I am a huge fan of this series which features the down to earth Dr Ruth Galloway and the surprisingly complex DCI Harry Nelson so I was thrilled to be asked to be part of the Blog Tour to celebrate the publication of The Chalk Pit by Elly Griffiths, the ninth book in the series which was published on 23 February 2017.
To kick off the tour I give you my humble opinion of this great book!
Another outing for Ruth Galloway and this time the action is firmly set in Norwich when bones are found in an underground tunnel under Guildhall, which is something of an inconvenience for Quentin Swain the architect who is looking to use the space to build a swanky restaurant. Ruth overcomes her dislike of enclosed spaces to take a trip below the city to take a look; she's fairly sure that they are old bones so sends them off to be tested.
Meanwhile the police are investigating the disappearance of a homeless woman, Babs in Norwich who has disappeared without trace. Eddie who has made the police station his bedroom, has reported her missing and it is clear when the police starts talking to the other members of the community, that they are worried about her too, but many are cautious of the police. And then a housewife goes missing in very suspicious circumstances and the police are forced to consider whether there can be a link to Babs.
I have to say that this book treats the subject of homelessness with far more nuance than any other that I've read. Elly Griffiths has given each of the many men, and they usually are men, a realistic story of how they came to be on the street, and why they are unwilling to accept the help offered to them but she has resisted the urge to make them all out to be saints which means that her attempts to make them realistic characters is so much more effective.
One of the many aspects of this series which I love is the link between Ruth and DI Nelson through their daughter Kate and the peek behind their working lives into what can only fairly be described as muddled. These insights leak around the side of the main investigation, never overwhelming it but often cleverly linking or echoing the themes.
In this book Kate is offered the part in a play. Ruth isn't too sure whether this is a good idea but a few words from her mother and outright disapproval from Nelson means that Kate winds up playing the child Alice in a quirky adaption of that famous story called Alice Underground. The adult Alice being played by Cassandra wife of DS Clough.
The other aspect I really enjoy is that upon opening up the latest in the series I feel like I'm meeting old friends with the characters, distinct and engaging as ever, we had plenty of news to catch up on while underground tunnels were being searched and pits opening up in the road are causing chaos in Norwich. Ruth Galloway also links back to past books with little asides so this really is one of those series which is best read in order although there is a helpful who's who guide at the back of the book for those of you reckless readers who are happy to dive in straight at book nine!
The familiarity of the characters alongside the first person narrative really make me feel that I am part of the book. So I know what's going on and I can often predict the individual character's response, but the plotting is so devious that I am no match for the detectives, I am merely on the side lines waiting for them to crack the case in indomitable style.
Although to be honest there isn't one of these books that I haven't enjoyed, the plotting in this one seemed tauter and the links more robust than some of the previous books. When you combine the excellent mystery with some intriguing personal lives and a look at a community which rarely has an accurate spotlight trained on it whilst seamlessly providing the history of the underground tunnels in Norwich, The Chalk Pit was a sure fire winner.
I think the best part of series books is, as you say, the feeling that we are meeting old friends.
It is lovely particularly when a series is well established – Elly Griffiths definitely promotes that feeling in this series.
I'm so glad I discovered this series through you. Currently reading Dying Fall and really enjoying it. A few more sleepless nights and I'll be all caught up 😉.
This is such an excellent series, isn't it, Cleo? It's among my top, and it's one of those that really don't let you down. Very glad you enjoyed this one so well.
If anything I think Elly Griffiths has upped her game in this one – very enjoyable indeed.
Sounds complex. A new one for me so I enjoyed the update.
This series really is worth checking out if you get a chance.
Very nice review and, like you, I loved the compassionate look at the homeless individuals. And how the 'team' reacted to them in sometimes unexpected ways. Lots going on here and lots in the personal lives of all the ongoing characters. I thought this one was quite good and, once again, can't wait for the next one.
That's the only problem with this series, as soon as one finishes I'm longing for the next!
I've only read the first book in this series, but I loved the character of Dr. Ruth Galloway…so I want to read more. Thanks for sharing!
This isn't a series I've read but really should. It sounds great and, if it feels tauter than others can only be getting better?
I think the thing with series is once the characters are well established I expect more from the mystery itself – this one was even better than the last couple!
I reckon from your words that there's a real sense of authenticity and realism in this book and I love when it happens. Another great side of series always coming back to the characters and feeling the bond between reader and protagonists stronger with every story. This sounds like a strong crime story!
This is one of my favourite series, the characters are all quite warm so it feels friendly even while murder is afoot!
Thanks for your review of this one. I was only lukewarm on the first in the series, but maybe I should give it a second chance.

Hermes driver sacked after being caught on CCTV throwing £250 fragile lamp over gate
Duncan Gorman
A HERMES delivery driver has been sacked after being caught on CCTV lobbing a fragile frosted glass lamp, valued at £250, over an 8ft gate.
Retiree Brian Caulfield was shocked when watching his CCTV earlier this year to see the impatient courier driver hurling the package 10ft into the air.
The shocking footage shows the driver launching the large black box over the 67-year-old's black gate before it crashes into a flower bed at the side of the drive.
https://www.deadlinenews.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/HERMES_DRIVER_THROWS_PARCEL_OVER_GATE_DN_VID00.mp4
The box then rolls onto the tarmac at the home in Worcester, West Midlands before the driver walks away and begins to walk back to his van.
But after being confronted by neighbours, who spotted the incident, the driver then returned back to the gate and was filmed clambering over to retrieve the package.
The dopey driver then hands the damaged package to one of the neighbours before scrambling back over the top of the gate – which he left damaged.
An image shows the remains of the lamp which has been completely destroyed by the impact of the throw and is lying shattered on the ground.
Brian, 67, claimed that after complaining to Hermes the delivery driver showed up at the house days later and pleaded for Brian not to take any further action.
Hermes today revealed that, as a result of the incident, the driver no longer works for their company.
After being confronted by Brian's neighbours, the driver jumped the fence to retrieve the parcel.
Brian's daughter, Pam, posted the footage onto Twitter last month writing: "This is how @Hermesparcels treats your packages.
"No response from the company and the driver denies it happened."
Social media users were appalled by the driver's actions.
@MissBoola said: "Hermes is the worst delivery company in the UK. And they don't give a s***."
@PhDstud41324199 said: "This is quite common.
"I just don't understand why @Hermesparcels can't put together a strategy to get their drivers to act like normal humans.
"They're ruining their reputation. I'm not ordering from anyone using Hermes ever again!"
@RuleCrazy said: "You won't get a reply either! We've just had exactly the same, thrown over a 6ft gate without a care for what's inside!
"This is normal. We get this EVERY time! I don't know why companies still use them and why no-one will do anything about them."
@OfficialDinsey replied: "That looks like a pretty successful delivery by their standards."
The driver has since been sacked by the courier service. (C) Brian Caulfield
Speaking today Brian said: "I was shocked (by the CCTV).
"It's like a basketball player lobbing a ball at a hoop.
"You can clearly see on the box that it says fragile.
"But he said he pressed the box and it seemed soft.
"It's been horrendous (trying to gain compensation).
"It's only through sheer perseverance that I got them to respond.
"Their customer service is beyond appalling."
Speaking today a spokeswoman for Hermes said: "We have apologised to Mr Caulfield, paid for the damage to his gate and contacted him to offer him a refund for the item along with an additional goodwill payment.
"As a result of this incident the contractor responsible no longer delivers on behalf of Hermes."

