Q: Incorrect json.net serialisation I'm having trouble serialising an object graph using NewtonSoft JsonConvert. Dapper can work in two ways: the Query(string sql[, object args]) method can return an IEnumerable<dynamic> or the generic Query<T>(string sql[, object args]) method can return IEnumerable<T>
It works when I don't type the result:
stringifiedDynamicData
[{"Record_Key":2,"Factory_Key":7,"EnteredAt":"2018-11-20T09:03:03.374",...}]

When I specify a type for the result, results look like this:
stringifiedTypedData
[{}]

Here's the code that produced the above.
IDbConnection syb = new OdbcConnection(connectionstring);
var sql = System.IO.File.ReadAllText("./powerbi.sybase");
var typedData = syb.Query<Status>(sql);
var stringifiedTypedData = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(typedData);
Console.WriteLine("stringifiedTypedData");
Console.WriteLine(stringifiedTypedData);
var dynamicData = syb.Query(sql);
var stringifiedDynamicData = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(dynamicData);
Console.WriteLine("stringifiedDynamicData");
Console.WriteLine(stringifiedDynamicData);

Debug inspection of the variable typedData reveals a collection of Status objects with one element, as expected. The fields have expected values, so it was a bit of a surprise when JsonConvert.Deserialize(typedData) returned [{}]
Adding this
  var foo = new {
    A = "wibble", B = 6
  };
  IEnumerable<object> bar = from x in new object[] { foo } select x;
  var quux = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(bar);
  Console.WriteLine("quux");
  Console.WriteLine(quux);

produces the expected result
quux
[{"A":"wibble","B":6}]

which implies that the data is the problem.
so it isn't some sort of config problem.
The Status class has this form.
public class Status
{
  float AdtechAmt { get; set; } = -1;
  float AssemblyError { get; set; } = -1;
  string CutToFinish_Avg { get; set; } = "-1";
  ...
}

I've just added the default values to see whether that makes a difference (no).
I think I've been using Typescript for too long, it just hit me that these properties are not public.

A: Fundamentally this is Bonehead Programmer Error, with a twist of Typescript.
Both C# and Typescript support properties without a modifier. But while unmodified Typescript properties default to public, in C# they default to protected. As there is no requirement for a class to have any public properties, no static compiler error occurs.
Dapper uses reflection and can see the protected members, and successfully matches them to dataset fields, and populates them. Dapper's successful use of the class for typing results further masks the failure to make the properties public.
The first visible effect is the property-free serialisation. The reason there's no exception is that all the objects (one row in this case) have been successfully serialised, with all the public properties (none) represented in the JSON string.

Twitter has not been kind to the sloppy, borderline disrespectful Aaliyah movie that debuted on Lifetime this weekend. As it is wont to do, though, the internet has turned lemons into lemonade and turned a disappointing movie into a highly entertaining meme that sends up the network's, um, confusing casting. There's already like, 12,000 of them flying around, so we rounded up our ten favorites, below, but if you just can't get enough, head over to Timbaland's Instagram, where the offended producer is posting 'em nonstop.

Toyota's missed opportunity - the 2009 Bahrain GP
One of today's biggest car manufacturers in the world, Japanese automotive legends Toyota once competed in Formula One during the 2000's with little success. The team was well-funded and had one of the biggest budgets on the grid but results were never consistent. However, at the 2009 Bahrain GP, they had a chance to rectify that.
Toyota entered F1 in 2002 after a full year of testing and it took until the 2005 Chinese GP to achieve it's first podium finish. That season became it's most successful but despite being in the sport for eight seasons, it never managed to win a race, finishing in second five times. As a result, Toyota is widely regarded as F1's most expensive failure.
Today, we look back at Toyota's best opportunity to win a race - the 2009 Bahrain GP.
The 2009 Bahrain GP
The 2009 campaign started well for Toyota with two third place finishes in the first three races. Former Renault driver Jarno Trulli, now in his fifth season with the team, finished third in Australia while Timo Glock repeated the same result in the monsoon hit Malaysian GP. With these results, the team came into the Bahrain GP in third.
Toyota were one of three teams to start the season with the controversial double-diffuser with the other two teams being Williams and Brawn GP. This diffuser used the rear crash structure in order to generate additional downforce. This was protested by the other teams on the grid but the FIA deemed it legal.
In the desert heat of Bahrain, Trulli claimed Pole position in the final few seconds of Q3. Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel had topped both sessions prior but it was the Italian who romped to pole, his first since the United States GP in 2005.
To make it even better, Glock put in a lap to go with less than three tenths behind in second to make it a front-row lock-out for the Japanese team for the first time.
Trulli on Pole in the Bahrain desert with Glock for company
Both cars were lightly fuelled so were predicted to make their first pit-stops of the race a few laps before the other cars around them. Toyota President John Howett said that the team were using a "fairly aggressive" strategy come the race.
He said: "We were pushing to be on the front two rows because of the tyre situations. If it's hot, the soft tyre is quite difficult to manage so we need some free air if we are going to use it."
So by using a different tyre strategy in comparison with the other teams be fruitful for the red and white cars who locked-out the front-row of the grid?
At the start, too much wheel spin for Trulli allowed Glock to take the lead. The fast-starting KERS equipped cars, most notably McLaren's Lewis Hamilton, had a great start and pressured Trulli for second on the run to turn 4. On exit, Hamilton went wide and Trulli fought back to re-take the position.
Hamilton couldn't keep with the leading Toyota's and by the start of lap two, he had fellow Brit and championship leader, Brawn's Jenson Button behind him. Button got the move done into turn 1 and was now in 3rd.
On lap 11, Toyota's differing strategy was put in place when Glock pitted from the lead to go onto the Medium tyre. The other teams were going onto the Supersoft tyre at this stage and saving the Medium tyre for their final stint. One lap later, Trulli pitted and he was sent out on the Mediums as well.
Race leader Button was pulling clear of the pack behind, setting good lap times as Vettel couldn't find a way past Hamilton's McLaren. Over team radio, Button was told to give "everything he had."
The Medium tyres were not working well as Trulli was passed by the Renault of Fernando Alonso. Team-mate Glock wasn't faring any better and a heavy fuel load wasn't helping. Over team radio, Glock said: "I'm losing everything, everything, the bloody tyres are not working at all."
The chance of a one-two finish and the team's first victory in the sport had slipped from their grasp.
Button made his pit-stop and rejoined ahead of Trulli while Glock had lost so much time that Hamilton appeared ahead of him in seventh.
By the time of their second stops, Button comfortably led while Trulli was now on the Supersoft tyres. Vettel stayed out a few laps longer than the Toyota driver and had put in good lap times. When he pitted and rejoined on the Medium tyre, he was ahead of Trulli.
In the final 16 laps, Trulli was quicker than the Red Bull ahead of him but couldn't find a way past. He finished just two seconds behind in third as Button crossed the line to take a third win in four races.
Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen edged ahead of Glock in the final ten laps to take sixth but Glock kept close to the Finn to be within eight tenths at the chequered flag.
After the race, Trulli said: "I am a little bit disappointed because I was waiting for the first win for Toyota. We did a very long second stint on Medium tyres, I was trying to fight and actually it was a really hard fight. "
"I wasn't extremely quick but I was competitive on Medium tyres - then eventually Sebastian took the position after my last stop - then he was on Mediums and I was on Softs, and I was pushing him. I was quicker but there was no way to overtake him."
Toyota remained third in championship with Trulli and Glock in the top five in the championship.
The 2009 Season was to be the last for Toyota as the team pulled out of the sport after huge financial losses due to the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. 13 podiums in 140 race with three Pole Positions and the highest of fourth the championship in eight seasons was not enough to keep the manufacturer in the sport.

