They do not push repair work on you they will tell you what needs to be done now and what can wait.
I have had two different issues with my car this past month.

My second issue was also handled with the same desire to troubleshoot efficiently and then repair.
I like to support family-owned business. Ness exemplifies family-owned in the best possible way. You get wonderful service and they are very fast. But most importantly, they are caring. I did not expect that from an auto place. I highly, highly recommend them.

Inaugural Poet Amanda Gorman Covers TIME's Black Renaissance Issue
By Marsha B. @introvertNthecity
Source: Awol Erizku / Awol Erizku
Life has been a world-wind for inaugural poet laureate Amanda Gorman. After her riveting poem that captured the hearts of Americans everywhere, there's been a heightened interest in what the young Harvard graduate has to say. So when TIME published their special project, "The Black Renaissance," there was no surprise that it would feature the famed poet in conversation with non other that our forever First Lady, Michelle Obama.
"The Black Renaissance" was created in partnership with historian and author Ibram X. Kendi, to celebrate the power of Black art, marking this current moment in history as the Black Renaissance.
The wave of Black excellence has been at an all-time high. Creatively speaking, we've witnessed some of the greatest forms of artistic expression of our time. Because arts and politics often go hand in hand, it made sense to feature prominent Black figures like Gorman, Brit Bennett, Jasmine Guillory and Jacqueline Woodson in the latest TIME issue.
"In this first Black History Month after the racial reckoning of 2020, I feel impelled to do what historians rarely do: mark history while the story is still being written…. We are living in the time of a new renaissance—what we are calling the Black Renaissance—the third great cultural revival of Black Americans, after the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s, after the Black Arts Movement of the 1960s and 1970s. Black creators today were nurtured by these past cultural revivals—and all those brilliant creators who sustained Black Arts during the 1980s and 1990s. But if the Harlem Renaissance stirred Black people to see themselves, if the Black Arts Movement stirred Black people to love themselves, then the Black Renaissance is stirring Black people to be themselves. Totally. Unapologetically. Freely," Kendi said.
Gorman had the honor of sitting down with Michelle Obama to discuss the Black Renaissance. Here's an exert from their conversation:
"We're here to talk about the current renaissance in Black art—this surge of creativity we've seen over the past six years or so. What do you make of calling this period a "renaissance"? And where do you see yourself within it?" Michelle asked.
"We're living in an important moment in Black art because we're living in an important moment in Black life. Whether that's looking at what it means politically to have an African-American President before Trump, or looking at what it means to have the Black Lives movement become the largest social movement in the United States. What's been exciting for me is I get to absorb and to live in that creation I see from other African-American artists that I look up to. But then I also get to create art and participate in that historical record…. In all the forms of expression of human life, we're seeing that artistry be informed by the Black experience. I can't imagine anything more exciting than that," Amanda replied.
We are living in a Black Renaissance indeed. The creative heights that we've made in art, music, sports, and politics has peaked over the last few years and it's been a privilege to witness. You can read more of Gorman and Obama's conversation in the latest issue of TIME, available today.

None of the ingredients used in our personalized protein powder blends are on the NSF or NCAA banned substance lists.
Some blends may contain a single serving of non-GMO green tea extract, which contains a small amount of naturally-occurring caffeine (5 mg, approximately 1/20th of a cup of coffee). This, however, is 100 times below the acceptable limit for caffeine in NCAA athletes. As long as you don't consume 100 scoops of protein within 3 hours of a competition, you will be fine.
However, Gainful's products are not currently NSF Certified for Sport. Due to the large variety of different protein blends we produce, the certification process is especially expensive and slow – but we're working on it!

Wonderful work by Biffignandi, better known for his Fleetway Picture Library war covers. Here he depicts the entrance of a Roman road into a fortified town.
It comes from a series that ran in Treasure magazine explaining the history of Romano-Britain to younger readers. The life in the faces of the two men in the foreground is especially good.
The issue of Treasure is unknown, probably early in the series run, just dated April 27 on the reverse and noted as page 16.

    }

Told to add more details, but don't know exactly what to say. Why does the label take the text, but the picker is not binding to the ObservableList picker?

A: It is there, I mean the Picker. Either set a Title and/or a BackgroundColor so you can see it.
Note: Confirmed it's there by running the code but using Xamarin.Forms Picker control, not sure what <data:BindablePicker /> is. You can also use the Picker Control if all you're looking is being able o Bind data.
You can change your CollectionView.Template with something like this:
<CollectionView.ItemTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
        <StackLayout Orientation="Horizontal" WidthRequest="220" Padding=" 2,2,2,2">
            <Label Text="{Binding lblTitle}" VerticalOptions="Center" />
            <Picker ItemsSource="{Binding picker}"
                    SelectedIndex="0"
                    Title="Select One" // or what ever you want to add
                    BackgroundColor="ForestGreen" // or whatever color you want to use
                    VerticalOptions="CenterAndExpand"
                    HorizontalOptions="EndAndExpand"/>
        </StackLayout>
    </DataTemplate>
</CollectionView.ItemTemplate>

Hope this helps.-

Province's free speech policy sparks controversy on campus
Eric Davison
Ford speaks during his 2018 Campaign. Photo: CC, via Flickr
Universities must comply or risk losing funding
Winter 2019 will be the first semester in which Ontario universities will be required to follow the Ford government's new free speech policies or risk losing out on provincial funding.
Doug Ford's Conservative government first implemented the policy last year, intending to address a perceived crisis of free speech on campus. However, the move has faced backlash by academic organizations who claim it erodes the independence of educational institutions.
"There is no free speech crisis on Ontario campuses. This is an ideological fiction advanced by the government to justify interference in the academic governance and autonomy of Ontario's universities and colleges." states the Ontario Confederation of University Faculty Associations (OCUFA) and the Canadian Federation of Students (CFS) in a joint statement.
The University of Ottawa passed a compliant policy in December, now known as Academic Policy 121. The policy states that all students have a right to free expression on campus, and the university will not "seek to shield its community from controversial or objectionable views."
The university has historically maintained a similar, but informal policy on free speech. However, Policy 121 gives the administration new powers to punish individuals and organizations who interfere in the free speech of others.
The OCUFA statement continues, "Threatening to discipline students, staff and faculty actually limits expression rights on campus, especially for systemically marginalized groups. Members of the campus community may be discouraged from speaking up for fear of being disciplined."
Policy 121 states that it does not "permit interference with the free expression of the full spectrum of human thought."
Jeremy Cavenaugh, a third-year international economics major, believes that the non-interference element means the policy is inherently hypocritical.
"If the school won't let you yell at a Nazi then you don't really have a free speech policy, you just have a pro-Nazi policy."
"When you have people who publicly prop up the Jewish conspiracy—well that isn't an idea that deserves protection," he says, in reference to Faith Goldy's appearances on university campuses.
Policy 121 does allow the banning of hate speech but does not elaborate on if or how this will be enforced.
Other students were more supportive of the move.
"When you have people pulling fire alarms and barricading doors instead of arguing, you have a free speech problem," says Allen Ramsey, a second-year Telfer business student. "Some of these speakers, are saying the dumbest shit—it isn't hard to prove them wrong politely. When you riot, you are just sort of giving them legitimacy and causing property damage."
The specifics of Policy 121's enforcement mechanisms on campus are still not known. The province has committed to an annual review of all publicly funded schools to ensure compliance with the Conservative party's plan.