Q: Is there a way to speed-up openMP I am solving a problem that compares execution times between a serial, an mpi and an openMP code. The problem is that the openMP version is slower than mpi. Is there a way to evolve the openMP code below to be faster than mpi?
for(i=0;i<loop;i++)
  {
    #pragma omp parallel for private(k,dx,dy,dz,d,a) schedule(dynamic)
      for(j=0;j<N;j++)
      {
        for(k=0;k<N;k++)
        {
          if(j!=k)
          {
            dx=C[k*3+0]-C[j*3+0];
            dy=C[k*3+1]-C[j*3+1];
            dz=C[k*3+2]-C[j*3+2];

            d=sqrt(pow(dx,2)+pow(dy,2)+pow(dz,2));

            F[j*3+0]-=G*M[j]*M[k]/pow(d,3)*dx;
            F[j*3+1]-=G*M[j]*M[k]/pow(d,3)*dy;
            F[j*3+2]-=G*M[j]*M[k]/pow(d,3)*dz;
          }
        }
      }
      #pragma omp for schedule(dynamic)
        for(j=0;j<N;j++)
        {
          for(k=0;k<3;k++)
          {
            a=F[j*3+k]/M[j];
            V[j*3+k]=V[j*3+k]+a*Dt[i];
            C[j*3+k]=C[j*3+k]+V[j*3+k]*Dt[i];
          }
        }
  }

What this code do is that the outer loop is the times the process is going to take place and is also used in the Dt table in the end. The second loop describes a mass that moves and the third calculates the forces that been pushing it from the other masses existing  in the system. The two loop after that calculates the new position. With this in mind I can't move the parallelism in the outer loop because in every i circle a new updated C table needed. So is there anything to be changed so this code can run faster.

  Dt[i]=(float)rand()/RAND_MAX;
}

A: You may start by replacing schedule(dynamic) with schedule(static). There is absolutely no need for dynamic scheduling here since the amount of work done by each iteration is constant. schedule(dynamic) defaults to chunk size of 1 and dynamically assigns each iteration to some thread with the associated huge overhead.
Dynamic scheduling is useful when each iteration involves a varying amount of work, in which case static scheduling may lead to load imbalance and idling threads. A canonical case is colouring a fractal set. Even then, it is often more reasonable to dispatch work items in chunks of more than one iteration in order to minimise the dispatch overhead.
The second loop is not running in parallel since what you have there is an orphaned OpenMP for construct instead of a combined parallel for one. You also need to make k and a private.

Now that we know that N is really small and loop takes such large values, there are some things that can be done to improve the performance.
First, there is no such thing as "calling omp parallel once to start the parallelism". There are parallel regions that execute in parallel whenever the flow control passes through them. A parallel region is a block of code following the OpenMP parallel construct. OpenMP worksharing constructs such as for only execute in parallel when inside the dynamic scope of a parallel region. The second loop is therefore not parallel since it is only a for construct and is not nested lexically or dynamically in a parallel region.
To make the terminology clear, lexical nesting of an OpenMP construct inside a parallel region means:
#pragma omp parallel
{
   #pragma omp for
   for (...) {}
}

and dynamic nesting means:
foo() {
  #pragma omp for
  for (...) {}
}

#pragma omp parallel
{
  foo();
}

Just calling foo() from outside a parallel region will not make the loop run in parallel.
There are shorthand combined constructs such as parallel for for when the only code in the body of a parallel region is a worksharing construct such as for.
Second, parallel regions are not for free. OpenMP follows the fork/join model of parallel computation where the program executes sequentially until the flow of execution encounters a parallel region. When that happens, a fork of worker threads occurs and the program starts to execute in parallel. At the end of the parallel region, the worker threads are joined back into the main thread and the program continues to execute sequentially. Forking and joining have their price in terms of execution time. Although practically all modern OpenMP runtimes use thread pools and only the very first parallel region activation is really slow due to the time it takes the OS to spawn all the worker threads, the fork/join overhead is still not negligible. Therefore, it is meaningless to use OpenMP unless there is enough work to be distributed between the threads so that the overhead can be amortised.
Here is an illustration of the problem. Four iterations, each taking one time unit, computed sequentially and in parallel with two threads. The overhead for both fork and join is two time units:
|    sequential                 parallel
|  +------------+     +-------------------------+
|  |    it.0    |     |          fork           |
|  |    it.1    |     |        overhead         |
|  |    it.2    |     |    it.0    |    it.2    |
|  |    it.3    |     |    it.1    |    it.3    |
|  +------------+     |          join           |
|                     |        overhead         |
|                     +-------------------------+
v  time

Although dividing the iterations between two threads make the computation twice as fast, the overhead makes the parallel version slower overall.
The same, but now with ten iterations:
|    sequential                 parallel
|  +------------+     +-------------------------+
|  |    it.0    |     |          fork           |
|  |    it.1    |     |        overhead         |
|  |    it.2    |     |    it.0    |    it.5    |
|  |    it.3    |     |    it.1    |    it.6    |
|  |    it.4    |     |    it.2    |    it.7    |
|  |    it.5    |     |    it.3    |    it.8    |
|  |    it.6    |     |    it.4    |    it.9    |
|  |    it.7    |     |          join           |
|  |    it.8    |     |        overhead         |
|  |    it.9    |     +-------------------------+
|  +------------+
|
v  time

