Minnesota Democrat Amy Klobuchar confers with Committee Chair Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) throughout a Senate Judiciary listening to on Jan. 15, 2019.
In a Democratic caucus full of presidential hopefuls taking a tough line towards Donald Trump's presidency, the Minnesota senator's model of pragmatic politics stands out. And quite a few Republicans are raving about Klobuchar — her character, her respect for the opposite celebration, even her competitiveness in a normal election.
In actual fact, a dozen GOP senators had been so effusive in interviews this month that some frightened they may harm her candidacy in a Democratic nomination battle that has many candidates embracing the celebration's left flank.
The three-term senator is definitely no Joe Manchin. Klobuchar reliably votes along with her celebration in relation to huge points like abortion and immigration. She's embraced progressives' bold "Inexperienced New Deal" and is never a headache for Democratic management. However she's additionally established herself as somebody who can minimize offers with Republicans and infrequently tacks to the middle. It's a mix that that would give her a lift amongst main voters looking for a candidate with bipartisan bona fides if it doesn't doom her with a celebration shifting shortly to the left.
In a quick interview Klobuchar made clear that she doesn't compromise only for compromise's sake however acknowledged it's one thing she actively seeks out as a senator.
Klobuchar additionally was the Democratic presidential aspirant most intimately concerned with a centrist Senate effort final 12 months to handle the plight of tons of of 1000's of younger, undocumented immigrants. She was in a sequence of conferences supposed to forge a bipartisan immigration deal that in the end got here up quick. Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.). mentioned Klobuchar was one of many "extra cheap voices" within the room.
It's not simply on main laws the place Klobuchar collaborates with the GOP. She runs the Congressional Coalition on Adoption with Blunt and has teamed with Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.) on combating consuming problems and increasing rural broadband. She's labored with conservative Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) on bettering a bridge between their two states and pushed by laws with Tillis to assist deal with veterans uncovered to poisonous burn pits in fight zones.
Past her ideology and legislative acumen, Klobuchar gives a stylistic distinction from the sharp-edged politics of Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and the attention-grabbing inquisitions of Sens. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) and Cory Booker (D-N.J.).
Republicans say that Klobuchar was one of many Democrats on the Judiciary Committee who was most respectful when questioning Supreme Court docket Justice Brett Kavanaugh final 12 months about sexual assault allegations, whilst Klobuchar discovered herself being requested by the nominee whether or not she had a ingesting drawback. However befitting her "Minnesota good" type, Klobuchar moved on and didn't linger on the confrontation.
"Of the oldsters which might be operating, she's in all probability extra accountable," mentioned Senate Agriculture Committee Chairman Pat Roberts (R-Kan.).
Sen. Amy Klobuchar broadcasts her 2020 candidacy Feb. 10, 2019, at Increase Island Park in Minneapolis.
Klobuchar's Republican friends say that her political skills could be imposing in a normal election towards Trump, noting her sturdy attraction within the Midwest — the area that tipped the presidency to Trump in 2016.
"I don't like to present Democrats recommendation however they've bought to have the ability to carry the Midwest," Collins mentioned.
It's not simply Republican senators who're followers. George Will, a conservative columnist for the Washington Put up, penned an op-ed just lately that described Klobuchar as "the particular person maybe finest outfitted to ship the present president packing," pointing to her Midwest roots as an asset for Democrats and praising her even-keeled temperament.
Nonetheless, Klobuchar's "Minnesota good" repute has taken a success in latest days amid a number of stories she has mistreated employees.
Regardless, the very qualities which have earned Klobuchar a lot love on the proper might be liabilities in a Democratic main.
But Democrats aren't so certain. For one, many Democrats consider Klobuchar, former Vice President Joe Biden or Montana Gov. Steve Bullock may all provide a compelling distinction to the extra liberal candidates within the discipline.
"She's somebody that's extra oriented towards getting some issues accomplished. And so as to do that you simply've started working with each side. That's the arithmetic round right here," mentioned Sen. Angus King (I-Maine), who caucuses with the Democrats.
And in early states, bipartisanship won't be a unclean phrase. Whilst New Hampshire retains electing Democrats to Congress, the Granite State additionally has a preferred GOP governor — and permits undeclared voters to take part in both celebration's main.

