Roomier seats and more adequate legroom are among the top airline fixes travelers often hope for, but at least one wish is in the process of being fulfilled. One airline is experimenting with larger overhead carry-on bins.
Last week in Seattle, Alaska Airlines took delivery of the first Boeing 737 outfitted with new "Space Bins," which increase storage room by almost 50 percent. The redesigned bins can each hold six standard-size carry-on bags, which Boeing says is two more than the current pivot bins installed on some Next-Generation 737s.
In making this fix, Alaska Air appears to tackle a problem frequently encountered by travelers — having to check (and pay extra for) a bag that airlines consider too large.
"There's a lot of anxiety for passengers these days about whether or not they're going to get their bags on the plane," said Sangita Woerner, Alaska Airlines vice president of marketing. "With these bins, the pain point and that stress is dramatically lowered because they know they'll get their bags on."
Alaska is installing Space Bins on all its 737-900ERs and 737 MAX aircraft currently on order. By 2017, 69 airplanes, or 46 percent of the carrier's passenger fleet, will be outfitted with Space Bins. Delta and United Air are among the other airlines planning to install Space Bins on some planes, according to Boeing.
On Next-Generation 737s and 737 MAXs with interiors configured for Alaska, Space Bins will provide room for a total of 57 more bags. Boeing estimates other airlines that purchase the option may be able to fit up to an additional 66 bags.
That extra room may reduce stress for passengers hoping to find space in the overhead bins for their carry-on bags, and help smooth out the boarding process for everyone, said Brent Walton, manager of 737 interiors' new features for Boeing commercial airplanes.
"When passengers board a plane and have to spend time trying to find a place to stow their bags, it slows down the process," he said. "If there's more space for bags everyone, including those with no carry-on bags, can board and get seated quicker."
It also means fewer bags that have to be gate-checked — helping to speed up departures and reducing headaches for airlines overall.
The new, larger Space Bins hang about two inches shorter than current bins. However, Walton said that in tests passengers didn't seem to mind — or notice — losing that overhead space. He said those two inches make it is easier for travelers to lift their bags into the bins.
The bins are also easier for passengers and flight attendants to close, he added.
Larger overhead bins are a welcome amenity for many airline passengers. However, some say the problem isn't that travelers need more luggage room, but less.
The creative team at Seattle-based design consultancy, Teague, envisions a future when airplanes will have much smaller storage bins in the cabin. As part of a future airline concept they call Poppi, the Boeing design partner would banish all luggage from the cabin and offer only "fedora bins," leaving room only for hats, computer bags and jackets.
That idea is part of what the firm insists are solutions that make storage of large items in overhead bins unnecessary.
"Technologies, such as RFID tags, that offer passengers a high level of assurance of where their bags are, already exist," said Devin Liddell, Teague's principal brand strategist.
Increased bag tracking and delivery options would mean that passengers wouldn't need to or even want to take their carry-on bags on board, said Liddell. That would mean everything from the security checkpoint experience to the boarding process could be dramatically altered.
"The way we're handling bags now is broken," said Liddell. "It's just not sustainable. Something is going to have to change."

est le nom donné à l'intégrale d'Iron Maiden sortie le  décembre 1998. Elle regroupe à ce moment-là l'intégralité des albums studio et live du groupe, soit 12 albums jusqu'au Live at Donington, en excluant X Factor et Virtual XI (les deux albums avec Blaze Bayley au chant).

Contenu
Tous les albums sont remasterisés et contiennent pour certains des titres inédits et pour tous une piste multimedia (Enhanced CD).

Les pochettes ont été retravaillées pour l'occasion : par exemple, le ciel de The Number of the Beast est désormais gris et non bleu (ce qui était originellement une erreur d'impression). La pochette du Live at Donington a été totalement changée, celle du premier album et No Prayer for the Dying. Au minimum, la colorimétrie a été améliorée.

Si l'on dispose les CD côte à côte sur une étagère, la somme des tranches forme le dessin de la tête d'Eddie du premier album.

Un certificat d'authenticité (avec le numéro indiquant le tirage limité) était inclus.

Elle contient un disque bonus exclusif In Profile qui contient des interviews du groupe et des extraits musicaux.

L'originalité de ce coffret réside dans le fait que les disques sont logés dans un boitier plastique ayant la forme de la tête d'Eddie, la mascotte du groupe. Des LED rouges peuvent être placées dans la boîte derrière chaque œil. Chaque LED dispose d'une pile amovible.

Tous ces CD (sauf In Profile) sont sortis séparément dans le commerce.

Cette intégrale en édition limitée et numérotée est devenue très rare.

