Notre-Dame de La Salette est le nom sous lequel les catholiques désignent la Vierge Marie telle qu'elle est apparue à deux enfants (Mélanie Calvat et Maximin Giraud) le  en haut du village de La Salette-Fallavaux, près de Corps, en France, dans le département de l'Isère. Cette apparition mariale, reconnue officiellement par l'Église catholique, a entraîné une dévotion à la Vierge Marie sous l'appellation . Plusieurs églises et sanctuaires de par le monde lui sont consacrés.

Notre-Dame de La Salette est aussi le vocable sous lequel est désigné le sanctuaire marial qui a été édifié sur les lieux de l'apparition, dans la montagne au-dessus de la commune de Corps (Isère).

L'apparition

Historique

Le samedi , aux environs de , sur une montagne proche du village de La Salette-Fallavaux, deux jeunes bergers, Mélanie Calvat, âgée d'un peu moins de , et Maximin Giraud, âgé de , voient apparaître dans une lumière resplendissante une  en pleurs qui s'adresse à eux. Le soir, ils en parlent à leurs maîtres. La veuve Pra (dite veuve Caron), maîtresse de Mélanie, se dit d'avis qu'ils ont vu la Sainte Vierge et on engage les enfants à tout raconter au curé de La Salette. Ils le font le lendemain dimanche au matin. Le curé pleure d'émotion, prend des notes et, de nouveau en larmes, parle du fait dans son prône.

Reconnaissance officielle

L'évêque de Grenoble,  Bruillard, une fois informé des événements, fait ouvrir une enquête canonique. Après conclusion de l'enquête, il publie le  un texte destiné à être lu dans toutes les paroisses du diocèse où il proclame l'authenticité de l'apparition.

En 1855,  Jacques Ginoulhiac, évêque de Grenoble, après une nouvelle enquête confirme la décision de son prédécesseur. En 1879 l'église du sanctuaire est officiellement consacrée, et elle est promue au rang de basilique mineure.

La Congrégation pour le culte divin publie le  un décret inscrivant la célébration de la Vierge Marie sous le titre de  dans le propre de France, au 19 septembre, à titre de mémoire facultative.

Le message spirituel

D'après la lecture de l'Église catholique du message de la Vierge Marie rapporté par les enfants, le message spirituel laissé par Notre-Dame de La Salette, est un message d'espérance. L'Église souligne que dans ce message, la Vierge rappelle qu'elle intercède continuellement pour les hommes auprès de son fils, qu'elle compatit aux épreuves de ses enfants et souffre avec eux. Les paroles de la Vierge montrent également un souci tant spirituel que des biens matériels (la nourriture) de son peuple, et des conséquences de la famine à venir.

Dans son invitation à la prière, Marie propose aux enfants le Notre Père et le Je vous salue, Marie. Les missionnaires de Notre-Dame de la Salette (fondés à la suite des apparitions) ont pour mission . L'Église affirme que  a donné naissance à , qui se poursuit aujourd'hui encore.

Notoriété et influence religieuse

Avant même la construction du sanctuaire, en 1848, l'évêque autorise la création de la confrérie , dont la dévotion est liée au message de la Vierge à La Salette.

Le sanctuaire de la Salette

La première pierre d'une grande église est solennellement posée sur la montagne de La Salette, le , devant une grande assemblée de fidèles. Cette église sera plus tard promue au rang de basilique. Lors de la construction de l'église, une congrégation (les missionnaires de Notre-Dame de la Salette) est instituée afin de desservir le futur sanctuaire. Depuis sa construction, le sanctuaire n'a cessé d'être agrandi. On dénombre environ  par an dans le sanctuaire, venant de toute la France et de l'étranger.

Les missionnaires de Notre-Dame de la Salette

Les missionnaires de Notre-Dame de la Salette constituent une congrégation cléricale de droit pontifical. Elle a été créée par  de Bruillard le  en même temps qu'il a décidé de construire un sanctuaire marial sur le lieu de l'apparition. La congrégation s'organise peu à peu autour du sanctuaire, elle est reconnue par le pape Léon XIII en 1879, et ses constitutions sont définitivement approuvées par Pie X en 1909.

En 1930, naît la congrégation des Sœurs Missionnaires de Notre Dame de La Salette, et en 1962, cette congrégation féminine est officiellement rattachée à la branche masculine des (pères) missionnaires de Notre-Dame de la Salette. À partir de 2006, l'intégration de laïcs dans l'ordre se structure et s'organise : on parle alors de  suivant un programme de rencontres et de formations, dans une .

Cette congrégation, originellement destinée à accueillir les pèlerins dans le sanctuaire de La Salette, est aujourd'hui présente dans le monde entier, et diffuse le message et la dévotion à Notre-Dame de La Salette. La congrégation est présente sur tous les continents :
 Europe : France, Suisse, Italie, République tchèque, Slovaquie, Pologne
 Afrique : Angola, Madagascar, Algérie
 Asie : Inde, Philippines
 Amérique : États-Unis, Canada

Dans le reste du monde

Si le sanctuaire de Notre Dame de La Salette est devenu  dans le Dauphiné, attirant des pèlerins et touristes du monde entier, il existe aussi de nombreux lieux de culte dans le reste du pays et dans le monde.

