This is a fresh installation of the latest edition.
Where are you seeing this and where are you deleting it from?
Please explain. Also what the URL?
What's the URL to your forums?
And again where exactly are you deleting the ?> from?
According to this thread, he is deleting them in php files.
Bad idea, if you ask me..
Syntax errors in my post ? Well, I'm a french-speaking Swiss user..
You need the ?> at the end of a php file, just make sure there is no white space after it.
now what about this one, when I try and enter forum permissions?
Reupload the original resources.php file from the zip file. make sure you upload in ASCII and overwrite the one on the server.
lord knows im the king of newbies, but I had the same cookie error on a fresh install.
I reinstalled, but this time remembered to disable the google toolbar, and this problem went away.
I followed exactly the same procedure, the only difference was the toolbar.
I'm of the opinion that toolbars are evil. I have a number of inexplicaple problems that went away after removing the Google Toolbar. Thanks for bringing this up.

CNY bookings soften for travel to Bangkok
RETAIL HOTSPOT: The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) maintains that the impact from the political demonstrations on the tourism scene will remain minimal.
Nisha Ramchandani
BANGKOK - As political tensions continue in Bangkok, travel bookings to Thailand out of Singapore appear softer this Chinese New Year, which coincides with the Feb 2 snap polls slated to take place in the troubled capital.
In line with weaker demand, Singapore Airlines (SIA) is scaling back capacity by cutting 19 flights over a six-week period starting from Jan 14. The airline, which typically operates five flights daily to Bangkok, is giving affected passengers the option of a refund or being put on a different flight.
"(The protests) have definitely created an impact on the upcoming Chinese New Year period as most of (those who) have not booked their holidays will not take the risk to visit Bangkok in view of the prolonged political turmoil," said Alicia Seah, marketing communications director at Dynasty Travel, adding that bookings to Bangkok over Chinese New Year have dropped by 50 per cent. "If the political situation does not improve by early February, we forecast a decline of about 70 per cent (in travellers) to Bangkok for Q1 2014."
Travel demand is also typically more subdued when Chinese New Year falls fairly close to the year-end holidays, as it does this year.
Meanwhile, Chan Brothers Travel reported that bookings to Bangkok are still coming in for the upcoming festive season, "albeit slower". The tour and travel agency has nearly 100 customers departing for the Thai capital that week, which is comparable to last year, it said.
The strong Singapore dollar vis-a-vis the Thai baht is one reason Thailand remains a popular destination, noted CTC Travel. But those eschewing Bangkok in favour of other Asian destinations are opting for Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Cambodia, or even other parts of Thailand, travel agents said.
The anti-government protests erupted over two months ago after the Puea Thai party – headed by caretaker Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra – tried to implement a bill that would allow her brother, exiled former premier Thaksin Shinawatra, to return to the country. The opposition party, which is pushing for political reform, is boycotting the February elections with protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban vowing to "shut down" Bangkok on Jan 13 to force the resignation of Ms Yingluck's government.
The turmoil has hit the baht and the Thai Stock Exchange hard, with the former losing ground against the greenback for a record 12th day yesterday as it sank to 33.01 baht, while the benchmark SET closed at 1,224.62, down a further 0.5 per cent.
Last month, the anti-government protests took a more violent tone and culminated in a handful of deaths, prompting some cancellations, postponements and rerouting of travel plans. Dynasty Travel saw 20 per cent of the 250 travellers headed to Bangkok in December cancelling their trip or diverting to other cities, while Chan Brothers registered a 20 per cent drop in travel to Bangkok compared to December 2012.
"The general feedback is that while there have been some cancellations, people are still travelling to Bangkok," said Anita Tan, chief operating officer of the National Association of Travel Agents Singapore (Natas). "Knowing how to deal with emergencies that may arise and how to avoid problematic areas give (travellers) the necessary peace of mind to continue with their travel plans."
Travel agents have been advising travellers to buy travel insurance, as well as to steer clear of hotspots where the protests have been taking place.
While 2013 figures are still being crunched, nearly 824,840 visitors from Singapore went to Thailand in the 11 months spanning January to November 2013, according to Thailand's Department of Tourism website.
Despite the political impasse, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) is projecting that Thailand will see a total of 26.1 million tourists for 2013 as a whole, resulting in tourism revenues of 1.149 trillion baht (S$44.1 billion). This would represent an increase from 22.3 million tourists in 2012 and spend of 960 billion baht.
For the period January to November, international tourist arrivals to Thailand already hit 24.13 million, up some 21 per cent year-on-year.
TAT's deputy governor of marketing communications, Sugree Sithivanich, maintains that the impact from the political demonstrations on the tourism scene will remain minimal, despite the impending elections.
"The demonstrations have most (of) the time been held in a peaceful manner, and have not affected most tourist attractions and activities in Thailand," stressed Mr Sithivanich in an e-mailed response yesterday.

