Q: Event handling in Dojo Taking Jeff Atwood's advice, I decided to use a JavaScript library for the very basic to-do list application I'm writing. I picked the Dojo toolkit, version 1.1.1. At first, all was fine: the drag-and-drop code I wrote worked first time, you can drag tasks on-screen to change their order of precedence, and each drag-and-drop operation calls an event handler that sends an AJAX call to the server to let it know that order has been changed.
Then I went to add in the email tracking functionality. Standard stuff: new incoming emails have a unique ID number attached to their subject line, all subsequent emails about that problem can be tracked by simply leaving that ID number in the subject when you reply. So, we have a list of open tasks, each with their own ID number, and each of those tasks has a time-ordered list of associated emails. I wanted the text of those emails to be available to the user as they were looking at their list of tasks, so I made each task box a Dijit "Tree" control - top level contains the task description, branches contain email dates, and a single "leaf" off of each of those branches contains the email text.
First problem: I wanted the tree view to be fully-collapsed by default. After searching Google quite extensively, I found a number of solutions, all of which seemed to be valid for previous versions of Dojo but not the one I was using. I eventually figured out that the best solution would seem to be to have a event handler called when the Tree control had loaded that simply collapsed each branch/leaf. Unfortunately, even though the Tree control had been instantiated and its "startup" event handler called, the branches and leaves still hadn't loaded (the data was still being loaded via an AJAX call). So, I modified the system so that all email text and Tree structure is added server-side. This means the whole fully-populated Tree control is available when its startup event handler is called.
So, the startup event handler fully collapses the tree. Next, I couldn't find a "proper" way to have nice formatted text for the email leaves. I can put the email text in the leaf just fine, but any HTML gets escaped out and shows up in the web page. Cue more rummaging around Dojo's documentation (tends to be out of date, with code and examples for pre-1.0 versions) and Google. I eventually came up with the solution of getting JavaScript to go and read the SPAN element that's inside each leaf node and un-escape the escaped HTML code in it's innerHTML. I figured I'd put code to do this in with the fully-collapse-the-tree code, in the Tree control's startup event handler.
However... it turns out that the SPAN element isn't actually created until the user clicks on the expando (the little "+" symbol in a tree view you click to expand a node). Okay, fair enough - I'll add the re-formatting code to the onExpand() event handler, or whatever it's called. Which doesn't seem to exist. I've searched to documentation, I've searched Google... I'm quite possibly mis-understanding Dojo's "publish/subscribe" event handling system, but I think that mainly because there doesn't seem to be any comprehensive documentation for it anywhere (like, where do I find out what events I can subscribe to?).
So, in the end, the best solution I can come up with is to add an onClick event handler (not a "Dojo" event, but a plain JavaScript event that Dojo knows nothing about) to the expando node of each Tree branch that re-formats the HTML inside the SPAN element of each leaf. Except... when that is called, the SPAN element still doesn't exist (sometimes - other times it's been cached, just to further confuse you). Therefore, I have the event handler set up a timer that periodically calls a function that checks to see if the relevant SPAN element has turned up yet before then re-formatting it.
// An event handler called whenever a "email title" tree node is expanded.
function formatTreeNode(nodeID) {
    if (dijit.byId(nodeID).getChildren().length != 0) {
        clearInterval(nodeUpdateIntervalID);
        messageBody = dijit.byId(nodeID).getChildren()[0].labelNode.innerHTML
        if (messageBody.indexOf("Message text:") == -1) {
            messageBody = messageBody.replace(/>/g, ">");
            messageBody = messageBody.replace(/</g, "<");
            messageBody = messageBody.replace(/&/g, "&");
            dijit.byId(nodeID).getChildren()[0].labelNode.innerHTML = "Message text:
"+messageBody+"
";
        }
    }
}

// An event handler called when a tree node has been set up - we changed the default fully-expanded to fully-collapsed.
function setupTree(theTree) {
    dijit.byId("tree-"+theTree).rootNode.collapse();

    messageNode = dijit.byId("tree-"+theTree).rootNode.getChildren();
    for (pl = 0; pl < messageNode.length; pl++) {
        messageNode[pl].collapse();
        messageNode[pl].expandoNode.onclick = eval("nodeUpdateIntervalID = setInterval(\"formatTreeNode('"+messageNode[pl].id+"')\",200); formatTreeNode('"+messageNode[pl].id+"');");
    }
}

The above has the feel of a truly horrible hack, and I feel sure I must have taken a wrong turn somewhere early on in my thought process. Can someone please tell me:

*

*The correct way to go about putting nicely-formatted text inside a Dojo/Dijit Tree control.

*The correct way to handle Dojo events, like where I can figure out what events are available for me to subscribe to.

*A better JavaScript library to use (can I do what I want to with JQuery and avoid the all-around-the-houses approach seen above?).

PS: If you're naming a software project, give thought to its name's uniqueness in Google - I'm sure searching for "Dojo" documentation in Google would be easier without all the martial arts results getting in the way.
PPS: Firefox spellchecker knows how to spell "Atwood", correcting me when I put two 'T's instead of one. Is Jeff just that famous now?