How BJP is spreading its wings in Kashmir and Ladakh
Deepak 22:54 INDIAN NEWS,
People's Democratic Party (PDP) headquarters in the Kashmir Valley remains closed even after more than 100 days of repeal of Article 370 and Section 35A.
In the Red Chowk area of Srinagar, the door of the lowly party headquarters of poplar trees is closed between the pointed wires. Paramilitary personnel stationed there are activated by our presence. A small window in the bunker says, "Are you a journalist?"
His gun barrel is stretched in front of the road. When he ensured our identity, he said, "You shouldn't be here. Don't take a picture of the building."
However, after a little persuasion, he allowed us to create some visuals for the news story.
People's Democratic Party spokesman Tahir Saeed explains, "How can an office function when all party members are reportedly under house arrest".
On August 5, 2019, the Government of India abolished the special status of Jammu and Kashmir by repealing Article 370.
Since then, internet is closed in Kashmir while half the mobile phones are not working. Common transport and most business institutions are closed.
Peaceful protests are also not allowed on the streets, in which people can be detained, arrested and bonded for release.
After repealing Article 370, the Government of India reconstituted the State of Jammu and Kashmir and divided it into two Union Territories - Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh.
People's Democratic Party spokesman Saeed says, "Whatever is happening after August 5 is nothing short of a joke for democracy. I would call it 'Demon Crazy' instead of Democracy."
Saeed is among the few leaders who are not in custody.
Even till now, most of the leaders of the main political parties of Jammu Kashmir - National Conference, People's Democratic Party and People's Conference are either under arrest or in custody.
They are not allowed to be involved in other members of the party or in any political activity. Earlier, thousands of members of Kashmir's largest socio-religious organization Jamaate-Islami were detained.
On the other hand, in the state office of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Srinagar, it looks bright, not only are the party's officials-workers, visitors are also coming.
A fleet of vehicles is seen outside the office. When we reached the BJP office, then Jammu and Kashmir BJP General Secretary Ashok Kaul reached the office and people are waiting to meet him, most of them are party workers.
Ashok Kaul explains, "For the past few years, we were working to strengthen the party in Jammu and Kashmir. Now we are getting the support of the people. I feel it in the Srinagar Party office. Whenever here Come, Kashmiri people come to meet, they want to join the BJP and are joining the party in large numbers. "
BJP is readying its land
The BJP is trying to strengthen its base in Kashmir, while PDP spokesman Tahir Saeed says that the BJP is mocking the democratic system across the country.
Tahir Saeed says, "The BJP is looking at the interest of its party instead of the national interest. If they had cared for the country, they would neither curb any political party nor political activity. Even the main opposition party, Congress Even meeting is not allowed. It is only a joke of democracy. "
Since the 90s, neither the assembly nor the Lok Sabha has won any seat in Kashmir, but the party wants to prepare its cadres at the ground level.
BJP's Ashok Kaul explains, "In 2015, we had 2.5 lakh members in Kashmir. We started a membership drive from July 6, 2019. Then the internet was running, 46 thousand new members joined the party online. After the internet ban We have launched an offline membership campaign. Yesterday we have added the number of members, offline we have added 60 thousand members ie we have reached 3.5 lakh members in the Kashmir Valley. "
BJP's membership drive has been completed. Now BJP is busy finalizing the structure up to the booth level, BJP is going to do this work for the first time in Kashmir Valley.
Kaul explains, "3.5 lakh workers can take part in the election of the booth president. It is going to be for 5000 polling booths. After this we will elect the assembly speaker and then the district president. We try till December, 2019 Get this election done. "...
Other parties are not getting the chance to grow '
Rashida Mir is a member of the state executive of the BJP. She has been associated with the party for the last three years and she is looking forward to the future of the party in Kashmir.
Says Rashida Mir, "After the removal of Article 370, we were finding it difficult to convince people at the ground level, but when we told people how they would benefit from it, people understood."
On the question of BJP getting more space to run its campaign due to the detention of leaders of opposition political parties, Rashida Mir said, "Whoever is guilty, will always be in custody, but the truth is that we have to keep our Have an opportunity to strengthen the situation. "
On the one hand the BJP is going to finalize its party structure in the next few months, on the other hand, the opposition parties have not been able to work on their party structure after the reorganization of Jammu and Kashmir.
Three chief ministers of the state, political leaders and activists of all mainstream parties except BJP in Kashmir have been in custody since August 5.
According to Ejaz Ashraf Wani, Assistant Professor of Political Science at Kashmir University, when there is a democracy in the curb, the ruling party gets the benefit.
He explains, "It is not good for any democracy when you are not facing any political challenge. In the case of Kashmir, this is an unprecedented situation in which you are not giving a chance to the competitors in democracy, it is You can call it a controlled democracy or a controlled democracy. In such a situation the BJP will be strong. Such situation has happened in Kashmir before. Congress was doing the same thing before, now it is JP is doing. "
According to Ejaz Ashraf Wani, "BJP's strength will increase in Kashmir. All the regional political parties have historically talked about Kashmiri identity and Article 370 in their manifesto, now they will have no place left. It is also being said that The Kashmiri leaders have cheated the people. They always talked about making Article 370 fixed but it did not happen. In such a situation, if they say that we will Holes will cease to be restored to 370, so there will not affect them. "
Akbar Lone is a National Conference MP from Baramulla district of North Kashmir. They claim that no sensible person from Kashmir will join BJP and those who are claiming to join the party are making false claims.
Akbar Lone says, "The future of our party is secure. They are saying that people are joining BJP, who have joined them? Those who have joined BJP are either terrorists deployed towards the government. Or some rogue people. "
According to Akbar Lone, "In Ladakh, people are not joining any party. Cadres of National Conference and Congress are connected with their own parties. Some people have definitely joined BJP in Kargil of Peoples Democratic Party but Ladakh "The PDP party is not very strong. There is not going to be any change."
Revenge of Ladakh, Kargil also changed
Ladakh has also become a union territory. The people here got mixed reactions to the action taken by the Government of India regarding Jammu and Kashmir. Protests were held in Kargil against the decision of the Indian government, but in Kargil itself, five big leaders of the PDP have joined the BJP.
Katcho Gulzar was a member of the PDP before becoming a member of the BJP. He was the PDP president in Kargil area, he believes that everything has changed in Ladakh after the formation of two union territories.
He says, "The PDP has lost its base in Kargil. Ladakh is the new union territory. Political parties which are Kashmir-centric cannot have a presence in Ladakh."
Katcho Gulzar says, "We were also against dividing Jammu and Kashmir into two parts. But this was done in Ladakh or Kashmir without any advice. We had no option but to join BJP. Even if the PDP leaders are not in custody, the party in Ladakh seems to be ending. "
"The PDP in Kargil has been completely out of place since 5 August, while the BJP is steadily strengthening," says Kargil journalist Muttaraja Fazli.
According to Fazli, "In the recent BDC elections, two candidates contesting on BJP ticket won while two independents are also supporting them. It is a good performance if we consider the last few elections as the basis. Article 370 The repeal has also proved to be a strategic moment for the BJP, as PDP leaders like Haji Inayat Ali have since joined the BJP. The political Fiza is gradually changing though has changed in Leh. "
Along with Kashmir, Kashmiri politics is also going through a decisive phase, this is a period from which no one can accurately describe the future of Kashmir.

