Aerial view of the 260-foot sinkhole in Pasco County, FL.
Central Florida is most commonly known for its constant sunshine, abundance of lakes, coastal living, and popular tourist attractions. However, there is another aspect of the Sunshine State that most do not know about: sinkholes. Fortunately, a team of experts led by Drs. Lori Collins and Travis Doering, Research Associate Professors at the University of South Florida's (USF) Libraries and School of Geosciences, is bringing knowledge and awareness to this dangerous natural threat with the help of 3D Systems Geomagic Wrap® 3D scanning software. The models produced are also creating new 3D object sharing capabilities for USF libraries, and offering new tools for digital learning to students and other researchers.
Dr. Lori Collins collecting subsurface data from the sinkhole using GPR technology.
On a hot July morning in 2017, one of the largest sinkholes the county has seen in decades emerged in Pasco County, Florida. The massive cavity swallowed two homes and caused nine others to be declared unsafe for habitation, leaving the owners to watch as their possessions and memories crumbled and fell into the growing hole. In a crisis like this one, time is of the essence. This type of collapse sinkhole is more rare than slow subsidence and settling events, and extremely hard to study due to its rapid occurrence and progression. County officials knew that collecting the necessary data to help control and predict future sinkhole growth would be an extremely challenging task, but also an imperative one. Collins and her team were called in to help. Unlike their typical research projects, which are carefully planned and mapped out, Collins and her team were forced to move quickly in order to respond to the emergency at hand.
The first step for the USF team was to quickly set up a program of documentation using cutting-edge technology to deliver fast and accurate results. In order to do this, different methods of data capture were utilized. For repeated data captures over a vast area, they used a drone (and coordinated with others doing drone capture), to take daily flights over the course of several weeks following the initial opening of the sinkhole. This provided researchers and officials with a multitude of images and data from which to create surface terrain models and study the sinkhole growth and advancement. Collins' team also utilized historic information such as aerial imagery and LiDAR, allowing them to analyze the site over time and examine change.
While drone imagery offered fast and accurate data collection from a broad view, Collins and her team needed additional technology to capture finite details. With the help of a FARO Focus 330 3D scanner, they were able to do just that. This specialized laser scanner is designed specifically for outdoor applications, allowing researchers to obtain highly accurate long-range terrestrial scans from the ground. Experts conducted three separate scan events in the six weeks following the sinkhole's initial appearance, including Global Positioning Survey (GPS) tools that contributed additional layers of highly detailed data to their growing collection.
Once the team had collected data via these numerous channels, they needed a way to process it into voluble data. "We needed to be able to bring this data to life in a way that was quantifiable. With the help of Geomagic Wrap we were able to do just that," said Collins. Geomagic Wrap is a high-performing reverse engineering software primarily used for surface modeling. However, Collins and her team were able to take Geomagic Wrap to new levels as a multiplexer for their various forms of data.
The LiDAR imagery was converted to digital data and imported into Geomagic Wrap to create surface comparisons from before the event. Point cloud data from the terrestrial 3D scans, as well as subsurface measurement data from the GPR and from a hand probe survey to examine sinkhole depths, were all imported into Geomagic Wrap and integrated with the drone elevation data. Once everything was combined into the single Geomagic Wrap platform, Collins and her team were able to create a series of surface and subsurface models of the disaster. "The new features and measurement of Geomagic Wrap have made it easy to collect and analyze many different forms of data in a single software application," said Collins. Several printed and digital versions of the model were compared to one another over time as a way to measure the ever-changing sinkhole in a way that would have been undetectable to the naked eye. The models produced were also shared through the USF Libraries digital collections, allowing researchers, students, decision makers, and the public open access to the information.
In addition to comparing the sinkhole to itself, 3D data was used to evaluate the elevation of the sinkhole's water level as it related to that of a neighboring lake. This data was crucial in assessing how the sinkhole may or may not have been related to the lake and provided a measureable way of looking at it. Collins says, "This type of capability is crucial to the study and understanding connectivity and morphological processes." Having open access to the models was a part of the workflow that was also greatly improved and made faster through the use of Geomagic Wrap.
All of the surface and subsurface models of the disaster were used constantly by officials to dictate the management and control of the sinkhole quickly, accurately and confidently. Since the models are of such high quality and contain the most finite details, officials were able to identify changes to the sinkhole and respond accordingly.

If you were not able to see The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, I recommend you watch it. If you have not read The Hobbit by J.R Tolkien, I don't know what you're reading in the summer that can possibly beat such a classic. If you haven't read fiction, or don't like it, this is a great book to go to.
I don't read fiction that often, and when my wife recommended The Hobbit, I wasn't too excited. I hadn't seen the Lord of The Rings trilogy either and when she introduced me to Middle Earth and all it had to offer, I was sold.
I read the Hobbit as fast as I could anticipating the movie…The only problem is, it's coming out in three parts. Now, I don't know how many of you are fans of the movie and how many of you have read the book and look forward to the visualization of what you've read. Six months isn't a long time, but when you are waiting for a movie like this, it seems like a loooooong time.