Flooring firm creating new jobs and announces plans to hit £100m sales
Company says it sells five per cent share of all wooden floors in the UK
Tom PegdenBusiness Editor
UK Flooring Direct was established by Jason Ashby in 2005
Never miss a story from Inkleh - sign up for our free newsletter today
An online flooring store plans to take on 20 more staff this year to meet growing demand.
UK Flooring Direct turned over £35 million last year and expects that to hit £50 million in the coming year – with hopes of growing that to £100 million in the next few years.
The business sells everything from wooden floors to laminates, vinyl flooring and underlays to the public and trade.
Management said latest figures for the year to March 2018 suggest the company now sells five per cent share of all wooden floors in the UK.
UK Flooring Direct was launched in 2005 and moved to Logix Road on the Hinckley Commercial Park in 2017, where it also has a showroom.
The latest figures suggest 60 per cent year-on-year growth for the company following heavy investment in people, technology and products.
That has included growing staff to more than 100 and spending £1.5 million on e-commerce and AI technology and more than £6 million on marketing.
UK Flooring Direct is in a 58,000 sq ft warehouse in Hinckley Commercial Park, just off the A5
The company has made a string of senior appointments across all of its departments and last year brought in a new chairman, chief technical officer, chief finance officer and a non-executive director.
Chief executive Jason Ashby established the company after noting the rise of hard flooring in homes and the growing trend for online shopping.
He said the firm would continue to invest to reach its ambitious targets.
He said: "We are very pleased to hit the £35 million turnover mark, another step in our very ambitious plans to grow UK Flooring Direct.
"Over the past few years, we have invested massively – in our move to a new headquarters, in people, in profile-raising and in the very latest technology.

There are inevitably real people behind the strident slogans and ideological labels in today's immigration debate. Roy Germano's "The Other Side of Immigration" does more than any other work to give people otherwise disparaged as "threatening" and "illegal" a human face and to reveal the devastating personal effects of U.S. immigration and economic policies on our closest neighbors.
The Other Side of Immigration is relentless in its focus on the voices of those who have made the difficult and dangerous journey, looking at what they hoped to gain, what they left behind, and how the domestic politics of Mexico shaped their decisions. I recommend the film with enthusiasm for a wide range of audiences, including community groups, higher education institutions, public schools, and policy makers.
The humanity oozes from this film - from the sadness of the mother who has not seen her daughter in seven years to the anguish of would-be mayor trying to deal with the endemic corruption holding back much needed development. Despite the lack of formal education for most interviewees, they draw astonishingly insightful conclusions on their situations, criticising the lack of oversight institutions monitoring the effects of NAFTA-imposed free trade, and advocating a more balanced system based on the European model. Germano is eloquent and passionate in the discussion of his work and is able to draw out the wider implications of this short, one-hour insight. It would be no surprise to me to see his work as a source of inspiration for policy makers on both sides of the border.
The Other Side of Immigration is an intelligent, thought-provoking, beautiful, and caring look at the costs of policies in Mexico and the United States that lead to illegal immigration by so many. It is an understatement to say that the film has made me think; I haven't stopped thinking and talking about it for days. I highly recommend that you see this film and then consider what you might do to help change these policies for the better.

Ø Drinking alcohol or using tobacco products - While TMS Global does not hold a philosophy of not consuming alcohol or using tobacco products; we do presume that use of alcohol and smoking is a delicate social and cultural matter, which becomes especially confusing in a cross-cultural setting. There are many Peruvians that struggle with the addiction to alcohol and tobacco the problems associated with their effects. The addiction in fact may start at a very young age.
It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything that will cause your brother to fall(Rom. 14:21).
Therefore, we ask that all members of TMS Global short-term teams agree to abstain from using alcohol or tobacco products for the duration of the trip, including during transit and on planes, regardless of who may or may not be watching.

Nearly 610,000 people die of heart disease in the United States every year–that's 1 in every 4 deaths.
Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common form of arrhythmia, affects up to 6 million people in the United States and 33 million worldwide. Left untreated, AF can lead to a 5X increase in stroke.
People over 65 are at most risk, but AF can occur in younger profiles based on health and history. Early detection is key to preventing AF from becoming more serious.
There are many monitoring options today ranging from prescription based ECG patches to handheld ECG recorders.
Hospital readmissions as a result of heart failure (HF) affect 20% of patients in the first 30 days and up to 50% within six months.
However, predicting who will be affected is difficult. As such, hospital system, including skilled nursing facilities, need to play an active role in detection.
Wearable ECG monitors can be part of the solution for continuous monitoring and early detection of HF events.


Learn how to make a cornbread omelet with the editors of Southern Living magazine.
If you need triple-tested, much-beloved recipes for your favorite Southern comfort foods, turn to the experts at Southern Living magazine's test kitchen. Craving a new spin on an old favorite? The editors' new collection, Recipe Revival, is stacked and loaded with everything you need to know to churn out perfect batch after perfect batch. Today, you're going to learn how to make a cornbread omelet.
Totally smitten with the cornbread omelets we sampled at the National Cornbread Festival in South Pittsburg, Tennessee, we returned home, omelet pans in hand, to put our own spicy chorizo spin on the festival favorite.
Sauté the chorizo in an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan or skillet with sloped sides 7 to 10 minutes or until browned. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Wipe the skillet clean.
Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in skillet, and sauté the green onions, bell pepper, and jalapeño peppers over medium-high heat 3 to 5 minutes or until tender. Transfer to a bowl; stir in the chorizo. Wipe the skillet clean.
Whisk together the cornmeal mix, buttermilk, milk, flour, and egg.
Coat the skillet with cooking spray; melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in skillet over medium-high, rotating pan to coat bottom evenly. Pour about 1⁄3 cup cornmeal mixture into skillet. Tilt pan so uncooked portion flows around to coat bottom of pan, cooking until almost set, bubbles form, and edges are dry (about 1 1⁄2 minutes). Gently flip with a spatula.
Sprinkle 1 side of the omelet with about 1⁄2 cup onion mixture and about 3 tablespoons cheese. Fold the omelet in half; cook 30 seconds or until cheese is melted. Transfer to a serving plate; keep warm. Repeat procedure 4 times with remaining butter, cornmeal mixture, onion mixture, and cheese. Serve immediately.

A creative producer oversees the entire process of making a film or TV show, from pre-production to post-production. Often, they will bring the story to the table and hire the production crew. There is no distinct path to becoming a "mainstream" producer, but one must have industry experience and a network of industry peers, often developed over time.

