Les Misérables, Homeland and Ben Affleck win big at Golden Globes
By Glamour
Ben Affleck, Damian Lewis and Hugh Jackman were among the evening's big winners at last night's Golden Globes. Despite missing out on a Best Director Oscar nomination, Affleck scooped the coveted gong at last night's Globes for his film Argo about an Iranian hostage plot. Thanking his wife Jennifer Garner in an emotional speech, Affleck said: "I want to thank my wife who is the reason why I'm standing here... I adore you. I love you so much. Thanks for sitting through this. You are my everything. Thank you." Best actor in a drama went to Daniel Day-Lewis for his role in the biopic Lincoln, while Jessica Chastain bagged the best actress in a drama for Zero Dark Thirty.
Les Misérables was another of the night's successes, scooping Best Film Musical or Comedy, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress in a Musical or comedy for Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway, respectively. The best actress in a musical or comedy category was won by Cooper's co-star in Silver Linings Playbook, Jennifer Lawrence. On accepting her award, the 22-year-old Hunger Games star thanked producer Harvey Weinstein for "killing whoever you had to kill to get me up here". Among the accolades for Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained, which won the Best Screenplay award, it also saw Christoph Waltz honoured in the Best Supporting Actor in a drama category. Meanwhile, in the TV categories, Homeland once again swept the board bagging Best TV Drama, Best Actor for Damian Lewis and Best Actress for Claire Danes. Lena Dunham's hit series Girls was also honoured, winning Best Comedy TV series, while Maggie Smith scooped the Best Supporting Actress award for her role as Lady Grantham in Downton Abbey.

6M Verizon Customers' Personal Information Put at Risk
MCALLEN – Verizon Wireless is doing damage control after six million customers' personal information was put at risk.
CHANNEL 5 NEWS learned from a cyber security expert that hackers can steal your identity with less personal information than you think.
Lenin Miranda is an ex-dancer. Before moving to the Rio Grande Valley, he performed with superstars like M.C. Hammer and Janet Jackson.
In 2004, he decided to leave his hometown of Detroit for the Rio Grande Valley. That same year he became a Verizon customer. He said he's now a little nervous.
"It's kind of crazy because a lot of people use the same codes. So, yeah, it's kind of nerve-racking about that. I'm kind of worried about that, so I'm going to call Verizon when I get done working today," said Miranda.
He's nervous because Thursday it was announced personal information of six million Verizon customers was put at risk. Verizon said the phone numbers and pin security codes were placed online and open to external access.
Ray Mendoza, a cyber security expert and former FBI intelligence analyst, said that's all a hacker needs to steal your identity. "On the surface, as you say, a phone number and a PIN may not seem like much, but I will tell you with just a phone number it would be fairly easy to do a reverse phone number search and find out the name and address of who owns that phone number," Mendoza said.
Mendoza explained equipped with that information, a cyber thief could order phones, ad phone services and charge them to the customer's account. He said hackers could use this information to create a greater profile of the customer.
"The Verizon dataset with some other dataset that existed in the past and they start to build a bigger picture, and before you know it that can very easily turn into a full blown identity theft. Someone pretending to be you, someone taking loans under your name," Mendoza explained.
We reached out to Verizon. They sent us a statement that reads in part:
An employee of one of our vendors put information into a cloud storage area and incorrectly set the storage to allow external access. We have been able to confirm that the only access to the cloud storage area by a person other than Verizon or its vendor was a researcher who brought this issue to our attention... There has been no loss or theft of Verizon or Verizon customer information.
Mendoza stated to be safe he recommends all Verizon customers immediately change their PIN codes, especially if they use that PIN for multiple services. Mendoza also said customers can subscribe to a credit monitoring service to better protect their identities.

Celestial jellyfish – messengers of aliens? A mass loss of livestock in the UK is associated with their appearance
In 2014, a series of strange events took place in the English county of Shropshire. On June 17, in the sky above the farming village of Chetwynd, several people observed an object that looked like a jellyfish with a dome consisted of a whitish-blue substance. Thin, long "tentacles" or rays stretched down for tens of meters.
This UFO was in sight for only a few seconds, after which it made several movements and began to flicker until it completely disappeared from view.
Three days later, residents of neighboring settlements also began to report a similar creature in the sky. The rumor about the mysterious phenomenon grew rapidly, but a month later no one remembered about it. The UFO did not reappear until September 7 of that year.
Shropshire farmer Phil Hole, 53, said he found 12 dead sheep one morning. All animals were missing internal organs, although there were no injuries on the body, with the exception of two holes in the frontal part of the head and on the left side of the belly. The size of the holes did not exceed 1 centimeter in diameter. Naturally, criminologists and the police arrived at the scene of the crime.
The result of the autopsy showed that there was practically no blood left in the bodies of the dead sheep. She was literally kicked out. In addition, in an absolutely incomprehensible way, many of the internal organs, including the heart and brain, were removed. In the bones of animals, many minerals were absent – zinc, calcium, potassium, magnesium, because of this they were blackened and very fragile. The conclusion of the experts turned out to be unambiguous – the sheep were injured by a high-tech method. How exactly is unknown.
It should be noted that such cases of detection of cattle killed in this way are not uncommon. For example, in the 70s of the last century there was a real boom among farmers in the United States, Mexico and South America. In those days, hundreds of cattle died a similar death. All attempts to accuse Satanists of torturing animals have failed. Any examination was faced with the fact that it could not explain the method of extracting blood, minerals from the skin and bones, as well as the organs of cows, llamas, sheep and horses.
Phil Hole decided to look into the situation himself after the police failed to find the perpetrators. The farmer began to collect information and communicate with neighbors – maybe someone saw something. And as it turns out, they did. At around 4:00 a.m., a local postman watched two jellyfish-like objects fly out of the woods. They stopped over a barn with sheep and literally flew into the building through the roof. The man saw nothing else.
Jellyfish UFO.
Colleagues in misfortune began to turn to Phil Hole. It turned out that across the UK in 2014, more than 250 animals died inexplicably. Farmers even turned to the government with a request to do something about this situation.
The last such incident occurred on October 30, 2014 in Wales. Since then, the UK is no longer feverish from the unexplained loss of livestock.
Local ufologists believe that aliens are the culprit. With the help of their probes, they collect biomaterial for any purpose. If so, then the postman could indeed have seen the attack on the livestock with his own eyes.
But for farmers, the fact that a potential culprit is found does not make it any easier. They will not receive any compensation for their sacrifices.