It is a whole different ball game at Frederick this season. The parent Baltimore Orioles have stocked their Fast A, Carolina League affiliate with several minor league cream of the crop prospects, and these youngsters are running around the bases, scoring runs, making plays, pitching good baseball and winning lots of ball games.
Every fifth day, you can see 2017 BA #2 Orioles prospect and 2016 1st round draft pick out of the University of Illinois, RHP Cody Sedlock and 2017 BA #6 Orioles prospect and 2016 2nd round pick LHP Keegan Akin pitch.
At SS you'll find another 1st Rounder (2015) 20-year 6-3 BA #3 Orioles prospect, Ryan Mountcastle, who reminds many fans of former great Cal Ripken at the same position.
At 3B, you'll find another 20-year old, power hitting BA #8 Jomar Reyes, who the Orioles are looking down the road for the long ball that characterizes their everyday lineup now.
Fleet footed BA #7 Austin Hays, 2016 3rd rounder out of Jacksonville University covers the ground in center field and BA #24 Randolph Gassaway left field.
Splitting the catching and dh, power hitting BA #31 Yermin Mercedes rounds out the lineup.
At a game last week end, I had an unexpected thought when Frederick was at the plate. The Keys youngsters were so aggressive, hungary for a hit, and clobbering the ball I thought about the old 1927 New York Yankees "Murderers Row," (Combs, Koenig, Ruth, Gehrig, Meuse, and Lazzeri). While a stretch comparison, watch these youngster play at Frederick, AA- Bowie, AAA- Norfolk in coming seasons and mark my words, you may be seeing a couple major league superstars in the making.


Although some folks may point to the Beatles as the hottest pop culture phenomenon of the 1960s, I would direct your attention instead to a gentleman with a license to kill: James Bond, 007.
Think about it. During the 1960s, President John F. Kennedy was (famously) reading From Russia with Love by Ian Fleming, Sean Connery became a mega-star after the third 007 film, Goldfinger (1974), and many new TV series and films qualified as (politely-speaking) Bond knock-offs.
Before long, fans of secret agents could enjoy movie like those in the Dean Martin-fronted Matt Helm franchise (1966-1969) or James Coburn's Our Man Flint (1966) and In Like Flint (1967).
And on TV, the post-Bond spy boom gave the world The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (1964-1968), Get Smart (1965-1970) and Mission: Impossible (1966-1973) to name just a few spy-oriented productions.
But there is one other secret agent of the 1960s worthy of mentioning today. He is much younger than Flint, Helm, or even Bond.
He is agent Zero M…and he was memorably brought to life by none other than Kurt Russell on no less than three occasions.
Yep, Kurt Russell — not yet a teenager — starred in a series of TV commercials advertising a whole (brilliant) line of Mattel secret agent toys in the sixties.
Whether Zero-M was carrying a radio rifle (which I proudly count in my home office toy collection) a movie camera gun, or a sonic blaster, he was always ready for action.
So, here's a look back at one of the greatest spies of his generation.
Kurt Russell is Agent Zero-M.
Here's the secret agent, playing it cool, using the radio rifle.
Here's Agent Zero-M on a mission in the park. Trapped? Unarmed? Fat chance!
Now, Agent-Zero M goes on a critical mission with a sonic blaster. He must not fail!

Q: How can I close, in shell scripting, a Windows process locating it by its parameters? I use to run Python programs via the executable included in CygWin, for example:
c:\CygWin\bin\python2.7.exe /usr/local/bin/FunnyProgram.py
c:\CygWin\bin\python2.7.exe /usr/local/bin/BoringWordProcessor.py

Note that the /usr/local... stuff are the parameters part, not the executable program.
I am making a Windows shell script that pretends to close someone of them, for example "FunnyProgram.py". But I can not do:
taskkill /im "Funny*" /f

because all the operating system seems to see is:
C:\>tasklist | find "python" /i
python2.7.exe                 5012 Console                    1    13.240 KB

And there is no results at all if I do:
tasklist | find "Funny" /i

Neither can I find it by using SysInternals PSExec:

How can I detect the PID (in order to close it), or at least directly close, some specific program locating it by its parameters?
(I would like to do this in a Windows shell script, but additional command-line utilities are accepted if needed)
EDIT: Another method not working. If I do notepad test.txt, I can find it using PowerShell:
$process = "notepad.exe"
gwmi Win32_Process -Filter "name = '$process'" | select CommandLine

I save these two lines to "TestNotepad.ps1" and I do:
C:\>Powershell.exe -executionpolicy remotesigned -File TestNotepad.ps1
CommandLine
-----------
"C:\Windows\system32\notepad.exe"
"C:\Windows\system32\NOTEPAD.EXE" D:\test.txt

But for the file:
$process = "python2.7.exe"
gwmi Win32_Process -Filter "name = '$process'" | select CommandLine

I just get a simple:
C:\>Powershell.exe -executionpolicy remotesigned -File TestPython.ps1
CommandLine
-----------
"C:\CygWin\bin\python2.7.exe"

...with no parameters at all. Strange!