Thought I'd give this a spin this Sunday morning.
There's a potential bug in this code Can someone spot it?
Is it when the currentFreq becomes zero twice. The doubleEntry if condition will not be triggered because of the falsey-ness of zero? Causing the execution to continue and reporting an incorrect first occurrence of a repeated frequency?
My solution in Ruby is eerily similar, down to the use of Set to save me from Array O(n) hell.
In my quest to use a functional style and still remain fast, I used array.some() to exit the loop early instead of throwing in the middle of an array.forEach. Looking back though, I might have taken this idea a bit too far because the code isn't any safer or easier to reason about than a loop.
My Ruby is rusty but should the frequencies Set initially contain the 0 value?
I can relate. My first implementation was using reduce but with my inputs (not sure if everyone has different inputs) I had to loop more than once to get the value I needed.
So I just cheated a bit.
Maybe? As it's the first seen frequency? (0 +/- first value)? I didn't need it but maybe someone else's input it would make a difference.
I wrote my solution in go and hit the problem of not having 0 as the initial frequency in the set when i had to loop through the set again it failed to count the next 0 frequency encountered in the test set.
I was using a for loop and reset the index to 0 instead of -1.


Description MCAT Full-Length MS Protein Standard (NP_775738), Labeled with [U- 13C6, 15N4]-L-Arginine and [U- 13C6, 15N2]-L-Lysine, was produced in human 293 cells (HEK293) with fully chemically defined cell culture medium to obtain incorporation efficiency at Creative-Proteomics. The protein encoded by this gene is found exclusively in the mitochondrion, where it catalyzes the transfer of a malonyl group from malonyl-CoA to the mitochondrial acyl carrier protein. The encoded protein may be part of a fatty acid synthase complex that is more like the type II prokaryotic and plastid complexes rather than the type I human cytosolic complex. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Q: Why delete pointer to stack is error? I have read topic Calling delete on variable allocated on the stack
And i know when use operator delete in stack, see error. But i want to know more and deep information . Why error ?

A: Stack created objects are automatic whereas non-stack created objects (using the keyword new) are dynamic and need to be reclaimed using the keyword delete.
Objects on the stack are reclaimed by the system automatically using a different mechanism to objects allocated dynamically using keyword new.
So calling keyword delete with an object address that was not allocated dynamically using the keyword new is bound to cause trouble.

A: Buried (not very deep) in the C++ runtime libraries is a data structure known as the heap.  The heap's job (conceptually, anyway) is to start with a giant array of bytes, and dole out chunks of that array to your program when your program asks for them.  That way you don't have to implement any chunk-management code yourself (which is good, because handling it both correctly and efficiently in all cases is a non-trivial coding task).
Whenever your program calls the new operator, a call into the heap's code slices off a portion of that array (again, conceptually speaking) and hands it to your program to use.  Conversely, when you later call the delete operator, that sub-array of bytes is given back to the heap, where the heap's code can merge it back together with its neighboring sections of big array (if one or both of the adjacent sections are also available) or at least keep a record of its availability on-hand so that it can be re-used later, via a subsequent call to new.
Objects on the stack, however, are not located inside the heap's giant array; rather they are located on the stack.  So when you call delete on a stack object, your are handing the heap a piece of memory that was never part of its resources-pool to begin with.  The C++ language designers could have required that every heap implementation must check for this condition and do something predictable in response (for example just ignoring the unknown pointer, or printing an error message, or triggering an assertion failure and terminating the program), but doing a check like that for every delete could be inefficient, and the C++ language prioritizes keeping things as efficient as possible at run-time.  Therefore, passing a pointer to delete that was not previously returned by new invokes undefined behavior, which means that the designer of the C++ runtime library does not have to care what his heap code will do in that situation, because that situation should never happen in the first place -- it will only happen if you made a programming error.  So, don't make that error, because it will cause your program to behave in ways you did not intend it to.

A: To understand it correctly you should first understand what stack is and what heap mean. Go through this to understand how process memory is aligned.
When you call a function, it receives contiguous memory chunk from the virtual momory of the process. which it uses to receive arguments, define local variables and store return address etc. This memory is freed once the function completes its execution and returns. This is called stack.
Where as the heap allocation is done at runtime. and hence it is not guaranteed to be contiguous. new function call finds suitable memory chunk for you from the free pool and delete returns it back to the free memory pool.
As stack and heap are physically different entities, operations defined on heap are not supposed to be executed on stack as this will cause undefined behavior at runtime as explained by Jeremy Friesner. As a thumb rule, it is better to report error as early as possible, which is what compiler does when it finds delete called upon object define on stack.