Q: How to take a variable in my java file and connect it to an XML file Having trouble with a weatherapp project. The requirements are :

Q: PHP / MySQL - Won't allow me to insert (or replace) right single quotation mark "'" I have a CSV file with a list of station names. Some of the names contain right single quotation mark: ' (not a normal single quote).
I am trying to read it from the file and insert into the database. All the stations work fine, but ones with the quote get inserted into the database as 0.
I was trying to replace it to a normal quote mark, but PHP doesn't seem to find the quote in the string.
if(strpos($stationName, "'") !== false){
    var_dump($stationName);
    var_dump(str_replace("'", "'", $stationName));
    die();
}

The code above never gets triggered. Do I need to do something with the encoding within PHP or MySQL and how should I go about fixing this?
Example of string that works fine:
Langton Matravers, Crack Lane Bottom (N-bound)
And example that gets inserted as 0:
Harman's Cross, Wilkswood Farm Road (NW-bound)
I am using Laravel if that makes any difference.
Thank you.
EDIT:
I've run detect decoding, which showed me that the string is in ASCII encoding - I believe this could be the issue, but I can't seem to change the encoding?
I run the following lines:
$stationName = mb_convert_encoding($stationName, "UTF-8", "ASCII");
var_dump(mb_detect_encoding($stationName));

And still get the output that the string is in ASCII?
EDIT2:
Turns out that this was issue with the actual CSV file encoding and the way the CSV library I was using (Laravel-Excel) was reading it. Adjusting the config and converting the CSV file encodings seems to have fixed the issue.

This Week in New Haven (October 24 – 30)
W ith this year's Halloween falling on a Monday—next Monday—some of your best bets for scary fun happen the weekend before.
This national political season, the extent to which private agendas interfere with news media's public commitments to journalistic principle has never been more visible. Nor has the commensurately pernicious effect those media have in shaping political discourse and outcomes. One bright spot has been Politico, which investigated critically important stories—like this one—that other major players wouldn't even report. Today at Yale's William Harkness Hall (100 Wall St, New Haven), you and the rest of the crowd can meet the woman behind Politico's newsroom: editor Susan Glasser, who's participating in a 5 p.m. Q&A. Free.
The subject of a mini-exhibit at the Yale Center for British Art across the street, photographer/sculptor/costumer/filmmaker Yinka Shonibare comes to the Yale University Art Gallery today for "a conversation" with art history/African-American studies professor Kobena Mercer. The conversing, which the public can attend for free, gets going at 5:30 p.m. 1111 Chapel Street, New Haven. (203) 432-0600.
Between two of its branches, the New Haven Free Public Library gives kids hours of free after-school fun. Things begin at the Ives Main Library (133 Elm St, New Haven; 203-946-8835), where, from 3:30 to 5, an "Experimental-Monster-Making-Cake-Decoration Tea Party" involves icing cupcakes and working together "to create and decorate"—and, presumably, eat—"a giant monster cake." Then, from 6 to 8, the Stetson Branch (200 Dixwell Ave, New Haven; 203-946-8119) hosts a family-friendly Harvest Festival offering "stories, music, snacks and crafts," with costume-wearing—no doubt owing to the upcoming holiday—encouraged.
At 7 p.m., the Whitney Humanities Center (53 Wall St, New Haven) screens "one of the most damning critiques of the Japanese feudal structure ever," then hosts a discussion with the star—a shopkeeper who would become "one of Japan's greatest actors" after being plucked from relative obscurity. The movie is Harakiri (1962), and the actor is Tatsuya Nakadai, directed in this film by Masaki Kobayashi, the man who did the plucking. Now 83 years old, Nakadai will presumably speak about filming this particular movie, though discussion could veer into his experiences across any of the films, TV shows or plays in which he's appeared over the last 70 years. Free.
All aboard. Tonight and tomorrow night mark the last calls for the Shore Line Trolley Museum's Haunted Isle attraction, in which "legend has it that somewhere in the woods at the end of the trolley tracks lurk the things that nightmares are made of." $12 admission sometime between 7 and 10 p.m. gets you an eerie trolley ride to a freaky walk through forest, where "flashing strobe lights, loud noises, fog machines, small places, dark places, actors that jump out at you, props that spring out at you and many other scary things" await. 17 River St, East Haven. (203) 467-6927.
Southern Connecticut State's Lyman Center gets in the Halloween spirit, too, with a multimedia talk dubbed "The Warren Files." Regionally famed—and often disbelieved—exorcists/ghost hunters Ed and Lorraine Warren founded the New England Society for Psychic Research, which has now passed to their son-in-law, Tony Spera. Spera's the speaker at tonight's event, which promises "a spine-tingling evening of encounters with the supernatural" via an examination of the Warrens' "case files." $15, with discounts for SCSU faculty, staff, students and a limited number of students' guests. 501 Crescent Street, New Haven. (203) 392-6154.
The finale of City-Wide Open Studios 2016 is Erector Square Weekend, unfolding today and tomorrow from noon to 6 p.m. It happens, naturally, at the expansive complex known as Erector Square (315 Peck St, New Haven)—once the headquarters of the famed toymaker A. C. Gilbert Company, now a buzzing hive of local artists, 112 of which are opening up their studios and letting the public wander in. Free.
"Reinterpreting music from such artists as Shostakovich, Gilbert & Sullivan, Tom Waits and others, Le Tre Fenici and guests"—a trio of voice, flute and piano, with friends on viola and stilts—"celebrate the macabre of Victorian Paris's historic 1890s Cabaret du Néant" tonight at Lyric Hall (827 Whalley Ave, New Haven; 203-389-8885.). The French stands for "Cabaret of Nothing," which speaks to the evening's ephemerality but not to its substantive delights. They involve a "masqued gala" punctuated by "performance art and celestial imaginings," with costumes and masks in "the spirit of the cabaret" highly encouraged among attendees. 8 p.m. $15.
Westville's annual Giant Puppet and People-Making-Mayhem Parade gathers at the corner of West Rock and Whalley Avenue, then steps off for a promenade at 11 a.m. With puppet-wielders "joined by costumed friends, neighbors" and really anyone at all, the parade finishes at the street corner where it started, pushing into the nearest portion of Edgewood Park for "one gigantic outdoor Halloween Party," thrown in tandem with the concurrent CitySeed farmers' market.

