[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/llucbrell/audrey2.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/llucbrell/audrey2)

## View Control for Command Line Interface

When we build a CLI (Command Line Interface) we can find some troubles. While the software stays small it's easy to mantain and work with it. But as much a it grows... It could be a work for something out of space.

Click this [link](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model%E2%80%93view%E2%80%93controller) if you'r interested in the MVC architecture style that Audrey want to apply.

## Specifications

This code try to complement other CLI tools like commander, etc., to implement the MVC over terminal apps.
If you bind Audrey with this tools you can get a complete functional controller.
Commander and others update the model. Audrey give you the power of update view/s in several ways..

Audrey it's build as a nodeJS module, precisely as an clousure object factory. In that way, Audrey doesn't inffer in the code of your app.

Version 1 is now deprecated.

Version two of Audrey introduce the concepts of seed and scions. In that way, now audrey-two is **more flexible and customizable**.

## What it does?

Feed Audrey with object errors and data extracted from your command actions. This carnivorous plant get charge of the output console display and give to your users a little of sugar rather than only an ugly output option.

![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/llucbrell/audrey2/master/squeme.png)

You can combine lots of views by passing them to audrey. So you get more control of what you display and the way you do. Of course, using audrey, you don't need to think so much about code-flow.

If you feed Audrey with a header, body, footer & data for displaying...
It'll grow big and strong!

## Install v2.0

Example
```
$ npm install --save audrey-two
```

## Usage

Example
```js
var audrey2= require('audrey-two');
var audrey= audrey2('nameOfView', myTerminalDisplay);

//run your command and pass error objects to audrey

audrey.feed("viewName", objectView);
//if it's and error code start with "E"
audrey.err("E02", "You'll be a deeeentist...");
//Warnings Start in "W"
audrey.err("W01", "A plant from out Space!");
//you can show success on the console too
audrey.err("S001", "I'm Alive!");
//or pass some auxiliar to print in the same line
adrey.err("S002", "This is a new kind of plant!", objectView.advise);
audrey.encore();
```
## Debugger

Audrey-two debugger treat the erros as strings, never break the flow of your program. Is builded to guide your users throught the use of your program. You can pass two simple strings or two strings and an auxiliar object that will be printed on the console.

![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/llucbrell/audrey2/master/captura2.png)

## Printing

With Audrey you can print in different ways.
You can print all the view, as if you click on a link. The browser load the web-page at once.

Example
```js
var audrey2= require('audrey-two');
var audrey= audrey2('nameOfView', myTerminalDisplay);

//run your command and pass error objects to audrey

audrey.feed('FeedMe', objectViewFeed);
audrey.feed('Seymour', objectVSeymour);

audrey.encore(); //--> print the last replanted view
//print--> the objectSeymour

audrey.sing("FeedMe"); //--> print the view with the name
//print--> objectFeedMe
```

Audrey doesn't print nothing untill "adrey.encore()" or "sing()" method is called. And then everything it's printed with the custom choices you added into the views.

## Data injection

Audrey also has methods to inject directly data to the views.

In the current view

Example
```js
//write directly into the body
audrey.write(data);
//write on different line samea as console.log
audrey.writeLine(data);

//write where you decide, on the header, body or footer
audrey.fertilise("nameOfproperty","value","color", "blockStructure");
audrey.fertilize(object, "blockStructure");
//object example
  object{name:"??audreyInformation",
         value: "this is a CLI view controller",
         color:"yellow" };
```
Into one particular view

Example
```js
audrey.fertzView(object, "blockStructure", viewName);
```

## Debug mode... turn off!

You can not execute the error debugger by passing a boolean false to the method. By this method, audrey only print the header, the body and the footer if you include some. It xcludes the execution of error list. This option is good for make --verbose cli option for your apps.

![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/llucbrell/audrey2/master/captura.png)

Example
```js
audrey.debug(false);
```

## Custom Object

This is the view of the MVC. You can customize almoust everything in Audrey View. The view is divided, as a basic HTML does.

>Header

>Body

>Footer

You must use this parts to organize your view. Include name components inside this arrays and define them outside using their name without the taggy.

Look at this terminal options defined before send it to Audrey.

Example
```js
var terminal-view={
          header: [ ">>Title" , "%%symbol"],
          Title: "this is Audrey2",
          symbol: "o",
          colors:{
           Title: "red",
           symbol: chalk.blue}
        };
}
```

## View Components

The view components, are replaced in version 2 by seeds. This seeds are node modules ready to do some common view tasks. For example, write tables or write strings that change with the errors you passed to audrey.

To use them you have to install the custom you want, and then bound it to audrey with a custom symbol.

example seed installation
```js
$ npm --save install audrey-sewcolor
```

You must to bind the seeds before console printing command (encore/sing) of course, if the view is going to include this component.

example binding
```js
audrey.seed(["audrey-sewcolor-&0"]);
//now every &0 audrey find, it will associate to this module-component
//you can pass more than one audrey-seed, as an array of strings
```

Every component is more or less as if it was an html tag. They have two characthers (taggy) you put at the beggining of the name. You have to include this taggies only into the header, body and footer's array or audrey that's where audrey will look and if they arn't audrey not see your components.

Example
```js
var view=
{header:["&0brand","&0brand2",">>advise"]
 body:["%errorsBar"],
 footer:["&mycopyright"]}
```

**caveat** the only tag reserved is ">>" is the two charcther taggy you can't associate with a seed. It's included in audrey by default for printing strings, as you can include it into your views.

## Seeds

Here you have a short list of components you can find in npm. Of course you can write your own components, look at this link.

If you want to search for audrey-seeds just look for in npm

* [audrey-copyright](https://www.npmjs.com/package/audrey-copyright): "string" | get two or more words. First, license's name and then the author, add the copyright symbol
* [adrey-sewcolor](https://www.npmjs.com/package/audrey-sewcolor): "string" | change color of the string with the errors
* [audrey-errsign](https://www.npmjs.com/package/audrey-sewcolor):  "string" | change color symbol with errors you can use it as jasmine/mocha error checker. Write one symbol for each error, using 3 different colors.
* [audrey-sewcolor-text](https://www.npmjs.com/package/audrey-sewcolor-text): ["three","srting","array"] | three strings that change if there are errors or not. If it's not a color defined uses the success, warning, error colors.
* [audrey-tables](https://www.npmjs.com/package/audrey-tables): {array:[["array","of", "arrays"]["each", "array", "for"]["each", "line.", "Colors"]["only", "with", "chalk"]], align: ["letter", "for", "column"]}

You'll find more info and examples, in the readme of every audrey-seed.