Minneapolis Enacts Plastic Bag Ban June 1!
MINNEAPOLIS – Grab those reusable shopping bags. Beginning June 1, the city of Minneapolis will begin a ban on many types of plastic bags. The measure came after feedback from the public, with many worried about waste and environmental impact plastic bags have on oceans, lakes, streams, and storm drains.
Grocery Bagging Championships are Real!
To the surprise of many, there is a national championship for the fastest grocery bagger. NBC's Joe Fryer meets a young pro training for the title and Sheinelle Jones goes head-to-head with Craig Melvin to see who can bag the best. N'Take bags have been used at the championship for several years.
N'Take would love to celebrate Earth Day with you! Enjoy this promotion on your next bag purchase.
Guests were gifted a huge gift bag by N'Take Custom Reusable Bags, filled with goodies. N'Take believes putting more into every bag, for our clients, their customers and the environment. "Guests included Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, Beyoncé, Carrie Underwood, Adele and Michelle Obama."
HARTFORD — Connecticut would join Hawaii and California in banning plastic bags at retail checkouts under a proposal that would bring Westport's successful 5-year-old ban to the state's other 168 municipalities.
Lobbyists for the state's supermarkets are opposed to it, but with a new Legislature and new leadership on its Environment Committee, state Rep. John Hennessy, D-Bridgeport, believes the measure can pass this year, especially after California's statewide ban was approved in September and will take effect in July.
Cutting down on the use of plastic bags is a waste-management tool, creates fewer emissions at garbage-to-energy plants and takes away wind-blown bags from trees and bodies of water.
California Gov. Jerry Brown signed the nation's first statewide ban on single-use plastic bags Tuesday.
The measure, first proposed by Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla of Los Angeles, would prohibit single-use plastic bags at grocery stores and large pharmacies in 2015 and at convenience stores in 2016.
About 100 local jurisdictions in California already have adopted similar bans, including Los Angeles and San Francisco.
HARTFORD, CT (WFSB) – One state lawmaker is now hoping more people will make the switch to cloth bags, and is calling for a tax on plastic bags. That's what environmentalists are hoping for – a ban on plastic bags in Connecticut. Close to 100 cities and counties across the country have already done it, the biggest city being Los Angeles. People in those cities told various news outlets that the ban is working fine.