People may have noticed that I have been uncharacteristically silent over the controversy in regards to Beyoncé's Superbowl halftime show. The reason for this is that this issue is far more complicated than most of the current conversation is admitting, and it took some time to really figure out how to put this into words. As with all my writings, I ask that you read this to completion, as, with all complicated thoughts, you may misinterpret what is written if you only take in part of it.
While watching the conversation on this, I have seen arguments for all the positive things done by the Black Panthers, which Rob Explains in his video here, but also I was informed by one of my childhood mentors that, when he grew up, he had a family friend's house bombed by the Panthers for political reasons. He was personally terrorized by them.
What Beyoncé stumbled upon is a symbol that has two sets of meanings. For blacks, it was a group of people who utilized open carry laws to protect their vulnerable members and set up a number of beneficial programs to help out the disenfranchised. When blacks talk about their sense of pride with the organization that is because that is the Black Panthers they have been raised to know. That is the legend that Beyoncé, who was only a year old when the Black Panthers dissolved, was raised to know.
On the other side is the Black Panthers that whites were raised to fear. Some, like my mentor, were direct witnesses to the terror. For others, the media did a good job playing up the terror, to the point where Conservative Republican guru Ronald Reagan actually passed gun control legislation written to disarm the Panthers.
One symbol, two meanings. One side seeing it as a source of cultural pride, the other as symbol that has terrorized them.
Fellow whites, we now know what it feels like for blacks to have the Confederate Flag waived in our faces and then be told we are being too sensitive.
I am neither writing this to mock whites or shame Beyoncé and her defenders. But rather, I am pointing this out because it is an opportunity to finally find a point of understanding of what the other goes through. If we can push past our fragility and knee jerk reactions, this show gives us a chance to make substantial headway in the racial conversation that is going on today.
I have in the past described how a symbol can take on such a dualistic meaning, acknowledged that many confederate flag waivers do consider it a symbol of pride and not hate, and even described my own struggles to react to a similar situation. And even though I have always opposed violence as part of organized civil actions, it would be hypocritical for me no to give the same considerations to Beyoncé in her invoking the symbol of the Black Panthers. And if we are going to come to a reasonable conclusion to the discussion on race, we need to be strong enough to acknowledge this point of mutual understanding.
So this is the opportunity that Beyoncé gave us. The next time someone posts a Confederate Flag on your feed and than chides anyone who might be offended by it, remember how you felt when Beyoncé perfomed. The next time someone argues that the Confederate Flag is nothing more than a symbol of Southern Pride, remember when you got dismissed by a similar defense of Beyoncé. Or if you find yourself on the flip side, remember how your words echos the other and how you have been dismissed.
Now we will always have those who don't want us to have this conversation. Every group has its assholes, and there will be people who want keep attacking over this because they are legitimately racist. There are those who are legitimately about the hate, and I have noted before, they trick others into agreeing with them to hide in the masses. They breed such hypocrisies because it is a good camouflage. In many ways this revelation is the way we can weed out the bad from the good, because if we can find the strength and integrity to rise about our fragility and shame, we will elevate the conversation above those who seek to anchor it in the mire and the gutters.
Such elevations always start with a point of understanding, and we that is exactly what we have been given here.

