Super Mario Bros. was one of the the first games I've played on the Nintendo NES. But when it was released in Europe in 1987, the game was already two years old. Super Mario Bros. was released on the Famincom in Japan on September 13, 1985.
I've many fond memories from this game, which I've played for nearly 30 years.
Level 1-1 is a classic. Mario gets his first red mushroom so I grows big. He get the Fire Flower and can through fireballs. He gets the Super Star which makes him invincible for a number of seconds. He can jump into a pipe and go underground hunting for coins.
You also find the first 1 up-mushroom in Level 1-1. But you might not find it on the first playthrough. You find it jumping up in the air after a pipe, and a block materialized out of nowhere and green mushroom pops out. Your first extra life. It's here you think that there might be other secrets in the game too.
It was very fun to discover the Warps Zone for the first time in Level 1-2. Her you can warp to World 2, 3 or 4. And then you heard from some about the Minus World. It can't be true, and for a long time you thought that it was a myth. It took me years to see that for myself.
The first levels is a breeze, but it can get frustrating when you enter the last castle running and running and running until you find the right path.
Princesse Toadstool is always in another castle!
Super Mario Bros. was a great sucesse for Nintendo. The game sold 40 million copies.
It was fun to play Super Mario Bros. as a child. And 30 years later, it still is as a crownup.

Q: Fortran90 Error: EXTERNAL attribute conflicts with DIMENSION attribute I've written a function which calculates the eigenvalues of a 2*2 matrix. It takes a 2*2 matrix as an argument and returns 2 eigenvalues via a 2-element array. I have declared the function in the program unit like this:
real, dimension(2), external :: eigenvalues

But it won't compile, it comes up with this error:
Error: EXTERNAL attribute conflicts with DIMENSION attribute

Is it just not possible to have functions that return arrays, or am I doing something wrong?
Any help/suggestions are appreciated, thanks. If it helps, I'm using fortran 90 with the gfortran compiler

A: The Intel Fortran compiler documentation tells me that EXTERNAL is incompatible with DIMENSION, which is roughly what your compiler is telling you.  I've had a quick look at the standard for Fortran 2003 but have failed to interpret it unambiguously on this point -- so I'll agree with Intel and assert that what your are trying to do is non-standard.
You certainly can write functions which return arrays.
It looks a little odd to me that you have written the function EIGENVALUES and are then trying to declare it to be EXTERNAL.  I would normally put my function definitions either in a CONTAINS section within a larger program unit or in a MODULE which the calling unit USEs.  In neither case do I need to declare anything EXTERNAL.
Where is the source of EIGENVALUES wrt the source of the calling program ?

A: Modestly extending the other two answers, I think other approaches are typically preferable to the old "external".   (The "Fortran 2003 Handbook" lists at least one case in which "external" must be used.)   As already suggested, for your own source code, place the procedures (functions & subroutines) into a contains section of a module and then use it.  This will automatically make the interface of your procedures explicit so that the compiler can check compatibility between arguments in calls and the dummy arguments of the procedure -- this can catch a lot of programmer mistakes.   If for some reason you don't have access to Fortran source code, for example, you are linking to a library or calling C, then I would write an interface statement describing the procedure.  This will inform that compiler that the declared name is a function or program and specify the interface to allow argument check.  I would only do this when the module method isn't possible because it is more work and prone to mistakes when changes are made because two items have to be changed.
Probably the reason this isn't working is, that according to the "Fortran 2003 Handbook", the use of the external attribute does not provide an explicit interface, and an explicit interface is required for a function returning an array argument.  I don't know why the interface is considered to be non-explicit in this case.

