It seems like almost immediately after a young couple gets married this is the first question that is asked of them. I mean, some couples don't even get out of the church before someone "jokingly" brings up what they assume is this happy couples future – children of their own.
If you're like my wife and I, that question began to get old after about the second week of marriage. You see, we had a plan. We thought we had figured out the optimal time to have children: when we would know each other well enough, there wouldn't be any issues in our marriage, and money would be abundant as would time. For us that number was supposed to be 5 years. See that phrase "supposed to be" – things didn't work out that way.
However I will say this, things worked out. It wasn't what we were expecting or even thinking when our daughter arrived in January of 2015, but it was right. I believe it was right for a few reasons, ultimately because God worked it out, but also because Ashley and I had done some preparing.
It is true when people tell you that nothing can fully prepare you for having kids. It's an amazing adventure and honor though isn't it? I know some people who use check lists or to do lists as they work towards a goal. Many people try and do this when it comes to kids as well and while it may seem silly, I don't know that it's completely foolish to do that. That being said, you must leave some sort of room for certain things to not be checked off. Let me leave you with some questions to ask yourself before deciding to have kids.
I know this is an extremely broad question, but a child will affect a very large part of your life. For many who have kids in their 20's, adapting to no longer being able to do all the things you want, when you want is a challenge. Along with that, make sure you aren't just examining the physical, but also the emotional and spiritual. Do you feel strong enough to endure the emotional roller coaster that is parenting? Have you established your beliefs deep enough to hold on to them and pass them down to your kids?
Where are you in your marriage?
It happens far too often that a child enters the picture and a marriage becomes non-existent. It becomes a roommate situation and sadly often ends in divorce. Before you have kids you must examine your marriage. It doesn't have to be perfect, because honestly, no marriage is, but it needs to be strong, it needs to be committed, and it needs to be tested. Raising a child can complete a family or destroy a family. Remember you were married first and that child needs to see you as husband and wife and friends as well as mom and dad. Make sure your marriage can stand the good and the bad and that you can support one another and be strong when the other is weak.
I wish I could give you an actual number to have saved up, but I can't. Let me say this, you will never have enough money to have a child. It comes with a lot more expenses than you can imagine. However, you can and should have a developed discipline in this area so you can wisely budget and navigate the extra cost of starting a family. I don't believe you need to have $10,000 in the bank to have a family, but you do need to have your finances in order and be ready to make sacrifices and wise decisions.
This may seem silly to ask, but for some a job or career is the most important part of their life. When you have a child this has to change and so you may have to change the pace, frequency and amount of time you spend working on your career. Make sure you are at a point where you are prepared to give your time and attention to a little one.
Where are you in your life goals?
Almost every one of us has life goals. We may not have written them out, but they are there in the back of our brain. We are reminded of them as we watch movies, scroll through Facebook or Instagram and watch others achieve and attain goals. There are certain goals that may change or disappear when you have a child. There are other goals in which you now get to include your child. Either way, make sure you have an understanding of what you want to achieve in life.
Having children is one of the most exciting parts of this life. To know that God would entrust another person to your care is an honor and huge responsibility. Take some time, ask the questions and enjoy the journey!

Q: Sending identity to controller post action I have a page with this:

            @using (Html.BeginForm("Administration", "Home", FormMethod.Post))
            {
                <button id="btnAdministration" type="button" style="width:150px;height:50px;background-color:white;color:blue;border:none;font-size:medium" onclick="return GotoAdminstration();">Administration</button>
            }

            @using (Html.BeginForm("Indexes", "Meeting", FormMethod.Post))
            {
                <button id="btnMeetingSchedule" type="submit" style="width:150px;height:50px;background-color:white;color:blue;border:none;font-size:medium" onclick="return ShowOverlay();">Meeting Schedule</button>
            }

In the JavaScript for this page:
var user;
$(document).ready(function () {
    //debugger;
    user = function () { return @Html.Raw(Json.Encode(Model)) }();

And then when I try to post:
function GotoAdminstration() {
    ShowOverlay();
    var form = $('<form method="POST" action="@Url.Action("Administration","Home")">');
    form.append($('<input type="hidden" name="ident" value="' + user + '">'));
    $(body).append(form);
    form.submit();
}

