Dr Grordbort Presents: The Deadliest Game Trailer from Media Design School on Vimeo.
Well, I was busy working on a diatribe about a particularly disturbing, but expected eventuality with the beloved genre, but as I am not quite finished with it yet, fate handed a bit of a blogger "hall pass", and up popped this beautiful work by Mr. J. Cunningham, and talented students from the Media Design School, about the legendary Steampunk adventurer, Dr. Grordbort! Titled "The Deadliest Game", it is a very well done trailer – and one can only hope the extended work will make its way to realization soon! Please do enjoy!


IROHAKARUTA - This restaurant serves breakfast only.
The experience was amazing! The lobby staff were so friendly and tried their best to guide me and give advise on how to reach my destinations. Checking in was a breeze but they only allow check in at 3pm. Not earlier. Room is small but like other hotels in Japan. Bed is a very comfy queen sized bed. Pillows were okay for me but a bit too soft n flat for my hubby. Bathroom is small but sufficient for stay. Really clean. Overall very satisfied with my stay here. Will stay here again if i were to visit kyoto.
Great location. Staff were friendly too.
Location was convenient since its just next to the Kyoto train station. Room was comfortable despite the size with the usual amenities provided. Check in was easy and overall service was good.
Rooms are small. Business size. Location is just across the kyoto station.


The OFA Flood Blackspot of July 2009 was the Hinksey Stream from North Hinksey to Redbridge, which badly needed clearing. This has now been done by the Environment Agency. It is very much better. Thank you!


It's Friday, and so that means that we are having a blog hop over @ Sketch Frenzy Friday. And, to help get things started, I am the designer of this weeks sketch! How cool is that? Here is the sketch I created for this week over @ Sketch Frenzy Friday.
Now, head on over to Tammy F.'s blog to see what she has created! And join us this week!
Gorgeous! I just love how you layer so many different prints and they always work together! And your bow is such a beautiful accent!
I had no idea this blog existed and now it's going on my list of sketch inspirations. Thank you so much for sharing this card...it's SENSATIONAL Sharon. :) The greens are so refeshing and the design and precise. Love it!
WOW! As usual, your card blows me away! Love it!
Hi Sharon, I LOVE THIS SKETCH! it amazes me that the focal images can pop so beautifully with a the various pieces of the background shapes. Well done my friend. I am going to use this sketch often it is very user friendly!


Americans have something of a science problem. They swallow, for example, about $28 billion worth of vitamins each year, even though the Annals of Internal Medicine recently concluded that "[m]ost supplements do not prevent chronic disease or death, their use is not justified, and they should be avoided." Americans often fear swallowing genetically modified plants (and Vermont recently required labeling of food containing genetically modified organisms, known as GMOs), though GMOs have "been consumed by hundreds of millions of people across the world for more than 15 years, with no reported ill effects," according to the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine.
Science has its own explanation for why people are resistant to scientific beliefs. In evolutionary theory (assuming you believe such a thing), our intuitions about the physical world are generally accurate on a human scale — calculating the proper force and trajectory to hit a mammoth with a spear. But on matters that are not immediately related to our survival — say, on quantum motion, or the nature of black holes, or the effect of radio-frequency energy on the DNA in cells — our intuitions are pretty much useless. Science has often advanced in an uphill fight against common intuitions.
These intuitions can be shaped by a variety of factors: ideology, religion, philosophy or culture. Resistance to vaccination or GMOs is sometimes rooted in a nearly religious belief that natural things are better — including, apparently, disease outbreaks and plants that die easily in droughts. A decade ago, I met a South African health official who argued that AIDS could be treated with garlic because she believed that pharmaceutical treatment was a neocolonial plot. Resistance in the United States to evolution is often associated with conservative religion. And skepticism about climate change is correlated with libertarian and free-market beliefs.
In its simplest, cable-television version, this charge, at least against scientists, is outrageous. The assumption that the vast majority in a scientific field is engaged in fraud or corruption is frankly conspiratorial. In this case, the conspiracy would need to encompass the national academies of more than two dozen countries, including the United States.
Other, more measured criticisms ring truer. Some scientists have displayed an artificial certainty on some matters that seems to cross into advocacy. Others assume that the only way to deal with greenhouse gas emissions is a strict, global regulatory regime — an economic and political judgment that has nothing to do with their actual expertise.
Our intuitions are useless here. The only possible answers come from science. And for non-scientists, this requires a modicum of trust in the scientific enterprise. Even adjusting for the possibility of untoward advocacy, it seems clear that higher concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere have produced a modest amount of warming and are likely to produce more. This, in turn, is likely to produce higher sea levels, coastal flooding, shifting fisheries, ocean acidification, water shortages, lower crop yields and vanishing ecosystems. The consequences will vary by region but are likely to be more severe in poorer nations. New York City can adapt to a rising ocean better than Bangladesh.
This scientific consensus raises difficult political questions. Is some grand global bargain on carbon-dioxide emissions, including China and India, even a possibility? Might it be more practical to make polluters pay — perhaps with a revenue-neutral carbon tax, fully rebated to taxpayers — thereby encouraging the development of new technologies that limit future carbon emissions? And I'd add: How can you oppose GMOs that resist pests and drought while pretending to help poor nations cope with climate disruption?
But perhaps the most difficult question is this: How can you make serious political decisions based on scientific likelihoods when politics thrives on the feeding of ideological certainties?