Q: Want to generate xy graph from 2 wave graph in J2EE (from MySQL DB)
*

*I will have to create two columns in MYSQL database and insert data in that, each column contain 8-9 k data.

*Then i need to plot this data in chosen GUI in three separate plots on one screen as shown in attached image.

*Time interval for X-axis for plotting individual graph is 0.001.

*Then i need to plot these two waveform data against each other as XY graph as shown in graph.

How to achieve this using j2ee because the condition is that xy graph should appear within 2 or 3 second
Regards,
Prashant

A: This answer is pretty incomplete and only a pointer in the general direction.
The solution consists of three steps:

*

*Getting the data from the database.
There are basically two options here:

*

*use simple SQL using JDBC

*use JPA

I assume you already have knowledge of that, if not there are many tutorials on both topics.

*Creating a graph using java.
I suggest using http://www.jfree.org/jfreechart/index.html but there are probably alternatives. In this scenario you would want to render to an (temporary) image file.
You will need to play around to find the actual graph you like.

*Sending the graph to the browser.
Sadly I currently don't know how to do that.


BOND: In minority communities generally, black communities particularly, you keep hearing people talk about a crisis of leadership.
BOND: Is there a crisis, and if there is a crisis, what is it?
JONES: I don't think there's a crisis. You know what the problem is?
JONES: We're looking outside of ourselves for leaders. We're looking outside. We're looking -- where is the leader? No. We've got to look inside, what is it that I can do?
BOND: But society, both the larger society and the smaller society that you and I are part of, it wants leadership figures. It wants identifiable people -- "That's the leader, that's the man or woman in charge."
JONES: Right, but you know -- our -- we -- because of the complexity of our world and life today, it's very, very difficult. We're moving away from that. In many ways we're more fragmented. Although you know, Internet and technology, communication and e-mail and all that, we're still fragmented because we're living in our own cocoons. Our families, our gated communities, our environments wherever we are. And it's interesting, it's almost at inverse proportions: the more we can have mass communication, the faster we can communicate, the smaller our areas of real interaction with other people. You know, we have -- the -- just the vastness and the speed of communication have – what is it, impersonalized, is that the word I'm looking for?
JONES: Impersonalized our relationships. You know, we don't talk to each other any more, get our facial expression, interaction. We read it on e-mail. And so, as we are able to communicate faster, more globally, our spheres of interaction with people is getting smaller. Therefore, we are even more fragmented.
JONES: And more impersonal. That's right. And that's what happening to us, which means this whole idea of leaders means looking to one or two or three people that can lead a fragmented community, because even with our communities, we're more fragmented. You know, I don't think it's going to get us anywhere. We have got to – when you said, leadership – we've got to develop leadership. We've -- our children have got to think and understand that they can bring something to the table.


