Meningitis case at Children's National Hospital raises concerns about antibiotic resistance
A recent meningitis case at Children's National Hospital raises serious concerns about antibiotic resistance in the common bacterium that caused it, researchers from the hospital write in a case report.
Exercise equipment in communal gyms have high levels of antibiotic-resistant bacteria
Research presented at ASM Microbe Online found that 43% of Staphylococcus bacteria found on exercise equipment in university gyms were ampicillin-resistant, with 73% of those isolates being resistant to multiple additional drugs.
Raw-type dog food contains high levels of multidrug-resistant bacteria
Microorganisms that infect animals, such as dogs, have the potential to jump to humans and cause illness. Zoonosis is a disease that can spread from animals to humans. These diseases pose health risks, mainly that some types can become life-threatening. Now, a study warns that raw-type dog food contains high levels of multidrug-resistant bacteria, which has the potential of transmitting the bacteria between dogs and humans.
Epiglottitis linked to teenager's use of e-cigarettes
A teenage girl with no hint of prior asthma or respiratory illness began to feel hoarseness in her throat and a feeling that she needed to clear her throat frequently.
Study finds antibiotic-resistance in Tanzania as an environmental problem
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are prevalent in people, wildlife and the water in northeastern Tanzania, but it's not antibiotic use alone driving resistance. Instead, researchers at Washington State University found transmission of bacteria in the environment is the most important factor.
Bandages sense infections, change color, treat infection
In what reads like science fiction, a new study published in the journal ACS Central Science reports the development of bandages that detect the presence of bacteria in wounds and change color, depending on whether they are drug-sensitive or drug-resistant. This is an important step in helping patients recover better.
Aging of urine fertilizer prevents transfer of antibiotic resistance
The use of human urine as fertilizer is an important step towards sustainable agriculture because the starting reagent is free, plentiful and useless in most other contexts. It has been used as such for centuries, but with the current focus on environmental sustainability, the possibility of creating a nutrient cycle is under scrutiny. In other words, sourcing fertilizer from urine can be a green way to supply plants with the nutrients they need.
Tackling antibiotic resistance head-on with CRISPR
With modern advances in genetic engineering occurring almost every day, the latest discovery concerns antibiotic resistance. Using the powerful gene editor CRISPR, scientists reported the development of a gene-drive system that is 100 times as efficient as other current systems at inactivating a specific bacterial gene responsible for making the bacterium antibiotic-resistant and which is present as multiple copies within the same bacterial cell.
New gene technology shows 100-fold efficiency in targeting antibiotic-resistant bacteria
Taking advantage of powerful advances in CRISPR gene editing, scientists at the University of California San Diego have set their sights on one of society's most formidable threats to human health.

New clinical practice guideline published for adults with community acquired pneumonia
The American Thoracic Society and the Infectious Diseases Society of America have published an official clinical guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of adults with community acquired pneumonia (CAP) in the ATS's Oct. 1 American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine.
African bacterium resists almost all drugs
It looks like it's time to pay the piper. The first extensively drug-resistant (XDR) strain of Salmonella typhimurium, called ST313 sublineage II.1, has cropped up in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). This fails to respond to any of the antibiotics that are commonly used in the DRC, except for ciprofloxacin. And to make things worse, one sample has been isolated that shows incomplete response even to this last drug.
Antibiotic resistance in dolphins mirrors disturbing trend in humans
Antibiotic resistance in bottlenose dolphins shows that up to 88% of pathogenic organisms in this species is resistant to one or more antibiotics. This finding offers very useful insights into the identical phenomenon in humans. This species is termed a sentinel species, which means it reflects environmental risks to humans in advance of their occurrence in humans.
Researchers reveal virulence regulatory mechanism in a superbug
As antibiotic resistance is growing and posing a threat on public health, developing new antibiotics has become more urgent than ever.
New machine-learning approach discovers mechanism that helps antibiotics kill bacteria
Most antibiotics work by interfering with critical functions such as DNA replication or construction of the bacterial cell wall.