BarbaraSher.com • View topic - Plate Spinners...What's working for you?!
Any plate spinner scanners want to share what's working for them now? For me, I've always, always been a plate spinner and I know I thrive like that, long before I read Refuse to Choose.
My issue is the last few years have been HADES for us as a family, so my burnout is pretty high...which makes it tough to even get out of bed, workout and shower without needing a nap, let alone doing my normal plate spinning ways. BUT that feeling of "dying on the vine" is absolutely there, and just makes the burnout feeling even worse!
I know 3-4 projects/"hats to wear" is ideal for me, especially work-wise. I'm an entrepreneur so that already means wearing a lot of "sub hats" so too many business projects is too much, but I just can't shake that "dying on the vine" feeling!!
Any ideas? What's working for you as a plate spinner?
Re: Plate Spinners...What's working for you?!
Hello, fellow Plate Spinner! When everything around me is falling to pieces, I try to switch to spinning paper plates: generating ideas and writing them up, while I do real work on just one project at a time.
Alex, what a wonderful way to put it! I think sometimes my "Paper plates" end up being counting life stuff, like running dreaded errands that must be done, as "big action" even when they don't always feel like it. Especially at times when I'm not at my usual "high caliber" self.
I'm not a scanner, but I can identify with family issues and burnout.
For my two cents, be really kind to yourself. You're not dying on the vine - you're just hibernating. Spring will come again. I like Alex's comment about spinning paper plates. Do as much or as little scanning as feels comfortable. Maybe a tiny scanner-type burst every now and then if you can manage it - just to know you're still in the game.
It makes me wonder if there's some medical reason for what's going on, in addition to the family issues. I've had mornings exactly like that, and on a few of those I didn't get up from that nap until the afternoon, and did I mention these were work days?
Whether healthy or not, it sounds like there's a great deal of stress in your life. Remember that working out also puts stress on your body, and maybe it's too much for you right now. Do your workouts invigorate you? Or do they wear you out even more? If the latter, you might consider switching to a less strenuous workout, swimming instead of jogging, for example. Or consider shorter workouts and put that extra time toward more sleep if that would work for you.
IMHO there are good doctors and bad doctors, and, more to the point, there are doctors who are compatible with you and some who aren't. I truly disliked my doctor, and I realized that, as I was getting a bit more mature (ahem) ,things were likely to go wrong with my body, and I needed a doctor I could talk to.
A friend recommended the doctor I have now. yes, she's good. I prefer a natural approach - herbals, acupuncture, etc., and she's comfortable with it. And sometimes natural doesn't work, and that's when I need an MD.
My wife's primary care doctor is amazingly good. But my wife still suffers while all the tests come back negative.
Here's to good things happening, Square Peg, for your wife to be free of pain, and for my hip to be fixed.
Ashlee, Your post had so much enthusiasm to it. Just the topic - plate spinner - sounds so high energy, I imagine the juggler running around keeping all those plates on top of their poles. I hope your energy is back, you're over your burnout, and you're spinning stuff. That's what I'm hoping.

Q: ¿Cómo puedo truncar la parte horaria de un datetime? Tengo una columna DATETIME con horas, minutos y segundos, por ejemplo:
SELECT GETDATE()

2020-07-22 20:57:15.983

Y a los efectos de las consultas que necesito realizar, me resultaría mucho más cómodo que este dato solo tenga información de la fecha. ¿Como convertir entonces un DATETIME a una fecha sin hora pero manteniendo el tipo de dato?

A: Hasta versión 2008 de Sql Server, solo disponíamos del tipo DATETIME por lo que "truncar" la parte horaria de una columna había que hacerla, por ejemplo así:
select DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, getdate()), 0)

Este un método un poco extraño de leer pero sumamente efectivo y rápido. Obtenemos la diferencia en días desde el día 0 y el actual y sumamos esa cantidad al día 0, que en el caso de SQL Server es el 01-01-1900, esto "elimina" la parte horaria de cualquier fecha.
Otro de los métodos clásicos es pasar por un VARCHAR formateado sin la hora y luego volverlo a convertir en un DATETIME:
SELECT CONVERT(DATETIME, CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 120) , 120)

A partir de la versión antes mencionada, disponemos del tipo de dato DATE por lo que también podemos hacer esto:
SELECT CONVERT(DATETIME, CONVERT(DATE, GETDATE()))

Para más información:

*

*Best approach to remove time part of datetime in SQL Server

*Most efficient way in SQL Server to get date from date+time?

A: Una manera más estándar de lograrlo es utilizar la función cast() para convertir a Date  y luego de vuelta a DateTime:
select cast(cast(getdate() as date) as datetime)

Desde mi punto de vista es preferible escribirlo de esta forma porque la función cast() está soportada en un gran número de motores, y la tendencia es a que cada vez la soporten más.
Otra forma de lograr el resultado podría ser convertir el valor a un número de coma flotante, valiéndose del hecho que internamente la fecha se almacena de esta forma, quitarle los decimales, por ejemplo utilizando la función floor() y convertirlo de nuevo a DateTime:
select cast(floor(cast(getdate() as float)) as datetime)

Esto funcionará en sql-server, oracle, firebird y otros motores que internamente almacenan la fecha como números de coma flotante.

A: yo tenía el mismo problema y lo que hice fue que lo trunqué de esta manera y solo me muestra día y mes:
FORMAT (date, 'dd-MM')

Pristimantis zophus is a species of frog in the family Strabomantidae. It is endemic to Colombia and is only known from the eastern slopes of the northern Cordillera Central in the Antioquia Department. The specific name is derived from Greek zophus, meaning "darkness" or "gloom". It refers to the drab coloration of this frog, as well as its habit of becoming active after the sunset.