In the last two articles, having considered statistics as a tool or a formal system, I alluded to the abuse of statistics in the media and scientific research. Here, I will be more specific about the misuse (or potential abuse) of one of the most popular statistics, the average.
The word "average" has a root in Latin "havaria", which means the amount of compensational money, which each individual was called upon to pay in the event of a ship being wrecked. In modern English, "average" acts both as a verb and as a noun. Nowadays, the average is usually referred to as the arithmetic MEAN or simply the "mean" by scientists and statisticians.
More than a century ago, a French mathematician, Pierre Louis developed and advocated his "numerical method" for the appraisal of therapy. However, he was opposed by most of the leading clinicians of the day. Claude Bernard, arguably the father of modern experimental medicine, was critical of the application of mathematics in medicine; he declared: mathematicians AVERAGE too much and reason about phenomena as they construct them in their minds, but not as they exist in nature". He went on to urged doctors "to reject statistics as a foundation for experimental therapeutic and pathological science". Ironically, almost 100 years later, his disciples have abandoned his words almost completely. Statistics has become an indispensable part in medical research. Almost every medical publication nowadays includes "statistical method" section as to show its credence. So, what was/is wrong with the AVERAGE?
Regardless of what is wrong with this statistic, when confronted by a mass of numbers, many people find confortable refuge in the average. The average, as we realise, is meant to measure the central position of a group of individual values. People are quite happy that the average will represent the set of numbers (or observations); it can be calculated without any fancy arithmetic. The idea of average is so handy that it is not surprising that several kinds of average have been invented so that as wide a field as possible may be covered with the minimum misrepresentation. The average is so popular that every body understands averages - until they come to use them.
the mean is 3, a value which entirely conceals the abnormal value 11.
The mean, by itself, fails to show up any information about abnormal values; and in many branches of science, it is often the abnormal values in which the statistician may be particularly interested. Nevertheless, if a mean is sufficiently representative of a set, then any sudden divergence from it will be emphasized by comparing each actual value to the mean value. In other words, the mean does provide a basis whereby abnormal values may be recognised.
The mean is a representative of set (a) because it is the result of averaging similar quantities; that is within a reasonably small range. The mean of (b) is not representative of the whole set because it is the result of averaging dissimilar quantities. The arithmetic is correct in each case, but the resulting mean of set (c) is meaningless as a representative value. Similarly, only the measurements of things with common identity should be averaged. It is not easy to define exactly what constitute common identity in this context and it is really a matter of common sense. For example, tigers and domestic cats are both members of the cat family, but it would be riduculous to compare statistics of one with the other or to aggregate the two sets of data, calculate the mean and then claim that the result constitute a statistical mean for the cat family in general.
To quote the mean value of $20 is to suggest that the capital of the company is mainly held by small holders. The truth, however, is that one member holds more than 50% of the capital and therefore has control of the company. Furthermore, the calculated mean is twice as great as the individual holdings of 99% of all the members.
If one accepts the two yearly means as showing that no changes have occurred between the two years, there is a shock awaiting anyone who looks back at the departmental details from which the means were derived. There has been a shifting of profitability as between departments and the real position is very different; yet comparison of the two means hides the change entirely.
2 / (1/6 + 1/2) = 3 km/h.
The harmonic mean is always appropriate mean for rates and prices.
The geometric mean is the result of an arithmetic process, but it is not the same process. The geometric mean is calculated by multiplying together all the values in a set and then extracting the nth root, where n equals the number of values. Thus, the square root is required to obtain the geometric mean of the above example.
At this point, it is worth to note that there are at least three kinds of averages, which are appropriate to different kinds of data. In fact, there are two other averages: the median and the mode, which are not mentioned in this article due to their simplicity. However, the inappropriate use of statistics in general, and average in particular, is very prevalenet in either popular media and scientific research. The medical literature is filled with an immense statistical information and endless contradictory findings. There are good evidences suggesting that the inappropriate use and wild manipulation of statistics have contributed significantly to this tragedy of confusion of knowledge. People are writing books and papers based on inappropriate application of statistics. Some of these authors are very popular because they are not afraid to provide solutions to problems that have not yet been solved. However, some investigators do not realise that they have made statistical errors due to either ignorance or lack of statistical knowledge. Whatever the reason, to rely on the analysis of data, the nature of which one does not understand, is the first step in losing intellectual honesty. Therefore, understanding the principle behind a statistical analysis is critical to the interpretation of data. I hope this little article helps you a little bit.
The MODE is the sample values that occur most frequently. There may be more than one mode. There may be no mode at all if all the observations occur in equal frequency.
the mean is 32.15 and the mode is 26 (it occurs twice). The median is the value with rank (50/100)(15+1) = 8; in this case the 8th observation is 30, i.e. the median is thus 30.
or MEAN = (3*MEDIAN - MODE) / 2.

Huawei Mate 10 Manual – The available colors will be mocha brown, black, champagne gold and rose gold.
Huawei had planned to launch the Mate 10 Pro through a partnership with AT&T, but after that failed, it should still be available in the United States in the spring through online retailers like Amazon and Best Buy for $799.
The Huawei Matte 10 features a uniform design with very rounded edges and a metal and glass finish. It measures 3.06 inches wide and weighs 186 grams. It is important to take these dimensions into account when considering versatility and use. The matte 10 retains a 16:9 format screen, so it goes against the current trend among flagships. This means that it is still a little difficult to use the phone with one hand.
The back glass has a main camera with two lenses that protrude slightly. Both have a metal ring to protect the Leica lenses. The camera area has a band that reflects the light in a different way, which draws attention and gives the device a touch of elegance.
Huawei Mate 10 Manual – On the front we see the screen in the standard format 16:9. This is the same as we saw with mate 9, but different from Matte 10 Pro, which presents a 18:9 format. But despite having a wide format, the frame is a little thinner compared to matte 9. The format of the Mate 10 feels a little less ergonomic in the hand. It gives you a certain sense of insecurity because it's heavy and slippery. However, it comes with a transparent cover that can help alleviate this feeling.
Below the screen is a fairly narrow band that includes the fingerprint reader, which works very quickly. In the upper part of the frame there is a camera dedicated to the selfies, proximity sensor, speaker and a hidden LED in the left corner.
Huawei Mate 10 Manual – The frame is metallic, but it has been lacquered. It has a surprising sheen and gives the same impression as the glass on the back. There are visible bands in the upper and lower frame to insulate the contact of the different antennas. On the left is the tray to insert a NanoSIM card and a MicroSD.
The 16:9 format not only gives you a slightly "retro" feel, it also features an infrared port and a minijack for the top of the frame. The Mate 10 Pro also has the infrared port, but the 3.5 mm Minijack was removed and the box does not come with an adaptor for it.
Huawei Mate 10 Manual – Compared to the Pro version, there are some differences on the screen. The diagonals are quite similar, but since they have different proportions, they don't look exactly the same. Both devices have very fine frames. The screen occupies 81% of the front surface of the device, which, for comparison purposes, is 2% less than the IPhone X.
The matte 10 Pro has an AMOLED panel and the Matte 10 uses an IPS LCD panel. Both screens have square corners and are very good, but if we put them next to each other, the AMOLED is, of course, more flashy. But the IPS screen of Mate 10 is still the highest in the range with excellent brightness, sharpness and sensational colors.
This is the latest feature of Mate 10 and allows you to use your smartphone as a desktop computer. Among the previous experiments to converge a smartphone and a PC, I find that this version is the most convincing since the tablet BQ Aquaris M10 was paired with Ubuntu Touch.
Simply plug the device into the display and it will be ready and running. You can also use the smartphone's screen as a trackpad to move the cursor around the big screen and use the virtual keyboard to write. It's very easy and simple as well as fast.