Canada's Arctic claims continue to be a prominent aspect of Prime Minister Stephen Harper's policy agenda. Recent announcements, further technological investment, and emphasis on Arctic affairs in the government's Throne Speech all speak to the fact that, since taking office, the Arctic has been one of the few policy areas the Harper government has not deviated from.
What have become more interesting than the Prime Minister's Arctic strategy itself are the various reactions to it from Arctic experts, particularly academics. It is unsurprising that Opposition MP's would criticize the government for either not being strong enough on Canada's northern claims, or overemphasizing minor aspects of the high North, but increasingly, some Arctic experts have begun taking exception to the approach of the Canadian government.
Much of the criticism levelled at Harper from certain Arctic experts is derived from the belief that the government is misrepresenting the realities of the North. Rhetoric, hyperbole and myth have all been associated with some of the aspects Harper points to when justifying Canada's powerful Arctic stance. While the Canadian government has been effective in pulling at Canadians' heart strings by associating the Arctic with the Canadian identity, there are certainly problems with the way the Arctic is presented. Even so, the politics of the Arctic are truly becoming more apparent and this is what is presenting the largest problem of all.
There is no singular understanding of "sovereignty". In fact, the notion of national sovereignty is among the most contested in the study and practice of politics and international relations today, so it is no surprise that when Harper invokes such a powerful concept, there is no consensus on exactly what it means for the country. Disagreements over the rights, responsibilities and legal parameters of sovereign states pervade international politics on a daily basis, and have long impacted key decisions of individual states and international institutions like the UN. As the study and political landscape of the Arctic move forward, so will the discussion about the nature, and limits, of sovereignty.
The Arctic is important for more than one reason. Harper's insistence on Arctic sovereignty for the purposes of Canadian national security is only one facet of a much larger, and incredibly complex, issue. Canada's Arctic interests include national identity, human development, environmental issues, resource and energy issues, transportation issues, security calculations, international balance of power, and more. It is unfair, and arguably unwise, to reduce the Arctic to a select few themes in order to sell its importance to Canadians. Most everyone agrees that the Arctic should play a pivotal role in Canadian policymaking, but not at the expense of reality or for the purposes of political gain.
Like every other facet of human life, the Arctic has been, and will continue to be, politicized. Chances are that individuals, including Arctic experts, who are not supportive of Harper and the Conservatives more generally, will not endorse the government's Arctic strategy. Consensus on Arctic policy is highly unlikely across the spectrum of the many experts involved in Arctic research that spans many different fields of study, including the natural sciences, to ecology, to anthropology, to history, to political science, etc. As such, claims of neutrality and objectivity when evaluating the government's approach to the Arctic should be taken with a grain of salt.
The increasing complexities of the Arctic region require sophisticated and diplomatic policy options. On one hand, it is bizarre to think there would ever be unanimity among Arctic observers on how the government is pursuing its strategy. On the other, the government needs to do a better job of listening to experts from across the political spectrum so as to avoid misrepresentations of the true situation in the Arctic. If the region is as important as Harper is claiming, the best policy will also be the best researched policy.

Chrome Car Wraps - Colored Chrome Vinyl Is Here!
We've all seen over the last year the rising trend of chrome and even colored chrome car wraps. These wraps are truly something unique that demands attention from everyone. In the past the only way to produce a colored chrome vinyl (that wasn't a makeshift overseas product) was to purchase a roll of Avery Conform chrome or Hexis chrome and then laminate it with a transparent colored film such as Hexis C4000. This process is costly and time consuming also resulting in warranty of the products being voided from the process. With this being said, Avery and Hexis are coming to the rescue to produce out of the box colored chrome car wrap films!
Over the last few weeks Avery Dennison is already beginning to release their product line unveiling blue and gold chrome. Blue has been a very anticipated color and the gold film will be for the select consumer who believes has the ability to pull off such a look. The series isn't done here, red and yellow chrome will also be coming out shortly. As of right now the films may be hard to find from your local distributor and may require you to do some searching for this elusive product. How much does this cost? Whilst eliminating the lamination process, this product weighs in at around $2,300-$2,600 depending on your distributor. This is material cost alone and let's not forget that the installation process is still very tedious and the overall cost for a chrome wrap can still be 3x the cost of a standard matte or gloss wrap.
Upon speaking with my local Hexis distrutor I was noticed that a colored chrome series is due to be released in September 2013. The series is due to include blue, red, yellow, black, gold, and purple. They will also be re-releasing a better product line of the former C4000 series which will also be a cast vinyl as opposed to it's current calendered state. This will also provide more options in creating chrome colors using the old method of creating colored chrome. A price for the Hexis colored chrome is still unknown but I would assume a price around $3,000 would not be far off.
In celebration of the release of these new colors we will be giving a discounted price all summer long for colored chrome car wrap installations. Take advantage of this special and make your summer a memorable one with one of the first vehicles wrapped in these colors!