I love the smell of lavender and want my house to be filled with it! To this end I decided to make some lavender candles – it's super easy and very satisfying, looks great too and would make a lovely present.
To make them you need – wax (bees, paraffin or soya – the choice is yours), fresh or dried lavender flowers and leaves chopped, an old saucepan (I bought mine for 50p at a local charity shop), moulds (you can use bought, candle specific moulds or use jars, old glasses or tins), wick, wick supports and a few drops of essential oils.
I bought the wax, wick and wick supports online. I have used bees, paraffin and soya wax in the past and like them all. I like the soya wax as it smells slightly sweet and comes in flakes, which look like white chocolate. The paraffin wax looks a little more boring, but makes lovely candles and the bees wax smells like honey, but is more expensive than the others.
The wax needs to be gently melted in an old saucepan, heated by placing it in a larger saucepan of hot water. You can't heat the wax pan directly as it will burn.
When the wax has melted add about 10 drops of the essential oil per candle and your leaves and flowers. Attach the wick to its support and arrange it in the mould, then pour your waxy mixture in.
awesome! i'm going to do this…maybe it would work with rose? hmmm i'll try!


College of DuPage hosted its second annual Career Fair, sponsored by the Chicago Tribune Feb. 8, on the College's main campus in Glen Ellyn. The event provided information and networking opportunities for job seekers who are unemployed or underemployed, looking to change careers, or recent graduates who are not yet employed in their chosen field.
Graduates of community college programs are hard-working and driven, recruiters say.
Community college students juggle a lot of responsibilities. Most work at least part time, many have families to care for and homework doesn't do itself.
Successfully keeping all those balls in the air requires focus, determination and maturity – traits that hold a lot of weight with recruiters from businesses and four-year universities.
"If you can juggle family, working, homework, school, internships – I want you. It's just as simple as that," says Maureen Crawford Hentz, director of talent management for A.W. Chesterton Co., a global manufacturing corporation headquartered in Massachusetts.
In fact, when given the choice between two equally qualified applicants, Hentz leans toward the one with community college on his or her resume, she says, comparing that student to Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire.
"Both were great dancers, but Rogers did it backwards and in heels," she says, reciting a famous quote. "Community college students do it backwards and in heels."
That ability to multitask can't be taught, she says, and is one of the reasons A.W. Chesterton forged a partnership with Northern Essex Community College in Massachusetts.
Through the program, advanced manufacturing students at NECC take core classes such as machining, blueprint reading and geometric dimensioning. Once they have a foundation, they shadow employees at A.W. Chesterton and later intern with the company.
This gives students exposure to a field before committing to it, and gives employers an "internship-long interview," Hentz says.
While A.W. Chesterton's partnership with NECC is new, it is already proving to be fruitful, Hentz says, adding that the company is "very interested" in hiring a few of the students who participated in the program.
More established partnerships, like those at City Colleges of Chicago, have led to job opportunities for dozens of students each year, says Cheryl Hyman, chancellor of the community college network.
Rush University Medical Center, for example, hired 20 City College students last year, Hyman says. And Aon, a global insurance company, hired nine students for internships, two of whom were promoted to full-time positions.
JMC Steel Group, a national pipe and tube manufacturer, has also hired students and alumni from City Colleges of Chicago—Richard J. Daley College. Emmanuel Oshodi-Glover, a student at the school, is one of the company's recent hires.
Oshodi-Glover will complete his associate degree in May, but is already working full-time at JMC Steel. After work, he attends classes for three hours each night, and then starts his homework.
"Though it's busy, I enjoy it," he says. "My time in the classroom has drastically increased my technical manufacturing skills."
Businesses are not the only ones interested in community college graduates. These students are also in high demand at four-year colleges.
Students with associate degrees have already proven they are not just ready for college, but committed to it, says Wray Blair, associate provost for enrollment management at Frostburg State University in Maryland.
"Community college graduates are often some of our strongest students," he says. "These students succeed and retain at a very high rate and are often positive campus role models."
The high quality of instruction at many two-year colleges is also an advantage, says Daniel Thompson, dean of enrollment management at St. Catherine University in Minnesota.
"Students who begin college in community colleges tend to be very well-prepared to continue and be successful on almost any four-year college or university campus," he said via email.
The University of Southern California accepted 824 community college transfer students in 2013, C.L. Max Nikias, the university's president, noted in a recent op-ed in The Washington Post.
While USC has been recruiting community college students for decades, Nikias says the university has ramped up efforts over the last few years.
"The reality is that some students with the right combination of talent, creativity and personality will not begin their academic careers at a selective private university," he wrote. "Some of the most academically driven may hone their skills and prove themselves in a two-year program, emerging more motivated, more mature and hungrier than ever."

Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders speaks to thousands of Americans about how the US should be tuition free. Sanders believes tuition is discouraging some Americans from advancing to the next level of their education at college.
Since the late 1800s, college in the United States has required a tuition fee. These fees help to give back to the school in order to pay staffing and bills for the college. College should make students pay for their education in order to ensure they will give more effort into studying.
Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders has been pushing hard for a tuition-free college for public colleges and universities because he feels taxpayers will be able to fund the schools. This has worked well in countries such as Finland, Sweden and Estonia. They also have higher taxes than in the United States due to reasons such as tuition.
With the prices of some colleges out-of-state tuition, students veer away from attending them and settle for closer colleges where they are able to pay in-state tuition. This does not give students the fair opportunity to attend the college of their liking.
"Absolutely, I believe the cost of college is the biggest deterrent from students going. It's a hard pill to swallow when thinking about graduating with thousands of dollars in debt," said College and Career Center Counselor Amy Carr.
Some people in the United States never attend college, but instead, choose a more entrepreneurial route. In Stillwater's graduating class last year 88 percent of students enrolled in a college but that leaves 12 percent of students choosing a different career paDylanth. This makes it unfair for those people to have to pay for other's tuition when they are not going to need their tuition paid. This leaves a percentage of the population who will be unfairly taxed, which could lead to some of the population refusing to pay their taxes.
"I think it makes sense if you go to a specific college you should be required to pay the tuition fees that come with your education," junior Dylan Doyle said.
College is full of learning experiences, one of which is learning how creating a budget to save money. College loans are often the first major financial dealing that people work with. Paying them off in a timely manner proves you know how to budget your money, skills people use again and again when buying cars or houses, according to collegeraptor.com.
"I think when it comes to that time, yes tuition could teach me how to handle my money better for the future," junior Owen Prom said.
If public college and university tuition were to be free for students, the enrollment of these schools may go up. 15 percent of graduates at Stillwater high school attended a two-year college option last year but if it was free to attend a four-year community college would see less enrollment. The more students that attend the colleges or universities the more money the school is going to need for expenses which could raise taxes even more.
"I guess there are pros and cons to it. Pros being more students would attend and have less debt. Cons being where does the money come from? More taxes? Who will pay for it?" Carr said.
"A large number of graduates might oversaturate some areas of the workforce, leaving even more people with degrees working jobs that they are overqualified for," according to collegeraptor.com.
In countries with tuition-free college such as Finland, the personal income tax rate reaches over 50 percent and even over 60 percent in Sweden, whereas in the United States it is only 37 percent according to Tradingeconomics.com.
"I'd rather pay my loans as a student and get it over with than have to pay for others loans the rest of my life," senior Isaac Anderson said.
The United States is better off keeping tuition the way it is now in order to keep taxes down and better prepare students for the world they are soon to enter.