Q: C++ Inheritance - QList I have a class, Car, that inherits a QList< int >. I am wondering how would I use the QList I just inherited?
From my amateur understanding of how to use inheritance, if Car inherits Vehicle, I would access a method of Vehicle by going Vehicle::getWheels(). How would this work if I inherit QList though?

A: If your Car inherits from Vehicle you can simply use the inherited methods (in case you have not overwritten those). Example:
class Vehicle
{
    int wheels_;

    public:
        Vehicle(int wheels=4)
        : wheels_(wheels)
        {
        }

        int getWheels() const { return wheels_; }
};

class Car: public Vehicle
{
};

Car myCar;
myCar.getWheels();

So for your question, you can simply use the members of QList< int > without being explicit if your class was decleared as class Car : public QList< int > { ... };.

A Thomas Annan photograph of a portrait of John Bell (d 1641) who was the first Presbyterian Minister of the Tron Kirk in 1592. The original artist is unknown.
The painting (a copy of which appears on this website) appeared in an 1868 exhibition of portraits in the new Glasgow Gallery of Art on Sauchiehall Street. Annan was commissioned by the Town Council to photograph all of the 462 paintings and busts in the show and bring them together in an illustrated catalogue.
The gallery at 270 Sauchiehall Street was built by Archibald McLellan in the early 1850s and acquired by the Corporation following his death in 1854.

Hello there! I'm new here to the series and I love it but.. I like the old version the most, is possible to get that version and still play online (marathon infinity)?
The Infinity download from the Aleph One site contains basically the unmodified original Infinity, if you play with the classic renderer option and any graphical enhancements turned off.

From the title screen: Preferences -> Environment -> Plugins -> disable everything but the Infinity theme by clicking on everything 'Enabled' until they aren't.
Seriously, dude. On one hand, I'm glad the way it works allowed the AGENT ORANGE theme to be automatically enabled for Yuge, but seriously, why is this kind of stuff enabled by default?
It's a long story, that even involved Bungie.
I agree, what you get should be stock textures, software renderer.
Bungie is ruining alephone more than you are. You need to step your game up.

Keith Jackson's decades in game didn't spawn much cardboard
January 13, 2018 January 13, 2018 BlowoutBuzzLeave a comment
One of the most-memorable voices in college football — if not all of broadcasting — has gone silent as Keith Jackson has died. He was 89.
His career started in the 1950s and he continued working until the mid-2000s with his "Whoa, Nellie!" catch-phrase heard countless times calling 15 Rose Bowls and plenty more during a stretch for ABC that began broadcasting college games in 1966. Jackson also called World Series games, Olympic events and worked on the Monday Night Football broadcast team.
And that's where his perhaps only standard football card comes into play.

