Q: Display Array List in Accordion? I have an array of different times .How can I display the array elements like in the photo below .
const doctorSchedule =["08:00","08:10","08:20","08:30","08:40","08:50","09:00","09:10","09:20","09:30","09:40","09:50","10:00","10:10","10:20","10:30","10:40","10:50",]

A: You can reduce the time slots by putting them into buckets based on the hour. After you group them, you can iterate through the entries and create accordion items for each hour and generate radio buttons for each of the time slots in the hour bucket.

const doctorSchedule = [
  "08:00", "08:10", "08:20", "08:30", "08:40", "08:50",
  "09:00", "09:10", "09:20", "09:30", "09:40", "09:50",
  "10:00", "10:10", "10:20", "10:30", "10:40", "10:50",
];

const slots = doctorSchedule.reduce((acc, time) =>
  ((hour) => ({ ...acc, [hour]: [...(acc[hour] ?? []), time] }))
  (parseInt(time.split(':')[0], 10)), {});

$('.accordion').append(Object.entries(slots).map(([hour, times]) =>
  $('
')
    .addClass('accordion-item')
    .append($('
')
      .addClass('accordion-header')
      .attr('id', `heading-${hour}`)
        .append($('<button>')
          .addClass('accordion-button collapsed')
          .prop('type', 'button')
          .attr('aria-expanded', 'true')
          .attr('aria-controls', 'collapseOne')
          .attr('data-bs-toggle', 'collapse')
          .attr('data-bs-target', `#collapse-${hour}`)
          .text(`${(hour + '').padStart(2, '0')}:00`)))
    .append($('
')
      .addClass('accordion-collapse collapse')
      .attr('id', `collapse-${hour}`)
      .attr('aria-labelledby', `#heading-${hour}`)
      .append($('
')
        .addClass('accordion-body')
        .append(times.map(time =>
          $('
')
            .addClass('form-check form-check-inline')
            .append($('<input>')
              .addClass('form-check-input')
              .prop('type', 'radio')
              .attr('name', 'time-slot'))
            .append($('')
              .addClass('form-check-label')
              .text(time))
            ))))));

I think when people are talking about Intel and NVIDIA, they are comparing where NVDA is now to where INTC was in early 90s, at the beginning of the PC boom rather than fundamentals of where both are currently.
Intel also comes up because it is a competitor. People can debate how much of a threat they are currently and potentially.
There is no doubt NVDA is expensive. Also that they have a positive future.
For me, I am happy with where they are in my portfolio but will be keeping a close eye for anything that comes up to give me pause. They are currently at 5%, mostly by growing, not by funds allocated. I would like to say I won't trim just based on valuation, but if they get really crazy ex[pensive, I will have to see.

Parkwood Middle School Presents: "The Lion King"
Parkwood Middle School Theatre students undertook the incredible challenge of presenting one of Disney's most well known stories, "The Lion King". Featuring students from all three grade levels, "The Lion King" was an enormous success.
The 7 th graders of Parkwood Middle School had the opportunity to listen to four veterans share their war experiences and learned how to fold an American Flag on May 16th and 17th in the media center. James Crump (WWII), Bill Raum (Vietnam), Jim Hood (Vietnam), and Bill Lane (Vietnam) came from the Indian Trail VFW to talk to the students about what they encountered during war.
The Chinese culture is a rich one, with many traditions and unique qualities for students to study. A group of students from Ms. Wang's Chinese class were able to learn even more about the complex society by visiting "Discover China Day", sponsored by UCPS.
Last week the PWMS 7th and 8th Grade Bands competed at the Middle School MPA, a contest sponsored by the South Central District Bandmasters Association. After performing several challenging pieces at each of their events, both bands earned a rating of "Excellent" according to the scoring system and were only a few points away from a "Superior" rating.
This weekend the Parkwood Middle School Science Olympiad Team participated in the regional competition held in Laurenberg, North Carolina. This was the team's first year competing, and they were looking forward to getting some experience and learning the ropes. They never expected that they would come home with 12 medals, and overall second place varsity team finish, and an invitation to compete at the state Science Olympiad Competition held in Raleigh next month.