Bu the action parameter is always null.  Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

A: In your cshtml file include a script tag like this

then try using this in your javaScript file:
var form = $('<form method="POST" action="'+urlString+'">');

A: No need to use entire form tag as selector, you can just add an id attribute to the form and use it as selector:
View
@using (Html.BeginForm("Administration", "Home", FormMethod.Post, new { id = "adminform" }))
{
    // form contents
}

JS
$('#adminform').submit();

Note that appending hidden input element before submitting form sounds like not a good idea (you need to deserialize it first). Try using a viewmodel property and HiddenFor helper inside the form instead (also I preferred using jQuery click event instead of onclick):
View
@using (Html.BeginForm("Administration", "Home", FormMethod.Post, new { id = "adminform" }))
{
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.Ident)
    <button id="btnAdministration" type="button" style="width:150px;height:50px;background-color:white;color:blue;border:none;font-size:medium">Administration</button>
}

JS
$('#btnAdministration').click(function () {
    ShowOverlay();
    $('#Ident').val(user); // add 'user' variable content inside hidden field
    $('#adminform').submit();
});

We are delighted to announce the outcome of our second and final flexible funding call. Beginning in early 2019, the projects will foster innovation in research-led teaching and support curriculum change in modern languages in higher education.
Through a series of workshops and the development of different creative translation methods across media (poetry, literature and film), this project investigates the potential for translation to stimulate creative approaches to the reading and interpretation of texts. By bringing together practising poets, writers, students and non-professional practitioners, its aims are to explore and develop the practice of translation as a method of creative-critical writing, and to design pedagogical tools for its teaching in a wide range of contexts.
The project looks anew at the literary work of career diplomat T. Ifor Rees (1890–1977) who, while best known for his Latin America travel books, lavishly illustrated with his own photographs, also left behind a rich legacy of multilingual translations (from French, English and Spanish into Welsh). Studying these will provoke new understandings of how translation across many languages influenced discourses of language preservation and the exotic, both in Welsh-language culture and further afield.
How do sign language learners' language attitudes towards minority languages evolve over the course of learning a sign language?
This project will investigate how language attitudes displayed by sign language students at Heriot-Watt University change over the course of learning a sign language. Students will be asked a range of questions designed to elicit their opinions on sign language use before and after a deaf community placement (e.g., what constitutes 'good' or 'bad' use of sign language). Responses from different stages of the course will be compared and the impact of current teaching practices on language attitudes will be explored.
The MEITS team is looking forward to working with these projects to reinvigorate research and teaching in modern languages.

WHAT IS THE CLAN SYSTEM ALL ABOUT?
As the Dojo is home to a sizable number of students, it is imperative that steps are taken to ensure that they receive optimal training in all facets of the art. There is a two fold approach to this. The first approach involves what we term the conventional approach to training. This takes the form of formal classes where members receive instructions in the art according to their respective levels. Even here our approach is not very conventional. Most martial arts have their students taught in one huge class with the one instructor standing in front displaying his kata movements. As Ninjukai Taijutsu is not about katas but more about spontaneity and the potential of the human body, our approach to formal training takes on a different turn. In order to appreciate and understand the techniques and intricacies of the art and to ensure that members receive adequate supervision, formal classes are not run as a whole, but rather they are further divided into smaller groupings of 3-5 students, each under an instructor or trainee instructor. However it must be made clear that training in Ninjukai Taijutsu is not confined to formal classes.
The second approach is what we would term as environmental training. The Shihan often tells the members that budo training must go "beyond the four walls of the dojo". Whilst a member can learn formal techniques in a dojo, he must realise that he can only cultivate a level of spontaneous responses to situations if he is exposed to conditions beyond the dojo. In this regard Outdoor Workshops and Bush Camps are organised for the members. As in formal classes, our approach is to divide the members into smaller groupings to ensure better quality directions and instructions. Members here are divided into Clans. We have three Clans - Minamoto, Taira and Fujiwara. The Clan System also helps to encourage and motivate the members to excel in the various activities that are specially designed for them. For example, during Bush Camps and Workshops the members can earn points for their clans if they can demonstrate spontaneity in action and responses, creativity in techniques, ability to explore possibilities etc. We have found that the Clan System has worked extremely well with the members – there is an old Chinese saying that says, "Only a good challenge can turn me round to have a second look at a difficult situation".