Clearly, the parallel version is now faster and will get even faster the more iterations there are, approaching asymptotically from below a speedup of 2x. Note that the problem here is not that there are only four iterations in the first case, but that those iterations take only one time unit each. It is fine to use OpenMP for a problem with small number of iterations but large amount of computational time per iteration.
The problem in the first case can be greatly exacerbated if the parallel region is inside an outer loop that with many iterations, which is exactly your case. The canonical solution is to move the outer loop inside the parallel region. This way, there will be a single fork and a single join and the overhead will not get replicated. With your code, something like this:
#pragma omp parallel private(i,k,dx,dy,dz,d,a)
for(i=0;i<loop;i++)
{
   #pragma omp parallel for schedule(static)
   for(j=0;j<N;j++)
   {
      for(k=0;k<N;k++)
      {
         if(j!=k)
         {
            dx=C[k*3+0]-C[j*3+0];
            dy=C[k*3+1]-C[j*3+1];
            dz=C[k*3+2]-C[j*3+2];

            d=sqrt(pow(dx,2)+pow(dy,2)+pow(dz,2));

            F[j*3+0]-=G*M[j]*M[k]/pow(d,3)*dx;
            F[j*3+1]-=G*M[j]*M[k]/pow(d,3)*dy;
            F[j*3+2]-=G*M[j]*M[k]/pow(d,3)*dz;
         }
      }
   }

   #pragma omp for schedule(static)
   for(j=0;j<N;j++)
   {
      for(k=0;k<3;k++)
      {
         a=F[j*3+k]/M[j];
         V[j*3+k]=V[j*3+k]+a*Dt[i];
         C[j*3+k]=C[j*3+k]+V[j*3+k]*Dt[i];
      }
   }
}

You have to be very careful now because the entire loop is inside the parallel region and each thread is executing all iterations, i.e., there is no distribution of iterations. There is no worksharing directive applied to the i-loop and therefore i must be given explicitly the private treatment. A better coding style would have all private variables declared inside the parallel region, in which case there will be no need for a private clause at all, but this is not done here for demonstration reasons.
Because the i-loop iterations are not independent from one another, you have to make sure that all threads are doing them in lock-step. This is usually achieved with barrier synchronisation, which in the code above comes from the implicit barriers at the end of the for constructs. The same applies to different stages inside the iteration. Again, here the second worksharing construct does not start before the previous one has finished due to the implicit barrier at the end of the latter.

A: The very frist thing to do is to set up a time measurement and check if this snippent is your hotspot. (I think you already did this, since you compared openMP to mpi)
Here are my thoughts:

*

*Make all local variables local.

*Check if the dynamic scheduling really helps you

*Reduce superfluous calculations pow(sqrt(x),3) = pow(x,1.5)

*if N is not too large, I suggest that you once pre calculate M_once[j+N*k]=M[j]*M[k]. If j==k you can set M_once to zero and thus save time for the branching (if statement).

Here is the code:
for(int i=0;i<loop;i++) {
    #pragma omp parallel for
      for(int j=0;j<N;j++)
      {
        for(int k=0;k<N;k++)
        {
          if(j!=k)
          {
            const double dx=C[k*3+0]-C[j*3+0];
            const double dy=C[k*3+1]-C[j*3+1];
            const double dz=C[k*3+2]-C[j*3+2];

            const double d=pow(dx,2)+pow(dy,2)+pow(dz,2);

            const double factor = G*M[j]*M[k]/pow(d,1.5);

            F[j*3+0] -= factor * dx;
            F[j*3+1] -= factor * dy;
            F[j*3+2] -= factor * dz;
          }
        }
      }
      #pragma omp for
        for(int j=0;j<N;j++)
        {
          for(int k=0;k<3;k++)
          {
            const double a = F[j*3+k] / M[j];
            V[j*3+k] = V[j*3+k] + a * Dt[i];
            C[j*3+k] += V[j*3+k] * Dt[i];
          }
        }
  }

Q: iTunesLibrary Swift 5.3 macOS After reading the documentation and looking through the header files of the iTunesLibrary frameworks I am unable to determine how, or if it's even possible, to manually specify the iTunes/Music library file to read?
The documentation within the header files indicate the system dynamic library loads the 'Default' library.  The only way I have found so far to load another library is to use the +click method to manually choose the library to be used, then quit the Music app and the last chosen library become the default.
Is there not a way to specify a file?  The mediaFolderLocation and musicFolderLocation methods are defined as 'get only' methods.

A: After lots and lots of research I have determined there is not a way to specify the particular library you want to open.  It automatically refers to the system 'default' library.