Take a look at adrey-two with audrey-tables and audrey-copyright
![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/llucbrell/audrey2/master/captura3.png)

## Scions

The scions are seeds that require a little more power for running. For example, interactive CLI ask, response.. animations etc,. Audrey opens a forked_process_child and when the scion closes this process, audrey-two recuperates the control.
You only have to attach the scion as if it would be a seed but the first character of the taggy must be an "x".

Look at this examples..

* [audrey-jaskit](https://www.npmjs.com/package/audrey-jaskit) module.
* [audrey-images](https://www.npmjs.com/package/audrey-images) module.
* [audrey-animation](https://www.npmjs.com/package/audrey-animation) module.

## Colors

If you want to add colors to your view, you only have to add a property colors with an object of whatever component you want to color.

Example
```js
  var view=
 {header:[">>brand","?&brand2","%%advise"]
  body:["%%errorsBar"],
  footer:["?&mycopyright"],
  colors:{
  brand: "red",
  advise: "green",
  mycopyright:"blue"
  }}
```

Example
```js
  var red= "red";  //other colors as green
  view.colors.advise= red;
```
Audrey also gives you chalk suport colors. But you have to install this module or node will bring you an error.

Example
```js
  var chalk= require('chalk');
  var red= chalk.red.bold.underline;
  view.colors.advise= red;
```

## More  usefull methods

* replant('nameOfView') --> sets a view ready for print with encore
* getErrors() --> return an array with the errors injected to audrey
* getViews() --> return the views which whom you feed audrey
* getTaggies() --> return the taggies that audrey have associated

## Dependencies

Audrey-two make use of...

* [chalk](https://www.npmjs.com/package/chalk) module for the color display.

People and plants really appreciate your great code!

Q: How many trees with height $h$ are there? Given $n, h\in\Bbb{N}$, let $f(n, h)$ be the number of rooted trees with $n$ vertices and height $h$. How can we compute $f$?
Let's denote by $r$ the root of a tree. Here, the height of a tree is the maximum distance between $r$ and one of it's vertices.
What I've noticed so far:

*

*It's easy to see that $h = 1$ can only be achieved by the star graph, so $f(n, 1) = 1$.

*For $h = 2$, notice that the subtrees rooted on the neighborhood of $r$ must have heights of at most $1$, i.e., be star graphs. We have $n-1$ vertices to "spend" on those stars, so the problem becomes finding the number of natural solutions to $x_1 + 2x_2 + \dots + (n-1)x_{n-1} = n-1$ (here, $x_i$ is the number of stars with $i$ vertices), which is $P(n-1)$, the number of partitions of $n-1$. However, we must exclude the solution $(n-1, 0, \dots, 0)$ for which the graph is a star (and have height $1$), so $f(n, 2) = P(n-1)-1$.

*For $h = n-2$, there must be a branch with $n-2$ vertices, so there is exactly one vertex who's not part of this branch and there are $n-2$ possibilities for it's father (it can't be the last vertex of the branch), so $f(n, n-2) = n-2$.

*It's also easy to see that $h = n-1$ can only be achieved by the path graph for which $r$ is one of the extremes, so $f(n, n-1) = 1$.
The case $h=2$ gave me the indication that this can be a very hard problem. I wonder if some form of smart recursion could lead to a relatively simple (or at least computable) solution.

A: We will look at all possible trees at different heights, let $h_0$ be the root, $h_1$ height $1$, $h_2$ height $2$, $\dots$, and $h_{h}$ height $h$.
Furthermore let $k_i$ be the possible number of vertices at $h_i$.
Thus $k_0 = 1$, namely there is precisely $1$ root. Furthermore $k_1 \in \{1,\dots,(n-1)-(h-1)\}$, namely there must be at least $1$ vertex at height $1$ and there can be at most $(n-1)-(h-1) = n-h$, because there are $n-1$ vertices left at this point, and we still need $h-1$ vertices to reach height $h$.
Next at height $h$ we have $k_2 \in \{1,\dots,(n - 1 - k_1) - (h-2)\}$, because there are $n-1-k_1$ vertices left and we still need $h-2$ to reach height $h$.
Continuing gives $$k_i \in \{1,\dots,(n-1-k_1-\cdots-k_{i-1}) - (h-i)\}$$
for $i \in \{1,\dots,h-1\}$ and for $k_h$ we have
$$k_h = n-1-k_1-\cdots -k_{h-1}$$
because all vertices that are left must be placed at height $h$.
Next we consider the number of possibilities at each height.
On height $h_i$ there are $k_i$ vertices and they are connected in a certain manner with the $k_{i-1}$ vertices at height $h_{i-1}$. Call this number $g_{k_i}$.
We have $g_{k_0} = 1$ and $g_{k_1} = 1$, anyone knowing what the other $g_{k_i}$ are is very welcome at this point!
The last step is to add over all possible $k_i$, this gives
$$
  f(n,h) = g_{k_0} \sum_{k_1=1}^{(n-1)-(h-1)} g_{k_1} \sum_{k_2=1}^{(n-1-k_1)-(h-2)} g_{k_2} \sum_{k_3} \cdots \sum_{k_{h-1}=1}^{(n-1-k_1-\cdots-k_{h-2})-(h-(h-1))} g_{k_{h-1}} g_{k_h}.
$$
This answer is far from complete, but I hope it might give some structure to the problem.

Robotics Teams To Compete At Nationals
GLC Armstrong Creek's two extra-curricular robotics teams are preparing to compete at this weekend's FIRST Lego League SE National competition, after qualifying at recent regional competitions.
The FIRST LEGO League Challenge is a friendly competition, with teams of students aged 9 to 16 years designing, building, testing, and programming a LEGO robot that can complete missions on a table-top course. In addition to creating a robot, teams also have an innovation project to present to judges. The theme of this year's innovation project centred on energy.
This year, GLC Armstrong Creek had two teams take part in the Challenge – SEMATICS 101 and SEMATICS 102:
The SEMATICS 101 team, made up of six talented Year 6 students, won the Robot Performance Award and were runners up for the Champions Award for their LEGO robot at the Werribee Regional competition on Friday 18 November. The team's innovation project centred on developing a way of making small amounts of electricity to offset the energy used by devices in stand-by mode.
The SEMATICS 102 team is comprised of five innovative Middle School students (Years 7 – 9), whose robot, Torg, won the Robot Design Award at the Richmond Regional Event on Saturday 5 November. Their coach Greg Hollett also took home the Coaches Award at the same event. For their innovation project, the team received advice from professionals from Viva Energy's The Energy Hub to develop a concept for a ship that is capable of making hydrogen in electrolysers using solar power and sea water.
The two teams are jointly coached by GLC Armstrong Creek teacher Jane Hollett and her husband Greg Hollett, with the program one of several extra-curricular activities open to College students.
Having qualified at the two regional events, the two teams will compete against teams from Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia at the FIRST LEGO League National SE Competition which is being held on Saturday 3 December in Noble Park.