Will "O.J.: Made in America" spark new interest in O.J. Simpson cards?
June 11, 2016 June 11, 2016 BlowoutBuzz1 Comment
There's no doubt that even after years out of the spotlight that O.J. Simpson remains one of the more-controversial and polarizing people on the planet, and we'll get a new wave of discussion about the retired and incarcerated football star with the premiere of O.J.: Made in America, which is a five-part ESPN Films documentary, tonight on ABC.
Simpson, of course, is behind bars for armed robbery and kidnapping after an altercation with a memorabilia dealer back in 2007. His acquittal in the deaths of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman — and the 1997 civil suit found Simpson liable for their deaths — will be one of the main focuses of the nearly eight-hour series.
Will the new story spark any added interest in his key cards? It's very possible and people are seemingly already interested to some degree. His 1970 Topps Rookie Card (above) actually surged in value back during the first trial and there were non-NFL-licensed card companies that actually had him sign autographs while in jail. According to one advance account of the new documentary, those autographs signed in jail are discussed in the series.
"O.J. had only been in jail for two or three days when, per his agent Mike Gilbert, he gave instructions to start 'marketing and merchandising and generating a lot of money,'" reads one advance review. "Gilbert and memorabilia dealer Bruce Fromong brought in fabric numbers for O.J. to sign, which would later be sewn into jerseys, and leather panels that would eventually become footballs. Demand, says Fromong, was through the roof, and as photographs reveal, an O.J. autograph signed from behind bars could go for hundreds of dollars.
"'He sat in jail,' says Fromong, 'and we did $3-million dollars in autographs.' One photograph of O.J. and Johnnie Cochran got both their signatures. 'I look back,' says Gilbert, 'and think, this sucked. I can't believe we did this.'"

Decision 2016 trading cards have look of landmark release
April 13, 2016 BlowoutBuzz2 Comments
Politicians have appeared on cardboard since the earliest years of trading cards — you know, in packs of cigarettes back in the 1800s — and they've appeared in countless non-sports, war and even sports sets of the last 30-plus years as collecting emerged upon the national psyche and flourished as part of the pop culture landscape.
But the new Decision 2016 trading cards arriving this week include something that we haven't yet seen in a political release — the chance at autographs and more advanced "hit" cards along with a healthy amount of traditional cardboard.
In the midst of one of the most-tumultous political seasons in years, this is a product that offers a promising start for a perhaps-expanding trading card genre of its own — and the potential for something more.
It already appears to be a landmark release, but don't just take Buzz's word for it.
"The idea of a set that captures that drama of an election – that is compelling," said Rick Klein, who is ABC News' Political Director and also a long-time baseball card collector. "I feel like it's something that could start as a novelty project but catch on. You'd be surprised by how many political junkies are also collectors. People love pins, hats, signs. I've seen autograph-seekers at obscure conferences for senators most people could never name."

Will "Catching Kelce" turn into collecting Kelce? Perhaps …
Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce will be the star of a reality TV show that revolves around his dating life — and, believe it or not, there's a shot that it could spark added interest in his football cards.
E! Entertainment announced this week that it has eight episodes of Catching Kelce coming soon and in a story to deadline.com an E! executive described why the player was chosen.
"On top of being a well-respected athlete, Travis has a fun-loving, over the top personality that draws people to him," E! executive vice president Jeff Olde said. "We are excited to give our viewers an up-close look at his search for love."
So, why might this mean something for his football cards?

The Ethereum scambots have actually been running widespread on Twitter as well as various other social networks systems. The microblogging website, Twitter, particularly appears to be abounding these crypto Ponzi systems. Previously this month, Washington Article reported that the microblogging website had actually removed over 70 million phony accounts. However it does not look like the Twitter cleanup has actually assisted manage the circumstance!
The Twitter-sphere is still tormented by these ETH scambots making believe to be stars from the crypto knowledgeable. Just recently, the Chief Executive Officer of Tesla, Elon Musk tweeted concerning these Twitter scambots, which provoked a reaction from the Ethereum owner. Vitalik Buterin, in reaction to Elon Musk's tweet, interested the owner of Twitter to assist deal with these scambots.
These bogus accounts marketing cryptocurrency free gifts have actually made their proprietors millionaires. Each time somebody well-known in the sector messages on Twitter, these defrauders message remarks right under it. These lookalike fraudsters promote Ethereum "free gifts" or "airdrops." And also exactly what's even worse is that it's truly hard to distinguish these fraudsters due to the fact that they have the exact same names as well as account images as the crypto stars and also firms.
Keep in mind that the scambot makes use of the logo design of Binance in its account image. However just what provides it away is the twitter deal with, Binance's authorities take care of is @binance. Binance had actually released a sharp in February that fraudsters are posing the main Binance accounts. In an additional circumstances, a Twitter individual talked about Charlie Lee's article specifying that he shed 210EUR. It appears the customer ended up being a sufferer of one more of these scambots.
So though these rip-offs are fairly evident, they have actually taken care of to rip off a number of crypto capitalists. As well as these impostors have actually made away with Ethereum worth numerous bucks with their pump as well as unload systems.
Yet, exactly what's the service?
So the concern that stays is, "Just what's the option to these scambots?" While crypto individuals have to remain sharp as well as steer clear of from these frauds, there has to be a sensible remedy. In his respond to Elon Musk, Vitalik Buterin likewise asked for the Ethereum neighborhood to create a service. He recommends that they utilize layer 2 filtering system to remove the frauds.
See Likewise: Current deal spam on the Ethereum network set you back approximately $15 million: Vitalik Buterin.
Inning Accordance With Crypto New Media, numerous programmers are working with cryptographic options to extract these crypto fraudsters. However the crypto knowledgeable requires an option quickly, as also the restriction hammer does not appear to be functioning. The Ethereum scambots are an instance due to the fact that they're still to life as well as well taking into consideration 70 million phony accounts were erased. Today, despite having numerous of them obtaining the axe, these crypto fraudsters are mushrooming like Hydra!