Theatre and Science came together in an unlikely combination in 8th grade science classes at Parkwood Middle School. The result was a highly engaging lesson that allowed students to use inference skills and deductive reasoning to diagnose their classmates.
Students and Staff at Parkwood Middle School are getting ready to celebrate the big game this Sunday! Our cafeteria features an incredible mural created by Ms. Howie's art students of Carolina Panther, Thomas Davis. In addition to showing our Panthers Pride, Parkwood Middle School saw this as a great opportunity to give back to the community.
One of the greatest constructions created by man is the famous, "Great Wall of China". In Ms. Howie's art class, students explored the artwork evident within the structure and its connection to Chinese culture.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, "Intelligence plus character--that is the goal of true education. The complete education gives one not only power of concentration, but worthy objectives upon which to concentrate." [ Maroon Tiger (January-February 1947)] At Parkwood Middle School our AIG department has fully embraced that challenge. As a part of a unit on Holocaust literature, our students took a trip to the Levine Jewish Community Center in Charlotte to take part in The Butterfly Project. This is a worldwide effort to remember the 1.5 million children who died as a result of the Holocaust.
A Dickens of a Celebration!
As part of the 8th Grade and 7th Grade AIG Language Arts Curriculum, students at Parkwood Middle School study Charles Dickens's class story, "A Christmas Carol". Every year, the unit culminates in a Victorian Era Celebration, where students are immersed in the world that the characters of "A Christmas Carol" lived in.
A Musical for Every Buddy!
The movie "Elf", starring Will Ferrell has quickly become a holiday favorite since its release in 2003. Now, 12 years later, the Broadway version of this beloved movie has been adapted for school productions. Recently, the PWMS Theatre group brought it to the Parkwood High School's Auditorium.
When most of us picture a library, we think of dusty old books lining the shelves, librarians uttering, "shh" every time a sound is made, and oppressive quiet that almost makes it hard to concentrate. Well, most of us would be wrong! Gone are the libraries of old - replaced by buildings that allow us access to more than just books. As part of Mrs. Chapman's partnership with the Union County Public Library, all students learned from Ms. Beth Myles that the library has DVDs, magazines, audio books, ebooks, research databases, free wifi and so much more. Once students learned of all the resources available to them, many took advantage of the opportunity to get their own library card on Tuesday! They signed up for a temporary card, which expires in three months. Once they visit the library with their parents, they can complete the registration process and receive a card that is valid for one year.
Supported by Confucius Institute at Pfeiffer University (CIPU), the calligraphy teacher from CIPU provides the students Chinese calligraphy lessons once a week for a semester in coordination with the Chinese language lessons. The Chinese calligraphy course teaches the fundamental techniques and aesthetic value of 3,500 years Chinese calligraphy and its brief history.
It was an impressive sight in Mr. Marmara's 8th Grade Science classroom - over 60 6th, 7th and 8th grade students turned out for the Science Olympiad interest meeting. North Carolina Science Olympiad (NCSO) is a non-profit group that hosts competitions all over the state. These competitions are designed to challenge students in areas such as science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
On Wednesday, September 16th, ten students from Parkwood Middle School's Chorus participated in "Real Men Sing" at Wingate University.