Home 420 News Medical Marijuana News OH: Police Chief Does Not Expect 'Reefer Madness'
OH: Police Chief Does Not Expect 'Reefer Madness'
Craig Shoup
Photo Credit: Gibsonburg Police Dept
With Gibsonburg building a medical marijuana facility and Fremont getting a dispensary, one local police chief said he does not believe medical marijuana will negatively impact Sandusky County.
In fact, Gibsonburg Police Chief Paul Whitaker called medical marijuana "wonderful" and said it could make a dent in the opioid epidemic that has killed dozens in the county, overpopulated local jails and torn families apart.
"I think most people that are getting addicted to heroin are getting addicted from taking opioids prescribed to them," Whitaker said in a recent interview.
The Ohio Attorney General's Office said during a March 2017 opioid conference that four out of every five heroin addicts got hooked after getting a legal prescription for pain medication.
No 'clear and present danger'
"I don't believe it presents a clear and present danger," Whitaker said of medicinal marijuana.
Ohioans with certain medical conditions will soon be able to obtain a doctor's recommendation to purchase medical marijuana.
Many questions still remain about Ohio's new medicinal marijuana industry, but In Michigan, where it's been legal for a decade, the medicinal cannabis sells for about $10-20 a gram and $200-300 an ounce.
It will be illegal to smoke the plant form of medical marijuana in Ohio, but dispensaries like the one in Fremont will offer medical marijuana lotions, edibles and oils.
Personally, Whitaker said he does not endorse recreational use, but said there are many benefits to using medical marijuana, with around 21 medical conditions now qualifying for medical marijuana treatment.
Right now medical marijuana is legal in 29 states, plus the District of Columbia. Whitaker believes the moratorium in many states will eventually be lifted and that all states will make medicinal marijuana available.
Weigh the benefits
"Personally, we need to look at the balance of benefits of what this can do," he said. "Some use prescription opioids because they are legal and then get hooked on it."
As medical marijuana becomes more available and more products are created to satisfy the demand, Whitaker believes there could be a black market for medical marijuana.
"There will be a black market for anything that sells," Whitaker said.
But the chief believes the ability to use medicinal cannabis as a treatment for pain or terminal disease outweighs the risks of a potential illegal drug trade.
"I think you are going to get less prescribing of opioids by doctors," Whitaker said. "The biggest difference between this and opioids is the presence of the morphine molecule in opioids. It is unlike any other addiction, like alcohol, gambling or drugs. It's more addicting than love."
Whitaker believes medical marijuana will have a short- and long-term impact on the county.
"First, it's a new business in Gibsonburg and in the county, and we can't police without tax money," Whitaker said.
The cultivation facility being constructed at the Clearview Industrial Park, one of 25 statewide, is expected to have 40 to 50 new jobs paying between $12 and $20 per hour with administrative jobs paying around $100,000 per year.
$50 million investment
The 50,000-square-foot Standard Wellness facility is expected to infuse the local economy with a $50 million investment over the next 10 years.
Looking at the long-term impact of medical marijuana, Whitaker said he believes it to be an alternative treatment for those afflicted with terminal illness.
"One of the things we know it does is it improves appetite, and for people with terminal illness, it can help them live a little longer, because many people that die of terminal illness die from being malnourished."
Though Whitaker is among the public officials in favor of medical marijuana coming to Sandusky County, some fear that it may have a negative impact on the community.
Stacey Gibson, director of health and planning education for the Sandusky County Health Department, said marijuana use in the county is a concern.
Among youth in grades 6 through 12, 11 percent reported using marijuana at least once within a 30-day period during a 2016 community health survey. That number was up from 8 percent who said they had used marijuana in a survey the department conducted in 2013.
Marcie Seidel, executive director of the nonprofit Prevention Action Alliance, said medical marijuana is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration.
Questions remain about medical marijuana in Ohio
Seidel in April spoke to a group of community members concerned with medical marijuana coming to Ohio.
Because the FDA has not approved medical marijuana, Seidel said doctors can only recommend and not prescribe medicinal cannabis to patients.
Limits on potency
Medicinal marijuana will have restrictions on potency that will be divided into two tiers.
Tier 1 medical marijuana can only have a potency of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the chemical that gives users a high, of 23 percent or lower.
For Tier 2, potency can reach no more than 35 percent THC.
Seidel said she is concerned about the possibility of increased traffic crashes and more failed drug tests for employers.
"In Colorado, traffic deaths doubled for drivers positive with marijuana," Seidel said. "Patients should wait six to eight hours after ingestion before driving."
Drivers who tested positive for marijuana use in traffic crashes in Colorado — where recreational marijuana became legal in 2012 — rose 145 percent from 47 in 2013 to 115 in 2016, according to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Employers will not have to make special accommodations for workers using medical marijuana, Seidel said, saying employers can establish drug-free workplaces and cannot be sued for adverse action taken against medical marijuana use.
Whitaker said he believes that as medicinal marijuana use expands, there will be a risk of more abuse or impaired driving cases, but he did not foresee the same type of abuse of medical marijuana as alcohol or other drugs.
"I don't see the abuse that some might suggest will come," Whitaker said. "At least no more than you see with alcohol. You see more abuse of alcohol, more fights from it and more property damage cases."
State laws on impaired driving will not change in regard to those who drive under the influence of medical marijuana, according to Ohio Attorney General Spokesman Dan Tierney.

What's that about my wife? Why I oughta… Jus' kiddin', you did a terrific job as always. Thanks, guys.
Rish has a big mouth sometimes. I think you should send some blokes out to give him a good rogering.
Actually, Rish, your singing for Greatest American Hero sounded pretty good. Someone out there really needs to remake that show. If they can do it for Battlestar Galactica and Knight Rider, then why not GAH?
I understand why you went pretty retro in your pics (and I'm at just the right age to remember a few of those fondly), but for me my personal favorite TV theme is the X-Files. Even after having heard it a gajillion times, the whistling thing still gives me the chills.
I like the self-effacing way you write, Mike.
I was at the local bookstore today and I saw a short story collection with one of your pieces in it. I started telling everyone around me, "Hey, I know that guy!" Eventually, though, I was forcibly removed from the premises. Worst part of it was, when the security guard shoved me the first time, I nearly knocked down their big Stephenie Meyer display.
There's a book with me on general sale in bookstores? I'm impressed. Any idea which one it was?
I just realised… the three stories of mine you've bought so far are all in first-person, and yes, the main characters are self-effacing. Maybe I should send you an 'in yer face' third-person piece. A long one, so you can print it out, roll it up and bop that security guard over the head.
Just a quick note to say that I think that was probably the best Dunesteef yet. I think you guys have found your communal voice as a podcast.
Great story! Please post the name of the anthology where Mr. Stone appeared. I'd like to look into it.
Greatest American Hero – Best theme song *ever*. Pretty good rendition of it, too. Still, I'm surprised you guys didn't mention some of my other favorites: Charles In Charge, Facts of Life, Hawaii Five-Oh?
Mike, I believe the anthology was called "The Undead: Flesh Feast," and it had a zombie story of yours in it. Maybe you should verify whether that one is yours before many, many more Stephenie Meyer displays are knocked over.
Ah, I'd heard Permuted Press were making strides towards bookstore distribution. Good for them! And yes, that's me. "Memory Bones", a non-zombie story I somehow managed to sneak intoa zombie antho.
Apparently Permuted has their own end caps in some Borders stores, so yes, the strides they're making are awesome.
Good story. I'm getting caught up on some stories I skipped and I liked this one a lot. Clob is an intersting fellow, but not one I'd like hanging around all the time, if you know what I mean.
Thanks, Doug. Hope you enjoy the sequel, too!

Q: Validate two text fields together in html I want to compare two text fields to make sure that the summation of two values should be equal to 100. I couldn't find any java script for this matter.