Hundreds of hostages rescued from terrorist group Boko Haram
Emily Waller, Editor-in-Chief|May 5, 2015
Last Tuesday almost 300 women and girls were rescued by Nigeria's military, and progress continues today after more than 150 additional hostages were freed by Nigerian troops. This marks an enormous success against the militant Islamic terror organization, which has killed thousands of civilians in northeastern Nigeria.
"Change is happening in Nigeria, and change is good," said Mr. Klokkenga, who teaches International Relations and other civics classes at West. He discussed that such development could be the result of the recent presidential election, in which former president Goodluck Jonathan lost the race to Mahammadu Buhari, a retired general of the military.
Buhari promised the people of Nigeria that he would not allow Boko Haram to run rampant through Nigeria, and he would take control to stop their terrorist movements. According to Emma Nippe (11), "This is a very good sign. I think if Buhari managed to start taking action, Boko Haram will have to start being more cautious."
Her ideas were echoed by other students happy to see change. "I think it's great that they're finally doing something," said Emily Schreieder (12). Senior Ash Reynolds agrees: "I'm glad that these girls were rescued. I hope that soon the girls kidnapped from Chibak are rescued soon, too."
This success is a good step towards change, said Will Teichman (12,) "but it's not enough. The military needs to cut off potential recruits to reduce the terrorist groups' number."
This fortunate turn of events is hopefully the start of a long chain of successes, and Nigeria and the international community all agree that progress is not just necessary- it's vital.

Q: What does @format mean in new react native App.js? I started to create an Application in react native so, i setup the react native environment and found the @format in the App.js file when i open this file first time. Please can anyone tell what is @format and why it is in the new App.js file in react native?

A: Refer to the @Noitidart's link in comment, the @format is part of pragma and another pragma is @prettier. Prettier will only format those files with pragma when option of Require pragma is enabled. Thanks @Noitidart for the link.

I found this after I check the blame of App.js file in react native repo.
Prettier RN local-cli
And I found this description in RN 0.48.4 features
Enforce Prettier for @format (1023070) - @TheSavior

As conclusion, the @format tag is used to tell the prettier tool to run on that file and so that it's format becomes prettier.

A: The demo code created with npx react-native init YourNameProject (found in this guide) generates this annotation.
The Prettier's documentation says the annotation @format is related to Pragma.

Prettier can restrict itself to only format files that contain a special comment, called a pragma, at the top of the file. This is very useful when gradually transitioning large, unformatted codebases to Prettier.

Prettier can insert a special @format marker at the top of files specifying that the file has been formatted with Prettier.

A:
Its called decorators. It's just a function that takes as an argument what it decorates:

@myFunction
class MyClass { }
is equivalent to:
class MyClass { }
myFunction(MyClass)
Using decorators allows us to extend a function (class or property) by wrapping a function (decorator) around it. This can be useful for making properties read-only or suppressing warnings from a function.

There are many birds that are most gorgeous during the breeding season. At this time of the year, these creatures will put on a stunning coat that looks different from the daily suit.
The golden-winged sunbird is one of these striking birds. Most of the time, this bird is covered with black. But this sheen turns shining metallic reddish-copper when the breeding season begins. The brilliant gold plumage becomes a distinctive feature of male birds, helping them attract females.
Comparing with the male, the female is duller with an olive color on their upperparts and yellowish below. Young birds look similar to the female, though they have darker bellies.
The golden-winged sunbird is a member of the Nectariniidae family. They are a nomadic species whose habitats depend on the food supply.
This sunbird can be found in forest verges and clearings, cultivated areas, bamboo forest, and tall grassland in the Congo, Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda.
They feed on nectar, especially from the mint Leonotis nepetifolia flowers. However, these birds also eat nectar from other flowers and eat insects, such as beetles, flies, ants, and wasps, and larvae.
During the breeding season, female golden-winged sunbirds build purse-like nests on their own. They then lay eggs in the nest and incubate them. The male joins the female in feeding the hatchlings until they are fully fledged.
You can watch the video of this bird below!