Description
Adult males measure  and adult females  in snout–vent length. The head is as broad as the body in males but narrower in females. The snout is rounded in females, but in males it is subacuminate in the dorsal view. The tympanum is round. The fingers and the toes have discs and lateral keels but no webbing. Skin is smooth. Coloration of most individuals is in shades of brown with darker markings, but the ground color may also be pale cream-grey. The iris is reticulated with black and either very pale green, or pale brassy color above with red horizontal streak and gray below.

Habitat and conservation
Pristimantis zophus occurs along streams inside primary or secondary forest or forest edge at elevations of  above sea level. It can also occur in coffee plantations and along road sides. It is nocturnal and usually encountered perched on very low vegetation, no more than  above the ground. Development is direct, without free-living larval stage.

Pristimantis zophus is common within its relatively small range. It is threatened by agriculture, livestock, mining and the cultivation of illegal crops. It has been recorded in the Distrito de Manejo Integrado Cuchilla Jardin Tamesis, a regional protected area.

Q: JS Split ( ) to check if substring exists in Array I have an array of products that are stored as Strings in this format productname:quantity. The issue I am running into is that if a user adds one product with a quantity of x it is inserted into the array as it should. However, if they then decide to add more of a particular product a new entry is made into the array instead of checking if the product already exists and adjusting the quantity to the new value. oldQty + newQty.
For example this is my array:
["CBL202659/A:1","OUTER9:1","PALLET CARDS:1"]

If I add another PALLET CARDS product it creates a new entry rather than updating the quantity of the existing item to 2.
New array
["CBL202659/A:1","OUTER9:1","PALLET CARDS:1","PALLET CARDS:1"]

I would like the array to end up like this: - updating the quantity
["CBL202659/A:1","OUTER9:1","PALLET CARDS:2"]

Currently this is my code:
I use the split() method to seperate the String where a colon occurs and store the product name and quantity in two seperate variables.
$(".orderBtn").click(function(event){

        //Show the order Box
        $(".order-alert").show();
        event.preventDefault();

        //Create the Array
        var productArray = [];

        //Get reference to the product clicked
        var stockCode = $(this).closest('li').find('.stock_code').html();
        //Get reference to the quantity selected
        var quantity = $(this).closest('li').find('.order_amount').val();
        var item = stockCode + ":" + quantity;
        var itemCheck = stockCode + ":";

        if(quantity == 0){
            console.log("Quantity must be greater than 0")
        }else{
            //If no Cookie exists, create one and add the Array
            if ($.cookie('order_cookie') === undefined) {
                console.log("CREATE NEW COOKIE");
                //Add items to Array
                productArray.push(item);
                //Add Array to Cookie
                $.cookie('order_cookie', JSON.stringify(productArray), { expires: 1, path: '/' });

            //If the Cookie already exists do this
            } else {
                productArray = JSON.parse($.cookie('order_cookie'));//get ref to array

                if(productArray.indexOf(itemCheck)!= -1){//It exists so update qty
                console.log("EXISTS... updating item: " + itemCheck);
                            //var index = productArray.indexOf(item);
                            //var update = productArray[index].split(":");
                            //var name = update[0];
                            //var oldQty = update[1];
                            //console.log(name + ":" + oldQty);
                            //productArray[index] = item;
                }else{//It does not exist, so add to array
                console.log("Does not exist... adding new item: " + item);
                 //Append items onto the Array
                 productArray.push(item);
                }

                //Update the Cookie
                $.cookie('order_cookie', JSON.stringify(productArray), { expires: 1, path: '/' });
                console.log($.cookie('order_cookie'));
            }

            //Display the number of items in the Array in the Order Box
            $('#order_counter').html(productArray.length);
        }
    });

I suppose the real question I am asking here, is if it is possible to search the array for a subString - containing productname: ??
After taking on board some of the answers and advice I've slightly modified how I am structuring my array.
However I am running into issues regarding the name value pair.
Step 1: Get references to the stockCode and Quantity
            //Create the Array
        var productArray = [];
        //Get reference to the product clicked
        var stockCode = $(this).closest('li').find('.stock_code').html();
        //Get reference to the quantity selected
        var quantity = $(this).closest('li').find('.order_amount').val();

print them in console to make sure they are correct
PALLET CARDS
2

Step 2: Insert them into the Array
    productArray.push({stockCode:quantity});

print them to make sure they are correct - NO - Problem here...
[Object]
0: Object
stockCode: "2"    <---------------------- Should be PALLET CARDS: "2"
__proto__: Object
length: 1
__proto__: Array[0]

A: Try with:
var input  = ["CBL202659/A:1","OUTER9:1","PALLET CARDS:1","PALLET CARDS:1"],
    dict   = {},
    output = [];

for (var i = 0; i < input.length; i++) {
  var parts = input[i].split(':');
  if (dict[parts[0]] == undefined) {
    dict[parts[0]] = 0;
  }

  dict[parts[0]] += +parts[1];
}

for (var key in dict) {
  output.push([key, dict[key]].join(':'));
}

Output:
["CBL202659/A:1", "OUTER9:1", "PALLET CARDS:2"]

However, as Niet the Dark Absol mentioned, you should end up with dict object which looks like:
Object {CBL202659/A: 1, OUTER9: 1, PALLET CARDS: 2}

and gives you more power to work.

A: instead of this:
  var item = stockCode + ":" + quantity;
  var itemCheck = stockCode + ":";
  ...

just do this:
EDIT: Also to check if stock exists already I think this will work...
function checkCode() {
    for (var i=0; i<productArray.length;i++) {
         if (p[i].stockcode==stockCode) {
            p[i].amount+= parseInt(quantity)
        }
    }

}

if (!checkCode()) productArray.push({ stockcode: stockCode, amount:parseInt(quantity)});

If you decide to stay with your original string array.. this could work for you:
var pArray = ["CBL202659/A:1","OUTER9:1","PALLET CARDS:1"];

for (var i =0; i<pArray.length;i++) {
    var code =  pArray[i].split(":")[0];
    var amount = parseInt(pArray[i].split(":")[1]);

    if (code==stockCode) {
        // code already exists
        amount += parseInt(quantity);
        pArray[i] = code+":"+amount;
    }
}

and then use this in a function like the example above..