A: I assume that you followed the dijit.Tree and dojo.data in Dojo 1.1 tutorial which directed you to pass the data to the tree control using a data store. That had me banging my head of a brick wall for a while.
Its not really a great approach and the alternative is not really well documented. You need to create a use model instead. I have included an example below of a tree model that I created for displaying the structure of an LDAP directory.
You will find the default implementation of the model in your dojo distribution at ./dijit/_tree/model.js. The comments should help you understand the functions supported by the model.
The IDirectoryService class the code below are stubs for server-side Java POJOs generated by Direct Web Remoting (DWR). I highly recommend DWR if you going to be doing a lot of client-server interaction.

dojo.declare("LDAPDirectoryTreeModel", [ dijit.tree.model ], {
    getRoot : function(onItem) {
        IDirectoryService.getRoots( function(roots) {
            onItem(roots[0])
        });
    },

    mayHaveChildren : function(item) {
        return true;
    },

    getChildren : function(parentItem, onComplete) {
        IDirectoryService.getChildrenImpl(parentItem, onComplete);
    },

    getIdentity : function(item) {
        return item.dn;
    },

    getLabel : function(item) {
        return item.rdn;
    }
});

And here is an extract from the my JSP page where I created the model and used it to populate the tree control.

Objective: To identify clinical features that reliably differentiate individuals with cognitive impairment due to corticobasal degeneration (CBD) and Alzheimer disease (AD).
Methods: Clinical features were compared between individuals with autopsy-proven CBD (n = 17) and AD (n = 16). All individuals presented with prominent cognitive complaints and were evaluated annually with semistructured interviews, detailed neurologic examinations, and neuropsychological testing.
Results: Substantial overlap was observed between individuals with dementia due to CBD and AD concerning presenting complaints, median (range) duration of symptoms before assessment (CBD = 3.0 [0–5.0] years, AD = 2.5 [0–8.0] years; p = 0.96), and median (range) baseline dementia severity (Clinical Dementia Rating Sum of Boxes: CBD = 3.5 [0–12.0], AD = 4.25 [0.5–9.0], p = 0.49). Subsequent emergence of asymmetric motor/sensory signs, hyperreflexia, gait abnormalities, parkinsonism, falls, urinary incontinence, and extraocular movement abnormalities identified individuals with CBD, with ≥3 discriminating features detected in 80% of individuals within 3.1 years (95% confidence interval 2.9–3.3) of the initial assessment. Individuals with CBD exhibited accelerated worsening of illness severity and declines in episodic memory, executive functioning, and letter fluency. Semiquantitative pathologic assessment revealed prominent tau pathology within the frontal and parietal lobes of CBD cases. Comorbid AD neuropathologic change was present in 59% (10 of 17) of CBD cases but did not associate with the clinical phenotype, rate of dementia progression, or dementia duration.
Conclusions: CBD may mimic AD dementia early in its disease course. Interval screening for discriminating clinical features may improve antemortem diagnosis in individuals with CBD and prominent cognitive symptoms.

The Treaty of Rarotonga is the common name for the South Pacific Nuclear Free Zone Treaty, which formalises a nuclear-weapon-free zone in the South Pacific. The treaty bans the use, testing, and possession of nuclear weapons within the borders of the zone.

It was signed by the South Pacific nations of Australia, the Cook Islands, Fiji, Kiribati, Nauru, New Zealand, Niue, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu on the island of Rarotonga (where the capital of the Cook Islands is located) on 6 August 1985, came into force on 11 December 1986 with the 8th ratification, and has since been ratified by all of those states.

The Marshall Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia, and Palau are not party to the treaties but are eligible to become parties should they decide to join the treaty in the future.

Protocols binding other states
There are three protocols to the treaty, which have been signed by the five declared nuclear states, with the exception of Protocol 1 for China and Russia who have no territory in the Zone.

no manufacture, stationing or testing in their territories within the Zone
no use against the Parties to the Treaty, or against territories where Protocol 1 is in force
no testing within the Zone

In 1996 France and the United Kingdom signed and ratified the three protocols. The United States signed them the same year but has not ratified them. China signed and ratified protocols 2 and 3 in 1987. Russia has also ratified protocols 2 and 3 with reservations.

Scope of applicability

The treaty's different provisions apply variously to the Zone, to the territories within the Zone, or globally.

"South Pacific Nuclear Free Zone" means the area :
south of the Equator
north of the 60th parallel south (the northern limit of the Antarctic Treaty zone)
east of the 115th meridian east
west of the 115th meridian west (the western limit of the Treaty of Tlatelolco Latin American Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zone)
plus three projections north of the Equator to include the territory and territorial waters of Papua New Guinea, Nauru, and Kiribati,
but minus the northwest corner beyond Australian territorial waters and near Indonesia (and the Southeast Asian Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zone).

Several islands in the Indian Ocean also belong to Australia and are therefore part of the zone.

"Territory" means internal waters, territorial sea and archipelagic waters, the seabed and subsoil beneath, the land territory and the airspace above them.
It does not include international waters.
Article 2 says "Nothing in this Treaty shall prejudice or in any way affect the rights, or the exercise of the rights, of any State under international law with regard to freedom of the seas."

The Treaty is an agreement between nation-states and as such of course cannot apply to those who have not signed the treaty or protocols, for example, the four countries not signatories to the Non-Proliferation Treaty, who are all nuclear powers.

List of states and territories
The only territory north of the Equator that is part of the Zone is in Kiribati, the only state straddling the Equator.
Micronesia is outside the Zone except for Kiribati.
Melanesia is inside the Zone except for Western New Guinea (a part of Indonesia), which is in the Southeast Asian Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zone.
Polynesia is inside the Zone except for Easter Island, which is in the Latin American Nuclear-Weapon-Free Zone, the Polynesian outliers of Kapingamarangi and Nukuoro in Micronesia, Hawaii, American Samoa and several uninhabited United States Minor Outlying Islands.

Carrying of nuclear weapons within the zone
U.S. bomber aircraft have been visiting Australia since the early 1980s, and nuclear-capable B-52s and B-2s operate regularly out of northern Australia. When U.S. bombers visit Australia, the U.S. government does not tell the Australian government whether the aircraft are carrying nuclear weapons. In 2023, the Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong said the Australian Government "understand[s] and respect[s] the longstanding US policy of neither confirming or denying".