Ejector Technology: New Emergency Bilging System for Disabled Vessels
Körting Hannover AG places its emphasis for shipbuilding worldwide on technical competence and flexibility. Amongst other things, this is shown in the high-performance bilging system manufactured specially for the new work boat "Saatsee".
On September 26th, 2012 the Wasser- und Schifffahrtsamt (Water and Shipping Authority) in Kiel-Holtenau (Germany) started operations with the new construction vessel for the Kiel Ship Canal (NOK): The "Saatsee" was built at the shipyard of Fr. Fassmer GmbH & Co. KG located in Berne/Motzen on the river Weser and has been equipped with all necessary components. "Apart from the Körting bilge ejectors for its own ship operating technology, this ship disposes over an emergency bilging system for disabled vessels developed by us", explained Berthold Kulp, Shipbuilding Sales Manager of Körting Hannover AG. He developed the bilging system with which the high-pressure pumping performance of the ship's own monitoring system within a FFP (Liquid Jet Liquid Ejector) is converted to a large volumetric suction performance which enables an increased suction performance by1- to up to approx. 5-fold. "This bilging system consists of two ejectors", explained Berthold Kulp. These GL-certified ejectors (Körting DN 200-TD 15270) have been securely installed below the floor of the engine room and supply a rated output totalling 400 m3/h at a suction pressure of 0,4 bar abs. The suction hosepipes necessary for bilging are stored on board and, when needed, can be connected optionally to four connections located on the work deck.
L-type ejector of Körting Hannover AG
On handing over to the final customer the system was subjected to a performance test and was then transferred without any problems being detected. The Fr. Fassmer GmbH & Co. KG shipyard expressed their great satisfaction on the collaboration and the results of Körting Hannover AG: "Due to the many years of collaboration and the consistent positive experiences which we have gained with Körting Hannover AG" as Bernhard Lottmann, Manager of the Engineering Division belonging to the Fr. Fassmer GmbH & Co. KG shipyard "it was clear to us immediately that they would develop this bilging system for us." The shipyard was most enthusiastic about the delivery and particularly about the project-accompanying technical support as offered by M/s. Körting Hannover AG.
The designing of these special water jet ejectors is carried out according to individual criteria. This applies to manufacturing materials and the construction just as well as regarding the performance data to be executed.
The important technical performance requirements here are the ratings of the existing mechanical monitoring pumps. Suction flows of ≥ 2.000 m³/h can be realised.

Excellent innovation work: PreciPoint receives TOP 100 seal of approval
Katharina Eser
Business Innovation Manager
In terms of corporate management and innovation, PreciPoint is at the top. PreciPoint convinced in the TOP 100 competition as a think tank and was awarded the TOP 100 seal 2022. Only particularly innovative medium-sized companies are awarded this distinction. PreciPoint entered the innovation competition TOP 100 2022 for the first time and was able to convince right from the start. A total of 436 medium-sized companies applied.
TOP 100 is a team effort
"We won this award because we have a great team working together to make surgical and clinical cancer diagnostics more effective and efficient," says Dominik Gerber, Managing Director of PreciPoint. Together with Nicolas Weiss, he heads the company, which has been headquartered in Freising since 2009. "Our contribution is the digitalisation of microscopy and laboratory workflows. Because where you live shouldn't determine whether you live," says Weiss. Pathology is currently in a transition phase towards digitisation: "But it is not enough to buy equipment that digitises samples. To make pathology fit for the future, everyone involved in the process must be involved and new technologies must be established in the work processes." At the moment, PreciPoint is developing its first medical device, which should receive approval this year: the iO:M8 – ROSE. The microscope can be used specifically for intraoperative consultations. It enables simple and fast collaborative work among medical professionals and facilitates obtaining a second opinion.
Representing all employees, Dominik Gerber, Michael Sysoev, Katharina Eser, Christian Nauck, Moritz Diez, Anne-France Carter and Nicolas Weiss are pleased with the Top100 award (from left).
Winning the scientific selection process
To receive a TOP 100 seal, a company must go through a scientific selection process. On behalf of compamedia, the organiser of the comparison, innovation researcher Prof. Dr. Nikolaus Franke and his team examined PreciPoint in more than 100 innovation indicators from five categories: Top Management Promoting Innovation, Innovation Climate, Innovative Processes and Organisation, External Orientation/Open Innovation and Innovation Success. In principle, the TOP 100 analysis is about the question of whether a company's innovations are just a product of chance or are systematically planned and thus repeatable in the future. Special weighting is given to the question of whether and how innovations and product improvements succeed on the market.
TOP 100: the competition
Since 1993, compamedia has been awarding the TOP 100 seal of approval for special innovative strength and above-average innovation success to medium-sized companies. Since 2002, the scientific management has been in the hands of Prof. Dr. Nikolaus Franke. Franke is the founder and director of the Institute for Entrepreneurship and Innovation at the Vienna University of Economics and Business. With 25 research awards and over 200 publications, he is one of the leading innovation researchers internationally. The mentor of TOP 100 is the science journalist Ranga Yogeshwar. Project partners are the Fraunhofer Society for the Promotion of Applied Research and the BVMW association of medium-sized businesses. The magazines manager magazin and impulse accompany the company comparison as media partners. More information and registration at www.top100.de.

