Q: Cannot get consent to connect SPFX webpart with Azure Devops I'm trying to connect to Azure Devops from within a Sharepoint web part.
I have added a couple of permission requests in package-solution.json:
"webApiPermissionRequests": [
    {
      "resource": "Windows Azure Active Directory",
      "scope": "User.Read"
    },
    {
      "resource": "Azure DevOps",
      "scope": "user_impersonation"
    },
    {
      "resource": "SharePoint Online Client Extensibility Web Application Principal",
      "scope": "user_impersonation"
    }
    ...

and use the AAD factory to call an Azure DevOps api, like so:
this.context.aadHttpClientFactory.getClient('499b84ac-1321-427f-aa17-267ca6975798').then((client: AadHttpClient) => {
  client.get(`https://dev.azure.com/reinder0498/_apis/projects?api-version=6.0`, AadHttpClient.configurations.v1)
  .then((response: HttpClientResponse) => {
      console.log(response);
      return response.json();
  })
  .then((projects: any): void => {
      console.log(projects);
  });
});

But then I get this error: "The user or administrator has not consented to use the application with ID '177c71fc-1022-4e3c-82cd-faa17d9864bf' named 'SharePoint Online Client Extensibility Web Application Principal'. Send an interactive authorization request for this user and resource."
I've looked at pending and approved requests in Sharepoint Admin center but could not see any requests coming in...
What else do I have to do to use the aadHttpClientFactory to connect to Azure DevOps API's?

update
If I browse to that Sharepoint Online Client app in AAD, the button to grant admin consent is disabled:

A: Was able to figure it out myself. The thing is that you need to run it inside your teams environment to have the approval request created in your Sharepoint environment.
I now have these permission requests configured:
{
   "resource": "Azure DevOps",
   "scope": "user_impersonation"
},
{
   "resource": "Windows Azure Active Directory",
   "scope": "User.Read"
}

I uploaded my web part to Sharepoint, synced it to Teams and then opened it inside Teams. At some point I got the error message about the consent and then afterwards I saw the approval request appear in Sharepoint Admin.
Once approved, my web part successfully connected to the DevOps REST API.

A: The error occurs for the application registered with Azure AD (Delegated Permissions), which requires either user or an administrator's consent for the permissions it needs.
You need configure permissions in the azure portal for your application and or create a url and grant permissions first . Below is link on how too construct the url. You only need to do it once and can remove permissions when needed.

Total quality management is a structured effort by staff members to constantly enhance the quality of their items and services through correct feedbacks and research study. Total Quality Management (TQM) is a technique that looks for to enhance quality and efficiency which will surpass or satisfy consumer expectations. Total Quality Management (TQM) is a technique that companies utilize to enhance their internal procedures and increase consumer complete satisfaction. When it is effectively carried out, this design of management can cause reduced expenses associated to preventative or restorative upkeep, much better total efficiency, and an increased variety of delighted and faithful consumers.
TQM is not something that takes place over night. While there are a variety of software application services that will assist companies rapidly begin to carry out a quality management system, there are some underlying approaches that the business need to incorporate throughout every department of the business and at every level of management. Whatever other resources you utilize, you must embrace these 7 crucial concepts of Total Quality Management as a structure for all your activities. Total Quality management is specified as a constant effort by the management along with staff members of a specific company to guarantee long term consumer commitment and consumer fulfillment. Keep in mind, one pleased and delighted consumer brings 10 brand-new consumers in addition to him whereas one dissatisfied person will spread out bad word of mouth and ruin numerous of your existing along with prospective clients.
Total quality management is a structured effort by staff members to constantly enhance the quality of their items and services through appropriate feedbacks and research study. Making sure exceptional quality of an item or service is not the obligation of a single member. Every person who gets his/her income from the company has to contribute similarly to develop sure-fire procedures and systems which would ultimately guarantee exceptional quality of items and services. Total Quality management is certainly a joint effort of management, personnel members, labor force, providers in order to surpass and fulfill client fulfillment level.
In order to surpass consumer expectations, a company should accept 5 concepts:.
Produce quality work the very first time.
Have a tactical technique to enhancement.
Motivate shared regard and team effort.
It is the author's contention that in order for a Quality Program to be carried out with the preferred success, a job management method should be set up throughout the company. Task management is advised since it includes multidisciplined and cross-functional individuals for executing the job. Quality here is seen as simply another task. TQM was established by William Deming, a management expert whose work had fantastic effect on Japanese production. TQM focuses on guaranteeing that internal standards and procedure requirements minimize mistakes, while Total Quality Management (TQM) is a structured technique to general organizational management. The focus of the procedure is to enhance the quality of a companies outputs, consisting of services and products, through consistent enhancement of internal practices.