Tiny houses have soared in popularity in recent years. These miniature homes — typically just a few hundred square feet in size — offer a simplified and low-cost alternative to more expensive forms of shelter.
Tiny home sales are popular among anyone trying to cut back on housing costs, including young workers just starting out and retirees hoping to trim expenses in their golden years.
"People have realized that they can't live the life they want while saddled with all the bills that come with a conventional house, including a 30-year mortgage," said Dan Louche, owner of DeLand, Fla.-based Tiny Home Builders.
Although tiny homes generally cost considerably less than traditional housing, financing a tiny house can be a challenge. In fact, securing a loan is usually an aspiring tiny-home owner's first obstacle to overcome.
"Oftentimes, tiny homes do not qualify for mortgages due to their mobility (and) small footprint, and because many banks won't finance mortgages for the low cost of some tiny homes," said Todd Nelson, business development officer of LightStream, an online lending division of SunTrust Bank that does a lot of tiny-home business.
Do not let the challenge of securing a loan discourage you from pursuing your tiny-living dream. The following five simple steps will guide you on how to finance a tiny home.
Tiny homes can be a big investment. No matter how much you condense your life into the new downsized living arrangement, there is still potential to trick out your place and pile up the expenses.
Nelson urges you to keep the scope of your project within a reasonable budget. In addition, know the location of where you plan to park the tiny home, and check the local zoning rules.
"Some communities have restrictions on location use, lot size and minimum/maximum home footprints," Nelson said.
Need a loan to finance the construction of your tiny home? You will have better luck getting the money if a professional builder constructs the home, Louche said.
"If someone buys a house from a builder, the financing companies have a higher level of trust that it was built correctly and will thus better retain its value," he said.
If you plan to build the home on your own, there is no way for the financial institution to know that you are not going to make fundamental mistakes in construction. Thus, banks and credit unions might find the risk too great to lend you the cash.
Unlike traditional home mortgages, tiny home mortgages can be tough to find. Many banks do not consider a tiny home to be a real "home." That is particularly true if the tiny home is portable.
What kind of fees does the lender charge?
Does the lender require appraisals or other paperwork to apply?
How long will it take to receive an approval and to get the funding?
Find the answers to these questions and you will be spared from nasty surprises.
Tiny homes built on trailers and certified to meet standards set by the Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) can be financed through an RV loan, Nelson said. He added that tiny house manufacturers build such homes as RVs to be easily mobile, and to make sure they qualify to be parked in RVIA-certified parks and campgrounds.
Some banks might offer unsecured loans to finance a tiny home. An unsecured loan does not use property as collateral.
"For borrowers with good credit, an unsecured personal loan can be an attractive option," Nelson said. LightStream provides unsecured, fixed-rate loans to people with good credit.
These unsecured loans might be considered riskier for lenders, which leads to the possibility of higher interest rates. But there are exceptions. For instance, Nelson said LightStream finances non-RVIA certified tiny houses with fixed interest rates as low as 3.99% APR for borrowers who agree to have payments automatically deducted from their bank account.
He also says RVIA-certified tiny homes are funded by LightStream as "RV loans," with fixed interest rates as low as 2.99% APR for customers who agree to automatic payment from their bank accounts.
You can explore unsecured loan options and terms by visiting most lenders' websites.
If you need a loan to make your tiny house dream a reality, make sure everything is in order before you fill out the application, no matter what type of loan you choose.
Check to make sure your credit score is accurate, as lenders look heavily at this, Nelson said. If there are any discrepancies, try to resolve them quickly. In addition to weighing an applicant's credit, LightStream looks to see if applicants have managed their finances responsibly over time and whether they have the income, assets or liquidity to repay their tiny house loan.
The worst-case scenario is to get partially through building your tiny home and not have the funds to see it to completion.
If you don't have enough savings to buy a tiny house — and family or friends cannot lend you the cash — you need to know how to finance your tiny home. The tips above can help get you into the tiny home of your dreams.
Here are the key ways you can minimize this fee on your home loan.