PDX Serialization Internals - Geode - Apache Software Foundation for your Wiki!
PDX serialization is the preferred serialization format for storing objects in Geode. PDX serialization is designed to serialize data as compactly as possible, while still providing the capability to read individual fields in a serialized object for query processing. PDX is also designed for ease of use, backwards and forwards compatibility between different versions of your objects.
Bruce Schuchardt wrote up a excellent article on using PDX on the pivotal blog: Data Serialization: How to Run Multiple Big Data Apps on a Single Data Store with GemFire. In this article, we're going to dive behind the scenes and look at how PDX implements these features.
A serialized object must arrive at it's destination with enough information to deserialize the object. Self describing formats such as JSON or XML are easy to convert to objects because the description is embedded in the text. However systems designed for efficiency tend to separate the description of an object from the serialized data itself. With thrift and protobuf, that description is defined with an IDL and turned into code. With Avro, object descriptions are defined in JSON schemas and two systems can exchange schema definitions in a handshake.
PDX takes the approach of schema exchange and cranks it up a notch by taking advantage of Geode's data storage and distribution capabilities. With PDX, serialized object descriptions are called "types" and types are stored within the Geode distributed system in a PDX type registry. The serialized data contains a unique type id that can be used to look up the type from the registry.
HEADER - This is just a magic number to tell Geode this is a PDX object as opposed to an object serialized in some other format.
DSID - The distributed system id for the system that generated this type.
ID - An id that uniquely identifies what PDX type is used to deserialize this data.
FIELDS - The actual data. Fixed sized fields are written in the number of bytes needed for the field, for example an int takes 4 bytes. Variable length fields (eg a string) are written with a length followed by field data.
OFFSETS - The offsets to each variable length field (except for the first one). Offsets to fixed length fields are not included here because those offsets are stored in the PDX type definition. The size of each offset is based on the size of the overall serialized data. For example a byte array < 32K in size would have 2 byte offsets.
The name of the Java (or C#, or C++) class to create when deserializing this blob.
A map of fieldName -> PdxField. The PdxField contains the information necessary to locate the field in the serialized data. It has an offset to location of a variable length offset in the serialized data. It also has a second offset that is added to whatever offset is read from the serialized data. The sum of those offsets points to the location of the field in the serialized data.
You may observe that the serialized data could potentially be encoded slightly more compactly, for example by using something like varints used in protobuf to encode an integer in 1-5 bytes. PDX trades off this potential space savings for the ability to read a single field quickly.
To see how this works, imagine reading a single field 'price' using PdxInstance. PDX will look up the field based on the name, read the variable length offset for that field from the serialized bytes, and then seek to the location of the the field and read the single field. This capability to read individual fields is used extensively in the querying system to avoid deserializing more than necessary while evaluating a query.
At the most basic level, PDX types are stored in a Geode replicated region called PdxTypes. That region is available on all peers within a distributed system. When a new type is being defined, the type registry uses a distributed lock to ensure that it obtains a unique id. It then puts the new type in the region using a transaction. The type is now known to all peers within the distributed system. If the system is using persistence, the type registry region will also be persistent so that the type information can be recovered on restart.
Clients obtain types lazily when they try to deserialize an object. If a type is not known to a client, the client fetches the type from a server and caches it in it's own local type registry.
Each WAN site can independently assign ids to types. To ensure different WAN sites do not assign the same ID to different types, the type ID is prefixed with a distributed system id which is unique for each WAN site. When a type is defined in one WAN site, it is added to the queue to be sent to other WAN sites to ensure they receive the type information before the data.
An important thing to observe about the type registry is that all versions of an object are stored in the type registry. When a member deserializes an object, it looks up the PDX type that matches the id in the serialized data. From the point of view of the member deserializing the object, that type may have some missing or extra fields because it was serialized with a different version of the code.
The PDX system will fill in missing fields with a default value. For extra fields, the PDX system will save these unread fields and tack them back on to the serialized data if the same object is serialized again.
One interesting consequence of this behavior is that the actual serialized object contains the union of all of the fields from different versions of a class. For example if two client applications are interacting with a Person object, and one application adds a twitter handle and the other adds facebook id, the resulting Person will have both fields in the serialized data, even though neither application has both fields on the class. Because PDX automatically generates a type ID for any new object description it sees, it happily generates a new type id for this new hybrid Person object with both fields.
PDX is an easy to use serialization system that is fast for serialization, deserialization, and random field access. I hope this behind the scenes look helps you understand some of the design goals and capabilities of PDX.


People swear they have seen vampires. That is why they believe in them.
We've seen them in the movies for sure. Medieval people swore they saw them walking around at night. Every Halloween they appear in various forms at parties and for Trick-or-Treating. There are groups of people who actually believe that they are vampires, and drink each other's blood. We have seen them. They are real. We believe.
Jesus was crucified. That is a fact. He was guilty of no crime. Also a fact. And He rose from the dead. Fact. Not fiction. Not myth or folklore. Fact. He was seen.
Many people saw Jesus after his death, the first being Mary Magdalene. He spoke to her and asked her why she was crying. They conversed. Fact.
He was seen by fishermen, and regular people. The Bible says He was seen by "the masses" detailing out multiple sightings of every day people, and once at a gathering of over 500. Fact.
He appeared to the disciples multiple times, once behind a locked door. They were afraid for their own lives and feared persecution after Christ's death. Thomas, nicknamed Doubting Thomas said "I will believe it when I see Him and can put my hand in His wounds." So Jesus went to him and said "here I am. Put your finger in my wounds." Fact.
Yet still the masses do not believe. Myth, legend and lore, like vampires are more believable to some, than the One who rose from the dead - and proved it! Many, many people saw him. He spoke to them, touched them, encouraged and comforted them.
He told them "You believe because you have seen. Blessed are those who have not seen and still believe."