Lars und die Frauen (Originaltitel: Lars and the Real Girl) ist eine Tragikomödie aus dem Jahr 2007 von Regisseur Craig Gillespie mit Ryan Gosling in der Hauptrolle.

Handlung
Lars Lindstrom lebt in einer Kleinstadt im Norden der USA und wohnt in der umgebauten Garage des Hauses, das er zusammen mit seinem Bruder von seinem Vater geerbt hat. Die Mutter von Lars ist bei seiner Geburt gestorben. Im Haus lebt sein Bruder Gus mit Ehefrau Karin, die ihr erstes Kind erwartet. Der schüchterne Einzelgänger lebt zurückgezogen und meidet Kontakt mit Menschen. Auch als die neue Arbeitskollegin Margo Interesse an Lars zeigt, lässt er sie wortlos stehen. Sogar die Einladungen von Karin und seinem Bruder nimmt er nicht an.

Nach dem Hinweis eines Arbeitskollegen bestellt er sich im Internet eine lebensechte Puppe, die er Gus und Karin später als seine neue Internet-Bekanntschaft Bianca vorstellt, eine im Rollstuhl sitzende religiöse Frau aus Brasilien. Er spricht mit der Puppe und behandelt sie wie einen echten Menschen. Dies beunruhigt Gus und Karin so sehr, dass sie sogleich einen Termin mit ihrer Hausärztin Dagmar vereinbaren, die zugleich Psychologin ist. Dagmar erklärt ihnen, dass Lars an einer Wahnvorstellung leidet und damit Probleme aus seiner Vergangenheit aufarbeiten würde.

Unter dem Vorwand, Bianca habe eine Krankheit, die regelmäßige Behandlung erfordere, lässt Dagmar Bianca und Lars jede Woche zu sich in die Praxis kommen, wo sie versucht, ihm die Angst vor sozialen Kontakten zu nehmen. Die Stadtbewohner reagieren zunächst verwundert, spielen aber zunehmend mit und behandeln Bianca bald wie ein vollwertiges Mitglied der Gemeinschaft. Bianca hilft im Ortskrankenhaus aus und liest im Kindergarten aus einem Buch vor – tatsächlich tut dies ein Kassettenrekorder, der auf ihren Knien liegt.

Lars öffnet sich in der Folge immer mehr den Menschen um sich herum, während sich sein Verhältnis zu Bianca verschlechtert. Während der Arbeit kommt er der Arbeitskollegin Margo näher und geht mit ihr eines Abends zum Bowling.

Eines Morgens entdeckt Lars den bewusstlosen Körper Biancas. Im Krankenhaus eröffnet er Karin und Gus, dass Bianca im Sterben liege. Lars' Nachbarn und Mitarbeiter nehmen großen Anteil an ihrer Krankheit, geben Blumen und Geschenke für sie ab und trösten Lars. Bianca erliegt schließlich ihrer Krankheit und Freunde und Bewohner der Stadt kommen zu ihrer Beerdigung.

Im Anschluss an die Beerdigung bittet Lars Margo, ihm bei einem Spaziergang Gesellschaft zu leisten.