How Can We Make Literature Less Intimidating?
When I sat down to brainstorm this idea, I found answering the question hard, until I decided to reverse it. Thinking about how could we make literature more intimidating immediately brought to mind that to do so would mean having to keep doing what we're (general) doing, stick to the status quo rather than continue down the paths a few people and publishes have started to take. Which then answers the first question.
The 'problem' with the idea of less intimidating literature is that you have to look at specifics rather than the broad picture or it becomes controversial, for example, if 'literature' means classics and literary fiction, the argument would be that they ought not be 'dumbed down' in any way (and indeed to do so would mean current readers may not like them). But if applied broadly, then we can consider all the genres, which includes fantasy, science fiction, and crime, which often seem the most intriguing and most likely to be read by non-readers. With fantasy there's less you need to know, in terms of facts, going in because it's all to do with making things up.
A different point is the importance of letting people read what they want to read and come to their own conclusions. School English lessons, when part of the mandatory curriculum don't often help with this and if it puts people off that's a problem. It's important that someone is allowed to interpret a book through their own experience, no matter how much, or little, or relevant or not, it might seem to others.
I do think a lot of it comes down to support and accessibility – accessibility of conversation and a good welcome to it – more than the books themselves. If you feel included in the conversation and able to ask questions and make mistakes, then you're surely going to be more interested in the idea of picking up something that might be challenging.
How do you think literature could be made less intimidating, and do you have any stories of converting daunted non-readers?
I have trouble comprehending the idea of a non-reader!
I understand that literature courses must have certain assigned titles for class discussions, but I always liked the idea of a varied reading list from which one could make their own choices. Not everyone likes the same genre.
I'm rarely intimidated by a book, but belonging to a book club has certainly made me step outside my comfort zone and read (and enjoy) books I might never have picked up otherwise.
One thing I used to do in literature courses was to encourage students to read an assigned poem "in a circle," beginning again when they got to the end, until they found something they understood a little or had felt before. This works best with short lyric poems and has to be followed by class discussion, starting with the lines or words they found.
I definitely agree that one piece of the puzzle has to be letting people like what they like. Right now there's SUCH a hierarchy of what books are good and literary and what ones are, like, shameful guilty pleasures. And I think it makes it hard for people to even approach the higher-brow stuff, because they've been told that there are boundaries that delineate what "counts" or doesn't.
You make some good points here, Charlie. I think the way English literature is taught at school is very important. Personally, I always found it very restrictive, as if there was some single "correct" interpretation of each book that we had to find in order to get a good mark. Encouraging young readers to give their own interpretations and trust their own reactions is important, I think. To your point about feeling included in the conversation, I think more diversity is important too, both in the people writing the books and in those commissioning and editing them, as well as in the content. I mean all kinds of diversity—regional, class, race/ethnicity, age, etc.
Kelly: A choice for literature courses is a good one. I suppose the problem would be if not enough people chose the same, assuming the course includes lessons or tutor groups. A book club is a great way to help. I've only been to one, and only once, but it was very open and everyone could say what they think. It'd just be the issue of getting people interested in joining a hobby-sort group!
Jeanne: That sounds fab, especially with the point of understanding something or empathising, more variety there. The class discussion, too.
Jenny: There is, and even we readers go on about guilty pleasures to those who understand them! Yes, less 'counting' would be good – more prizes for genre fiction or, rather, more publicity of them, would help. The Man Booker, Women's Prize et al are great, but those are the ones most publicised and they're specific.
Andrew: I had a pretty good secondary school teacher in that we could ask 'how' people knew such and such about a book, and she'd admit we don't truly know, and also was quite casual at times (I remember her fondly but parents and the school weren't so happy!) so that helped, but beyond that, when following the text books and guidelines, it was quite like your own experience.
Diversity itself is important in widening the conversation, I agree. I'd love to see more authors like Kit de Waal and her books; I know there are people out there trying to broaden working class narratives, but it seems contained still. We need more diverse gatekeepers!