How to Get Smarter—By Tomorrow, If Necessary!
Strategies that fight brain fog, forgetfulness and random blank-outs so you're always mentally sharp.
Recently i had to explain to a very nice—and visibly puzzled—Verizon Wireless technician that I needed a new Treo because my last one was frozen. Literally. I'd lost it, and after scouring my entire house, car and three different purses, I finally called the dang thing from my landline. My freezer started ringing. There it was—wedged between the ice cube trays and frozen yogurt, feebly chiming away, taking its last electronic gasps. I'd been venting to a friend on the phone as I made myself a glass of ice water and must've put the phone back with the ice tray after we hung up.
I'm only thirtysomething, but fuzzy-headed things happen more than I'd like. Names are the worst. I recently spent an entire evening chatting with a cool, potential new friend and said, "We should totally get together next weekend, Jen!" Her name was Stephanie.
Admit it: I'm not alone. So what's happening here? "Research shows that for some, memory and mental sharpness begin to decline in the early thirties, although most people don't notice a real change until their forties or fifties," says Gary Small, M.D., director of the UCLA Center on Aging. In fact, doctors have seen physical evidence of memory impairment—small plaque buildups—on the brains of young men and women. Also spied in young women's gray matter: neurological "tangles" that may prevent messages ("I need my laptop in the den") from reaching the right destination in your mind ("Uh, what did I come into this room for again?"). That's not to say that just because you forgot your gym locker combination, there's something wrong with your brain; experts say mild, occasional mental blips are normal and nothing to worry about. But if you space out many times a day or feel like mental lapses are seriously impacting you, check in with your doctor, says Michael F. Roizen, M.D., chair of the Wellness Institute at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio and coauthor of You: The Owner's Manual, since medical issues like thyroid problems, sleep disorders and anemia can cause memory loss.
You've probably heard that doing crossword puzzles or learning a different language can help you preserve your smarts. But really, researchers say, anything that challenges your brain in a new way can sharpen your mind. Learning how to rock climb, driving somewhere you've never been before, even brushing your teeth with your nondominant hand will do it. "Brain-scan studies show that pushing your mind this way activates different circuits and strengthens connections between brain cells so they communicate better," says Dr. Small. In a large study at the Rush Alzheimer's Disease Center in Chicago, elderly people who continually challenged their minds had a 33 percent lower risk of getting Alzheimer's disease over the next four years than people who didn't do such mental exercise; they also had 60 percent less overall memory decline.
One of the major reasons many of us aren't as clear-headed as we could be is that we have too many distractions, says Dr. Small. First, there's the tech factor: BlackBerrys, cell phones, e-mail, computers, Internet, iPods, Kindles, etc. "Technology has been shown to greatly lessen people's attention spans," he explains. That's mostly because these gadgets encourage multitasking in the extreme—and when your mind is in several places at once, it's hard to think about any one thing very clearly. A recent study from the University of Missouri in Columbia found that the average person can't keep more than three or four ideas or tasks in their head at the same time. "Beyond that, your brain simply overloads and starts dropping things," says study coauthor and professor of psychology Nelson Cowan, Ph.D. Indeed, in a different study, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, found that multitasking seriously disrupted normally sharp twentysomethings' ability to use a new skill they'd learned.
In an ideal world, we'd all multitask less. But since most of us find that virtually impossible, we should at least get enough "brain rest," says Orli Etingin, M.D., founder and medical director of the Iris Cantor Women's Health Center in New York City. She recommends 45 minutes a day of do-nothingness. You can listen to music, read a book or go for a walk—any quiet, relatively passive activity counts (but not watching TV, which excites, rather than eases, your brain). It's during calm times like these that brain cell growth occurs, and you need that rejuvenation to maintain (or boost) your mental function. "I've seen lots of young women in my practice who, once they started slowing down and giving their mind a rest during the day, found that all of a sudden they were much sharper than before," says Dr. Etingin.
"If you look at all the evidence, physical exercise has the strongest protective effect on the brain, more than diet, mental stimulation or anything else," says Dr. Small. "And not only does it prevent memory and cognition from declining; it's been shown to improve it." A study of 18- to 27-year-olds at Rhode Island College found that 30 minutes of aerobic exercise such as swimming, fast walking or stair climbing significantly increased the participants' creativity levels (as measured partly by storytelling ability and articulateness)—a boost that happened immediately and was still in effect when they were tested again two hours later. "Exercise improves circulation, so more oxygen gets to your brain," says Dr. Small. "In fact, research shows that the regions of the brain tied to memory are physically larger in exercisers than in nonexercisers. Working out actually helps grow brain cells."
More reason to treat yourself to eight hours of shut-eye a night: Researchers in Singapore recently found that after just one night of sleep deprivation, people's brains had periodic "power failures" during which their minds were, essentially, asleep. "This is proof that you are much more prone to mental lapses and mistakes when you don't get enough rest," says Dr. Roizen. And there's a cumulative effect. "The more nights you skimp, the more off' your brain will be," he says. What's more, studies show that learning and memory are solidified in the brain during sleep—so if you miss out, new knowledge you gain could slip right out of your head.
Whether it's meditation, singing karaoke or browsing clearance shoes at DSW, any activity that cuts stress will help you think more clearly. "Stress hormones can cause the part of the brain responsible for memory to shrink over time," says Dr. Small. Even a few hours of anxiety can dull your edge. Scientists at the University of California, Irvine, found short bouts of stress cause the body to release hormones that disrupt the way information is processed and stored. What that means: Facts that may have been front-of-mind five minutes ago (like the name of the person you were shaking hands with) get lost in that great mental filing cabinet of yours and can't be called up when you need them.
"We've found that omega-3 fatty acids, which are in foods like fish, avocados, walnuts and flax seeds, might aid in brain cell repair and improve mental functioning," says Dr. Roizen. The exact amount you need hasn't been well established, but research does show that the positive effects of eating more of these foods can be seen after a few months. And Dr. Small says he's seen changes in his patients after just a matter of weeks.
Spending even 10 minutes talking to someone can improve your memory and intellectual performance as much as mental exercises like studying or doing puzzles, according to a University of Michigan study. The findings also suggest that isolation could impair memory.
Having a strong cup of coffee or caffeinated tea can improve your learning and recall ability and make you more focused in the short term, research shows. But beware of overguzzling—having more than one cup at a time could make you twitchy.