A: You din't explained your problem well, but I think this is what you want:
<input id="first" type="text">
<input id="second" type="text">
<button onClick="onClick()">Click me</button>

function onClick(){
var first = parseInt(document.getElementById("first").value);
var second = parseInt(document.getElementById("second").value);
var sum = first + second;
if (sum == 100)
{
    ...//Your code here...

Please tell me if this din't work for you.

Q: str() doesn't work in the body of my function I am trying to write a simple function where I need to concatenate a string and an integer converted into a string. My code is as follows:
def bonus_time(salary, bonus):
    total_Salary = 0

    if bonus == True:
        total_Salary = salary * 10
    else:
        total_Salary = salary

    print(total_Salary)
    str(total_Salary)
    return "$" + total_Salary

print(bonus_time(1000, True))

The error I get is that python cannot concatenate string and int, even though I am using str() to convert the int to a string.
Many thanks for any help.

A: You do not reassign the converted value. Simply change your return statement to
return "$" + str(total_Salary)

and omit the previous call to str(). Additionally, total_Salary = 0 has no influence as you're changing the variable afterwards.

Summing up, you could write:

def bonus_time(salary, bonus):
    if bonus:
        total_Salary = salary * 10
    else:
        total_Salary = salary

    print(total_Salary)

    return "$" + str(total_Salary)

Or - even shorter, using the ternary operator:
def bonus_time(salary, bonus):
    total_Salary = salary * 10 if bonus else salary
    return "${}".format(total_Salary)

I'd argue though that your first if/else expression is more readable and should be used instead.

A: replace :
str(total_Salary)

return "$" + total_Salary

with
return "$" + str(total_Salary)