Peter Sargent was one of the founding partners of sports and leisure architectural practice Sargent & Potiriadis (S&P), along with business partner Mark Potiriadis. The pair were among a small group of creative thinkers who transformed leisure architecture from the late 1970s onwards, with the creation of innovative sports facilities, leisure pools, health and fitness facilities and mixed-use schemes. The pair began their careers at Leeds-based Gillinson Barnett, a practice which spawned not only Sargent & Potiriadis, but also a significant number of other leisure specialists, including Charles Smith, Stuart Miller, Clifford Barnett Development, Bulldog Design and Graham & Lambert. They founded S&P in 1979.
Swimming pools, then purely competitive facilities, were reimagined by the practice as places to play. Projects undertaken in these years included the Gorton Tub Leisure Pool in Manchester, England; the Ryan Centre in Stranraer, Scotland; the Aqua Dome in Tralee, Ireland; a number of indoor water parks for Butlins and the athletics facilities of the University of Cambridge.
As with many in the profession, S&P was hit hard by the recession of the 1990s and ceased trading in 1991, to be reborn as S&P Ltd a few years later. The practice has worked on a wide range of commercial and public sector leisure and sports facilities since, including the London 2012 Olympic aquatic centre.
Sargent retired from architecture in 1998 to his Florida home, where he dedicated his time, passion, skill and creativity to writing, drawing, art and sculpture. Peter Sargent died at his home in Florida in 2017. Potiriadis returned to Greece to work as part of the team delivering the Athens Olympics and was also involved in a number of commercial real estate and golf developments, such as Kilada Hills in Greece. Those who knew him will remember a warm, lively man who challenged and inspired those he met. Mark Potiriadis died in Athens in 2007.
Throughout the 1980s and 90s, Sargent served on the editorial board of Leisure Media's 'Leisure Management' magazine, and contributed a regular column, titled Peter Sargent's Notebook 'Jottings from a Leisure Architect.' His thoughts on the sector, and the crucial importance of great leisure design, was and remains an inspiration.
Leisure Media CEO Liz Terry said: "Peter Sargent and Mark Potiriadis committed their careers to leisure architecture at a time when it received no recognition and had little status. Their passion, commitment, and belief that leisure was a valid and important part of life laid the groundwork for the industry as we know it today.

Sabine Pass was a key entry point into the river system that flowed through East Texas and western Louisiana. The defense of the area became a prime focus of Texas Confederate activity to protect blockade running vessels carrying goods and supplies in and out of the area. A fort built near the city of Sabine Pass became the bulkhead of the Confederate defense of the area. At this location, Capt. Dick Dowling and the men of the Davis Guard successfully defeated a much larger Union invasion force in the 1863 Battle of Sabine Pass. Learn more in the following videos.

Sabine Pass After the Civil War
The City of Sabine Pass and the surrounding area became a shipping hub for Texas agricultural products and goods early in its history. Its importance increased in the early 20th century with the discovery and rise in oil production upriver from the site. The importance of Sabine Pass to the Gulf Coast economy led to its military protection in the Spanish American War, World War I, and World War II. Learn more in the following videos.

BendPak / Ranger offers comprehensive training courses to help you and your techs get the most of the equipment you purchase from any authorized BendPak dealer. See our current training offerings below.
When it comes to lifting vehicles on a two-post lift, knowing the exact center of gravity is crucial. Luckily, manufacturers design specific lifting points (same as the jacking points) and mark them on the underside of most vehicles. Whether your vehicles feature unibody/pinch rails or frame points, it's extremely dangerous to "guess" where those points are and risk vehicle damage and/or car lift failure. This balancing guide serves as a calculation tool that explains how manufacturers determine vehicle lift points. Mechanics should have an understanding of these physics principles before raising and getting underneath vehicles.
Wheel alignment services are offered in most auto shops, but the equipment itself is rather sophisticated. It takes about a day of practice for new techs to get familiar with the software and equipment, so Ranger offers training services for you and your techs. Our wheel alignment systems are some of the easiest to use in the industry, and our latest software updates and equipment upgrades are ensuring better performance and faster turnaround. This training information page covers the basics of what you and your team will learn in a one-day session.
We highly recommend you take advantage of Ranger's training. At the end of that day, your mechanics will have aligned vehicles and learned the ins and outs of the software, including how to perform basic troubleshooting and software updates.


We will work with you on establishing CLE credit for you where ever you desire. So far, California, Oklahoma, Georgia, Louisiana, Nevada, Utah, North Carolina, and Washington have approved the clinic for up to 13 hours of CLE credit. Many other jurisdictions have approved the Clinic for a like number of hours of CLE credit on an individual basis.
Roger J. Dodd knows of no jurisdiction that has declined awarding CLE credit for any CLE offering that he has provided in 3 decades of CLE training. We will make all efforts to assist in you obtaining that CLE credit in association with the clinic.


TEL AVIV, Israel & NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 1, 2019--Perion Network Ltd.

Captain Growth is a Ukrainian-based start-up that has developed a proprietary AI platform to better connect and deliver relevant campaign messages through the entire ad journey.
Captain Growth was launched in 2017 with the vision of replacing current AI systems – 'black boxes' which offer virtually no user control functionality, no transparency, and no ability to find and scale the most valuable ad units – with a next generation system.

The integration of Captain Growth's AI capabilities into Undertone will enable an even more refined level of cross-channel synchronization and intelligence, as campaigns put through Undertone will be optimized based on precision placement driven by AI-driven calculations. The platform's "Value Unlock" will deliver a new level of pre-campaign planning and real-time cross-channel recommendations while campaigns are running.
Total consideration is up to $3.75 million, partially paid in cash at closing while the remaining consideration is subject to the achievement of certain milestones and retention over the next 2 years. The acquisition is not expected to have a significant impact on Perion's financial results.