fine:1 In criminal law, sum of money exacted by a lawful tribunal as punishment for a crime. In the case of misdemeanors and minor infractions of the law, convicted persons ordinarily have the alternative of paying a fine or undergoing a short term of imprisonment. This practice has been condemned at times as potentially exposing the poor to more onerous punishment than the well-to-do. Fines are also sometimes imposed in convictions for felony, usually in addition to a prison sentence. The Eighth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States prohibits the imposition of excessive fines, but the Supreme Court has never found that any statutory fine violated that provision. 2 In the law of the transfer of land, a legal fiction for permitting the sale of lands in entail. The fine, first worked out in the 15th cent., is in the form of a suit to determine the ownership of land. The buyer sues the seller, who accedes to the buyer's claim that his right of ownership is superior. The judgment of the court to this effect constitutes the buyer's title. The fine was formerly widely used in England and the United States, but simplified methods of defeating the entail have made it obsolete. 3 In feudal law, payment to the lord for rights relating to tenancy, e.g., for the privilege of releasing to another or acquiring for oneself the tenancy of land.

What's in the Rider Bag?
We are changing things up a bit this year! Chico Velo works very hard with our sponsors to offer something unique to our riders that reflects our goal for a Zero Waste Event and is something you can reuse time and again remembering your ride with us each time.
NOTE: We will have only a LIMITED STOCK of water bottles if you need one. We are NOT giving every rider a water bottle this year in a rider bag.
Why no water bottle? Based upon our rider survey's majority of riders are inundated with water bottles and don't really care for another one. Plus, handing out 3000+ plastic water bottles goes against our mission for a zero waste event. So, we are trying something new this year. Again, we will have a limited number of water bottles, just in case you forget one or need a new one.

Q: SwiftUI: Creating own data types and work with them. How? currently I am programming my first own app in SwiftUI. I want to create a custom datatype called "Exercise". For this I have created a struct:
struct Exercise: Identifiable {
    var id = UUID()
    var name: String = ""
    var description: String?
}

Also I have a class with different data where I have created a instance of that struct in form of an array:
var exercise: [Exercise] = []

Now I want to append to these array with a new element in a different view where I have a textfield for the name of the Exercise and a textfield for the description. But I don't know how I can do this. Can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my English :)
EDIT:
Code with the View where I want to append a new element to the class with the Array "exercise":
var body: some View {
    NavigationView {
        VStack(spacing: 20){

            Text("Name")
                .alignmentNewExercise()
                .font(.title)

            TextField(placeholder, text: $newExercise)
                .alignmentNewExercise()
                .textFieldStyle(RoundedBorderTextFieldStyle())

            TextField("Description", text: $description)
                .alignmentNewExercise()
                .textFieldStyle(RoundedBorderTextFieldStyle())

            Button(action: {
                exercise.name = newExercise
                exercise.description = description

                //data.exercise.append(...) **here I want to add the new element to the array in the class "data", but I don't know how**

                newExercise = ""
            }) {
                Text("Hinzufügen")
            }
            .disabled(validExercise)

            Spacer()
        }
        .navigationBarTitle("Neue Übung")
        .navigationBarItems(trailing:
            Button(action: {
                self.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss()
            }) {
                Text("Zurück")
            })
    }
}

The class with the array:
class Daten: ObservableObject{

     @Published var exercise: [Exercise] = []
 }

A: To append new data you can create a new Exercise and add it to your collection:
let exercise = Exercise(name: self.newExercise, description: self.description)
data.exercise.append(exercise)

Which can be shortened to:
data.exercise.append(Exercise(name: self.newExercise, description: self.description))

Also try using plural names for your collections:
@Published var exercises: [Exercise] = []

It indicates it's a collection and not a single object.

A: You should pass an instance of Daten around. Here I used a singleton object for it as a shared instance:
class Daten: ObservableObject{
    static let shared = Daten()
    @Published var exercise: [Exercise] = []
}

then you can access it and change the value like any other array in Swift:
Button("Hinzufügen") {
    let exercise = Exercise(
        name: self.newExercise,
        description: self.description)