The World Is Now the Opposite of Everything it Is 'Supposed' to Be
He Who Pays the Piper…
Jezebel Spirits Thrive When There Is No One Willing To Stand
Saying No: The Winter of My Non-Consent
Understanding Deep Politics
ALTERNATIVE POLITICAL ANYALSIS AND COMMENTARY
Fellow Libertarians – If You Like RFK, Jr., You'll Also Like Del Bigtree
On-line shoppers often receive product suggestions, telling them that, because they liked X, they may like Y. Below is a similar kind of suggestion.
If you're one of those libertarians who recently discovered RFK, Jr. and you like him, you'll probably also like Del Bigtree.
The libertarian world is slowly waking up to both the importance of vaccine freedom and the importance of RFK, Jr.'s work to that issue. Amen, and long overdue, on both counts! This author has been harping on the importance of vaccine freedom, and the significance of RFK, Jr's work, for a long time. Such harping is contained in my May 16, 2020 article, "The COVID-19 War on Liberty Has Been Brewing for Years" and in other articles written before and after that date.
RFK Jr.'s new book, The Real Anthony Fauci, seems to be playing a big part in why he is finally receiving mass attention from libertarians.
I came to understand, long before COVID-19 arrived, and to a large extent through material put out by RFK, Jr.'s organization (Children's Health Defense (CHD)) and Bigtree's organizations (Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN)/ The HighWire (HW)), that society was headed toward a rights crushing crisis that would center on the issue of infectious disease and vaccines.
In the pre-COVID-19 era, when many libertarians were ignoring the issue of vaccine freedom, RFK, Jr. and Bigtree were busy: gathering evidence of corruption perpetrated by the state and its corporate cronies related to infectious diseases and vaccines; organizing opposition to that corruption; using the courts to oppose the corruption; and opposing legislation aimed at expanding vaccine mandates. Their pre-COVID-19 activity in these areas allowed them to hit the ground running when COVID-19 showed up and the government added a new infectious disease and a new vaccine to its shenanigans.
The already impressive efforts of RFK, Jr. and Bigtree to stop health-related tyranny can be supercharged by collaboration with the libertarian community and by adding expertise within libertarians' bailiwick (on nullification, decentralization, private membership associations, mutual aid societies, private certification agencies to protect consumers, free market solutions for meeting health care needs, etc.). RFK, Jr. and Bigtree have identified and exposed the problem (state/government cronyism and corruption) and are fighting it, but collaboration with libertarians will help them to identify the best solutions to it (i.e., private health care and consumer protection solutions, not more government regulation and bureaucracy to "fix" the problem).
Libertarians now seem to widely recognize that the powers that be are perpetrating a rights-grabbing scam under the pretext of protecting us from COVID-19, and that collaboration with RFK, Jr. will assist us in defeating that scam. This is progress and it fulfills a couple of my hopes. However, I would like for two more of my hopes to be met: that libertarians will widely collaborate with Bigtree like they are now doing with RFK, Jr., and that libertarians will broaden their battle against COVID-19 vaccine mandates to include fighting the existing childhood vaccine mandates.
The libertarian world will benefit from collaborating with Del Bigtree.
1. Bigtree has a weekly internet show, the HighWire, which is solely donor funded, so it has no advertisers. Because it is not Big Pharma funded like most of the MSM, the Jaxen Report, the news portion of the show, provides the news of the week related to health and health-related tyranny, without Big Pharma's spin. Bigtree interviews scientists, medical professionals, investigative journalists, freedom advocates and others with information critical for sorting out where the true weight of the scientific evidence lies with respect to infectious diseases and vaccines and for understanding the dystopian world we're living in.
2. Bigtree is teamed up with an exceptional attorney, Aaron Siri, who has dug up a great deal of useful information. Those who saw the October 2021 debate between Scott Horton and Bill Kristol, and loved watching an arrogant insider elitist (Kristol) get taken down a peg by someone he underestimated, would also love watching recordings of Siri's 2018 deposition of Stanley Plotkin. Plotkin is a beloved hero of the vaccine industry and clearly didn't realize what he was walking into when he allowed himself to be deposed by Siri. Siri gathered much information damaging to the vaccine industry during that deposition. Additionally, Siri has been highly creative in his litigation strategy. He hasn't let the vaccine manufacturers' shield from lability stop him from bringing actions. He's focused on bringing actions against agencies that "regulate" the vaccine industry, and those suits have also yielded lots of information damaging to the industry. Siri has a great Substack newsletter, Injecting Freedom.
3. Bigtree has shown a willingness to collaborate with libertarians and to promote our views. In 2019, he appeared at Anarchapulco and had a segment on his show about his appearance there. In 2021, he interviewed Ron Paul. He also recently interviewed G. Edward Griffin.
4. Bigtree has more than earned his libertarian stripes. Like RFK, Jr., he has been working his tail off since well before COVID-19 arose to protect Americans' right to make their own vaccination decisions. He sounded the alarm bell early on that infectious disease would be the new pretext for controlling society and that vaccine mandates would expand from children to adults. Further, he put himself in the crosshairs of a powerful global cabal by doing so.
Libertarians should launch an offensive against the entire vaccine mandate scheme, as one shebang, attacking the childhood mandates already in effect while attacking COVID-19 vaccine mandates.
RFK, Jr.'s and Bigtree's respective fights against COVID-19 vaccine mandates are part of a larger war they've been waging on vaccine mandates for years, which started with fighting childhood vaccine mandates. I respectfully suggest that libertarians who believe that vaccine tyranny began with COVID-19 have it all wrong.
First, the state's act of mandating vaccines without proof of their necessity or safety is not a one-off that occurred in connection with COVID-19 vaccines. Vaccines on the CDC's childhood schedule are mandated upon schoolchildren. This occurs to varying degrees depending on the jurisdiction (state). The need for children to receive the CDC's recommended vaccines has never been proven, and neither has the safety of those vaccines (received individually or cumulatively). More information about this is contained in my October 22, 2021 article, "Fauci Actually Got Something Right, But For the Wrong Reasons" and also on the CHD, ICAN and HW websites.
Additionally, the issue of COVID-19 vaccine mandates is inextricably intertwined with the issue of the already existing childhood vaccine mandates and the issues are most effectively addressed together, as one larger issue. When COVID-19 arrived on the scene, if there hadn't already been childhood vaccine mandates in place throughout the U.S., and general acceptance of those mandates, the state wouldn't stand a chance at universally mandating COVID-19 vaccines.
The plan for universally mandated COVID-19 vaccines, and a lifetime of other mandated vaccines, rests upon a foundation of psychological acceptance and societal norms laid down via childhood vaccine mandates. The idea that it is proper for government to make vaccination decisions for the public became widely accepted and normalized within the context of those mandates. Further, it should be noted that, although childhood vaccine mandates involve injections into children's bodies, the decision-making rights they usurp belong to adults, the children's parents.
By libertarians failing to fight the already existing childhood vaccine mandates as they fight COVID-19 vaccine mandates, they are acting inconsistently and taking a disjointed, fragmented approach.
Libertarians finally, collectively, going on the offensive and attacking the already existing childhood mandates when they attack COVID-19 vaccine mandates will cut the legs out from under the entire vaccine mandate beast. It will attack the psychological beliefs and societal norms feeding it. If libertarians do collectively go there, with minimal effort we can show that the childhood vaccine mandates should be squelched, like COVID-19 vaccine mandates, for nearly all of the same reasons that the latter should be squelched. And, we can use in support of our arguments evidence already gathered by RFK, Jr. and Bigtree—of decades' worth of state and corporate fraud surrounding the childhood vaccine schedule.
This will slay the vaccine mandate beast in its entirety, not partially slay it, in a Whac-A-Mole fashion, by solely focusing on COVID-19 vaccine mandates.