Todays Board meeting was moved up a week due to the PCS workshop being held next Monday February 29, 2016… All Board members except Glenda Honeycutt was present.
Today the Board had 14 visitors!!!!! Yayyy!!
The Board gave their approval for Ms. Reba Roy's Education Plus Seminar to be held May 1st & 2nd at Pearl River Resort in Philadelphia….
The Board gave approval to Ms. Kathy Tollison for the Mississippi Cosmetology School Association's upcoming workshop for June 5th & 6th in Tupelo…..
It was made official at today's Board meeting that Kathy Tollison has purchased Vaughn's Beauty College in Aberdeen. The Board waived the initial inspection and told Kathy to contact Mr. David Derrick when she was ready to schedule her final inspection… Vaughn's Beauty College opened in 1956!!! Congrats Kathy!!!!
FYI……….. PCS sent notice to the Board that NIC has made changes to its written and practical exams.. HERE WE GO AGAIN!!!!! The changes were provided to the Board along with a request for a date that they could implement the new changes… The Board agreed to tell PCS they would not consider any changes until after 12/31/2016… Remember, PCS's contract ends 12/31/2016!!!!!
I need everyone to do something for our Industry…. Google Professional Beauty Association… I myself have never heard of them, but plan on getting to know them…. So check them out….. Be sure that you click on the top tab that states "Advocacy" then scroll down the page and click on "State Captains" BIG SUPRISE!!!!! Figure that one out!!!! She is like a piece of gum on the bottom of your shoe!!!!!
More like a cow patty! Karma definitely has her work cut out for her on this one!
From what I read, I'm assuming that the problem with our Postsecondary Eligibility will be settled very soon? Is there anything else we can do to expedite it? Our Title IV Eligibility expires next month and I have applied for eligibility for a new program so need to know that this will not be another holdup from our previous "reign of terror"…..our prior Board. I, like many others, assumed that this simple task had been taken care of years ago. What a nightmare and, even worse, that their ignorance continues to haunt as all months after their overdue demise.
I looked up the State Captain for Mississippi on the Professional Beauty Association website….it's much worse than a piece of gum on our shoe…..much more like dung. After causing so much damage to our industry with ignorance and arrogance, I would be extremely embarassed to even show my face in anything association related to it. But, ignorance is bliss they say……I just pray that she doesn't cause any more turmoil that reflects and/or effects us all.
If it looks and quakes like a duck, it must be a duck.

Adverse weather conditions, design delays, change order requests, and a federal government shutdown allegedly delayed the project. Despite the County's program manager listing more than 30 change orders in the project's change order evaluation log, the County never issued any written change orders, including any change orders extending the contract time to account for the delays. The County also withheld payment from SOCO.
SOCO sued the County for breach of contract and bad faith performance of contract, and it sought attorney fees and injunctive relief.
The parties filed cross-motions for summary judgment on all claims. The County based its motion on the grounds that sovereign immunity barred any claims arising from unwritten change orders. The trial court denied the County's motion for summary judgment. The trial court ultimately granted SOCO summary judgment on all claims based, in part, upon Requests for Admissions to which the County had failed to timely respond, and awarded SOCO attorney fees.
The County appealed the trial court's decision to the Court of Appeals of Georgia (Fourth Division). The Court of Appeals reversed the trial court's summary judgment rulings and vacated and remanded the trial court's ruling on attorney fees.
The Court of Appeals held that the County did not waive its sovereign immunity for claims arising from unwritten contract modifications. The Court noted that "the doctrine of sovereign immunity has constitutional status and may be waived only by an act of the [Georgia] General Assembly or by the constitution itself." The Court agreed with the County's argument that although it had a written contract with SOCO, it did not waive its sovereign immunity defense for claims arising from unwritten contract modifications, which did not follow the County's procedure.
The Court specifically disagreed with the trial court's finding that the parties complied with the County's protocol. The trial court had found that an exception to the protocol applied because "extraordinary circumstances" existed, which caused the County administrators to order the changed work to avoid delay. The Court of Appeals noted a lack of evidence to support that conclusion.
The Court also disagreed with SOCO's argument that the County had waived its sovereign immunity based upon the fact that the County had requested changes to the work, the parties' conduct, and certain facts which were deemed admitted. While acknowledging the harsh result, the Court held that "parties are presumed to know the law, and are required 'at their peril' to ascertain the authority of a public officer with whom they are dealing." The appeals court refused to create an exception to the rules regarding waiver of sovereign immunity based upon any reliance SOCO may have placed upon the County's actions or the facts deemed admitted. As a result, the Court dismissed all of SOCO's claims arising from unwritten contract modifications.

Hello, there. My name is Kirti Vardhan Rathore and I am a Masters student in Computer Science at Dartmouth College.
I enjoy discussing about *nix systems, design patterns, security, Tolkien, education and Full metal alchemist.
BinderFilter is a Linux kernel message firewall for Android. Instrumented the kernel to achieve full mediation on all messages passed. Provided tools to visualize IPC on Wireshark or as nice granular graphs.
Me and another student set out to implement a VPN from the scratch. We created a TUN interface based virtual network and remote machines could ssh into each other if they were on the same network. The VPN server was hosted on a raspberry pi.
Audio fingerprinting to find how similiar two songs are. An interesting use case was the Led Zeppelin v/s Tarus plagiarism lawsuit. I used a parallelizable FFT based fingerprinting algorithm based on Shazam's paper, with some significant modifications. The fun part was running the FFT based algorithm on our CS cluster at Dartmouth. The results have been encouraging.