Rev Hardware Accelerator Team Protects Public Lands with Acoustic Security System
in Events, Hardware, Hardware Accelerator
Nature has inspired poets and song-writers, provided sanctuary and calm to the stressed, and challenged mankind to evolve pass its limits. Nature is a resource and a source of beauty for all who need it and can appreciate it. Ithaca High Schoolers Elliot Richards and Edward S. Buckler V are setting out to make sure it stays that way with their company, Outland Analytics.
The Rev Hardware Accelerator Team is working on a device that detects sounds, such as off-road vehicles, gun shots, chainsaws and other loud noises. By identifying these sounds, their product tracks trespassing, illegal hunting and timber theft. The device uses acoustic sensors and sound analysis to detect the noise, assign it to a source, and notify landowners of trespassing incidents. Outland Analytics also keeps a log of incidents in its cloud database, giving owners the ability to identify patterns for trespassing times and areas.
Outland Analytics prototype
Legal hunting and harvesting practices around the world has contributed to much of the decreases in forest land and animal populations, but have been curbed slightly due to law reform. Still, Endangered Species reports that "one in four mammals, one in eight birds, one third of all amphibians and 70 percent of all assessed plants" are in danger of extinction. A Virginia Tech study estimated that timber theft amounted to an annual loss of upwards of $5 million dollars annually.
Current, inexpensive land monitoring options available to public land managers are either ineffective or passive, said the team. Barricades and signs are an instant defense against property intrusion, but are passive and give no notification of intrusion; they are also easily bypassed. Trail cams offer a visual element to land monitoring, but have no notification system and are evadable. Outland said their monitoring solution is different from competitors because it's targeted towards the specific needs of land management organizations.
"We're unique in that we're trying to help underfunded and understaffed land management agencies at the state and federal levels. A lot of companies create these sensor detection systems for private companies that have a lot money and are just protecting high-value assets," said CEO Elliot Richards. "We're creating a system to really help public land managers preserve public land for the good of taxpayers that use them and fund them."
Outland Analytics' prototypes and components to its acoustic sensor device.
Outland Analytics is the second high school team to work in the Hardware Accelerator through a partnership with Ithaca High School's Development and Design course. Jack Greenberg, the team's lead programmer, said the Accelerator has given him an understanding on how to take a project from little more than an idea to a business.
"In school, sometimes [we] do things more from some sort of preformed base…but here we're starting from very little and trying to make something a lot bigger," said Jack. "It's helped me personally."
In the fall, Elliot and Edward will begin their first year of college, while Jack will be in his senior year of high school. The trio said that they've already started planning on how they'll collaborate over the year and the next steps they need to take after Rev Hardware's Demo Day. The team said that seeing their product curb illegal hunting and timber harvesting practices and guide healthier natural land interactions is their ultimate goal.
RSVP to Rev Hardware Accelerator's Demo Day on August 10 to find out more about what this and other Accelerator teams have built in the prototyping lab.

Home Advice and Information £7m investment in Windle Island junction improvement works to start in August
£7m investment in Windle Island junction improvement works to start in August
A £7m investment to improve Windle Island – one of Merseyside's busiest road junctions – will start on Monday 6 August.
Taking 40 weeks to complete, the scheme will result in improved pedestrian safety, smooth traffic flow – and make for better access in and out of St Helens.
Unavoidable permanent lane closures mean delays are likely, therefore motorists using the East Lancs (A580) and the Rainford By-Pass (A570) may wish to alter their commuting routes.
A580 westbound carriageway inclusive of Rainford Road to Tesco exit will be closed on Monday 6 August between the hours of 7:00pm and 6:00am.
A580 eastbound inclusive of A570 to Crank Road will be closed on Tuesday 7 August between the hours of 7:00pm and 6:00am.
Pedestrian access will be maintained at all times via the permanent crossing route; however a diversion of the existing pathway if needed will be installed around the construction works, suitably signed.
The scheme will cost a total of £7,247,000 – over half of which is being funded by the Local Growth Fund through the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority's Single Investment Fund. While the remainder is funded from St Helens Council's own receipts, borrowing – and highways capital programme.
The Windle Island Junction Improvement Scheme was approved by the LCR Combined Authority following a successful business case submission to address key issues in St Helens, and to support economic growth in the wider City Region.
Commenting on the scheme, St Helens Council Leader Derek Long says it will make Windle Island Junction safer for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians.
"This investment will make Windle Island Junction safer and easier for the tens of thousands of cars, cycles and pedestrians that use this junction every day.
"The changes will improve residents' journeys and ensure there is capacity for the borough to grow by ensuring better traffic flow along the East Lancs for key locations such as the Haydock Industrial Site.
"Obviously with such an investment there will be some disruption in the short term but we hope residents appreciate we are aiming to keep this to a minimum."
Steve Rotheram, Metro Mayor of the Liverpool City Region, said: "Our main purpose as a combined authority is to create the right conditions for our economy to grow and benefit everyone in the city region.
"We are investing £3.85m in these improvements because we recognise that the Windle Island junction is a key element in the city region's transport infrastructure. Increasing its capacity will address current severe congestion, safety and network capacity issues and will give a boost to the whole of the Liverpool City Region economy."
Central to the improvements will be:
A new four lane southbound approach to Windle Island Junction, providing a dedicated left turning lane to A580 eastbound towards Manchester and a dedicated right turning lane to A580 westbound towards Liverpool.
The reintroduction of two lanes southbound through the junction, with the left hand lane for St Helens Town Centre via Rainford Road (including Tesco and Starbucks access), and the right hand lane for Eccleston and Prescot via Bleak Hill Road.
A new left turn deceleration lane from A580 westbound onto A570 southbound to reduce queue lengths and improve safety.
Two dedicated right turn lanes from the A580 westbound (towards Liverpool) onto the A570 northbound (towards Rainford). This will reduce queue lengths.
A new 40 mph speed limit around the junction to improve safety.The whole scheme is expected to be completed by spring 2019.
St Helens Borough residents can now collect at-home Covid-19 testing kits