heat and temperature must be perceived by the students correctly.
taken from the students who are in year 1 and 2 of the high schools and 14 to 16.
tools, some observations were made to facilitate students' understanding.
It is a reality that many events which we come across or observe in our daily life are related with science. When individuals comprehend the relationship between the events which effect their lives and the knowledge they gained from school, this makes great contribution to their meaningful learning. In order to achieve meaningful and permanent learning, first of all, the misconceptions of students should be determined. The aim of this study was to identify prospective science teachers' misconceptions concerning photosynthesis and respiration in plants. The sample of this study consists of 100 prospective science teachers who attended at Department of Science Education in Fatih Education Faculty in Karadeniz Technical University in Trabzon in Turkiye. Prospective science teachers' misconceptions were identified by using "Photosynthesis and Respiration in Plants Concept Test", including two-tier multiple choice format with 20 items. Findings indicated that most of the prospective science teachers hold misconceptions about photosynthesis and respiration in plants, such as "Only green plants can carry out photosynthesis", "Photosynthesis is a gas exchange process", "Respiration in plants occurs only at night", "Respiration in plants occurs only in the leaves", "Photosynthesis is reverse of respiration", "Plants obtain their food from water", "Plants' food is water". The reasons of these were detected to stem from students' prior knowledge, the difference between scientific language and daily language and text books. In order to avoid the misconceptions about this issue, the effective methods in removing misconceptions such as concept map and conceptual change texts usage are suggested.
This research, accomplished in order to examine the in-class games and role playing activities that place the student at the center increase student's success in the science lessons. Research is carried out in Ülkü Akın Primary School and Ahmet Barındırır Primary School located in the center of Ankara city. Two eight degree classes are randomly selected from each school. One control an done experiment group is formed in each school. Experimental pattern is applied with pre-test post-test control group. As the data collection tool fort he research, success test is developed. Data obtained from the success test is examined with the T-test statistical technique for irrelated groups. As a consequence obtained from the analysis of the obtained data, in the instruction of genetics chapter, DNA-Watson Crick Model, in-class applications (using role playing and games), is more effective than traditional instruction model.
Background (Introduction) Today to cope with the changing environmental conditions and the environmental problems, countries separate their budgets in to the solving these problems. But; the easiest way is that growing up sensible generation about environmental problems. Especially environmental education has an important role in order to realize this mission. Environmental Education has its origins in the 1960s. Through the decade of the 1970s and into the 1980s, the Environmental Education movement grew rapidly. Education concerning environmental problems was recognized at the World Conference on the Environment in Rio de Janeiro in 1972. These emergences are today evident in environmental education.
Purpose This study was conducted to understand university students' attitude toward environment and environmental issues. Also it was examined whether attitude toward environment of students differ significantly based on their socio-economic status.
Sample For this study a sample of 225 student teachers was used. The sample composed of 143 girls and 82 boys. Participants included the sophomore students of Faculty of Education at Pamukkale University in Denizli, in Turkey.
Design and methods For the purpose of this study, a survey composed of two section was given to sophomore students. In the first section of the survey, students were asked about demographics, in the second part they were given a scale to measure their attitudes toward environment and environmental issues. The reliability of Environmental Attitude Scale was found to be 0,81.
Results According to the results of this study; students' attitude toward environment and environmental issues are not very high. Furthermore, environmental attitude of girls is higher than that of boys at a significant level. Mothers' occupation cause significant differences on students' attitude toward environment. Although student's attitude toward environmental issues differs regarding age and number of siblings, attitude toward environmental issues doesn't differ regarding father's occupation, parents' educational level, their house, families' economic status and whether the students took lesson about environment before.
Conclusion To protect the environment, it is necessary to educate people as individuals who have environmental awareness and knowledge to environmental subjects. Environmental education has an important role in order to realize growing up sensible generation about environmental problems. Findings in this study may be interest to educators and have implications for development in Environmental Education in Turkey.
One of the main aims of biology education is to provide students' learning the concepts meaningfully. It is known that students have some difficulties in understanding some abstract concepts in biology and hold misconceptions. In order to make meaningful learning possible, these misconceptions should be removed. In previous studies, it is emphasized that traditional education methods are inadequate for removing misconceptions. In this study, the effect of conceptual change texts on overcoming the misconceptions about photosynthesis and respiration in plants for prospective science teachers (PSTs) were investigated. The sample of this study consisted of 100 PSTs from the two classes of Department of Science Education in Fatih Education Faculty in Karadeniz Technical University, in Trabzon in Turkiye. The classes were randomly chosen and one class was assigned as experiment group, which was exposed to conceptual change text instruction (CCTs), and the other class as control group, which was exposed to traditionally designed biology instruction (TDBIs). In the study, "Photosynthesis and Respiration in Plants Concept Test" was developed in order to collect data. This test was administered to both experiment and control groups as pre-test and post-test. The findings indicated that most of the PSTs had misconceptions about photosynthesis and respiration of plants. This study proved that for PSTs understanding and overcoming misconceptions about concepts of "photosynthesis and respiration in plants" topic, the CCTs, when compared with TDBIs, are more effective. Under the light of the findings, when the idea that instruction, conducted with CCTs is an effective method in overcoming students' misconceptions was taken into consideration, it can be suggested that conceptual change texts can also be devised and implemented on the topics of other fields of science.

