PERS reform comes to his desk. He is going to make sure beneficiaries get good benefits. But he wants a cap on maximum PERS benefits so Oregonians aren't making crazy payments such as $74,000 a month. And he wants to move future beneficiaries to something like a 401(k) with an employer and employee contribution.
Building on her chronic failure, Brown and her Democratic colleagues have proposed hundreds of millions in new carbon taxes on Oregonians. The state will decide how to spend the money on Democratic pet constituencies. It's as if Brown doesn't think Oregonians will remember how state bureaucrats failed so fantastically before with tax dollars spent in the state's energy tax credit program. That got so out of control legislators had to put the brakes on it.
Buehler's proposal is, at least, more sensible. He would make any such new carbon tax revenue neutral, so it wouldn't just be another tax grab. If the state is going to bring in more dollars by taxing carbon, he wants a corresponding reduction in other state taxes and fees.
Buehler and Brown agree on many broad issues. They are both pro-choice and say they will keep the state that way. Both candidates have plans to increase spending on education and create good jobs. Both vow to protect Oregon's clean water and air.
Independent Party candidate Patrick Starnes is also a serious candidate. But his effort is more about a fight for campaign finance reform than running to be governor.
Under Brown, Oregon has diminished. It is troubling and embarrassing that Oregon's graduation rate is as low as it is. It is tragic that the state does such a poor job of caring for its most vulnerable children. And the state's pension obligations create a fiscal mess for schools and other governments. No political sweet talk can make that sound right. No plan for one new tax hike after another will solve it. Buehler, a doctor from Bend, will be a new path forward. A moderate Republican, he will balance the Legislature's Democratic tilt.
He doesn't see businesses as only something to be taxed. He will bring new ideas to the table such as the ground-breaking bill he championed as a representative in the Legislature to allow pharmacies to issue on-demand birth control. He will broker deals with Democrats to create a state government Oregonians can be proud of and one they can afford.

Malaysian authorities have filed criminal charges against American investment bank Goldman Sachs and its two former bankers over involvement in the 1MDB Malaysian state fund scandal.
The ex-Goldman Sachs bankers facing criminal charges for the scandal are Tim Leissner and Roger Ng Chong Hwa. Hwa was the bank's managing director, while Leissner served as the chairman for Southeast Asia.
The bankers have been accused of working on three bond offerings that fetched around $6.5bn for the fund.
Malaysia attorney general Tommy Thomas said that the bankers secured a portion of the misappropriated bond proceeds, along with large bonuses and improved career prospects.
"The charges arise from the commission and abetment of false or misleading statements by all the accused in order to dishonestly misappropriate USD2.7bil (RM11.3bil) from the proceeds of three bonds issued by subsidiaries of 1MDB, which were arranged and underwritten by Goldman Sachs," Thomas stated.
Alongside Leissner and Hwa, criminal charges were also filed against 1MDB employee Jasmine Loo and financier Jho Low.
Leissner and Hwa allegedly conspired with Low, who is said to be the mastermind of the fraud, and Loo to bribe Malaysian government officials. The aim was to ensure Goldman Sachs' participation in the bond issuances.
Thomas said that the government looks to impose fines on the accused "well in excess" of the misappropriated bond proceeds and $600m fees secured by Goldman Sachs.
Authorities will also seek prison sentences of up to 10 years for each of the accused, Thomas said.
"Having held themselves out as the pre-eminent global adviser / arranger for bonds, the highest standards are expected of Goldman Sachs. They have fallen far short of any standard. In consequence, they have to be held accountable," Thomas noted.
Charges have also been made against Goldman Sachs International (UK), the division of the bank that arranged the three bonds. Two other Goldman units — Goldman Sachs (Singapore) Pte and Goldman Sachs (Asia) LLC — are charged with abetting Goldman Sachs International.
However, the bank refuted the charges and called them misdirected.
Last month, Abu Dhabi's International Petroleum Investment Company sued Goldman Sachs for playing a central role in the 1MDB scandal and bringing significant losses to the firm.
