Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network (CoCoRaHS)
Colorado State University offsite link · Fort Collins, Colorado
The Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network (CoCoRaHS) is a citizen science program where thousands of volunteers across the country measure and report the amount of precipitation that falls each day in their own neighborhood. In the next three years CoCoRaHS will use strategies from the "Citizen Science Toolkit" and align activities to the "Essential Principles to Climate Science" to engage thousands more participants in collecting, reporting and exploring precipitation. Evapotranspiration measurements will be added to teach and demonstrate the hydrologic cycle in action.

Hurricanes and Climate Change: Local Impacts and Global Systems
Miami Museum of Science / Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science offsite link · Miami, Florida
The Miami Science Museum, in collaboration with Ideum and the Institute for Learning Innovation, is designing and developing an interactive multi-user exhibit that allows visitors to explore the global dimensions and local impacts of climate change. The exhibit will raise public understanding about the underlying science, the human causes, and the potential impacts of climate change by combining the attraction of a 4-foot spherical display with a user-controlled interface that lets visitors control the sphere and choose from a range of global and local content they wish to explore.

What time of the year gets kids excited the most? If your answer is the time leading up to their birthday, then you're absolutely right. Birthdays spell gifts, games, surprises, parties, dance, play and a whole lot of fun and excitement for children. And, there's a rhyme to complement the same; the happy birthday song. This song for kids may not be among the classic nursery rhymes (played only on the special day for toddlers and not sung on a daily basis) but it is of considerable importance nonetheless. It helps spread joy and happiness. As when this music is played aloud, for a little baby it marks the time to blow the candles and cut the cake and hear everyone around cheering, singing and wishing them a very happy birthday! Also, its the moment that make birthdays that much more special; to collect their presents!

Hagaren Zero, A Volume 0 Of FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST's Comic Distributed To Viewers
Preceding the release of the live-action movie "Hagane No Renkinjutsu-shi(Full metal Alchemist)" a.k.a Hagaren starring Ryosuke Yamada as a Edward Elric, Dean Fujioka as a Roy Mustang, and Tsubasa Honda as a Winry Rockbell, the film-distributing agency has announced that they will distribute a volume 0 of the Full metal Alchemist's manga comic.
The trailer of live-action version of Full metal Alchemist
Hagaren is a story about alchemists. Edward Elric and Alphonse Elric are brothers who can use alchemy outstandingly though they're still children. After their father's disappearance, they lost their mother because of a serious disease. They tried to revitalize the mother with alchemy but they failed. And the alchemy of human transmutation is prohibited due to the dangerousness, because there's a rule named "Equivalent exchange". Eventually, Edward lost his leg and Alphonse lost his whole body as a compensation of the "Equivalent exchange". Edward somehow succeeded to transfer Alphonse's soul to empty armor after the failure. One day, Roy Mustang visited to the brother's place and scout them in the army. The brothers decided to join the army for finding a clue to regain their leg and body.
Hagaren is a very popular manga comics not only in Japan but all over the world. It's originated in manga comics written by Hiromu Arakawa. She also wrote popular manga comics like "Silver Spoon", "Noble Farmer" and "The Heroic Legend of Arslan". The animation version of Hagaren has been created twice, and also it has become animation films, games and novels due to the popularity.
In this coming December 2017, finally, the live-action version of Hagaren will be shown over 190 countries all over the world. It's not released as of now, but the reputations of the trailer are almost preferable ones. As a gift for viewers, the film-distributing agency decided to give vol.0 of Hagaren's manga comic for a limited amount, which is written newly by Hiromu Arakawa, isn't sold ever. It describes a story about just after Edward became a certificated alchemist after joining the army, and it's related to the story of the live-action movie. After the comic gets out of stock, the original poster calendar will be distributed as a alternative.

Minerals exploration makes an essential contribution to Northern Ireland's prosperity and quality of life. The mineral extraction industry provides employment often in rural areas and produces a wide range of products for a variety of purposes in construction, agriculture and industry.
Within Northern Ireland there are nearly 600 occurrences of economic minerals and approximately 1800 abandoned mine workings, mostly dating from the last century. The bulk of mineral commodities, which are largely natural sand, gravel and crushed rock aggregate plus rock for cement manufacture, are mostly obtained through quarrying.
Increasingly, however, there is a recognition that mineral working can have a significant impact on the environment and quality of life.
The Planning Service is the Minerals Planning Authority for the Province. In determining planning applications for minerals development, Planning Service, is required to balance the need for minerals against the need to protect the environment.
The Planning Service also deals with other matters relating to minerals, such as monitoring sand and gravel and hard rock sites; enforcing planning conditions and formulating policies specifically related to minerals development.