    Daten.shared.exercise.append(exercise)
}

Daniel Karlsson Trio
This is mainly about Daniel Karlsson trio.
Brus/Knaster 049
The Daniel Karlsson Trio has since their album debut Das Taxibåt in September 2013 established themselves as one of the most interesting constellations in Swedish and European jazz. Not least through the magnificent hat trick brought home by their sophomore album Fusion for Fish, released in August 2014 that won the Swedish Radio's Jazz Group of the Year Award 2014, Swedish jazz magazine OJ's Golden Disc 2015 as well as the Swedish Jazz Grammy 2015. Ears were opened abroad as well, their music met with press accolades and frequent airplay in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Italy, in the UK and Ireland.
Their 2016 release, their third album, At the Feel Free Falafel also garnered a lot of attention with favourable reviews and extensive radio play. The same is also true about their fourth full length title Ding Dong released in 2017. An album that has just given them another nomination for a Swedish Grammy Award for best jazz album in 2018.
As before their flow and rather astonishing production of new music continue… Five years after the dynamic trio's record debut we are proud to present their fifth album aptly titled No. 5. Positively brimming with creative music in seven new songs from Daniel Karlsson's prolific pen, as melodic and powerful as always, maybe even more so this time. From the pensive opening tracks Dubious Whisper and Let Me Tell You One More Thing over the wildly swinging Meet the Moiners with its maelstrom middle part to the final No Answer Ballad the trio once more prove themselves as a force to be reckoned with.
5 – Track listing: 1. Dubious Whisper 2. Let Me Tell You One More Thing 3. Salzburg 4. Days Long Lost and Gone 5. In the Tambourine Forge 6. Meet the Moiners 7. No Answer Ballad
The Daniel Karlsson Trio are:
Daniel Karlsson, piano, keyboards
Christian Spering, double bass, cello, dilruba & tar shehnai
Fredrik Rundqvist, drums & percussion
5 will be released on LP, CD and as a digital album.
"In a market where piano trios abound, the Daniel Karlsson Trio stands out as a trio brimming with ideas. As for Karlsson, whilst he's not afraid to show his influences he certainly isn't defined or confined by them. His riveting playing and compositional flare mark him out as one of the most exciting of contemporary pianists…" Ian Patterson, All about jazz

Kasaya is attachment to worldly objects and is an obstacle in the path leading to Nirvikalpa Samadhi: it is overcome through viveka, discrimination.

Meaning

Kasaya or Kashāya (Sanskrit: कषाय) means, 'astringent', 'decay', 'smearing', 'juice', 'degeneracy', 'anointing',  'gum', 'resin', 'red-brown', 'stupidity', 'defect', 'fragrant'. It also means 'attachment to worldly objects' or to 'the yellowish-red garments worn by monks'.

Overview

Sadananda defines Kasaya as attachment to worldly objects, the failure of the mental state to rest on the Absolute, owing to the numbness brought on by impressions due to attachment even when there is no torpidity or distraction (Vedantasara)  (Sl.212). In Vedanta,  the word Kasaya denotes metaphorically a rigid state of mind hardened by one's own inclinations and passions.

Jiva

Rishi Gautama Nodha (Rig Veda I.58.3) describes the Jiva in the following words:-

क्राणा रुद्रेभिर्वसुभिः पुरोहितो होता निषत्तो रयिषाळमर्त्यः|
रथो न विक्ष्वृञ्जसान आयुषु वयानुषग्वार्या देव ऋण्वति ||

"That is the Jiva (क्राणा – the spotless achiever of good deeds) who should be known as the one who moves about (निसत्तः) in the bodily form (होता) applying and enjoying all substances and thoughts (the gross and the fine) all the while attached to this earth or world (वसुभिः) guided and impelled by the Pranas (रुद्रेभिः) experiencing the varying stages of birth, growth, maturity etc., (आयुषु) and all attendant consequences (ॠञ्ज्सानः) with a view to enjoying the desired happiness and comfort though in reality by itself it is pure and undying. "

And, Rishi Kumaro Yamayana (Rig Veda X.135.6) in the following mantra explains

यथाभवदनुदेयी ततो अग्रमजायत |
पुरस्ताद् बुध्न आततः पश्चान्निरयणं कृतम् ||

that the Paramatman "universal Soul" is the primordial existence, remaining throughout creation, omnipresent, even as the Jivatman "individual Soul" dons a body and experiences bondage to "material objectives" and duality or (unknowing) of that omnipresence

It is the Jiva, who by its actions, attracts to itself the pudgalas (the tendencies that keep an individual re-incarnating), which results in its bondage; all that one enjoys or suffers from are the products of karmas, good or bad.

Gaudapada's exposition

Gaudapada (Gaudapada Karika III.44-45) warns that the seeker after truth should not linger on the bliss of Savikalpa Samadhi because that enjoyment (rasavada), after Laya, Vikshepa and Kasaya, is the fourth kind of obstacle in the path to Nirvikalpa Samadhi; one should be unattached through "viveka", discrimination.  Attachment is a weakness of the mind as it is not easily disciplined  to withdraw from the enjoyment and related effects arising out of desire. He explains: as in dreams where the mind vibrates with dual aspects, so too in the waking state these aspects seem to be all that there is but when the state of"nirati", dissolution of the mind is achieved, duality is no longer perceived. The conduct of the mind in deep sleep (when it loses itself) is not like its conduct in the controlled state (when it does not lose itself), and

ग्रहो न तत्र नोत्सर्गश्चिन्ता यत्र न विद्यते |
आत्मसंस्थं तदा ज्ञानमजाति समतां गतम् ||

"there may be no duality where all mental activity ceases: then, the jivatma attaining oneness with the knowable Brahman becomes established in the Self, unborn and poised in equality" (Gaudapada Karika III.38).

Torpidity or Laya (लय) is overwhelm of the senses and the mental state, falling asleep unable to maintain awareness of the Absolute; and distraction or Vikshepa (विक्षेप) is through failing to be able to rest the mental state on the Absolute, resting it on other things.