WSUS is running in your infrastructure for many years, and is doing a pretty good job at patching your clients and your servers, but now has come to a point where you need to migrate it to a new box. This usually happens when the OS is at the end of life support (EOL) or the hardware has reached the warranty limit. Another reason why migrate and not start with a new installation is so you don't have to download from Microsoft the required updates and approve them all over again. I don't know about you, but approving hundred of updates is not something I will do for a second time. In either case, the service needs to be migrated with minimal downtime and not to much headache.
To simulate this, I installed one WSUS service on a 2003 server, and this one is the WSUS that is patching the infrastructure right from the beginning. I named it WSUS-OLD for the sake of the example and for you to better follow the migration procedure. If your WSUS is not running on a 2003 server, no problem, this works with every OS version you might have. The second WSUS server will run on a 2012 R2 server and this will replace the old WSUS. I'm going to name the new server WSUS-NEW, again, for the sake of the example. Both of them are installed with a local database, but in case yours are configured with a remote SQL, don't worry, it works either way the same. You can have your old WSUS with a local database and the new WSUS with a remote SQL server or vice versa.
Now, on the new server go ahead and install WSUS and when you get to the configuration wizard set it as a downstream replica server; point it to your working WSUS.
Start connecting to save and download upstream server information.
At the end of the configuration wizard choose to begin the initial synchronization then click Finish. Be patient, it will take a while.
Once the synchronization is done your two WSUS servers should look almost the same.They should have the same computer groups, approved updates, downloaded updates, etc.
One thing they are not synchronizing are the configuration options, and unfortunately these configurations will need to be done manually. Don't worry, it's a two minute job, but before you can do that the new WSUS server needs to be set in an autonomous mode. Go to Options > Update Source and Proxy server and un-check the box This server is a replica of the upstream server then click the radio button Synchronize from Microsoft Update.
Now you can go ahead and match the rest of the options with the old WSUS server, like Products and Classifications, Update Files and Languages, computers assignment, E-Mail Notifications.
Once the options between the two servers match, the last step is to modify your group policy in order to point your clients to the new WSUS server. Open your GPO or GPOs and change the server name from the Specify intranet Microsoft update service location policy.
After a few hours, clients should appear in the WSUS console at the exact same patch level they were on the old WSUS server. If you want to force the process on one or two of the clients just to see if it actually works do a gpupdate /force to get the new policy then type wuauclt /detectnow and wuauclt /reportnow to force checking for updates and to report to WSUS. Wait a few days, and if everything is working fine you can go ahead and decommission the old box. And that's it !
Migrating WSUS to a new server is not a difficult process and it can be done with minimal downtime. The hard part is to wait for all the clients to get the new policy and register themselves with the new WSUS server. Everything after that is the same as it was before, approve/decline updates and patch the systems in your environment.
thanks a lot bro, this worked like a charm!
Had to 'dismiss' a very bitchy WSUS (2016 Datacenter) serving ~100 clients and 20 servers.
Thank you. I'm glad I could help out.
Can you please help me if the below scenario will work or not?
Will this work without any issues so that i don't need to make any changes in my GPO to point to new WSUS server?
In theory it will work, but in practice is something else. There is always something that can go wrong. Before doing this make sure you have backup, then go ahead and do it. Let me know how it works.
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException — Maximum stored procedure, function, trigger, or view nesting level exceeded (limit 32).
Not the error in particular, but check and see so the server does not synchronize during your operation. If it does, stop the synchronization.
Just tried this method and now the PCs don't seem to be able to connect to WSUS anymore. If I manually try checking for updates I get an error "Windows could not search for new updates. Code 80244019", tried this on just two computers so far but a bit worrying. The only difference from your instructions was that I switched off the old server (2008) and changed the IP address of new server (2012) to match the same as the old so I didn't have to change the GPOs. Could this be the problem?
Yes, the GPO is the problem. It does not matter if the new WSUS server has a different IP address or name. All that matters is to configure the GPO to point the clients to the new WSUS server.
Thank you bro. You save my life.
I migrated our windows 2003 wsus server to windows 2012r2 wsus. It's a fresh install and wsus 2012 was installed and configured as a downstream replica server with local WID database. I did not copy the DB from 2003 to 2012. The sync was successful with upstream server. I changed our GPO to point to the new wsus 2012 server and rebooted the server. New setting is being applied via GPO. I did a detectnow and see a buch of errors in log.
I'm wondering do i need to to change the wsus2012 server identity as per the link below for clients to check in?
Never heard of this. Usually all you have to do is change the URL in the GPO where clients connect and you are good to go. What errors are you seeing in the log?
Did you find a resolution for this?
I'm looking at your instructions and it is pretty simple to carry out. Can i safely say the "Migrate WSUS Update Binaries from the Source Server to the Destination Server Using Windows Server Migration Tools"(https://technet.microsoft.com/library/ee822836(ws.10).aspx) has been done using your method?
I'm actually planning to migrate 2003 R2 to 2012 R2 thus trying to figure out all necessary actions.
I never tried using the tool, but if you do, I will appreciate if you post the results here so others can benefit form this.
What a clever way to migrate!
Options > Update Source and Proxy server and un-check the box This server is a replica of the upstream server then click the radio button Synchronize from Microsoft Update.
The Radio button to Switch to Synchronize from Microsoft Update is greyed out and can't be set!
Settings can't be changed usually when WSUS is synchronizing. Make sure there is no running job and try again.