← Case Closed
The Little Atheist →
Conflict and Conscience
She took her stand. She paid a price.
To many she's both hero and symbol.
To others she's a bigot and law-breaker.
Kim Davis, the Kentucky clerk who refused, "under God's authority", to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, remained quietly defiant in the face of judicial threats. When she didn't back down, a judge had her remanded to jail indefinitely. Though she could have posted it, bail was denied.
Davis, a Christian who said she could not in good conscience violate her faith and God's law by signing the marriage licenses, sat in jail for nearly a week. It could have been longer, but the judge relented and released her. He warned her not to interfere with the issuing of marriage licenses to homosexuals.
Kim Davis is an elected official. She serves the public and is employed by the government. In the absence of federal statute and much of anything else except growing public support, the U.S. Supreme Court in June decided that gay marriage was a sacred constitutional right. After that, Davis' job description changed. She must now put her official imprimatur on an intimate – and suddenly legal – union she considers a sin.
Although signing marriage licenses is only a small fraction of her duties as a county clerk, to her this was a matter of conscience. It was also still part of her job as a government employee.
It was a conflict not easy to avoid or resolve.
For Kim Davis however, it wasn't so hard.
She refused to bow to the latest golden image of government-sanctioned political correctness and expanded perceived "rights". She wasn't thrown into a fiery furnace or a lion's den, just jail. But, like those ancient Hebrews, she stood her ground as an act of faithful obedience to God.
Not alone certainly, but still in a clear minority today.
Kenneth Upton, senior legal counsel to the gay lobby, was concerned that Kim would become a martyr to the cause of bigotry. Pointing to a photo of Davis in handcuffs, Upton said, "This is what the other side wants. This is a biblical story, to go to jail for your faith. We don't want to make her a martyr to the people who are like her [intolerant bigots?], who want to paint themselves as victims."
Kim Davis is an unlikely hero – or victim. She's a Democrat who has been married four times. When opponents railed at her hypocrisy, her answer was simply to say she's been changed by the power of God's grace. Not so hard for a Christian to grasp.
Ever since Peter and the apostles declared to an enraged authority, "We ought to obey God rather than men" (Acts 5:29, KJV), conscience and civil disobedience have been an important part of the "biblical story" and the history of Christianity. In the Old Testament, the Jews in exile offer an inspiring example of courageous and unswerving allegiance to divine law – and a willingness to pay the price for loyalty to a higher power.
Perhaps Kim Davis should resign as county clerk. Perhaps there can be no accommodation to her religious conscience. After all, she's a public employee and the law says gays can get married. So if signing their marriage licenses violates her conscience, then resigning is the only right thing to do.
After all, government and the law march inexorably forward. Society calls this progress. And individual conscience must submit to the inevitable. It must submit to power.
That's a popular point of view.
We get agitated and impatient with conscientious objectors.
The Supreme Court decides what the Constitution means. Of course, the Supreme Court isn't always right. History reveals its tortuous and contradictory legal path, especially on the matter of slavery.
Who knows what Jefferson and Madison might think of Kim Davis – or homosexual marriage as a constitutional right. It was Jefferson, after all, who suggested to his close friend that he draw up a carefully-worded list of specific rights that would safeguard the individual conscience against the encroaching power of the State. These first ten amendments to the Constitution became our Bill of Rights. Among these unalienable rights was the free exercise of religion.
Natural law, bequeathed by "Nature's God", was the foundation of our Constitution. Today, that foundation continues to crumble amidst a mocked obsolescence.
One thing is certain: our founders were wary of the government's power to deny any person's beliefs.
"No provision in our Constitution," wrote Jefferson in 1809, "ought to be dearer to man than that which protects the rights of conscience against the enterprises of the civil authority." These "rights of conscience", Jefferson argued, must never be submitted to civil rulers. "We are answerable for them to God."
Of individual conscience, Dr. Martin Luther King wrote:
"Cowardice asks the question, is it safe? Expediency asks the question, is it politic? Vanity asks the question, is it popular? But conscience asks the question, is it right?"
Kim Davis gave her answer.
Hundreds of thousands of Christian refugees fleeing Syria and other troubled lands for their very lives face that question daily.
And living in a time of escalating conflict between conscience and culture you and I must ask – and answer – that same question.
May God bless you and your family.

India cricket captain, Bollywood star announce birth of baby
NEW DELHI (AP) — Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma has given birth to a baby girl, her husband and captain of the country's national cricket team, Virat Kohli, said Monday, declaring that the couple was beyond blessed to start "this new chapter of our lives."
"We thank you all for your love, prayers and good wishes," Kohli wrote on Twitter.
The as-yet-unnamed baby — the couple's first child — arrived nearly three years after Sharma and Kohli married in a low-key ceremony in Italy in December 2017 after being in a relationship for several years.
Kohli, 32, is one of the world's top batsmen. He was with the national team in an ongoing tour to Australia but returned to India in December after taking paternity leave and missing the second, third and fourth matches. He has been by the side of his wife since then.
Sharma, 32, is one of the most successful and highest-paid actresses in Bollywood. She was last seen on the big screen in the 2018 film "Zero," and has also been working on content for major streaming platforms including Netflix.
The couple is extremely popular on social media and millions follow them across different platforms.
Shortly after the announcement, fans took to Twitter to celebrate the news. Bollywood celebrities and Indian cricketers congratulated the couple on social media.
Cricket and Bollywood are two of India's great national institutions.