Video Game / 2Dark
Don't let fool yourself by the artstyle. This game is absolutely not for children.
2Dark is a 2017 isometric Stealth Survival Horror game by Gloomywood, published by Bigben Interactive and created by Frederick Raynal (creator of Alone in the Dark). Playable character is Mr. Smith, a detective who travelled with his family, spending a night in the woods in 1969. However, in the same night, his wife gets killed and his children kidnapped by someone. In 1976, Mr. Smith gets kicked out the police and still mourns about the loss of his family. He explores the town of Gloomywood to solve a mystery involving disappearing children.
After 2Dark's release, people saw that the game was protected with the DRM Denuvo. During the Ulule campaign, Gloomywood promised that the game was going to be DRM-free. As of April 19, 2017, six days after having been cracked by CPY, Denuvo has been removed from 2Dark.
Needs Wiki Magic Love.
Tropes that apply to 2Dark:
Ambiguously Bi: Sylvia Scarlett may or may not be in a physical relationship with her companion and fellow kid taxidermist Elisa: however, she definitely has the hots for Ernest Miguele, the boss of the next level, as made clear by the love letter you find in his hospice.
An Arm and a Leg: "Delicatessen" has the left arm missing and Dr. Krach misses both legs.
An Axe to Grind: A weapon that shows up in the fifth level, and is very effective at sneak kills.
Asshole Victim: Most of the killers encountered by Smith deserve very much their fate.
Bad People Abuse Animals: Dr. Krach nails Smith's cat before kidnapping Jessie's daughter.
Bald of Evil: Doggy Doug is bald and mean.
Big Bad: Dr. Sergei Krach is the one who killed Mr. Smith's wife, kidnapped and brainwashed his children, and the mastermind about the disappearing of the other children in Gloomywood.
Bittersweet Ending: If the player decides to spare Sandra and Martin, Smith gets a medal of honor for saving the children from Dr. Krach. However, Smith will be traumatized by everything he's seen and his children will be likely put into asylum.
Black Widow: Adelaide, one of the crazy women in the final level is this. You can overhear her recount before a painting of herself how "Franciso was old. So I killed him. Andre was fat. So I killed him. Max was dumb. So I killed him."
Body Horror: Dr. Miguele's abominations. There are also the failed experiments preserved into jars in his lab.
Chainsaw Good: Delicatessen uses a chainsaw holding it with the right arm.
Circus of Fear: Antonio Petronelli's lair is an abandoned circus.
Cluster F-Bomb: The characters, especially Smith, are fond on swearing like a bunch of sailors.
Collection Sidequest: Every level has around a dozen of hidden candies to collect, and your final star rating is affected by how many you have found. They do serve a practical gameplay function - they help to quiet the children you are rescuing, or attract their attention so that they don't stray too far - but it's still a pretty bizarre element in such a dark game.
Creepy Souvenir: The dolls around Sylvia's tower are children she and Elisa killed, and stuffed.
The Dev Team Thinks of Everything: A lot of the little things can trigger their own responses. For instance, in the final level, there's a child guarded by two nameless, hooded members of Krach's cult. Killing just one and having the other discover the body leads to him remarking "You want to save the kids, Smith, right? Let me make that task easier for you by one." and he heads straight to kill the child unless you can thwart him in time.
Also averted in the second level: sending Mayuka, the girl Sylvia and Elisa wanted to turn into a doll, onto the first floor through the dumb waiter before actually killing them will still have them talk in her room about how they should give her a straw hat and the like, oblivious that the girl is not there anymore.
Downer Ending: If the player decides to execute Sandra and Martin on the final level, Smith is arrested and framed for everything by the police, while receiving a What the Hell, Hero? by Jessie.
Embarrassing Nickname: Doggy Doug. His nickname is so horrible that even Smith lampshades this by saying "What a dumb name…"
Even Evil Has Loved Ones: In Miguele's hospice, you can discover a love letter from Sylvia addressed to him. Of course, it's suitably twisted, praising "his predatory smile", and finishing with "I love you, and I love the taste of your blood".
Even Evil Has Standards: After you kill the first level's boss, Antonio Petronelli, the next one, Sylvia Scarlett will admit to her friend/partner Elisa that he was "an evil bastard" and she "enjoyed his stupid shows, but won't weep at his grave". This is also quite hypocritical, since their shared hobby consists of killing children and turning their bodies into dolls, which is far more evil than anything Petronelli actually did.
Evil All Along: In the fifth level, you find this out about tv2 Gloomywood journalist Paul Roger.
Evil Clown: Antonio Petronelli, who kidnaps children and sends most of them to feed the needs of the other psychopaths (where most get killed), while keeping a few for himself to train into circus pets.
Expy: Most of the characters resemble some notable ones:
Mr. Smith is an alcoholic widowed version of Edward Carnby;
Antonio Petronelli is Pennywise with some elements of The Joker;
Sylvia Scarlett has a butler named Benjamin Sagot, who is pretty clearly styled after Alfred Pennyworth.
Delicatessen is a one armed Leatherface wearing a pig-mask like Piggsy;
Dr. Ernest Miguele is a badly scarred Frankenstein with elements of real-life nazi Mad Scientist Josef Mengele; in fact, you can find a "New Scientist International" in his clinic that has him on its cover, and straight-up calls him "a modern Dr. Frankenstein", who defends a thesis of immortality.
Doggy Doug is a metal-jawed Shell-Shocked Veteran version of Dr. Faustus. He also bears some resemblance to Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight version of Bane.
Eyepatch of Power: Smith has one.
Fan Disservice: Scarlett's tower has a painting of her laying practically naked on a couch, in all her obese glory.
Fangs Are Evil: Doggy Doug is full of steeled sharped teeth.
Fat Bitch: The "Princess" Sylvia Scarlett. She hardly ever gets outside her tower, and loves eating cakes, making her predictably obese as a result. She also pays her employees well, but uses this as a license to treat them poorly. And that's not mention her hobby of killing children and turning their bodies into stuffed dolls.
After you get through her level, you can overhear hospice's nurses in the next one gossip about her, and how she was once pulled over for speeding while blind drunk.
Floorboard Failure: Nearly every level has some broken floorboards on it. Smith will instantly fall through and die if he steps on these.
Sometimes, this can be turned against your enemies too. One of the female psychos in the final level, Adelaide, will regularly check on her painting, and monologue about her kills in front of it. This painting can be moved right in front of the crack on the floor; she won't notice, step there, and die.
Friendly Fireproof: Averted. Careless shooting will kill friendly characters. Killing any of the children you were meant to rescue leads to an instant game over, while killing people who weren't aggressive or even helpful (like Carlotta in the first level) will stay on your conscience.
Girls with Moustaches: Carlotta, the bearded woman in the first level.
Gratuitous Latin: Being a medic, Miguele knows Latin, and likes to drop some of it in his speech. If he kills you, for instance, he'll exclaim "Acta est fabula! The long path of your destiny ends here!"
Half the Man He Used to Be: Delicatessen can die like this while is dragged unconscious by Smith in to a circular saw.
Hollywood Darkness: Averted, as the dark parts of the level are really dark. Smith is completely hidden when he enters such shadows, and you can only tell where he is because the game places two blue footsteps on your screen where his feet are.
Hooker with a Heart of Gold: Betty, the prostitute near the Mermaids' Tavern.
Hulk Speak: Dr. Miguele's abominations speak like this.
Human Resources: Miguele uses his hospice as a front for his real business - killing children and selling their organs (specifically advertising them as).
I'm a Humanitarian|Child Eater: Lewis "Delicatessen" Normann. Also the horned-skull wearing hermit near Doggy Doug's Scrap Yard.
Infant Immortality: Brutally and tearfully averted. Children can die in very violent ways.
Smith himself can end up accidentally killing children, though doing so instantly results in a Game Over.
Then, the "Delicatessen" level also has a young girl as the youngest member of the cannibal family. Her dialogue reveals that her uncle tried molesting her and so she carries a straight razor in self-defence - a razor she'll easily turn on you, if she spots you. Killing her doesn't result in a Game Over, and has no ill consequences beyond simply adding one to the "Innocents" death tally at the end of the level, same as if you killed an adult who wasn't threatening/could have been avoided.
Infinite Flashlight: Averted. It runs on batteries, and has to have them replaced every once in a while.
Karmic Death: Some bad guys can die in a very karmic way:
Petronelli can be lured near the cages containing lions and devoured by them.
Sylvia Scarlett can die by eating a poisoned cake.
Dr. Miguele can be trapped into a gas chamber and die by gas poisoning.
Kevlard: Sylvia Scarlett is very fat, and is the boss with the highest amount of health in the game, who actually says "Hee hee hee! That tickles!" or "Try a little harder and I might just feel a little sting", in response to getting shot. To offset that, her level is the only one in the game where you can get a machine gun (though this all-but-requires killing her security), so that you can still bring her down in head-on combat. (Though poisoning her food is the preferred alternative.)
Like Father, Like Son: Sylvia's father built a huge doll factory. His daughter takes it a step further by killing real girls and stuffing their bodies to use as dolls.
Mad Scientist: Dr. Ernest Miguele, who both kill chidren to traffick in their organs, and turns people into deformed, mentally stunted abominations.
Multiple Endings: Two of them, depending on a single choice made in the final level. (Three if you count the Non-Standard Game Over that can also occur there.)
Smith, manages to avoid a confrontation with his grown-up and brainwashed children. The police gives him a medal for everything he's done, while his children are put into an asylum, and he may also start a relationship with Jessie.
Smith knocks Dr. Krach off his wheelchair and places his in a gas chamber. He doesn't kill him until his cries for help lure in his grown-up children, at which point he locks the door, and kills them all. Doing so gets him arrested at the end as well.
Nintendo Hard: It is very easy to get killed unless you know exactly what you are doing. While you can save, it is both difficult to do, and the total number of saves is limited; after a certain point, further attempts to save through smoking simply end up with Smith choking to death on his cigarette.
No Celebrities Were Harmed: Delicatessen slightly resembles Rainn Wilson when he's without the pig mask. He also bears a slight resemblance to Jack Black.
Non-Standard Game Over: In the last level, If you take the shortcut on your left, you get captured and imprisoned. Dr. Sergei Krach will mock you and your sons Brainwashed and Crazy will kill you instantly.
Another one also happens if you save too often. Since saving is done through smoking cigarettes, consuming too many kills you.
Offing the Offspring: Smith can kill his children Sandra and Martin together with Dr. Krach in the final level. Doing so is pretty much the only action you can take that'll result in a different ending.
One-Hit Kill: A sneak attack with a knife amounts to this on everyone besides the level bosses.
Off with His Head!: Smith's wife, Helen, is decapitated in the opening sequence.
Poirot Speak: Carlotta the bearded woman speaks english while using random Spanish words.
Psycho Lesbian: Sylvia Scarlett lives on top of her tower with Elisa, who is all but outright stated to be her girlfriend. Their shared hobby is to buy kidnapped children from Antonio Petronelli, kill them, and turn their bodies into stuffed dolls.
Rat Stomp: Downplayed. Practically every level will have at least a few rats in the dark, damp backskirts/basements you'll generally have to sneak through. These will bite if you come too close, and accidentally pissing off a whole swarm can easily lead to Smith getting overwhelmed.
Retraux: The game is made as if it was released in the 90s.
Save Scumming: Averted. The only way to save through smoking a cigarette, which requires you to combine them with a lighter and so takes a few seconds and can only be done in a safe place. Moreover, Smith's lungs will give out if you smoke too many.
Shell-Shocked Veteran: Douglas "Doggy Doug" Potapis. It is heavy implied that he fought in Vietnam.
Shoot Out the Lock: Averted when you find a chained-up kid in Miguele's hospice. The chain is considered a part of their model, so shooting it will still kill them, no matter how finely you aim.
Stealing the Credit: Police detective Conrad takes credit for solving all the crimes you discover. Smith doesn't mind that, though, as that takes the heat off his persona. Though the bad guys still catch on to him by the end of the game.
Stuffed into the Fridge: The fate of Smith's wife, Helen, in the opening sequence of the game.
Tampering with Food and Drink: An alternate way of dealing with Sylvia Scarlett is to place rat poison in her cake before it's sent upstairs through the food elevator. You can poison her assistant/girlfriend's champagne alongside it as well.
Taxidermy Is Creepy: Played to its extreme in Sylvia's tower, since she kills children to turn into stuffed dolls.
Video Game Cruelty Potential: It's possible, though difficult, to kill virtually everyone besides the children on each level. Even if it's people like Sylvia's cooks and security or medics at the Ernesto's hospice, who are kept away from their bosses' inner sanctums, and had no idea about the crimes that took place there.
Welcome to Corneria: While players might find it inconvenient at first to read the little bits of dialogue from level's NPCs while sneaking, they'll all eventually repeat themselves in time, so it balances out.
What Measure Is a Mook?: Played with, as the game considers essentially all of the people on each level who aren't bosses and who can be bypassed without killing "innocents", and adds their kills to a respectively named tally. Even when it's people like Petronelli's thugs, who are clearly involved in what's going on, or members of the cannibal family.
Would Hurt a Child: The bad guys are very fond on abusing, kidnapping, brainwashing and killing children.