This week we learn about a platform for engaging with audiences via text messages, and we explore how to handle corrections to social media posts.
A new platform called Groundsource seeks to help newsrooms interact with their communities outside the confines of smartphones and social media, instead relying on more basic text messaging. Founder Andrew Haeg says the system makes engagement more natural and, therefore, more open.
Reporting by Katy Mersmann, Reuben Stern and Rachel Wise.
Earlier in his career, Haeg was a creator of the Public Insight Network, which uses Web forms and email to tap the collective expertise of individual audience members and better inform news coverage.
With consumers getting news via multiple platforms including social media, correcting the record when a mistake gets out has become more complex. We explore some ways to address the problem.

Stevie Branche, Boy Scout and Trailblazer
Alia Akkam September 22, 2014
Residents of Woodland Pond at New Paltz, the upscale senior living community, can wade in the indoor pool, unwind in the billiards room, and now — thanks to New Paltz High School senior Stevie Branche — commune with nature and stretch their legs on a new walking trail.
Last year's opening of a short path, which leads to a viewing platform overlooking a pond, was a welcome addition to campus, but residents yearned for more: an opportunity to take in the great outdoors along with a bit of exercise on a continuous loop trail. After learning this piece of intel from his mother, the site's facilities coordinator, Branche started hatching plans for his a Boy Scouts service project, which would ultimately lead him a step closer to earning coveted Eagle Scout status. After securing numerous approvals, Branche began work on extending and improving Woodland Pond's trail last fall.
It was something of a group effort, Branche recalls: "Sometimes it was just me working, sometimes my dad came along, sometimes 15 of my fellow troop members joined in." With flagging tape and stakes, he devised an easy walking path with minimal slopes. His father rented a Brush Hog, and together they cleared out the weeds; other troop members tackled the remaining roots and branches. A layer of wood chips and mulch made the land soft underfoot. After 200 hours of work, the path opened in late August.
"It's just a nice walk through the woods, where you can sit down on a bench and have a rest," Branche says.
He joined the Cub Scouts when he was "as young as could be"; the Woodland Pond project is thus far the largest he's taken on — something he hopes will make a strong impression when he applies for college this year, where he also hopes to play baseball.
"It was tough and long," says Branche of the work, "but worth it for the sense of pride and accomplishment."

Devaraja Mudaliar was a lawyer by profession. He had his first darshan of Bhagavan Ramana at the Virupaksha cave in the first decade of the twentieth century and over the years occasionally visited him. It was however much later, in the 1930's, that he became a close devotee of the Sage.
Devaraja Mudaliar's approach to Sri Bhagavan was like that of a child with his father – free, simple and spontaneous. He was one of the very few devotees who have questioned Sri Bhagavan on various problems that confront man, whether trivial or profound. He came to live in Sri ramanasramam in 1942, where he lived for many years until 1966. He was thus able to closely observe Sri Bhagavan and his life and interact daily with him.
In 1945, Devaraja Mudaliar began writing a diary of events and conversations that took place in the Old Hall of Sri Bhagavan. Here we come across a variety of questions from devotees and visitors and Sri Bhagavan's answers to them. The Sage's humour, compassion and above all his mighty spiritual status are wholly brought out in this work.