As part of GL33k, we were responsible for all sound and implementation of the player character, the main enemies and bosses, and all of the overworld levels. I coordinated directly with Microsoft and other teams around the world to help make sure everything went in and sounded great. Unfortunately, I had a death in the family at the end of this project, so I missed getting to fly out to Redmond to help mix, but that's the way the cookie crumbles...
This was the first project I worked on after moving back to Austin. As a part of GL33k, I worked onsite at Certain Affinity to implement all of the environment sounds for the Halo 2 multiplayer maps, with some sweet design help from Bobby Arlauskas. Additionally, I implemented all weapon and vehicle sounds that were delivered from Microsoft.
Role: Sound design
I was on this project briefly, as a member of GL33k, but I got to do a bunch of fun trap and creature sounds.
I moved to California for a few years during this project, so I wasn't on it for very long, but as part of GL33k, I got to work onsite at Retro on some creatures and levels before making the big move.
As GL33k, we worked on the Wii version of this project. We handled all design, implementation and music integration. I got to design some really cool and intricate sequences in Wwise for the Casino level. It was probably more complicated than it needed to be, but hey, it was a long time ago in a galaxy not so far away. ;-)
This project is near and dear to me because, well it's Ghostbusters! Also though, this was my first game using Wwise, and this is one of the two projects that got GL33k to move to Austin!!! We worked on the Wii sku and had a blast!
Mushroom Men
This was such a fun project to work on! Red Fly gave us complete creative freedom to get weird and do some really fun stuff. I even got to lend my sweet, sweet whistling chops to the main melody! :-)
Metroid Prime 3
This was one of the first big games I got to work on, and I only got to work on it briefly, toward the end of the project. I did mostly environmental and puzzle sounds, but I get to say I worked on Metroid!!!

Video: Nerves Junior "Goodnight Nobody"
Louisville's Nerves Junior released one of my favorite LPs of 2011 with their debut As Bright As Your Night Light. Much has changed for the experimental, post-rock project since that record dropped. Specifically, the band parted ways with lead singer Cory Wayne and guitarist Stuart Phelps. As a result, drummer Zachary O'Renick made the move to lead vocalist, surrounding himself with producer Brennon Staples and percussionist Brey McCoy. Despite the whirlwind of changes, Nerves Junior has managed to keep its identity largely in tact on a follow-up EP that measures up to the high expectations set by the band's debut.
Craters EP was released on sonaBLAST! Records in early February. The band achieves an impressive level of depth and emotion in just three tracks. Below, watch Nerves Junior's video for "Goodnight Nobody." Indianapolis readers can catch the band at White Rabbit Cabaret alongside The Bonesetters and Polar Island on April 26. If their performance lives up to the live studio sound that Nerves Junior pulled off during a recent WFPK "Live Lunch" session, this is going to be a show that you won't want to miss.

Album Stream: Nerves Junior 'As Bright As Your Night Light'
Hit play. Hit play right down there next to the creepy man-rabbit that looks like he just leapt out of one of Donnie Darko's trippy parallel universes. Now, don't touch your computer for a while. I recently stumbled across Nerves Junior via The Decibel Tolls. This blog is written and operated by a man who calls himself Kenny Bloggins.
Kenny knows Louisville, the hometown of Nerves Junior. Kenny knows music, and Kenny knows how to write. Because I know all of these things to be true, I will simply refer you HERE. While you're listening to As Bright As Your Night Light, read Kenny's words. These are the best two pieces of advice that I can give you today. It's not much, but it's something.


Twitter was the place to be this morning as Magic Breakfast presenter Neil Fox tweeted his feelings about Radio 1's Breakfast host Nick Grimshaw.
Neil called 28 year old Nick a "#totalnob" for saying Robbie Williams is too old and irrelevant to Radio 1's audience – which is aimed at 15-29 year olds.
Reports say Robbie's new single Candy was left off the A list at Radio 1 because they felt that it was too old for the station's demographic, whilst new acts such as One Direction and Calvin Harris are on heavy rotation.
Neil Fox thinks the decision "smacks of desperations" and will backfire on them.
He told RadioToday.co.uk: "I'm not the voice of youth but Radio 1 are crazy for saying they're not playing his new song. He'll still be popular when One Direction have split up.
The debate started when Radio 1 said they are not playing Robbie, and Nick Grimshaw confirmed it to 5 News: "I don't know if he's now for a Radio 1 audience. I've never listened to a Robbie Williams song, but I really like him.
We asked Neil about his tweets this morning. He said: "I don't know Nick I'm sure he's a nice guy but it will be interesting to see how long he lasts now his honeymoon period is over".