Artists balance risk, caution to make work during pandemic
Rick Hellman
KU News Service
rick_hellman@ku.edu
LAWRENCE – Who's an essential worker during a pandemic, when people are asked to stay home to stop the spread? Grocery clerks, sure. Truckers. EMTs. But what about artists?
Making art is Benjamin Rosenthal's raison d'être. The associate professor of visual art took some qualified risks and expended great effort during the pandemic year of 2020 to make some work. The result is an eight-minute video titled "the gleaners, and: ritual for signaled bodies" that he produced in collaboration with Eric Souther, assistant professor of video art at the New York State College of Ceramics (NYSCC), School of Art and Design at Alfred University.
It premieres virtually Feb. 19 at the fifth annual Performing Media Festival sponsored by the Ernestine M. Raclin School of the Arts at Indiana University South Bend.
"As an artist, it feels really important," Rosenthal said. "And while I absolutely believe in the need for and the veneration of those who are on the front lines of the pandemic, I think that there is a sort of collective disregard for the needs of culture, much of which is failing at this time because it requires the presence of an audience to exist. I find art essential to my existence. I am not whole or complete in any form unless I'm making art and developing work, and so to be able to do this in a responsible manner was particularly incredible."
Rosenthal, who creates original video works, said he was drawn to NYSCC Alfred University's Expanded Media lab, where Souther is one of the key faculty members who continues to draw upon historical experimental media practices and technologies while building new hybrid analog and digital systems to keep the conversation between artists, toolmaking and video as a creative medium.
Owing to COVID-19 safety protocols, Rosenthal drove nonstop both ways and combined a visit to family in New York City with a testing, quarantine and masking regimen before and during his two-week stay in Alfred. He was on sabbatical during the fall semester.
"Going into a place where there are other people working at the top of their game and making art is essential," Rosenthal said. "It's essential to our being that we have to make work. There's the urgency to reach out to others that I think a lot of us have been feeling in this pandemic. Eric and I are both so technologically engaged that people might think, 'Oh, why wouldn't you do something like this exclusively over Zoom?' But it would not have been possible."
Rosenthal said that by working side-by-side with Souther (if more than 6 feet apart and masked), he was able to create something truly collaborative with intensity, speed and a responsiveness not possible otherwise.
Rosenthal and Souther conceptualized the work in the first few days of the collaboration via conversations discussing the relationships among queerness, bodies, ritual and signal.
"The piece organically grew out of continued conversation and technological innovations we discovered along the way," Rosenthal said.
Rosenthal had produced a few 3D models before arrival that they utilized to start to construct performative systems around. Utilizing Souther's expertise in a program called Touch Designer, they developed systems to activate animations that allowed for real-time control of rotation, position and scale of the joints in the rigged models. Many of the videos they generated in the first few days became backdrops, additional videos to wrap onto the bodies and attached to a virtual "light" they could project onto the 3D landscapes.
"You're two people sort of making things together and responding and recording it live as you're playing it, versus rendering an animation out for an extended period of time," Rosenthal saod. "My usual process is much slower than his. But because of these new systems and because of the ability to work with Eric, it allowed both of us to do that rather quickly and responsively. We were able to make work that spoke to both of our interests in fragmenting media, fragmenting the body, rethinking that stability."
For his part, Souther said he felt an equal partner on the project, both conceptually and in its execution.
"You don't often find a collaborator with whom you can have a good, 50-50 split on both concept and technology," Souther said.
Both artists said they were pleased with the end product and have entered it into a number of film and media festivals around the world. There will be an outdoor screening April 23 in Kansas City, Missouri, as part of the exhibition "In My Own Skin," curated by Kimi Kitada of the Charlotte Street Foundation. And Rosenthal said he and Souther have already begun planning a further, multichannel permutation of what is now termed a single-channel, or single-screen, video.
"It can exist in a lot of different formats," Rosenthal said. "It can mutate as a project."

how do your veins work?
» Watch Next Video by David Ellertson Sr., MD - What should I do if I have spider veins on my face?
How do your veins work? There are two sets of veins in our lower extremities. One is the superficial set called the saphenous vein and its derivative. The second is the deep vein, which lies underneath the musculature of the leg called the femoral vein and its derivatives. The function of veins is merely to return blood to the heart, and it does so through the pumping action of your calf muscle. When you are walking the calf muscle contracts and it squeezes the veins in your calves and forces the blood through the veins to your heart. When you are not walking the blood is trapped in between what we call normal functioning one-way valves. There are multiple valves, both the competent renal and the deep renal vein. It is the abnormal valve function that leads to varicose veins.


Not only do they look beautiful and make great decor, plants in your home or office can really make a big positive difference to our every day lives. The benefits, both physical and psychological are evident in numerous scientific studies.
So there you have it. The more green the better.


Is the fight against domestic violence in crisis?

Thanks for your kind words, and for sharing the message.
Thank you Triple S. I appreciate you allowing me to Press it.