Sonia Williams
On a journey to Austria in 1962 Sonia met two gentlemen fly fishing on a lake amidst the mountains. One of them was Professor Josef Dobner a well known sculptor from the Vienna Academy.
In their conversation Sonia explained how much she would like to study painting in Austria. Dobner said he knew Willi Goetzl a painter who took some pupils, so Sonia wrote to him and after some consideration he agreed to teach her.
Willi Goetzl a student and friend of the famous Austrian painter Franz Wiegele, were well studied in the academic traditions of Viennese art, unfortunately Wiegele died in his studio during a bombing raid in 1944.
Goetzl lived in Villach and had a deep love of nature, he played the zither and lived a life of benign simplicity. His art was a form of communion with nature and he was unswayed by the many movements of modernism, yet his individualism showed itself in his sense of colour.
Willi Goetzl was wounded on the Eastern Front, which as an official war artist, he had portrayed picturesquely with none of it's horrors, and some years later he passed on all his love of nature and his artistic knowledge to Sonia who thereby gained a strong formative grounding. With her own insights, she has remained true to her training and is a very accomplished painter in landscape, portraiture and still life in oils and watercolours, having held at many exhibitions in and around Norfolk.

November is National Family Caregivers Month. Columns this month will feature updated versions of some of Keystone Elder Law's previous articles about caregiving. Today's article was originally published in 2015.
For those who are caregivers, life when caregiving responsibilities are reduced or end may be difficult to imagine.
Caregiving responsibilities may be reduced or changed when the recipient of care moves from home to a care facility, such as a personal care home or nursing home. Caregiving responsibilities often end due to the death of the care recipient.
Either way, caregivers may experience a myriad of emotions. The variety, depth and breadth of these emotions will depend on such factors as the caregiver's personality, the relationship between the caregiver and care recipient, and the extent of caregiving responsibilities.
A variety of reasons exist as to why caregivers may have difficulty acknowledging/processing their emotions until after caregiving has ended. The tasks associated with caregiving may be so time-consuming or socially isolating that little opportunity exists to reflect on oneself and seek the support of others. In addition, caregiving may be physically and emotionally draining, leaving only enough energy for activities deemed necessary.
Initially, former caregivers may feel a sense of relief that the responsibilities have ended and now there is time for them.
A caregiver named Katy wrote in a blog "I am only now remembering that I, too, exist as a separate entity.". This sense of relief may lead one to believe he/she is being selfish, resulting in feelings of guilt.
Caregivers may also question themselves about whether or not they tried hard enough or if they could have done more. When these feelings arise, remember that it is not logical for one to expect to be able to control everything. Nor should caregivers attempt to compare their "performance" to others. We all have differing strengths, weaknesses and life situations, so these comparisons wouldn't be equitable.
Feelings of grief will be present if caregiving has ended due to the death of the care recipient. Anger may also surface if caregiving responsibilities were viewed as unfair or if one dwells on personal experiences/opportunities that may have been missed due to caregiving.
Caregivers cannot pick up their lives where they left off when they started providing care. The world around them has changed, and in all likelihood, they themselves also have changed. Time is needed to process these changes, learn new roles and responsibilities, and evaluate/adjust life goals.
Many caregivers believe themselves to be stronger after the experience of caregiving. "You learn whatever you thought your physical and emotional limitations were, you stretch beyond them to do what needs to be done" (Darren Walsh, 2013).
"Moving On: Means to simply acknowledge that something occured ... but rather than addressing it from all sides, you skip over it and simply consider the item closed.
The life of a caregiver, after caregiving ends, will be influenced by which of these paths the individual chooses to follow. Physical factors, such as the former caregiver's age and state of health, also will play a role, as will social connections and spiritual beliefs.
Obviously, life after caregiving for an older spouse/sibling will look very different from the life of an adult child. Regardless of who the caregiver is and the details of a caregiving situation, complex issues can be present, not only during the caregiving phase, but afterward as well.

Enterprising J.D. Edwards Keeps Expanding
Medora Lee
Oct 2, 1998 11:02 AM EDT
SAN FRANCISCO -- Asia is a mess. Eastern Europe is a horror. Year 2000 fixes are eating up precious corporate resources. U.S. corporate earnings are slowing. So why is J.D. Edwards' (JDEC) chief financial officer, Rick Allen, smiling?
Investors in the software market haven't had much to be cheerful about lately. But J.D. Edwards, which develops software that helps companies automate business, has been succeeding where competitors like
(ORCL) - Get Oracle Corporation Report
(SAP) - Get SAP SE Report
(PSFT)
-- which just earned a spot in the
-- have all struggled.
But a year after its initial public offering at 23, J.D. Edwards has
its shares almost double, closing Thursday at 40.
J.D. Edwards built its name as the leader in enterprise software that ran on the
(IBM) - Get International Business Machines Corporation Report
AS/400 platform for mid-sized companies. Nothing wrong with that, but the fastest-growth sector was in providing software for
(INTC) - Get Intel Corporation Report
-based workstations running
. Before it went public, J.D. Edwards launched a new product to go beyond its dependence on IBM AS/400. The company has garnered a list of clients that includes
(EL) - Get Estee Lauder Companies Inc. Class A Report
American Home Products
(AHP)
(MOB)
Although generally considered the No. 4 player in the enterprise software market, behind SAP, Oracle and Baan, J.D. Edwards is one of the fastest-growing companies in the sector.
"We have to grow in the mid-50s
percent range for the next few years to gain market share," Allen said. That rate far outpaces industry forecasts of 30% to 35% growth in the next few years.
"We are in the middle of the planning process for our expansion," said Allen, "but we will bring in upwards of 2,000 people across all aspects of our business." That's a 48% increase on an employee base of 4,200.
Much of J.D. Edwards' new growth is expected to come from the non-AS/400 market. J.D. Edwards entered that area about a year-and-a-half ago with One World, which helps automate accounting and human resources tasks and works on both
Microsoft's
(MSFT) - Get Microsoft Corporation Report
NT. In the third quarter, some 20% of licensing fees came from non-AS/400 sales, up from about 13% in the previous quarter.
"Historically, we've been in the AS/400 world, which is about 20% of the
enterprise resource planning market," Allen said. "We're the gorillas in that market, but with One World, we can also play in 70% more of the market -- I say 70% because
can play in 100% of the market."
In December, J.D. Edwards plans to introduce a new version of One World that will address front office needs like customer support management, which he thinks will fight off any industrywide slowdown.
Enterprise software critics worry that growing year 2000 costs and economic pressures will slow sales as early as the fourth quarter. But Allen argues that in choppy financial markets, companies have to get more efficient and cut costs -- and enterprise software is one of the best ways to do that.
"I think J.D. Edwards can continue to beat the Street's estimates, not just in the fourth quarter but for the next few quarters," said Trent May, portfolio manager of
Invesco Growth Fund
, who said he can see the J.D. Edwards office from his window. "There are two reasons.
J.D. Edwards is strong in the space they compete in, and their operating margins are quite below
those of their peers." May said Invesco owns about 1.5 million shares in the enterprise software firm, with about 150,000 in his fund.
When asked about beating expectations, the 41-year-old Allen smiled, crossed his arms and said, "In the fourth quarter, we expect all indicators to be up." Fourth-quarter earnings are due after the market closes Dec. 3.
Allen said he feels "entirely comfortable" with
First Call's
consensus estimate for fourth-quarter earnings of 33 cents per share and year profit of 67 cents. The fourth-quarter estimate is up a penny from a month ago and the forecast for the year ending this month is up from 58 cents in March.
In the third quarter, J.D. Edwards earned 16 cents per diluted share, beating analysts' expectations for the fourth consecutive quarter.
As long as Allen's company beats expectations, he can smile all the way to the bank.