STATE OF KANSAS.
No. 449. Argued April 1 and 2, 1964. Decided June 22, 1964.
Stanley Fleishman, Hollywood, Cal., for appellants.
William M. Ferguson, Topeka, Kan., for appellee.
Mr. Justice BRENNAN announced the judgment of the Court and delivered an opinion in which THE CHIEF JUSTICE, Mr. Justice WHITE, and Mr. Justice GOLDBERG join.
Under a Kansas statute authorizing the seizure of allegedly obscene books before an adversary determina-
tion of their obscenity and, after that determination, their destruction by burning or otherwise,1 the Attorney General of Kansas obtained an order from the District Court of Geary County directing the sheriff of the county to seize and impound, pending hearing, copies of certain
paperback novels at the place of business of P-K News Service, Junction City, Kansas. After hearing, the court entered a second order directing the sheriff to destroy the 1,715 copies of 31 novels which had been seized. The Kansas Supreme Court held that the procedures met constitutional require ents and affirmed the District Court's order. 191 Kan. 13, 379 P.2d 254. Probable jurisdiction was noted, 375 U.S. 919, 84 S.Ct. 268, 11 L.Ed.2d 163. We conclude that the procedures followed in issuing the warrant for the seizure of the books, and authorizing their impounding pending hearing, were constitutionally insufficient because they did not adequately safeguard against the suppression of nonobscene books. For this reason we think the judgment must be reversed. Therefore we do not reach, and intimate no view upon, the appellants' contention that the Kansas courts erred in holding that the novels are obscene.
Section 4 of the Kansas statute requires the filing of a verified Information stating only that 'upon information and belief * * * there is (an) * * * obscene book * * * located within his county.' The State Attorney General went further, however, and filed an Information identifying by title 59 novels, and stating that 'each of said books (has) been published as 'This is an original Nightstand Book." He also filed with the Information copies of seven novels published under that caption, six of which were named by title in the Information; particular passages in the seven novels were marked with penciled notations or slips of paper. Although also not expressly required by the statute, the district judge, on application of the Attorney General, conducted a 45-minute ex parte inquiry during which he 'scrutinized' the seven books; at the conclusion of this examination, he stated for the record that they 'appear to be obscene literature as defined' under the Kansas statute 'and give this Court reasonable grounds to believe that any paper-
backed publication carrying the following: 'This is an original Night Stand book' would fall w thin the same category * * *.' He issued a warrant which authorized the sheriff to seize only the particular novels identified by title in the Information. When the warrant was executed on the date it was issued, only 31 of the titles were found on P-K's premises. All copies of such titles, however, 1,715 books in all, were seized and impounded. At the hearing held 10 days later pursuant to a notice included in the warrant, P-K made a motion to quash the Information and the warrant on the ground, among others, that the procedure preceding the seizure was constitutionally deficient. The claim was that by failing first to afford P-K a hearing on the question whether the books were obscene, the procedure 'operates as a prior restraint on the circulation and dissemination of books' in violation of the constitutional restrictions against abridgment of freedom of speech and press. The motion was denied, and following a final hearing held about seven weeks after the seizure (the hearing date was continued on motion of P-K), the court held that all 31 novels were obscene and ordered the sheriff to stand ready to destroy the 1,715 copies on further order.
The steps taken beyond the express requirements of the statute were thought by the Attorney General to be necessary under our decision in Marcus v. Search Warrant, 367 U.S. 717, 81 S.Ct. 1708, 6 L.Ed.2d 1127, decided a few weeks before the Information was filed. Marcus involved a proceeding under a strikingly similar Missouri search and seizure statute and implementing rule of court. See 367 U.S. 719, at notes 2, 3, 81 S.Ct., at 1709. In Marcus the warrant gave the police virtually unlimited authority to seize any publications which they considered to be obscene, and was issued on a verified complaint lacking any specific description of the publications to be seized, and without prior submission of any publications whatever to the judge issuing the warrant.
We reversed a judgment directing the destruction of the copies of 100 publications held to be obscene, holding that, even assuming that they were obscene, the procedures leading to their condemnation were constitutionally deficient for lack of safeguards to prevent suppression of nonobscene publications protected by the Constitution.
It is our view that since the warrant here authorized the sheriff to seize all copies of the specified titles, and since P-K was not afforded a hearing on the question of the obscenity even of the seven novels before the warrant issued, the procedure was likewise constitutionally deficient.2 This is the teaching of Kingsley Books, Inc., v. Brown, 354 U.S. 436, 77 S.Ct. 1325, 1 L.Ed.2d 1469. See Marcus, 367 U.S. at pp. 734—738, 81 S.Ct. at pp. 1717—1719. The New York injunctive procedure there sustained does not afford ex parte relief but postpones all injunctive relief until 'both sides have had an opportunity to be heard.' Tenney v. Liberty News Distributors, 13 A.D.2d 770, 215 N.Y.S.2d 663, 664. In Marcus we explicitly said that Kingsley Books 'does not support the proposition that the State may impose the extensive restraints imposed here on the distribution of these publications prior to an adversary proceeding on the issue of obscenity, irrespective of whether or not the material is legally obscene.' 367 U.S., at 735 736, 81 S.Ct., at 1718. A seizure of all copies of the named titles is indeed more repressive than an injunction preventing further sale of the books. State regulation of obscenity must 'conform to procedures that will ensure against the curtailment of constitutionally protected expression, which is often separated from obscenity only by a dim and uncertain line.' Bantam Books, Inc. v. Sullivan, 372 U.S. 58, 66, 83 S.Ct. 631, 637, 9 L.Ed.2d 584; the Constitution requires a procedure 'designed to focus searchingly on the question of obscenity,' Marcus, 367 U.S. p. 732, 81 S.Ct. p. 1716. We therefore
conclude that in not first affording P-K an adversary hearing, the procedure leading to the seizure o der was constitutionally deficient. What we said of the Missouri procedure, id., 367 U.S. at 736—737, 81 S.Ct. at 1718—1719, also fits the Kansas procedure employed to remove these books from circulation:
'* * * there is no doubt that an effective restraint—indeed the most effective restraint possible—was imposed prior to hearing on the circulation of the publications in this case, because all copies on which the (sheriff) could lay (his) hands were physically removed * * * from the premises of the wholesale distributor. An opportunity * * * to circulate the (books) * * * and then raise the claim of nonobscenity by way of defense to a prosecution for doing so was never afforded these appellants because the copies they possessed were taken away. Their ability to circulate their publications was left to the chance of securing other copies, themselves subject to mass seizure under other such warrants. The public's opportunity to obtain the publications was thus determined by the distributor's readiness and ability to outwit the police by obtaining and selling other copies before they in turn could be seized. In addition to its unseemliness, we do not believe that this kind of enforced competition affords a reasonable likelihood that nonobscene publications, entitled to constitutional protection, will reach the public. A distributor may have every reason to believe that a publication is constitutionally protected and will be so held after judicial hearing, but his belief is unavailing as against the contrary (ex parte) judgment (pursuant to which the sheriff) * * * seizes it from him.'
It is no answer to say that obscene books are contraband, and that consequently the standards governing searches and seizures of allegedly obscene books should
not differ from those applied with respect to narcotics, gambling paraphernalia and other contraband. We rejected that proposition in Marcus. We said, 367 U.S., at 730—731, 81 S.Ct., at 1715—1716:
'The Missouri Supreme Court's assimilation of obscene literature to gambling paraphernalia or other contraband for purposes of search and seizure does not therefore answer the appellants' constitutional claim, but merely restates the issue whether obscenity may be treated in the same way. The authority to the police officers under the warrants issued in this case, broadly to seize 'obscene * * * publications,' poses problems not raised by the warrants to seize 'gambling implements' and 'all intoxicating liquors' involved in the cases cited by the Missouri Supreme Court. 334 S.W.2d (119) at page 125. For the use of these warrants implicates questions whether the procedures leading to their issuance and surrounding their execution were adequate to avoid suppression of constitutionally protected publications. '* * * (T)he line between speech unconditionally guaranteed and speech which may legitimately be regulated, suppressed, or punished is finely drawn. * * * The separation of legitimate from illegitimate...