Q: Fundamental Misunderstanding About CORS and Ajax Call I have code that works, but I'm having a difficult time making the connection as to why it works.
I have code in an AngularJS factory function that makes this call:
$http.get('http://webServerName/PrestoWebApi/api/apps/')

And this is the Web API controller (C#):
[EnableCors(origins: "http://webServerName", headers: "*", methods: "*")]
public class AppsController : ApiController

The source of the call would be a user's computer, for example, a laptop with the name JoesLaptop. And that laptop could run anywhere. (Currently, this is all running inside one LAN, but the user could be anywhere.)
So why does specifying the web server name within the EnableCors attribute work? Isn't the request coming from the browser on Joe's laptop and not from the web server itself?
Edit
If I remove the EnableCors attribute, I get this error in the F12 tools in the browser:
XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://webServerName/PrestoWebApi/api/apps/. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://webServerName' is therefore not allowed access.
Edit 2
Request:
GET http://fs-6103.fs.local/PrestoWebApi/api/apps/ HTTP/1.1

A: If webServerName is rendering an HTML page that is starting an asynchronous request to webServerName, then CORS doesn't apply and your server will serve that resource anyway.
I'm pretty sure that must be your case.
UPDATE
Based on the latest edits of the question and the comments that the OP has made bellow this answer, this is what must be happening.
The HTTP server that it's serving both the main HTML page and the API resource is the same, therefore there shouldn't be any need to EnableCORS. However, according to the headers of the Request the page is being served from http://fs-6103 and the $http.get is made to http://fs-6103.fs.local. That should explain everything.
UPDATE 2
Ok, I'm willing to bet that this is what's happening here:

*

*The main page is being served by http://fs-6103

*The $http.get is made towards: http://fs-6103.fs.local/
So far I'm not speculating, this is what the request is saying
The OP must have [EnableCors(origins: "http://fs-6103", headers: "*", methods: "*")] set into the API controller.
When this is disabled the OP is getting the error:  No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource, as it should be expected. And when the  OP enables it everything works as expected.

A: Browsers/clients handle the security, and generally restrict things to single origin, meaning they only accept stuff from the server they made the request to. Enabling cors in the header (ACAO) or wherever lets that server tell the browser, "hey those other Cross origin resources are with me." The browser will generally go along with that.

This awesome DIY GoPro pole mount was designed by the guys over at Sugru. If you haven't heard of Sugru, you need to go check them out. They're a DIY-er's dream come true.
Check out the video below to learn what Sugru is all about.
Another ingenious idea from the guys at gopro~ Mad props to you guys for coming up with all these designs. Anyways, I love working with sugrus man, it's like playing with clay, only this thing hardens like a platinum with time lol. I wonder how long the sugru will stay stuck on the pole though. A year? Two maybe? Oh well, who cares as long as it does what its job and it lasts long enough.
I got leftover sugrus from another project (I messed up :P) and an old ski pole I should be able to get one for free from my grandpa, so the whole thing should cost me only $3 hehe~ One flat GoPro mount from ebay and I'm good to go. I'm gonna get some awesome shots for youtube with this on my next ski trip.
Tip; Don't have the money for sugru?? Just drill a hole at the end of the piece of ski pole for a bolt.

'Star Trek: Picard' Season 3 teases union of 'Voyager,' 'Deep Space Nine,' and 'TNG' casts
Tara Bennett
If you're a fan of '90s-era Star Trek, then Feb. 16 is going to be your most chocolate-meets-peanut-butter day ever, because Season 3 of Star Trek: Picard is openly celebrating that the finale season is essentially a uniting of casts from Star Trek: Voyager, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: The Next Generation. Sir Patrick Stewart returns to play Admiral Jean-Luc Picard and welcomes the return of Trek favorites LeVar Burton (Geordie La Forge), Michael Dorn (Worf), Jonathan Frakes (Captain Riker), Gates McFadden (Dr. Beverly Crusher), Marina Sirtis (Deanna Troi), Brent Spiner (Data/Soong/Lore), and Jeri Ryan (Seven of Nine).
At today's Television Critics Association winter press tour panel for Star Trek: Picard Season 3 (attended by SYFY WIRE), Stewart, Dorn, McFadden, Ryan, and Michelle Hurd (Rafaella "Raffi" Musiker) joined showrunner/EP Terry Matalas (12 Monkeys) and executive producer Alex Kurtzman to tease a few new tidbits about what is being touted as the final season of the series. They also revealed the new one-sheet for the season:

RELATED: Ronny Cox talks about Jellico's triumphant return to 'Star Trek' in latest season of 'Prodigy'
Matalas, who first joined the Trek-verse as a production assistant on Voyager, told reporters that this season was used as an opportunity to celebrate Picard's character, his circle of friends, and to see how they've all grown into their mature years. "How better to end that journey than to look back at the beginning and bring his friends and family from Star Trek: The Next Generation?" the showrunner said.
Other characters reportedly returning from TNG days will be Denise Crosby's Tasha Yar and Daniel Davis reprising his role as hologram Professor Moriarty. Matalas confessed, "The Moriarty storyline was a big influence on me when I was younger...and he's just as good as he was back then." He added they "in no way" had to twist Davis' arm to get him to reprise his role as Moriarty.
Asked about returning to the Picard character for what's ended up being an unexpected three season run, Stewart said, "I have lived nearly 35 years since I have put on the captain's uniform. I wanted the series to show the impact of those years that have passed and how much one might change, and whether fears become greater or less."
McFadden praised the team for writing a fresh story for Dr. Crusher that even includes some action sequences. "I love kicking ass, first of all," she said. "I always wanted to do more action." She added that this Crusher feels more like the character as created by Gene Roddenberry. "There's a much bigger range this season."
Dorn shared that he had robust conversations with the executive producers about where Worf has been prior to when audiences see him again in this season. "Worf has always been searching through TNG and DS9 for who he is. That's something we wanted to bring to this series." Plus, we get Worf as a silver fox hair, which the actor said his ego initally balked at, but he eventually came around to it.
"You have to take a risk. You have to trust the people," Dorn said about his happiness with Worf's arc this season.
Asked if this is really going to be the end of this series, Stewart hedged saying any definitive words and just offered that there are several doors left open in the season, so "who knows one day."