De grands exemples de sanctuaires ou d'églises dédiées à la Vierge de la Salette existent autour du monde :
 le sanctuaire de La Salette à Oliveira de Azeméis au Portugal ;
 l'église de "Nuestra Señora de la Saleta" à Alcorcón (Madrid) ;
 le grand sanctuaire marial de La Salette dans le diocèse d'Imus aux Philippines ;

On behalf of Johnson & Johnson posted in Juvenile Crimes on Thursday, October 1, 2015.
It is not unusual for young people to test boundaries. In fact, acting boldly can provide a young person with very valuable learning experiences. However, problems can arise when bold behavior runs afoul of the law. The fact is that should a minor go too far and get into serious legal jeopardy, he or she could face very negative long-term consequences.
Once a minor is taken into custody, police have some leeway regarding the manner in which to handle the case. The police may simply issue the minor a warning. Or the minor may receive a warning and be released into the custody of his or her parents or guardians. Finally, the minor may be retained in custody and referred to an officer of the juvenile court.
If the minor is referred to an officer of the juvenile court, the officer will determine if the case should be handled formally or informally. Formal charges involve going to trial. But informal charges are handled off the record.
Certainly, it is a better deal for the minor if the case is handled off the record. But there are numerous factors that can come into play before that decision is made. For example, the juvenile court officer and the prosecutor will look at the severity of the alleged crime as well as the minor's prior record. And even if it is decided the case should be dealt with in an informal manner, the minor will still likely have to appear before a judge.
Another important factor that can determine if a case can be handled off the record is if the minor has legal representation. If your child should ever be arrested, it is very important that the matter be addressed quickly and decisively. An experienced juvenile crimes attorney may be able to act on your child's behalf to help protect his or her future prospects.


The Illinois Attorney General recently released a "2014 Safe Shopping Guide" to help keep consumers safe as they prepare for this holiday season. Significantly more gifts are purchased around this time of year than other season.
The list provides shoppers with an updated list of hazardous children's toys, including pictures and detailed descriptions of over 100 children's products that were recalled throughout 2014.
This year the guide also cautions consumers about the possibility for identity theft. Due to recent breaches in data security with major national retailers, such as Target and Michaels, buyers are urged to be vigilant when entering their billing information or using debit or credit cards online.
The shopping guide provides several examples of how to keep accounts secure and also provides information on what to do if a person believes their identity has been stolen.
For more information, or to see a full copy of the "2014 Safe Shopping Guide," please visit the Illinois Attorney General's website.

Miekichi Suzuki (japonais , Suzuki Miekichi;  -  à Hiroshima) est un auteur japonais de romans et livres pour la jeunesse. Il passe pour le fondateur du genre au Japon.

Biographie
Après ses études de littérature anglaise à l'université impériale de Tokyo, Suzuki travaille comme professeur de collège et écrit des romans en amateur. Il sent ses talents de romancier mais les juge insuffisants et abandonne la littérature en 1915.
C'est grâce à sa fille, qu'il commence à écrire des livres pour enfants. En 1918, il publie la revue Akai Tori (, « l'Oiseau rouge ») et demande à de célèbres écrivains d'écrire pour le magazine. Quelques œuvres remarquables d'auteurs bien connus de l'ère Taishō comme Akutagawa Ryūnosuke, Arishima Takeo () ou Hakushū Kitahara () paraissent dans ce magazine, et le genre de la littérature pour enfants commence à être reconnu comme une forme d'art.

Suzuki Miekichi meurt en 1936 à l'âge de 54 ans des suites d'un cancer des poumons. Avec sa mort, son magazine cesse sa publication après 196 numéros.

Prix
Depuis 1948, douzième anniversaire de la mort de Suzuki, le prix Meikichi Suzuki est décerné à des histoires remarquables, des poèmes et des chansons pour enfants.

Monument souvenir
Dans le parc de la paix de Hiroshima, entre de nombreuses stèles commémoratives et des monuments pour commémorer le bombardement atomique d'Hiroshima le , se trouve au bord du fleuve, directement en face du dôme de Genbaku, un mémorial dédié à Suzuki Miekichi. Achevé en 1964, il est dû à l'artiste et sculpteur Entsuba Katsuzo. Le monument est installé non loin de la maison des parents de Suzuki dans l'ancien quartier Sarugaku-chō set (l'actuel Ōtemachi, Naka-ku). Il est régulièrement confondu par les touristes étrangers avec un monument en rapport avec la bombe atomique.

Le monument se compose de deux parties : à gauche se trouve un buste de Suzuki sur un piédestal de granit en forme de livre sur lequel se lit  « Oiseau rouge », en écriture japonaise traditionnelle de droite à gauche semblable au titre du magazine disparu, et à droite un bloc de granit sur lequel sont assis deux enfants en bronze. Le texte, de la main de Suzuki, se lit de haut en bas:

Œuvres principales

古事記物語 (Kojiki monogatari / « Le Conte de Kojiki »)
大震火災記 (Daishin kasai ki / « Témoignage du séisme de 1923 de Kantō »)

The proposed project is within the Storey Creek Golf Course which encompasses both the Storey Creek and Woods Creek watersheds. The project site is within the Woods Creek watershed and is located adjacent to the 14th Hole.
A large pond approximately 300 metres in length lies to the west of the 14th fairway and forms the headwaters of this particular branch of Woods Creek. The pond is groundwater fed with very little fluctuations in water levels throughout the year but there are inputs of surface runoff during the winter months. It has a small population of Cutthroat Trout and has been utilized for the headwater planting of Coho fry by DFO staff for at least 10 years. The source of the fry plantings has been the Quinsam DFO hatchery located in Campbell River. The west side of the pond is surrounded by a substantial riparian area and the east side is open fairway. Although the pond is man made, it contains all of the essential elements for rearing salmonids and represents the largest amount of off-channel rearing habitat in the upper part of the Woods Creek watershed.
The outlet of the pond connects to a narrow entrenched channel that has a migration barrier located 30 metres downstream. The barrier consists of a vertical drop of 1 metre down into wooden flume that is approximately 100 metres in length where is connects to a section that was rebuilt as part of a stream enhancement project sometime in the 1990's. The wooden flume is 1 metre by 1 metre and has no habitat suitable for fish. The sides of the structure have rotted to the point where they a starting to collapse. The enhanced channel has a stream morphology consistent with a small coastal stream and has a combination riffles and pools including the placement of log structures and spawning gravels suitable for Coho Salmon and Cutthroat Trout.
The project being proposed is to replace the original constructed channel with a new channel with a similar morphology as the enhanced channel. The slope of the new channel would range from 0.5% to 4.4% and include a combination of riffles and shallow pools with a gravel substrate. The removal of the migration barrier would allow juvenile Coho from the lower reaches of Woods Creek to utilize the abundant habitat in the pond as overwintering habitat and the new channel itself would provide an overall net gain of in stream habitat.
The project was funded by the Campbell River Salmon Foundation and the Storey Creek Golf Club.