A: Windows shell:
C:\Python33\python.exe c:\helloworld.py

Powershell:
PS C:\Users\David> $process = "python.exe"
PS C:\Users\David> gwmi Win32_Process -Filter "name = '$process'" | select CommandLine

CommandLine
-----------
C:\Python33\python.exe  C:\helloworld.py

from windows shell calling python in cygwin\bin:
c:\cygwin\bin\python3.2m.exe c:\helloworld.py

Powershell:
PS C:\Users\David> $process = "python3.2m.exe"
PS C:\Users\David> gwmi Win32_Process -Filter "name = '$process'" | select CommandLine

CommandLine
-----------
C:\cygwin\bin\python3.2m.exe  C:\helloworld.py

A: This problem seems to come from the Python interpreter included in official CygWin repositories (as of today, v2.7.3).
Happily, the solution itself appears to be onto the own CygWin pgrep command.
Assuming this command line to run the Python process:
c:\CygWin\bin\python2.7.exe /usr/local/bin/FunnyProgram.py

--> To find the process we can use pgrep with the -f option (to search for full path):
$ pgrep -f -l FunnyProgram.py
2640 /usr/bin/python2.7 /usr/local/bin/FunnyProgram.py

--> To kill the process directly:
$ kill $(pgrep -f FunnyProgram.py)

I have no idea about why ps, tasklist or any other commands fail doing what pgrep does.
According to @DeveloperGuo, this isssue could be solved for v3 and laters.
Saddly, Python v2 and v3 scripts are not compatibles, so I hope this thread helps anyone arriving here in search of knowledge and wishdom :-) .

Some days I would rather be right than be like Jesus. There, I said it. And even if you weren't thinking it, I'm sure you've felt this way before.
If you're human (and I'm pretty sure you are), then at one time or another you've felt you are right. It's natural to feel your opinion is right, your perspective is right, your facts are right, and your approach to problem solving is right. Even when you your stance on controversial topics is "I am not fully qualified to have an opinion," that is still a stance you feel is right.
We need to have a certain measure of rightness in society to provide structure and healthy boundaries. There is rightness of behavior that prevents physical, sexual, and emotional abuse. There is rightness in morals to prevent undue pain and suffering. There is rightness in basic math so we can all agree on exact change when we purchase a pack of gum.
But, it's easy to get caught up in the feelings of rightness because rightness can give us a false sense of security. If we are right, we cannot be challenged. If we are right, we do not have to look any further at ourselves. If we are right, we don't have deal with any difficult emotions.
It's alluring. Pretty soon we manipulate our sense of right to fit our personal circumstances. The seductive pull can bring our standards well beyond societal norms and cross into the distorted realm of self-preservation. But, at its heart, rightness is just another word for pride.
Pride isolates us from God and others by assigning our judgment higher than God's. Make no mistake, judging yourself right is the same as judging someone else wrong. It is the opposite side of the same coin. We often fool ourselves into thinking it's not so bad, but the coin with tails showing rather than heads still holds the same value.
Instead of focusing on being right we are better off focusing our efforts on getting right with God by getting right with ourselves and getting right with others.
Forgive yourself for your indiscretions, improprieties, and sins.
Sometimes we cling to pride and rightness, not just because we want to avoid being wrong, but because we want to avoid our own shame.
All too often we choose to repeat in our minds the condemning voices of our parents or friends or even society rather than accept God's forgiveness for our transgression. It's easy to heap the burning coals onto judgment for ourselves – especially when find it so easy to the same to others.
Instead of offering forgiveness to our very soul, we believe it is right to hold our sin against us. Maybe we feel we are unworthy of forgiveness. Maybe we are not aware that we CAN offer forgiveness to our own self. Maybe it's just force of habit.
In any case, holding on to anger towards your past actions is a waste of energy and it's even pride cropping back up. If God has forgiven you (and He does so immediately after you ask), who are you to tell God that you deserve condemnation? If makes you free from judgment, who are you to insist He is wrong? He is the potter, you are only the clay.
Forgive others for disagreeing with you.
For Christians, our number one priority on this earth is to love God and love others. The great commission (of making disciples), rebuking sin, worshipping God, serving others, and giving generously are great practices but only as far as they come from a place of loving God and loving others.
When you argue with someone about minute, mostly irrelevant details, is that done from a place of love or rightness? When you post scathing remarks on social media because someone sinned against you, is that done from a place of love or rightness?
When you tell a member of a different religion that their beliefs are unfounded, is that done from a place of love or rightness? When you tell a fellow Christian they are too liberal or too conservative or too fundamentalist, is that done from a place of love or rightness?
By interacting from a place of rightness we tend to be forceful with our words and actions because we fail to see their hurts and their humanity. Instead, we see only their opinion and our anger against that "wrong" opinion. In our pride, we are holding another's wrongness against them.
There is certainly a place for rebuking of sin amongst believers. Absolutely. We are called to bring awareness of sin to our brothers and sisters in Christ.
Yet to approach someone humbly, we must first forgive them for coming to a different conclusion than ourselves. We cannot hold anyone's opinion against them and practice forgiveness at the same time.
Approaching those that disagree with you from a place of compassion and respect for their beliefs is a loving act. Inviting others to examine your opinion and interpretation of Biblical scriptures and stating your opinion as such and even leading them in prayer over the topic are great ways of gentle restoration.


Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the most ethical of all?
At any given time, it is important to be able to look yourself in the eye and believe you are doing the right thing. The "right thing" is a course of conduct we pursue with few or no reservations. The "right thing" is behaviour we would have no hesitation disclosing to those we want to think well of us. As in-house counsel, we should always be trying to do the right thing for our organizations and ensuring our colleagues do the same.
The fact in-house lawyers operate in a continual conflict of interest is clear. Our livelihoods are potentially at stake each time we decide we need to challenge either the conduct or the practices of those with whom we work — particularly our CEOs or our boards. Even where we don't expect that we will be fired, conflict with our colleagues is difficult and stressful.
However, challenge our clients we must. In Ontario, we are required by the Rules of Professional Conduct to confront our clients not just when they act fraudulently, criminally, or illegally, but also when they act "dishonestly." Such misconduct (by commission or omission) demands we advise the conduct is dishonest, illegal, or fraudulent, report up the ladder, and withdraw. Withdrawal may include resignation.
While it may be discouraging to consider the weight of our obligations, in-house lawyers should have it no other way. It is these very standards that preserve our status as legal professionals and prevent us all from being written off as the lackeys or hired guns of our organizations.
It is possible to meet these obligations. At a minimum, it takes self-awareness, including the ability to recognize the effects of the conflict of interest. You have to ask whether you are behaving differently because you might lose your job over this particular issue. If the answer is yes, you have to have the courage to mitigate the effect of that fear, and to act in spite of it.
Ultimately, you have to have the courage to resign with all of the consequences that entails. While it is possible to meet the challenge, being an ethical in-house lawyer is no easy task.
Organizations often hire in-house counsel because they recognize a need for change and improvement in the way they do business. Changing an organization is a difficult challenge and it is one that is never completed overnight. Changing policies and practices is one thing but changing employee attitudes and behaviour is entirely another. To effect change over the long term, it is important to maintain relationships to encourage colleagues to come to you with the information and questions that allow you to do your job. Approach the project of effecting cultural change with the longer term in mind.
In the same vein, remember not all ethical misconduct is created equal and it is absolutely fine to deal with different misconduct differently and some not at all. While more serious misconduct may require head-on confrontation, less serious misconduct can be dealt with through education and discussion and in ways that don't single out individuals but focuses on changing the culture and the environment. Setting priorities will help you decide which things you will take on and which you can deal with later.
While I am a big believer that it is crucial to work in an environment in which you can operate in keeping with your own values and conscience, it's important not to forget your personal opinion about what is ethically right is not necessarily the final word on what is ethically right for an organization.
At first I misunderstood him to mean "you have to be able to live with yourself when you look yourself in the eye," but as he continued to speak, I realized he meant that your version of "right" isn't necessarily the version of right. While it is clearly your job to ensure your organization operates honestly, ethically, and within the bounds of the law, you are not the ethical conscience of the organization. Before you provide advice, you are obliged to fully analyze an ethical situation from all angles and perspectives, just as you would a legal situation.
In a competitive company culture in which high performance is demanded and there has been no policy ethics, it is easy for employees to get the message that ethics don't matter and the expectation is employees should do what ever it takes to get the job done.
Sometimes all employees need is a cue that behaving ethically is expected and supported. The CLO is in a great position to do that simply by acting very consciously in an ethical way and by being clear that ethical considerations are an important part of the discussion. Conduct and advice that encourages ethical behaviour provides colleagues the direction and permission they need to act ethically and will effect positive change over time.

A request for a proposal is a crucial step in the sales cycle. It creates the change to get one step closer to a customer and a new project or deal. But writing a proposal is not easy.
Proposals come in many sizes and shapes, depending on the organization that asks for one. In some cases, it is better to avoid a formal proposal and opt for sending a letter outlining the products and services to be offered.
Following are some tips for writing a professional proposal.
In many cases, the customer just wants to see a short overview of deliverables with prices.
Customers are far more interested in the deliverables than in methodologies or processes. Quite bluntly, they just want the job to be done; how it is done is of secondary importance.
Customers want to cooperate with a business partner they can trust. To show that you are not only on the same wavelength, but also want to be their partner, share ideas that can help them.
As in many cases, it is the quality, not the quantity that counts. Limit the amount of pages, and make sure the proposal is about the customer. Focus on how you are going to solve the customer's problems.
will avoid misunderstandings and future complications.
The proposal must be accurate, so make sure to validate and double-check all data before presenting it. Check every small proposal detail and watch for typos and style mistakes.
Make sure that the right people receive the proposal on time. You can submit it by email or hand it over in person. The latter guarantees you a higher change of closing the deal.
Almost every organization needs technical writing due to the need for user guides, instruction manuals, quick guides, user manuals, white papers, product documentation, training materials, etc.
Since technical writing has become essential part of today's business and government, jobs can be found in almost any industry sector. The demand for technical writers is expected to grow, since enterprises need to communicate existing and new scientific and technical information to others.
Many technical writers prefer to specialize in a specific industry such as telecommunications, computers, bio-tech, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, health care, or manufacturing. This way, they can build expertise in e.g., software documentation, tutorials, white papers, or user guides.
Technical writing is as diverse and there is an overlap with marketing writing. Product instructions, reference and maintenance manuals, articles, project proposals, training materials, technical reports, catalogs, brochures, online documentation and help systems, Web pages, multimedia presentations, parts lists, assembly instructions, white papers, sales promotion materials, tenders, RFI and RFP, and tech blogs require the skills of technical writers.
Technical writers enable enterprises to tell their users how to use their products and services. Those users can be consumers, system integrators, resellers, scientists, engineers, plant executives, line workers, production managers, but also product reviewers, tech journalists, and tech bloggers.
Technical writing is different from marketing writing. Technical writing describes the current situation; marketing writing also covers what will be. The writing style between the two is therefore very different. Good technical writing is concise and easy-to-read. In many cases, technical writers are also expected to deal with the graphics, layout, and document design.
Thinking of becoming a technical writer? Then look for a technical writing course near you. It normally also includes an internship to get hands-on working experience.