About us > History
The Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics starts its history from 1956-1957 academic year. It was when the group of students led by the professor Kostovskiy on the basic of the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics started their first training in computational mathematics and programming. The first graduates of this specialty were in 1959. The big amount of graduates was sent to continue their researches to the Institute of Cybernetics, Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (Kyiv). At that time it was also called the Computing Centre of the Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, which was founded in 1957 by Academician Glushkov.
In 1958 in Lviv University the first in western region electronic digital computer "Ural-1" was installed, and the calculation center was organized. Since that time the intensive development of research papers in the spheres of applied, numerical mathematics and informatics started in Lviv University. There were works not only fundamental nature connected with the development of numeral methods, but also applied nature connected with the progress in electronic instrumentation and mechanical engineering.
In 1975 the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics was founded in Lviv University. The faculty combined the departments of Computational Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, the Theory of Optimal Processes and Mechanics. In 1988 when the department of Mechanics was connected to the Faculty of Mathematics, the faculty was renamed to the Faculty of Applied Mathematics, and in 1990 to the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics. The Deans of the Faculty were Kostovskiy (1975-78), Hrylitskiy (1978-87), Bartish (1987-1996), Savula (1996-2015) and Dyyak (since 2015).
The research work on the Faculty is carried out in the field of basic and applied researches, in particular, by the scientific school "Numerical modeling and optimization of physical-mechanical fields", and in the scientific fields: numerical methods for solving nonlinear operator equations and problems on the extreme, numerical methods for solving integral equations, theoretical cybernetics. Since 1993 the Faculty holds annually the Current Problem of Applied Mathematics and Informatics International Conference. The results of scientific researchers are published in national and international scientific journals.
Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics publishes the "Visnyk of the Lviv University. Series Applied Mathematics and Computer Science" since 1999.
The lecturers of the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics regularly try to help secondary schools in Lviv and the region to organize the process of studying of informatics, the local and regional Olympiads and conduct training courses in specialized schools in Lviv and in other cities.
On the Faculty students have access to seven computer laboratories which are equipped with modern computers with high-speed Internet access, multimedia projectors and licensed software (provided in particular, by the Microsoft Corporation within the framework of cooperation with educational institutions DreamSpark, by ESRI (software for the design and construction of geographic information systems)).
Since 1997 the Faculty annually holds all-Ukrainian (since 2002-international) student conference of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science. The most essential results of students' researches are published in scientific journals. In 2008 our students won golden medals and in 2016 – bronze medals in World Finals of the ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest. In the Ukrainian history that was the first time, when students managed to reach such goals in Olympiad in Informatics, and we are proud that those were our students.
There are seven departments on the Faculty: the Department of Сomputational Mathematics, the Department of Applied Mathematics, the Department of The Theory of Optimal Processes, the Department of Programming, the Department of Information Systems, the Department of Mathematical Modeling of Social and Economics Processes and the Department of Discrete Analysis and Intelligent Systems.

Photo: Ralph Williams unsoldering capsule.
Opening the time capsule, sealed 67 years earlier by his Father and Grandfather, A. Atwater Kent III, (Click here for photo) carefully pulled the solder-sealed copper box from the large granite corner stone. After the press took their photos, the capsule was carefully carried to the front and placed upon the podium. Waiting, with the largest soldering iron this reporter has ever seen, was Ralph Williams, Atwater Kent Collector and Historian and Kent family friend. As the last of the seal was removed by Williams and the top lifted, a hissing sound of fresh air entering could be heard. Then it seemed like an eternity before the first artifact was removed.
The time capsule was dedicated, on a beautiful spring day, May 21, 1929. It was attended by city officials, business men, bankers in top hats and the Atwater Kent Family. In a film provided by Great-grandson Peter Kent, the entire dedication ceremony could be seen. After all the documents and items were placed within, the copper box was soldered shut. It was next placed on a granite slab by A. Atwater Kent with the assistance of his son, A. Atwater Kent Jr. Mortar was placed carefully around it's base and the large hollowed-out corner stone with a large "1928" carved into it's face was put in place, over the copper box. As the supporting chain hoist slowly lowered the heavy stone, mortar oozed out and was quickly wiped off by Kent. Workmen then slid the corner stone into place where it remained, untouched, until today.
Williams, assisted by Jeffrey R. Ray, Curator of Collections at the Atwater Kent Museum in Philadelphia, carefully put on their protective gloves, so as to not damage the artifacts. The first item removed was the dedication speech, written on index cards, in AK's handwriting. Williams noted that several words were underlined for emphasis.
Several newspapers were next removed, starting with the Sunday May 12, 1929 Evening Bulletin. Then the Philadelphia Daily News, the Philadelphia Public Ledger, the Philadelphia Record and the Philadelphia Inquirer were removed; all dated May 21, 1929. Some of the papers faired better the others, over the time. At least one was like new, the others were in various stages of yellow and brittle.