International movie celebrities were scared almost to death by a failed PR stunt staged by an internet company, which hired fake Islamic State-looking commandos to make a sea landing at a hotel where the stars were staying during the Cannes Film Festival.
According to RT online, guests at the five-star Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc said that men dressed as "IS-like" terrorists and flying a black flag resembling the jihadists' banner approached on a speedboat before docking at the resort harbour.
The landing at the French Riviera resort, which several Hollywood stars were using as a hideaway during the Cannes film festival, caused a number of VIP guests to panic, police said on Saturday.
"We were caught off guard," American publicist JR Savet told the Hollywood Reporter. "And then someone screamed and people jumped out of their chairs and started moving quickly to the swimming pool," Savet added.
"It was pretty scary. The fact that men appeared to be dressed like an IS militia group was quite shocking," he further added.
A spokesperson for Oraxy, the "world's first private global marketplace reserved… for Ultra High Net Worth Individuals," confirmed to the Hollywood Reporter that the whole thing had been a publicity stunt, claiming that they coordinated with maritime authorities.
The start-up company has apologized for the PR stunt, saying it had not intended to scare people.
Cannes is on high terror alert for the 12-day film festival, with thousands of security officers deployed in the city, while a warship patrols the bay and snipers are posted on rooftops.

The most serious sin in one's life
by Pope Shenouda III
A person often forgets the sins he committed, but there may be certain unforgettable sins.
David the Prophet for instance asked the Lord in his prayer to forget his many sins, saying, "If You, Lord, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?" (Ps 130: 3) "Do not enter into judgment with Your servant, for in Your sight no one living is righteous." (Ps 143: 2) "Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions." (Ps 25: 7) Even concerning his errors, he says, "Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults." (Ps 19: 12)
However, there was a certain sin which he could not forget about which he said, "My sin is always before me." (Ps 51: 3)
It left a deep impact on his emotions and memory, and shook him strongly, so he said, "I am weary with my groaning; all night I make my bed swim; I drench my couch with my tears." (Ps 6: 6)
Samson likewise committed many sins, but the most serious sin that shook him all through and he could not forget was revealing his secret to Delilah. It made him break his vow, and his enemies conquered him, put out his eyes, and made him a grinder in prison (Judges 16).
Like David and Samson was Solomon.
He sank deeply in worldly pleasures with peace of mind and conscience (Eccl 2: 9, 10). Then he committed his big sin, which made God angry with him (1 Kgs 11: 9- 13), by going after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians and Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites, and built a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab and for Molech the abomination of the people of Ammon (1 Kgs 11: 5- 7). Solomon did not forget this sin, nor did God forget it, for God inflected punishments on him, saying, "If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men and with the blows of the sons of men." (1 Sam 7: 14) To chastise him, God set adversaries against him, Hadad the Edomite, Rezon the son of Eliadah, Jeroboam the son of Nebat (1 Kgs 11: 14- 26).
A girl, for instance, may fall in sin with a young man and wakes up late.
With a sleeping conscience, the sin may seem simple, but she will wake up to find that she has lost her virginity or even conceived of a child. She may think of abortion and murder of the baby, but as this needs money, which she does not have, she falls in many lies! It is a big unforgettable sin implanted deep in her mind!
A fault may even destroy one's whole life.
A student who cheats in the exam will be dismissed from the university, and will be exposed to disdain and bad reputation! A person who falls in drug addiction, will have his nerves and name destroyed, even after being healed! More serious is the state of a person who contracts AIDS through sin. Seeing his health destroyed and death is nearby, he cries within blaming himself for such a fall, but very late!
The sin of Adam and Eve had its effect on all mankind, with all the serious consequences that continued for generations.
Their sin caused the corruption of the whole human nature, and needed the Incarnation and the Redemption. It was so serious that God let its effects continue until now. God said to Adam, "In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; For dust you are, and to dust you shall return." And to Eve He said: "I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; In pain you shall bring forth children." (Gen 3: 16- 19)
These consequences continue until now, in spite of the attempts of man to overcome them!
Some sins caused the perdition of those who committed them.
Some perished in their sins, like Judas Iscariot. Undoubtedly, he had many sins, as being a thief, and stealing from the money-box that was with him (Jn 12: 6)!
However, the biggest sin which he could not bear and made him hang himself was his dishonesty to his Master! (Mt 27: 5)
A similar sin was that of the sons of Eli the Priest, for which the Lord said, "The iniquity of Eli's house shall not be atoned for by sacrifice or offering forever." (1 Sam 3: 14) In anger the Lord judged Eli himself for the iniquity of his sons which he was aware of, but did not restrain them (1 Sam 3: 13).
Another similar sin was that of Ananias and Sapphira his wife, by which they deserved to die immediately without any chance for repentance (Acts 5)!
Other sins extended for long generations.
An example is the curse of Canaan by our father Noah because of disdaining his father (Gen 9: 25). It continued until the days of the Lord Christ and He used it in His talk with the Canaanite woman (Mt 15: 26). Another example is the punishment to those who, led by pride and arrogance, built the Tower of Babel. The Lord's punishment was confusing their language (Gen 11: 7), which punishment continued up to the present day.
Many sins are not recorded in the Holy Scripture, but it is generally said, "They have all turned aside, they have together become corrupt; There is none who does good, no, not one." (Ps 14: 3)
On the other hand, certain sins and their punishments are recorded in the Scripture, such as:
The adultery committed by the whole creation which led to the flood (Gen 6); the homosexuality that led to the destruction of Sodom (Gen 19); the attempt to steal priesthood by Korah, Dathan, and Abiram for which the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up (Num 16); the dishonesty of Absalom to his father David (1 San 6- 18); the denial of Peter and the Lord's forgiveness to him (Mt 26; Jn 21); the desire of Ahab for the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite (1 Kgs 21); the worship of idols by Jeroboam the son of Nebat, Ahab, and others ( Kgs 12); and many other unforgettable sins, some of which even were committed by prophets.
Saul of Tarsus, as an example, never forgot that he had persecuted the church, although he had done this by ignorance before believing in Christ, and although he repented and became an elect apostle who did many wonders and signs and labored much for the sake of spreading the gospel message. He said about himself, "Although I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent man; but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief." (1 Tim 1: 13) He mentioned his sin again when speaking about the appearance of the Lord Christ to him after His resurrection, "Last of all He was seen by me also, as by one born out of due time, for I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God." (1 Cor 15: 8, 9)
The seriousness of sins lies not in their number, but in their awfulness.
The sin of Simon the sorcerer, though not repeated, was a serious sin, because he wanted to purchase the gift of God with money! (Acts 8: 18- 30) Likewise was the sin of Herod, who accepted the words of the people 'The voice of a god and not of a man!' An angel of the Lord struck him immediately, because he did not give glory to God, and he was eaten by worms and died (Acts 12: 22, 23).
Peter's sin of denial was not repeated, but its seriousness was in its weight, because sins are not counted but weighed.
If to its weight is added its repetition, the matter will be more serious. Such sins lie in the subconscious and deepen their roots turning into a source of dreams, thoughts, and lusts. They become a nature in man, and a habit sticking to man's nature as part of his personality, hard to get rid of.
It is like something one tastes and likes, so cannot dispense with!
One in such a case is ready to repent for all one's sins except for this one sin! It is flowing in his blood, deep in his emotions and desires. However, some do not forget their sins because they trouble their conscience when repenting, therefore they groan with much pain exclaiming how they reached such a state and dropped to such a level. Others remember their big sin while still captive to it, unable to resist, which is harder!
Such a person needs a great push from outside that may rescue him from the pit in which he has fallen, and that may tear up the ties binding him.
He needs the work of the grace and of God's Holy Spirit in order to hate such a sin and be no more attracted to it.
Other sins may trouble a person and shake his conscience when he wakes up.
Examples of such a sin are the sin of apostasy, blasphemy, and doubt. Yea, for doubt easily enters man's mind and hardly comes out. It makes a person lose the simplicity of faith that he had before and get lost in endless intellectual matters. If doubts concern somebody, a person will lose forever trust in him.
Some other sins are unforgettable because of their consequences.
If a husband, for instance, abused his wife and she could not bear it, she might leave him and go to her parents' home. Any reconciliation attempts may be for no avail because the insult was deep. She may lose her love for him and form a bad idea about his character and way of dealing. He will remember that fault with regret, considering it the biggest sin in his marital life. The matter may develop more seriously to reach courts.
A sin may become the biggest sin in one's life if it is irremediable.
If a monk, for instance, got married breaking his vow, and lost his virginity and his good reputation, and his priesthood if he was a priest, he would not be able to restore all this. Imagine if this monk lost his wife or differed with her, he will find himself in complete loss spiritually, bodily, socially, and dogmatically!
Sometimes a person's biggest sin is due to a defect in him, like the love of getting news about the others, which thing may cause him to lose his friends and the others. Such a person craves for news, searches for them, asks others and listens stealthily, then makes conclusions. He may even address embarrassing questions to get some news out of the answer. He may exchange news with others like him. Finally, he finds himself bearing a big and heavy burden of news, so he turns into a news conductor!
Such a person makes of the others news the talk of everybody, to appear as if he knows all secrets and is an object of trust.
People may hear such secrets, but some may avoid him lest they hear something spiritually harmful, or become themselves an object of his news. He will find nobody around him, and troubled by his thoughts, he will lose trust in everybody.
Again, he may turn from a news conductor to a news inventor!
The hardest sin indeed is that which sticks to a person more than skin to flesh. It becomes like part of his nature and character. It may turn into a psychic disease within him causing other perhaps incurable diseases, whether ethical or social.
To Live, We Must Die
When I say, "To live, we must die," it cannot be in the physical world, for we know that in the physical world, we live until we die. But then, we may ask, "How must we die, that we may live forever?" The answer is that we must die to our pride and to our other sins.
What It Means To Have a Friend in Jesus
Jesus is that friend you need at all times, in times of joy and peace or in times of sorrow and disappointments, etc. He is always there for His friends.
The Seven Simple Ways To Forgiving
Forgiveness is, basically, about letting go. Releasing the wrong done to you, or by you. This is really a quite uncomplicated principle, but typically extremely tough to achieve. Forgiveness is often a decision.