Southend Pier attracts thousands of visitors in 2020 despite being closed for five months during pandemic
It beat some numbers recorded in 2019 despite being closed for five months
Louise LazellSenior Reporter
The pier attracted more visitors in 2020 than it did in 2019
Southend Pier attracted more than 160,000 visitors in 2020 despite the pandemic.
The world's longest pleasure pier saw visitor numbers actually top some of 2019's figures - despite being closed for almost five months.
In January, September and October of 2020, the pier saw the number of visitors exceed the same months back in 2019.
In total, a whopping 168,691 people visited Southend Pier, even though it was closed for almost half of it.
The famous trains, which run along a single track on the pier
For most of the year, Southend Borough Council had been peddling the message 'Don't Visit Southend' as opposed to their usual 'Visit Southend'.
During the summer in particular, there were frequent calls from councillors urging visitors to follow the rules and dissuade travellers heading to Southend from far and wide.
Councillor Kevin Robinson however, who is the cabinet member for business, culture and tourism, said this year's statistics are a positive reflection that the pier remains as important a tourist attraction than ever before.

"When we reopened the pier back in June, we knew that many people would be cautious about visiting, given the concern surrounding the coronavirus pandemic," Cllr Robinson said.
"However, we still managed to beat some 2019 visitor numbers."
He added: "I am delighted to say we have seen over 168,000 people visit the pier in 2020 despite the various closures that were necessary.
"It is fantastic to see there is still a real interest in taking in the magnificent views 1.3miles into the estuary.
"The iconic pier trains, which have been in operation on the pier since 1986, will be retired this year.
"We are looking forward to introducing the new eco-friendly pier trains in 2021, which is even more reason to take a trip to the pier once we can reopen."

The council said they are now looking forward to welcoming visitors back when they reopen at some point this year.
Their eco-friendly trains are being installed in 2021 as well as further investment planned for the pier ahead.
Several safety measures remain in place on the pier, including facemasks in enclosed areas and on the trains (unless medically exempt), utilising the NHS track & trace system, sanitising stations, social distancing and the regular cleansing of the pier trains in line with the government rules and guidance.