The lid was removed and the 55 was tilted towards the audience to display the inside. We could see the tops of several tubes and the original instruction book tucked inside it's envelope. Williams instructed Ray to remove the book and went on to describe the model 55 set. The table-top set had ten Cunningham globe tubes, used a separate speaker and was the "peak radio [of the Atwater Kent line] of that period," Williams said.
Concluding the ceremony Williams thanked Mr. Paul Chistolini, Regional Administrator of General Services and the General Services Administration, current owners of the building, for "the sensitive treatment they used for this event." Chistolini went on to explain that the contents would be initially displayed in the new structure, housing the Department of Veterans Affairs located nearby. Later the artifacts would be loaned to the Atwater Kent Museum.
We were then all invited to enter the old Atwater Kent Factory building to enjoy a lunch reception.
NJARC members attending were: President Jim and Ruth Whartenby, Past-President Tony Flanagan, Vice President Ludwell Sibley - KB2EVN, John Dilks - K2TQN, Marsha and Jerry Simkin, Bill Overbeck, Mike Koste and Ted Sowirka - W3SYN. Members of the DVHRC attending were Dave Abramson, John Kern, Ralph Williams - N3VT, Paul Bohlander - W3VVS, Bob Thomas - W3QZO, William Ward - K3QWO, John Okolowicz and AWA Vice President Ron Frisbie. Other notables I was able to identify were AWA President Bill Fizette - K3ZJW, Jack Williamson - W3GC of Barker & Williamson fame, and AWA member William Denk.

La competizione dei 400 metri piani maschili di atletica leggera ai Giochi della XV Olimpiade si è disputata nei giorni 24 e 25 luglio 1952 allo Stadio olimpico di Helsinki.

L'eccellenza mondiale

La gara
Può sembrare incredibile data la pluridecennale storia delle olimpiadi, ma Arthur Wint è il primo campione olimpico dei 400 metri che si ripresenta quattro anni dopo in pista.
Il giamaicano vince la sua semifinale con 46"3.
In finale Wint non distribuisce bene lo sforzo e, dopo essere passato ai 200 in uno strabiliante 21"7, cede nel finale venendo poi ripreso dagli avversari.
Si disputano la vittoria i suoi compagni di squadra. La spunta Rhoden su McKenley (già secondo a Londra 1948) in un arrivo serrato.
Wint arriva quinto precedendo il vincitore dei Trials Whitfield.

Il secondo classificato, Herb McKenley, è l'unico atleta olimpico che nel XX secolo ha conquistato medaglie sia nei 100 che nei 400 metri.
Considerando anche il fatto che è arrivato quarto nei 200 metri, è l'unico atleta del XX secolo che ai Giochi olimpici è arrivato in finale su 100, 200 e 400 metri.

The Old Foodie: Potato Beer Bread.
Hm.. Being a potato hater i find myself intrigued by that quote.
The bread recipe is rather interesting though!
when I first fell in love with Paris, I stayed in hotels and suffered through agonizingly mediocre dinners in nameless bistros, always longing for a kitchen of my own, to paraphrase Virginia Woolf.
and did you love Parisian bread?

Iravatheeswarar Temple, Thirukottaram (ஐராவதீசுவரர் கோயில், திருக்கொட்டாரம்) is a Hindu temple located in the village of Thirukottaram in the Tiruvarur district of Tamil Nadu, India. Constructed by the Medieval Cholas about 1000 years ago, the temple is dedicated to Shiva. The temple is situated on the banks of the Vanchiyaru River a tributary of the Kaveri River.

Legend

According to Hindu mythology, the king of the gods Indra and his elephant Airavata once showed disrespect to the sage Durvasa. As a result, the sage cursed both of them. Airavata was born on earth as a wild elephant and was relieved of the curse only after he had spent one hundred years visiting Hindu holy sites. Thirukottaram was one of the sites visited.

Significance

It is one of the shrines of the 275 Paadal Petra Sthalams. Praises of the temple have been sung by Sambandar in the Thevaram. The Thevaram is inscribed on the walls of the temple within the sanctum sanctorum. There are also inscriptions by Kulothunga Chola I who claims to be the builder of the temple.

Shrines

The presiding deity is Shiva. There are also shrines for Ganesha, Bhairava, Murugan, Ardhanarisvara, Surya and Chandra.