Q: Use variable in find command I'm trying to create a simple script that deletes files based on the ending of thier names and the date.
I can't figure out how to do this.
This is how I do it:
DA='date +%d'
find /var/www/data/files/ -name "*#$DA*"

I want to find all files that ends on this pattern..  So today it would be #06
I also tried
find . -iname \*${MYVAR}\* -print

As suggested here:
http://www.commandlinefu.com/commands/view/6234/use-a-variable-in-a-find-command.-useful-in-scripting.
Without luck..
So can anyone help me use the find command searching for a var?
Thanks a lot!

A: find . -iname "*$(date +%d)*" -print

This should do the trick. With $() You can get the output of a command as an argument to another command.

Clevedon firm expands its business
James Griffin at Yeates. - Credit: Archant
A Clevedon storage firm has expanded its premises in a bid to attract more business.
Yeates, which is based at Kenn Business Park, has added an extra 40 units to its site, increasing its overall total to 170.
The family firm has been around for more than a century and moved from Meadow Road in 2001 and managing director James Griffin said the upgrade will help Yeates grow more in the future.
He said: "We have grown rapidly over recent years and we are delighted we can provide more quality self storage for local customers.
"The new storage rooms come in a variety of sizes and also for the first time we can offer lockers which are great for storing smaller amounts.
"This latest fit out is a welcome addition to our existing facility."


What does 2007 hold for NetBeans and Java? We have asked six NetBeans experts to look ahead and make predictions for 2007. Our subjects--two Evangelists, an Architect, an Editor, a Writer and a Community Manager--have different ideas on what they think is coming up on the horizon this year for NetBeans and the field of Java.
Read the predictions and then vote on the forecast you most agree with!
EJB3 and the Java Persistence API will gain even more momentum in 2007.
There are two things that will help drive this. First, more and more of the application servers will release versions that are compatible with Java EE 5. Second, the tools will continue to improve. To take just one example: as tool support for the Seam framework continues to improve, that will drive Seam adoption which in turn will help drive EJB3 adoption.
The biggest change in the Java world last year, and maybe also the IT market, was Java going open-source. I saw the momentum-there were thousands of people waiting for this to happen. The open-sourcing is likely to continue next year and I am really eager to see the outcome.
I expect that Java will be adopted by the Linux community and we will see a lot of Linux applications written in Java. I hope Java will be part of standard Linux distributions. I am convinced that the desktop integration of Java will get much better due to contribution of Linux communities. Java adoption is going to rise in unimaginable ways. I really cannot expect anything else more important for 2007 in the IT world than the results of open-sourcing Java.
2007 will be a year that Java and Sun will do a large leap in community participation.
Last year, Sun released many of its software solutions as open-source. We not only saw the announcement of the full Java platform (JME, JSE and JEE) to become open-source under the most recognized license, but also we had the final versions of Java SE 6 and Java EE 5, and both included many technologies and ideas that were born on the open-source community. All that activity will bring a strong positive reflection on the relationship between Sun and the developer community in 2007. Instead of investing efforts to donate code, Sun will invest in becoming a strong participant in the worldwide open-source community.
Scripting support in NetBeans is going to open the IDE to a whole bunch of new communities.
NetBeans will again gain market share in year 2007.
NetBeans adoption has been accelerating during last two years and I predict that this trend will continue. The main reason for increased adoption will be features introduced in NetBeans 6.0 which will focus on increasing developer productivity. There will be many innovative features for desktop Java, support for scripting languages and much more.
With the open-sourcing of Sun's Java SE implementation, Java desktop APIs will increase in quality, performance and tool support.
Community collaboration will bring more eyes and hands around the core Java APIs. This will help solve deficiencies found in less-used but highly valued Java technologies such as Swing.
Vote for the prediction you agree with!
Poll closed. Results will be posted February 14th.


Next time you take a Walmart trip, be on the lookout for some technological looking employees. Dozens of Walmarts have started using robots in their stores.
The robots perform a variety of services, including retrieving customer's items, cleaning the floors, scanning shelves, and monitoring items as they move along a conveyor belt.
The robots can reportedly scan grocery shelves three times as fast as people can, and they can check for out-of-stock items, mislabeled shelf tags, and incorrect prices.
Walmart is calling these 'smart sidekicks' and that they are! They will help free up employees so they can focus on helping customers.