I was raised in a culture that clearly defined what it meant to be a real man. As a male in this environment, the importance of achieving real manhood can not be overstated. As a dyed in the wool skeptic and moral relativist, I would be disappointed if my opinions were interpreted by anyone as some universal definition of manhood.
response is hardwired into humans and most other animals, so fear is a given. True courage is the ability to do the right thing in spite of one's fear. If we use this second definition, I agree that bravery is necessary to real manhood. A real man has the guts to stand up for the underdog, the unpopular, and the underrepresented. Ironically, many of the characteristics of real men, as defined by culture, are rooted in fear and cowardice.
I place a high value on physical strength and put forth a good deal of effort to develop and maintain it. However, this quality can easily be dismissed as essential to real manhood. A frail and weak individual who puts himself between danger and someone vulnerable to harm would certainly meet the standards of real manhood. I would specify strength of character as a necessary component of real manhood.
In my hometown, this prescription includes short hair, with either khaki pants and boat shoes or camouflage and boots. While there is nothing wrong with enjoying the prescribed stuff, I consider one who fears to deviate from it, a coward. No courage at all is required to conform. Fear of being different is indicative of one who does not have what it takes to be a real man.
This is an instinctual characteristic found in many lower animals. Real chimps, baboons, and bison take care of their own. A guy who demonstrates this quality has not distinguished himself beyond the level of a primate. I think a real man must set the bar higher. A real man should take care of all who are unable to defend themselves from abuse and exploitation regardless of race, sexual orientation, gender, political group, regional affiliation, socioeconomic status, or even species. One who only takes care of his own is less than a real man.
pornographic videos. Only the homophobe group became sexually aroused. This response did not occur in the non-homophobe group. In other words, guys who have huge issues with gay people are often covering for their own homosexual tendencies.
Yes, I would say that taking charge when the situation warrants is inherent to real manhood. However, one who wants to take charge in ALL situations is simply arrogant and self-deluded. Real men have the maturity to defer to a more qualified individual when one is available. An intelligence that exceeds the level of any single individual within a group emerges whenever a group of people cooperates and respectfully works together.
Unless damaged, all people experience the full range of human emotions. Which requires greater courage, to express emotions that show vulnerability or to hide them? Hiding is not a behavior I typically associate with being a real man.

7 Christmas movies to get you into the festive spirit
By Lizzy Buczak, Audacy
With primetime, cable, and streaming available at your fingertips, it's never been easier to get lost in the magic of Christmas.
With the holidays fast approaching, you have no excuse not to watch give into a festive movie or two.
Pop Classic Christmas On Audacy
Pop Classic Christmas
We've made a list (and checked it twice) of some staple and classic movies – both new and old – for your viewing pleasure. Of course, it goes without saying that "Elf" and "Home Alone" should be always be on your list.
Even 27 years after its debut, the Tim Allen film remains a classic that can be enjoyed by kids and adults of all ages. A divorced father is forced to put on the red suit after he accidentally causes Santa's demise on his property. His life changes in unimaginable ways as he embraces the spirit of Christmas with the help of his son, Charlie.
Watch it on Amazon Prime.
Finding love is hard, especially around the holidays. Two women on opposite sides of the world – one in London, the other in Los Angeles – are fed up with being unlucky in love, so they switch apartments during the festive season and find their luck has taken a turn.
You can watch it on Amazon Prime.
Happiest Season
The American comedy chock full of A-listers like Kristen Stewart, Mackenzie Davis, Aubrey Plaza, and Daniel Levy is groundbreaking as it's one of the few holiday films centered around an LGBTQ+ love story. A young woman wants to propose to her girlfriend at the annual holiday party but realizes it may not happen as her partner isn't ready to come out to her conservative parents.
You can watch it on Hulu now!
The Christmas Chronicles Part 1 and Part 2
What happens when a brother and sister duo, Kate and Teddy, accidentally crash Santa's sleigh? They go on the adventure of a lifetime to help him deliver presents to all the good boys and girls! Once you finish the 2018 film, you can cue up the part 2, released last year, where a now-teenage Kate helps Santa save Christmas!
Watch both movies on Netflix now!
All aboard the polar express. The first stop on this fantastical adventure? The North Pole to find the true meaning of Christmas. The animated classic starring Tom Hanks is based on the picturesque tale by Chris Van Allsburg.
You can watch it on Amazon Prime!
There's a reason this 1989 comedy is a timeless classic -- spending the holidays with the Griswolds never gets old! Everything that can go wrong does go wrong for Clark, whose perfect holiday is interrupted by cousin Eddie and his family!
Watch it on Amazon Prime now!
Single All The Way
The only thing worse than being single during the holidays is having your family question why you're single during the holidays. A single man asks his best friend to pose as his boyfriend during a trip back home, but things get complicated when his family begins to play matchmaker.
Watch it now on Netflix!