Over the past few years Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) has taken initiative in bettering active transportation facilities in Orange County with projects such as the Regional Bikeway Strategies, Pedestrian Action Plan, and the OC Loop Advancement. Active transportation promotes healthy, happy lifestyles and a more sustainable mode of transportation.
This is why OCTA is preparing for OC Active—Orange County's Bike and Pedestrian Plan, a project that aims to recognize the areas and opportunities of improvement for active transportation countywide. This in turn will make active transportation a more reliable mode of transportation within Orange County. The estimated 18 month project began in March of 2017 with an established set of goals to serve as the guidelines for the preparation and implementation of the project.
The public outreach approach for OC Active includes attending community events to encourage participation from a broad and diverse audience. The overall community engagement will influence the technical analysis on bicycle and pedestrian advancements countywide.

We are glad to announce that we have been given a certificate by Kaweco Germany to import & resell Kaweco products. With this honor, we hope to serve you better.
"KaWeCo (Federhalter-Fabrik Koch, Weber & Co) is a manufacturer of writing instruments based in Heidelberg, Germany. The company was initially founded in 1883 as the Heidelberger Federhalterfabrik.
Following the First World War, the company began to produce its own gold nibs to reduce their dependence on imported American components. The economic crisis of 1928 put the firm in jeopardy, and it declared bankruptcy in 1929.
In 1929, the company was taken over by Badischen Füllfederfabrik Worringen und Grube. It became one of the first German manufacturers to employ injection molding. In the early 1930s, the firm began to produce piston filler fountain pens, and continued production a smaller scale throughout World War II.


Do you want to know how to make more money on the internet? Do you want to make more money working from home?
Then step right this way and I will give you a golden ticket.
Now that we have the marketing spiel out of the way, I can actually start delving into the point of this article (which I am sure you have worked out from the title anyways!).
WP Engine are a managed WordPress hosting company that have a great presence in the WordPress world. To put it bluntly, they pay a crap load of money to affiliates who promote their service.
High payouts are common in the hosting world, but WP Engine's affiliate program is very competitive. They will pay you at least $200 per referred customer.
If the customer chooses a monthly hosting plan that costs more than $200, they will match that 100% payment and pay it to you as a commission. The most you can earn is a whopping $7,500 from a referral. That's insane. Do you know of any other program that can earn you that amount of money from one customer?
I will explain in detail why I have not yet promoted WP Engine later this week so please stay tuned for that. In the meantime, please allow me to keep on my internet marketing hat and explain why this is such a good affiliate program to join.
When I went to WordCamp Europe 2016 in Vienna recently I heard about how some WordPress bloggers were killing it with WP Engine and making tens of thousands of dollars in referral commissions every month. That is the kind of cheddar that sends alarm bells ringing in any affiliate marketer.
There are a few reasons why their affiliate program is so profitable.
Secondly, their hosting plans are more expensive that traditional hosting companies which is how they can pay higher commissions.
WP Engine's premium and enterprise grade plans cost much more. The exact cost depends on what setup the customer chooses. If someone opts for one of those more expensive plans, your commission for one customer could be in the thousands. That's a helluva lot of cash for one referral.
WP Engine's affiliate program has the potential to pay you a mega payout with just one referral.
Another big selling points is that WP Engine host their affiliate program on ShareASale. They are a reputable affiliate network so you don't have to worry about any in-house shenanigans messing about with your stats. The program has two levels and will reward you for referring sub-affiliates too. Cookies also last a healthy 180 days.
In short, the WP Engine affiliate program presents a good opportunity for earning a lot of money. You can promote them using banner links or via a review of their service. You could also send a blast out to your email list.
I will talk about WP Engine as a service at a later date and do a in-depth review of their service for my hosting guide. All I wanted to do in this article was stress this opportunity available to you.
Those of you who have experience in affiliate marketing or who actively talk about WordPress, blogging, or other website issues on your blog, should take a close look at the WP Engine affiliate program. All you need is one commission to make it worthwhile.

You can improve your athleticism at any age. Maybe your childhood was filled with much richness, but didn't include much moving. Perhaps you are a high level high school or college athlete, but there is something , some sort of resistance or physical interference that has been a puzzle for you. There may be a gem you had no idea would make the difference it does, a physical drill, a way of looking at yourself or your potential, a paradigm that just needs a slight tweaking, an eye position, a style of massage, an acupressure point, or some sort of inspiration that gives you a new approach. Here is where it gets exciting….