Cargo Under Sail: COMAM coffee "Climate Alliance"
What? The coffee from where? Sailing to where? Okay, let's start from the beginning…
More than 20 years ago, the environmental organization Serraniagua was born in the Colombian high-mountain village of El Cairo. Since then, it has worked tirelessly for the local rural, indigenous, Afro-Colombian and other-than-human communities. On the other side of the
Atlantic Ocean Serraniagua has a committed ally in the Austrian NGO, 'Climate Alliance Vorarlberg' which is collaborating with social and environmental organizations in Colombia's Chocó region for more than two decades. In 2016 this partnership started to support the environmental and coffee-production programs of the local 'Young Campesino Network'. The aim is to strengthen shade-coffee farmers who adopt low-impact, biodiversity-friendly farming methods and practices to mitigate the impact of climate change on the production and quality of their crops.
This transatlantic alliance is now trying to establish better income for Serraniagua's COMAM (COMunidad AMbientalista) coffee producers by forging a direct connection between producers and consumers. Disconnected from speculations of the international stock exchange, they will pay a fair price including significant premiums for forest protection and organic production.
But for what all this effort for environmental issues if then the exportation would be operated by the same extremely polluting carrying business as any other coffee? Couldn't this long-distance transport be driven mainly by renewable energies?
The idea sounded a little crazy at first. But today we can proudly confirm that the COMAM coffee, produced in the farms of Don Carlos and
Don Cesar in El Cairo is crossing the Atlantic Ocean in the hold of an old sailing ship. Far from crazy, given the tremendous impact of international cargo shipping and aviation in terms of climate change and other toxic emissions, the sailing ship "Tres Hombres" from the Dutch company Fairtransport represents one of numerous positive alternatives to change practices and make the world a better place to live. And, in early June, when the COMAM coffee arrives in Europe, five volunteers will carry it from Holland to Austria by another wonderful, low-impact transportation method – cargo bicycles!
It's a beautiful transatlantic labor between tireless actors working for a better future. Thanks to Fairtransport and the whole Tres Hombres crew for making this story come true!
You can follow the tour of COMAM coffee on Facebook and Twitter @Klimabohne on Tour

Appalachian hosts Elon at approxiamately 4:30pm Saturday afternoon in a game that will have tiebreaker implications as far the SoCon tournament goes. Realizing this is only the third conference game for both teams this season, both teams know each game between divisional opponents has been critical the last several years. Both teams stand 1-1 in the conference standings and could really use a win for confidence. A 2-1 conference record looks and feels a lot better than 1-2. This is the first home conference game of the season for Appalachian. Elon will be playing their second conference road game.
Elon has been playing like team that prefers a slower pace and does a really good job of taking care of the basketball. Yes, Elon averages close to 70 points per game, but have only managed 54.5 points per contest in two conference games. The Phoenix have also only committed twelve turnovers in each conference game, against Charleston and Georgia Southern, both members of the Southern Division. Elon has used the same starting lineup in all but two games, and are led by forward Lucas Troutman and sharp shooting guard Jack Isenbarger. Troutman averages 14.9 points and 5.7 rebounds per game. Isenbarger averages scoring 14.6 per game, and leads the team in three pointers and free throws made. Sebaston Koch is also deadly from three point range shooting 44.6% behind the arc while also snagging 4.9 rebounds per game.
For Appalachian, the season has slowly turned around for the positive. Part of that turn around is having their starting point guard back in Mike Neal. Even though Neal has not put up monster numbers, the team has a better chemistry with him in the game. Neal has averaged 7.6 points and 3.8 assists per game. Tevin Baskin has been turning it up the level play as well in the last few games. He has seen increased playing time and has pushed his averaged to 9.5 points per game. Nathan Healy has continued to shoot well from all points on the floor. Healy is a 55% shooter from the field, 44% three point shooter and 88% free throw shooter. Jay Canty continues to lead the team in scoring at 15.6 points per game, but has fallen off recently while he battles a sore thumb.
We are guessing the spread to be somewhere in the 3.5 to 6 point range in favor of Elon. The Phoenix has a much higher RPI, and defeated South Carolina, while the Mountaineers fell just short. However, Elon has not won in Boone since 2007, and is 2-13 all time in Boone. Appalachian played perhaps its best game of the season last year in a 15 point home win over the Phoenix. We will update in the morning on the actual number. Appalachian is still the only undefeated team against the spread in college basketball at 8-0 on the season. Our picks are 7-1 on the season.
12:18 AM UPDATE: Elon opens as a 1.5 point favorite. We had some slight premonitions that we were off in this game, and that we could be looking at a pick'em. However, Appalachian at +1.5 at home, where Elon has only won twice in fifteen previous attempts, seems pretty fair. An easy play would be to buy 0.5 points down on the Apps to ensure a push. We will update our play in the morning once Vegas has time to change they line if they seem necessary.
Appalachian trailed by as many as 12 points in the first half, but rallied for their second straight SoCon win in a 80-70 victory over Elon. The Phoenix started the game with everything falling. At one point, they had hit seven of their first nine shots to take a quick twelve point lead. In fact Elon led by twelve points on three different occasions in the first half, at 21-9, 29-17 and 31-19. Appalachian went on a 15-3 run to end the half, and tie the score a 34.
The second half was tight early on, but Appalachian eventually stretched the lead out on the back of its superb three point shooting. Five different Mountaineers combined to hit ten threes. Nathan Healy and Mike Neal each hit three apiece. Neal hit every one of his attempts. Appalachian finished with five players in double figures, led by Healy's 22 points, 8 rebounds and four steals. Tevin Baskin came off the bench and continued his strong play with 16 points and 10 rebounds. Mike Neal added 17 points and three assists. Tab Hamilton added ten points, but his best work was done on Elon star Jack Isenbarger, who was held to nine points, making only one three pointer. Ryley Beaumont has the game of his life, hitting 11/13 shots for 26 points while grabbing nine rebounds.
Appalachian has now won four straight games and five of six. Even more impressive, Appalachian has now covered in all of its lined games this season. Eventually oddsmakers will figure out Appalachian, currently 9-0 against the spread. Our pick was correct again and we have improved to 8-1 on the season. Greensboro is next at home and Appalachian will most likely be favored against the struggling Spartans, who are 3-11 on the season, and 0-2 in SoCon play. We believe Appalachian will be favored by 3 to 5 points. As usual, we will update the line in the morning.