The irony. Mishpacha magazine is using this image to illustrate how extreme Lev Tahor is. This is how a woman has to look like to be allowed in Lev Tahor's village. But this is also how a woman has to look like to be allowed onto Mishpacha's cover!
However, let's be grateful for baby steps. In a 2015 Mishpacha article about burqas, they did not show any pictures of these women, instead showing numerous pictures of a doll draped in a burqa!
So, let's be grateful for baby steps. Yeshivish society has progressed from giving the impression that women cannot be seen under any circumstances, to giving the impression that they can only be seen if they are wearing burqas. Progress you can't deny!
I am not in the Yeshivish world, I do not subscribe to their positions of not showing women in magazines, but at the same time, I am not really offended by it. I think a legitimate halachic argument can be made for that approach, and I don't think that it should be called "progress" to move from one legitimate approach to another.
The halachic argument that I speak of is the prohibition for men to look at women in a way that gives them pleasure. The Shulchan Aruch famously rules that it is even prohibited to look at the pinky of a woman if that sight gives him pleasure.
Now, I think it's clear that this prohibiton is on the man. It's his job to make sure that he controls his behavior and thoughts. It's not the job of a woman to stop all public activity because someone might look at her inappropriately. However, I can hear the argument, that a picture of a woman (or a man, or anything really) serves the sole (or at least primary) purpose of being looked at. Now when a widely circulated publication has pictures of women that are meant to be looked at, it is likely that some of the readership will come to look at the pictures inappropriately. I mean, it's not even about controlling oneself... sometimes it's just a natural reaction to an image.
So, now at the end of the day, pros and cons need to be weighed. Pictures of women in a widely circulated magazine will almost certainly lead someone to the prohibition as coded in the Shulchan Aruch. It may very well be a problem of lifnei iveir. On the other hand, in some communities (not all) many people (especially women) will take offense to such a policy... and offending others is almost certainly a halachic problem as well. There may be other considerations as well, like what does it do to the communal self esteem for women and young girls when only pictures of the opposite gender are publicized in their beloved publications and periodicals.
I don't mean to take a side, but only to play Devil's advocate. I think both sides have legitimate halachic, psychological, and social arguments. The different approach may be a result of prioritizing these values differently or even just the makeup of their society (for example, women of different societies may react differently in terms of being offended to this policy). So, to say one practice is more "progressed" than the other side is not something I agree with. Shivim panim laTorah.
Nice analysis, but it is based on the erroneous assumption that someone or some committee is carefully analyzing the halacha in the context of modern society and consequences.
That's not how they make the sausages.
You are entirely incorrect, and both sides are not valid. The requirement for tznius is just to be dressed in a tznius fashion. Once a person is dressed in a tznius fashion, there is absolutely zero problem at all halachically in having a picture of said tznius person in a magazine. The idea that a picture of a properly tznius dressed person in a magazine could give rise to lifnei iver is laughably ridiculous and with no halachic foundation at all.
Isaac- if you look in the Shulchan Aruch, that's not necessarily true... at least from a shmiras einayim perspective. It's clear that there are parts of the body that is objectively prohibited for a man to look at, and those are the areas that need to be covered. But the Shulchan Aruch adds that even other parts of the body, whether it's the face or even the pinky, is prohibited to look at by a man if it gives him pleasure. Meaning, just because there is no requirement to cover it up, doesn't mean that it's permitted to look at.
Now in general, all that means is that each man needs to know himself. If he is attracted to say, a pinky, then it's his responsibility not to look at it... it's not the responsibility of the woman to cover up. However, I can hear the argument, then when a magazine is widely circulated with pictures that are meant to be looked it, with pictures of women who are dressed appropriately... there may still be men, and maybe even a significant amount of men, who will enjoy the pictures that are shown, and can't really avoid it if they want to enjoy the magazine.
Like I said, I don't believe there is a halachic problem with it, but I don't think the people who think there is a halachic problem are so far off. The more widely circulated a magazine is, the more likely it will be that some of their readership will get inappropriate amount of enjoyment from even an appropriate picture.
That remains a ridiculous reason to erase women from magazines. You don't run things exclusively for the 0.5% of bizarre deviants to the detriment of everyone else. Especially when you consider the negative effects of the disappearance of women from all aspects of life, pictures, the ability to give a speech or lecture, awards, etc. It's extremely disempowering and removes proper role models for girls. When the invitation arrives honoring Mr. and Mrs. Stein for their work but only shows a picture of Mr. Stein, that is a terrible message.
I think Yitz is mostly right.
However I don't think it's the prohibition of lifnei eveir as that is debatable if it applies. I think its the culture.
There were magazines int the past that had woman in it. This led to advertisements that were inappropriate for many of the people in the community esp. chassidim.
Magazines will want to appear to the largest audience possible. With a blanket ban of now women in the magazines you appeal to the widest audiences.
50 years ago Yiddishe licht published a picture featuring the Satmar rebezin together with Tshubiner rebezin, without any sheelah, hachshir dore?
This is really a ridiculous post.
"in a society in which it is forbidden to show pictures of women, it is hardly surprising that women start to wear burqas."
Is there any evidence of burqa-wearing women that come from the 'yeshivish" community? Did any of these families attend Ponvozeh? Brisk?
The burqa-wearers has as much to do with the yeshiva community as it has to do with the DL community. That is to say, absolutely nothing.
If you want to convince people of the merit of your argument, I would suggest some intellectual honesty. But it's your blog- so feel free to defame away if that's your preference.
Well would it be that surprising if we say wives of Ponovezh and Brisk may start wearing burqas, if not burqas, then keeping a very strict, fanatical, extreme types of clothing??
The logic that associates burqa women with the rightmost (Chareidi or "Yeshivish") fringe of Orthodox Jewish society is unassailable.
Just as the more left-leaning (i.e., "Modern") side of the Orthodox spectrum is often criticized for its too-progressive stance on women's issues, so too it is the decidedly regressive stance of the Orthodox far right that enables lunacy like this.
Disturbingly, with different groups/sects of Jews trying to "out-frum" each other in their adherence to the latest fad chumrah, it seems to be only a few short steps from "bulletproof stockings" to these full-body stockings.
If you can point to a single burqa family that was raised and educated in the yeshivish community I could take this argument seriously. But you can't. Because they don't exist.
Milton, when one has an agenda and an injured ego, ridiculous posts result. As many keep saying, its a shame. I guess zoo stuff just doesn't draw the crowds.....and doesn't assuage the ego.
"Ya think," what's your agenda in writing your comment?
Yes, it would surprise me. Because I actually know people who attended Ponvezh and Brisk and none of them wear burqas. Yes, none of them. I also lived in the same neighborhood as some of the burqa-wearers so I have a good idea where they come from. It's not the yeshiva world.
You assert, "If you can point to a single burqa family that was raised and educated in the yeshivish community I could take this argument seriously. But you can't. Because they don't exist."
Not that it particularly matters to the credibility of my argument, but how do you know this?
a) I've been asking this question for years from those making similar arguments and no one has ever responded with a name and b) more importantly, I spent years living in the heart of meah shearim among many burka-wearers. While I never spoke to any of the women I did speak with the men and know some of their "rabbis." I know where they come from and they are as much yeshivish as they are mizrachi.
Just curious, you (and RDNS) are making an assertion. The burden is hence upon you to prove it, not upon someone else to disprove it. As someone with much close family in both Lakewood and Bnei Brak, whose sons learned in BMG and Ponivitch (and I myself spent a few years in Kol Torah), I agree fully with Milton. Burqua wearers are largely from the ranks of Ballei Teshuvah, and not from yeshivah families.
R' Slifkin does your museum not do the same thing?
"Why don't we say anything about evolution or prehistoric animal life? In part, it's because that's simply not part of our museum's mission; our museum is about the animal world of Biblical Israel. But another reason is that it would severely damage our educational mission.
We want to teach as much as possible about the natural world to as many people as possible. And Israel is home to an extraordinarily diverse range of people, not to mention the tourists that visit. There are Jews and Christians and Moslems and Hindus and people who are not attached to any faith. All of them visit our museum. And within the Jewish people, there are secular Jews, modern Orthodox Jews (who generally accept modern science), and ultra-Orthodox Jews.
The latter group itself in turn contains many diverse communities - Lithuanians, Chabad, Gerrer, Belz, and so on. Many of them are completely insulated from the outside world. They've never watched television. They've never even been to visit the zoo, because the zoo is open on Shabbat. They're certainly not going to visit a museum that has exhibits about evolution.
Does it make sense not to create institutions that these communities will ever visit, and to continue to deprive them of knowledge about the natural world? Or does it make sense to have a variety of institutions available for the general public - some that teach the full range of modern scientific knowledge, and others with a mission that is more limited, but which will reach all communities?"
Wouldn't the same argument apply to Mishpacha?
Do you mean that I am correct in pointing out that, Mishpacha is doing the same thing you do.
Just as you avoid displaying anything that some may find objectionable since "it would severely damage our educational mission"
And if by the absence of anything linked to "evolution or prehistoric animal life" in your museum, a visitor would assume he knew your position on evolution, and make other assumptions based on that about you, they would would be utterly wrong. May it be the same case that judging a magazine by its cover might be wrong?
He's agreeing with you. But there is a big difference. The dinosaurs are not disrespected by being left out.
I am not sure what you mean, the issue R' Slifkin has with Mishpacha is not one that they disrespect women.
I agree. Baalei teshuvah carry things to ridiculous extremes because they have no grounding. Lev Tahor was founded by a baal teshuva and most or all of its adherents are bts. Rav Berland and his followers ditto.
Chareidi women refuse to relinquish their wigs despite opposition from Rav Elyashiv and other major figures. Dozens of anti-wig brochures have made little impact.
Brochures urging women to wear ankle length dresses are also totally ignored.
I don't know what sewer you live in where it's acceptable to make sweeping general statements like "baalei teshuvah have no grounding." You may find that BTs feel that they are not grounded because of the attitudes of vile bigots like you.
It does not behoove you to call women "babes", even in a facetious way. It is a demeaning and, if I may, not-tznius, term.
How do you know those are actual woman wearing those burqas? Chalila!!
To add a little to devil's advocate I once did an analysis on this and this is what I could come up with.