Bandai Namco has released some background information on two characters from its upcoming Dark Souls clone, Code Vein, from the developers of God Eater. The information comes from the latest issue of Famitsu magazine and focuses on two of the side characters in the game.
The first character, who also featured prominently in the game trailers and footage, is the female Revenant, Mia Karnstein, who accompanies players through the land of Vein. Mia's brother is extremely important to her and to protect him, she won't even hesitate to fight other Revenants. As shown in the gameplay footage of Code Vein, Mia is a long-range character and uses ranged weaponry equipped with Bayonets for up-close attacks. Her special power, or Blood Veil as it's known in the game, is Stinger which is sort of like a long tail that can attack enemies.
The second character in the magazine is Yakumo Shinonome, a former mercenary with a strong sense of duty and a soft heart. In Code Vein, he fights using a giant sword and his Blood Veil is known as Hounds, which turns the hem of his jacket into the head of a wolf which devastates nearby enemies.
Code Vein is currently set for an early 2018 release. Despite being a lot similar to Dark Souls games, the game doesn't have any development input from From Software. The game mixes Dark Souls style dark and somber environments and gameplay with God Eater-esque anime character design making something of a unique game.
While the trailers of the game might have hinted at a generic character, the game will offer players the opportunity of customizing their character to their own liking so no two characters will be the same. Similarly, players can also alter their gameplay style as they won't be tied down to just one skill tree and unlock others as they progress through the game.

Charlie Cox Addresses That Spider-Man: No Way Home Trailer Rumor
Walter McBride/Getty Images
By Dany Roth/Sept. 1, 2021 3:44 pm EST
There may be "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings" and "Eternals" coming out in the near future, but that hasn't stopped fans of a certain Queens-based webslinger from speculating about what details still remain hidden in the upcoming December 17 release of "Spider-Man: No Way Home." Even before the teaser trailer was unleashed to the world, people were hypothesizing about whether the film would involve the multiverse, or if previous Spider-Men Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield would appear, to say nothing of questions about Sony-only characters like Venom (Tom Hardy).
Many questions remain, and since the "Spider-Man: No Way Home" was trailer released to the world, these inquiries have only gotten bigger and more complex — for instance, is Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) really Mephisto? Also, just how much will we see of Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin? That's just a sample. And then, to top it all off, there's a theory that got launched in the pre-trailer release days, which has only gotten louder in the past few weeks: Namely, will Daredevil aka Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) make the leap from Netflix to the movies?
Rumors have been circulating for some time now about the possibility of Matt Murdock being the defense attorney for Peter Parker, now that his identity as Spider-Man is exposed. Those rumors got much louder when fans became convinced they saw Cox (or a part of him at least) in the teaser trailer.
And now, the real Cox himself has entered the conversation.
Charlie Cox, put your arms up if you're in No Way Home
In the trailer for "Spider-Man: No Way Home" there is a sequence where Peter Parker (Tom Holland) is in a police station looking over a file. Based on the prior film, "Far From Home," we know that J. Jonah Jameson (J.K. Simmons) outed Peter's identity, and that at least some people think Peter killed Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal) using Stark Tech drones. One would assume Peter Parker needs expert counsel to deal with these accusations. And for a brief moment in that aforementioned police station scene we see the arms of a man in a dress shirt — two arms that people are convinced belongs to Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock.
However, in an interview with ComicBook.com, Cox seemed to deflect this accusation. "I can promise you those are not my forearms," Cox said.
The big question, now, is whether fans can truly take Cox's statement as fact. On the one hand, the arms in the trailer are hairy, and Charlie Cox also has hairy arms. The clothing style does match Murdock's, as well. On the other hand, a lot of people in the world have hairy arms, or wear similar dress shirts. All that aside, just because that arm does not belong to Charlie Cox (or so he says) does not mean that he's not in "Spider-Man: No Way Home." There will likely be a lot of arms in this movie — any one of them could belong to Daredevil (or not).
"Spider-Man: No Way Home" arrives in theaters on December 17.