Flames take down Blues
CALGARY — Michael Frolik scored three times, including two short-handed goals, as the Calgary Flames won 7-4 Monday night against the red-hot St. Louis Blues. After seeing a 5-2 third period lead get cut to 5-4 and with the Blues pressing for the equalizer, Frolik broke in alone and fired a shot under the crossbar at 16:49.
CALGARY — Michael Frolik scored three times, including two short-handed goals, as the Calgary Flames won 7-4 Monday night against the red-hot St. Louis Blues.
After seeing a 5-2 third period lead get cut to 5-4 and with the Blues pressing for the equalizer, Frolik broke in alone and fired a shot under the crossbar at 16:49.
The 28-year-old Czech completed his second career hat trick with an empty netter with 35 seconds remaining, sending hats flying onto the ice at the raucous Scotiabank Saddledome.
Sean Monahan, with a pair, Joe Colborne and Mark Giordano also scored for Calgary (29-35-5). Dougie Hamilton finished with a career-high three assists while Johnny Gaudreau also had three helpers.
Paul Stastny, with two, Scottie Upshall and Kevin Shattenkirk scored for St. Louis (41-21-9), which had its six-game winning streak snapped.
The Blues lost a chance to move ahead of Dallas into top spot in the Central Division. They remain tied in points with Stars, who now hold a game in hand.
Tied 2-2 after the first, Monahan gave Calgary the lead at 5:13 when he wristed a perfect shot over the shoulder of Jake Allen.
After Mark Giordano's power-play goal at 11:03 made it 4-2 and led to Allen getting pulled, Monahan made it a three-goal cushion at 13:37 beating Anders Nilsson through the legs on a breakaway.
Not going down without a fight, Shattenkirk made it 5-3, taking just 10 seconds to convert an early third-period power play.
St. Louis got to within one on Stastny's breakaway goal at 13:31.
Jaden Schwartz nearly tied it, putting a shot off the goal post on the last power play just seconds before Folik put the game away.
With 31 stops, Joni Ortio improved to 3-7-3. Nilsson, who had 12 saves in relief of Allen, ended up with the loss to fall to 10-13-2. Allen had 13 stops.
Calgary struck first at 10:24 on a flukey goal.
Allen went behind his net to stop a dump-in only for the puck to strike the stanchion in the corner and bounce wickedly into the slot where Colborne buried his 13th into an open net.
The lead lasted only nine seconds with Upshall beating Ortio over the shoulder from a sharp angle.
Notes: Calgary's TJ Brodie (upper body) and Sam Bennett (upper body) both missed their second game… Flames Matt Stajan hasn't scored in 28 games… St. Louis had won the previous six meetings between the two teams… Gaudreau increases his NHL-leading home point total to 51 (23 goals, 28 assists). He's five up on Chicago's Patrick Kane.

More details have been revealed on the father of Stephen Paddock, the gunman who shot and killed 58 people in Las Vegas in early October.
Benjamin Hoskins Paddock was a fugitive bank robber who was on the FBI's top ten most wanted list until 1977.
But it has also been revealed that he was a self-ordained minister who married couples in Las Vegas and had plans to open a church there. Investigators are looking into every aspect of Paddock's family life, reported the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
He was found one year after he was removed from the most wanted list in 1978 in Oregon. He had been running a bingo parlor, it has been reported.
He tried to exploit a loophole in Oregon by starting a church, allowing him to pocket some of the money from bingo. He was caught in 1987 and charged with running an illegal gambling operation. Two years later, he tried to start another church in Vegas, the Review-Journal reported.
"He wanted [to set the church up] in Nevada because he liked to go there and gamble," Bernie Sue Warthen, a friend of Benjamin Paddock, was quoted by MailOnline as saying. Warthen said he invited her to the city in the late 1980s so they could start the Holy Life Congregation, which never materialized.
Officials still can't figure out a motive for Stephen Paddock's attack.
Associate criminology professor at the University of Nebraska, Joseph Schwartz, cautioned against drawing conclusions about Stephen Paddock based on his family or his antisocial behavior.
"If he had a high predisposition for criminal and violent behavior, we likely would have seen that earlier in his life," Schwartz said.
According to Reuters, a complete picture of his finances is still being assembled by investigators who are trying to understand what drove an apparently wealthy retiree to haul 23 guns up to a hotel suite before commencing one of the deadliest shootings in U.S. history.