Significance

Patanjali (Yoga Sutras II.2) – समाधि – भवनार्थः क्लेश – तनूकरनार्थश्च – assures that by cultivating the power of concentration the obstacles - which cause all suffering -  in the way of enlightenment -  can be removed. The obstacles he refers to are the negative effects of ignorance, egoism, attachment, aversion and the desire to cling to life. And, as regards the enjoyment of bliss attained coinciding the gain of non-conceptual knowledge   Sankara advocating  the understanding of the depth-meaning (lakshyatha) of the Mahavakya Tat Twam Asi, states

प्रत्यग्बोधो या आभाति द्वयानन्दलक्षणः |
अद्वयानन्दरूपश्च प्रत्यग्बोधैकलक्षणः ||

"What appears (as the Witness Consciousness within – the individual Self), is of the nature of Bliss One-without- a- second;   and the one that is the Bliss within is none other than the individualized self the Witnessing Consciousness within"

– which statement  means that owing to the conditioning (vikshepa) in the Jiva, the individual can experience only the "awareness" and not the "bliss" aspect of Brahman.

Dr. Jasper Schelstraete is an FWO postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Literary Studies, Ghent University (2016-2019). His work focuses on the role of print culture in imagining and conceptualizing global markets and finance.
In August 2014 he defended his doctoral dissertation entitled "The Atlantic Between Them: Dickens, Melville, and Nationality in the Transatlantic Market," which argued that trans-Atlantic literary authorship of the nineteenth century must be read in the context of the burgeoning global marketplace. New economic structures like limited liability joint-stock companies lowered the threshold for transatlantic investors, but it was the print sphere that capitalized on them. Authorship came to inform the new notion of investor confidence, thereby creating an opportunity for stockjobbers and venture capitalists to create (and manipulate) strong transnational markets through texts.
As a Belgian American Educational Foundation postdoctoral researcher at Harvard University (2014-2015), Dr. Schelstraete investigated the importance of an informal Harvard-based coterie in the nineteenth-century International Copyright Question. The members of this group formed local markers in the ideologically laden copyright question and fundamentally subverted the nationalized stakes of the debate. Dr. Schelstraete investigated how this group informed American attitudes towards Dickens and Britain on the one hand, and American self-imagining on the other.
As a part of the WeChangEd team (September 2015–September 2016), Dr. Schelstraete was responsible for the development of the comprehensive database of female editors of European periodicals as well as an open public access catalog (OPAC).
Dr. Schelstraete is an associate editor of the open access journal Authorship, and the Book Reviews editor for the open access Journal of European Periodical Studies.

Q: How to use useRef when element is inside condition? The problem is that useRef is triggered during first render.
Two examples when it could be a problem.

*

*When one can have some loading

const Problem1 = () => {
 const ref = useRef();

 if (loading)
     return null;

 return <input ref={ref} value={} />;

}

*When ref is inside some condition.

const Problem2 = () => {
 const ref = useRef();

 return user ? <input ref={ref} value={user.name} /> : <Exit >;

}

sandbox example
https://codesandbox.io/s/nifty-feynman-z68k0
In the second case I at least could show element at the beginning with display: none. But how to solve first problem I have no idea.
What are the best practices in these cases?

A: See if this works for you:
From React DOCS: https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-reference.html#useref

useRef()
However, useRef() is useful for more than the ref attribute. It's handy for keeping any mutable value around similar to how you'd use instance fields in classes.
This works because useRef() creates a plain JavaScript object. The only difference between useRef() and creating a {current: ...} object yourself is that useRef will give you the same ref object on every render.

The useRef object won't change across renders. You'll always have the same reference for the useRef object with a current property. What may change is what you are keeping inside that current property.

function App() {

  const input1_ref = React.useRef(null);
  const input2_ref = React.useRef(null);
  const [showInput2, setShowInput2] = React.useState(false);

  React.useEffect(()=>{
    input1_ref.current ?
      console.log('Input1 has been mounted...')
    : console.log('Input1 has NOT been mounted...');
    input2_ref.current ?
      console.log('Input2 has been mounted...')
    : console.log('Input2 has NOT been mounted...');
  });

  return(
    <React.Fragment>

Input 1

      <input type='text' ref={input1_ref}/>
      {showInput2 &&
        <React.Fragment>

Input 2

          <input type='text' ref={input2_ref}/>
        </React.Fragment>
      }

        <button onClick={()=>setShowInput2((prevState)=>!prevState)}>Click</button>

    </React.Fragment>
  );
}

ReactDOM.render(<App/>, document.getElementById('root'));

A: When your conditional element gets assigned to ref.current, it doesn't cause a rerender. You can use a useCallback instead, which will run a callback when the element gets rendered:
const Problem2 = () => {
 const ref = useCallback(node = () => {
  ...callback code here
 });

 // Code here won't rerun for a change in ref.current

 return user ? <input ref={ref} value={user.name} /> : <Exit >;
}

If you want the whole code of Problem2 to run again (now with a reference to ref), you can add a useState:
const Problem2 = () => {
 const [myInput, setMyInput] = useState(null)
 const ref = useCallback(node => {
  setMyInput(node)
 });