Teles Properties was named one of Inc. 5000's "Fastest Growing Companies" in 2013. Why? Because in 2007 Teles opened a unique high-end boutique for luxury real estate that has demonstrated innovative support for its agents and professional service for its customers. With over 40 employees and more than 300 agents, Teles Properties has eleven offices located on the California coast from Orange County to Monterey.
Gene Maggio, Director of Technology at Teles Properties, was managing multiple offices which all had different phone systems. With the company's rapid growth and constant expansion, the requests coming to IT became tedious and difficult to manage.
Some of the systems being used in the offices were so out-of-date that Gene had to search eBay in order to find extra headsets for his new employees. "We were growing really quickly, and recruiting a lot of agents, but one of our biggest headaches was adding a phone number or a new user into the system," explained Gene. Whether it was the cost to get a technician to come set up a line, or the dying hardware that dropped calls, Gene knew that it was time to update all of Teles Properties' phone systems.
After trying eight various services throughout the company's different locations, Gene finally found the perfect fit. RingCentral provides Teles Properties with the cloud business phone solution it needs. Whenever a new office opens, Teles Properties can have everything up and running all in a single day.
Overall, the switch to RingCentral has made the tech side of things easier for Gene, and the company can focus on its growth without worrying about its phone system.
"We have been able to consolidate five services all into one business phone solution using RingCentral, all of which can be managed remotely while on a mobile phone," explained Gene.


An Art Gallery … At The Dentist?
Because overall physical health and good oral health are interdependent, Nishan Halim, DMD, is proud to feature nutrition services through our friend and colleague, Derick Deal, owner and head performance coach at Elite Nutrition.
While some people appear to eat all the right things, avoid all the wrong things, and maintain optimum health through a balanced combination of diet and exercise, the truth is that most people can't make such a claim. In fact, we really don't know anyone who comes close without actually working at it. The even-more-common scenario that we see is the one where people start a program with resolve, then after a few days, weeks or even months, simply give up and let health and nutrition fall to the sidelines.
At Nishan Halim, DMD, we believe that it doesn't have to be this hard or discouraging. In fact, a little coaching and course correction are all that most of us need to realize big life changes.
"Receiving the level of personalized attention from Coach Derick has allowed me to finally break a cycle of dieting that has frustrated me for most of my adult life. Perhaps the most helpful nutrition lesson I learned was to not view food as 'good' or 'bad' but rather simply as nourishment. Derick helped provide me direction, but made sure that my food choices were not coming from a place of 'all or nothing' thinking. Derick does a great job of teaching how to do this." – Nicole A.
The sustainability gap – simply stated – is the distance between the results that a person hoped for and the point at which they just couldn't/wouldn't/didn't stick with the program long enough to achieve those results. It is hard to sustain an eating-exercise pattern that just doesn't (really) fit into a person's life. For a little while – yes. In order to go the distance? Not so much, at least not for most people. The gap between 'here' (short-term results) and 'there' (long-term, sustainable change) is what we call the sustainability gap.
For most people, exercise and nutrition are NOT the primary focus of each day. While fitness may be an important value, the key to effective long-term change lies in tailoring what you need to know and do to the context and constraints of your life – other priorities, time, and energy demands.
The best nutrition plan for any one person is one that is individualized to fit lifestyle needs. This includes things like cooking desire and ability; how much you travel and/or socialize; and the unique demands of your work and relationships.
Elite Nutrition focuses on action over information since the limiting factor for most people is sustaining new nutrition and exercise habits in the face of "real life" (i.e., changes in motivation and will power, daily stress, work, etc.). Effective, long-term behavior change is possible when you learn skills and implement systems that serve you for life. The Elite Nutrition program provides customized design and support to help each person "stick with it" in ways that fit a person's actual life.
Derick Deal is the owner and head performance coach at Elite Nutrition. In addition to coaching hundreds of clients ranging from professional athletes to families, to time-starved working professionals, Derick has consulted and implemented nutrition programs at Government organizations including U.S. Department of Transportation, private companies, and numerous fitness businesses from CrossFit to Yoga.

Hot tubs or hot baths can lead to male infertility, according to a small pilot study in Brazil.
A three-year study analyzed data from 11 infertile men who had been repeatedly exposed to high water temperatures through hot tubs or hot baths, the study reported in the March-April issue of the International Brazilian Journal of Urology.
"It has been believed for decades that wet-heat exposure is bad for fertility, as an old wives' tale, but this effect has rarely been documented," said study leader Dr. Paul J. Turek, a urologist and professor at the University of California, San Francisco. "We now have actual evidence to show patients that these recreational activities are a real risk factor for male infertility."
For the purposes of the study, wet-heat exposure was defined as the immersion of the body in a hot tub or bath at a temperature warmer than body temperature for 30 minutes or more per week for at least three months prior to participation in the study.