Who wants it more? Bayern host Leipzig in top-of-the-table clash
Created on 2020-12-05 at 16:22 PM
On Saturday evening (follow the action on fcbayern.com from 12:30 pm ET with our live text commentary and free web radio), FC Bayern have the chance to earn some genuinely crucial points. The defending champions host RB Leipzig in the weekend's top fixture, with the men from Saxony sitting just behind FCB in the standings. "Top of the table clashes are always special," said Hansi Flick on Friday, looking forward to the duel. Read all the important information about this game in our preview.
The situation for FC Bayern
Bayern are sitting where they feel most comfortable in the Bundesliga: at the top. But the situation is tight. Opponents Leipzig are lying in wait only two points behind. In the event of a home win, Manuel Neuer & Co. would not only chalk up three points, they would distance themselves from the chasing pack. "Champions always step up when big games are on the agenda. I expect my team to show they can play better than the last few weeks. Our goal is to take the three points in Munich. They would be huge points," said Flick.
Bayern made their final preparations for the game against Leipzig in training on Friday. View the best pictures in the gallery:
Opponents RB Leipzig
Leipzig missed out on qualification for the Champions League last 16 during the week. Reaching the knockout stage is still in their own hands thanks to a win against Istanbul Basaksehir, but the hard-fought 4-3 stoppage time victory may have taken its toll. Flick is certain this will not affect the duel at the Allianz Arena: "In this game - a special one for both teams - every player is highly motivated. It doesn't matter who played before and when. Both teams will try to give 100% on the pitch." Julian Nagelsmann's team have only suffered one defeat in the league (1-0 in Gladbach), as well as two draws and six wins.
Personnel, tactics and more: the press conference with Hansi Flick before the game against RB Leipzig:

Minute's silence for Kurt Hegerich & thanks to volunteers
Before the kick-off, FC Bayern will commemorate recently deceased former treasurer Kurt Hegerich with a minute's silence. The Reds will also play with black armbands. In addition, the entire Bundesliga matchday has the motto "Thank you volunteers." FC Bayern are also involved in this campaign.

Alphonso Davies has been able to train with the team again over the past few days, "but he won't be playing tomorrow," said Flick on Friday. In addition, the 55-year-old is without Corentin Tolisso and Joshua Kimmich. "If he had his way, he'd be playing for 60 minutes tomorrow. But we won't rush anything, and we'll be happy if he's back soon," said Flick, delighted with the Germany international's rehab.
Leipzig have a number of players rated doubtful after the show of strength in Istanbul, but can look forward to the return of Christopher Nkunku. Benjamin Henrichs (patellar tendonitis), Hee-chan Hwang (coronavirus), Lukas Klostermann (arthroscopy in the left knee) and Konrad Laimer (arthroscopy in the right knee) will all be missing.
What the coaches said
FC Bayern coach Hansi Flick
"It will be crucial to invest more in the game than Leipzig."
Hansi Flick: "Leipzig have come on enormously, they were in the semi-finals of the Champions League last season. They play with lots of variation, move forward quickly and put opponents under pressure. It will be crucial to invest more in the game than Leipzig."
Julian Nagelsmann (RB Leipzig coach): "Last year we could have won in Munich. We've also developed a promising idea for this Saturday. With a win we could overtake Bayern and climb to the top of the table."