Samal mayor to counter suit against bridge adversaries
By Chris Fabian on January 12, 2020
Mayor Al David Uy of Island Garden City of Samal has vowed to file counter charges against those who are opposing the Samal-Davao Bridge.
"File Writ of Kalikasan, I will counter sue with economic sabotage," Uy said in his Facebook post.
The mayor branded the issue concerning the P23 billion Samal-Davao Bridge as "a game of oligarchs."
Uy said that plan for the bridge has been revised for several instances since 1979 as influential land owners whose properties will be affected have been objecting.
The mayor said they already expected the opposition especially that properties of influential families will be affected.
Uy, in a separate Facebook post, enumerated several properties that might be affected by the proposed bridge project.
Among those he mentioned included the Floirendos.
The Floirendos, however, denied they are opposing the project.
"Igacos Mayor Al David Uy dragging the name of the Floirendos in the so-called oligarchs opposing the construction of the Davao-Samal bridge is outright malicious and a brazen lie," said former Rep. Antonio Floirendo Jr. in a statement.
Floirendo said they have no business interests "that would be negatively affected by the construction of the multi-billion bridge to which many Dabawenyos have long dreamed of."
Floirendo said they welcome the construction of the Davao-Samal bridge "as this would be good for Igacos and for the economy of the island in general.
Floirendo is a former Second District congressman of Davao del Norte, an area that covers Samal Island.
Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte revealed last week that a family, which she did not named, has filed an opposition to the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH).
The family is expected to file a Writ of Kalikasan before the court to stop the bridge construction.
The Writ of Kalikasan, a legal remedy, may be sought to deal with environmental damage of such magnitude that it threatens life, health, or property of inhabitants in two or more cities or provinces.
The bridge will connect Samal Island to mainland Davao, via Agdao area in the second district of this city.

Wine Fiesta this year was a bit of a special event because of their feature on natural wines. These are wines that have no additives, chemicals and preservatives and could also feature organically grown grapes without pesticides. Basically, hipster wine, which is becoming sort of a trend. Anyway, I had the pleasure to attend Wine Fiesta at Clifford Square last month which had 350 wine labels from 70 winemakers around the world, with 9 of these labels as natural. I was there because of a special wine pairing menu with renowned restaurant in Singapore, Burnt Ends.
Here's the menu for the day. I am guessing it's called a 4x4 surprise pairing because not many people will think to pair natural wines with charcoal grilled food.
First course: Sweet, fresh scallop which went down so well, with a mouthful of CRFT's Gruner Veltliner Longview Vineyard 2015. There's a 2016 description on their website, which said "grapes are picked in a the cool of the morning," and "fermented cool and slow" with minimal additives. How's that for artisanal? Personally I thought it was quite a refreshing and easy-to-drink wine. I was expecting something rougher, I guess?
Thanks CRFT for bringing your wines to Singapore! Cheers.
The flavours got heavier as we went along, both the wines and the food.
Second course: Kingfish and Miso with BK Wines' Rosé 2016. This was probably my favourite food and wine combination. I loved how the scrumptious kingfish played with different textures, and the fruity rosé just elevated the fish to greater heights.
Third course: Jamaican Chicken, paired with Lucy M Noire de Florette 2016. This pinot noir from Australia is 100% natural - and provided an equally strong counterpoint to the smoky slightly charred Jamaican chicken. I wished there was a bigger portion of the food so I can chew on more of it!
Lastly, we tried the Burnt Onion and Bresaola Tart, which was paired with Ochota Barrels Texture like Sun 2016. Unfortunately, this was the most jarring pairing in the sense that the food made the wine taste more bitter than it should. The food itself was also perhaps a little too complicated for my liking, even though the tart base was yum. Still it was fun to experience how wine can be changed when you try it with different food.
It was indeed a surprising pairing after going through the 4 courses with Burnt Ends at the helm. I had a really fun time at this year's Wine Fiesta 2016, even if it was slightly humid and very crowded! I thought the food vendors at the event was well-curated (from Good Chance popiah to fine Italian risotto by MONTI, among others like Tin Hill Social and Cheek by Jowl) and of course the selection of wine labels. My friend bought so much Argentinian malbec because they were surprised to find it at the event. Till next year, can't wait to taste what it will be like.
Thanks to Straits Wine Company for the invite!