Nationally and globally, our society is suffering from a painkiller addiction (the so-called "opioid epidemic") that itself can be treated with acupuncture, in addition to treating the pain itself.
Pain causes us not only physical, but emotional distress and, at times, the reverse is also true. I have seen patients' lives completely transformed by relieving of them of their pain and that has served as incredible motivation to learn to do it better. Beyond treating the pain, freeing up tension in musculoskeletal tissues allows underlying systems to work better, too.
Acupuncture is physical medicine. "Physical medicine" refers to the branch of medicine that treats biomechanical disorders and injuries. It includes diagnosis and prevention in addition to treating the pain or injury itself. My commitment to you is to maintain and refine my knowledge of anatomy, muscle functionality, exercise physiology (through the lens of sports acupuncture training), the effects of acupuncture and electro-acupuncture on the neuroendocrine system, classical Chinese medical theory. Together these aspects of health and healing have greatly enhanced the way I practice of acupuncture.
Electro-acupuncture - Ash has training in advanced techniques using electronic stimulation of acupuncture points and channels to increase the efficacy of treatments when applicable and speed healing times.
Cupping (myofascial decompression) - this technique has been used for centuries in East Asian medicine and has recently caught on with many allied health professions (massage, chiropractic, physical therapy, etc.). It has been shown to decrease mechanical connective tissue changes following inflammation or trauma, decrease myofascial dysfunction, scar adhesions, scar tissue; and decrease myofascial syndromes such as faulty patterning due to hypertonic muscles.
Gua Sha - a healing technique of traditional East Asian medicine, defined as instrument-assisted unidirectional press-stroking of a lubricated area of the body surface to intentionally create transitory therapeutic peticheae (called "sha") representing extravasation of blood in the subcutis. Modern research shows Gua Sha produces an immuno-protective and anti-inflammatory effect.
Point injection therapy (PIT) - The injection of saline or other remedies improves the quality of the interstitial fluid allowing nutrient and waste product transfer between the cells and bloodstream to occur efficiently again thus facilitating healing.
Point Injection Therapy training - in formal masters program, additional training in 2016.
Most importantly, pursuing deeper knowledge of classical acupuncture via study of the Neijing Suwen (c.200BCE) led me to the conclusion that the earliest acupuncture physicians were simply way, way ahead of their time. There is an incredible amount of overlap in the understanding of anatomy between, for example, the ancient Neijing Suwen (the original acupuncture text) and the recent work in the field of fascial medicine. It's astonishing to see the cutting edge field of fascia research coming to the same conclusions acupuncturists discovered so long ago!
Sports acupuncture is another area of particular interest to me and falls under the general category of orthopedics. In 2011, I completed a Acupuncture Sports Medicine Apprenticeship with Whitfield Reaves and am now one of his assistants. I am also committed to ongoing study of modern anatomy and physiology including myofascial planes, motor points and trigger points.
The goals of sports acupuncture treatment are simple: increase performance and decrease injury rehabilitation time. In my practice I strive to always consider the underlying health and habits of the individual so I may treat the person and not just the injury. By supporting an individual on the root level--one's basic tendencies in health and living--it is my belief that all aspects of that patient will improve.
Depending on the athlete's presentation the focus of treatment may be on an injury itself, balancing opposing muscle groups or injury prevention. Typically a patient will be seen one to two times per week in the injury phase and somewhat less frequently for maintenance and performance enhancement.

Black and White is a 1999 American film directed by James Toback and starring Robert Downey Jr., Gaby Hoffmann, Allan Houston, Jared Leto, Scott Caan, Claudia Schiffer, Brooke Shields, Bijou Phillips and members of the Wu-Tang Clan (Raekwon, Method Man, Ghostface Killah, Oli "Power" Grant, Masta Killa, Bruce Lamar Mayfield "Chip Banks" and Inspectah Deck) and Onyx (Fredro Starr and Sticky Fingaz). The film also features Ben Stiller as a sleazy police detective, as well as Mike Tyson playing himself and Michael B. Jordan in his film debut. It had its first showing at the Telluride Film Festival on September 4, 1999, followed by a second screening at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 15, 1999. It had its theatrical release in the United States on April 5, 2000.

Plot
Rich Bower (Power) is a mover and shaker in the world of rap music (he's involved with a number of other licit and illicit business ventures as well), and his apartment is a favored meeting place for musicians, hangers-on, and hipsters who want to seem cool, including a gang of white kids who want to be on the inside of what they consider the coolest scene of the day. Sam (Shields), a filmmaker, is making a documentary about Rich and his circle, with the help of her husband Terry (Downey), a homosexual who doesn't feel at home in this milieu.

Dean (Houston) is Rich's black friend since childhood and a skilled college basketball player. He is offered a deal by a bookmaker, Mark (Stiller) to throw a game for a price. Dean takes the money against his better judgment, and he soon realizes how much of a mistake he made when Mark turns out to be a cop hoping to dig up dirt on Rich. Rich in turn discovers that Dean might be forced to tell what he knows to stay out of jail, and he decides that Dean has to be killed; however, rather than murder his friend himself, Rich asks one of the white kids who hangs out with him, who seems especially eager to prove himself, to do it for him. The kid, however, is actually the son of the District Attorney.

Reception
Review aggregate Rotten Tomatoes reports that 38% of critics have given the film a positive review based on 82 reviews; the critical consensus states, "The atmosphere is affecting, and the story, at times, is compelling, but with a lean script and limp direction, Black and White doesn't add up to much."

Roger Ebert gave the film three out of four stars.

In the United States, Black and White grossed $5,241,315 in its four-week release.

A chain of dominantly basaltic cinder cones erupted along two NE-SW-trending fissures at the head of Puyuhuapi fjord comprise the Volcanes de Puyuhuapi. The larger group of four cones lies on the W side of the fjord and fed lava flows that traveled SE to the sea. The second lineament formed a chain of four smaller cones between the head of the fjord and Lake Risopatrón to the N. The two fractures are related to the regional Liquiñe-Ofqui fault zone. The cinder cones are extremely well preserved, suggesting a very young age.

Битва при Ровине — сражение 17 мая 1395 года (по другим сведениям — 10 октября 1394 года) между вторгшейся в Валахию 40-тысячной турецкой армией под предводительством султана Баязида I и 10-тысячным валашским войском, руководимым господарём Мирчей Старым. На стороне турок выступали также сербские отряды вассальных туркам княжеств под предводительством князя Стефана Лазаревича, Константин Деянович, Константин Балшич и кралевича Марко общей численностью в 8 тысяч человек.

Битва
Против вторгшейся в 1394 году в Валахию многотысячной турецкой армии у господаря Мирчи в открытом бою имелось мало шансов для победы, поэтому он применил тактику партизанской войны, нападая на небольшие отряды османов, уничтожая их обозы, стараясь лишить турок продовольствия. После подобных длительных и изматывающих военных действий противники встретились для решающего сражения близ Ровине, в долине реки Арджеш, одного из притоков Дуная. Согласно преданию, перед началом сражения господарь Мирча Старый отправил к султану парламентёра, предложив Баязиду отступить за Дунай, пообещав в свою очередь беспрепятственно пропустить турок. Однако султан был настроен на продолжение войны.