Instagram is becoming more popular. In fact, the photo-sharing network now has 500 million monthly active users, a 100-million increase from September 2015. All this popularity means that an Instagram business account gives you the potential to reach a huge audience. At the same time, though, it means you have a lot of competition standing in the way. Fortunately, we at San Diego Media have compiled a few of the cleverest ways to showcase your content and bound ahead of your competition.
Although you have the option to use up to 30 hashtags on Instagram, aim for about half that number. Above all, make sure the hashtags you choose are relevant to your business and avoid using trending ones that have nothing to do with your brand just because you want to get noticed (that won't work). Add your industry's most popular hashtags as well as those that are average in popularity and those that are rarely used. In addition, creating unique hashtags is important for enabling users to find only your content when they search a particular hashtag.
Want your message to really stand out? A text overlay on a photograph is a simple way to spruce up the traditional Instagram post – and the best part is that you don't need to be a professional graphic designer to make it happen. Whether you want to advertise a sale or simply highlight the name of your business, user-friendly programs like Photoshop, PowerPoint and Canva provide the tools you need. The text overlay will take your post to the next level of professionalism and give your post an edge over your competitors' accounts.
As we mentioned in a previous post about which images to include on your website, appealing to emotion is a major aspect of advertising. Does your business sell furniture? Don't simply post a photo of a recliner – post a photo of someone curled up in the recliner, enjoying an evening at home. Does your business sell electronics? Post a laughing child with a tablet in hand because your product is that simple to use. A familiar environment will catch the customer's interest in a way a product alone never can.
Because Facebook owns Instagram, connecting these two social media networks will bolster your marketing efforts by helping centralize your content. For example, creating an Instagram tab on your Facebook page will allow you to share your #instas instantly with your fans, thereby automatically expanding your reach.
You check your Facebook Page and your Twitter mentions. Make sure to check your brand's hashtags with the same consistency, as customers are likely to communicate with you through them. But responding to comments is the bare minimum. You should actively like and comment on your followers' product-related posts, and even @mention followers/customers who have awesome pictures of your products.
Starbucks, which is consistently cited as one of the best-branded companies on Instagram, regularly spotlights artistic customers who create cool images – regardless of whether the image has a Starbucks product in it or not. Going above and beyond, the company even updates its Facebook page with these pictures. By making its Instagram profile about a lifestyle and not just a product, the coffee giant has found a way to connect with fans authentically.
Instagram is primarily a photo-sharing site, but it offers video as well. A 15-second clip can be a great way to help followers familiarize themselves with your business. For example, you could post a quirky clip of your employees having fun or a message from your CEO.
Instagram is also a great platform to build excitement around the launch of a new product. Before the actual launch date, you can post one clip – or a series of clips – offering clues about a new mystery product (similar to how Apple unveils the latest gadgets). The day of, publish a behind-the-scenes clip of your employees preparing for the launch. The suspense is a great way to spark a genuine curiosity about your product.
Have you seen any improvement in your Instagram popularity after using one of these tactics? Do you know of another good trick? Let us know!