 // Now any code here will run twice, once for myInput
 // equals null, and once when it points to the element

 return user ? <input ref={ref} value={user.name} /> : <Exit >;
}

IBM Taps Former Goldman President Cohn as Vice Chairman
Cohn also served a tumultuous tenure as assistant to President Trump for economic policy in 2017-18.
Dan Weil
Jan 5, 2021 10:26 AM EST
IBM (IBM) - Get Report named former Goldman Sachs (GS) - Get Report executive Gary Cohn vice chairman and a member of the Executive Leadership Team.
Cohn, 60, who was president of Goldman Sachs from 2006 to 2016, also served a tumultuous tenure as President Donald Trump's assistant for economic policy in 2017-18.
"Cohn will work in partnership with [IBM Chief Executive Arvind] Krishna and the IBM Executive Leadership Team on a wide range of business initiatives and external engagement, in areas including business development, client services, public advocacy and client relationship management," the Armonk, N.Y., tech giant said in a statement.
"Gary is a globally respected leader with deep experience operating at the center of business and government," Krishna said.
"As a senior representative of IBM, his knowledge of technology and business transformation, combined with policymaking expertise, will bring unique value to our clients and stakeholders, as we accelerate our hybrid cloud and AI strategy."
Cohn invests in the cybersecurity, blockchain infrastructure, regulatory technology and medical technology sectors, IBM said. He also serves on the boards of several technology companies.
IBM shares recently traded at $125.37, up 1.2%. Eleven months ago IBM shares were trading above $158. They have dropped 22% over the past 10 years.
Morningstar analyst Julie Bhusal Sharma puts fair value for the company at $125.
"While IBM has tried to refresh its diverse offerings, we think IBM's moat is deteriorating, as the cloud transition chips away at IBM's competitive advantage associated with customer switching costs," she wrote in a November commentary.

So how is the client "vision" of the proposed system created? Through prototyping. Working from the defined requirements and the completed models, the System Builder creates a first draft of the client/system interactions. These may be in the form of report or screen layouts. Consideration must be given to the target technical environment, the intended client culture, and the current systems characteristics. All will play a related role in the eventual completed system design.
Review the first-cut Physical Database Design and recross-reference the data structures (derived from the entities) to the proposed screens/forms (from the list created during Conceptual Design).
For each proposed screen/form, identify all of the fields that should be displayed from the associated database structures.
Layout each screen/form using the fields from the associated database structures.
When completed, review each layout for completeness, functionality, and ascetics.
If any new fields are discovered during the screen/form design process, add them to the new database design as well as the newly formatted screens.

"Do Unto Others..." The Twentieth Century
It goes without saying that the great twentieth-century apostle of nonviolence Mohandas Gandhi was a vegetarian. His parents, being devout Hindus, never gave him meat, fish, or eggs. Under British rule, however, there was a great attack on the age-old principles of Indian culture. Under such pressures, many Indians began to adopt the meat-eating habits of the West. Even Gandhi fell victim to the advice of some schoolfriends, who urged him to eat meat because it would increase his strength and courage. But he later resumed a vegetarian diet and wrote, "It is necessary to correct the error that vegetarianism has made us weak in mind, or passive or inert in action. I do not regard flesh-food as necessary at any stage." he wrote five books on vegetarianism. His own daily diet included wheat sprouts, almond paste, greens, lemons, and honey. He founded Tolstoy Farm, a community based on vegetarian principles. In his Moral Basis of Vegetarianism Gandhi wrote, "I hold flesh-food to be unsuited to our species. We err in copying the lower animal world if we are superior to it." He felt that ethical principles are a stronger support for lifelong commitment to a vegetarian diet than reasons of health. "I so feel." he stated, "that spiritual progress does demand at some stage that we should cease to kill our fellow creatures for the satisfaction of our bodily wants."
Playwright George Bernard Shaw first tried to become a vegetarian at age twenty-five. "It was Shelley who first opened my eyes to the savagery of my diet," he wrote in his autobiography. Shaw's doctors warned that the diet would kill him. When an old man, he was asked why he didn't go back and show them what good it had done him. He replied, "I would, but they all passed away years ago." Once someone asked him how it was that he looked so youthful. "I don't," Shaw retorted. "I look my age. It is the other people who look older than they are. What can you expect from people who eat corpses?" On the connection between flesh-eating and violence in human society, Shaw wrote:
We pray on Sundays that we may have light
To guide our footsteps on the path we tread;
We are sick of war, we don't want to fight,
And yet we gorge ourselves upon the dead.
H.G. Wells wrote about vegetarianism in his vision of a future world, A Modern Utopia. "In all the round world of Utopia there is no meat. There used to be. But now we cannot stand the thought of slaughterhouses. And, in a population that is all educated, and at about the same level of physical refinement, it is practically impossible to find anyone who will hew a dead ox or pig ... I can still remember as a boy the rejoicings over the closing of the last slaughterhouse."
Nobel-prize-winning author Isaac Bashevis Singer became a vegetarian in 1962, at the age of fifty-eight. He said, "Naturally I am sorry now that I waited so long, but it is better later than never." He finds vegetarianism quite compatible with his mystical variety of Judaism. "We are all God's creatures - that we pray to God for mercy and justice while we continue to eat the flesh of animals that are slaughtered on our account is not consistent." Although he appreciates the health aspect of vegetarianism, he states very clearly that the ethical consideration is primary. "Even if eating flesh was actually shown to be good for you, I would certainly still not eat it."
Singer has little patience with intellectual rationalizations for meat-eating. "Various philosophers and religious leaders tried to convince their disciples and followers that animals are nothing more than machines without a soul, without feelings. However, anyone who has ever lived with an animal - be it a dog, a bird, or even a mouse - knows that this theory is a brazen lie, invented to justify cruelty."