How Ted Cruz vs. Beto O'Rourke could predict America's political future
Few political races say more about the current state of American politics than the tight race for the U.S. Senate in Texas
By Jon Wertheim & Graham Messick
This video is available on CBS All Access
60 Minutes All Access subscribers, Click here
36 hours from now, polls will open for the midterm elections, and 470 congressional seats will be up for grabs. One of the most surprisingly competitive races has been unfolding in Texas. The Senate election there pitting incumbent Ted Cruz in the red corner, against challenger Beto O'Rourke in the blue corner, represents more than just gripping political theater, a clash of big personalities, and record-setting fundraising. On the surface, the candidates have plenty in common: two Texans a year apart in age who left the state for Ivy League schools before returning. They were even elected to Congress the same day six years ago. But in this divided cultural and political moment, Cruz-O'Rourke has become a national barometer for American politics, in the unlikeliest of places.
"I don't know that there could be much more on the line than there is today. I don't know if the choices could be any more clear, the contrast any greater."
Gov. Greg Abbott: As goes Texas, so will go the future of the United States of America! [CHEERS]
At age 47, Senator Ted Cruz has gone from Tea Party disruptor to Republican Party stalwart.
Gov. Greg Abbott: I welcome my good friend, your Senator Ted Cruz! [CHEERS]
On a recent Sunday, he shared the stage with Texas Governor Greg Abbott in a roadhouse in his hometown of Houston.
Sen. Ted Cruz: God bless Texas! [CHEERS]
Cruz is equally familiar with the levers of power… and the art of politics.
Sen. Ted Cruz: Now why is it that people come to Texas? Because Texas is where the opportunity is. Because Texas is where the freedom is!
Ted Cruz at a campaign stop in Texas
We sat down with the incumbent at a Houston BBQ joint.
Jon Wertheim: We've had our cameras following you for weeks. You're, you're working hard out there. What are the central principles you're trying to get across?
Sen. Ted Cruz: When I ran six years ago, I told the people of Texas I'd fight every day for low taxes, low regulations, and lots of jobs. My twin passions in life have been the American free enterprise system and the U.S. Constitution.
In this solidly red state, Cruz comes to battle armed with a loyal base: gun rights advocates, suburbanites, evangelicals, and big business. He also has the support of the sitting president.
President Trump: Ted's opponent in this race is a stone cold phony named Robert Francis O'Rourke. Sometimes referred to as "Bay—to."
Actually, it's pronounced "Beto," a nickname for Robert that he picked up in his hometown of El Paso. He's a three-term U.S. Congressman from the West Texas border. A former bass player in a punk band, O'Rourke has finally, at age 46, achieved rock star status.
Beto O'Rourke while campaigning in Texas
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: We are the defining immigrant story and experience. A border state that understands the bilateral relationship with Mexico.
O'Rourke counts on the vote of Texas' millennials, minorities and urban professionals. He's spent months threading his way through Texas. While his small team livestreams everything, even the most mundane moments. When we met him in Waco recently, both his odometer and his voice were tapped.
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: I don't know that there could be much more on the line than there is today. I don't know if the choices could be any more clear, the contrast any greater.
Jon Wertheim: Why do you think so many people, both inside Texas but beyond Texas, are so captivated by this race?
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: I think the way in which we are running it, without PACs, without special interests, without pollsters, without consultants, going to every county, all 254. At this really divided moment, everybody, knowing that they're invited to be part of this. And the fact that some of your stereotypes about what you think Texas is, aren't necessarily true.
He's right. The state's longtime slogan says it all: "Texas - it's like a whole other country." But no more. Forget the image of Texas as this outsized outlier. Right now, it's actually a strikingly accurate reflection of the United States as a whole. Like America, the state is more diverse than ever. Four in ten Texans are Hispanic. And Cruz's hometown of Houston is set to overtake Chicago as the third largest American city after New York and L.A.
Sen. Ted Cruz: Texas is growing like crazy. There's no state like Texas. I think we've got over 1,000 people a day moving to Texas.
Texas may be carpeted with flatlands and prairies, but the open skies are being pierced with skyscrapers.
Lawrence Wright: Texas is an urban state. Three of the most populist, top-ten cities are in Texas. And number 11 is Austin.
Lawrence Wright is a longtime resident of Austin and the author of the book, "God Save Texas." He characterizes the state in terms of two different radio frequencies.
Lawrence Wright
Jon Wertheim: You've divided Texas into what you call AM Texas and FM Texas. Explain that.
Lawrence Wright: Well, I think AM Texas is what most people outside of Texas think the state is. AM Texas is you know, Rush Limbaugh.
Jon Wertheim: Social conservative. Care about their gun rights.
Lawrence Wright: Very much so. Evangelicals and so on. And yet, there's a side of Texas that many people don't really understand, and that's the FM Texas, which is more urban, progressive, more like other cities in the country.
The big question: which frequency will have the greater signal strength on Tuesday.
Lawrence Wright: I think that a lot of the Tea Party political figures in power right now see over the horizon. And what they see is a big change coming their way. And that change is brown. And that change is young. And that change is not so conservative. That's the wave that's coming into Texas.
Like all the midterm races, the specter of Donald Trump hovers over the campaigns. In the case of Cruz, his newfound coziness with the president strikes many as hypocritical given how bitterly they opposed each other in the last presidential election.
Jon Wertheim: In 2016, you're running against President Trump and he disparages your father and your wife. You're accepting his support now. Reconcile that.
Sen. Ted Cruz: Listen, 2016 was a hard-fought campaign. And there were hard blows thrown all around. Now, I could've said, you know, I've got hurt feelings. I don't like the things he said on the campaign. So I'm gonna take my marbles and go home. Frankly, I think that would've been a really selfish decision.
Jon Wertheim: Marbles implies this is schoolyard stuff. What he said about your father.
Sen. Ted Cruz: At the end of the day, it's not about me. It's not about being selfish and worrying about my hurt feelings. And so, listen, I don't apologize for not being self-centered and pounding my foot and refusing to work with the president. I'm gonna do my job for the people of Texas.
O'Rourke: "I'm not running in 2020" 01:38
Jon Wertheim: To what extent are you running against Ted Cruz? To what extent are you running against Donald Trump?
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: I'm not running against anyone. I really mean that. I wanna make sure that we are aware of the choice before us. Yep, it's walls, it's Muslim bans, it's "the press is the enemy of the people." We know where that road takes us. We've seen that movie before. But given the stakes, if we're only organized against those things, then we demean our opportunity to define this country in the most positive, ambitious way possible.
Here's an old Texas saying: "there's nothing in the middle of the road but yellow stripes and dead armadillos." In this case, both candidates are squarely in their lanes.
Sen. Ted Cruz: He wants to abolish ICE; I want to abolish the IRS! [CHEERS]
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: What if we ended that war on drugs, ended the prohibition on marijuana. [CHEERS]
Lawrence Wright: Texans are gonna have a choice between a person who's seen as being too far right and another who's seen as being too far left. I think if Beto is elected you can then say Texas is no longer red, it's purple. If Texas is in play, if it's no longer the old reliable red that it's been for such a long time. Then the politics of the country are gonna change.
Right now, the politics of the country are split in two, with Americans taking unyielding positions on climate change, guns, health care and immigration, a topic that has particular resonance in Texas, and may be the biggest divide between the candidates.
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: Although I'll tell you, I've lived almost my entire life, 46 years on this planet in El Paso, one half of the largest binational community in the hemisphere, also happens to be one of, if not the safest cities in the United States of America. Not in spite of, but because we're a city of immigrants.
Sen. Ted Cruz: He wants to make it no longer a crime to cross the border illegally. (BOOING) That would be the very definition of open borders.
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: I just think that the politics of trying to scare you about me is a politics that all of us are sick of. He'll tell you that I want open borders. His mischaracterization, his dishonesty, his lies, he employs those tactics because in the past they've been shown to be effective.
Cruz has practiced traditional retail politics, and relies on his party's infrastructure, PAC money and traditional media. O'Rourke has kept his party's establishment at arm's length.
Jon Wertheim: We've noticed you haven't had a lotta the stars of the Democratic Party, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, former President Obama, they haven't come to Texas. Are you trying to distance yourself from the Party?
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: I'm not distancing myself. But I don't want anyone coming in from the outside. I want the people of Texas to decide this on, on their own terms.
This election may not come down to ideas, personalities, or even money, so much as who shows up. Early voting in Texas has shattered expectations, up more than 500 percent among young voters from the previous midterm.
Jon Wertheim: We keep hearing about the importance of turnout on election day for this election.
Sen. Ted Cruz: Yes. If you look at the dynamics, we've got numbers on our side. There are a lot more conservatives than there are liberals. What the O'Rourke campaign has had on their side is intensity. The liberals who are in Texas are really, really mad. They hate President Trump. That anger is dangerous. I mean, that anger is mobilizing. It means they're gonna show up no matter what. As I've said, they'll crawl over broken-- broken glass to show up.
Jon Wertheim: That's not a good thing?
Sen. Ted Cruz: Look, intensity is, is always potent. Intensity turns people out at the polls.
Jon Wertheim: You working on the assumption that the more people that show up, the better your odds of winning?
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: Yeah, I think the more people that show up, the better we do.
Jon Wertheim: Why?
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: Because the people who are fired up right now are-- are fired up to do something great for this country. That's my sense. I don't have a pollster, so I-- I c-- I can't quantify this assumption for you. But the turnout that we're seeing-- is already off the charts.
Jon Wertheim: You mentioned no pollsters, no PAC money, and from the looks of it you're running this campaign out of the front seat of your minivan.
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: Yeah.
Jon Wertheim: Is that a good idea?
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: Yeah, it's a great idea.
Jon Wertheim: Why's that?
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: It's fun. It's, it's the most direct way to connect with people. I love being on the road every day going to one community after the next. It's the only way to really get to know the state and the people that you wanna serve.
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: When we decide that we're going to invest in people, great things happen ...
Sen. Ted Cruz: If you believe in low taxes, and low regulations, and lots of jobs, if you believe in defending the Constitution.
Jon Wertheim: You have two polished politicians, both in their 40s, ascending stars in their parties. Is there a sense, in Texas, the stakes are really high in this race?
Lawrence Wright: Yeah, because you know, we already had one who ran for president. And but for Donald Trump, might've gotten the nomination. And then we have one that's already being talked about as a future presidential contender without regard to whether he wins this race or not. They each have a core constituency that wants to be heard. That's something they have in common and it runs very deep.
Sen. Ted Cruz: If we lose our freedom here, where do we go? And so, look, I believed this when I was ten. I believed this when I was in college. I believe this now, that freedom works. Freedom matters.
Rep. Beto O'Rourke: This, this is gonna be a defining moment for us. I'm confident that people in the future will look back on 2018. They'll look back on this state specifically and say that Texas decided all.