It turned out to be a weekend of ups and downs for Team Peugeot Hansen at the 2017 FIA World Rallycross Championship's sixth clash at Hell, Norway. But Sébastien Loeb turned the tide to earn the PEUGEOT 208 WRX 2017's fourth top-three result of the season.
A complex start to Round 6 in Norway saw the two PEUGEOT 208 WRX 2017s trade their latest evolution engines for former specification versions as a precautionary measure after one of its parameters failed to match expectations. The switch came after Friday's free practice run in the case of Timmy's car and on Saturday for Sébastien.
Timmy Hansen's run nearly ended during Q3 when he smashed into a concrete wall on the session's first lap. He escaped unhurt but his PEUGEOT 208 WRX sustained significant front-end damage. Excellent work by Team Peugeot Hansen's mechanics got the car back into shape in time for Q4, however, and their efforts were rewarded when Timmy qualified for the final!
Three days after passing his end-of-school exams, Kevin Hansen posted some superb results in his PEUGEOT 208 WRX 2016. He came sixth in Q1, then fourth in Q4 to equal his best-ever qualifying result to date (at Lohéac, France, in 2016).
With the first half of the 2017 now behind it, Team Peugeot Hansen is second in the provisional Teams' standings ahead of the next round on the Hansen family's home turf at Höljes, Sweden, on July 1-2.

Digi partners Hospital Sultanah Maliha and CREST to pilot Malaysia's first 5G connected ambulance in Langkawi
LANGKAWI, 17 JANUARY 2020 – Digi Telecommunications Sdn Bhd (Digi) announced its partnership with Hospital Sultanah Maliha in Langkawi and Collaborative Research In Engineering, Science & Technology (CREST) to pilot the first 5G connected ambulance in Malaysia to enable real-time medical data transfers between paramedics and the hospital.
The continuous streaming of patient data from when the paramedics arrive on scene, right up to delivering the patient at the hospital will create improved patient care experiences and better life-enhancing outcomes for patients.
Demonstrating the use case at Hospital Sultanah Maliha Langkawi, paramedics performed a live simulation of how a patient's vital signs such as ECG readings and ultrasound scans are taken while en-route to the hospital in a 5G connected ambulance. This critical medical information, which is often in gigabyte sizes, are then transmitted in real-time to a doctor in the hospital's Emergency and Trauma Department, for immediate diagnosis and in preparation for the patients' arrival at the emergency ward.
This showcase is part of Digi's use case in the 5G Demonstration Project (5GDP), undertaken by the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to facilitate, develop and foster 5G use cases in a live but controlled environment.
Digi's Chief Technology Officer, Kesavan Sivabalan says the use case underscores the impact 5G technology can bring in advancing key industry verticals such as digital healthcare. "Gigabytes of medical data can now be transferred at super speed to multiple devices during emergencies. This is a key development in enabling remote healthcare monitoring and diagnosis. It also means that healthcare can be accessed by all, even those in hard-to-reach areas. We will continue to trial use cases such as this with the view to enable these solutions and benefits across more verticals," Kesavan says.
Hospital Sultanah Maliha Director Dr. Mansor Ismail says, "Our doctors can now potentially improve emergency medical care response times. Through this technology, our doctors can achieve a higher level of accuracy in diagnosing their patients and this is especially critical in emergency healthcare where time is of the essence. We recognise how this medical technology has the potential to transform the face of healthcare and look forward to implement this across more hospitals in the near future."
Collaborative Research In Engineering, Science & Technology (CREST) Chief Executive Officer Jaffri Ibrahim says, "CREST is all for supporting innovation in healthcare to address the challenges that medical professionals may face with the aim of improving digital healthcare. We are excited to partner Digi and Hospital Sultanah Maliha to continue to provide effective and accessible healthcare solutions to Malaysians."
Digi currently has two 5G live sites on the island – at the Langkawi International Airport and Hospital Sultanah Maliha. The 5G mobile base station located at the hospital compound operates on a spectrum of 3.4-3.5GHz (C-band) of 100MHz bandwidth with a speed of 1.2Gbps.
Digi is also continuously facilitating new 5G use case tests at the 5G OpenLab space in Cyberjaya, an incubator space for businesses, academics and developers. The 5G OpenLab aims to build and nurture the development of a potential 5G ecosystem in a live but controlled environment with the goal of identifying more viable use cases that has the potential to better the community.

Wordle ends up saving an 80-year-old woman's life who was held hostage for 17 hours
Wordle has emerged as quite an addictive game recently but it's proving to us that it's more than just that after potentially saving the life of an 80-year-old woman. According to Times Now News, the elderly woman, Denyse Holt, had been held hostage for 17 hours in her own home. Her daughter grew suspicious when her mother did not send her completed Wordle to her.
Holt, the resident of the Lincolnwood neighborhood in Chicago was fast asleep when a knife-wielding, naked intruder broke into her home in the middle of the night. He threatened to "cut her" if she made any loud noises or calls for help. Eventually, the intruder asked her to help warm him up in a bath before locking her in the basement bathroom of her house without any medication or food.