Mandarin Segments is 1 today!
My monthly visitor count has grown consistently over the last year.
A special thanks to you, the readers. Thanks for reading the articles, for leaving comments, and for sending me emails.
This article answers a question that most of you have been thinking about since you started learning Chinese: How does Mandarin link together the following: Mary Poppins, long English words, mermaids, and total indifference??
Putting it all together we are not surprised to see that the dictionary provides the following definition: "opposition to the belief that there should no longer be an official church in a country". Other than the church referenc, it's quite logical.
It is not impossible to reverse-engineer using the definitions above ("actually" & "to name"), but if you hadn't learned the word already, you're probably unlikely to guess its meaning. That's OK - we see this a lot in Chinese.
Sorry, but even knowing the meaning of all three characters and knowing the meaning of the "meaty" part of the word, there is no way I would guess it has this definition.
This is not an excuse not to learn Mandarin. It certainly doesn't prove that Mandarin is impossible. It merely means that sometimes you have to go past the 'intuitive' - and just learn it.
The conversation started off well, and we spoke (in Mandarin) about language learning, working in different countries, the most interesting things I did in Guilin, and so on. I felt good, I understood what he was saying, and was able to communicate my thoughts to him. This lasted about 20 minutes.
Then the conversation moved on to traffic-related topics. We were still doing fine while talking about traffic jams, dangerous driving, accidents, injuries vs deaths, and so on. But it started to go wrong at the time when he was trying to say "driver's licence" - a word I did not know. Eventually he showed me his, I said the closest word I could think of (证书, zhèngshū, certificate/credentials) to confirm.
He agreed, and we were on track again.
This reminded me that to truly become fluent in a language, there really are a lot of words you need to know - there are so many words I don't know, even about cars & traffic (which is just one topic out of millions). So many more.
For a while there I became disheartened. At that stage I started talking to the taxi driver again, and he was saying that one day he would want to learn English too. And I realised that whatever language you learn, you would have to learn all these words.
Sometimes I just find myself convinced that Mandarin is ridiculously difficult, and it would be so easy if I were learning another language. But of course that's not true. Ultimately, if you're learning a new language you have to learn lots of words, sayings, and sentence structures.
So stop complaining and just get on with it.
How committed are you to your studies? How many new words did you learn today? And in the last month?
Make it easy on yourself, show an additional level of commitment to your Mandarin studies, and have the updates delivered to you automatically. This is especially true for any series on this blog - where you don't want to miss an article.
have new articles emailed to you as soon as they're published here.
Remember that the above methods will only give you access to the main article. There are usually excellent contributions from other readers, which will definitely add to your understanding of the topic. So once you've got the article update, make sure you go to the online version too - to read their comments, or perhaps to leave your own.
Finally, you can always follow me on Twitter (@MandarinSx), where I will mention when a new article has been published, and provide other updates along the way.
How much does pinyin confuse you? Which is the worst part for you?
Pinyin is the system which provides a method for pronouncing the Chinese characters using a Roman alphabet (and tone marks). It was developed by the Chinese for the Chinese - and let's face it, although it's the system we use in the West, if Westerners had designed it, I think we would have used different letters to represent the different sounds.
c is pronounced "ts", z is "dz", zh is like "j", x is "sh" (kinda) ... sigh.
For me, the parts I got wrong in the beginning were mainly 'c' and 'z', and even today I find myself stumbling over words like "cúnzài" (存在 - to exist) when I talk too fast for my brain.
You might have a similar problem. In fact, you might not even realise you have the problem!
For example, when I meet other students of Mandarin in London, and I listen to sentences like "I live in London" (wǒ zhù zài Lúndūn), the 'zai' is often pronounced 'tsai' and not 'dzai' - so I know I'm not the only one.
Test yourself - how do you pronounce 汉字 (Hànzì - Chinese character), 现在 (xiànzài - now), 菜单 (càidān - menu), 词典 (cídiǎn - dictionary)?
So cúnzài would (phonetically) be [ts]un-[dz]ai. Got it?
Cats & Zeds. Got it?

FreightWeekSTL Returns In Virtual Format For 2022
May 17, 2022 By Waterways Journal
FreightWeekSTL returns May 23 through May 27 as a virtual event featuring seven discussions focused on the latest trends and innovations influencing worldwide freight movement and highlighting the global access available from the St. Louis bi-state region.
For the fifth consecutive year, the conference is being offered in partnership with Inland Marine Expo (IMX). IMX will host its in-person conference May 23-25 in downtown St. Louis, bringing hundreds of inland waterway experts and industry leaders to the St. Louis area. The combined events provide an opportunity to hear from and engage with freight and logistics experts, international shippers, carriers and other leading companies – as well as regional leaders from eastern Missouri and southwestern Illinois.
"FreightWeekSTL 2022 will kick off with Innovation Day, during which we will share the latest advances in the efforts to develop an autonomous, zero-emissions railcar and also provide an update on the revolutionary Container-on-Vessel service coming to the Midwest that will really position our inland waterway system as the marine highway it has the potential to be," said Mary Lamie, executive vice president of multi-modal enterprises for Bi-State Development, which operates the St. Louis Regional Freightway as one of its enterprises. "We're committed to presenting some of the most relevant and timely topics in the logistics industry and are excited to continue the tradition of bringing together forward-thinkers who are shaping the future of the freight industry."The full line up for FreightWeekSTL 2022 includes:
• The CEO of the St. Louis-based start-up Intramotev Autonomous Rail will share details on the advances his company is making in the development of an autonomous, zero-emissions railcar that would be able to operate without the use of a locomotive.
• A different panel discussion will highlight the latest information on the collaborative effort to launch Container-on-Vessel (COV) service to the Midwest, including milestones related to the patented vessels and Midwest ports that will be part of this new, all-water, north-south trade lane that connects to the Lower Mississippi River and on to worldwide destinations.
• Another discussion will spotlight APM Terminals' global operation of one of the world's most comprehensive port networks, serving 10,000 customers around the globe, and the role that the St. Louis region will soon play as part of that network.
• Another panel will highlight the global connectivity through Union Pacific's dedicated rail service to the largest U.S. port complex, the latest technology UP is deploying and how it benefits the industry and the operations at the UP Intermodal Yard in Dupo, Ill.
• A panel discussion will focus on the significant investments underway at three Midwest ports and other improvements being studied by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers that together will facilitate an increase in barge services and deliver cost efficiencies that drive profitability for the industry. (This panel is being offered virtually and in-person at the Inland Marine Expo.)
• A new partnership will be introduced between the St. Louis Regional Freightway and KC SmartPort to highlight the importance of reconstruction and adding capacity to Missouri's statewide Interstate 70 logistics corridor and input from a manufacturer who relies heavily on this corridor for its domestic and global distribution.
• One panel discussion will focus on the economic impact of Illinois Route 3, detailing how this 60-mile corridor just east of St. Louis has become a nationally significant heavy industrial corridor and including insight into how international business trends affect site selection.
The week also will include a riverboat tour on the Mississippi River, providing a unique perspective to view the key freight assets and opportunities that position the St. Louis region as a thriving freight and logistics hub and contribute to this section of the Mississippi River being recognized as the Ag Coast of America.
Another highlight of FreightWeekSTL 2022 includes the live digital release of the 2023 Priority Projects List—a valuable tool used to advocate for support and funding for critical infrastructure improvements that strengthen the St. Louis region's position as one location delivering global access. The week will wrap up with the release of the latest Industrial Market Report for the region.
"We're anticipating another great event as people join us virtually for FreightWeekSTL or take advantage of the flexibility our format offers to catch up on the timely and important topics we'll be exploring on their own schedules," Lamie said. "This approach enables us to connect with the broadest audience possible, so we can further elevate our standing as a world-class freight hub and raise greater awareness of the St. Louis region as an innovator in freight transportation."
The St. Louis Regional Freightway is an enterprise of Bi-State Development, a multi-faceted resource for economic development in the St. Louis region. Bi-State Development was tapped in 2014 to establish and globally market a freight district for freight operations and opportunities within the bi-state area.
"For five years, FreightWeekSTL has stood out as a signature initiative in the St. Louis Regional Freightway's efforts to share the region's greatest freight and site-selection strengths," said Bi-State Development President and CEO Taulby Roach. "Bi-State Development is proud of the role our Freightway enterprise continues to play in delivering this important industry event, while connecting the private and public sectors in support of initiatives and investments that reinforce the global connectivity the St. Louis region offers."