1923 Was Lit: Marius Hentea on Tristan Tzara
27th Mar 2020	 In Misc
Tags: Marius Hentea, Modernism, That Year Was Lit, Tristan Tzara
by Russell Bennetts
Riotous Hearts: Tristan Tzara's Le Cœur à Gaz
The year following modernism's annus mirabilis was bound to be a disappointment in the annals of literary history, for what works could surpass Ulysses or The Waste Land?
For Tristan Tzara, 1923 found him in the literary doldrums. Dada, the movement he had helped establish in Zurich and had brought to fame in Paris, was done and dusted. He had abandoned, after only a few chapters, his 'interminable' novel Faites vos jeux (Place your bets) and was more likely to be spotted in fashionable nightclubs 'cultivating his vices' (money and love) than in the literary pages. But writers do not easily let go, and a writer like Tzara was not going to fade into the literary night without a fight.
A fight is what erupted when the great theatrical spectacle of the Paris season took place on 6 July 1923 at the Théâtre Michel. Rather than novelty, the soirée presented old Dada hits, new films by Man Ray and Hans Richter, and a re-staging of Tzara's three-act play Le Cœur à gaz (The Gas Heart), whose characters are the human face broken into its component parts: EYE, EAR, MOUTH, NOSE, NECK, and EYEBROW.
If the shattering of the human face was a very real post-war reality, Tzara's theatrical staging of the human face laid waste to the theatre. The play opens with EYE dividing the world into 'statues jewels meats' (the bourgeoisie) and 'cigar button nose' (the masses), but any social message is quickly overwhelmed by an all-encompassing chaos, the undifferentiated characters speaking senselessly, at cross purposes, unable to agree on anything. This is very much Ionesco and Beckett avant la lettre.
But the great fight that broke out at the Théâtre Michel was not the result of the play's avant-garde form. The mere fact that Tzara was putting on a soirée, an entertainment, enraged the artistic purity demanded by the former Dadaists who now coalesced around André Breton. The inclusion of poetry by Jean Cocteau, who was particularly detested by that group, got everyone hot and bothered. The fact that Picasso, the undisputed Olympus of the arts in Paris, was mentioned in desultory terms led to the stage being stormed, choice words being exchanged, and André Breton using the quaint bourgeois prop of a walking stick to break someone's arm.
Was this part of the performance, a return to notorious Dada shows in which the line between the staged and the spontaneous was always in doubt? The audience soon found out, though, that the police coming in to restore order were not marionettes but real-life flics who escorted Breton, a fils d'un flic himself, out of the building. After a prolonged intermission, just before midnight, the curtain was ready to go up for the staging of Le Cœur à gaz, but before the actors could show their respect for the faux-pompous stage directions (the actors should give 'to this piece the attention given to a masterpiece of the power of Macbeth'), Breton's friend, the poet Paul Éluard, demanded an accounting from Tzara. The police intervened again, and when Tzara went on stage to apologise for all the disturbances, Éluard was joined by some friends in rushing the stage. The bitterness and hatred dividing the world of letters in Paris was so deep and intense that the audience was now taking sides with more than yelps. As riotous fighting broke out in all four corners of the hall and spilled out into the streets by the Gare Saint-Lazare, the owner of the theatre could be heard whimpering 'My nice little house, my nice little house'.
Marius Hentea is the author of Henry Green at the Limits of Modernism (Sussex Academic Press, 2014) and TaTa Dada: The Real Life and Celestial Adventures of Tristan Tzara (MIT Press, 2014), which has been translated into German and Romanian. His essays have appeared in MLQ, Modernism/Modernity, Modernist Cultures, Narrative and PMLA.

Mossimo and Loughlin plead not guilty to new charges.
Lori Loughlin Pleads Not Guilty In School Admissions Scandal
UNITED STATES—Actress Lori Loughlin, 55, pleaded not guilty to new bribery charges filed against her and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli, 56, in the college admissions scandal, on Friday, November 1.
Loughlin and her husband were among 11 parents charged last week by a grand jury in Boston, Massachusetts. The couple both entered pleas of not guilty on Friday to new charges filed against them in the college admissions scandal that was first made public on March 12. The couple also waived their right to appear at the November 20 arraignment.
Prosecutors claim that the couple conspired with William "Rick" Singer, a Newport Beach consultant, to commit fraud, money laundering, as well as a federal program bribery in order to secure their children's entry into USC.
In previous meetings, prosecutors warned all 11 parents they could be facing new charges if they did not plead guilty initially. With the new charges, new evidence surfaced, such as emails from Giannulli to his accountant in April 2017 explaining a $200,000 invoice he received from Singer. In the email, Giannulli writes:
"Good news my daughter … is in USC. Bad is I had to work the system."
The couple is said to have paid anywhere between $250,000-$500,000 in order to bribe and ensure their daughters acceptance into USC via the athletic department's official, Donna Heinel. The couple planned to get their daughters, Isabella and Olivia Jade, into the reputable university by posing them as athletes on the crew team, despite neither one of them ever rowing in the sport.
A conspiracy to commit federal program bribery charge can bring the couple a maximum sentence of up to five years in prison, along with a fine of up to $250,000. With the couples previous charges of money laundering, they can face a total of 40 years in prison if found guilty on all of the counts.
Actress Felicity Huffman, best known for her role on "Desperate Housewives," was amongst the 11 parents charged in this scandal. Huffman was sentenced to 14 days in prison for paying $15,000 to have her daughter, Sophia's SAT scores changed and improved in order to get her accepted into universities. Huffman only served 11 of the 14 days she was sentenced to and was released last month.
Loughlin is best known for playing Aunt Becky in the hit 80s TV series, "Full House." Her husband is a fashion designer who founded the Mossimo brand.

The Ben Wyvis distillery was a producer of single malt Scotch whisky between 1965 and 1977.
The Ben Wyvis distillery was started by the Invergordon distillery, and was built on the Invergordon grain distillery complex. It was intended primarily to produce whisky for use in Invergordon blends, but did produce a very small number of single malts. When Ben Wyvis was dismantled in 1977, the stills were saved and eventually used by the Glengyle distillery.
Legitimate single malt bottlings from the distillery's 1965-1977 operation are exceptionally rare.
Bottled over a decade ago, this is a very special Signatory edition of Ben Wyvis, the single malt made at Whyte & Mackay's Invergordon distillery for a brief period between 1965 and 1976. Almost all Ben Wyvis went straight for blending so this is rare indeed. Just 84 sets were released, each with a miniature of the spirit included in the box.