Q: How to save input from a text box to a variable in python? I'm creating a simple game to try to learn pygame, and I currently have a game where the user controls a car and has to dodge trucks on a highway.
The game starts off pretty slowly, but I want to add an input box for the user to set their own starting speed.
I know how to make working buttons, but I would rather have a text input that saves to a variable as an integer.
Can anyone help with this?

A: you can use inputbox form pygame.

The overarching purpose of the leadership development program is to provide leaders with an opportunity to enhance their leadership skills.
There are many venues for developing one's leadership skills, but through the Investing in Our Leaders program, the organization provides resources and foundational courses to make formal learning opportunities available.
Leaders Own Their Development. Regardless of what this or any organization provides, every leader needs to 'own' their leadership development growth. Leadership is a learned skill set just as nursing or any other profession is. Do you need exposure or mastery of a wide range of competencies? Do you have a smaller set of leadership gaps that you want to focus upon? For each of us, the needs will be different.

"The United States of America is almost 250 years old, but American women won the right to vote less than a hundred years ago. And when the controversial nineteenth ammendment to the U.S. Constituion-the one granting suffrage to women-was finally ratified in 1920, it passed by a mere one-vote margin. The ammendment only succeeded because a courageous group of women had been relentlessly demanding the right to vote for more than seventy years. The leaders of the suffrage movement are heroes who were fearless in the face of ridicule, arrest, imprisonment, and even torture. Many of them devoted themselves to the cause knowing they wouldn't live to cast a ballot. The story of women's suffrage is epic, frustrating, and as complex as the women who fought for it. Illustrated with portraits, period cartoons, and other images, Roses and Radicals celebrates this captivating yet overlooked piece of American history and the women who made it happen"--

Qualcomm Signs New Patent Licensing Deals In China
Catherine Shu	@catherineshu / 4 years
Qualcomm announced today that it has inked new patent licensing deals in China with smartphone manufacturers Beijing Tianyu Communication Equipment and Haier Group. The San Diego-based chipmaker has made a series of similar agreements over the past two months as it recovers from an antitrust investigation by the Chinese government.
Since the beginning of November, Qualcomm has also announced deals with QiKu, a joint venture between Qihoo 360 and Coolpad, Xiaomi, Huawei, TCL Communication Technology Holdings, and ZTE.
Financial terms for its latest deals were undisclosed, but Qualcomm stated that its licensing agreements with Tianyu and Haier adhere to the terms of a rectification plan it submitted to China's National Reform and Development Commission earlier this year after the government found that it had violated national antimonopoly laws.
Qualcomm said at the time that it disagreed with the results of the investigation, but agreed to pay a $975 million penalty. The fine seems huge until compared to the $7.57 billion in royalties from patent agreements Qualcomm made in China last year. More importantly, the settlement allows Qualcomm to continue selling chips to electronic companies.
The investigation hurt Qualcomm's fourth-quarter earnings because many of its licensees in China wanted to wait for a settlement before negotiating their contracts, but the company said 2015 was a "transition" year and it is optimistic about its recovery next year. Chief executive officer Steve Mollenkopf said earlier this month that Qualcomm is currently in talks with all of China's major handset makers and plans to announce deals soon.
One of the main concessions Qualcomm made as part of the settlement is that it will calculate royalties based on 65 percent of the net selling price of devices, instead of its wholesale price. According to the Wall Street Journal, Qualcomm has agreed to charge licensees 3.5 percent for devices that uses only its patented 4G technology, and 5 percent for ones that use 3G only or a mix of both 3G and 4G.


To Nutcracker, Christmas, and beyond!
Why is it that I always blog when I am sick? Maybe because it cheers me up :). Once again, I am home due to my body rebelling against my wishes, but happily I can update everyone on the last month. It was a busy one. Today, I am opting to tell the story with pictures (it's shorter and more interesting that way). First off... My mom came to visit us! She came with the intention of maintaining her spot as "Gina's #1 Fan," as I was about to embark once again on Nutcracker. She and I (and Casey) hung out, visited downtown Denver, and she accompanied me to the theater most days I was there for performance week. Staying true to her time-honored role, she saw me perform five (yes, 5) times. Plus, she watched most of my warm up classes. You just can't knock her out of that spot (she's maintained it since I started ballet at age 7)! Here are some pictures of our adventures.
At Panera Bread Company, one of my favorite breakfast spots.
Trying on hats and other various winter accessories downtown.
A VERY expensive coat and hat ($7000 plus)- but very warm. It better be.
Fuzzy picture of us backstage between acts-- smiles camoflauging our exhaustion! We did ten shows in six days and while it was fun, I was happy to get some rest when it was done.
Casey and I at home after a show-- before I took my stage "eyes" off.
Me in my angel costume.
Me backstage in my chinese costume.
Then, we got to go to Oregon for Christmas. On the way, we randomly saw one of my best friends in the airport with her husband! We had the exact same flight schedule through Denver!
Jess and I SHOCKED at seeing each other at Denver International Airport!
In Oregon, the record snowfall got us stuck on the way to Casey's parents' house, and I got sick several days later (not because of the snow :) ), but other than that it was really fun to see family and relax a bit.
Casey and his cute grandma Jackie.
Here is where we got stuck in the snow. We are waiting in the car for a shovel to arrive with Casey's dad.
"Mom" Shari and I wearing our traditional Eslinger Christmas accessories. WHAT did I marry into??? :) Just kidding.
My brother about to open his "gift" from us. The airline lost the bag that had all our presents in it, and we didn't get it back until a couple days after Christmas. So we wrote little cards describing the gift so they could open SOMETHING.
After we got back to Colorado, we had a belated "Christmas" with our friends here. Below are some pictures of us and our friends frosting, decorating, and eating sugar cookies. Some of us went nutso on the frosting and I am sure paid for it later :).