Somewhere in all space and time there is a place where it all makes sense. Then again, maybe none of anything is meant to make any sense which also makes perfect sense if you don't think about it. It made perfect sense, for example, to seek shelter in a basement from the onslaught of multinational sport sponsorship that passes for football these days. Finding Zaïmph, Heather Leigh and Richard Youngs there moved sense to a whole new dimension.
A stage lit in red. Smoke aplenty. A mannequin dressed in robes. A delirium waiting to be unleashed perhaps? Perhaps became a certainty. Heather Leigh centre stage with her instrument of choice, the pedal steel, and, forcibly divorcing it from its usual Nashville home, she used it to exorcise demons from the darkness and force them to dance the dance of discord before fading everything into the temporal abyss of the eternal. This was a wordless symphony worthy of the Krell.
Cunningly providing comic relief to contrast with the intensity of Heather Leigh, Richard Youngs then took to the same stage and parodied the pretentiousness that many would see as part and parcel of the underground music scene by simply staring at his guitar for ten minutes before randomly hitting a few strings. It was an inspired performance that allowed Richard Youngs to, as the immortal bard would have put it, portray himself as having hairy palms from excessively spanking his musical monkey. With the right management he could have his own television show by next Thursday.
And then there was Zaïmph. Armed with and impressive amount of Heath Robinson-esque onstage electronics she dispensed sonic intoxication of remarkable potency that took the listener off into an inner space full of blue shadows and Richter scale subsonic rumblings. It was as if a spell had been cast for all free will duly surrendered to her hypnotic musical influence and, with all souls now kidnapped, what would be the ransom? The ransom would never be known for, as the midnight hour drew near, all became silent and Zaïmph, gracious in victory, released everyone into the night.
Sense is hardly essential in multi-dimensional space but you might care to ponder why there is more light in the underground than there is on the street.


A dime, which is ten cents is a smaller coin than a nickel (5 cents) and a penny (1 cent). A quarter is 25 cents when we talk about money, but 15 minutes when we use the term 'quarter' as an idiom to tell time ("It's a quarter past three." - 3:15). In addition to these coins, there are also 50 cent coins (known as half-dollars or fifty cent pieces) and dollar coins. Both of these coins are not as common as the penny, nickel, dime and quarter. On a recent trip to the US (April 2015), I noticed that some vending machines that accepted five or ten dollar bills returned dollar coins as change. These dollar coins can be used anywhere to buy stuff, but most stores won't give them as change.
Many people know that many Americans rely on credit cards. Carrying cash and change is not as common as it used to be. Though this is true, having coins handy for various daily tasks is helpful. Depending on the city you live in in the US, you may need coins - nickels, dimes and quarters - for any of the following tasks.

Identify Coins Only By Feeling Them!
While at times, you will have time to sift through the coins, look at them to identify them, there will be other times, you will have to be quick to identify the coin only by feeling it. For instance, when you are approaching a toll booth, you should have the coins ready in advance of pulling up to the window. Or, when getting on most buses, you exact coins. What I suggest is put the coins on the table, just feel them one by one. Now, close your eyes. Feel the coins again. Can you identify them by just feeling them one by one? If yes, then put about twenty or thirty random coins into a small bag or in the coin container of your car, reach in and see if you can identify the coin only by feeling it.
The good thing is that American coins are standard sizes and weights. Once your hand learns the feel of a penny- the penny will always feel the same. Likewise, with the nickel, dime and quarter.