The Elusive Brain
Literary Experiments in the Age of Neuroscience
Jason Tougaw; Foreword by Joseph E. LeDoux
Featuring a foreword by renowned neuroscientist Joseph E. LeDoux, The Elusive Brain is an illuminating, comprehensive survey of contemporary literature's engagement with neuroscience. This fascinating book explores how literature interacts with neuroscience to provide a better understanding of the brain's relationship to the self.
Jason Tougaw surveys the work of contemporary writers—including Oliver Sacks, Temple Grandin, Richard Powers, Siri Hustvedt, and Tito Rajarshi Mukhopadhyay—analyzing the way they experiment with literary forms to frame new views of the immaterial experiences that compose a self. He argues that their work offers a necessary counterbalance to a wider cultural neuromania that seeks out purely neural explanations for human behaviors as varied as reading, economics, empathy, and racism. Building on recent scholarship, Tougaw's evenhanded account will be an original contribution to the growing field of neuroscience and literature.
Jason Tougaw is associate professor of English at Queens College, City University of New York. He is the author of The One You Get: Portrait of a Family Organism and Strange Cases: The Medical Case History and the British Novel. He blogs at californica.net.
"A remarkably sane book. Tougaw's analyses show a supple and adroit mind at work."—N. Katherine Hayles, author of Unthought: The Power of the Cognitive Nonconscious
"This excellent book on the relationship between the brain and experimental literature weaves together original and compelling intellectual strands that ultimately have much to say about not only contemporary neuroliterary work, but also about our present moment. With rigor and originality, Tougaw paves the way for a new type of thinking that will push the boundaries of multidisciplinary investigation."—Sebastian Groes, University of Wolverhampton, UK
"Through his astute analysis of the literature that has come in the wake of neuromania, Tougaw deftly undermines the schisms that usually plague debates about psyche, soma, and world to reveal the complex ambiguities in both the science and the art of the brain."—Siri Hustvedt, author of A Woman Looking at Men Looking at Women
"Tougaw's provocative deep dive into the burgeoning genre of literature informed by brain science -- from 'neuronovels' to autistic autobiographies and beyond -- should be of interest to anyone concerned with the essential questions of what makes us human, how we narrate our own experience, and the shifting boundaries of brain, mind, self, and society."—Steve Silberman, author of NeuroTribes: The Legacy of Autism and the Future of Neurodiversity
"The Elusive Brain is a stunning book that does more than bridge literary studies and the neurosciences. This book uses contemporary literature and culture to explore the deepest questions raised by 21st century understandings of the brain and the nervous system. Readers of literature, cultural studies, philosophy, psychology and neuroscience will be fascinated by this interdisciplinary study of the brain, self and culture."—Victoria Pitts-Taylor, author of The Brain's Body
"A brilliant, readable work of scholarship."—Choice

Q: How can i get the link of submisson in subbredit when im calling submisson.url i get something like i.redd.it/... . But when I open a post in the subreddit I get the fowling url https://www.reddit.com/r/PrequelMemes/comments/ is there a method which returns https://www.reddit.com/r/PrequelMemes/comments/? Thanks in advance.

A: PRAW submission object has two attributes url and permalink for getting the url of a submission.
submission.url will return the URL of the image that is inside the post and submission.permalink will return the main URL of the submission.
So, in other words, submission.url will give you a URL that starts with https://i.redd.it and submission.permalink will give you the URL that starts with https://reddit.com/r/PrequelMemes/comments/?...
I hope you get it. :)

Genelec is debuting its new G Two Active Loudspeaker, part of the new Genelec G Series of Active Loudspeakers.
The G Two (Woofer 4″ + Tweeter 3/4″) joins three other models in the series: G One (Woofer 3″ + Tweeter 3/4″), G Three (Woofer 5″ + Tweeter 3/4″) and G Four (Woofer 6.5″ + Tweeter 3/4″); as well as the complementary F One (6″ active) and F Two (8″ active) subwoofers. The G Series and F Series models are designed to be used together or separately. The G Two and its brethren feature industrial design by designer Harri Koskinen and Genelec's R&D team.
The G Two active two-way loudspeaker combines an organic, rounded form with powerful and precise sound reproduction. The gently curving design is not chosen for good looks alone. Sharp edges or corners on a loudspeaker enclosure cause acoustic reflections that interfere with the direct sound. This harmful interference – diffraction – is dramatically reduced by the smooth, curved design of the G Series, audible in the excellent resolution and solid sound imaging of the products, according to the company.