They both met face-to-face before. Sunday's phone conversation will be their first post-inauguration, Netanyahu eager to work with America's new president.
Iran's nuclear program doesn't now nor did it earlier have a military component. The Iranian "problem" Trump and others hype is its sovereign independence. Its government poses no threat to Israel, the region or other nations elsewhere.
Reportedly America's new president and Netanyahu will discuss Palestine, Syria, Iran and perhaps other issues. Israel rejects Palestinian statehood. It wants regime change in Iran and Syria.
Netanyahu calls rescinding the Iran nuclear deal one of his top priorities – unlikely to be achieved with Britain, France, Germany, Russia and China strongly supporting it, no matter which way Trump goes.
Saturday on his Facebook page, Netanyahu said he and Trump will discuss "ways to oppose the threat of the Iranian regime, which calls for the destruction of Israel" – a bald-faced lie.
Separately, hardline Israeli education minister Naftali Bennett called the next few weeks "a unique window of opportunity" for Netanyahu to tell Trump what he wants from Washington.
He wants annexation of so-called Area C, around 60% of West Bank territory Israel controls – a prescription for possible explosive violence if undertaken.
Bennett, Netanyahu and many others are part of Israel's lunatic fringe. Defying international law, they claim East Jerusalem and the West Bank aren't occupied, land-grabbing what belongs to Palestinians isn't theft, and historic Palestine belongs to Israel.
If Trump accepts this ideological extremism, a potential incendiary environment will be created – especially if he defies international law by moving America's embassy to Jerusalem – an international city under a UN protectorate.
After years of endless US imperial wars, the region is hugely unstable already. Will Trump step back from the brink or risk turning bad to worse by wrongheaded US policy toward Israel/Palestine?

Hello, again. I found out that you have to re-compile your modding tools in RELEASE MODE in order to make it work for all the people who don't have an installation of a Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 programming program on their computer.
I really hope you can do this, for the War Of The Ring community!

Maramures is more than a place, is a state of mind.
Maramures is one of Europe´s most important eco-destinations, a well kept secret, known only to the initiated. Over time, the place has been visited by photographers such as Henri Cartier-Bresson or Paolo Pellegrin, writers (William Blacker, who wrote "Along the enchanted way: A Romanian Story"), Prince Charles and many more. Here, in Northern Transylvania is the last bastion of those upholding the ancient European traditions and the last place with authentic native organic farming. A focal point of an authentic peasant culture under pressure from the internet, globalization and EU rules, showing us how Europe was 50 years ago, before the industrialization of agriculture.
In Maramures those searching for the essence of "slow living" and "back to nature" can find a lifestyle where many inhabitants still practice self-sufficient farming! Large areas from the Land of Maramures, never felt pesticide and pest treatments, because modern farming has simply not reached the hills. The vegetables, fruits, meat and milk produced there have a taste from your childhood, while the air and water are as pure as champagne.
Until 30-40 years ago, when new building materials appeared, almost all houses in the region were of wood, like most of the tools and objects in daily use, which led to Maramures being known as "The Land of Wood". Notwithstanding the modernization, the lack of enforced regulations and the demolitions, there are still thousands of wooden houses, built from horizontal beams of oak and pine, of small dimensions, with high pitched roofs, some keeping the specific porch with sculpted columns, and a roof of pine (covered by fir wood shingles (more and more expensive and requiring replacement every 25 years). You can also see hundreds of wooden gates, sculpted (carved) with ornaments inspired by magic (the hand, the snake or human silhouettes), totems (horns or wolf fangs canine teeth), and by cosmic, pre-christian influences (the sun and moon), barns, hay barracks and even shadoofs.
The wooden heritage also include forty old churches, eight of which are protected by UNESCO. These are built in the amazing "Maramures Gothic" style and contain furniture and old icons on wood or glass, covered by naive frescoes. In some narthexes can be viewed frightening scenes from the Last Judgement, describing the punishments for sinners, scenes whose efficiency was proven time and again. Thus, thanks to the images of torture for those guilty of adultery and drunkenness, the first divorces in some villages took place only thirty or forty years ago!
Without any exaggeration, Maramures can be considered a capital of traditional crafts, in wood and textile, iron or leather, clay or straw…
Maramures preserves one of the richest biodiversity in Europe, with 11000 thousands of plant, animal and insect species, a heaven of wild flowers (orchids, edelweiss, etc.), butterflies and birds, with virgin forests hosting large carnivores and many endemic species. In the region there are also hundreds of mineral springs (most of which are not used) and even salt lakes.
Maramures is a perfect destination for photographers or adventurers, students or children, for backpackers or families. It's also a romantic place for lovers, as well as for those who want to relive their childhood. To each, the magic land of Maramures has something to offer…


The police chief for eastern Nangarhar province was killed in an IED blast in the Hesarak district of the province on Sunday afternoon, officials said.
Brig. Gen. Zarawar Khan Zahid was killed and one of his bodyguards was injured in the landmine explosion on Sunday afternoon around 5:00pm while was inspecting police check posts in insecure Hesarak district, governor's spokesman, Attaullah Khogyani said in a statement.