Metal 3D printing also known as Metal Additive Manufacturing (AM) and Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) is the procedure by which parts are fabricated by a laser fusing together high performance metals, layer by layer. Metal printing processes like powder bed fusion, metal binder jetting, and directed energy deposition developed at an explosive pace. There are various sorts of metal 3D printing that each have their own particular advantages. Here are some of the most common types used to digitally craft metal objects.

Looks like IntegrationSuite.TestCancelIfNoInstanceType returns while it still has a PUT /arvados/v1/containers/zzzzz-dz642-queuedcontainer request in progress. If the PUT request runs after the /database/reset request, its side effect (cancelling the container) leaks into IntegrationSuite.TestGetLockUnlockCancel and causes the failure.
The problem is that an unsatisfiable container with state=Queued gets cancelled twice.
The test exits after the first cancel succeeds, allowing the second cancel to happen later.

February 24th, 2009 – The BBC confirm their coverage plans for the 2009 season, including every practice session live and a one-hour interactive forum after each race, both behind the Red Button service.
March 26th and 27th, 2009 – Every session live, with one hour build-ups and a ton of reaction. Formula 1 had returned to the BBC, with Jenson Button winning in style. A peak audience of nearly seven million viewers watched across live and repeat.
July 25th, 2009 – Probably the first real low point of BBC's Grand Prix coverage. Immediately following the crash of Felipe Massa during the Hungarian Grand Prix the team, notably Jordan, discussed Massa's condition, with Jordan speculating about 'rumours' that he had heard minutes after the crash happened.
The first BBC F1 forum at the 2009 Australian Grand Prix. Jake Humphrey (l), Ted Kravitz and Lee McKenzie (top r), David Coulthard, Eddie Jordan and Martin Brundle (bottom r).
November 1st, 2009 – BBC's first season came to a successful conclusion with the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. From a personnel perspective, the team was well received, the exception being Legard, however the decision was made to retain him for the 2010 season.
January 11th, 2011 – As good as BBC's coverage was, it was clear that something was not quite right with the commentary team. The decision was made at the beginning of 2011 to remove Legard from the team, with Coulthard now co-commentating alongside Brundle. It was a marked departure from the usual set-up, with now two ex-racers commentating on the action.
January 12th, 2012 – With Sky taking Brundle and Kravitz from BBC's TV team, the BBC regrouped. Veteran motor sport voice Ben Edwards led the way alongside Coulthard in the commentary box, with former Jordan technical director Gary Anderson joining the team as analyst.
Moments to last a lifetime, beamed to millions of viewers. Sebastian Vettel's championship celebration, during the 2011 Japanese Grand Prix post-race forum show.
March 17th and 18th, 2012 – A new era began. The 2012 Australian Grand Prix was broadcast exclusively live on Sky's new Formula 1 channel to a peak audience of just over one million viewers. The BBC aired an extended highlights programme later that day in a two-hour timeslot. One aspect which frustrated fans to begin with was the lack of forum for non-highlight races. One of the best aspects of BBC's programming had disappeared.
September 18th, 2012 – The highlights aspect was not for everyone. That included Jake Humphrey, who exited the BBC's revised Formula 1 coverage after just one season, joining BT Sport's Premier League team.
December 21st, 2012 – It was announced that Suzi Perry would become the new presenter of BBC's Formula 1 coverage, following in the footsteps of Steve Rider, Jim Rosenthal and Humphrey. Perry said: "I am so excited to be joining the BBC. Working alongside such an eminent team and the F1 world is a huge honour and I can't wait to get started." The low-key addition of Tom Clarkson (a relative unknown) halfway through 2012 meant that arguably BBC's team was stronger than ever before, despite not covering every race live.
Summer 2013 – I described the BBC team "as close to the perfect time as you would find" and that their programming is "still up there with the best." Therefore, the very next point makes perfect sense.
January 13th, 2014 – Understanding your audience is important. In a move that baffles me to this day, the news was broken on this blog that Gary Anderson and the BBC had parted company. We found out later that, according to Anderson, the BBC thought viewers were not interested in technical analysis. Tom Clarkson filled Anderson's role throughout 2014 and 2015. As good as Clarkson is, the move to reduce Anderson's input was not well thought through and in the end resulted in something that no one benefited from. 72 percent of you believed that BBC's Formula 1 coverage needs a technical expert.
October 25th, 2015 – A peak audience of 1.7 million watched Hamilton win his third world title exclusively live on Sky Sports F1, with an average of just over two million viewers watching on BBC One. 2015 was Formula 1's lowest rated season in the UK since 2007, according to overnight viewing figures.
The BBC F1 team close their final ever F1 Forum at the 2015 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
November 18th, 2015 – Another licence fee settlement, another round of rumours. This time, the BBC were set to chop Formula 1 completely.
November 19th, 2015 – Multiple reports stated that the BBC went to Bernie Ecclestone in his Kensington office to renegotiate the financial side of their contract. It was reported that Ecclestone declined any offer the BBC made to him.
November 29th, 2015 – Unbeknown to the viewing public at the time, the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix aired for what would be the last live race under the current contract on the BBC.
December 17th, 2015 – Broadcast reported that ITV will broadcast Formula 1 from 2016.
December 21st, 2015 – A press release officially confirms BBC's departure from Formula 1 after covering the sport for seven seasons.
Those Humphrey years were what brought me fully back into the F1 world and by god I miss them. My time with Sky has come to an end though, I can't justify an extra £40 a month year-round just for 10 extra live races.
BTW Channel 4 sports coverage has been exceptional for decades now so I'm keen to see what they bring to the table. I'm thinking in particular of Horse Racing and the TDF.