It's a funny world. Especially in the West. Where we have hour long, nay, week long discussions whether we are male, female, or none of the above. Whole books are written with ideas of how to dress if you are born male but feel you have a vag*na. Whilst the rest of the world worries what to have for breakfast being the only chance for food for the day, we bluster on about same-sex. Whatever. But it is worrying when policies have to be produced such as the one in the Met (Metropolitan Police aka Scotland Yard – the London police) outlining in some detail what it is all about. The following makes it crystal clear what bobbies have to know and will probably have to sit an exam to see whether they are male, female, or non-binary. This is from their report:
There are three key aspects of gender:
• Gender Identity – What gender the individual identifies with. • Gender Presentation – How an individual wishes to present their gender.
• Biological Sex – What biological markers (genitalia, chromosomes etc.) an
individual has.
Biological sex is largely assigned at birth, depending on the appearance of the genitals. Gender identity is the gender that a person 'identifies' with or feels
themselves to be, and gender presentation is how they wish to present their gender
to the outside world. While biological sex and gender identity are the same for most people, this isn't the case for everyone. For example, some people may have male anatomy, but identify as female, while others many not feel they're definitively either male or female. This disparity between sex and gender identity can lead to distressing and painful feelings that are called gender dysphoria. Gender dysphoria is a recognised medical condition. It is not a mental illness. An umbrella term for people who do not identify solely with a single gender is "non-binary gender".
Now that you know that, have a quick look in your pants to see which one you are. All Met officers apparently have to do this now. Besides there are to be discussions whether the uniform has to be non-sexist. Even Peter Thatchell has an opinion, God help us all. No difference between what men and women wear. It is beginning to look awfully like it has been depicted in some films and in books, a world where everyone looks the same. EXACTLY the same. Same clothes, same vacant expression. We might even end up in an enclosed space, an enormous bubble where humans live till 40 and then are done away with like in the 70's film "Logan's Run" (Michael York and Jenny Agutter). Only we cannot distinguish between characters as they all look exactly alike. So, who kisses who? I don't know, it could be the cat. Even so, for police officers to have to go through this drivel is yet another nail in the coffin. It is sad that we have to pander to the opinions of an idiotic minority who will tell all and sundry how to live, how to dress, how to behave and also tell us whether we should be male, female or none of the above. Well, I'm male and I am damned if I will question my gender. But you can, just don't tell me!

The Art of Community NCW
Our Well-being
The gift of a kidney: Wardell receives organ from acquaintance Jill Maloney
by Rufus Woods · Published January 20, 2017 · Updated January 26, 2017
WENATCHEE — Longtime Wenatchee attorney and former Chelan County Superior Court judge Carol Wardell has a new lease on life, thanks to the kindness of a casual acquaintance who took the extraordinary step of offering to donate a kidney to save Wardell's life.
The kidney donor is fellow Wenatchee Golf & Country Club member Jill Maloney. When Maloney first read a December, 2015 Wenatchee World article about Wardell's need for a kidney from a live donor, she was inspired to try to help. Maloney went through an exhaustive battery of psychological and physical tests before being accepted as a donor.
Wardell, who suffers from a genetic condition that has slowly been destroying her kidneys, went public a little more than a year ago in hopes that a live kidney donor could be found. Wardell admits that she went public with a some trepidation — she's keeps her emotions close to the vest and doesn't like asking for help. But live kidney transplants are rare things and, given Wardell's heart issues, a live donation was the best option and that meant she needed to motivate people to consider the extraordinary gift of an organ.
Last-minute snafu
The transplant took place at Virginia Mason Medical Center in Seattle on Tuesday, Nov. 29, but it almost didn't happen. The Monday before Thanksgiving, Wardell and Maloney went to Confluence Health for a final blood test. The next day, Wardell got the shocking news that the surgery was being called off because the blood test had revealed a previously undiscovered sensitivity to an antigen in Maloney's blood.
I had been preparing to write the happy story that Wardell was going to get her transplant. That Tuesday, Wardell sent me a note saying that surgery was called off and asked me to hold the story. "I'm so beyond consolable right now," she told me in an email. Maloney said she felt equally devastated at not being able to give the gift of a kidney. "I went into a total funk," Maloney recalled. This was the low point of Wardell's emotional rollercoaster.
But the last-minute medical snafu made no sense to Wardell. She asked for another test and the Virginia Mason transplant doctor readily agreed. The repeat test showed that the transplant could go forward. "I don't think (the surgery) would have happened if Carol hadn't asked for another test," Maloney said.
Also disturbing for Wardell was that although she knew that though other potential donors were in the wings (more than six friends, acquaintances, nephews and one person Wardell had never met had volunteered), it would take months to go through the whole process of matching again. Meanwhile, her kidney function was seriously diminished and dialysis to keep her alive would have been necessary. It was far better to get a kidney without being on dialysis because of how hard that is on the body, Wardell said.
Recipients don't always know the people who donate live organs — the donor ultimately decides whether to make contact or not. For Maloney, there was never a question that she wanted Wardell to have her kidney and also wanted to share the experience.
She reached out and the two became close friends, sharing their passion for life, wine, food, golf and the love they each have for their husbands. Their husbands — Larry Maloney and Kurt Mack — shared the roller coaster ride with them. Mack confirmed that there were highs and lows on the journey that he shared with his wife. "I'm not going to say it wasn't stressful," said Mack in his typically understated fashion.
When we sat down for the interview in the living room of Wardell and Mack's East Wenatchee home, Carol and Jill were like sisters sitting on the couch, sharing memories of the crazy journey and the experience of being in the hospital together.
Love and support
As the surgery approached, their thoughts turned to each other. As she was being wheeled toward the operating room, Wardell recalled asking medical staff to make sure that Maloney still wanted to go through with the operation. Maloney had been told multiple times that she could pull out of the surgery if she wanted, but Maloney did not waver. "From day one I felt a connection to Carol," said Maloney. Even though she wasn't living in the valley full time, she appreciated Wardell's generous spirit.
Said Wardell: "For me it was really emotional. It was overpowering to say the least that Jill was willing to go through this (the surgery) knowing what she would encounter in surgery and recovery." The surgeon said the kidney Maloney donated was exceptionally healthy, Wardell said.
It's been nearly two months since surgery and both are progressing well, although Wardell's face is still puffy because of the steroids she has been prescribed. There's a funny story about that — Wardell has been known to be a little intense at times and Mack told the doctors that maybe they shouldn't be giving her steroids. Medications will be part of her life from now on.
Wardell and Maloney want the community to know how much they appreciate the love and support they both have received. The surgeons at Virginia Mason were astonished that Wardell had so many potential local donors — apparently, that's unheard of.
Both Wardell and Maloney wanted to acknowledge the professional and compassionate care they received from the entire Virginia Mason transplant team. Wardell was told that the doctors felt comfortable with her release because the nephrologists in Wenatchee are very good and the teams at Confluence and Virginia Mason coordinate on a regular basis.
Maloney and Wardell wanted to tell their story in part to encourage others to make medical contributions. People can donate organs when they are alive or after they pass away. Virtually anyone can be a regular blood donor.
Would Maloney give her kidney if she could do it over? "In a heartbeat," she said. She has no more kidneys to give but she intends to make more typical contributions to make the community a better place.

AttributeError: 'ProfileWindow' object has no attribute 'localId'

A: When comparing with my code you miss the definition of localId in kivy.kv and you don't initiate the object as Property.
So it would be:
Code:
class ProfileWindow(Screen):
    localId = NumericProperty()

    def __init__(self):
        self.localId = None

test5.kv
<ProfileWindow>:
    name: "page"
    localId: localId

A: You have two __init__() methods in ProfileWindow. The second redefines, overwriting the first, and does not create the localId attribute. Your one and only __init__() method in ProfileWindow should be:
   def __init__(self, **kwargs):
       super(ProfileWindow, self).__init__(**kwargs)
       self.localId = None

The next problem is that you are creating 3 instances of ProfileWindow. You only need one. So remove the line:
window = ProfileWindow()

and from your build() method in the App, remove:
self.page = ProfileWindow()

The ProfileWindow is created by the line in your code:
sm = Builder.load_file("kivy.kv")

any other use of ProfileWindow() creates a new instance of ProfileWindow that is not part of your GUI.