Q: How to print the first letter of each word in a sentence? I got this question in a quiz last week, a lot of people got it wrong, so I am pretty sure it will be on our midterm:

Write a function that takes as a parameter a list of strings and
  returns a list containing the first letter of each of the strings.
  That is, if the input parameter is ["Daniel","Nashyl","Orla",
  "Simone","Zakaria"], your function should return ['D', 'N', 'O', 'S',
  'Z']. The file you submit should include a main() function that
  demonstrates that your function works.

I know you can use this [#:#] to print any letters of a word or sentence.
>>> `x = "Java, Python, Ruby"`
>>> `x[:13]`
'Java, Python,'
>>> `x[:-1]`
'Java, Python, Rub'
>>> `x[:1]`
'J'

But I get confused when it comes to printing the first letter of a bunch of words. I also think that the ".split" function is needed here. I am using python 3.3.3

A: def first_letters(lst):
    return [s[:1] for s in lst]

def main():
    lst = ["Daniel","Nashyl","Orla", "Simone","Zakaria"]
    assert first_letters(lst) == ['D', 'N', 'O', 'S', 'Z']

if __name__=="__main__":
    main()

str.split takes a string and breaks it into a list of strings. Your input is already a list of strings, therefore you do not need .split.
"mystring"[:1] gets the first character of the string (or "" if the string is "" to begin with). Apply this to each string in the input list, and return the result.

A: You can do this with a list comprehension. You'll definitely want to read about them! Here's a minimal example that does what you're looking for:
>>> L =  ["Daniel","Nashyl","Orla", "Simone","Zakaria"]
>>> [item[0] for item in L]
['D', 'N', 'O', 'S', 'Z']

This loops through each name in your list and creates a new list from the first letter of each item in the original list. For example, "Daniel"[0] == 'D'. No .split is needed.

A: List comprehensions are cool, and you should learn to use them indeed, but let me explain a bit what's going on here, since in your question you said you're confused how to do it with a bunch of strings.
So, you have a list of strings. Lists are an iterable collection, which means we can iterate through it using, for example, a for loop:
words = ["Daniel","Nashyl","Orla", "Simone","Zakaria"]
for word in words:
   print word[:1]

I'm sure you were taught about loops like this in class. Now, instead of printing the first letter, let's construct a new list that contains those letters:
result = []
for word in words:
   result.append(word[:1])

Here I created a new list, then for every word, I appended the starting letter of that word to the new list. A list comprehension does the same thing, with a more obscure syntax, more elegance, and a bit more efficiency:
result = [word[:1] for word in words]

This is the gist of it.

New guidelines to help prevent workers falling from roofs have been launched to the roofing industry.
The best practice guidelines for working on roofs were prepared by the Department of Labour in association with the Roofing Association of New Zealand and they provide practical guidance to employers, contractors, employees, designers, principals and persons who control a place of work, and architects who are involved in work associated with roofing.
Construction is one of five sectors where specific action plans have been developed to reduce the death and injury toll. 'The roofing guidelines have been launched as part of the Preventing Falls from Height project, which aims to raise awareness about working safely at height and reducing the human and financial toll caused by falls from height,' says the Department of Labour Programme Manager – Harm Reduction, Francois Barton.
'More than half the falls from height reported to the Department are happening from under three metres – and most of these falls are from roofs and ladders. Too many roofers are falling.
'These guidelines are a practical way of helping roofers and others in the construction sector understand what safe working practice at height looks like. Preventing falls while working at height is a top priority for the department,' Mr Barton said.
The Department of Labour has recently set a target of a 25% reduction in serious injuries and deaths by 2020 and these guidelines will help regulators, employers, employees, and industry associations contribute to meeting that target.
From July the Department of Labour will be commencing targeted enforcement in the construction sector, particularly focusing on residential building sites, to prevent falls from height.
'The Department is increasing the visibility and intensity of workplace visits in the construction sector and turning up the heat around poor practice. If we see nothing is being done to prevent falls from height in the workplace, we'll take appropriate enforcement steps. Doing nothing is not an option,' Mr Barton said.
→ The Best Practice Guidelines for Working on Roofs are available from the Department of Labour and the Roofing Association of New Zealand. For more information visit www.dol.govt.nz/prevent-falls/ or www.roofingassn.org.nz/.