Our family really enjoyed our stay at this home in Huntington Beach, CA. The location was perfect for us - just a five minute walk to the beach, and within 15 minute walking distance to the pier and the shops. The owners provided so many extras to + Morehelp make our stay convenient and fun: beach chairs, bikes, beach wagon, beach tent and paddleball games. The home was clean and had plenty of towels and linens. The only surprise was that the master suite has a waterbed instead of a regular mattress. We would definitely stay there again!

Q: How can I limit the maximum number of simultaneous MediaWiki to MySQL database connections? We have a MediaWiki wiki on a MySQL database. However, other applications are also accessing MySQL. Currently we have a maximum of 100 maximum connections to the database, of which MediaWiki is allowed 10.
However, at peak times more than 10 users attempt to access the wiki simultaneously which means they can get a MySQL connection error.
Specifically, the message says:

"database name" has a problem
Sorry! This site is experiencing technical difficulties.
Try waiting a few minutes and reloading.
(Can't contact the database server: Unknown error ("mysql database name"))

My thought is to limit within MediaWiki (e.g. in LocalSettings.php) the number of connections attempting to access the database. Then people won't get an error message - they will just have to wait longer.
Is there a way to do that? Or is there a better solution?

A: Within the application is where you would need to do precisely what you are wanting, yes.
I'll take a moment to recommend against that, first: It appears that the site is getting enough use that it needs more database connections, and this type of thing may not really be able to be helped overall. (I can only assume, for example, that MediaWiki is not written such that it is needlessly using extra connections than it needs to)
My basic thought here is, if at all possible, try to give the site what it needs to operate. If that would cause trouble with the shared MySQL server, perhaps that bottleneck needs to be addressed. Whether it's a wait or an error, failure to connect to the database will drive a certain number of users from the site, and is just generally creating a negative experience for them.

The 'easy' solution would be to change the error message to be a more friendly one, but that may not address the problems.
Assuming you can not raise the 10-connection limit, the application may need to be altered (and perhaps quite extensively) such that every database connection attempt is wrapped in code which catches failures to connect, waits a pre-determined time, and tries again a certain number of times.
You may be lucky, and MediaWiki may have such functionality in it which can be configured in. Someone more familiar could help with that, if so. Another (more likely) point of lucky-ness would be if the DB access code is very tightly contained, and so this solution would not be a matter of changing 300+ places in the code to do this (a time-consuming and aggravating prospect, to say the least).
I would only recommend such a solution if it is very infrequent that these errors happen. If it's a regular occurrence, it could just end up bringing the site to a crawl, where it's waiting/retrying DB connections constantly... and still ending up returning an error eventually, anyway.