MADRID, April 10, 2014 (AFP) - Dutch rider Wouter Poels of the Omega Pharma–Quick-Step team won the fourth stage of the Tour of the Basque Country on Thursday as Alberto Contador maintained his overall lead.
However, Spanish star Contador, of the Tinkoff-Saxo team, saw his compatriot Alejandro Valverde shave two seconds off his race lead, which now stands at 12 seconds.
Poels won the 151-kilometer ride from Vitoria to Eibar after making a late attack on the final climb. The 26-year-old beatMovistar rider Valverde and another Spaniard, Samuel Sanchez of BMC, by one second.
Contador attacked several times himself on the final climb but was unable to break clear of Valverde, keeping the general classification wide open with two stages remaining.
However, Poland's Michal Kwiatkowski lost seven seconds on Contador and in the process gave up his third place in the overall standings to Italy's Damiano Cunego.
Friday's penultimate stage will be a 160km ride to Xemein before the event concludes with an individual time trial on Saturday.

Kowloon City District- based Rehabilitation Pilot Scheme
Fire Safety Improvement Works Subsidy Scheme(The information is for reference only, and the details are subject to the announcement when the scheme is officially launched)
Application will be open in 2nd quarter of 2023
The Chief Executive announced in the "2017 Policy Address" that the Government planned to devote HK$2 billion and in the "2019 Policy Address" an injection of additional HK$3.5 billion, partnered with the Urban Renewal Authority ("URA") to implement the "Fire Safety Improvement Works Subsidy Scheme" ("FSW Scheme") to subsidise owners of more old composite buildings to undertake fire safety enhancement measures as required by the Fire Safety (Buildings) Ordinance.
A building participating in the FSW Scheme must meet the following criteria:
1. The building is not under single ownership and is a target composite building (commercial and residential) under the Fire Safety (Buildings) Ordinance; and
2. The average annual rateable value of domestic units in the building which sited in urban areas (including Shatin, Kwai Tsing, Tsuen Wan) should not exceed HK$187,000 or should not exceed HK$143,000 if the building sited in the New Territories (excluding districts of Shatin, Kwai Tsing and Tsuen Wan); and
3. The building owners have received "Fire Safety Directions" for the common parts of the building and / or its related Fire Safety Compliance Order issued by the Fire Services Department (FSD) and the Buildings Department (BD), but compliance letters confirming the completion of all fire safety improvement works required by the Fire Safety (Buildings) Ordinance had not been issued.
Owner's organisations and Applicant's Representatives
- For building with owners' corporation (OC), the OC shall be the Applicant who submit the application to the URA.
- For buildings without an OC or those held by Civil Servants' Co-operative Building Society (CBS), all owners collectively or the CBS (as the case may be) shall be the Applicant who submit the application to URA. Please read the Application Notes for building without Owners' Corporation in Annex I to the IBRAS Application Form for the application requirements and details
Use of Subsidy
The subsidy is only applicable to works carried out at the common parts of the building required for complying with the Directions and/or its related Fire Safety Compliance Order, which include:
A. Provision or improvement of the following fire service installations and equipment:
(i) Automatic sprinkler system;
(ii) Fire hydrant and hose reel system;
(iii) Manual fire alarm system;
(iv) Emergency lighting;
(v) Automatic cut-off device for mechanical ventilating system; and
(vi) Other alternative fire service installations and equipment/measures approved by FSD
B. Improvement of fire safety construction measures:
(i) Protection of exit routes and staircases with fire resisting construction;
(ii) Improvement of the exit to a street;
(iii) Provision or replacement of fire doors;
(iv) Improvement of staircase width;
(v) Provision of additional staircases;
(vi) Enhancement of existing lifts to become fireman's lifts;
(vii) Provision of fireman's lifts;
(viii) Improvement of the fire resistance of external walls and the protection of openings therein;
(ix) Provision of fire resisting construction separating different parts of the building;
(x) Provision of fire resisting enclosures to non-emergency services within the staircases; and
(xi) Provision of smoke vents to basements.
The necessary professional services (e.g. appointment of consultant) and any associated or follow-up works arising from the works mentioned above may also be subsidised. All works must comply with the legal requirements and be carried out by qualified registered contractors.
Target Beneficiaries and Level of Subsidy
The Applicant may receive subsidy up to 60% of the cost of the fire safety improvement works and the consultancy fees, or the corresponding cap imposed on the relevant category of buildings (see the table below), whichever is less.
Fire Safety Improvement Works Subsidy Scheme – Maximum Subsidy Amount
Number of Storeys Maximum Amount (HKD)
1 – 3 230,000
7 – 12 790,000
13 or more 1,260,000
As regards those buildings with qualified registered contractors already engaged for the fire safety improvement works, the independent consultant appointed by URA will assess the relevant documents provided by the Applicant (such as tender documents, works contracts and works progress reports) to determine the level of subsidy, which in any case will not exceed 60% of cost of works and consultancy fees, or the corresponding cap applicable to the relevant category of buildings (whichever is less).
Background Notes for the Proposed Two Stages Design Approach
There are difficulties encountered by different stakeholders (including owners and fire services contractors) who expressed dissatisfaction in the existing practice of adopting design and build arrangement in the tendering for fire services works for composite buildings ("existing design & build practice").
In order to overcome the short-comings of the "exiting design and build practice", it would be desirable to have a consultant sorting out the fundamental design issues with the relevant authorities prior to the tendering for the fire services works. Hence, it is considered that the idea of the "build only arrangement" (i.e., proceed tendering for the fire services contractor only if the design of the same is completed and the approval of the proposed fire services works from the relevant authorities is obtained) would be feasible.
Alternatively, URA together with FSD/BD have developed a new approach instead of the "building only arrangement". The consultant appointed by the building owners will follow the "two stages design approach" to seek the initial views on the preliminary design from FSD & BD prior to preparation of the tender documents for procurement of the fire services contractor.
Under the requirements of FSW Scheme, unless with the permission of the Implementation Committee, the services of the consultant appointed by the building owners joining the scheme shall cover the preparation of preliminary design of the proposed fire services improvements works (i.e. "Preliminary Design") or to complete the design of the proposed improvement works and sort out the design issues with authorities (i.e. "build only arrangement") before the tendering of the work contracts.
The requirement and expected content of preliminary design is available under FSW Scheme for applicants to use. Please click the following heading to get the document.
Requirements of Preliminary Design under Two Stage Design Approach under Fire Safety Improvement Works Subsidy Scheme
Other Subsidies
If the building meets the eligibility criteria of the third round of "Operation Building Bright 2.0" ("OBB 2.0"), the Applicant may also apply for subsidy under the third round of OBB 2.0. However, the relevant work items shall not duplicate with those approved under the third round of FSW Scheme or any other past or existing subsidy schemes administered by different institutions or departments.
To encourage the formation of OCs by building owners for carrying out fire safety improvement works, any Applicant who is granted the Approval-in-Principle Letter (Approval Letter) in the third round of FSW Scheme with Certificate of Registration of its OC issued within the 12 months prior to the deadline of application mentioned above shall be granted a subsidy of HK$3,000 under the Owners' Corporation Formation Subsidy.