What Is The Story Of A Short Story
Bruno came home from a long day of school to find the maid , Maria, packing his things in four large crates. He was confused about what was happening until his mother told him that they were moving because his father got a promotion. Bruno was not happy about moving away from Berlin as he had so much he would be leaving behind. He wouldn't be able to play with his friends anymore or be able to slide down the banister in his five-story home. No more looking out the window where he could see almost all of Berlin and no more buying apples at the small fruit stand in the heart of the city. All of this seemed crazy to Bruno and no matter how much whining he did he still couldn't convince his father to stay in Berlin. Time and time again he was told that the Fury wanted father to move for his job, but Bruno didn't even know what his father's job was! Bruno, Gretel (his sister), Mother, Father and all of their maids/butlers arrived at the house called "Out-With". He was extremely unpleased with the house he would be living in. It only had three floors and it was isolated. While Mother was unpacking dishes, Bruno tried to convince her to move back to Berlin but she got angry and told him that they will be staying there for a foreseeable-future and told him to go up to his room and unpack his things. While Bruno was unpacking, he spotted a blonde teenage soldier, Lieutenant Kotler, and had an immediate disliking for him. Bruno looked out his bedroom window to

GLORY 4 Tokyo – Heavyweight Grand Slam Results and Pics; CBS Sports Network To Air Event Tonight
HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION SEMMY SCHILT WINS
GLORY 4 TOKYO – HEAVYWEIGHT GRAND SLAM
STAR-STUDDED, 16-MAN KICKBOXING TOURNAMENT
HISTORIC EVENT AIRS
ON CBS SPORTS NETWORK IN THE U.S.
TONIGHT/MONDAY, DEC. 31 AT 10 P.M. EST/7 P.M. PST
TOKYO, Japan (Dec. 31, 2012) – After four fights in one night, two of which he ended by KO, Karate black belt Semmy Schilt (43-6, 20 KOs) of the Netherlands, emerged as the winner of the highly-anticipated GLORY 4 Tokyo – Heavyweight Grand Slam. Schilt, a fan favorite of this star-studded, 16-man, one-night kickboxing tournament, claimed the $400,000 grand prize and! secured his position as the world's No. 1 heavyweight kickboxer.
In addition to Schilt, the single-elimination tournament field consisted of numerous other superstars and rising stars, including the likes of legend Peter Aerts (104-31-1, 78 KOs), Remy Bonjasky (78-15, 40 KOs), Gokhan Saki (79-16, 55 KOs), Daniel Ghita (47-8, 36 KOs) and Jamal Ben Saddik (24-1, 19 KOs). Playing out over 15 fights, the tournament saw 8 bouts end by KO or TKO, resulting in a KO ratio of just under 55 percent.
"I've won many tournaments, but this is the best ever," the towering (6-foot-11/2.12 meters)Schilt said afterwards. "It was a hard tournament with some very good fighters and some very hard fights for me and for everyone else. But, all the struggle is worth it to win a competition like this. GLORY is home to the best fighters in the worl! d and I am very proud to be the winner of (the league's) first-ever Grand Slam tournament.
"This was not just a great New Year's Eve event, it was a great martial arts event," said GLORY Chairman Pierre Andurand. "I think that the skill and the courage that we saw in the ring tonight is really what the martial arts are all about. Perhaps it's a bit of cliché seeing as we are in Tokyo, but I really do think we can say that the fighters tonight embodied the samurai spirit which all martial artists aspire to."
The tournament's 'Best of Three' rule, designed to eliminate needless injuries, mandated that any fighter who won the first two rounds of a bout would advance to the next stage without having to fight the third and final scheduled round of the bout.
Schilt's run saw him stop Brice Guidon (28-8, 4 KOs) of France in the first round of the tournament's first fight! via a pair of heavy right hands. He then outclassed hot prospect Rico Verhoeven (37-7-1, 8 KOs) of the Netherlands to take a decision win under the 'Best of Three' rule before meeting Gokhan Saki (79-16, 55 KOs) of the Netherlands in the semifinal stage of the tournament.
Saki, who had KO'd his opponents in the first round of both his Final 16 and quarterfinal stage matches, respectively, tried to do the same to Schilt but couldn't overcome Schilt's significant reach advantage.
Saki landed some good shots, but couldn't get the clean connection he needed in order to seal the deal. The judges declared Schilt the winner under the Best of Three rule and, although Saki bitterly disputed the decision, Schilt advanced to the championship round of the tournament.
In the championship matchup, Schilt met Ghita, who had finished his semifinal fight in j! ust 10 seconds by stopping the giant Ben Saddik with a left kick to the solar plexus. As a result, Ghita was well-rested and less hurt that Schilt, who had persevered through a war with Saki. But near the end of a close first round, Schilt threw a perfectly-timed head kick and connected his shin cleanly across the side of Ghita's head.
Ghita went down and struggled to beat the referee's 10-count. He made it to his feet just in time, but the referee determined that he was unsteady on his feet and that the fight should be stopped for Ghita's own safety, thereby sending Schilt to the winner's circle.
In the evening's Superfights, speed and technique reigned supreme. Robin van Roosmalen (38-14-3, 12 KOs), the runner-up in the GLORY 3 Rome 'Final 8' lightweight (154 pounds/70 kilograms) eight-man tournament on Nov. 3, was matched with the colorful Japanese character Yuichiro Nagashima (17-6, 12 KOs) and completely dominated him fr! om start to finish.
Nagashima had no answer for Van Roosmalen's forward pressure and awesome power. He showed a lot of heart in refusing to stay down after being knocked down several times and in some instances literally knocked off his feet with low kicks. Nagashima went the distance, but Van Roosmalen walked away the winner by unanimous decision.
Toshio Matsumoto (38-10-6, 30 KOs) gave Jason 'Tyson' Wilnis (19-1-2) a stiff test in their middleweight (185 pounds/84 kilograms) match. The experienced Matsumoto is known as 'The Knockout Artist' and he did his moniker proud, demonstrating slick boxing skills and fluid combinations. The younger and more powerful Wilnis took a while to get into the fight but, once he did, his superior conditioning put him in front— and by the final bell he was dominating on his way to a unanimous decision win.
Flyweights Sang Jae Kim of Korea and Mutsuki Ebata (17-1-1) of Japan stole the show with a three-round battle that was non-stop from start to finish. The Japanese fighter was by far the better man but his Korean opponent could not be stopped and refused to lie down. Kim lost a one-sided decision but impressed onlookers with his heart and got a big round of applause from the Japanese arena.
The CBS Sports Network telecast of the GLORY 4 Tokyo – Heavyweight Grand Slam event will begin at 10:00 p.m. EST/7:00 p.m. PST tonight, Monday, Dec. 31, with an immediate replay at 2a.m.EST/11p.m.PST.