Building a community of excellence by nurturing talents, inspiring learners, and developing leaders for an ever-changing world.
We are a PK – 5th grade campus located in the beautiful piney woods of San Augustine County. We offer a full-day PK program, Gifted-Talented education, ESL instruction, an outdoor learning center, and a variety of technology resources to prepare our students for success in the 21st century.
Reading is the most important skill you can teach a child. Of all the skills children learn, it is the one you can influence the most. We invite you to visit our Scholastic Book Fair and experience a celebration of reading that provides families the opportunity to get involved in a universal mission: encouraging kids to read every day so they can lead better lives.
SAES has started a new program called "Community Buddies". This program consists of community members volunteering to come to school and have assigned students read to them. Students are excited to see their buddies each week and read with them for 30 minutes. Mayor Leroy Hughes and Edwin Henly are just a couple of the buddies that are helping to make this program a success!
3rd Nine Weeks Jumping for George!
SAES is so proud of our "Jumping for George" jumpers. These students were drawn from a basket of all students with perfect attendance from the third nine weeks. Students whose name is drawn gets to jump from the beginning of the taped $1.00 bills as far as they can. The farther they can jump, the more money they get! This is fun and exciting for our students. Congratulations!
SA Elementary School is proud to announce the "Awesome Authors" for the third nine weeks. "Awesome Authors" are chosen from each grade level at the end of each nine-week period by their teachers. Students' work is displayed in the main hallway for everyone to enjoy. Great Job SAES! Click on the headline to read more!

Yes, I have suffered from GAS my entire musical life of 43 years, probably spending more than I've made.
In the studio, the list of needs/wants was limitless, and new products come out every month.
For the live musician, there was always some new piece of rack gear that you needed to help fix the sound.
It was impossible to stop buying the latest necessary item.
My GAS is still pumping, I browse the web daily, on eBay, Musicians Friend, Sweetwater, & Full Compass.
I just finished the latest round of digging for new products.
Unfortunately, or fortunately, however you look at it, I am just not finding anything that I need anymore.
This must be owed to the fact that with a few L1 systems in your arsenal, you no longer really need anything.
I still get excited seeing the new NAMM raves, but now, I can only sigh, and admit "I don't need that".
More and more money is making it into my savings account, and I think I can thank Cliff, Ken, and Dr Bose.
Thank you to all of you who were a part of this, you have saved me so much in terms of physical labor and cash.
The cure, when it came to PA gear - well not a total cure - but close was the L1®.
One side-effect of the L1® was that I could hear everything better, so this led me to upgrade microphones and instruments. I could really hear the difference between what I had, and what I eventually found that was better.
Another side-effect has been with vehicles. I don't need a van (or any of the thinking or money that I used to put in that direction). (I don't have to move anything as big as a drum kit- whew).
As for the rest - I stay out of guitar stores. I'm not quite at a place where I will by an instrument sight-unseen. So I'm safe there.
So you're looking for a microphone?
I can totally relate too.
But I think Bose need to step up. After we have bought our L1s and there is no real need for anything else PA, then what?
Remember there is no treatment for GAS. Even if we don't need gear we will still feel the urge for new gadgets.
So Bose - what are you doing about coming up with new stuff to satisfy our GAS?
Um, no, not really, but I did find a nice seat cushion that could sit on top of my 2-B1 stack that I use as a drum throne.
Then I get get rid of that embarrassing hemorrhoid ring that I've been using.
How about some L1 T-shirts, caps, pewter miniature L1s, or L1 beanie babies?
Count me in as part of the same club.....I received my first L1 Mod 2 with B2 last Saturday and the second one coming tomorrow. Very excited to dial them in and use at the next gig.
I may be selling my QSC KW153 and KWsubs if things work out as well as I expect they will.
I did the same thing back in '04 after buying my first L1 Classic.
Unloaded about a ton of gear, tops & subs, amps, racks and devices of all sorts.
Traded in my old van for Jeep that could still haul all my drums and PA!
Have never regretted that one bit.
Are you connecting your (up to 4) Compacts wirelessly. If so - can you tell us about the gear that you are using to do that?
Another great excuse for more gear. Please tell us more.
I have a couple of sennheiser bodypack systems that I use when I want to hook up a speaker system wirelessly (in another room, for example). I use the 1/4" instrument cable connected to the bodypack transmitter, connected to the Master Out on the T1. The wireless receiver is hooked up to the L1 Compact in the other room. Sound is clean and clear with no drop outs!
Now we who have GAS and are familiar with the L1 in all it's varieties, want to know. What does a L2 look like?
What does a L2 look like?
The only change I can think of at my age is, I hope it's lighter.
But I hoped for that one other time and it backfired.
I bought a used electronic drum pad from the 90's, call a Trapkat, it was a godsend.
In the Trapkat forums, the makers asked what improvements we'd like, and there were many requests from the users.
I was the only one who said "Please make it lighter!"
When the new model came out it had gone from 43# down to 14, my prayers were answered.
It was then that I then learned, yet again, be careful what you ask for.
I bought the new Model, the XL, and sold my old heavy one.
Later, I found that, other than weight, it was not a big improvement, it didn't "feel" right.
And though they kept making changes to the playing surface over the years, in the end, it was a disaster for me.
In the end, just a few months ago, I sold it.
Now it is gone at about the time I'd really like a 14# drum set.
No cursebuster...Valvenerd was just joking.

function "replace_all_refs" can be used to replace all references to a object with references to another object. This replaces all references in the _entire_ memory space. You get one final reference to the original reference, so it is possible to call this function again to restore the memory state back to it's original state.