Q: Using getline to read but user need to use enter twice To allow a multiple words user input I use getline and I flush the stream according to this answer with this code :
while(!everyoneAnswered()){
    string name;
    std::cout << "enter your name : ";
    if (getline(std::cin, name)) {
        std::cin.clear();
        std::cin.ignore(std::numeric_limits<std::streamsize>::max(), '\n'); // flush stream
        std::cout << "enter your age : ";
        int age;
        std::cin >> age;
        std::cin.clear();
        std::cin.ignore(std::numeric_limits<std::streamsize>::max(), '\n');
        // stuff
    }
}

The problem is that now the user has to hit enter two times for the input to get accepted. I guess it's because getline consumes the first \n.
How can I avoid this, so that the user only hit enter once for the input to validate?
Here is an example of the result without the flush:
enter your name : foo
enter your age : 42
enter your name : enter your age : 69
--crashing because second name is empty--

Here is an example of the result with the flush :
enter your name : foo

enter your age : 42
enter your name : bar

enter your age : 69

Finally the flush without \n delimiter hangs on the first try waiting for MAX_INT characters entered.
I use gcc version 7.5.0 (Ubuntu 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04).

A: The solution was to also use getline() to read the age and parse it to an int. I don't know why mixing getline() and operator>> produces this behavior, though.

A: The problem are these two lines:
if (getline(std::cin, name)) {
    std::cin.ignore(std::numeric_limits<std::streamsize>::max(), '\n');

The getline call includes the newline, so your ignore call will read the next line of input.
You need the ignore call after reading the age (with >>), but not after getline.

The Oregon Ducks have won 17 National Championship titles till date. the sports for which the Ducks have achieved these titles, include Men's Basketball (one title in 1939), Men's Track & Field (five titles in 1962, 1964, 1965, 1970, and 1984), Men's Cross Country (six titles in 1971, 1973, 1974, 1977, 2007, and 2008), Men's Indoor Track & Field (in 2009), Women's Cross Country (two championships in 1983, and 1987), Women's Track & Field (in 1985), and the most recent one being the Women's Indoor Track & Field, in 2010.
The University of Oregon has a football stadium on its north, called the Autzen Stadium, which is the home of its football team. The stadium opened in 1967, and since then, it has experienced a few expansions. It can seat up to 54,000 spectators, but whenever there is a Ducks match, the number of spectators increases. Thus, the official attendance of the Autzen Stadium is approximately 59,000 and has exceeded capacity for every game ever since the year of 2002. The university also consists of a basketball arena, called the McArthur Court. It is named for Clifton N. (Pat) McArthur, who was a student-athlete and the first student body president of the university. However, the arena is shortened to just as 'The Pit' or 'Mac Court'. The McArthur Court is famous for being one of the toughest arenas in the state for rival teams to play in. In addition to these, a new college baseball stadium, called the PK Park, has also been built to provide home to the Oregon Ducks. The Oregon Ducks football team has proved to be among the best teams for the past some years. This season, the Ducks are once again ready to take down all their rivals and prove their domination in college football. Will they be able to do it? And how well can they perform in other sports?

OUR STORY OUR
WHY WE CARE
Plugged In exists to shine a light on the world of popular entertainment while giving you and your family the essential tools you need to understand, navigate and impact the culture in which we live. Through reviews, articles and discussions, we want to spark intellectual thought, spiritual growth and a desire to follow the command of Colossians 2:8: "See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ."

Family uses Plugged In as a 'significant compass'
"I am at a loss for words to adequately express how much it means to my husband and me to know that there is an organization like Focus that is rooting for us. Just today I was reading Psalm 37 and thinking about how your ministry provides ways to 'dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.' We have two teenagers and an 8-year-old in our household...Plugged In has become a significant compass for our family. All three of our kids are dedicated to their walk with Christ but they still encounter challenges. Thanks for all of your research and persistence in helping us navigate through stormy waters."
Plugged In helps college student stand-up for his belief
"Thanks for the great job you do in posting movie and television reviews online. I'm a college freshman and I recently had a confrontational disagreement with my English professor regarding an R-rated film. It is her favorite movie and she wanted to show it in class. I went to your Web site to research the film's content. Although I had not seen the movie myself, I was able to make an educated argument against it based on the concerns you outlined. The prof said that she was impressed by my stand and decided to poll the whole class and give us a choice. We overwhelmingly voted to watch a G-rated movie instead! I've learned that I can trust your site and I will be using it a lot in the future."
Plugged In brings 'Sanity and Order' to Non-believer
"Even though I don't consider myself a Christian, I find your Plugged In Web site useful and thought-provoking. No one reviews movies like you do. Instead of being judgmental, you put entertainment 'on trial.' After presenting the evidence, you allow the jury of your readers to decide for themselves what they should do. In my opinion, you bring sanity and order to the wild world of modern day entertainment. Keep up the good work!"
Mom thinks Plugged In is the 'BEST Christian media review site'
"Our family doesn't go to the movies until we go online and check out your assessment of a given film. I think this is the BEST Christian media review website that I've found, and I recommend it to my family and friends. Keep up the good work!"
SUPPORT THE WORK OF PLUGGED IN
Our hope is that whether you're a parent, youth leader or teen, the information and tools at Plugged In will help you and your family make appropriate media decisions.