Snow and ice events can be catastrophic to the property if not carefully treated and slip-and-fall accidents are the most frequent injuries and liability issues on commercial properties thus the person should not let the property become another expensive statistic. Putting off the search for a snow removal company will not help anyone, and it is better to do this in advance when the owner still has time to plan with the snow removal company how they will manage the property before the first snowflake drops on the ground. This approach will guarantee that the snow removal company knows the top priorities on the site, where all the entrances are thus the company does not have to guess when all the areas are covered in snow and to make sure that the property is safe and in the right hands come winter there are some tips worth following when selecting a good snow removal company.
The first concern is how fast the company will arrive at the site after it snows because no one wants heaps of snow on his or her business premises when visitors and employees arrive at the facilities in the morning. The snow removal company should give the person an exact time on how soon they can start working on the property after it snows and the standard response time should be between 1-3 hours.
The client has inquire for a list of services from the snow removal firm and not all commercial snow removal services are equal thus the person needs to have the company breakdown the list of services that they will do and what they will not do on the property during winter. A known fact is that there are some questions that the client can ask to determine what services the snow removal company provides such as clearing sidewalks, clear parking lots and entrances of ice and snow, spraying deicers, kinds of preventive ice and snow measures that they take, hauling and removal of all the snow from the property, whether the snow and ice removal services are an add-on option for the maintenance accounts or a stand-alone services.
It is vital to know exactly what they are getting before they sign the contract with a snow removal company and since winter events can be almost hard to predict and the person does not need any other surprises from the company that they have hired. The snow removal company will be the one outside braving the dangerous weather thus the person needs to make sure that the snow removal firm has the right insurance in case there is an accident or any other issue.What Has Changed Recently With Services?

The Scotsman review of Grasmere
Review by ANNA MILLAR
Four Stars ****
This subtle and compelling play presents the story of William Wordsworth's relationship with his sister Dorothy. Written by award-winning US playwright Kristina Leach and told from a feminine perspective, the piece not only captures the literary outpourings of the time, but also the social constraints.
Each scene begins with Dorothy giving an update on the weather, from clear skies to harsh storms closing in, a lucid metaphor for the restraints of 19th-century culture. At once trapped and freed by their seclusion in the Lakes, the siblings live happily, until the unexpected arrival of old friends.
As William and Dorothy, actors Matthew Waterson and Rachel McKinney are flawless. For William, as well as being sister and mother to him, Dorothy is his muse, a role that both defines and suffocates her. A writer of some talent herself, Dorothy is confined by her role as a woman in a society.
Those familiar with Wordsworth's work will know he took much of his inspiration from the nature around him. So too did Dorothy, who enjoyed far lesser success as a diarist and travel writer later in her life - the script is generous in its exploration of this. The inclusion of Wordsworth's good friend and contemporary, Samuel Taylor Coleridge (Brent T Barnes) is inspired, lending a lightness of touch and providing a catalyst for Dorothy's deeper meditations.
Indeed, as an ensemble, New York's RoaN Productions does exceptionally well with a script that refreshingly does little to skirt the darker elements of the piece, alluding to but never fully embracing the true nature of Dorothy's love for her brother.

The British Theatre Guide review of Grasmere
Review by LOUISE HILL
If their Edinburgh debut is anything to go by, there are great things to come from Kristina Leach and RoaN Productions. A piece about the lives of Dorothy and William Wordsworth may not seem the obvious choice for a young American company casting around for their European premiere (and I confess I was skeptical), but this is a mature, assured production of a beautifully written play on love and loss, a moving, truthful piece which is biography and so much more.
Matthew Waterson, bearing an almost uncanny resemblance to the young Wordsworth, plays the poet with humour and just the right balance of honesty and hubris. Rachel McKinney's Dorothy is every inch the repressed, self-denying, intensely intelligent sister. Brent T Barnes' Samuel Taylor Coleridge is simultaneously the light-hearted confidant of both and the tortured poet who wears his genius lightly. Maria Pallas' US accent is by far the most marked, but (and I would never have thought I would say this about so very English a role) she is so utterly the charming, guileless Mary, the perfect contrast with McKinney's Dorothy, that this is soon forgotten.
Leach's writing has the effect of effortlessness, yet manages deftly to combine naturalistic dialogue with more stylised sections in which her characters' inner lives are revealed. The most moving of these shows William and Dorothy playing a game in which they imagine themselves lying in their coffins, Dorothy asking him to promise not to leave her behind when he dies. Even without the knowledge that William pre-deceased her by nine years, this brings a lump to the throat. The cast manage the changes in emotional pitch between this and comic passages such as the saga of Coleridge's albatross conundrum with admirable ease.
If anything, and this is counsel of perfection, I would have liked to see yet more of the darkness of Coleridge's suffering to bring out the parallels between his and Dorothy's predicaments, but the lightness of Leach's touch and the simultaneous depth of her revelation of her characters' suffering is remarkable. The direction works, for the most part, seamlessly with the writing (although I am not sure that even the Wordsworths drank quite so much tea!).
This production isn't perfect, but it is by far the most compelling, moving 75 minutes of straight theatre I have seen at the Fringe so far this year.