While the sound of a vintage Strat through a Leslie (a massive wooden cabinet outfitted with a revolving speaker) was ubiquitous in the early '70s, it might stir up some very distinct "Echos" of Pink Floyd, Peter Frampton, King Crimson and Necktar, not to mention chart-topping singles by Three Dog Night, Boston and Ringo Starr.
If you're after that wavy, wet, rotating sound in 2012, it don't come easy (Ringo reference!). You could A. spend big bucks on eBay or B. wait for one to turn up on a New York City street corner (This actually happened to a friend of mine — someone was throwing away a vintage Leslie cabinet!). The good news, however, is that you could C., grab a Hughes & Kettner Tube Rotosphere MKII. It is, simply put, the best Leslie simulator on the market.
The pedal, which is pretty big in its own right and runs on an AC power adapter, has two rotation speeds plus deceleration and acceleration effects. It can be used in mono or stereo mode, which — no lie — makes it pretty much indistinguishable from an actual Leslie (Personal experience here — I have a Rotosphere, and my lucky friend has that NYC Leslie).
Side note: For two tracks that offer pretty unadulterated examples of the real Leslie sound, check out a pair of '80s tracks by the Vaughan brothers: "One's Too Many" by The Fabulous Thunderbirds featuring Jimmie Vaughan (1981) and "Cold Shot" by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble (1984).

History of the Department of Psychiatry
The Department of Psychiatry of National Institute of Mental Health And Neuro Sciences (NIMHANS), Bengaluru, which formally began in the mid-1950,'s, owes its origins to a historical process that began more than a century and a half ago.
It was sometime in the late 1830's that a separate ward for the mentally ill was opened in the Hospital for Peons, Paupers and Soldiers in the Cantonment of Bangalore, to provide services for the soldiers of the East India Company, and the native population of Bengaluru. This gradually expanded, took over a disused Jail, a new building was built and finally in the 1930's a new campus was built to house the mentally ill in salubrious surroundings away from the din and bustle of the city. The open atmosphere, lack of restraint and the excellent help provided by the staff soon became well known, and many visitors would be shown around this campus, as a model of what an independent Indian Kingdom could achieve, without any Imperial involvement. It is now 75 years that this campus has been in use. The buildings themselves are in marked contrast to most Asylums in India. The hospitals in Ranchi, and in Bengaluru were designed and constructed in the 20th century, and built according to the 'most-modern' designs of least restraint, allowing a therapeutic environment to emerge. The ones at Ranchi were guided by principles of racial segregation (which seemed anachronistic), while the one in Bengaluru was genuinely modern, according to Prof E Mapother, during a visit to India in 1937. DiwanMirza Ismail and Dr F Noronha took care to lay out extensive gardens with the help of Gustav Hermann Krumbiegel, the German botanist and the horticultural adviser to the Maharaja of Mysore. As Sir Ismail Mirza noted, he was happy that the general population of then Bangalore viewed the grounds as picnic spot rather than a dreary asylum!
The need to train specialists had become apparent by the mid-twentieth century but it was only after Indian independence that this could be transformed into reality. The Government of India, perhaps influenced by Mapother's view, decided that post-graduate training would begin here and the All India Institute of Mental Health (AIIMH) was thus established, with the Department of Psychiatry as one of the founder departments.
Prof Willi Mayer-Gross visited here in 1951-52 when he helped plan the teaching and prepared the material and then again in 1956-59. The initial faculty in addition to Dr MV Govindaswamy and DLN Murti Rao thus included Willi Mayer-Gross, J Hoenig, DM Lieberman, as also Dr Gopalswamy, SK Ramachandra Rao and others. This eclectic mix offered training in Psychiatry, Neurology, Neurophysiology, Psychology, Indian Philosophy, Biochemistry and occasionally even English literature.
The department has now grown, and more than 1000 psychiatrists have passed through its portals. The Diploma in Psychological Medicine, which was initiated in 1954, was somewhat congruent with the DPM training at the Institute of Psychiatry, and was supplemented by an MD (Psychiatry) in 1966 with the DPM courses now being converted to MD courses. The Department was revamped on a number of occasions. The most notably event would be in 1974, when the All India India Institute of Mental Health (AIIMH) was transformed into the National Institute of Mental Health And Neuro Sciences (NIMHANS) and the Department of Child Psychiatry was designated as a separate service. The department as of date has 33 faculty in Psychiatry, and 4 in Child Psychiatry, and almost a hundred resident doctors. The values that made this campus acquire such a glorious reputation were a commitment to patient care, an open-ness to diverse ideas, an inquisitiveness to delve deeper into the mysteries of mental illness using whatever science, technology, psychology, philosophy and even religion had to offer, and also make all this possible in a cosmopolitan atmosphere. To that extent, if walls could talk, they would have a lot to say about all the discussions and vehement arguments of various fads and fancies in Psychiatry over the past century!

Geothermal in the Philippines – an urgent revamp of targets and development needed
60 MW Mahanagdong geothermal power plant, Leyte, Philippines (source: EDC)
Alexander Richter 18 Jun 2020
The Philippines keeps dropping in renewable energy deployment despite ambitious targets. Targets, strategy and approach to foster development is needed, particularly for a key resource in the country - geothermal energy.
With climate change being a direct threat to the population of the Philippines, think hurricanes etc, particularly the densely populated Manila capital area of the country could be hit the hardest.
So with that luring high risk of natural disasters, such as earthquakes, floods and hurricanes, there have been a number of organisations and experts who are preaching powering a greener future through cleaner sources of energy.
As the effects of climate change are clearly visible around the world, including the Philippines, a cleaner source of power is very much coveted. Another energy source that has the potential to make a difference in the Philippines is geothermal. Southeast Asia is home to 25 percent of the world's geothermal generation capacity. Most, if not all of this geothermal capacity is located in the Philippines and Indonesia.
Geothermal energy is a form of renewable energy produced by heat from the earth. It is considerably safer than most other energy sources. Unlike fossil fuel plants, geothermal power does not produce greenhouse gases (GHG) that are harmful to the environment.
The Philippines is one of the world's top producers of geothermal power, as it is located along the Ring of Fire zone of Pacific volcanoes. However, in 2018, the country dropped in the global rankings for geothermal countries, just behind Indonesia. This prompted the Philippines to consider revamping its geothermal development again.
In June 2018, the country launched a new string of exploration surveys, which is an addition to roughly 10 contracts with power companies on geothermal exploration, according to Think GeoEnergy, a geothermal news and research site.
The Philippines currently has seven geothermal fields which supply about 12 percent of the nation's energy, with a long-term plan to nearly double capacity by 2040.
Targeting geothermal, the Philippines Department of Energy has set targets for geothermal power generation capacity additions … short term 183 MW (2016-2020), 900 MW in the medium-term (2021 to 2025), and 288 MW in the long-term (2026 to 2030). The total objective to be reached by 2030 is 1,371 MW in added capacity (correlating with a total installed capacity of around 3,200 MW). With that the Philippines would reach a level that comes somewhat close to the current top 1 country, the United States that has today an installed of around 3,676 MW. With ambitious development plans elsewhere, the Philippines would though find it hard to remain in its no. 3 position it holds today.
However, despite the potential of geothermal resources in the Philippines, there are still a number of factors contributing to a decline in investments: unattractive incentives package compared to other countries, a privatised energy sector, tedious permitting processes and a lack of potential investors who are willing to take the risk. Although geothermal energy is theoretically free, finding the resource is an expensive enterprise, with exploration wells costing up to US$8 million each with no guarantee of success.
Geothermal trailblazer and leading renewable energy company, Energy Development Corporation (EDC) believes that geothermal is the key to establishing a stable energy baseload suited to the constant yet dynamic power needs of the Philippines' developing economy. Perhaps, geothermal might be the answer to the Philippines' goal of cutting carbon emissions by 70 percent by 2030.
In reports from this week, its seems the outlook is though not as bright with a new low in renewable power generation only 21% in 2019.
With that the National Renewable Energy Board is looking at a review of its renewable energy program. The country is way behind its 15,000 MW by 2030 target. With around 35% of the energy mix in 2008 when the renewable energy legislation was passed, it gradually decreased to 25.6% in 2014, 24.2% in 2016 and now to 21%.
The overall renewable energy power generation capacity stood at 5,438 MW in 2010 (with about 35% represented by geothermal) with a target of 15,000 MW by 2030. So proposals are made to increase the target to 20,000 MW to realistically reach the set energy mix targets.
With a focus on mostly solar capacity (15,000 MW), wind 3,000 MW, hydro 1,000 MW, geothermal (and biomass) would see an increase of only 500 MW each. This is naturally far off from the targets initially set by the Department of Energy in the Philippines.
So industry expectations and the now rather old and outdated targets need to be revisited.