makes its appearance in our countryside, it makes us feel quite special.
And if the Titmouse feels at home in Durham-Sud, we know it's because LIFE IS GOOD HERE !
Durham-Sud enjoys spring water from a deep and abundant source just as mother nature intended it. Our municipal well is fed by this fresh water source that is of the highest quality and which meets the norms set by the Minister of the Environment.
Though we are near many urban centers, we enjoy all the perks of living in the country: green open spaces, fresh clean air to thrive on, tranquility, a beautiful country side evenly quilted with forest and prairie as far as the eye can see, and restful nights under a clearly visible star-lit sky.
Durham-Sud, a village of approximately 1000 inhabitants, defines itself as the municipality that "weaves the ties that bind". One of our strengths remains the existence of an English community which has encouraged from one generation to another, bilingualism, respect and harmony among all its citizens.
Void of any large industry, this municipality is a haven for any young family to grow in a healthy and secure environment.
South-Durham distinguishes itself by its central location giving acces to urban centers as close as 15 mins to Valcourt, 15 mins to Acton Vale, 15 mins to Richmond, 25 mins to Drummondville, 40 mins to Sherbrooke, 45 mins to Granby, 50 mins to St-Hyacinthe, and 60 mins to Montreal's south shore.
The country side is garnished with an interesting number and variety of primarily family owned farms which continue through generations to contribute to the success of our local agriculture.
The primary school is located in the heart of the village. Surrounded by trees and greenery, the school is built on a hill providing the ideal terrain for sliding in the winter months and thereby getting lots of cardio-vascular activity.
The advantage of having a school in a rural community is that the students feel secure because they are familiar with the teaching team and in turn, the educators can give more personalized service to the students.
Continually searching for interesting ways for the children to learn, the team of educators place a lot of emphasis on respect and team work.
The school has a very dynamic daycare service to accommodate early arrivals. After school, there is a homework assistance program and recreational activities are offered for the later departures. In addition, special activity days are planned on pedagogical days.
Integrated into the educational program is the "Histoire de Durham-Sud" project. Through various animations, the students at each of the primary levels are introduced to life in the olden days by learning about the history of their municipality. Through the stories of Antoine, a young man born in 1905, the students are encouraged to discover themselves and to write their own story.
In 2005, the playground was completely renewed. Among the attractions are a new play park surrounded by trees for the young to safely slide and climb on. Also, the new skating rink, covered with a special surface, makes conditions ideal for ice skating and hockey in the winter, and roller-blading the rest of the time.
Dreaming of personalised services, free from traffic and long lineups!!
That is how we are served in Durham-Sud! To know what services are available, please view the BUSINESS DIRECTORY and COMMUNITY SERVICES sections.
HIGH SPEED INTERNET ACCESS is now available to the majority of our citizens allowing you to enjoy the richness of country living with the practicality of modern technology.
Lovely residential lots of 16140 sq ft with aqueduct. Many services nearby.
The city works services are covered by the municipality.
All this is available to those who dream of establishing themselves in this pleasant, quiet countryside.


I have had the Weygant.com domain name for awhile now and have tried several different sites which had what I think was a good start but fell off as my time was taken up with more important things like work and stuff.
So I'm going to try something different again, I hope it works. My plan for Weygant.com is to blog and post on what information I have on the Weygant family and along the way throw in personal anecdotes' I recall from my parents, aunts, uncles and grandparents. When my sister Janice passed away I received most of the family photos, some with quite a story as to how they came to me. I'm working out the best way to get these photos into an electronic medium, the hardest ones are pasted in albums my grandmother Leila made from their grand motor car trips in the 20's and 30's.
I have a Weygant family genealogy booklet that my Great Aunt Sr. Noemi Weygant, My Grandfather Clarence aka CP and many other family members put together that will give me a good starting point. So that's the plan, I think as I move forward this will be a site that it won't matter if it lies fallow for weeks or months at a time since it is a repository of information.

Funding History
Embryo Adoption
Topics on this page: Funding | Grants
The Office of Population Affairs (OPA) within the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Health (OASH) is responsible for administering the frozen embryo adoption public awareness campaign. The campaign supports grants, cooperative agreements and/or contracts which aim to increase public awareness of embryo donation/adoption. The program may also fund projects that provide services to make this family building option more attainable for infertile couples.
In the course of treatments for infertility, couples usually produce more embryos than they can use. These supernumerary embryos are generally frozen while the couple who created them decides about their ultimate disposition. This freezing process is known as cryo-preservation. The latest data suggest that there are more than 620,000 cryo-preserved embryos in the United States. However, it is likely that the vast majority of these cryo-preserved embryos are still being considered for use in the family-building efforts of the couples who created them. Moreover, some embryos are earmarked by the creating couples for use in research. Nevertheless, it is thought that there may be as many as 60,000 frozen embryos which could potentially be made available for embryo adoption (that is, the transfer of the embryo to the uterus of a woman who intends to bear a child and to be that child's parent). The ultimate purpose of the program is to promote the use of embryo/donation as a family-building option.
The embryo adoption program is authorized under Section 301 of the Public Health Service Act. In fiscal years 2002, and 2004 - 2015. Congress provided funding in the HHS annual appropriations act for an embryo adoption public awareness campaign. The purpose is to educate Americans about the existence of frozen embryos (resulting from in-vitro fertilization), which may be available for donation/adoption for family building.
In general, three to five grants have been awarded each year through a competitive process. The grants generally have a two-year life-span.

Q: throwing exception for wrong array length I'm trying to figure out how I can throw an exception based on the length of an array, but at the same time, be able to return a value if the length is correct
Ex:
 public Complex readInput()
 {
     Complex temp = 0;
     try
     {
          Console.Write("Enter input: ");
          string input = Console.ReadLine();

          String[] cplx= input.Split(' ');
          if (cplx.Length != x)
          {
               throw new IndexOutOfRangeException("INVALID INPUT ENTRY...");
          }

          temp = new Complex(Double.Parse(cplx[0]), Double.Parse(cplx[1]), ...);
     }
     catch (FormatException)
     {
          Console.WriteLine("INVALID INPUT ENTRY...");
     }
     return temp;
 } // end readInput

Ideally, I'd just want the if (opr.Length ...) and IndexOutOfRangeException.. I think I'm using the IndexOutOfRange incorrectly. Is there a way to throw the exception if the array length is not equal to x (can be whatever #), but if it is, return whatever is in it without the try/catch?
Edit: Figured out a part of it: https://stackoverflow.com/a/20580118/2872988

A: I think you need to throw by like this
 public Complex readInput()
 {
     Complex temp = 0;
     try
     {
          Console.Write("Enter input: ");
          string input = Console.ReadLine();