Jay-Z Marketing Assignment
Jay Z Is an Individual who came Into spotlight as a Hip Hop artist being very gifted with lyrics and composing some of the best beats ever heard. Now days when you hear the name Jay Z more things come to mind than a hip hop artist but also I marketing genius. In this paper I intend on analyzing the four components of the marketing mix and how they influence Jay Z and his brand. Marketing Mix Analysis Overview Overall the Jay Z brand has quiet of an impressive overview he has built a very good and successful resume for him-self and others.
The Jay Z brand began in 1996 hen he released his debut album Reasonable Doubt, from then on Jay Z has put his mark on much more then Hip Hop music. He a very smart entrepreneur and a marketing genius who now has his brand name incorporated with Record Labels he has created, he has a movie label, a clothing line, a premium vodka, a sports bar in New York. He has started charitable organizations, a scholarship fund, a toy dive during Christmas time, and not to mention a very successful music career that has led to many awards. He also is part owner of an NAB franchise and a spokesperson for many other brands.
Product The Jay z brand consists of so many products, there isn't just one to explain. Let's start from the beginning the very first product was his music which has been very successful through the years and still is. He has the most number one singles ever, he has multiple platinum and gold albums. Another product he has Is other musicians he has mentored and who have prospered under his guidance of his two record labels. He has a very popular vodka line which is a very successful product, a night club In New York which is very popular with celebrities and athletes.
A clothing nine he started In 1999 was also a success It grossed $300 million In 2004, and a filming industry that has made 4 films. Now days a very important product is Jay Z himself who endorses more popular brands such as Rebook in which he has his own shoe line, Budweiser in which he serves as co-brand director for Budweiser Select. There are so many different Investments he has his money In It makes Donald Trump look ridiculous. Pricing The pricing of the products when It comes to albums are competition pricing this Is Including his own and the muscular albums that are under his label. Hen It comes o his clothing line and vodka line they are demand-based pricing these lines are considered elite and are up there with the other elites within the clothing and vodka line, they are both In high demand and two great selling lines. The pricing Is right Len- line with the other brands and there would not be any reason for a change. Placement Jay Z has recently expanded his clothing line Orca Wear to which he will be opening to expand the clothing line into Japan, which is amazing Just to think another 300 stores opening added to a clothing line that made $300 million Just six years ago.
With this deal the brand is now being sold in the right outlets across enough channels throughout the world. Promotional Mix There are countless commercials I can think of where Jay Z is endorsing some type of product, or hosting some type of event. Having his name and face recognized with some of the biggest brands in the world today or hosting one of the most watched awards program helps his brand achieve more and more popularity, this itself is a great way to advertise, give your brand the PR attention it needs, helps with sales promotion and personally sale your brand.

Stephen Colbert began the "Late Show" on Wednesday by praising Donald Trump's response to recent natural disasters in Mexico City and Puerto Rico, before calling out the president for weighing in on Emmy ratings.
"Now wait a second; that can't be right. I swear I heard somebody say at the Emmys that they were the highest rated ever. I find this hard to believe," Colbert said, referencing former press secretary Sean Spicer's surprise appearance.
On Sunday night's 69th Primetime Emmy Awards, host Colbert characteristically infused a number of Trump jokes in his politically-driven monologue. Colbert said he wasn't offended by Trump's jab.

Алан Джей Хийгър () е американски физик и химик, лауреат на Нобелова награда за химия от 2000 г.

Биография
Хийгър е роден в Су Сити, Айова в еврейско семейство. Израства в Акрон, Айова, където баща му стопанисва магазин. Когато е на 9 години, баща му умира и семейството се премества в Су Сити.

През 1957 г. получава бакалавърска степен по физика и математика от университета Небраска-Линкълн, а през 1961 г. защитава докторската си дисертация в Калифорнийския университет, Бъркли. От 1962 до 1982 г. работи в Пенсилванския университет. През 1982 г. започва работа като професор в департамента по физика към Калифорнийския университет, Санта Барбара. Изследванията му водят до зачеването на много нови компании. Самият той е основател на Uniax, която по-късно е придобита от DuPont. През 2001 г. основава Konarka Technologies, която произвежда тънки и гъвкави слънчеви клетки от полимери, но през 2012 г. компанията банкрутира и е ликвидирана.

През 2000 г. печели Нобелова награда за химия заедно с Алан Макдайърмид и Хидеки Ширакава за "откриването и разработването на електропроводими полимери". Те публикуват резултатите си върху полиацетилена през 1977 г. Стратегията им е да внасят примеси в полимера по същия начин, по който се получават проводимите свойства на полупроводниците.

Modern technology allows us several options for the restoration of damaged or lost teeth for our Cincinnati area patients. When teeth are weakened, chipped, discolored, or otherwise affected, a dental crown restores shape, size, and durability in an attractive, long lasting manner. Crowns may be called caps, as they fully encapsulate the tooth structure for complete transformation.
Dental crowns began as full metal caps. Today, the most popular choice of material is porcelain, which may also be fused to a metal substructure for added strength. Porcelain crowns are extremely durable, and are crafted to match the shape, color, and size of surrounding teeth precisely for the most natural fit and appearance.
Repairing a tooth damaged by a large cavity or injury that has caused fracture.
To preserve strength following root canal therapy.
The dental bridge is a fixed prosthetic that spans a gap created by a lost tooth or teeth. Dental bridges have been used for many years to restore chewing function and a lovely aesthetic. This fixed appliance is comprised of two custom-made dental crowns, between which a prosthetic tooth is fused.
On each side of the gap, the adjacent tooth is prepared and fitted with a dental crown, which allows the artificial tooth to remain firmly situated in the empty space. This artificial tooth sits on top of gum tissue, and it can be flossed so that bacteria can't hide beneath the appliance.
Restoration with a dental crown or bridge is typically completed in two visits to our inviting, friendly office in the West Chester area of Cincinnati. During the first, the affected tooth or teeth are prepared for their new dental crown, and options for material are discussed with your doctor. A digital scan is taken, which will be used in the dental lab for the design of your restoration, and a temporary crown is situated. In approximately two weeks, your new appliance will be ready for evaluation and placement.
The team at West Chester Dental Group is skilled at restoring teeth for a successful, attractive result. Contact us to experience comfortable, gentle dental care.