The History of Medicinal Herbs : Ashleigh McDonald
2nd August 2019 /in Uncategorised /by karooridge
Every year, the Botanical Society of South Africa sponsors Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT) students on a camp. In return, students need to search through the Botanical Society's quarterly journal, the Veld and Flora, and present an article to a group of like-minded people, in their third year. The botanical society are a non-profit, civil society that curates South Africa's floral heritage and believe in preservation and education as the main drivers in protecting indigenous vegetation.
By joining the society, you receive benefits like discounts from the book shop, free access to any botanical garden in the country and a quarterly journal jam-packed with articles on South African flora. It was from one of these journals that I chose an article on the written history of herbal medicine which started with Pedanios Dioskurides and his collection of herbal remedies.
Dioskurides was a Doctor in the roman empire and traveled all over Europe at the time of Roman occupation, gathering household recipes for medicinal ailments. His collection, de Materia Medica, was published in 77AD and became the most authoritative reference of medicinal treatment for the next 1500 years. So popular was his work, that it was reprised as gifts for royalty and wealthy patrons with elaborate drawings and descriptions that became simpler with every copy, until just the name of the plant remained.
South African flora is diverse, with many medicinal remedies used by the Khoi and San before colonisation. There is little published research regarding medicinal plant usage in the Great Karoo, which echoes the established abandonment of the indigenous expertise carried by descendants of the San and Khoi people who lived in this area for thousands of years. The following examples can be found today in most farmlands in the Eastern Cape:
Mentha longifolia (Longleaf mint, Balderja) ward off mosquitoes or to help heal wounds,fevers, headaches, indigestion, menstrual pains and colic.
Ballota africana (Cat herb, Kattekruie) treats fevers and measles, coughs, colds, influenza, bronchitis, sore throats, insomnia, bladder and kidney infections.
Melianthus comosus (Kruidjie-roer-my-niet) leaves are toxic and only external use is advised. Leaf poultices are applied to alleviate aching backs, wounds, bruises and rheumatism.
Chrysocoma ciliata (Bitterbos, Bitterkaroo) used to wash sores, wounds and syphilis. It is also said that this decoction helps to alleviate rheumatism, constipation and gastric fever.
Artemisia afra (Wild Wormwood; Wilde-als) used as a treatment for fevers, colds and chest problems. Nasal congestion and headaches is said to be alleviated successfully by placing rolled-up leaves into the nostrils or by inhaling the dried powdered form of the leaves.
Pentzia incana (Anchor Karoo Bush, Ankerkaroo) alleviate constipation and stomach aches. The young stems are chewed to ease toothache.
Eriocephalus ericoides (Kapokbos, Wilde Roosmaryn) Kapokbos used as a repellent for fleas and lice, used to stuff pillows and duvets. It is also a known treatment for kidney and bladder disorders
Boophone disticha (Tumbleweed, Candelabra flower, Bushman Poison Bulb, Gifbol) bulbs contain neurotoxins and many deaths have been recorded from its use. The Khoisan applied it to arrows for hunting. The bulb has sedative properties and people of the Karoo often placed the scales of the bulb in their pillows to treat insomnia. Doses of the bulb cause hallucinations and was used in initiation rites and for divination in certain African tribes. The dry scales of the bulb are applied externally to wounds, burns and various skin conditions to aid healing and to ease The pain. A weak decoction of the bulb is used as a pain killer to alleviate headaches, abdominal pains and chest pains.
Aloe ferox (Cape Aloe, Bitter-aalwyn) Colonists were taught by the Khoi that the sap of the leaves can be used as a wound dressing. The leaf juice is used to treat burns and to rid dogs and cattle of internal and external parasites. The juice of the leaves is a strong laxative for both humans and animals.
Portulacaria afra (Spekboom) This is a versatile plant and is used in a variety of ways ranging from cooking to medicinal remedies. The leaves add a delightful taste to salads and stews. These leaves are also sucked to treat over-exhaustion. It is also believed that chewing the leaves promotes the flow of breast milk. Leaf poultices are applied to blisters, corns, acne, insect bites, sunburn and aching feet. High blood sugar levels are apparently effectively treated by chewing the leaves several times a day.
To find out more, visit your nearest book store and pick up a copy of Antoinette Pienaar's, Griquas Apprentice/ Kruidjie-roer-my or the Briza publication: Medicinal herbs of South Africa.

Eco Bricks There's a goose on my stoep – ponderings of a Nature Conservation I...