          String[] cplx= input.Split(' ');
          if (cplx.Length >= x)
          {
               throw new IndexOutOfRangeException("INVALID INPUT ENTRY...");
          }

          temp = new Complex(Double.Parse(cplx[0]), Double.Parse(cplx[1]), ...);
     }
     catch (FormatException)
     {
          Console.WriteLine("INVALID INPUT ENTRY...");
     }
     return temp;
 }

A: Hy, the code will be a little better if you use your own exception description. Try using Exception(string description). The code will look a lot better of this way. Remember that the exception is to alert to the programmer that some thing is not working fine.
        Complex temp = null;
        try
        {
            Console.Write("Enter input: ");
            string input = Console.ReadLine();

            String[] cplx = input.Split(' ');
            if (cplx.Length != x)
                throw new Exception("INVALID INPUT ENTRY...");

            temp = new Complex(Double.Parse(cplx[0]), Double.Parse(cplx[1]));
        }
        catch (Exception)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("INVALID INPUT ENTRY...");
        }


During a panel for Netflix's hit drama The Crown on Friday, Claire Foy answered the question we've all been asking: yes, there is a difference between being difficult and advocating for yourself.
When the royally unfair news broke that despite being the Queen on a show about the British royal family, Foy was paid less than her male co-star Matt Smith, the show's creators vowed that going forward "no one gets paid more than the Queen." Unfortunately, in the famous works of early 2000s JoJo, it's just a little too late. It is one thing to attempt to do the right thing going forward after people find out, it is another to pursue pay parity from the beginning. If you want to do better, you should try to do it before someone calls you out for it.
Foy addressed the topic of the pay gap with the grace and poise of the role she has spent the last two years playing. A queen on screen and off. The actress admitted that prior to the #MeToo and Time's Up movements and the increase in discussion surrounding women's rights, she wasn't asked about her experience as a woman in the entertainment industry or as a woman in general. While the pay gap is disheartening, Foy makes an excellent point. The fact that it is being talked about so publicly and with such support is itself an accomplishment worth celebrating. We can't forget to notice the small things along the way. It isn't the end goal we are striving for, but it is a huge part in getting there.
Foy's co-star Vanessa Kirby, who played Princess Margaret, credited her character for teaching her about herself and about the role of women in the world. Princess Margaret faces more than her fair share of barriers in life due to being a woman. This is kind of an understatement. I pretty much spent the entirety of season 1 and 2 rooting for Princess Margaret to catch a break. Kirby was inspired by Princess Margaret's continued resilience. I think that trait is just as valuable now as it was then. Where would women's rights be without resilience?
Both Foy and Kirby have honed in on what is worth celebrating as women fight for equality both in the workplace and outside of it. More importantly, it is a reminder that there are things to celebrate along the way and not just when we have completely achieved our goals.

It's always nice to get new products in, especially products I've tried and loved. My small but carefully curated selection of green beauty products at Sujet de Vert are products I love to use.
This week we received a lot of new products from Lyonsleaf. I'm addicted to some already. Problem skin seems to love Lyonsleaf and I'm especially grateful to Vicky, Lyonsleaf founder, for making products that have provided such relief for itchy and sensitive skin.
First off, there is the new Lyonsleaf Natural Soap. We stock two types, calendula and calendula, manuka and goats milk. These are lovely moisturising soaps that soothe dry skin.
There are also two new creams. Lyonsleaf Mothers Marshmallow & Calendula Cream and Calendula and Zinc Cream. The mothers cream is for everyone really. I've been using it on several dry patches and it has provided some serious relief. It's super moisturising, which is just what my skin needed.
Also new in are the facial oils by Lyonsleaf – Marshmallow Soften and Rejuvenate in scented and unscented versions. I do like the scented version. I've noticed a brightening effect with this oil and it's a non-greasy texture so it can be worn under makeup.
Another favourite of mine is Hairy Jayne Hair Perfume with Heat Protection. This is brilliant for use before flat ironing and blow drying hair. Frizz is reduced and hair is left soft and sleek. It can also be used to refresh hair between washes. It's available in 50 and 100ml sizes.
These cream blushes are 90% vegan, gluten free and 90% organic.
As always we offer free hand delivery in London W1.


I welcome any discussion of how we can work together. Perhaps you need advice, a few small projects, photo retouching, files reformatted, or ...? Let's discuss!
Everyone has different needs. Every business is unique and must cater to their specific market and audience. You may need a single brochure. A startup may need a partner for a full branding initiative. I look forward to both small and large projects. Bring it on.
I generally prefer to work as a freelance consultant and manage projects based on current workload. However, at times I will take on contract work.
Branding and identity graphics are often an itiative with a defined start and finish. Other work is often done as needed for specific marketing plans. My role in these projects is flexible and I am always available to clients for future support. I welcome small projects, contract work and long-term relationships.
I usually take on small projects alone and tap other resources for larger projects and those beyond my personal skill set. I believe in assigning work to experienced professionals. If you need a simple brochure, that's me. If you need an instructional video, I'll bring in some of my favorite camera operators, editors, writers and voice talent. If you have a large catalog that needs a lot of original copy and photography, let's bring in a writer and photographer. If I'm not a good fit for your project, I'll tell you up front and refer you to my favorite talented colleagues.
Reach out and tell me how I can help you attain your goals.
I'm proud to show off a few samples of recent projects. I've been blessed with many great clients who appreciate the value of good design and thoughtful communication.
I am always available for a quick chat! Please call or email – I'd like to hear what you have in the works and discuss how I can be of help.