Hey Javokis, I'm a new member i tried to add you a few times on steam.
I've been having a look at VTMR java implementation. I understand that java doesn't do multiple class extensions like C++ i've had a go myself with extensions, packages etc, but it seems a bit hackey for me. How do you extend the Discipline file in terms of duration etc. Sorry i tried to add you on steam for a more private discussion. And then the active VTMR STs sent me here.
Re: Hey Javokis, I'm a new member i tried to add you a few times on steam.
Then you apply the new variable to the effect that's being added.
That's it. That's all there is to it. The rest of the code should work fine.

Woman whose accusation led to lynching of Emmett Till admits she lied
February 3, 2017 MuniCourts
Emmett Till was a 14-year-old African-American teenager lynched after a Mississippi woman, Carolyn Bryant Donham, claimed he made "advances" on her. His killers were acquitted of kidnapping and murder by an all-white, all-male jury. Then, free of further legal jeopardy, they admitted to it. Their casual indifference and impunity helped catalyze the civil rights movement. The Emmett Till case highlights the negative aspect of jury nullification.
Many people believe Emmett Till's murder was a pivotal event motivating the civil rights movement. The Montgomery Bus Boycott took place later that same year in December.
Last week, we learned Donham admitted she lied about Till's actions.
Carolyn Bryant, right, testified at her husband's trial, Roy Bryant, left, that Emmett had grabbed her and been sexually aggressive. Her husband was acquitted of murder after little over an hour's deliberation by an all-white, all-male jury. He later admitted the brutal killing
In a new book, The Blood of Emmett Till (Simon & Schuster), Timothy Tyson, a Duke University senior research scholar, reveals that Carolyn—in 2007, at age 72—confessed that she had fabricated the most sensational part of her testimony. "That part's not true," she told Tyson, about her claim that Till had made verbal and physical advances on her. As for the rest of what happened that evening in the country store, she said she couldn't remember. (Carolyn is now 82, and her current whereabouts have been kept secret by her family.)
Emmett Till, left, was 14 when he was lynched and murdered by Roy Bryant and his half-brother John Milam after allegedly whistling at Bryant's 21-year-old wife Carolyn. Till's mother Mamie Till-Mobley insisted on an open casket for her son's funeral, right, so America could see what had been done to him.
The New York Times adds that "As a matter of narrow justice, it makes little difference; true or not, her claims did not justify any serious penalty, much less death."
… among thousands of lynchings of black people, this one looms large in the country's tortured racial history, taught in history classes to schoolchildren, and often cited as one of the catalysts for the civil rights movement.
Photographs in Jet Magazine of Emmett's gruesomely mutilated body — at a funeral that his mother insisted have an open coffin, to show the world what his killers had done — had a galvanizing effect on black America. … The Justice Department began an investigation into the Emmett Till lynching in 2004, Emmett's body was exhumed for an autopsy, and the F.B.I. rediscovered the long-missing trial transcript. But in 2007, a grand jury decided not to indict Ms. Donham, or anyone else, as an accomplice in the murder.
"I was hoping that one day she would admit it, so it matters to me that she did, and it gives me some satisfaction," said Wheeler Parker, 77, a cousin of Emmett's who lives near Chicago. "It's important to people understanding how the word of a white person against a black person was law, and a lot of black people lost their lives because of it. It really speaks to history, it shows what black people went through in those days."
Till's cousin Wheeler Parker who was with him the night of the incident – and when he was taken from his bed to his death, said: 'My family thinks she's trying to make money but being a preacher, I think she is trying to find a way to go heaven now.'
In this rarely seen photograph, Emmett Till, left, and his cousin Wheeler Parker, back right, are pictured on their bicycles. Rev Parker estimates the picture, which also captures family friend Joe B. Williams, was taken around 1949 to 1950
If conscience is the fear of hell, at least she knows where she's going. We have additional information about Emmett Till including another video on our history page.

The dust of dissent can still choke this regime
by Sam Razi | Jul 27, 2009 | Featured, General
Oppression in Iran seems tougher than ever, but beneath the surface, cracks are appearing and public anger still burns.
Rosemary Righter
In 80 cities across the globe this weekend, demonstrators belatedly gathered in support of Iran's voters. But international solidarity has taken a full six weeks since the stolen elections to manifest itself, and many people outside Iran must have wondered whether it was not too late to "make a difference". Iran's million-strong post-election armies of protest have been bludgeoned off the streets by vicious militias, cut off from each other and the outside world by a draconian and expensive censorship drive, and terrorised by shootings, disappearances and the open use of confessions obtained by torture.
On the surface, "order" has been enforced. But only on the surface. Inside Iran, public anger still burns, flaring up wherever opportunity presents. At the core of the Islamic regime, a struggle has been unleashed that — by stepping off his pedestal into the thick of the fray — the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, has lost his once- undisputed power to bring under control. Far from subsiding, dissent is shaking the regime to its roots.
"The dust of sedition has risen into the air from every corner" and "the elements involved are no longer even concealing their faces," thundered the hardline newspaper Kayhan last Thursday. "The deceit of the enemy has become mixed with the affection of friends." With gross and deliberate exaggeration, the article charged "extremists" with "concentrating their efforts on the sole source of indestructible power of the political system" — theological rule under the Velayat-e Faqih — and of using Mir-Hossein Mousavi, the champion of Iranian rights, as their dupe.