Wordle game helps save 80-year-old Illinois woman from hostage situation after not returning text – ABC13 Houston https://t.co/B1LODTGx5w
— Mayra Moreno ABC13 (@MayraABC13) February 11, 2022
"I didn't think I was going to live. I was in shock. I was trying to survive," recalled Holt of the terrifying moment as the door of the bathroom had been barricaded with a chair. With no windows to ventilate the bathroom she was in, the woman performed exercises to keep herself warm in the chilly atmosphere. While Holt was struggling to free herself and survive her eldest daughter, Meredith Holt-Caldwell noticed that her mother had not responded to her text messages.
Moreover, the Seattle resident hadn't even received her mother's daily Wordle, something Holt would never miss. Thus, she tried to reach her on the landline but even that went unanswered. She called Holt's neighbors and urged them to check up on her mother but when they arrived at her door, no one answered. However, they noticed that the elderly woman's car was still present in the driveway.
At this point, Meredith informed the police thinking her mom might have collapsed. But when officers arrived at the location they found a broken window on the first floor and visible blood. Cops entered the home and found the victim in the basement and determined that it was a hostage situation. Thankfully, Hold was not hurt.
As officers continued their search, they found the suspect on the second floor of the home. He was armed with several knives and thus authorities had to call in more force after their initial failed arrest attempts. After much effort, they finally managed to subdue him with a stun gun through a hole in the door before taking him into custody. Cops believed that the intruder had been suffering from a mental health crisis which prompted him to do what he did.
He was transferred to a hospital for medical treatment and was charged with multiple felonies including home invasion with a dangerous weapon, aggravated kidnapping while armed with a dangerous weapon, and aggravated assault against a peace officer, reports ABC13. "I never thought in a million years that this was happening, but it was," shared Meredith.

So, you want to get an LTCF (License to Carry Firearms) in Allegheny County.
First, make sure you meet the requirements of getting an LTCF.
Make sure you pay off any outstanding debt owed to the county or city. Sheriff Mullins has denied people for being on a payment plan for tickets. All accounts with the city and county must be paid in full. This is supposed to be unlawful, but it's the way it's done here.
First, get your information ready. You are able to scan and email or copy and mail all of this in. It is important that you have something from each category (primary & secondary). If you have a voter's registration card, it must be one that came in the mail, not the temporary one. You cannot use your DNR Public Shooting Range permit as a secondary. I tried. It didn't work.
NOTE: The primary and secondary identification MUST have the same address on both.
No other forms of identification will be accepted.
If the link is broken, you can find it on the Allegheny County Sheriff's website linked earlier.
Next, fill out the first page of the form.
After a few days, you should receive a yellow post card.
Take this yellow postcard, $20 in a cash, check or money order, and your ID to the Allegheny County Courthouse in Downtown Pittsburgh.
I usually park at the underground lot under Mellon Sq. Park (blue circle). From there, it's a short 3 block walk to the court house (highlighted in yellow). If you have a firearm on your person, or any person with you has one, you should check it at the City County building next door. The courthouse does not have lockers on the premises, but as required by law, has them at the adjacent City County building. When you go over, just tell the guards at the metal detector that you want to check a firearm. They may ask to see that person's LTCF. Now that you're firearm free, enter the courthouse courtyard on one of the side street entrances (marked by black x's) and proceed to the Firearms Office, where you will verify your application, take a photo, pay, and walk out with your shiny new LTCF.

Mount Kelly > Sixth Form
The Sixth Form at Mount Kelly has its own identity whilst still maintaining its place within the supportive and friendly community that is Mount Kelly. During their time in the Sixth Form, pupils are encouraged to branch out and become more independent, but they do so knowing that the necessary support is available as and when they need it.
As pupils move on from GCSE study, they enter a phase of transition and take more responsibility for organising themselves. Classes are smaller, the atmosphere more informal, and teachers expect more initiative and co-operation from them. It sometimes takes time to adapt to this new way of learning, but each pupil will follow a study skills course and will be assigned a specialist Sixth Form tutor who guides his or her tutees through the Sixth Form and provides necessary support during this transition.
Pupils are assigned to Houses and have the academic and pastoral support of their respective Housemaster/mistress, the Sixth Form Coordinator and the Academic and Pastoral Deputy Heads.
The Sixth Form at Mount Kelly encourages pupils to contribute as a member of the whole community. Whether through participation in the wide range of academic and co-curricular opportunities, College or House competitions or leadership roles, every Sixth Former has the opportunity to make a difference.
Our pupils continually astound us with their capacity to achieve academically whilst also demonstrating the commitment to excel in a challenging schedule of events that includes the Ten Tors Challenge, the Devizes to Westminster Canoe Marathon, the Combined Cadet Force and the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme. Being in the Sixth Form is not just all about work!
In addition to the Higher Education and Careers Guidance resource rooms the dedicated Sixth Form Centre provides pupils with a space where they can relax and catch up with friends. As well as keeping this space in good order, pupils are responsible for arranging Sixth Form social evenings and events. These range from energetic events such as Barn Dances and Sumo Wrestling to more cerebral evenings such as 'Movie Night' or a quiz. Everyone's interests are catered for and all the Sixth Form are encouraged to get involved.

ShinMaywa amphibious plane tech for India
New Delhi : An emerging India-Japan military today changed the way Indian Navy and Army will react to future emergencies and military needs at sea.
Japan today agreed to transfer technology for a specialised four-engined sea-plane, the US-2 produced by its company ShinMaywa.
This will be the first military sale for Japan since its self-imposed ban on sale of weapons and military equipment after the World war-II ( 1939 to 1945).
The decision to transfer technology was announced after a summit meeting between Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Japanese counterpart Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. "Both sides directed the Joint Working Group to accelerate progress in the discussions and preparations for a road map for the development of the Indian aircraft industry through US-2 amphibian aircraft cooperation including the transfer of the aircraft and its technology to India," the joint statement said.
Once the plane joins the Indian fleet it will aid rapid induction of troops to tackle threats along the country's 7,516 kms long coast line or in the remote island territories. At present Indian Navy uses warships to send troops to these islands territories most of which are uninhabited.
ShinMaywa's plane has numerous roles and missions that it can accomplish making it a force multiplier and game changer in the Indian Ocean Region. The 47-tonne aircraft, carrying 18 tonnes of load, can take off from, or land on, a 300-metre stretch of water or land, its four giant engines needing just seven seconds to get airborne. It has a range of over 4,500 km, it can patrol areas 1,800 km away, and react to an emergency by landing 30 armed troops.
India and Japan discussed a US-2 sale for the first time in 2011. There are seven US-2 in with the Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force (JMSDS), the name of the Japanese navy.
Though more than 20 countries have shown keenness to buy the US-2, but Japan's Constitution holds it back from warlike activities, including the export of military equipment. In 2011, Japan's cabinet okayed a waiver for India, citing the strategic partnership, to allow the sale of US-2.
Uniquely, the US-2, is the only aircraft in the world that operates in sea state 5 conditions -- wind speed of 30 to 38 kms per hour.
The Indian Navy sees this as an ideal platform to carry out long range logistics support role for Island support operations, casualty evacuation, humanitarian assistance and disaster relief, long range surveillance and reconnaissance carried out by the Indian coast Guard and the Navy.
At the summit today the Indian side showed its intention to strengthen defence equipment and technology cooperation and conveyed its interests in this regard.
Both sides expressed their desire to further promote bilateral and multilateral cooperation on maritime issues and the next maritime exercise between Coast Guards of the two countries is slated for October 2014.