The Stage review of Grasmere
Review by WILLIAM McEVOY
The relationship between William Wordsworth and his sister Dorothy was sometimes uncomfortably close. Kristina Leach's moving play set in 1802 also features their laudanum-quaffing friend and fellow poet Coleridge, as well as a young woman who will capture Wordsworth's heart and break his sister's.
This fine production by a young and poised cast conveys a real sense of the writing and emotional lives of these characters. The actors succinctly suggest a strong sense of the period and the tortured deliberations that lead to great poetry.
Coleridge, played by Brent T Barnes, is something of a maverick, alive with humour, in love with Dorothy's spirit and her brother's genius. He's struggling to complete The Rime of the Ancient Mariner and fighting both his demons and excruciating physical pain. His relationship with Wordsworth (Matthew Waterson) is given a multi-layered dimension.
Dorothy, skillfully performed by Rachel McKinney, strikes you as another thwarted female genius confined by the restrictions on her sex. She's also a proto-feminist, resenting her lack of liberty, wanting to explore the world but tied to her cottage and her complex desire for her brother.
Beautifully paced, with frequent glimpses of humour and some stylish directorial choices, this is a strong ensemble performance of a sensitive piece of writing.

Curtain Up review of
Review by KATHRYN OSENLUND
The too too charming 50s host and hostess dish about movie stars and push products during their "amusing interjections" in the Cinema Cavalcade show. The feature now playing is Tough Guys Don't Shoot Blanks from 1936. B&W frames freeze on the screen and the cast shines as it acts out the movie on stage. With its good old retro crime movie music and vintage screen gangster and cop lingo about mugs, prison screws and dames, Tough Guys is a criminally delightful send-up. At Barrow Street Theatre. 1 hour.

Bangalore earthquake, active Covid-19 Cases, Bengaluru, Karnataka Omicron News Highlights, 22 December: Meanwhile, pro-Kannada organisations have called for a state-wide bandh in Karnataka on Dec 31 against the recent vandalisation of the statue of freedom fighter Sangolli Rayanna in Belagavi.
By: Express Web Desk
Bengaluru | Updated: December 23, 2021 09:05 IST
Bengaluru News Highlights: A day after the Union Health Ministry asked the states to reactivate Covid war rooms and enhance restrictions and surveillance in the backdrop of rising cases of Omicron, the Karnataka government Wednesday directed the health officials, deputy commissioners and district surveillance officials to steadfastly track, trace and quarantine primary and secondary contacts of persons infected by Covid-19. Currently, around 300 Coivd cases are being reported daily in Karnataka and the Test Positivity Rate (TPR) is between 0.25 per cent and 0.3 per cent. As on date, 19 cases of Omicron have been detected in Karnataka.
In a major development, pro-Kannada organisations have called for a state-wide bandh in Karnataka on December 31 against the recent vandalisation of the statue of renowned Kannada warrior and freedom fighter Sangolli Rayanna in Belagavi. The statue was allegedly defaced by activists of the Maharashtra Ekikaran Samiti (MES). A series of retaliatory skirmishes have taken place in recent days between Kannada and Marathi activists in parts of Karnataka as well as Maharashtra.
Meanwhile, a coalition of 40 organisations took out a protest march in Bengaluru from Mysore Bank Circle to Freedom Park on Wednesday, against the anti-conversion Bill, which is slated to be debated upon in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly on Thursday. The protest was attended by Bengaluru Archbishop Peter Machado. "Now that the contents of the bill are read by all, they say it is not affecting only the Christians, but also the larger society. It is the question of privacy, the question of marriage, the question of women, Dalits, Muslims," Peter Machado said.

CM Bommai emphasises upon practical based education system
Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Wednesday emphasised upon practical based education system and said the NEP would bridge the gap.
"A practical based education system is needed to meet challenges of rapid change in the present era.

According to him, the New Education Policy(NEP) is being implemented to bridge this gap. "Present generation of students need the power of knowledge to face the challenges with confidence and courage and the NEP would empower them with necessary knowledge," Bommai explained. (PTI)
Karnataka CM Bommai defends his decision to hold Bengaluru Development portfolio
Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai defended his decision to hold multiple portfolios, including the Bengaluru Development Ministry, and said he accorded top priority to the crucial department.
During the Assembly session in Belagavi on Tuesday, former Bengaluru development minister K J George asked Bommai to appoint an exclusive minister who can focus on the development of the city, instead of keeping the portfolio with him. George raised the matter in the context of alleged delays and lack of quality in works carried out under the Smart City project. Read More
Media barred from entering Karnataka Assembly ahead of debate on anti-conversion Bill
A day after the Karnataka Protection of Right to Freedom of Religion Bill, 2021, commonly known as the anti-conversion Bill, was tabled in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly, media persons were briefly stopped from entering Suvarna Soudha Wednesday before the scheduled debate on the Bill.
In the morning, when media personnel reached the Assembly, the Marshals, who did not cite an exact reason, said directions had come from the Speaker's office to stop media persons from entering the House. However, Speaker Vishweshwar Hegde Kageri said that he was not aware of it.
Former Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy condemned the media restrictions by the BJP-ruled Karnataka government and said it is an attempt to break a leg of the Constitution. In a tweet, Kumaraswamy said, "they(BJP) who are saying that they will change the Constitution have now broken a pillar of our Constitution by not allowing the fourth pillar of our democracy which is the media."

Decision on extension of legislature session after discussion: CM Bommai
Decision on extending the duration of legislature session, including the joint session and budget session, in the coming days would be taken after due discussion, Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said, adding that it would provide more time for meaningful debates in the house.
Presenting his opinion on the view that the session should include more meaningful discussions in the Legislative Assembly, Bommai said, "There would be no problem if members adhere to the rules and procedures of the conduct in the house. Both the houses of legislature have a rich tradition. There are rules and procedures to raise issues. We should conduct ourselves accordingly."
Referring to making the best use of time allotted for debates, Bommai said, "Opposition parties should naturally get more time and importance. A system of allotting time to a political party according to its strength in the house is in practice in the Lok Sabha. The problem could be resolved if the same system is adopted here." (ENS)
Karnataka govt needs to show more respect to Shivaji Maharaj: Maha minister
Maharashtra minister Eknath Shinde on Wednesday said the Karnataka government needs to show more respect towards Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and his legacy, and an act to defame an icon like him cannot be pardoned.
Seven people were recently arrested in neighbouring Karnataka for allegedly desecrating the Maratha warrior king's statue at Bengaluru. The alleged incident in Bengaluru had raised tempers in the border district of Belgaum, which Maharashtra claims should belong to it.
Shinde on Wednesday made a statement in the Maharashtra Legislative Council over the incident. "The whole incident is to be condemned. I strongly express my condemnation as we all respect Shivaji Maharaj. His contribution towards us is inspirational, and defaming an icon like him is an act that cannot be pardoned," the state urban development minister said. "Prime Minister Narendra Modi has used Shivaji Maharaj's name several times. He even used his name at the time of a function in Kashi recently. But, the Karnataka government needs to show more respect towards Shivaji Maharaj and his legacy," the Shiv Sena leader said. (PTI)