Club World Cup dates set for Feb. 3-12 in the UAE
November 29, 2021, 12:22 p.m. ·1 min read
ZURICH (AP) — Chelsea will have to reschedule two Premier League games to play at the pandemic-delayed Club World Cup, which FIFA said Monday will be held from Feb. 3-12 in the United Arab Emirates.
The seven-team lineup for the rescheduled 2021 tournament was completed Saturday when Palmeiras won the Copa Libertadores.
Chelsea, which won the Champions League, and Palmeiras will enter at the semifinal stage and then go on to play either in the final or in the third-place game.
Premier League leader Chelsea is currently scheduled to play at Brighton on Feb. 8 and host Arsenal on Feb. 12. Those games will now have to be rescheduled.
In the semifinals, Chelsea will face one of three possible opponents: Oceania champion Auckland City, UAE champion Al Jazira or Asian champion Al Hilal. Auckland City will play Al Jazira in a preliminary round, with the winner advancing to play Al Hilal.
Palmeiras was drawn to face either African champion Al Ahly or CONCACAF Champions League winner Monterrey.
The coronavirus pandemic has twice altered plans for this year's Club World Cup. It was originally scheduled to be the inaugural expanded edition in China in June and July. That launch was shelved by FIFA when the 2020 editions of the European Championship and Copa America were put back one year.
A traditional seven-team Club World Cup was to be hosted in December by Japan, which withdrew three months ago citing likely travel restrictions amid the pandemic.
Linamar says labour, logistics issues affecting production, names new board chair
GUELPH, Ont. — Linamar Corp. says supply chain challenges and labour shortages deteriorated in the fourth quarter to materially hit both revenue and margins. The manufacturer says in a market conditions update Tuesday that it expected global light vehicle production to have climbed higher than expected in the fourth quarter, but higher costs for labour and logistics will weigh on its results. Guelph, Ont.-based Linamar says the labour and supply chain issues have "acutely impacted" its ability t
WASHINGTON (AP) — For the first time, people across the U.S. can log on to a government website and order free, at-home COVID-19 tests. But the White House push may do little to ease the omicron surge, and experts say Washington will have to do a lot more to fix the country's long-troubled testing system. The website, COVIDTests.gov, allows people to order four at-home tests per household, regardless of citizenship status, and have them delivered by mail. But the tests won't arrive for seven to
December marks 3rd straight month of growth for US builders
SILVER SPRING, Md. (AP) — Construction of new homes in the U.S. rose for the third consecutive month in December and data released Wednesday suggests that the frantic pace of building will continue this year. The December increase puts home construction at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.7 million units, the Commerce Department reported Wednesday. In all of 2021, nearly 1.6 million housing units were started a 15.6% increase over 2020. The December housing data was boosted by multi-unit p
China's 2021 smartphone shipments up 15.9% y/y - govt data
China had shipped 342.8 million smartphones to domestic consumers in 2021, up 15.9% year-on-year, according to government data published on Tuesday, implying a sector recovery from a blow it took in the early days of the COVID-19 crisis. While shipments were above the 296-million mark that the industry reached in 2020, they remained below 2019, when they rang in at 372 million for the year, according to data from the China Academy of Information and Communications (CAICT), a government-backed think-tank. Last month, China had shipped 32.7 million smartphones domestically, up 29.6% year-on-year.

One of the things I'm going to miss about funemployment is going to places mid week to avoid the crowds. On Friday, I met up with two of my oldest friends and their littles girls for a day at Kew Gardens to check out the orchid festival.
Armed with my new 50mm lens, and dressed up for the arctic conditions, I was ready for an attack of colour – especially as this year is themed around India. It would seem that the Princess of Wales Conservatory isn't great for getting a buggy around and that two year olds would rather play than look at flowers, but we still managed to have a gander at the impressive display.
I'll admit to knowing very little about plants and am certainly not green fingered – despite my mother helping me plant flowers on my balcony, they did not last… But I find nature fascinating, and once again Kew have demonstrated its power to amazing effect.
For more photos, visit my Flickr gallery. The festival runs until 5 March 2017.


We started Just Coffee to work with Zapatista coffee farmers in Chiapas, MX when coffee prices were at an all time low. After meeting and getting close to some radical farm families, it was plain to see that the coffee market was doing them wrong. Returning to Madison we thought that it would be easy to get local roasters and regional importers to partner up with these folks. Turns out it was not.
When we went back to Chiapas we walked to a fiesta nestled in a tiny hamlet in the mountains of Southern Mexico. We had no good news for the farmers there. "It's alright because YOU will buy our coffee. You can sell it," the president of their new co-op said. And we agreed due to positive peer pressure and an intense desire to make a difference.
Back in Madison we became "reluctant entrepreneurs" trying to organize Just Coffee as people who had absolutely no business or coffee roasting training. Not only did we not have any training, we thumbed our noses at anything that smelled of standard business practices. The approach did not always work well, but it sometimes worked brilliantly.
We became known in Madison as the people who showed up on bizarre bikes to farmer's markets, protests, and other events doling out coffee and talking about better ways to trade. We honed our roasting skills over time, rolled forward over our missteps and succeeded due to our energy and momentum.
Over the years we have grown and are now available from Portland to San Fran to Austin to NOLA to Lexington, KY and places in between. We have over 20 people in our organization and we continue to move forward. Our coffee is second to none and our relationships with the small farmers we partner with are strong. We are small players in the coffee industry with a loud voice– the people who won't shut up. And we love it.