PLUGGED IN RATING
Watch This Review
We hope this review was both interesting and useful. Please share it with family and friends who would benefit from it as well.
Railroad engineer Frank Barnes isn't overjoyed to be working with a rookie conductor. This Will Colson kid is a nice enough sort, but com'on, Frank has been watching his friends lose their jobs left and right with all the company layoffs. And now the train-running veteran has got to play nursemaid to this new hire just because the dude has the same last name as some of the bigwigs in the main office.
But, hey, that's the way things roll. And Frank has been watchin' 'em roll in and out of the yard for 28 years.
Of course, today is a little different. Yeah, he's got this new pain in the proverbial neck to deal with. But there's more. Seems a mile-long train full of explosives and corrosive toxins has somehow left the yard without a crew. And it's racing pell-mell down the mainline at a good 70 mph with nothing between it and Stanton, Pa. … except Frank and the new guy.
By the way, Frank, all other attempts to slow the runaway have failed miserably. It's even sliced through the company derailer like a hot knife through butter. And if that beast gets to the hairpin turn in Stanton going full tilt, a lot of people are going to die.
Even the kid agrees, they can't let that happen.
Positive Elements
Frank and Will both have their share of relationship problems—Frank is feeling the heat after forgetting a daughter's birthday and Will was recently slapped with a restraining order by his estranged wife. But as their story unfolds, it becomes apparent that these two guys love their families dearly. Frank tells Will that it's never too late to try to patch things up. And they both reach out via cell phone and try to express their feelings several times.
Mostly, though, the big positive here is the tiny little fact that these two train-running he-men risk life and limb trying to save the lives of thousands of people they've never met.
Spiritual Content
Frank's two (adult) daughters both work at a Hooters restaurant. We see several quick shots of them and other servers dressed in the chain's signature formfitting T-shirts and short shorts. When Frank calls his daughters at home we also catch quick glimpses of scantily clad dancers in a TV music video.
A female rail line exec wears a formfitting top. And Will's wife gets out of bed dressed in a cleavage-baring tank top. Wearing only a pair of briefs, Will crashes on a friend's couch.
Unstoppable is chockablock with high-action danger as numerous leaping and high-speed attempts are made to stop the runaway train. And as the megatonic rocket speeds down the tracks, it smashes through a number of obstacles in its path.
For example, a truck accidentally broadsides a large horse trailer onto the tracks and ranchers hurriedly get their animals out—just seconds before the runaway obliterates the trailer. The same sort of thing happens to another train's boxcar. And an engineer is killed when his engine is rammed off the tracks and explodes in a ball of fire. Large cuffs are installed on the tracks to derail the hurtling train, but as the front locomotive rips through the derailer, chunks of metal shoot outward to lacerate and tear apart nearby police cars.
In a few up-close moments the rending becomes more personal. An attempt is made to lower an engineer to the cab of the runaway lead engine, but while still attached to a hovering helicopter, he's flipped back to the second locomotive, smashing its windshield. (He's rendered unconscious.) A conductor falls and has his foot smashed in the large steel connecting knuckle between trains. After extracting himself, we see his bloodied and ripped shoe.
Crude or Profane Language
One f-word and over a dozen s-words. Five to 10 uses each of "a‑‑," "h‑‑‑" and "b‑‑ch." God's and Jesus' names are misused over a dozen times. A hefty portion of those times God's name is combined with "d‑‑n." And obscene gesture is made.
Drug and Alcohol Content
Customers have beer and mixed drinks at a Hooters restaurant.
Other Negative Elements
Railroad company executives are portrayed as being more concerned about the bottom line than they are the public's safety.
Inspired by a true story, Unstoppable never swerves from its primary destination: thrilling audiences with the tale of an unmanned train leaving the yard under a full head of steam and rushing to deliver a ticking time bomb to a paralyzed populace. Through 100 minutes of screen time, the tension continues to ratchet ever higher as our two likeable, average-guy heroes struggle to find a way to stop a million tons of hurtling steel and explosives. It's a straightforward white-knuckler that plays to every single one of Denzel Washington's old-school movie star strengths.
"This movie has pace, momentum and fear … more than any movie I've ever done," director Tony Scott said in a traileraddict.com interview. "It's what I call an edge of the seat movie"
He's not kidding. If it weren't for the niggling little detail that just about every pulse-pounding scene is marred by profanity, this would be one of the greater action pics of the decade.
I suppose all that four-letter dialogue and the scenes at Hooters were added in hopes of communicating a sense of workman realism and/or strained anxiety. But in fact the crassness only serves to distract, like a loose and constantly squeaking wheel. And it derails any fun a family audience might have had.

Director of "Will & Grace" Sells Equestrian Estate
Published at 1:26 pm on March 21, 2011
Jim Burrows, the director of "Will & Grace", recently sold his 194-acre Dutchess County farm for $15 million in what is perceived to be a record breaking deal for the town of Millbrook, NY. The famed sitcom director appropriately dubbed his cherished horse estate "Willow Grace Farm" after the hit TV series and even quipped in a 2009 "Elle Decor" piece that "the show paid for most of the grass here." View the listing.
The home was designed and built by G.P. Schafer Architects over a span of four years and the firm ultimately won the 2009 Palladio Award for "outstanding work" on Willow Grace Farm.
According to the listing, many of the gorgeous wooden floor boards are derived from Columbia County. Their color reflects their pre-Revolutionary war origins.

The lovely estate is located in the heart of fox-hunting country and features a total of five bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms.