The flexibility of floor beef can't be understated within the kitchen as it can be used for therefore many mince dishes which might be cheap as well as nutritious. I´m a fan of your hubpage, it is vitally useful for these us that have the pasion of automobile design. I'll get again to the other comment space as soon as I find a good picture of the Tahoe, one that looks like mine – it's a base mannequin for government use.
HI Sats, I believe you are able to do it to propose yourself for work at the age of 27. Its okay. There are numerous Transportation design masters around right now, greatest colleges are Art Center in Pasadena, Royal College of Art in London, IED and IAAD design schools in Torino Italy, SPD in Milan italy, and others…search for them on web and you'll find all infos. How is it that my TELEVISION invoice was $30 12 years in the past and is now $eighty. After a changing careers, I pretty much make the identical amount of cash now as I did then (I'm happier now), but my TELEVISION bill is almost triple. The truth is… I guess it is.

How is it that termites are able to build towering cathedrals out of mud without referring to a set of blueprints? How do ants, without a leader telling them what to do, know how to assemble themselves by the thousands into living rafts to move across a fast-flowing stream? After all, the brains of ants are smaller than the "quarter of a small pin's head," as Charles Darwin put it, so they are incapable of planning and organizing like we are.
Social insects accomplish their complex feats of unsupervised coordination by sensing and responding to traces left on surfaces in their environment. These traces act as signals to those who come afterward, cueing them to build on the first signal. The more traces left behind, the stronger the signal becomes. For example, an individual termite might inadvertently start a new cathedral by leaving a dollop of mud on the ground. Another termite passes by and responds by adding its own dollop. The more the mound of mud grows, the more termites deposit mud on it, eventually constructing elaborate structures without anything more than a simple biological imperative—a kind of biological programming—to add to an existing bit of mud. This kind of indirect information-based coordination is called "stigmergy".
We might think of stigmergy as a close cousin of free market economies, where individuals acting independently to satisfy their personal needs have an unplanned mass effect of promoting the welfare of the group. But there's an important difference: stigmergy doesn't assume rational actors who weigh the costs and benefits of taking a certain course of action. Instead it assumes millions of biologically programmed agents who instinctively respond to simple cues in their environment.
Stigmergy is one of nature's great tricks. Can human beings adopt stigmergy and put it to work for them? We'll find out over the next few decades, as the Internet of Things (IoT), virtual reality, and machine intelligence create new and richly provocative ambient experiences of the world around us, laying the foundation for surprising stigmergic economies. These economies will take us well beyond the dynamics of free markets to a world where humans and machines collaborate at every scale to solve complex problems in simple ways. They will introduce us to self-defining products and services, self-assembling supply chains, and self-organizing social structures. They will emerge from a complex ecosystem of physical, digital, and mental "surfaces" to support new forms of signaling. They will use blockchains and smart contracts to translate signals into incentives for trade. Stigmergic economies may well turn today's institutional forms into emergent games and collaborative art forms that put entertainment front and center as both humans and smart machines adapt to the rapidly changing ecosystems of the 21st century.
Here's how it could unfold.
Termite cathedrals start with a single surface. Stigmergic economies start with massively many surfaces for leaving signals. Beyond mud droppings that add up to termite cathedrals or pheromones that create the instruction set for armies of ants, today's digital world has thousands of new surfaces for individual actors—humans or machines—to leave their daily marks. Other actors read those marks as signals and build on them, often creating new value. For instance, they remix media and fork code. They set the value of a song by downloading it. They build communities and global movements with simple memes that get replicated, reinterpreted, and rehashed to build group identities that people may be willing to die for.
In the coming years, these surfaces for signaling will dramatically proliferate as the digital world is embedded ubiquitously in the physical world. The IoT will turn billions of physical objects into new surfaces for signaling—from microscopic plaque-clearing circuits inserted into human arteries to sensors on self-driving trucks.
Imagine a stigmergic ecosystem within the rivers that flow through the world's famous cities. A duck sheltering in the underbrush at the edge of the Hudson might leave a dropping that a genetic sequencing sensor the size of a thumb drive (like Oxford Nanopore's tiny DNA sequencer, the MinION) would automatically detect and analyze, transmitting the result on an internet of living things (like Oxford Nanopore's Metrichor cloud service for real-time molecular analyses), where artificially intelligent algorithms have learned to recognize early permutations of the H1N1 virus. These algorithms, in turn, alert not only scientists and the Centers for Disease Control, but anyone who is fishing with an Internet-connected fishing reel or incubating chicken eggs with an Internet-controlled sensor—all without a director of public health or CNN to get the message out.
As matter of all kinds, from barrels of olive oil to piping hot pizzas, is routed efficiently to its destination with autonomous vehicles, both the shipments and vehicles become smart surfaces where ratings, monetary value, health value, bacterial genetic data, traffic density reports, and other crowdsourced markers can be recorded, amplified, and incorporated into other information flows. And the crowd in this case is not necessarily the human crowd at all. It's a lot of smart, connected devices getting socialized through stigmergy—each usingdigital traces to activate its next move.
The results are likely to span the spectrum from triumph to catastrophe. Smart algorithms might respond to millions of bio-signals to anticipate the need for precision drugs and protocols in a Zika-infested region. But they might just as easily conjure euthanasia "services" that fall prey to the Tay-bot syndrome, learning the worst that the crowd, both human and non-human, has to offer.
Still, an instrumented IoT is just the tip of the iceberg for new signaling surfaces and the value exchanges they can create. Even as the great onboarding of connected devices unfolds, the coming decade will usher in 3D immersive virtual realities to incorporate these objects into their imaginative worlds. They will turn sensor-laden mechanical pencils into scalpels in virtual operating rooms or conductor's batons in a global symphony of a million instruments. Every virtual reality will be a new surface—an ecosystem of surfaces, really—where people and things can collaborate via traces, markers, and signals that add up to much more than any individual programmer, product designer, or marketing director could imagine.