Home Actors Robbie Amell – Cousin (Stephen Amell), Wife, Movies and TV Shows
Robbie Amell – Cousin (Stephen Amell), Wife, Movies and TV Shows
Robbie Amell's career began in the 2000s, but within a very short time, he went from precocious talent, whose first role in Cheaper by the Dozen 2 won a few lines, to an internationally acclaimed actor. Although his journey was not without some setbacks, the Canadian actor, who became famous for his roles in series such as Revenge, Life With Derek, The Tomorrow People, among others, has become an actor with a remarkable reputation in the industry. Between his very pretty face and his outstanding works, there is a lot to know about him, read on.
Robbie Amell's Bio
mell was born on April 21, 1988, in Toronto, Ontario, and grew up with his sister with parents Jo and Rob Amell, who deal in custom jewelry. The siblings began their careers as actors and models at an early age, but Robbie eventually became more passionate about the company.
His first few assignments were in advertising before he snatched roles in high school plays, including the role of Picasso in Lapin Agile and in The Importance of Being Earnest. After high school, Amell continued to play while attending the Sir John A Macdonald Collegiate in Toronto in 2006. His growing interest in acting led him to join the Canadian Studios Acting Academy to further refine his skills.
Films and TV Shows
Long before he appeared in the famous CW series The Tomorrow's People, The Scooby-Doo and The Flash, which made him very famous, Robbie Amell played Daniel Murtaugh in Cheaper by the Dozen 2 and managed to secure a few lines in the movie show, which was intended as a non-speaking role in his attempt to act.
The actor continued to make other TV series, such as the series Life With Derek in the role of Max, Casey McDonald's friend. He received considerable acclaim for his roles on TV shows such as the ABC family film Picture This, the Nickelodeon series True Jackson, VP, and True Love Interest. He also attracted the coveted attention of healthy fans on the CN series Unnatural History and Pretty Little Liars.
His next applause came with his role in the horror movie Left for Dead. This gave him the chance to join the cast of Scooby-Doo! The mystery begins. His impact was also felt in the show and it became one of the most-watched shows on Cartoon Network ever. This gave him the chance to play the role again the following year. It wasn't long before he got his most important role to date in CW's sci-fi drama The Tomorrow People. As the lead actor in the 2013 series, he was out to take down the bad people. His celebrity role in the series, which is a remake of the British series of the same name, marked the beginning of his consistent appearance in other TV works such as The Duff, The Flash, Nine Lives and The X-Flies.
His cousin Stephen Amell
If you suspected that Robbie Amell is related to award-winning actor Stephen Amell, then your suspicion is correct. They're cousins. While Robbie started acting in 2005, Stephen started a year earlier than him. And now, like his cousin, he has a long filmography. However, he seems to have won more awards and nominations than Robbie, with about six wins and 20 nominations, including Gemini and Teen Choice Awards.
He is best known for his role as Oliver Queen and Green Arrow in the CW superhero series Arrow and its spin-offs. Stephen has gone beyond acting and has guest appearances in US promotion and video games. The actor received his education at St. Andrew's College, a private boys' school. In the sci-fi action movie Code 8, he starred and produced together with his brother Robbie. Other TV series in which the Canadian star actor has appeared include The Vampire Diaries, Hung and Heartland.
Robbie Amel's wife – Italia Ricci
Robbie Amell withholds his marriage and his private life. But it is known that he has been married since October 15, 2016. The name of his wife is Italia Ricci. She is a Canadian actress and widely known for her portrayal of Emily Rhodes, the White House Chief of Staff in Designated Survivor.
The two began dating in 2008 and became engaged after 4 years. One year after their engagement they made the covenant for life. The ever-smiling stunner of Italian descent was born on October 29, 1986, in Richmond Hill, Ontario, the same city where her husband was born. She attended Queen's University and started her acting career in 2007 when she played in American Pie.

Q: $addFields in mongoDB aggregation pipeline I'm using the cloud mongoDB atlas online version of the aggregation pipeline builder.
My document looks like this:
_id: 'a314314133351sd4d'
type: 'Test_993das'

What I want to achieve is that I get an custom field with name customField that counts all the documents that have a substring Test in type:
customField: 6

However when I use stage $addFields nothing works with strings. Even stuff from the docs.
It seems that $regexMatch is not recognized in addFields stage even though the docs suggest this should be possible.
{ $addFields: { customField: { $regexMatch: { input: "$type", regex: "Test_*" } }

A: As noted by tom slabbaert, $regexMatch is available only on MongoDB 4.2.x, also, your regex is not valid (should either be Test_ or Test_.*).
However, the syntax you are using will only produce customField: true (or false), not a count. Counts are aggregate functions and therefore need to operate on a group of documents. An aggregation pipeline operates on each single document unless you use a grouping stage like $group, $bucket or $count.
What this means is that, in your example, $addField will evaluate the regex and add the field on each document. So probably you want something like:
[
  { $match: { 'type': { $regex: /Test_.*/ } } },
  { $count: 'customField' }
]

Also, if your regex should match only the start of the string, you will get better performance if you anchor the regex, like this: /^Test_.*/

A: {
  $addFields: {
    hasNewMessage: {
      $cond: { if: {$gt: [{ $size: "$messages" }, 0]}, then: true, else: false}
    }
  }
}