The Pongola River rises at some 2 200 m above mean sea level near Wakkerstroom, Mpumalanga, and descends steeply through the major portion of its catchment to the west of the Lebombo mountains. The Pongola passes between the Lebombo and Ubombo ranges through a narrow gorge (known as Pongolapoort) and the lower reaches of the river lie on the Maputuland coastal plain east of the mountains in northern KwaZulu-Natal.
Here, the river has a slope of 1 in 3 000; the abrupt change in gradient stems the flow rate of the river on the plain, causing a deposition of part of the sediment load and the flooding of extensive areas adjacent to the river course. This broad alluvial plain, known as the Pongola floodplain, extends from the gorge to the confluence of the Pongola and the Usutu rivers, close to the border with Mozambique.

Testing Space Lettuce, A Rocket, and Nuclear Power in Japan | Vol. 2 / No. 42
August 16, 2015 RFB
Fresh vegetables on the ISS; Photo: NASA
Space Lettuce
This week saw a major step forward in our quest to conquer the stars — if a humble-seeming one. Three astronauts on the International Space Station ate some lettuce. The reason this seemingly mundane event is even noteworthy is because it's the first time we've ever grown vegetables for human consumption anywhere other than Earth. And it's harder than you'd think — microgravity is not the kind of environment you'd want to try traditional planting in, unless you like dirt flying everywhere and getting into your probably very important computer systems. Plus it's a little hard to come by natural light cycles up there — day and night aren't exactly twelve hours each when you're inside a metal tube hurtling around the Earth at over 17,000 miles per hour. The system that makes this possible is known as "Veggie" and it's made by a company called Orbitec. Veggie combines two things: a novel "pillow" design that holds the roots and the growing medium (that's what's taking the place of soil), and a lighting system to provide the plants with energy. The fact that the first crop of lettuce is edible (and tastes, apparently, like arugula) is great news, and means they can move on to the next phase of the experiment, which is to try growing and pollenating flowers on the ISS. If pollenation can happen, then space veggies won't be limited to just leaves: they might even be able to get tomatoes or bell peppers up there. In related news, Orbitec is currently working with some of the less hospitable places in the world, like Dubai, to help them grow more of their own food in indoor, controlled environments. Check out the Guardian for a video of the astronauts trying the lettuce, and the video on this NASA page for an interview with Paul Zampirelli of Orbitec for more.
The sixth static-fire test of the RS-25; Photo: NASA
If you're not aware, NASA's still engineering and testing its was to having its own rocket again: the Space Launch System, or SLS. You could be forgiven for not knowing much about it, because it's just not as flashy as the launches by SpaceX and Orbital. But it's going to pack a hell of a punch when it finally takes off. This week they performed the sixth of seven firing tests of the RS-25, the engine that's going to power the core stage of the SLS. If you remember how powerful the test of the solid rocket boosters was (you know, the ones Orbital is making), you should totally check out the latest RS-25 test. It thunders along for nearly nine minutes, and even from the tape you can get a feel for just how powerful this thing is. Technically, it's the same engine that used to power the space shuttle into orbit, but with a few modifications and updates. Except that in the case of the SLS, there'll be four of them going off at once. Oh, and if you're worried about all that smoke, don't be: it's steam. The RS-25 uses hydrogen and oxygen as its two fuels. Check out io9 for some sweet gifs, and the NASA website for more information.
The new logo for Google's parent company; Photo: Alphabet
In case you missed it, Google's changing it's name to Alphabet, and making a new company named Google to replace the old one. Or, it's making a new parent company for itself, and giving a lot of the companies it's bought over the last few years to it's new parent company so they can be more like siblings. Either way, it's a little confusing, so if you haven't seen it, go check out my explainer on the subject from earlier this week. As for the new logo, I really can't stand that lower-case "a," but otherwise I suppose it's fine. More on the logo from Wired.