Quupe Launches Peer-to-Peer Rental Marketplace for Household ItemsA new startup wants to redefine the use, re-use and cost of everyday items. Quupe-proncouned "koop"-is a peer-to-peer rental platform for household items. Based in Vancouver, Quupe targets young, urban adventurers who want access to equipment, but might not want to spend the money to buy it.
Vancouver website Quupe connects borrowers and lendersA new Vancouver website is aiming to help residents lend out household items to those who want to borrow them. Called , short for 'recoup', it launched publicly on Feb. 28 and co-founder Angela Hamilton says the response has been "extremely positive" so far.
Green Living: Vancouver startup Quupe gets the goods to the right peopleWith the incredible growth of the sharing economy, it's become a run-of-the-mill practice to hitch a ride in a stranger's car or stay the night in an unoccupied apartment during a weekend getaway. So it's only natural that we begin sharing products like lawn mowers, GoPros, and sewing machines, right?
Would you recommend Quupe to a friend?
With it's growth in its first year, Quupe was selected as a top 10 startup in Vancouver, Canada. As sharing economy picks up globally, general item rentals will be the next front after ride and space sharing. Any suggestions on markets which are adoption-ready for Quupe like platforms?

The Man Behind World's Most Popular Language App
By Erika Beras Dec 11, 2015
When he was just 21 years old, Guatemalan-born PhD student Luis von Ahn created CAPTCHA—the response test on websites that force you to re-type modified images of letters and numbers in order to prove that you're a human being—and then upgraded his invention with reCAPTCHA, which used the same process to help digitize books. Recently, von Ahn has been focused on a different project inspired by his reflections on the education system in his native Guatemala: creating a completely free language-learning app called Duolingo. The app is the most popular language app in the world, with over 10 million users. Von Ahn explains that most users are interested in learning English as a way of escaping poverty, often an otherwise prohibitively expensive prospect. The 37-year-old tech wiz describes his vision for using technology to provide free access to quality education anywhere in the world.

Submission for OWD template contest "Favourite Book".
Oh. My. God. It is beautiful. Great job!
This is a totally amazing design. I love it, and I'm sure everyone else does two. Excellent job!!!
In FireFox, the pen to the left shifts up. I didn't try this out, but I'm sure if you change "margin-top" to "top" it should be more complaint. I'll give it try.
When you increase the text size in IE or FF, the pen and paper on the top left separate. Very nice design.
This is a great design. Imaginative and very well-realized.
Thank you! I'm using this for my English classroom lesson plan website!
The pen is messed up for me too, but my husband promised to help me fix it. Other than that, good job!
Thanks for the design, it looks really nice but can I fix the sword and paper graphic at the top? They are split on my screen so i ruins an otherwise lovely design.
Excellent piece of work. Really beautiful.
I use it on http://www.chessnaute.com with some modifications.
the "pen" is a sword named Sting because Bilbo stabbed a giant spider w/ it.
I'm amazed! Very atmospheric theme with a perfect fantasy touch.
Thank Arcsin, your product is very nice.
I'm new to web designing, but have been a professional software developer for 35 years (C, C++ C# etc. etc. etc.). I have been using this site to download examples of html/css as part of the learning process.
This particular one is an absolute joy, because as well as its artistic merit, the code is very well designed and beautifully laid out.
Thank you for an excellent piece of work. My congratulations.

Hillary the Hawk
By By Paul R. Pillar April 22, 2016
Mark Landler has an interesting extended article in the New York Times about how Hillary Clinton came to views about the use of military force that have made her, in Landler's words, "the last true hawk left" in this year's presidential race. Landler poses the question of Clinton's motivations as a traditional dichotomy between "calculated political maneuver" and "deeply felt core principle," and suggests that in the case of Clinton's hawkishness it is more the latter than the former. But much of what the article describes is less a matter of principle than of sociology.
Maybe what we are witnessing is to some extent long-term compensation for what otherwise might have been seen as a weak spot for Clinton. Landler relates a story that Clinton herself has told, about being rebuffed when she went to a Marine recruiting office in the mid-1970s and expressed interest in joining the Corps, at least in a reserve capacity, as an attorney. Reporters have cast doubt on the story, but it would not be surprising for a woman, a Democrat, and the wife of a clever draft-evader to see advantage in establishing a connection with the military and establishing herself as a military wonk.
That much may indeed be a calculated political maneuver, but once the maneuvering began, much of the further development of the fledgling into a full-fledged hawk was through a sort of osmosis from the outlook of some of those around her. Her experience as first lady living in the White House, which as Landler notes is "in many ways, like living in a military compound," deepened her positive feelings toward the military. Then when she really began schmoozing with generals, it was as one of the boys. The former commander of the 10th Mountain Division at Fort Drum, New York relates how when then-Senator Clinton first visited the post, "She sat down, took her shoes off, put her feet up on the coffee table and said, 'General, do you know where a gal can get a cold beer around here?'?" She later developed a close relationship with retired Army general and resident Fox News hawk Jack Keane, to whom Clinton quickly took a liking because, according to one former associate, "She loves that Irish gruff thing." By contrast, she had chilly relationships, and differences over Afghanistan, with some cerebral officers who had risen high in the Army: Karl Eikenberry, the former U.S. military commander and then ambassador there, and Douglas Lute, a White House coordinator on Afghanistan. One of her former aides explained, "She likes the nail-eaters"—people like Keane, Stanley McChrystal, and David Petraeus—"Real military guys, not these retired three-stars who go into civilian jobs."
The relationship with Keane was an entree into relationships with other active and retired senior officers such as Petraeus, and the advantages accrued to both sides of the relationship. "It worked to their mutual benefit," Landler writes. "Petraeus was building ties to a prominent Democratic voice in the Senate; Clinton was burnishing her image as a friend of the troops." There was more mutual benefit in the debates within the Obama administration over policy on Afghanistan. Tom Nides, a former senior official in Clinton's State Department, says that Pentagon leaders looking for a bigger surge of troops in Afghanistan "knew that if they walked into the Situation Room and they had her, it made a huge difference in the dynamics." In the course of providing that sort of political cover and playing the role of uber-hawk on Afghanistan, Clinton—as later observed by Afghanistan hand Sarah Chayes—"contributed to the overmilitarizing of the analysis of the problem" while never following through on a talked-about civilian surge.
What is disturbing about this whole portrait is how much positions apparently are being determined, if not by narrow political calculations, by dynamics and relationships that really are more the province of sociology than of national security policy analysis. It is disturbing not just as a statement about Hillary Clinton—who, like Barack Obama, is smart enough to be able to do careful policy analysis on national security matters—but as a broader statement of how much of that manner of arriving at positions on the use of military force infuses overall debate on foreign policy. Hillary Clinton is a mainstream candidate who mostly plays according to what Mr. Obama would call the Washington playbook. A pattern such as overmilitarization of analysis of a subject such as Afghanistan is a recurrent problem and not unique to any one figure such as Clinton.
If Hillary Clinton is elected president—a probable outcome—an important question is whether once in office, given the changes in relationships and thus in the sociology, not to mention her sitting at the desk where the buck stops, her postures on use of military force also will change. Will those postures be an output of feet-on-the-coffee-table affinity with favored military officers, or more the product of detached and careful analysis as exhibited by her predecessor?