Местность в районе сражения оказалась лесистой и болотистой, что помешало туркам в полной мере воспользоваться своим численным преимуществом и наиболее выгодно разместить свои отряды. Точное течение битвы не совсем прояснено, однако известно, что важную роль в нём сыграли активные действия отрядов валашских лучников, буквально расстрелявших наступающие линии турок. Затем на турок обрушился удар валашской кавалерии, после чего османы смешали ряды и отступили, уйдя позднее за Дунай. Значительные потери понесли обе стороны, в том числе и воевавшие на стороне турок сербы. Так, согласно преданию, в битве при Ровине погиб сербский князь, впоследствии известный персонаж балканского фольклора Марко-кралевич. В этой битве, которая, вероятно, произошла в валашском лесу, погиб и Константин Деянович, внуком которого был последний византийский император Константин XI Палеолог. Константин Деянович также является прапрадедом первого русского царя Ивана Грозного.

Эпическое описание битвы при Ровине и победы в ней валашских войск оставил в своей «Третьей эпистоле» великий румынский поэт Михай Эминеску.

Pingpe Jungle Resort is located on the Upper Suriname River opposite of the Saramaccan village called Pingpe (commonly known as 'Pempe'). The resort is small built and equipped with all basic facilities. From the resort are you directly involved in the life of the Saramaccan tribe that lives at the River.
In the resort you will see how the Saramaccaners are living. They travel in their wooden canoes, do their laundry in the river and you can hear them welcoming you. Meanwhile, you will fully enjoy the beautiful nature: the ever-changing light over the trees on the riverbank, the palm trees on the island, the noise of the sula (small waterfall) and the flying birds. In the resort and in the village you will be greeted by the residents of Pingpe, who welcome you and make you feel at home and quickly learn your first Saramaccaans words (native tribal language).
The resort was built by Kenpris Siesa (better known as/alias Chapeau), coming from the village Pingpe itself. Having worked for years as a guide for a large tour operator company, Chapeau was eager to show the tourists the beautiful surroundings of his village and the interior. At the request of the tribal Chief and the local women's organization, Chapeau built his own resort, Jungle Resort Pingpe, to attract tourists and let them experience the beauty of the interior and the culture of the tribe. In this manner they would get exposed to new cultures and at the same time create employment opportunities for the youth. In addition, they aimed to reduce the migration of young persons to the city. As such, Jungle Resort Pingpe employs locals for all its duties.

2) The fashionista wore a Saint Laurent black sequin jumpsuit with matching jacket and the exaggerated shoulders were so "Gaga." A black cowboy hat with shimmering tassels completed the look and worked as a great dance prop.

The Guardian VIP is a system that can be quickly installed in situ to protect travelling VIPs.
Wireless video camera nodes are designed to blend in with the surrounding environment, disguised as items commonly found in hotels and apartments.
Camera nodes link back to the operator's Base Station and laptop, where all video feeds can be monitored on a video player software application.
At the core of the system is a digital Mesh radio network, which allows encoded video to be exchanged between the camera nodes in a fluid and self-healing method.
The system also records video and raises alarms in the event of motion or light level changes. Alarm alerts form part of the video player application, which is able to display video feeds from up to eight camera nodes.
The system also features VIP panic buttons. Once a VIP presses a panic button it raises a high priority alarm with the operator.
There is also the facility to integrate the hotel's in-house CCTV surveillance into the system.
All aspects can be run on battery power, with the operator's Base Station supporting battery charging.
The entire system packs away into a single flight case.
A selection of different camera concealments are available on request.