The non-profit, activistcash.com states that it thinks organizations like EWG are just after people's money - they could be correct. So we have the non-profit organization, activistcash, funded by yet another non-profit organization, called The Center for Consumer Freedom. And who anonymously funds this second non-profit, The Center for Consumer Freedom? According to their own web site, "The Center for Consumer Freedom is funded by restaurants, food companies and thousands of individual consumers." I do believe in the right to make your own choice, but only with FULL DISCLOSURE about ALL possible side-effects - a PERSONAL OPINION (and it is very possible that activistcash.com agrees with me on this). But they, activistcash.org, seem to be against organizations that are actually trying to protect consumers from supposedly bad products, the opinion of website, gifthub. I don't yet have an opinion about activistcash.com. I also have read hundreds of articles substantiating the negative effects of lots of sunscreen ingredients described by EWG.org. And while they may be absolutely NO connection, PABA was once thought to be a beneficial sunscreen ingredient. I probably did not check on all of the ingredients that EWG calls dangerous to our health, only the ingredients that I found in products I was considering to purchase. I am not a scientist nor a laboratory researcher. I am a computer and electronic engineer who loves knowledge, helping people and safaris. I think I'll continue to read articles from activistcash.com, just to get all views.
Sunglasses should screen out 75% to 90% of viable light. Sunglasses should be dark, but light enough that you can see your eyes in a mirror. Look for a uniform tint, although Double Gradient Tinting (extra tinting at both the TOP and the BOTTOM, can help reduce glare). Sunglasses are marked with a filter category from 0-4, where 4 is the darkest lens. Being dark does NOT ensure good UV ray blockage. Coatings to block UVA/UVB/UVC rays are COMPLETELY TRANSPARENT - how dark sunglasses are, does NOT effect how well they block Ultra Violet (UV) rays. Sunglasses should block 1) ultraviolet A, 2) Ultraviolet B AND 3) BLUE LIGHT (400-500 nm) Finding one that also blocks Blue Rays will be the most difficult. Wrap-around sunglasses are recommended (although they do not look as good) Polarization helps with glare (only). Mirror Coatings are good.

International Literacy Day: peace is the word
Friday 7 September 2012 Thursday 26 April 2018 by Save the Children
Saturday 8 September marks the worldwide celebration of International Literacy Day. In a ceremony hosted by UNESCO, this year's theme will focus on the relationship between literacy and peace.
As UNESCO emphasises, lasting peace is founded on the respect for human rights and social justice.
Literacy, as the foundation of all learning and education, can be positioned as a fundamental human right, a means of empowerment and a driving force towards achieving social, cultural, economic and human development.

Literacy as a prerequisite for peace
In this respect literacy can be specifically seen as a prerequisite for peace and a mechanism by which conflict may be prevented or resolved in several key ways.
For example, the acquisition of literacy can empower communities to access vital information allowing them to fully understand and realise their rights and the choices open to them.
Moreover, inclusive educational systems are able to specifically address the opportunity costs associated with armed conflict and violence.
Enabling democracy
Secondly, literacy enables participation in democratic processes. This allows individuals and communities to develop a political voice and take an active role in informing and influencing policy change at different levels.
Further, creating literate environments enables individuals and communities to build mutual respect between one another and fosters dialogue between different groups.
This encourages the promotion of diverse cultural identities and more broadly promotes social capital, fostering trust and cooperation across societal divisions.
Programmatic successes
Each year UNESCO awards International Literacy Prizes. One of this year's winners is Transformemos Educando, a Colombian educational organisation, which aims to educate youth for peace.
In violent regions of the country, out-of-school youth are recruited into terrorist activities and drug trafficking. This programme builds community development structures by offering basic and livelihood education alongside income-generating activities for affected youth, increasing their confidence and positive reintegration into the community.
The topic of literacy and peacebuilding can be seen in various other contexts, as reflected in Wendi Dwyer's recent blog, Literacy Will Tap Into South Sudan's Greatest Resource.
In South Sudan, Lost Boys Rebuilding Southern Sudan (LBRSS) have developed a 'Literacy at the Well' programme, which empowers young women, as the "young nation's best hope for positive change" with literacy skills.
Breaking the Cycle of Crisis
Delivering education in conflict-affected fragile states (CAFS) is at the centre of our education strategy. Our new report Breaking the Cycle of Crisis, evaluates the successes and learning from different settings in four CAFS: Afghanistan, South Sudan, Nepal and Angola.
In Nepal, for example, Save the Children worked to tackle the misuse of school buildings, which were being used as bases for the troops of armed political groups. Save the Children along with other agencies and the local community worked to ensure that schools were declared as 'Zones of Peace'.
Literacy – as the fundamental mechanism by which education is realised and a tool for peace, democracy and sustainable development – must be prioritised by donors, governments and the global community at large in order to ensure that effective policy and programmes are supported and implemented.
Themes: Conflict, Education