A coalition of 40 organisations took out a protest march in Bengaluru from Mysore Bank Circle to Freedom Park on Wednesday, against the anti-conversion Bill, which is slated to be debated upon in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly on Thursday. The protest was attended by Bengaluru Archbishop Peter Machado.
"Now that the contents of the bill are read by all, they say it is not affecting only the Christians, but also the larger society. It is the question of privacy, the question of marriage, the question of women, Dalits, Muslims," Peter Machado said.
"Karnataka is a progressive state in the country and has to give a message to others that Karnataka is open to privacy, dignity and human rights," he added.

Karnataka Cong to hold 10-day padayatra for implementation of Mekedatu project
The Karnataka unit of the Congress will launch a 10-day padayatra from Mekedatu to Bengaluru – a distance of around 179 km – on January 9 seeking the implementation of the Mekedatu drinking water project. Announcing the padayatra, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president D K Shivakumar on Tuesday said the march will cover 15 Assembly constituencies before reaching Bengaluru.
Bengaluru Metro: TBM Urja to start tunnelling stretch between Cantonment and Pottery Town
Bengaluru Metro's tunnel boring machine (TBM) Urja will start tunnelling the stretch between Cantonment and Pottery Town stations, a distance of 907 metre, from Wednesday, said Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Ltd (BMRCL) officials Tuesday. Urja achieved a breakthrough after tunnelling between Cantonment and Shivajinagar in September this year. "It was transported and reassembled for its next journey," officials added.
Karnataka: Police invite applications from transgenders; community members happy about decision
In a landmark move, the police department invited applications from the members of the transgender community for the post of special reserve sub-inspector in Karnataka State Reserve Police (KSRP) and Indian Reserve Battalion (IRB). Notably, the Karnataka High Court earlier this year asked the government to provide 1 per cent reservation to transgenders in state-owned enterprises.
Following the court order, the Karnataka government had issued a notification extending 1 per cent reservation to transgenders in any service or post in all categories of employment to be filled through the direct recruitment process.
Bengaluru: 3 booked for forcing Dalit employee to enter manhole at private hospital
Three staffers of a private hospital in Bengaluru were booked for allegedly forcing a 53-year-old Dalit employee to clean a clogged manhole at the hospital, police said Tuesday. According to the complaint, when the employee refused to enter the manhole, the accused threatened to terminate him from his services. Afraid of losing his job, the man risked his life and entered the manhole.
A week later on December 9, he approached an NGO, Samata Sainik Dal, and on December 15, a complaint was lodged at the Halasuru police station.
Shoot those who vandalised Rayanna statue: Karnataka minister in Assembly
Amid mounting tensions between Kannada and Maharashtra activists in Karnataka, Minister for Rural Development and Panchayat Raj, K S Eshwarappa, on Monday said those who defaced the statue of freedom fighter Sangolli Rayanna and set the Karnataka flag ablaze must be shot dead. He was speaking at the ongoing winter session of the state Assembly.
"The act of vandalising the statue of freedom fighter Sangolli Rayanna and burning the Kannada flag is highly condemnable and the miscreants should be tracked and shot dead," he said. The statement, however, did not elicit any reaction from other members of the House.
Like UP law, Karnataka anti-conversion Bill addresses right wing concerns on 'love jihad'
The Karnataka Right to Freedom of Religion Bill 2021, introduced in the state Legislative Assembly on Tuesday, aims to fulfil two demands of the core support base of the right-wing BJP government in the state – prevention of forced religious conversions and the so-called 'love jihad'.
Ban on conversions for marriage
While the stated objective of the proposed law is to prevent forced religious conversions, the Bill also contains clauses that are intended to curb conversions for marriages – termed 'love jihad' by the BJP's right-wing support base. This is along the lines of clauses in the Uttar Pradesh Prohibition of Unlawful Conversion of Religion Ordinance, 2020, commonly referred to as the 'love jihad' law.
Power cuts in several parts of Bengaluru for maintenance work today

Full-blown third wave or mild effect? An expert weighs in amid Omicron scare
With 19 confirmed cases of Omicron in Karnataka till now, an expert, a member of the state genomic surveillance committee, is looking at two possibilities — either a full-blown third wave or a mild effect of the new variant due to a high percentage of vaccination coverage. However, he warned that if the former happens, the state should be prepared for lockdowns and other restrictions.
Speaking to The Indian Express, Dr Vishal Rao, who is also the Regional Director – Head & Neck Surgical Oncology and Robotic Surgery, HCG Cancer Hospital, said while there is a global spike in the number of Covid-19 cases, primarily due to the Omicron variant, currently, it is under control in India.
Karnataka govt tables anti-conversion bill, Oppn alleges there was no prior intimation
The state government Tuesday tabled the controversial Karnataka Protection of Right to Freedom of Religion Bill 2021, commonly known as the anti-conversion bill, at its ongoing winter session in Belagavi. However, the Opposition attacked the government for keeping them in the dark regarding its introduction. Home Minister Araga Jnanendra tabled the Bill on Tuesday afternoon and Congress leaders took objection over the manner in which it was introduced. The Cabinet had cleared the Bill on Monday, but no official information was shared about introducing it in the House.