McKinsey supports Facebook with TechPrep initiative
The lack of diversity within the US tech industry is a well-known phenomenon, which according to research has a negative impact on economy and society. In a bid to support female Latino and African-Americans enter into the tech industry, McKinsey & Company and Facebook have launched the TechPrep initiative. The project aims to support parents, teachers and children from the diversely different groups with the resources needed to provide the group with the skills needed to enter into the tech industry.
The technology industry in the US tends to be predominantly dominated by white males, and the sector has for some time been struggling with diversity within its ranks. The ethical issue is also quickly becoming an economic one. By 2020, a million open programming jobs with no one to fill them may arise in the US. Opening up the industry to a more diverse background of equally talented individuals has the potential to improve the lives of a more diverse group with stable employment opportunities, as well as fill the expected gap between supply and demand.
Achieving parity within the tech industry is however, not a straight forward process. Different barriers push out different major social groups, including women and girls, Latinos, and African-Americans. As McKinsey & Company Partner Lareina Yee remarks, "The barriers are not one-size-fits-all."
One of the issues faced by African-Americans and Latinos particularly is that there is a general lack of awareness of computer science due to a glut in access to both people and computer science programmes. The lot for women and girls starts early, as only 24% are taking computer science at school, compared to 35% of boys. Girls and women tend to be less confident about their computer prowess; 33% of women and girls claim to be good at working with computers, compared to 50% of men and boys. "We have an enormous way to go for girls and underserved populations, but I think the awareness has improved. It's starting to become more transparent that we don't have a true representation of the population in these professions," says Yee. Further issues faced by children relate to intergenerational issues. Parents often do not know how to encourage their children with regard to perusing computer science: 77% of parents say that they do not know how to help their children in this respect at all. Parents without college education or on low incomes tend to be even less encouraging to their children, the number increasing to 83% for these groups.
Given the challenges faced by the industry to improve diversity within the ranks, McKinsey & Company – with a long history of supporting diversity improvement – joined Facebook to support it in the development and launch of the company's TechPrep initiative. The initiative aims to provide a wide range of resources specifically for different segments of those whom are underserved. The initiative targets parents, teachers and children, providing them with the resources they need through an online platform. The TechPrep website features resources, profiles, and videos in English and Spanish to spark interest, inform, and inspire.
The development of the programme took several months and had a team from McKinsey – led by Susan Colby, James Manyika, Helen Ma, Kelsey Robinson, and Lareina Yee – work with a team from Facebook. The team researched ways in which they can improve the talent pipeline of young people of the disadvantaged groups and women in tech, by bringing together members with expertise in social-science research, consumer marketing, user experience, technology, and education. "The lack of diversity in most tech organisations—and many organisations in general—means that we're not getting the benefit of the full talent pool. And for these young people, the opportunities that careers in tech bring are tremendous," says Colby.
"Many of us are parents who are trying to encourage our kids too. Even though I'm in this field, I learned a ton," explains Yee. She reflects that the insight gleaned from the team's research into Minecraft, which can be seen as an implicit programming training for children, was a happy surprise. Robinson also found the process insightful, remarking that, "I never even considered computer science as a career, so it's been really interesting to think about why I didn't pursue it. Others on the team with technical backgrounds felt a personal commitment to this cause. I think this is one of the most meaningful projects that the team has done."
The team has wider goals than just the current initiative, and while the firm will continue to support Facebook, Manyika explains that "The research is not exclusive to Facebook. In fact from day one the goal has been to create an open platform and pipeline (hence the age range) that benefits the sector as a whole and society at large. So colleagues are encouraged to draw on this research and leverage it with their own clients and others in the tech community."
Female advancement in business
Last month McKinsey launched another initiative aimed at advancing the position of women, named 'Next Generation Women Leaders Award', which provides talented women in Europe, the Middle East and Africa the opportunity to apply for a scholarship programme. The firm has for years shed light on the cost of unequal employment opportunities to society – according to its latest report parity with men could add up to $28 trillion extra to world GDP by 2025, with a more achievable 'best-in-region' practice likely to add $12 trillion.
When it comes to specifically tech skills, other consulting firms too are providing an active contribution to closing the skills and opportunity gap. Accenture, for instance, supports both the Girl Geeks Campus as well as the Girls Who Code, and last week globally embraced the Hour of Code campaign.

Parenting, for me, is complicated by two races, two cultures, one step kid, two adopted foster kids, two birth kids…and a partridge in a pear tree. Modern blended and mixed families like mine know that all too often conventional parenting wisdom just doesn't apply to our complicated real-world situations. Honestly, I've found that that most "Parenting 101" adages fit just about as well as my pre-pregnancy jeans. Read more of this article I wrote in 2012 here.


In episode 77 I chat with Harris Goldberg. Harris is a director, writer and producer. He co-wrote the comedy Deuce Bigolow: Male Gigalo, and in 2007 wrote and directed the film NUMB, inspired by his own experiences of mental health.
I had an interesting chat with Harris about many topics. We talked about using comedy as a defence mechanism, ERP, ERP advice, fear of death, depersonalization disorder, OCD triggering depersonalization, why do I have OCD vs how do I recover from it?, pushing against anxiety with ERP, and how the uncertainty of Hollywood can fuel OCD. We also discuss why Harris writes himself into his films, lifestyle changes, daily yoga, nutrition, guilt, why living a pure kind of existence was a compulsion, opening up about mental health in Hollywood, why the media gets OCD so wrong and the importance of being kind to yourself. Enjoy!
Mark Freeman on the podcast – Episode 1, episode 2, episode 3.
Really enjoyed this episode. Found Harris to be very authentic and pleasing to listen to. Interesting, but not surprising, to hear about the mental illness in Hollywood and the large number of high profile actors/film makers who hit lows and stay there. Another healthy reminder that Hollywood, money, fame, etc will not heal poor mental health and can, quite often, only make it worse. What you see in the media is a survivorship bias: The few who succeed, albeit temporarily (they might be broke next week). And for every "successful" Hollywood profile in the media, there are millions who fail to get there. It seems that for most people, such a pursuit is folly, for there doesn't seem to be much upside to me?
I think more Celebrity's need to know what OCD is.
This was a really fabulous episode – enjoyed every minute of it. I love to hear from guests who know what OCD is from personal experience.

A Rent the Runway Pop-Up Shop Just Debuted in West Village
By West Village By West Village | December 14, 2021 | Style & Beauty Sponsored Post
Fellow bargain hunters, it's our time to shine. Last month, we rejoiced when TheRealReal opened its doors on Knox. Now, Dallas has yet another destination for pre-loved pieces from luxury brands. Through the end of May, Rent The Runway is taking over a blush-pink storefront in West Village, where you can shop a plethora of designer goods for a fraction of their original prices.
The Rent The Runway concept allows customers to borrow designer pieces for a fraction of their retail price, then mail them back. No dry cleaning necessary. Some shoppers rent a piece for a special event and return it quickly. Others opt for a membership, which allows them to borrow a certain number of items at a time without a rush to return them. Eventually, apparel and accessories are pulled from the brand's available stock to make room for next season's styles. These pieces can then be purchased, not rented, on the company's site at deep discounts. Now, at the West Village pop-up, you can browse these gems in person.
The pop-up includes hundreds of pieces of designer clothing, handbags, and accessories. Some of it is for sale at up to 90 percent off their original prices. Expect to see brands like AllSaints, Rag & Bone, Loeffler Randall, 31. Phillip Lim, Rebecca Minkoff, and Annie Bing.
The pop-up was organized by Leap, a startup based in Chicago that helps online brands experiment with in-person retail while eliminating the financial risks of opening a brick-and-mortar on their own. Brands can choose to open a long-term storefront or a temporary one, and from there, the company's full-service platform handles everything: scouting locations, designing the space, handling installations, and hiring sales staff. In addition to Rent The Runway, Leap's notable clientele includes Something Navy, Frank and Oak, KOIO, and Birdies.
The Rent The Runway pop-up will open December 3, 2021 and run thru December 31, 2021.