We are so excited you are thinking about what might be next in your journey of loving God, connecting with others, and reaching the world. We are here to help you! If you want to take a step that's not on this page, just talk with a pastor and we can work together to find what might be a good next step for you.
We often read in the Bible about the importance of loving one another, caring for one another, confessing to one another, and praying for one another; this is exactly what we have designed our Small Groups to be. Our Small Groups are a great place to get connected to others at Fairmount Wesleyan. Each time you meet you can expect to catch up with one another's weeks, eating some kind of snack or meal, and praying for each other. If there's time we will discuss that week's sermon and how we can apply it to our lives.
In our Welcome Center, you'll find an up-to-date listing of times and places each Small Group is meeting.
Did you know the Bible says the Bible is confusing? It does! Just check out 2 Peter 3:16. Because of this, we've set up our Sunday school classes to be a place to learn more about what the Bible teaches and how it intersects our lives. Our classes focus on either teaching through the books of the Bible or a biblical approach to a topic like prayer or marriage.
Every March, June, September, and December we begin a new offering of the books and subjects being covered. To find out what the current offerings are, just head to the Welcome Center where all of that information is available or click here.
Maybe you're the type of person who is thinking, "Sure Sunday school and Small Groups sound nice, but where do I get to actually serve the people of Fairmount?" That's awesome! Your heart is right in line with us. Throughout the year we try to reach out into our community and serve them however we can. We always have some big outreach on the horizon and many other opportunities to serve.
If you want to get involved check out our Welcome Center for how we're reaching out next!
Throughout the year we offer other opportunities to grow deeper in your love for God. Visiting the Welcome Center is a great way to see the latest listings of Bible studies, prayer services, and other ministries we have going on.


Resource Center Created For New Windows OS - InternetNews.
Microsoft fans looking to scope out the next version of Windows can do so on online resource center DevX.com Inc beginning Monday.
Dubbed Whistler, the pending version of the popular operating system can be given a test drive at the new Whistler-Savvy Developer Center where articles, discussion groups led by experts, downloads and more are featured to help developers become acquainted with the new OS. There is also the all-too-important "Report A Bug" section for those developers to work on pesky quirks in the system.
Created in tandem Microsoft's Windows Desktop Evangelism Group, the Whistler-Savvy Developer Center allows developers to give feedback to Microsoft about the beta version and their experiences with it, which is key for the software giant in determining how to please its users in a climate where Linux is growing steadily more popular.
David Ohara, manager of PC Experience Evangelism for Microsoft, said getting developers up to speed about Whistler will help them create a better product and most likely speed its adoption.
"Access to this crucial developer audience is imperative -- not only for their feedback about the new operating system, but also because they will lead the migration to it," O'Hara said.
The Whistler-Savvy center is not the first site DevX and the software giant have worked on together. DevX also ushered in a demo site built for Microsoft's messaging platform, Exchange 2000® in October.

Q: How to process samba full_audit logs in to logstash I have been working on taking my samba vfs full_audit logs and processing them with grok and moving them on to an ELK stack.
I have added the following to my global samba conf:
    full_audit:prefix = %u|%U|%I|%m|%S|%T|%D
    full_audit:success = mkdir rename unlink rmdir pwrite
    full_audit:failure = connect
    full_audit:facility = local1
    full_audit:priority = NOTICE INFO

So I have logs which come out something like:
    Oct 30 20:22:04 localhost smbd[27520]: stock|stock|192.168.0.6|HOSTNAME|adminstorage|2014/10/30 20:22:04|STOCKBOX|rename|ok|Media/config.txt|.recycle/stock/Media/config.txt

Using the following:
mutate {
  gsub => ["message","\|"," "]
}

I remove the pipes between my characters and replace them with spaces so that grok can handle it. Leaving me with:
    Oct 30 20:22:04 localhost smbd[27520]: stock stock 192.168.0.6 HOSTNAME adminstorage 2014/10/30 20:22:04 STOCKBOX rename ok Media/config.txt .recycle/stock/Media/config.txt

At the moment I am using the following grok pattern:
%{MONTH:syslog_month} %{MONTHDAY:syslog_day} %{TIME:syslog_time} localhost smbd\[%{INT:pid}\]: %{USER:user_service} %{USER:user_session} %{IP:client_ip} %{HOST:client_NETBIOS} %{GREEDYDATA:name_of_service} %{YEAR:samba_year}/%{MONTHNUM:samba_month}/%{MONTHDAY:samba_day} %{TIME:samba_time} %{USER:domain} %{WORD:action} %{WORD:sucess} %{GREEDYDATA:path}

At the end I am relying on GREEDYDATA to hoover up the path, as it's missing it's leading characters, it doesn't get picked up by PATH or anything else I can think to use. Do I need to write my own filter, or am I missing something? The reason it matters is if you are doing a rename, you get with 2 paths, and I would quite like to be able to spilt the 2 if possible. Since they can have spaces in the paths, and the thing that splits them is also a space how can I separate them?