Japan's Nuclear Power
The first nuclear reactor in Japan to go online since the Fukushima disaster has been restarted this week. Reactor number 1 at Kyushu Electric's Sendai Power Plant is the first nuclear power plant to come back online after a complete shutdown of all nuclear power in the country following the evacuation of 160,000 people in the wake of the worst contamination since Chernobyl. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe faces strong pushback from the Japanese public over the decision, but the government maintains that the new standards will protect the population while helping them to reduce the huge amounts of natural gas they've been forced to import since the shutdown. Reactor number 2 is scheduled to restart in October. Check out Reuters for more information.
And in slightly related news, a new design for a fusion reactor has made the news this week, being the latest in a line of recent advances in the technology. The (I kid you not) ARC reactor takes advantage of materials advances to create stronger magnetic fields, meaning that — in theory at least — it could be smaller and less expensive while still producing the same power. Scientists at MIT claim they could be as few as ten years away from a production model that produces three times the power it consumes, but everyone's staying skeptical until they see it work. As the old chestnut goes: fusion is the power of the future, and it always will be. Check out phys.org for more.
As ever, there's more news in the week than I can possibly cover. But here's a list of links so you can follow up on them yourself.
Samsung teased its new Gear smartwatch that's coming next month
Photovoltaic prices have dropped for a fifth consecutive year
A new video game, Flock, has an interesting twist that may lead to some great game engagement: planned obsolescence

Samsung's made the biggest-ever hard drive, and

The best SSDs can supercharge your PC. Some are tougher than others. Click here to check out our picks for the best SSDs under $130, what to look for in an SSD, what peripherals go well with them, and more.
SSD drives have been pretty pricey in the past, but as technologies evolve, prices typically get better. In 2019, you can now get a 1 TB SSD drive on sale for $100. Our favorite budget SSD is available for cheaper than it's ever been.
Amazon is currently offering Samsung's 860 QVO 1TB 2.5-inch SATA III Internal SSD for a little over $100. You can find the 1TB Samsung 860 QVO SSD for $108 on Amazon, from it's MSRP of $130, and less than the 1TB Samsung 860 EVO's current price of $148. The Samsung 860 QVO is an excellent option for both multimedia enthusiasts and gamers looking to upgrade their drives.
Utilizing a SATA III cable and a technology known as quad-level cells (QLC), the drive is designed to be affordable, but not necessarily the most speedy. If you've been using a typical hard disk drive, the Samsung 860 QVO will be a definite upgrade, but if you're used to faster SSDs, you may be left wanting for a bit more performance.
Many may not have heard of the QVO line before. This is Samsung's first consumer-grade quad-level cell (QLC) NAND drive. QLC NAND crams in four bits per cell versus three-bit per cell on the TLC NAND, which underlies the 860 EVO. The end result is that with QLC, SSD makers can offer greater storage capacities at a lower cost.
The downside of QLC is that you often have to take a hit in performance for all that capacity. Writing more bits to a NAND cell [3 vs. 4] takes more time. Write speeds can take a serious hit when the QVO's cache gets exhausted, which is rare however, and only seen during big file transfers such as downloading two 50GB games one after the other. That's not a terrible trade-off for most people, and for $108/1TB that's a good deal.
With the fastest M.2 1 TB SSD drives costing near $250, the QVO is designed to bring large amounts of storage to consumers at an affordable price. With a standard low price tag of $129, Amazon's deal brings the Samsung 860 QVO 1 TB drive down to an even lower price. Excellent for both media enthusiasts, who wish to store large libraries of music and movies, and gamers, who see themselves installing large 50GB game files at a time, this drive will prove useful in a few scenarios.