The August 2014 issue has a feature on designer Jill Finley, and her project instructions for the "Fresh View" quilt. This is the only place the pattern is currently available.
The designer feature begins on page 18. The Fresh View project begins on page 54.


We're seeing Amazon's Alexa all over CES this year, with the virtual assistant integrated in everything from televisions to lamps to smoke detectors. One of the latest Alexa-enabled device is the LG's Smart InstaView Refrigerator—and while you may question the need for a smart fridge in your home, the Smart InstaView is a hyper-intelligent kitchen helper with a lot of convenience features.
The refrigerator features a massive 29" touchscreen which helps you keep tabs on your food and on your family. Two taps on the screen lets you peer inside the fridge without opening the door—and you can do the same remotely from your smartphone, so you're never stuck at the grocery store trying to remember if you're out of milk. You can add notes indicating what's inside (so there are no more mystery leftovers) and list expiration dates, which the fridge will remind you about.
It also acts as a message board: family members can write notes or make to-do lists right on the screen. Since the kitchen is often the busiest room in the home, this makes it an ideal hub for a busy family to keep up with one another. The whole thing is powered by the same WebOS operating system that powers LG's TVs—it's a solid system on their televisions, and it makes for a solid system on this fridge, too.
But Alexa is a standout here, because the voice assistant is a real asset in the kitchen. It can search for recipes, order groceries (at least those available on Amazon), set cooking timers, add to your shopping list—all hands-free, so it won't interrupt your cooking. Beyond cooking, Alexa has a host of useful features—over 6,000 skills—letting you control smart home devices, play music and more. All you have to do is ask.
It's a relatively similar featureset to Samsung's Family Hub line of smart refrigerators, so your preference of smart fridge may come down to which interface you like better and whether you want Alexa.

With attention-grabbing sleeping city worker story, Mammoliti back to his old habits
By: Metro Published on Fri Oct 18 2013
Because he's known for saying and doing outlandish things, Coun. Giorgio Mammoliti has played a useful role for Mayor Rob Ford throughout most of this political term: the sideshow.
Whether he's starting up a Facebook group to defend the Ford administration, railing on about the need for a magic subway-funding casino boat or continuing his fight for the world's largest flagpole, he's the guy who tends to distract attention away from Ford when negative stories or scandals start to pile up.
After jumping off the Ford bandwagon for a while, Mammoliti was back at it this week, dangling a picture of a possibly sleeping city employee like it was the scoop of the century. In reality, Mammoliti's photo was the definition of a non-story. Stacked up next to the fallout from the subway vote, the mayor's robocalls and whatever it is that's going on with Ford's "straight as an arrow" friends, a grainy shot of a person with their head down seems hardly worth thinking about.
But it worked. With his tale of a sleepy employee, Mammoliti was again pretty successful in redirecting the city hall narrative.
We need to stop falling for this.
The story Mammoliti was telling this time was particularly egregious given that it followed a similar story about a sleeping TTC employee from 2010. In that case, though, after the talk radio outrage about lazy government employees, it turned out the employee was suffering from a health issue. He died just months later. It should have been a cautionary tale for those who attempt to embarrass employees for cheap political points.
I'm not saying that sleeping on the job is ever OK, but it's not something that should be hashed out in the media, especially given the real possibility that there could be a health issue. If Mammoliti was really concerned about the work performance of a city employee, he should have brought that up with the employee's manager or supervisor — in private.
Nothing is gained from making it into a media spectacle. Except, of course, for the fact that the spectacle makes for a good distraction.
But on the upside, at least this distraction story kind of backfired on Ford. The mayor's attempts to shoehorn himself into the proceedings with trumped-up anger and threats to contract out the city's recreation programs were eclipsed by those who pointed out that the mayor himself often doesn't appear at city hall for long stretches (and often not before noon) and never provides a freely-available accounting of his whereabouts.
Call it the silver lining to a very distracting cloud.

Delirium is a project conducted under the course "In Between", a teaching program based on artistic development work, taught by Professor Charles Michalsen and Torkell Bernsen from the Faculty of KMD.
This project is inspired by the optical illusions, creating elastic spaces, and invites the viewer to immerse himself in the experience and identity that is in the design. Use of simple, common and available materials. The main stage is the library of KMD.

Do you have a journalctl error when this is happening?
every time, no idea how to link it to this (or any other) bug report.
another way that systemd is broken, I guess?
I'm going to try disabling Night Mode.
C code using something such as destroy(), dispose(), or remove() vfuncs.

something such as destroy(), dispose(), or remove() vfuncs.
Managed to reproduce the crash by launching gnome-tweaks.
Here is the log from just before the crash to after logging back in.

We just received word from the folks at the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance that the main event has been moved to Saturday due to impending weather. Along with this, the RM Sotheby's auction will be moving to Friday, March 9.
Even in the best case scenario, the forecast for Sunday's scheduled Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance includes rain and lots of it. With a strong chance of heavy precipitation forecast for Sunday and a sunshine-filled Saturday in the mix, The Amelia Concours team has moved Sunday's award-winning Concours to Saturday. The Concours show will now coincide with Saturday's Cars & Coffee at the Concours presented by Heacock Classic Insurance.
Saturday evening's Gala is unchanged.