Fans Have A Lot To Say About The First Look At Chris Pratt's New Action Flick
By Sam Skopp/Updated: April 28, 2021 11:51 am EST
Over the course of his career, Chris Pratt has famously transformed from an endearing character actor into a leading man. When the first "Guardians of the Galaxy" film was initially released, Pratt debuted a newly-jacked body as the film's central character Star-Lord. Since then, Pratt has left his days as the goofy Andy of "Parks and Recreation" behind him and has continued to work firmly within the realm of blockbuster films.
Pratt is currently slated to star in three upcoming releases. "Jurassic World: Dominion" will be the third in a series of "Jurassic World" films that are both sequels to the original "Jurassic Park" films and a trilogy in their own right. Pratt starred in the first two films and will reprise his role in the third. Of course, "Guardians of the Galaxy 3" is also set to feature Pratt in its lead role given his importance to the franchise, and likewise the franchise's importance in making him an A-list actor. Finally, Chris Pratt will star in "The Tomorrow War," an original science fiction story in which Pratt will lead a team of soldiers fighting an alien invasion in their future.
On April 27, Entertainment Weekly shared some of the first official photos from "The Tomorrow War." In response, fan reactions online have been decidedly mixed. While some found the initial set of photos bland or uninteresting, others are excitedly anticipating Pratt's central role as well as those of his co-stars.
Begun, the tomorrow war has
In response to the first photos of "The Tomorrow War" appearing on Twitter, a Chris Pratt fan account, @dwyermacklin replied, "THIS LOOKS AWESOME!!!" Another Twitter user, @Monal_tweets, was similarly excited for Pratt's starring role, sharing that they think he "look so cool now."
On Reddit, however, sentiment toward the film has been predominately negative. User TurtleTucker found the initial images to look "as generic as an action movie comes." Reddit user DoggieDocHere, meanwhile, described Pratt as "bland, wooden, [and] un-charismatic."
Some of the supporting cast of "The Tomorrow War" has drawn a fair share of attention too. Reddit user TheDadThatGrills noted that Richard Splett, the name of the character portrayed by Sam Richardson on "Veep," would be an unlikely choice for a futuristic supersoldier. Richardson appears in "The Tomorrow War" as a character credited only as Charlie (via IMDb). Twitter user @StarkJeweIs laid out their take on the film plainly: "I see JK Simmons, I watch."
Finally, Mike Mitchell, who hosts cult favorite podcast DoughBoys on which he semi-regularly references his role in "The Tomorrow War," became the unlikely subject of numerous responses to the first images of the film. Twitter user @Really_Allan, in response to Mitchell's central position in one of the new photos, noted that "Mike Mitchell [is] front and center on that poster, just as he should be." User @lord_volta simply cheered on Mitchell's involvement with a gif of the actor and "Let's go Spoonman!" referencing his nickname on the Doughboys podcast. On Reddit, meanwhile, the comment with the second-most upvotes asked "Where's my Mitchy Two-Spoons?" referencing another nickname of Mitchell's on his podcast
According to Observer's Brandon Katz, fans can expect a trailer for "The Tomorrow War" on April 28.

Q: file open failed when persist data to internal storage I am trying to persist data into my Android app's internal storage.
My code is:
File dir = context.getDir("dataDir", context.MODE_PRIVATE);
File file = new File(dir, "myData");

FileOutputStream fos = null;
ObjectOutputStream oos = null;

fos = new FileOutputStream(file); //Exception here
oos = new ObjectOutputStream(fos);
oos.writeObject(MY_DATA);
oos.flush();
...
...

But I got the following exception when open FileOutputStream:
java.io.FileNotFoundExceptoin ..., open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory)
02-19 12:18:23.006: V/MyApp(21019):     at libcore.io.IoBridge.open(IoBridge.java:427)
02-19 12:18:23.006: V/MyApp(21019):     at java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(FileOutputStream.java:88)
02-19 12:18:23.006: V/MyApp(21019):     at java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(FileOutputStream.java:73)

Why it throws this exception ? Where am I wrong?
======UPDATE (solution)=======
After tried all the answers below, I don't have any luck, but eventually, I got the problem solved. The thing is this:
I have a separate class for persistence:
public MyClass{
 private Context context;

 private File dir;
 private File file;

 public MyClass(Context context){
   this.context = context;

   // I used to initialize dir & file instances here
   dir = context.getDir("dataDir", context.MODE_PRIVATE);
   file = new File(dir, "myData");
 }

 public void persistData(){
    //Seems I have to initiate dir & file in this function, then it works
    dir = context.getDir("dataDir", context.MODE_PRIVATE);
    file = new File(dir, "myData");

    //I used to have the following code without above 2 lines, which is not working
    FileOutputStream fos = null;
    ObjectOutputStream oos = null;

    fos = new FileOutputStream(file); //Exception here
    oos = new ObjectOutputStream(fos);
    oos.writeObject(MY_DATA);
    oos.flush();
    ...
    ...
 }

}

I do this for persistence:
MyClass my = new MyClass(context);
my.persistData();

I used to initialize dir & file in constructor, and access the instance in different functions of MyClass, but seems I have to initialize them in each function, then it works. But not sure the reason behind this.... if someone could explain to me.

A: I'm not sure about this but you might need to call
if(!file.exists())
    file.createNewFile()

before opening the FileOutputStream

A: Before accessing the file check if file exists or not
 File dir = context.getDir("dataDir", context.MODE_PRIVATE);
 if(! dir.exists()){
     if(dir.mkdir());
 }

File file = new File(dir, "myData");
 if(! file .exists()){
     if(file .mkdir());
 }

Twenty years after the events of John Carpenter's original Halloween, Michael Myers tracks down his sister laurie (Jamie Lee Curtis) now the, understandably, disturbed and alcoholic head of 'Hillcrest Academy', a private school.
The fictitious town of 'Summer Glen' is the Main Street of the city of La Puente, about 20 miles east of downtown Los Angeles.
The school itself is a mansion complex built for film star Antonio Moreno in the Twenties. For many years it was a Franciscan convent, and it's now abandoned. Only the wrought iron gates and the gatehouse are visible. The Canfield-Moreno Residence and Complex, at 1923 Micheltorena Street in Silverlake, is also used in Scream 3 and more recently in Nicolas Winding Refn's bizarro 2016 The Neon Demon.