The Complicated Dynamics of American Unemployment
According to MarketWatch,
Employers say they're having difficulty filling jobs. Jobless Americans say they want to work. So what's going on?
But a recent poll of 1,000 unemployed workers by CNBC and Morning Consult told a different story. Respondents said the trickle-down effect of job openings had not reached them — at least, not yet. Some 87% said they had not received job offers in the last six months.
Here's what's going on
First of all, we have to come to an agreement on what constitutes the unemployed. I've written on this before. The government inaccurately shows the current rate at 5.8%, which is wildly wrong-headed and they've been at this wildly wrong-headedness for decades. The actual percentage is far more likely to be in the range of 40% and that's a hell-of-a-lot of Americans, my friend.
How did they miss the mark by 700%?
In general, the unemployment rate in the United States is obtained by dividing the number of unemployed persons by the number of persons in the labor force (employed or unemployed) and multiplying that figure by 100. Which would be fine, but they don't know how many are unemployed, nor do they know the size of the total labor force.
So, they're dividing a number they don't know by a number they don't know and multiplying by 100. Sound like a solid basis upon which to start? I thought not.
But the Congress and all its members work with those fabricated numbers to decide whether or not Americans are doing okay in the workplace. Then they bicker back and forth about whose fault it is, throw up their hands and agree to increase the military budget before adjourning for a badly needed trickle-down martini.
Shaken, not stirred. Or is it stirred, not shaken? Anyway, two olives, everybody agrees it's two olives.
So let's count up what's not counted
Your and my government doesn't count those whose unemployment compensation has expired. They may not have jobs but, thank god, as far as the government is concerned they're off the books. A person is counted as unemployed if he or she does not have a full-time, part-time, or temporary job, is actively looking for a job, and is currently available to be hired. How they find these 'persons' is not disclosed. Maybe they peek under bridges or employ sniffer-dogs. The unemployed often have a slightly disagreeable not working odor. A person is understood to be actively looking for a job if he or she has tried to obtain one (e.g., by filling out an employment application, sending a résumé, or having a job interview) within the preceding four weeks. If you simply sweat at the kitchen table, pouring over the want-ads (do they even have those anymore?) or walk the streets looking for help-wanted signs, you don't count. It's gotta be an application, résumé or interview. I know, résumé is hard to spell and harder to write if you're looking for a blue-collar job because it's French and the French are too intellectual to actually work. Go figure.
I don't make this shit up. It's in the government documents (except for the part about the French).
Get this: Persons who are only "marginally attached" to the labor market—those who want and are available for a job and have actively looked for a job within the preceding 12 months but not within the preceding four weeks—are considered neither employed nor unemployed and thus not part of the labor force.
Holy shit, I'm not out of a job, I'm only marginally attached. Well, thank god for that. Margie and the kids will sure be glad to hear it.
And then there's the whole living-wage thing
I guess employers were thinking that workers would all stream back in grateful droves to the shit-jobs the pandemic sent them home from. But a lot of souls were searched during those long lock-down months and even the most desperate soul wants a shot at a decent wage. So they're slow to come back. Fifteen bucks is the new minimum, a least in the working-for-wages guy's mind. They're absolutely right, there's nothing outrageous about earning thirty grand a year when you're working forty-hour weeks.
So conservatives are throwing scary terms around
It's what they do. You have to learn the scary language and pass all the tests or they won't let you be a Republican. Stuff like rampant inflation and too generous welfare and the old disproven theory of higher wages means less jobs. It's all in the the conservative bible. But there's a song about that:
It ain't necessarily so. No it ain't necessarily so. The things that you're liable to read in the bible, it ain't necessarily so.
Inflation comes from scarcity, but when prices rise because wages rise, it's a sign of a healthy middle-class returning. Too generous welfare is simply a lie by those who never had to live on it. As for higher wages meaning less jobs, that's balderdash (a really great word no one uses anymore). Work still has to be done and the economy thrives when bus-boys have enough cash to drop in at Wal-Mart on the way home.
We're moving inexorably back toward a single-worker family income
And that's wonderful news for everyone. Child-care is not only expensive, but kids need a parent at home. Don't count on that parent being a woman. There's a quietude that spreads across a family when dinners are away from the TV, someone is there to prepare breakfast and weekends are spent in one another's company. The Chinese proverb says 'may you live in interesting times' and these are certainly interesting times today. Education is changing and so is the definition of work. The world is turning electric and along with renewable energy the costs of manufacturing, as well as staying warm in winter and cool in summer are about to plummet.
What will we do with our fascinating new opportunities?
I haven't the slightest clue. The technology curve that has been rising slowly and steadily for the past several decades is now headed straight up. Google, Amazon and Tesla didn't even exist thirty years ago. Young women are swarming into politics and, no matter the temporary friction, old white men are over in the hierarchies of business and politics.
It seems we're about to reverse-engineer America
Cities will be greener. With the ability to work from almost anywhere, small towns will regenerate because the small-town life is so rich. Strip-malls are over, thank god. Greener, livelier, better designed and more amenable uses will be found for what we moved away from. I feel the doom-sayers are out of step. Maybe with a little imagination, the entire planet will relax just a bit.

This 1988 Nissan 300ZX was sold new in Moline, Illinois, acquired by its current owner in California in 2001, and relocated to North Carolina in 2013. Power is from a 3.0-liter V6 paired with a four-speed automatic transmission, and the body has been refinished in Flair Red Pearl over a gray leather interior. Additional work under current ownership included service of the air conditioning system as well as replacement of the rear main seal, timing belt, water pump, valve cover gaskets, shocks and struts, brakes, electrical and ignition components, tires, and more. This Z31 shows 129k miles and is offered by the seller on behalf of its current owner with manufacturer's literature, tools, partial service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean North Carolina title in the owner's name.
The car was finished in Flair Red Pearl (#726T) from the factory, and was repainted in 2006. Exterior equipment includes glass T-top roof panels and pop-up headlights, the latter of which are shown raised in the photo gallery below. The seller notes a chip on the right rear quarter panel and scuffing on the gray lower front valance.
Factory 15" alloy wheels are mounted with Sumitomo HTR A/S tires manufactured in 2015. The front brake pads, rotors, and left front caliper were replaced at 119k miles, while new rear pads were installed and the rear rotors resurfaced at 123k. New rear shocks were fitted at 98k miles, and the outer tie rods and front struts were replaced at 101k.
The cabin is trimmed in gray leather with matching carpets, floor mats, and plastics. Equipment includes power-adjustable sport seats, automatic climate control, a factory stereo with a nine-channel graphic equalizer, and steering wheel switches for the audio and cruise control systems. A rear hatch strut was replaced in January 2019, and the air conditioning system was recharged with R134a refrigerant in April.
Instrumentation includes a digital speedometer, a light-bar tachometer with a 6k-rpm redline, and a six-digit mechanical odometer showing just over 129k miles, 74k of which were added by the current owner. A fault in the cabin air vent vacuum switching manifold results in hot air blowing instead of cold air during acceleration according an image in the gallery.
The 3.0-liter VG30E V6 sends power to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. A maintenance inspection and oil change were performed in January 2019, while the following components have been replaced under current ownership:
Air conditioning evaporator and condenser at 87k miles
Valve cover gasket at 103k miles
Timing belt, water pump, and thermostat at 104k miles

Westfields romped into the final of the HFA County Senior Challenge Cup last night when they hammered Hereford Premier Division side Kingstone Rovers 11-0 at allpay.park as the goals flooded in.
Westfields, who had beaten Hereford FC and Wellington to reach the semi-final stages, were in no mood to be beaten and raced into a 4-0 interval lead through Ben Miller twice, John Mills and a Kane Kahaki penalty which gave them a commanding lead.
After the interval the goals flowed at an alarming pace when Aidan Thomas scored a hat-trick, Ollie Butler weighed in with 2 more, substitute Keanu Cooper added one and Mills grabbed another goal to make the route through to the final and meet Pegasus Juniors on Tuesday 30th April at Edgar Street.
Westfields now look forward to Saturday's home Midland Football League game against Long Eaton United in a bid to end a barren run which has seen them only take 2 wins from their last 10 Midland Football League games.