Denmårk is an impeccable series of luxury, inner-city apartments that brings globally-acclaimed Nordic design innovation to life in Kew.
With one, two and three bedroom apartments available, singles, couples and families will be thrilled to discover the chance to experience true Scandinavian living right here in Melbourne.
Though Denmark (the country) may be famous chiefly for its interior design, eye-catching architecture is not wanting as you stroll through the streets of Copenhagen. To emulate the Nordic essence and encapsulate what is essentially Denmark, Chandler Architecture has crafted a facade of blonde timber and natural stone. Paired with contrasting black steel elements, the palette of colours and textures succeeds in being classic yet modern and entirely appealing.
"Denmårk is a unity of elegant materials – all wisely included to form an enduring project," says David Chandler, Director at Chandler Architecture.
Walk into the apartment and the sense of modernism will hit you like a ton of bricks, or rather, a ton of timber. Breathing tone and texture into the walls and floors, timber joinery and floorboards dominate the aesthetic of the living room and kitchen.
Contrast is created through the insertion of matte black details and fixtures throughout the space, including a striking island bench and a luxurious, avant-garde fireplace. The overall effect is a visual appeal that is expensive without being pretentious, classic without being clichéd.
Liveability lies at the epicentre of Denmårk's innovative design. Not only are the living spaces a sight to behold but also a setting to be enjoyed. With a spacious layout that comfortably includes a lounge area, dining table and breakfast bar, the time you spend with your loved ones will be truly enhanced.
The factor of enjoyment plays a key role in the kitchen's design too. The fitting inclusion of European appliances will make cooking just as appealing as dining out. Characterised by simplicity and minimalism, the space delivers an experience second to none.
In the bedroom and bathroom, the tranquil and artistic mood continues to emerge through rich materials and depth of colour. The resultant sense of superiority becomes an alluring distinctiveness that epitomises Denmårk's attraction.
"These one, two and three bedroom residences foster a great sense of comfort and intimacy," says Chandler.
The walk-in wardrobe will perfectly preserve your fashion imports from London and Paris and the lavish wool carpeting underfoot will add a touch of luxury to your mornings.
On the tenth floor, beautiful outdoor terraces wait to be enjoyed by lucky residents. Complete with a relaxing lounge area with a modern fire pit and breathtaking panoramas, it's the perfect place to hang out with friends.
Residents will also have access to the on-site gym, perfect for a quick pre-work work-out, and a theatre – all you'll need to bring to have a good night is the popcorn.
Kew has a growing reputation for being one of Melbourne's most prestigious pockets, rich with offerings that have attracted an eclectic blend of couples, families and independent people, both young and old. All the locals do have one thing in common though – a laid-back lifestyle with a dose of cosmopolitan enjoyment.
Meander through Kew's beautiful parks, rent out a rowboat at Studley Park or get a flavour for authentic Greek food at Hellenic Republic – how you spend your weekends in Kew is up to you. Of course, being just 5km from the CBD, you'll find escaping into the city will be just as easy as a walk in the park.
One bedroom apartments start from $475,000, two bedrooms from $640,000 and three bedrooms from $1,040,000.

It is time to Take Back New York! Elect Marc Molinaro in November.
Maybe then we won't have the highest 911 surcharge in the country and NY's Court system spending the highest per capita in the nation.
De Blasio: Miscommunication over lead paint exposure 'has been addressed'. Time will tell, Mr. Mayor.
Knowing this, the latest democratic trend is to spend even more -- 'Medicare For All' Would Cost $32.6 Trillion Over Ten Years.
Guy Benson outlines some of the tax hikes that would be necessary to pay for the Medicare for all.
Larry Horist notes in his column that the bright shining star of the Democratic Party, Alexandra Ocasia-Cortez, (who has made this debate plausible) is (thankfully) not ready for prime time and may just be the best gift democrats have for our right of center nation.

I'm not sure why but when it comes to sandwiches my favorite is peanut butter and jelly. For a snack I love chunky peanut butter with blueberry jelly on soft white bread but for parties I want to serve something a little fancier. Here I make a home-made cashew butter to replace the peanut butter and then turn some fresh raspberries into a flavorful fluid gel for the jelly.
To turn it into a dessert I serve it with a sliver of dark chocolate and a lemon twist which add brightness from the citrus and richness from the chocolate. I also like to serve it open face to better highlight the flavors.
If you would like more information about the modernist techniques, ingredients, and equipment used in the upscale pb and j recipe you can check out the following.
Combine the water with the raspberries and blend well. Strain thoroughly to remove all the seeds.
Blend the raspberry juice and agar together until well combined. Pour into a pot and add the brown sugar. Bring to a boil while stirring occasionally. Let simmer for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring regularly.
Stir in the Grand Marnier then pour the raspberry mixture into a container and let it set completely. Once set, puree it well with an immersion or standing blender.
Add all the ingredients to a blender or food processor and process well. For a smoother butter process longer. Taste for salt and add as needed. Drizzle in some more oil if it is too thick.
Place a bread square on a serving plate and smear the cashew butter on it. Top with some thick lines of raspberry jelly. Place a lemon twist on top and add a chocolate sliver or two.
For a party worthy PB and J dessert I make a homemade cashew butter to replace the peanut butter and turn fresh raspberries into a flavorful fluid gel for the jelly. Top with a dark chocolate sliver!