The audition of Iglesias
Photo: Sergi Alcàzar
Barcelona. Friday, 13 September 2019. 18:03
Read in Catalan
The investiture of Pedro Sánchez is racing towards the ridiculous and, dangerously, the fifth-largest economy of the European Union is starting to seem very like a play with a tragic ending. The latest move by Pablo Iglesias, offering himself to PSOE for Sánchez to give them a trial of a year in the cabinet in exchange for Unidas Podemos guaranteeing its support during the four years of the legislature is among the greatest nonsense I've heard in recent weeks. In other words, they kick you out of the executive and you, in response, give them your votes for free for four years. Nobody believes that. Above all because it's very foolish. In that race to win the narrative on the left of the reasons for a new election, the leader of Podemos has braked too late. That said, Sánchez cannot behave as if he had a majority in the Spanish Parliament he doesn't have; but Iglesias shouldn't improvise every day to demonstrate PSOE's lack of will to assemble a coalition government.
It seems the cards have been dealt in the variety show Spanish politics has become and the public argument is that there's no trust to make a new executive. That's true, but if PSOE had surveys which, far from giving them greater gains at the ballot boxes would be predicting bad results, trust would become of second importance. Because Sánchez and Iglesias can't see eye to eye, but nor can Sánchez and Rivera, or Rivera and Casado; between them, they've all gone from adversaries to enemies. With this attitude, so Spanish, there would be no coalition governments anywhere and the public would be subjected to permanent repeated elections until the best conditions possible are achieved. In Catalonia, as a country of pacts, for years coalition governments have been debated, negotiated and agreed. And the existing disagreements, and they are not minor, don't lead to the impossibility of conforming executives.
Sánchez is facing down the last week before the legislature collapses under its own weight and everything heads towards a new election on 10th November and prepared to do a Rajoy if he receives the assignment from king Felipe VI to form a government: leave the offer go as he's no guarantee of being elected. Only a theatrical panic on the part of one of the two contenders could revert this situation which, today, appears very consolidated with daggers drawn. Well, something worse could happen for Sánchez: Iglesias could offer him his votes for free and go across to the opposition, prepared to turn the legislature into agony for PSOE. The objective would be to force another election in a year, in worse scenario for PSOE and hypothetically better for Unidas Podemos. But careful, there's also the right-wing trio. Sánchez would end up fatally wounded but it would be a true civil war in the Spanish left.

Gambhir receives another e-mail from ISIS-Kashmir from the same e-mail ID
Former cricketer and BJP MP Gautam Gambhir has received another e-mail from ISIS-Kashmir, just days after he received death threat from the same e-mail ID.
November 28, 2021 12:38 IST
SHOCKER:Vicky Kaushal & Katrina Kaif wedding not happening, says relative
This time, the mail accessed by IANS, read: "Delhi Police and IPS Shweta can't uproot anything. Our spies are also present in the police." IPS Shweta Chauhan is currently serving as DCP at the Central District of the national capital.
The mail, which was received at 1.37 a.m. on Sunday, further read that all information about the East Delhi BJP MP is being received.
Just 4 days ago, Gambhir had received a death threat from the same source. "We have received an e-mail from ISIS-Kashmir on the official ID of MP Gautam Gambhir at 9.32 p.m. on November 23. The mail states death threats to the MP and his family," read the complaint filed by Gambhir's PS Gaurav Arora to DCP Shweta Chauhan.
Later, in the evening on the same day, Gambhir received another e-mail with an attachment showing video footage of his residence which indicated that a reconnaissance had been conducted by ISIS-K. The Cyber Cell of the Delhi police traced the location of the threat mail to Karachi, Pakistan.
Sources said that the breakthrough in the investigation was achieved by the newly created Intelligence Fusion and Strategic Ops unit.

The security arrangements outside Gambhir's residence have been already tightened since he received the first threatening e-mail, four days back. Delhi Police Commissioner Rakesh Asthana, too, has been closely following the case.
Notably, the 40-year-old cricketer-turned-politician Gambhir, a staunch nationalist, has been extremely vocal about the issue of terrorism in Kahmir. Earlier in December 2019 as well, Gambhir had approached the Delhi Police alleging death threats to him and his family members from an international number. He had then also urged the police to lodge a case and ensure the safety and security of his family.

Ray Lynam is an Irish country music singer, born on 29 November 1951 in Moate, Co. Westmeath.

Career
Ray was born in Moate, County Westmeath to Patrick, a baker, and Nora, a shopkeeper. He was one of three sons, his brothers being Padraic and John. His first venture into the music scene was when he played saxophone for a local group "the Merrymen" while still attending the local Carmelite College Secondary School.  By 1969 he had joined and was lead singer for the group Ray Lynam and the Hillbillies and had their first Irish Charts success with a cover of the Buck Owens song "Sweet Rosie Jones".

During the Wembley Country Music Festival of 1974, he teamed up with one of Irelands leading female country singers, Philomena Begley and went on to record many hit duets with her, including My Elusive Dreams in 1975.

Style
Lynam's singing voice is closely modeled on those American country singers that influenced his early career, such as George Jones and Merle Haggard, rather than the more popular (in Ireland at that time) Country and Irish style.  He has had hits on the Irish charts during the 1970s and 1980s with cover versions of some of their well-known tracks including He Stopped Loving Her Today and If We're Not Back in Love by Monday.