Sales of American Gold Eagle Coins up Nearly 300% in October.
Through October 2016, American Gold Eagle Sales Have Already Surpassed Last Year's Total.
Sales of one ounce American Gold Eagle coins spiked 287% in October year over year to 100,500. After a 378% increase in sales of one ounce American Gold Eagle coins (AGEs) in May year over year and elevated sales in June, sales of American Gold Eagles took a breather in July. Sales of American Gold Eagles came roaring back in August with a 67% increase over July. In September, sales of one ounce American Gold Eagles increased to 79,000, up 58% from August.
October sales of one ounce American Gold Eagles surged 27% from September's elevated levels.
October sales of American Gold Eagle coins were the highest monthly total in 2016.
In October 2016, the U.S. Mint also sold 75,000 one tenth ounce AGEs; 16,000 one quarter ounce AGEs, and 8,000 one half ounce AGEs. Together with the 100,500 one ounce American Gold Eagles sold in October, the U.S. Mint sold a total of 199,000 American Gold Eagle coins in various denominations representing 116,000 ounces of gold. In September 2016, the U.S. Mint sold a total of 94,000 ounces of gold in the form of American Gold Eagle coins.
Sales of American Gold Eagle coins in October were the fifth largest total of any October since 1986.
An increased interest in gold in 2016 has made gold one of the best performing financial assets through June 2016. While U.S. Mint gold sales have increased year over year, they are far from the manic sales of 1998-1999 and 2009 and 2010 when well over a million one ounce American Gold Eagle coins were sold each year. U.S. gold investment has increasingly taken the form of gold exchange traded funds (ETFs) or other non-physical gold products. In eastern countries like China, India and Russia, increased gold demand has been in the form of physical gold bullion, due in part to lack of trust in financially traded investment vehicles.
Sales of American Gold Eagle coins in 2016 are on pace for their best year since 2011.
As of the end of October 2016, U.S. Mint has sold 665,500 one ounce American Gold Eagle coins in 2016, up from 546,000 or 22% sold from January – October 2015.
If sales of one ounce American Gold Eagle sales average 66,550 a month (665,500 one ounce gold eagles sold through October, divided by ten), sales will be about 800,000 one ounce AGE's in 2016 or about 28% higher than the 626,500 one ounce AGEs sold in 2016.

Please can anyone help me in this regard.

A: I had to make sure the user running my program had the appropriate AD read permissions other than that this should get you close:
var ad = new PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain, _domain, _ldapPathOu);

UserPrincipal user = UserPrincipal.FindByIdentity(ad, username);
DirectoryEntry entry = user.GetUnderlyingObject() as DirectoryEntry;
DirectorySearcher mySearcher = new DirectorySearcher(entry);
SearchResultCollection results;
mySearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("msDS-ResultantPSO");

results = mySearcher.FindAll();

if (results.Count >= 1)
{
    string pso = results[0].Properties["msDS-ResultantPSO"][0].ToString();

    //do something with the pso..
    DirectoryEntry d = new DirectoryEntry(@"LDAP://corp.example.com/"+ pso);

    var searchForPassPolicy = new DirectorySearcher(d);
    searchForPassPolicy.Filter = @"(objectClass=msDS-PasswordSettings)";
    searchForPassPolicy.SearchScope = System.DirectoryServices.SearchScope.Subtree;

    searchForPassPolicy.PropertiesToLoad.AddRange(new string[] {"msDS-MaximumPasswordAge"});
    var x = searchForPassPolicy.FindAll();

    var maxAge = (Int64)x[0].Properties["msDS-MaximumPasswordAge"][0];
    var maxPwdAgeInDays = ConvertTimeToDays(maxAge);
}