Stage Door presents the third and concluding volume of their "Show Time" Series EP collection. Issued across 3 albums, the collection compiles all 16 EPs that formed the "Show Time" Series as recorded and released by RCA Victor in 1953. The 16 part series was a recording initiative by RCA Victor to recreate highlights from a diverse selection of Broadway musicals, revues and operettas from the first half of the 20th century. The series featured a host of Broadway star performers, many of whom introduced their songs in the original stage productions. RCA Victor also enlisted Broadway's finest musical directors to conduct the orchestra and chorus on the recordings. The third Volume in the series includes selections from 'The Little Shows', 'Girl Crazy', 'Porgy and Bess', 'Kiss Me, Kate' and 'Anything Goes'. Featured performers include Carol Bruce, Sheila Bond, Edith Adams, Lisa Kirk, Cab Calloway, Helen Thigpen, Leslie Scott, George Britton, Helena Bliss, Helen Gallagher and Jack Cassidy. The EPs are now highly rare and sought after by collectors. Most of the tracks have never been released on CD making Stage Door's reissue of these classic anthology recordings a welcome addition to any cast album aficionados collection.

## Rule objects

Production rules that form a grammar when put into a list.

    rule = lrkit.Rule(lhs, prod)
    rule = lrkit.rule(lhs, *prod)
    acc  = lrkit.Accept(prod)

Has following operations defined:

    len(rule)
    rule[n]
    rule.lhs

## Errors

The syntax error exception.

    sn = SnError(message, start, stop)
    sn.message
    sn.start
    sn.stop

The tokenizing error exception, subclass of `SnError`

    sn = TokenError(message, start, stop)

The parsing error exception, subclass of `SnError`

    sn = ParseError(message, start, stop)

## Canonical parser table generator

Produces the canonical LR(1) parser tables for the parser in the lrkit.

    results = lrkit.canonical.simulate(rules, accept)

    for terminal in results.terminals:
        pass

    for symbol, info in results.nonterminals.items():
        for terminal in info.first:
            pass
        if info.empty:
            pass
        for rule in info.rules:
            pass

    for row in results.table:
        for symbol, obj in row:
            if isinstance(obj, lrkit.Rule):
                if obj.lhs == None:
                    pass # accept
                else:
                    pass # reduce
            elif isinstance(obj, set):
                pass # an item in results.conflicts
            else:
                pass # shift

    for kernelset in results.kernelset:
        for item in kernelset:
            item.rule
            item.index
            item.ahead

    for index, symbol, objects in results.conflicts:
        results.kernelset[index]
        results.table[index]
        for obj in objects:
            if isinstance(obj, lrkit.Rule):
                if obj.lhs == None:
                    pass # accept
                else:
                    pass # reduce
            else:
                results.kernelset[obj]
                results.table[obj]

Rules is a list of rules.
Accept is a symbol in that rulesheet.

Most of the results can be discarded after you've
studied the conflicts list. If you're explorative, you might
use this to implement GLR parser, or parse with ambiguous
grammars.

## Parser

    def visitor(rule, pos, value, *args):
        pass
    parser = lrkit.Parser(results, visitor, *args)
    if parser.idle:
        pass
    try:
        index = 0
        for token in tokens:
            parser.step(token.start, token.stop, token.group, token.value)
            index = token.stop
        result = parser.step(index, index, None, None)
    except lrkit.SnError, sn:
        print sn
        parser.reset()

The parser starts in idle state. The `parser.reset()` can be used to
recover the parser back into the idle state. This is proposed after
a syntax error if the parsing won't continue.

## Tokenizer

    tokens = lrkit.tokenize(fd, specials, index=0)
    for token in tokens:
        token.start
        token.stop
        token.group
        token.value

The specials is a dictionary of symbols accepted as special symbols.
For example: {'+':"add", '==':"eq"} The specials rewrite themselves
as unique token groups.

Token groups that are recognised:

    indent
    dedent
    newline
    symbol      # starts with letters or _, can contain numbers.
    real        # starts with a number and contains a dot.
    integer     # starts with a number, if second character is x, the first number is interpreted as base sign. 0xF00 2x101 8x777
    string      # starts with " or ', ends with started symbol, may contain escaped characters \" or \'. Escape symbols not interpreted by tokenizer.
    attribute   # starts with a dot, continues with symbol.

    TokenError("inconsistent indentation")
    TokenError("unterminated string")
    TokenError("unexpected character")

## Grammar Language

This is a separate part of the remaining. It is a grammar language loader.

    import lrkit.grammar

    results, attach = lrkit.grammar.load(path, accept, cache=True)
    assert len(results.conflicts) == 0
    parser = attach(class_or_module, *args)

    # class_or_module.command(pos, value, *args)

The grammar has a separate cache saver and loader which is able to
store your grammars. Unfortunately the format cannot cache the conflicts
or item sets, so it's use is excluded for the lrkit itself for now.

The grammar binds the rules to commands, and has a mini-syntax for removing
and ordering the match to fit the command.
Here's the grammar understood by the grammar loader, written in it's own language:

    grammar_new 0     Grammar -> Binding
    grammar_cat [0 2] Grammar -> Grammar newline binding
    binding           Binding -> symbol Pick Rule
    rule              Rule    -> symbol arrow Symbols

    list_begin   Symbols ->
    list_append  Symbols -> Symbols symbol

    list_begin   Integers ->
    list_append  Integers -> Integers integer

    # Passes the whole match as list
    pick_all     Pick ->
    # Passes only single part
    pick_one  0  Pick -> integer
    # Passes parts from the match in given order as a list
    pick_many 1  Pick -> lbracket Integers rbracket

## Diagnosis

Prints out a diagnosis of the conflicts.

    if len(results.conflicts) > 0:
        lrkit.diagnose(results)

## Snippets

Allows to print out the exact lines that faulted:

    print(lrkit.snippet(sn.start, sn.stop, source)

This product does contain silicone's but I personally have not had an issue with them.As long as you have a deep cleansing shampoo to remove the build up caused by silicone's,the better your condition your hair will be in.
The directions for using this can either be on wet or dry hair, and can also be used as a heat protectant against heat styling tools.I think this is down to preference if you want to use this on wet or dry hair.They pretty much give the same result, but I prefer to use it on wet hair more as I use it as a part of my LOC method.
The serum itself is easy to apply on the hair, as it soaks in straight away and doesn't leave any stickiness or greasiness behind.I apply this serum to the parts of my hair where frizz normally happens or mostly where I end up touching my hair throughout the day which tends to get all static and frizzy.
The serum does what it says and leaves the hair frizz free,soft and definitely gives that shine finish.It also seals in the moisture leaving your curls moisterised all day.Another great product by Creme Of Nature.