Jobs in India present a huge market related to employment. A job is an employer - employee relationship which, if nurtured properly, leads to success and progress of the company and also ensures a good career growth for every other person. A job no more remains a "Just Obey Boss" business but rightfully a "Jump Over Barriers".
While the above statement is true, how long does one lasts in a company or on a job depends on the work environment, career growth, the salary pay cheque and education opportunities?
Freshers are usually most attracted by Govt. jobs. One of the primary advantages of government jobs is long term and stable job. Typically, once you get a govt. job, life is considered as secure. You won't need to look for another job. Also, all the govt. jobs come with life long pension. So, you will have a secure life after your retirement too.
Freshers probably look for any opportunity that can be up for grabs, mid level and upper level experienced people will look for more better opportunities related to their work experience. The skill a person gains and grows through their experience helps to give a better expertise on their subject. An employee is no more a fresher but becomes an Ace of his trade, more essentially the internal cog of the wheel.

Sports, James Naismith, Kansas
James Naismith via Wikicommons.
"Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions." Joel 2:28, NRSV
Though the Reverend Dr. James Naismith, inventor of Basket Ball, passed away long before anyone referred to the NCAA Division I Basketball Tournaments as "March Madness," it seems likely he would have enjoyed our nationwide party of college hoops. Dr. Naismith was not just "a medical doctor, Presbyterian Minister…and owner of a vocabulary without cuss words," as his friend, the legendary football coach Amos Alonzo Stagg, once wrote.1 He dreamed new things. And what is madness, in March or any month, if not a dream-like vision of the world?
His youth in Almonte, Ontario, Canada, had elements of nightmare. His parents died of typhoid fever when he was nine years old, and his brother succumbed to an abdominal infection when James was a student at Montreal's McGill University. The memory of those losses, and the religious education he received while studying for the ministry at Montreal's Presbyterian Theological Seminary, shaped his resilient character, as did his outdoor exploits as a lumberjack, rugby player, and football lineman. The Old and New Testament virtues of determination and compassion coexisted in him to an unusual degree. Mr. Stagg—himself a Presbyterian proponent of the "muscular Christianity" movement that encouraged young people to develop in tandem their physical and spiritual selves—said Naismith the lineman could do "the meanest things…in the most gentlemanly manner."
Naismith's 13 Rules of Basket Ball. via Just in the middle
Many credit Naismith with inventing the football helmet while teaching at the International YMCA Training School in Springfield, Massachusetts (now Springfield College). The safety of Basket Ball players was certainly on his mind in 1891 when he set down the 13 rules of his game, invented to promote indoor exercise among students during New England's coldest months. Rule Number 5 states, "No shouldering, holding, pushing, tripping, or striking in any way the person of an opponent shall be allowed." Even the method of scoring, arching a soccer ball into a peach basket fixed high on the wall, protected teammates and opponents from errant shots. No dribbling was allowed in those early games, nor flagrant fouls. In the YMCA Training School's gym, any player who touched another with the "intent to injure" was immediately ejected.
In Springfield, Naismith coached his future wife, Maude E. Sherman. The two moved to Denver, Colorado, in 1895 so Naismith could complete his physician studies at Gross Medical College. Their last home was Lawrence, Kansas, where Naismith became the director of the gymnasium at the University of Kansas in 1898 and soon started the school's storied men's basketball program. Though the only Jayhawk coach to retire with a losing record (he often spent more time refereeing games than coaching his teams), the chapel services Naismith led before hundreds of students, and the guest sermons he delivered at the First Presbyterian Church in Lawrence, were hugely successful. When some church members objected to a Sunday School game he invented where students combined Bible and baseball stories, Naismith took his newest creation on the road as a visiting minister, preaching the gospel of sportsmanship at other churches in the Midwest.
Manual of the First Presbyterian Church, Lawrence, Kansas : history of church and roll of members, April 1,... by david_phs
Although Naismith was a ruling elder at the Lawrence congregation, he never served as a pastor. Instead, he contented himself with using basketball as his personal ministry to Presbyterians and peoples of all faiths. Wherever life took him and his greatest invention, he never forgot the importance of spiritual guidance. As Josh Swade writes in The Holy Grail of Hoops: One Fan's Quest to Buy the Original Rules of Basketball, "[Naismith] claimed that the only reason he was offered a position at the University of Kansas was because he knew how to pray."
Not coach or win… but pray. Let's hope the men's and women's teams in this year's tournaments are as brave in loss and as humble in victory as the visionary reverend doctor.