A: As soon as I finished writing it all out it came to me, simply changing the mutate to replace with a comma, or other similar character should solve the issue
EDIT
I ended up choosing ":" instead of commas, this cannot be used in a file name and works fine with the new grok:
filter {
    mutate {
      gsub => ["message","\|",":"]
    }
    grok {
      match => { "message" => "%{MONTH:syslog_month} %{MONTHDAY:syslog_day} %{TIME:syslog_time} localhost smbd\[%{INT:pid}\]: %{USER:user_service}:%{USER:user_session}:%{IP:client_ip}:%{HOSTNAME:client_NETBIOS}:%{GREEDYDATA:name_of_service}:%{YEAR:samba_year}/%{MONTHNUM:samba_month}/%{MONTHDAY:samba_day} %{TIME:samba_time}:%{HOST:domain}:%{WORD:action}:%{WORD:sucess}:%{SAMBAFILES}" }
      }
}

Using the following pattern:
SAMBAFILES (?:%{GREEDYDATA:file_start}:%{GREEDYDATA:file_end}|%{GREEDYDATA:file_position})

This works fine under testing so far

All My Own Work
For me there's nothing more rewarding than working for three months or so on creating a new album.
I love all the pre-production stuff like writing, arranging, learning and recording the music and lyrics - this is what takes most of the time.
Then again I am consumed by the process of engineering the tracks to make them the best I can with the facilities and funding I have.
The software I use, Band In A Box and Cakewalk, isn't top of the line but is reliable and allows me to experiment with my music.

Neil Colquhoun RIP
How sad to hear of Neil Colquhoun's passing.I first met Neil at Folk Routes in Wellington four years ago where I was performing as the main guest. Neil was there to launch the re-issue of his book "Song of a Young Country". We hit it off immediately and chatted for quite some time about what it was that motivated us both - the preservation of our respective folk-heritages.
He gifted me a copy of his book and very kindly signed it on the inside cover "To Phil - a fantastic English folk-heritage musician…Read more

What Is Folk Music? Well I don't know about you but I'm not in the least bit confused.
What is folk music?
There are two types of what nowadays we call 'folk music'. Neither is a true, identifiable music genre, like blues or jazz or classical music.
The first type is what I call "Folk Heritage Music" and what Neil Colquhun (Kiwi author of "Song of a Young Country") calls simply "Heritage Music".
My feeling is that "folk-heritage' music better differentiates it as music of the common people as opposed to more highbrow forms of heritage music.
Neil attended a concert I did at Wellington Folk Club…Read more

Lottery togel hongkong remains a popular on world
Lottery is a popular game in which people play for prizes. It has been around for centuries and has become a widespread activity. Lottery tickets are sold at local stores, gaming establishments, and even on the Internet. The first recorded records of lottery dates from Ancient China (between 205 BC and 187 BC), and they were used to fund important government projects. During the Han Dynasty, lotteries helped finance the building of the Great Wall of China. Lottery was also popular in the Roman Empire, where it was often played as an entertainment event at dinner parties. In the Roman Empire, the lottery was used as a means of funding the City of Rome, and it is believed that the Emperor Augustus introduced the game to the city.
Some lottery strategies are based on the gambler's fallacy, a fallacy in which people think that past events can influence future events. People who believe this fallacy often try to influence future events togel hongkong by picking numbers that have come up in previous draws. They look for "hot" and "cold" numbers, which are numbers that have been drawn frequently but have not won a prize for a long time. These strategies are not a good way to win the lottery, since they don't guarantee a winning outcome.
Although New York doesn't have its own online lottery, residents are free to play on a third-party platform, such as thelotter.com. These third-party websites let residents purchase lottery tickets, scan them into their accounts, and claim their prizes if they win. These third-party lottery sites are a controversial matter. Despite the controversy, the lottery remains a popular game in New York. In fact, over 16,000 retailers offer lottery tickets in the state.

Government to lease out 6 airports through PPP
The Govt. claims that PPP airports in India have been ranked among the top 5 in their respective categories by the Airports Council International (ACI) in terms of Airport Service Quality (ASQ)
Union Cabinet approved the "In-principle" approval for leasing out six airports of AAI, such as Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Lucknow, Guwahati, Thiruvananthapuram and Mangaluru for operation, management and development under Public Private Partnership (PPP) through Public Private Partnership Appraisal Committee (PPPAC). The Cabinet also approved constitution of an Empowered Group of Secretaries headed by CEO, NITI Aayog with Secretary, Ministry of Civil Aviation, Secretary, Department of Economic Affairs and Secretary, Department of Expenditure to decide on any issue falling beyond the scope of PPPAC.
Through PPP in infrastructure projects the government envisages bringing efficiency in service delivery, expertise, enterprise and professionalism apart from harnessing the needed investments in the public sector. The PPP in airport infrastructure projects has brought world class infrastructure at airports, delivery of efficient and timely services to the airport passengers, augmenting revenue stream to the Airports Authority of India without making any investment, etc. of these, for development of Greenfield Airports at Hyderabad and Bengaluru. Presently, the airports being managed under the PPP model include Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad and Cochin. The PPP airports in India have been ranked among the top 5 in their respective categories by the Airports Council International (ACI) in terms of Airport Service Quality (ASQ). While these PPP experiments have helped create world class airports, it has also helped AAI in enhancing its revenues and focusing on developing airports and Air Navigation infrastructure in the rest of the country.
The increase in domestic and international air travel in India combined with congestion at most airports, and the strong traffic growth at the 5 airports which were privatized over a decade ago has attracted the attention of several international operators and investors. The airport sector is the top contender among infrastructure sectors in terms of international interest. International operators and investors prefer brownfield airport expansion opportunities with having more than 3-4 million passenger capacity. The airport sector may provide an immediate opportunity to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) by adoption of a PPP approach.
Therefore, it has been decided to lease out six airports viz. Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Lucknow, Guwahati, Thiruvanthapuram and Mangaluru of AAI in the first phase for development, operation and management under PPP. This is expected to enhance the revenue to AAI and increased economic development in these areas in terms of job creation and related infrastructure. .