Great for promoting International Mindedness.
Science, Social Studies and more.
Each student is assessed prior to being admitted to the school.
Generations schools, as private, English medium international curriculum schools, practice a selective admissions process in which each student is assessed prior to being admitted to the school. Enrolment decisions are based upon expectations of meeting the needs of each student according to professional education standards and in order to provide an academic environment to best serve the interests of the student, school and community.
Although GenCE primary schools aim to have challenging learning programmes of the highest quality, the emphasis is on whole child development, not simply academic achievement, and admission decisions will reflect this.
Applicants must be age appropriate for the year.
Applicants must be age appropriate for the year. The cut-off date is December 31st, and students will usually start Year 1 during the year they turn five (5) and Year 7 during the year they turn eleven (11).
Generations Christian Education schools welcome all children and families regardless of race, creed, colour, gender or national origin.
To welcome new children into school and secure a smooth transition for them and their families.
To provide school places for children who will be able to access our international, English medium curriculum independently and successfully in the school's environment.
To develop student bodies that are international, both in nationality in line with EDB guidelines, and in heart and outlook as we seek to develop a global people of Christian faith serving others, in line with Generations' mission.
To develop school communities made of children and families who support the Generations vision and mission, and are committed to developing the values and personal goals.
Applicant is a student at a GenCE school (normally for at least one academic year – may be shorter if arrived in Hong Kong mid-academic year from overseas).
Applicant has a sibling who is already in the primary school (or who is a graduate thereof) to which they're applying, provided the length of time at that school is sufficiently long to indicate support. Normally, a GenCE Kindergarten graduate will have priority over a younger sibling attending a different Kindergarten.
Applicant has a sibling attending another GenCE school, provided the length of time at that school is sufficiently long to indicate support.
Their family is from overseas, and seeks an international education for their children.
There must be space available in the year band assigned.
Assessments will be performed to determine if applicants can perform with high proficiency in an English language teaching medium, and can meet behaviour and academic standards for their year level in a self-directed, independent manner. Additionally, applicants for spaces in Year 2 or above will be assessed and expected to meet academic standards commensurate with curricular expectations in the school.
In addition to being assessed and expected to meet academic standards commensurate with curricular expectations in the school, applicants should also be interviewed to determine if the applicant's attitudes and approaches to learning and alignment with the vision, mission, and values indicate a good fit for the school.
Families agree to embrace the school's vision, mission, values and educational philosophy.
In order to ensure that families understand this expectation that they support the vision, mission, philosophy and values prior to accepting a place for their child, they will be clearly stated in admissions information, at parent information sessions and in school literature and website generally. If possible, face-to-face meetings with parents should be arranged to evaluate this.
Parents are encouraged to research the school thoroughly by visiting the school themselves; using the website; and any other published information. Applications will only be processed after at least one parent/legal guardian has attended a school tour.
An application form and all required supporting documentation should be completed and returned to the school with the relevant application fee. The form must be signed by at least one parent or legal guardian. If a legal guardian is designated, a legal authorisation letter stating the nature of the guardianship is required.
The school shall accept non-priority applications from September 1 – October 31st (General Application Period), but shall retain the right to accept applications after such period, especially to accommodate families moving into Hong Kong during the school year.
Applications will not be prioritised by date of receipt (except applications in Priority Process relative to General Application Period).
Include any relevant supporting documentation If requires any additional support.
If an applicant has had testing or received services for learning support, has health or physical concerns, needs any prescribed medication or has any other circumstances that may affect the applicant, their application must include relevant supporting documentation in order to assist the interview process.
Only children for whom the school has received a full & complete application, may be invited for an interview.
If, according to the Principal's professional discretion, a student is not invited to interview, their application fee cheque must not be processed.
The content and format of the interviews will vary, depending on the year level for which the child(ren) are being evaluated.
a. For Priority Process for year 1 places, interviews will be conducted in September-October. These may be conducted at either the Kindergarten, or Primary campus, as determined and agreed to be most effective by the Principals.
c. Ad hoc throughout year: normally, within three weeks from receipt of the complete application.
Interviews for Year 1 and Year 7 mainstream intakes will normally take place on Saturday mornings. Ad hoc or additional interviews may take place during the school week, as needed.
The school will have a professional panel of interviewers consisting of teachers from appropriate year levels, school leadership representative(s) and member(s) of the Learning Support Services Team, in order to make fair and consistent professional judgments on a child's potential to succeed in the school, if accepted. The interviewing team (minimum two persons) will use an agreed set of evaluation forms to facilitate consistency in the decision-making process.
At the time of the child's interview, the parent/legal guardian should be asked pertinent questions to determine their support for the Generations vision, mission, values and educational philosophy.
A follow-up interview may be required, at no additional cost to parents, if particular issues need to be addressed.
Year 1-Year 6: HK$116,500, paid in ten monthly payments of HK$11,650.
Year 7: HK$128,300, paid in ten monthly payments of HK$12,830.
Parents should attend a School Tour for more detailed information regarding the school fees structure as well as the school vision, curriculum and learning environment before submitting an application.
Applicants must be age appropriate for the year. The cut-off date is December 31st, and students will usually start Year 1 during the year they turn five (5) and Year 7 during the year they turn eleven (11). The table below indicates the year of birth for children in each year group at Generations Christian Education schools.
Regardless of the decision, parents are to be informed in writing of the school's decision as soon as practical, and normally within three weeks of the interview.
Parents should accept the place by signing and returning the relevant enrolment acceptance forms within a specified period of time (normally, one/ two weeks) of the receipt of the offer letter. The terms and conditions of the offer of place at the school must be clearly stated in the letter, including terms of fees.
Children who are not offered a place, in the initial round of offers, may be placed in a waitpool.
Generations prefers the term waitpool to waitlist, because the waitpool does not imply a numerical list of hierarchical priority. The order in which any offer is made to a child who is in the waitpool will be at the sole discretion of the school, based on the needs of the school.
a. Places in the waitpool for Primary schools are valid for one school year only.
b. If a child (other than Kindergarten candidate) is not offered a place during the current school year, the family would need to re-apply and pay another application fee if it wishes to submit an application in subsequent years.
c. The terms and conditions of the waitpool, and any potential subsequent offer, (e.g. not guaranteed and at school's sole discretion) must be clearly explained in the letter to parents.
For children whose application is declined, the parents will be informed of the school's decision in writing.
If a child is not offered a place during the current school year, he/she is welcome to reapply for another academic year. Please note that such applicants would need to submit a new application and application fee.
Include any relevant supporting documentation if any additional support is required.
At the time of the child's interview, the parent/legal guardian should be asked pertinent questions to determine their support for the Generations vision, mission, values and educational philosophy. Parents must be told that this is a criteria for admission.