Kim Kardashian Reveals Her Kids, North & Saint West, Finally 'Get Along'
Abeni Tinubu
As a mom to four kids, Kim Kardashian West knows all about sibling rivalry. This is especially true since her children are all under the age of seven and fairly close in age. Together with her husband, Kanye West, the KKW Fragrance owner is raising four children who all have wildly different personalities. Their oldest child, North West, is six and taking after her mother with her love of fashion and makeup. Similar to her father, she also boasts a larger than life personality, which is hilariously diva-like.

The West kids haven't always gotten along
Saint West, who recently made four, is reportedly a sweetheart who has a big smile for any and everyone he meets. Kardashian West has been candid about the fact that her eldest son is one of her very favorite people and one of the kindest people she knows. According to the reality star, her youngest daughter, Chicago West, is a bossy foodie who loves taking pictures and is full of sass. The baby of the family, Psalm West, is taking after his older brother in demeanor and apparently has brought synergy to the West household. Kardashian West is very appreciative of the peace her baby boy has brought because her kids haven't always gotten along well.
I want to make an effort to get to know Sam so I set-up a meet and greet with him. After I had to cancel about 3 times, my schedule finally opened up and we made it happen. I asked Saint to join us because this is more his friend and I wanted Sam to feel comfortable. From our conversation, I found out that Sam's room is actually in the same wing of the house as mine (who knew?), his favorite color is grey and he already has a favorite Malika. I started to talk about my businesses and Saint interjected and told him that we are business partners and we split all profits 50/50. If he's my business partner, then auntie Kourtney researches and writes all her own content for @POISH. Guess what? She doesn't and he's not. I told Sam I don't know what Saint has been telling you, but he is not now, nor will he ever be a partner in my empire. Sam needs better friends.
A post shared by North West (@norisblackbook) on Aug 20, 2019 at 3:40pm PDT
Despite Saint West's sweet demeanor, North West has never been a huge fan of her little brother. Despite only being two years apart, she kept her distance from him until very recently. When she was guest-hosting Live With Kelly and Ryan back in 2017, Kardashian West revealed that she originally thought that North West was going through a phase and getting used to not being an only child. But, even after Chicago West was born, the 39-year-old revealed that North West was not a fan of Saint. "She does not like her brother. It's so hard for me," Kardashian West shared about her kids.
North West often ignored her siblings
In fact, prior to Psalm being born, North West refused to acknowledge the fact that she had siblings."North acts like an only child at all times. I think she's a little confused. She's beyond jealousy now. She's just like, 'It's my world.' She said to me the other day, 'Mom … we just need to have another baby brother so that Saint can just leave me alone … so the girls can be on this side of the house and the boys can be on that side of the house. She has a sign on her door that says, 'No boys allowed'. She won't even let Saint step foot in her room. If he does or if he's with me and I have to take care of both of them … it's like full war," Kardashian West revealed to People in 2019.
They get along now
A post shared by Kim Kardashian West (@kimkardashian) on Jan 28, 2020 at 12:40pm PST
Kim Kardashian West revealed her kids get along on Instagram
But, the animosity between her kids seems to have stopped recently. On January 28, 2020, Kardashian West took to her Instagram page to share adorable photos of North and Saint West laughing together in the backseat of a car. "They get along now," Kardashian West informed her 158 million Instagram followers about her kids' newfound friendship. We're sure that Kardashian West is thrilled that her children are finally getting along, at least for the time being.

Le 6 septembre 2008, son public est enthousiasmé par son concert funky Lionel Richie live 2008 aux Pays-Bas.

Les répercussions de l'éruption de l'Eyjafjöll en 2010 sur le trafic aérien empêchent la présence de l'interprète au Printemps de Bourges.

Kevin Cheng Called "Irresponsible" After Neglecting To Ensure Son's Mask Was Worn Properly
One-year-old Rafael was photographed with his mask beneath his nose during a shopping trip.
As Hongkong grapples with its fourth wave of COVID-19 infections, quite a number of celeb parents have amped up their prevention measures, like Hongkong actor Moses Chan, who was recently praised for his cautious ways, like keeping his mask on at all times during TVB's Anniversary Gala, and fastidiously disinfecting all surfaces he came into contact with during a meal. Moses has three kids under the age of seven with his wife, 39-year-old actress Aimee Chan.
And now, another Hongkong celeb dad has come under public scrutiny for his COVID-19 prevention measures, or rather, lack thereof.
Rafael's quite the charmer
Media outlet Apple Daily recently spotted Hongkong actor Kevin Cheng and his older son, one-year-old Rafael at a shopping mall together.
At the mall, Kevin and Rafael made their way to a sporting goods store, where they were received super warmly by the retail assistants. And while Kevin chatted with the workers, Rafael was left to wander the shop on his own, greeting the workers and grinning at them. Super cute, right?
Oh no...
Unfortunately, in the pictures snapped by the paparazzi, Rafael wasn't exactly wearing his mask properly. His mask appeared to have fallen below his nose while he was exploring the store, and Kevin didn't seem to notice it at all, even when he was carrying the kid.
Gotta be more careful from now on, Kevin!
And it gets worse. Kinda. After their visit to the shops, Kevin and Rafael stopped by a street-side stall, where Kevin bought a Chinese sponge cake as a snack for the both of them, where he reportedly did not wash nor sanitise their hands before or after eating the cake. Yikes.
Kevin's married to TVB star Grace Chan, and they have two sons together — Rafael, and five-month-old Yannick.