PARALLEL STRUCTURE II
Ewa Głowacka (1988) is an artist from Wroclaw interested in graphic design, infographics, open workshops and DIY (Do It Yourself) projects. She has been associated with the independent culture for many years and in her short but intense career she has collaborated with different organisations. Since 2011, she is part of the print collective SITO CRK (now SITWA), which is an open screen-print studio where they conduct workshops, meetings, exhibitions, and execute graphic commissions.
As she explains "the aim of the Parallel Structure II is to establish a dialogue with the representatives of independent culture from Pilsen. The basis of the project are meetings and interviews with cultural activists from Plzen. I perceive them as a chance to speak frankly and openly on the subject of influence and effects of ECoC". In other words, Głowacka wants to evaluate the imprint of the ECoC in the independent culture scene now that the time has passed, "when emotions have subsided, people who were involved could rest and critics took some distance".
"The meetings will be summarized in the form of zine/mini-publication; a subjective archive created collaboratively and made by recorded interviews, maps, thoughts, infographics based on information and photographs from participants. This kind of visualisation will make the analysis easier to look at from the distance". Indeed, this project will be her "next step in my infographic exploration", a field in where her master thesis was focused on and a subject in which she has been deepening, improving and developing.
"I wonder how the structure of the artistic community in Pilsen looks like, if it's similar to the one in Wroclaw, and if we have some points in common. What we can learn from them and what they can draw from us".
This residency program is made possible thanks to the support of our Polish partner A-i-R Wro.


One of the perks of attending Southern Connecticut State University is it's inexpensive tuition. Because Southern is so inexpensive, the dream of becoming a college graduate is much more accessible to a bigger variety of people. However, come fall it's all going to change. It was just announced that SCSU will be doubling its tution come fall. And nobody's happy about that.
Right now, to be a commuter student at Southern the cost of tuition is $8,981.00 a year. For residents, the cost of room and board varies. It can range from an extra three to four thousand, depending on where you're living and how many roommates you have. Compared to other schools, such as Quinnipiac University, which for an undergraduate education is about $55,000 dollars a year for both room and board and going there. Needless to say, SCSU is the better pick for someone's pocketbook. However with this new tuition increase, Southern's tuition will be about $16,000 for commuters, and $24,000 for residents. For those who already have a hard time paying their tuition, these new numbers can get you where it hurts. College is expensive, especially when you think about the additional costs of books, supplies, printing, and other necessities that students need. Whoever said that education was the biggest investment that you can ever make obviously didn't realize how deep inside their pockets some have to go to pay for their education.
With all of this mayhem going on, we wonder why there's an increase of tuition. Some say its because of all of the campuswide projects going on, ranging from the renovations of the Buley library to the new Science building, which are both set to be open next year. Others say that Southern wants to use that money to build new projects, such as a medical school, and a law school. Another rumor is that they are putting a Starbucks kiosk in the student center. Although there are many speculations, there has been no definite answer as to what the cause is for the sudden increase of tuition.
Whatever the reason is, Southern students don't want to hear it. "I'm going to be senior next year-those new improvements to campus will not even pertain to me", says disgruntled Southern student Amelia Young. However, come July we all will be crying on our way to the Bursar's office.

Interview: The Investor Case for Mandatory Human Rights Due...
Interview: The Investor Case for Mandatory Human Rights Due Diligence
BHRRC speaks to Sara Blackwell from the Investor Alliance for Human Rights and Lauren Compere from Boston Asset Management about why investors are supporting mandatory due diligence.
Listen to interview
Business-related human rights abuses persists on a daily basis from workers producing our clothes and food exposed to severe exploitation, to indigenous communities dispossessed of their lands and livelihoods to make way for agribusiness, mining - or even renewable energy projects. Despite some leading companies taking action to improve conditions in their supply chains, voluntary action is largely proving to be ineffective. The 2019 Corporate Human Rights Benchmark found that almost half (49%) of companies assessed scored zero on all due diligence indicators. Advocates for human rights have long been turning to enforceable regulation to raise the bar - and they are now joined by a growing call from investors for mandatory measures on corporate respect for human rights.
On 25 November, a significant number of investors released a statement calling on governments to develop, implement, and enforce mandatory human rights due diligence requirements for all companies headquartered or operating within their own jurisdictions or, where appropriate, to further strengthen these regulatory regimes where they already exist.
Eniko Horvath from BHRRC spoke to Sara Blackwell, Associate Director of the Investor Alliance for Human Rights, and Lauren Compere, Director of Shareowner Engagement at Boston Common Asset Management and one of the signatories to the statement, about why investors are supporting mandatory human rights due diligence regulation.
The full statement can be accessed on The Investor Alliance for Human Rights' website and all institutional investors are welcome to sign on by completing this form. The latest news and thought leadership on the momentum towards due diligence laws is available on BHRRC's Mandatory Due Diligence portal.
This interview was made possible thanks to funding from Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ).

Q: TSQL count rows for group by I need the count of rows after the group by.
SELECT COUNT(CheckNumber)
FROM myTable
WHERE Status = 'Good'
GROUP BY CheckNumber

Results:
Row 1 = 1
Row 2 = 15
Row 3 = 5

I also tried using DISTINCT
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT CheckNumber)
FROM myTable
WHERE Status = 'Good'
GROUP BY CheckNumber

Results:
Row 1 = 1
Row 2 = 1
Row 3 = 1

I want the results to be 3

A: It seems to me the GROUP BY is entirely redundant based on what you say you want. Why not just:
SELECT COUNT(distinct CheckNumber)
FROM myTable
WHERE Status = 'Good'

A: If I understand correctly you could do this:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM
(
   SELECT COUNT(CheckNumber)
   FROM myTable
   WHERE Status = 'Good'
   GROUP BY CheckNumber
) as myData

This should give you your total of 3 as requested.