I have multiple rows of data. Some have single invoice number and some have 3. I want to find the rows with multiple same invoice number by filtering then selecting certain data and paste to another sheet.
Macro Copy From Invoice To Table Database?
One of my Worksheets gets populated, by another application, with variable number of Data Rows, each time.
sometimes, there are BLANK rows, as well, in between the consecutive data rows.
Number of blank and number of non-blank rows.
I have an Excel Invoice Template, saved as a template.
After I enter all the data I need on the invoice, I want to save a copy of the invoice in a different file folder, which I can no problem. The problem is, if I re-open the saved invoice, we will call it Invoice #100, excel asks me if I want to update, if I say either yes or no, the invoice number will change to Invoice #101. I'm sure you can see how this can cause a major problem if we need to compare information later on, finding the correct invoice would be almost impossible as it would not match the customers invoice number.
Is there code I can add to the existing code, to stop the increment on a saved invoice, but not on the original template?
Following macro code is for copying Excel Invoice Data to Excel Database. Also cleans the specified cells after copying. Its working Perfectly.
But there are some issues that should be solved.
Problem 1: It copies empty cells(""), formula based cells and blank drop-down list.
Problem 2: After copying it cleans formulas too. Formulas must be remain their.
I'd like to be able to search a spreadsheet for a specific word or series of characters. Once all of the ROWS that contain the characters are found, I'd like to be able to have another spreadsheet with ONLY those rows (all columns).
Now, how to do it with a macro but the problem is i need the invoice to be saved as a template. In the end i need the invoice template to move the invoice number to the next one when opened and when im done with the invoice i need a print button that saves the invoice with contents to a specific folder, clears the contents and saves the invoice with the current invoice number as a template so that next time its being opened it can just adjust the counter.I have done the counter adjustment part .
Leith got this perfect for me, but my example does not work right. Not sure why it does not save last invoice number too the workbook. The invoice number increase works great, I must be missing a step.
Invoice No.Invoice DateGrossVatNet The Invoice No. is the first entry box on the userform and it is important that users enter the correct format (which is alphanumeric).
It is also important that a checking is carried out to ensure that the Invoice Number being entered has not already been used.
And this code is pasted lower down the VB editor window. And it seems to be working fine!
MsgBox "Please Enter Invoice No."
MsgBox Me.txtInv.Value & "Invoice Number Is Already Used"
My problem with the second set of codes in (a) & (b) (for the Checking of already existing No.) is that the code allows the user to key in the Invoice No. and go through filling in the other textboxes. It is only after clicking the 'Add' button that a msgbox comes up to indicate that the 'invoice no. is already used'.
I need a tweaking of the codes so that the moment an invoice no. that has already been used is typed into the textbox and the TAB button pressed, a msgbox will show up at that stage to indicate that the 'Invoice no. is already used'. This will reduce time and avoid filling in the other textboxes and clicking the 'Add' button before the checking is done.
I created an receipt template in excel. How can I have it increase the receipt invoice number by 1 every time I open this template? For example the first receipt is 100, I want the second receipt to be 101, and so on.
I am trying to automatically show the date of the last invoice per the customer number.
The address of the invoice number is B7 and the name of the sheet where the B7 is located is Sales Invoice.
I want to start the invoice number at 100000 and add the letters PM to the beginning so that when it is displayed and printed out it reads PM100000.
Then I want it to increment by 1 and this number be placed in the B7 area when the invoice is opened next time.
I m making invoices and daily i have to make around 100 invoices, every time i have to select/copy the latest invoice and paste it downwards (as attached).
kindly tell me a macro so that i can click on button and invoice# 02 (as highlighted & attached) should be pasted on the place where i will keep my Curser. It should be pasted on the place where i will keep curser.
The way I do my invoicing is like this. I have 1 Invoice in a worksheet (eg April 1) When I make my invoice for the next day I right click on the April 1 tab at the bottom. Right click/Move copy/move to end &check the create a copy box. It changes to april1(2)I then right click and change the date to the next invoice date. This might seem goofy, but it works for me. I have my Invoice number at the top of the page in cell e2. Is there a formula to automatically increase the invoice number by 1 every time I copy it?
I have an auto-advancing formula tha takes a helper column to give me invouce numbers when there is a customer listed in column B and blanks space where there is no customer listed. This does make for volitile invoice numbers.
The helper column only advances if there is a customer listed in column B of that row otherwise it repeates the last number. The invoice column only displays this helper number if there is a customer listed in column B of that row. I can't figure out how to get this to work on a UseerForm with vba.
I've written the following code to insert rows at certain points depending on certain conditions, looping through to the last row. However, as the last row number keeps moving, due to inserting rows, I am not sure how to alter the code to allow for this.
I'm trying to create a new column which calculates the number of days from the today's date to the due date of an invoice. Also a Column that an invoice is/was overdue.
Column E - I would like if the date the bill was paid (Column B) is greater than the date the invoice is due (Column C) to show "Overdue" in the cell.
What I'm trying to do is from a template worksheet that I have in a workbook with other worksheets, I'm trying to come up with code that will create a new worksheet based on the template (copy), increment the invoice number, and rename the worksheet tab to be "Invoice # xxxx" (new invoice number from prev. step.).
I have figured out how to use a button on the template to execute, but as I said my VBA skills are lacking to say the least.
I'm trying to figure out a way to get my invoice templates to copy the names and addresses from them to another worksheet to form a customer database if you will.
I have recorded a macro to filter data on sheet 'To Invoice' copy the filtered list, and paste on sheet 'Invoice' in C16.
The code just keeps looping (not looping in a code sense, it just seems to keep flickering the screen like its going over & over) until it locks up 5-10 seconds-ish and then I have to re-start Excel.
I have a situation where I want to copy the first 6 rows of data in a worksheet down 11000 times and right below the previous. I can get it to copy down, but I can't keep the formatting the same, and the formatting is important for when I print. After I get this to copy down the values and format, I'll be inserting pagebreaks every 6th line.
Using VBA, I'd like to copy the formulas down from the first row of one sheet to the same number of rows that are used in a second sheet. For example, if 100 rows are filled in column A of sheet1, I want to copy the formulas in row 1 of sheet2 to rows 2-99 of sheet2.
I have imported some files in to excel. I have attached the test document to give you an example of exactly what Im working with. Here is what I need to do.
1) On a separate worksheet I need to sort out the data by invoice number (Column E).
In the example I have on the worksheet titled "Main" I have listed what I would like it to look like. The purpose of this is that I don't want any spaces in rows. I just want a long list of invoice numbers and their information (Including the project number & customer on all rows). In long story short I want to erase all the information from A18:A25, and add project number and customer name to all the correlated invoice numbers. The way I think I can do this is that the first 4 digits of the invoice numbers are the same if their in the same project.

Q: Definite integral02 Find
$\int_0^{2\pi}\frac{dx}{1-2a \cos{x}+a^2 }$
My turn
Let $$\tan{\frac{x}{2}}=u$$
But i got confused while determining the new limits because
$$\tan{\frac{x}{2}}$$ is not continuous at $x=\pi$
So i want to know how should i do to figure it out
Thanks in advance

A: $$\int_0^{2\pi}\frac{1}{1-2a\cos x+a^2}dx=\int_0^{\pi}\frac{1}{1-2a\cos x+a^2}dx+\int_{\pi}^{2\pi}\frac{1}{1-2a\cos x+a^2}dx$$
And use the fact:
$$\lim_{x\to \pi^-}\tan \frac{x}{2}=\infty$$
$$\lim_{x\to \pi^+}\tan \frac{x}{2}=-\infty$$