Q: Trying to create a Python program to find the roots of a quadratic I wrote this code to calculate the roots of a quadratic function when given the values for a, b, and c in the form ax^2+bx+c=0:
a = input("a")
b = input("b")
c = input("c")
print("Such that ", a, "x^2+", b, "x+", c, "=0,")
def greaterzero(a, b, c):
    x = (((b**2 - (4*a*c))**1/2) -b)/2*a
    return x

def smallerzero(a, b, c):
    x = (-1*((b**2 - (4*a*c))**1/2) -b)/2*a
    return x
if smallerzero(a, b, c) == greaterzero(a, b, c):
    print("There is only one zero for the quadratic given a, b, and c: ",
greaterzero(a, b, c))
else:
    print ("The greater zero for the quadratic is ", greaterzero(a, b, c))
    print ("The smaller zero for the quadratic is ", smallerzero(a, b, c))

When I execute the program (in interactive mode) and input 1, 2, and 1 for a, b, and c, respectively, this is the output:
a1
b2
c1
Such that  1 x^2+ 2 x+ 1 =0,
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "jdoodle.py", line 13, in <module>
    if smallerzero(a, b, c) == greaterzero(a, b, c):
  File "jdoodle.py", line 11, in smallerzero
    x = (-1*((b**2 - (4*a*c))**1/2) -b)/2
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for ** or pow(): 'str' and 'int'

What's the issue here?
I didn't formally learn how to use interactive mode yet. I'd like a simple explanation/introduction or a website/tutorial that provides one.

A: You forgot to cast the input values to a numeric type.
a = int(input('a')) or a = float(input('a'))
Or, a bit cleaner:
def input_num(prompt):
    while True:
        try:
            return int(input(prompt + ': '))
        except ValueError:
            print('Please input a number')

a = input_num('a')
# ... etcetera

A: The problem here is that input takes the typed input as string type. Check if this makes it work:
a = int(input("Type the value of a: "))
b = int(input("Type the value of b: "))
c = int(input("Type the value of c: "))

Here you are explicitly changing the type of the input from str to integer so your variables can be handled by arithmetic operations.

A: You cannot do math with strings. As A.Lorefice said putting int in front of input will change the given string to an integer.


Today is Mike's 40th birthday. Don't have too much planned for the day. He wants to eat lunch at PF Chang's and then we're sending the kids to mom's for the night. Not sure if we'll go out and see a movie or stay in but I figured it's his 40th so mom probably wouldn't mind having both kids spend the night.


Detects C. botulinum BoNT-B Light Chain in direct ELISAs and Western blots. In direct ELISAs, no cross‑reactivity with recombinant Light Chains of BoNT-A, -C1, -D, -E, -F, or -G is observed.
Botulinum Neurotoxin Type B is one of the seven serotypes of Botulinum Neurotoxins (BoNTs) produced by various strains of Clostridium botulinum (1, 2). BoNTs are synthesized as inactive single chain protein precursors and activated by proteolytic cleavage to generate disulfide-linked two-chain proteins. The 50 kDa light chain contains the catalytic domain, whereas the 100 kDa heavy chain contains an internal translocation domain and a receptor binding domain (3). BoNTs are the most potent protein toxins for humans. As zinc proteases, they cleave SNARE proteins to elicit flaccid paralysis in botulism by blocking acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction (2-4).