New York thrives on public transit. We trust our bus and train drivers. They are supposed to be professionals prepared for even the worst situations. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Repairs go wrong; drivers get distracted; accidents happen in the blink of an eye.
When a bus, train or other mass transit vehicle goes out of control, the results are often catastrophic. Between the number of bodies and the speed and weight of a bus, subway car or train, other drivers and passengers can suffer serious injuries.
Who Is At Fault If I Am In A Mass Transit Accident?
Every case is different. Mass transit accidents often involve buses, shuttles, trains or subway cars. Any vehicle meant to transport crowds of people is a mass transit vehicle. Your accident may also include other drivers, mass transit operators and contractors like the city or state. In some cases, witnesses may be needed and other passengers may play a part in the accident. The details of your case will determine who is involved in your suit overall.
Does This Mean The City Is Responsible?
Many mass transit vehicles are contracted by the city. This does not necessarily make the city responsible. Mechanics, drivers and other businesses may have a role in liability.
A Friend Or Family Member Was With Me. Can We Use The Same Attorney?

JW Marriott Guanacaste, Costa Rica
by Luxury Travel Advisor
Mar 7, 2011 1:00am
The Presidential Suite
You don't have to look further than JW Marriott Guanacaste to see why Costa Rica means "rich coast." Tucked into Hacienda Pinilla, a private residential estate on the north Pacific coast near Tamarindo, and perched on the secluded Mansita Beach, it is also an easy drive to fishing villages, cattle farms and sugarcane plantations.
All of the guest rooms are identical in size (556 square feet), design and amenities but vary according to view: garden, pool, ocean or oceanfront. We say our oceanfront room No. 326 is perfect for families with two double beds, a spacious bathroom with a soaking tub, separate shower and vanity, and a generous balcony with sweeping views across the resort's manicured lawns to Mansita Beach. On the other hand, the 20 One-Bedroom Suites are more than double the size of the guest rooms and have a living room separate from the bedroom. Junior Suite No. 424 is our top pick as it is set on a corner with a view of the beach from one balcony and the Pacific Ocean from the other. The one-bedroom Presidential Suite is like a luxury apartment with a large living and dining room opening to a plunge pool and direct access to the beach. We loved the hacienda-style décor throughout the resort with its calm, neutral colors, cool tiled floors and natural timbers.
Note: The resort has 25 connecting rooms, and private butler service is available on request. Luxury travel advisors can contact Director of Sales and Marketing Mayra Galeana ([email protected]; 011-506-2201-5318) or Senior Travel Sales Manager Alejandro Sancho ([email protected]; 011-506-2681-2000) with questions and requests.
With limited off-site dining options, JW Marriott Guanacaste goes all out on the food front with four top-notch restaurants. Sabanero (named after Costa Rica's traditional cowboy) is a showcase for local and imported steaks. Mansita has an international menu, while Tamarine is Asian fusion. Reserve a table on Tamarine's open-air terrace, with views to the main pool, and order a Tamarine Splash made with mandarin vodka, tamarindo (an exotic local fruit) and peach juice. Seafood-inspired Azul Grill overlooks the beach. Tip: Make sure that you order the Costa Rican ceviche. Hint: The staff can arrange a private table on Mansita Beach for a romantic dinner under the stars. Reserve at least a day in advance. For larger parties, contact Director of Food and Beverage Frederic Cappello ([email protected]rriott.com; 011-506-2681-2004).
The spa includes 18 treatment rooms: 10 on the upper floor, including two with a larger garden terrace used for wet treatments and rituals, and eight on the lower floor, including two couples' rooms with private gardens, two with ceiling-mounted Vichy showers and four individual palapas (outdoor pavilions). A signature treatment is the 90-minute Guanacaste Ritual, which starts with a herbal body wrap followed by a soak in a hydrotherapy hot tub and a sleep-inducing massage. We recommend top therapist Marsenette Leal for this and other massage treatments. Note: The outdoor post-treatment terrace is a wonderful place to relax afterward. Apart from parent-supervised manicures and pedicures, there are no treatments for children under 18. Yoga, meditation and Pilates classes are available on request. The spa is very popular with guests, so book in advance.
Both the men's and women's spa areas have a sauna, steam room and pool. However, the ladies' section is larger and can accommodate wedding groups for tailored treatments; these must be booked well in advance. Contact Spa Manager Nathalie Tosso ([email protected] hotels.com; 011-506-2681-2203) for information.
Golfers have access to Hacienda Pinilla's 18-hole ocean-side course. Guests also have access to the private beach club on neighboring Avellanas Beach (within walking distance from the resort along the beach) and the Langosta Beach Club in nearby Tamarindo. Tours from horseback riding to zip-lining above the canopy of a forest can also be booked with the local Swiss Travel tour company via Head Concierge Christy Titles ([email protected]; 011-506-2681-2000). Note: The resort doesn't allow pets.
The best time to visit is the dry season between December and April. Book three to six months ahead, and up to a year for Christmas and New Year's, which is the busiest period. The green (rainy) season is May to November with the heaviest rainfall in September and October. Liberia International Airport—with direct flights from Miami, Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, Newark, Chicago, Minneapolis and Charlotte—is an hour by car. Guests can also arrive by helicopter; there's a helipad next to the resort.
JW Marriott Guanacaste is close to such worldclass beaches as Tamarindo, Langosta and Avellanas.