Eventually these ad hoc collaborations of signals will cross the boundaries of individual virtual realities, creating what science fiction authors have perhaps imagined as inter-dimensional networking: communication across parallel realities. They may even cross the boundaries of the mental realities as neuroscience turns the human brain into a read-write surface.
Of course, signals alone do not guarantee economic coordination or cooperation. In the world of massively many new signaling surfaces, the resulting flood of signals could just as easily breed chaos as it could self-organize supply chains. Every stigmergic system depends on attention to the marks or traces that stimulate successive actions. Often this attention is hardwired into the individual actors: termites are biologically wired to look for piles of mud where they can deposit their own contribution. But in most human systems, extrinsic incentives enter into the equation. And the most pervasive incentive is money.
Cue the blockchain. The distributed computing model of the blockchain has already given rise to Bitcoin as a fungible and scalable digital currency. Crudely stated, Bitcoin miners take the place of Wall Street speculators, making their money by paying attention to billions of individual transactions—"signals"—and verifying their accuracy in the Bitcoin ledger. The verification service they provide through the distributed tracking of transactions takes the place of centralized banks and their computers. It enables rapid trade between individuals and across organizations, and even global borders.
Meanwhile, dozens of organizations are experimenting with blockchain architectures as a way to create other kinds of incentives for participating in a stigmergic economy—that is, to share data via wallets, smart contracts, and so-called oracle services. These incentives encompass the traditional human incentives like learning, good health, entertainment, access to resources, and ultimately personal reputation, all of which can be represented and traded on the blockchain.
The blockchain has the potential to make these kinds of values as tangible and perhaps as fungible as money. For example, in early 2016, IFTF convened thousands of gamers in a "Learning Is Earning" game. The goal was to imagine how a blockchain ledger might be used to validate learning, especially learning acquired through the performance of microwork or community tasks. Every dollar earned in certain tasks might be translated into a learning credential, which in turn, could command more dollars on the next gig.
Incentives don't have to be human incentives, however. They can simply be programmed goals and objectives. Autonomous vehicles might be programmed to maximize their fuel budgets, with intelligent algorithms that track real-time pricing for electricity along their travel routes and even balance selling spare charge versus taking on passengers to achieve the best fuel outcomes. These "decisions" by the vehicles, captured in digital records on the blockchain, might in turn trigger the algorithms of smart grids to balance demand across entire regions by incentivizing new rhythms of energy use. These rhythms may ultimately redefine the workday the way the automobiles of the 20th century led human managers to adopt a fixed 9-to-5 workday. A "hive" of algorithms might even self-organize to create DACs and DAOs: distributed autonomous corporations and organizations that aggregate functions, resources, people, and objectives using stigmergic signals, complex incentive structures, and the blockchain.
Smart machines, smart matter, and smart algorithms will undoubtedly do a lot of the heavy lifting in stigmergic economies, responding to small signals to carry out minute distributed tasks guided by diverse incentives. And as they self-organize into DACs and DAOs, they are likely to create landscape-changing patterns of organization that might never occur to any CEO, business school brainiac, or international trade negotiator.
To anticipate this new landscape of organizational structures, look at the cutting edge of today's so-called procedural games like "Minecraft" or "No Man's Sky". These games start from a single seed—you might think of this as a stigmergic signal—and use algorithms to spawn entire universes. "No Man's Sky" offers up to 18 quintillion planets to explore, each with unique life forms that evolve from the single seed that sparks it. The algorithms mimic biological evolution to create distinctive creatures—artfully rendered in high resolution—from the seed DNA of each planet.
Now imagine that every signal on every surface in the future world of ambient machine intelligence is a seed for a game—for a physical-digital universe that both humans and machines can explore, shape, and share. This is the future of stigmergic economies: a vast and endless gamescape. In this gamescape, people play with biomimetic agents of all kinds to simulate quintillions of biomimetic worlds. It's easily a gamescape scaled for a global economy of a mere 8 or 9 billion humans.
Ultimately, such stigmergic economies are well suited to times of rapid and potentially devastating changes in the planetary ecosystem. These are times when forking and mixing, replicating and iterating can generate the novel biological, social, and digital life-forms that enhance evolutionary adaptation. Selection speeds up at times like these, and stigmergic economies offer the palette of surfaces, the innovative incentives, and experimental structures to adapt more rapidly. They promise to try out all possibilities and uncover those that offer the most resilient future. Ultimately, this may be what stigmergic economies are all about—building resilience into the coming worlds of biomimetic machines.

Door 7:00PM - Film 8:00PM
American romantic musical film written and directed by Damien Chazelle, and starring Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone as a musician and an aspiring actress who meet and fall in love in Los Angeles.
The film's title refers both to the city of Los Angeles and to the idiom for being out of touch with reality.
At the 89th Academy Awards, La La Land received a leading six awards, including Best Director, Best Actress (for Stone), Best Cinematography, Best Original Score, Best Original Song ("City of Stars") and Best Production Design
"Audacious, retro, funny and heartfelt, La La Land is the latest great musical for people who don't like musicals – and will slap a mile-wide smile across the most miserable of faces."
— Ian Freer, Empire
"La La Land isn't a masterpiece (and on some level it wants to be). Yet it's an elating ramble of a movie, ardent and full of feeling, passionate but also exquisitely controlled."
— Owen Gleiberman, Variety
"It's a film that re-enacts, with rare originality, a classic role for the movie medium—escapist entertainment in troubled times."
— Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
"For a film that starts with a slightly campy musical number that could alienate viewers just as easily as charm them, this romance sure makes the leap to greatness quickly."
— S. Johoanna Robledo, Common Sense Media
