Q: iOS - stack fullscreen viewController when presenting another viewController I have a UITabBarViewController with two tabs. I want to present a viewController fullscreen in one of the tabs. I have used the following code to do so.
    let navCtrl = UINavigationController(rootViewController: eventViewController)
    navCtrl.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
    self.navigationController?.present(navCtrl, animated: true)

It works. And EventViewController is fullscreen. However, when presenting another viewController in EventViewController, EventViewController is still fullscreen. But I want it to shrink in size and stack-up as it normally do( as in the image). In order to do so, I have changed modalPresentationStyle to overCurrentContext.
    let navCtrl = UINavigationController(rootViewController: eventViewController)
    navCtrl.modalPresentationStyle = .overCurrentContext
    self.navigationController?.present(navCtrl, animated: true)

It does so, but it causes another problem: If I  change tabs and dismiss EventViewController, the presenting viewController is black as described in this question (none of the answers was helpful).

Basically I want the EventController to be fullscreen but shrink in size  when presenting another controller in it. How to do so?
Update
A simple project with the same issue.

Add this code in willConnectTo of SceneDelegate.
 if let windowScene = scene as? UIWindowScene {
        let window = UIWindow(windowScene: windowScene)
        window.rootViewController = TabBarController()
        self.window = window
        window.makeKeyAndVisible()
    }

While you are on first tab, select a table cell to open the ModalTableViewController. And then change tabs and dismiss ModalTableViewController.

A: As for example project - presenting view over full screen hides TabBar. But I changed code a bit to propose working solution. Probably you would want to change it a bit, but I hope this will push you in good direction :)
It was actually needed to dismiss ModalTableViewController to avoid black screen.

One of Florida's most respected judges last week said appellate courts should carefully scrutinize trial court rulings that permit state agencies to keep their records secret.
He is right. I hope the Florida Supreme Court is listening.
Judge Chris Altenbernd is from Tampa and has served on the Lakeland-based Second District Court of Appeal for 25 years. On Oct. 1 Altenbernd split with two of the court's other judges in a case concerning a stack of Department of Citrus email messages and attachments. Those two judges let stand a trial court's ruling that the documents deserved secrecy, based upon a statute that protects certain legal documents prepared in anticipation of litigation. The two judges were satisfied that "competent, substantial evidence" supported the lower court's decision.
That's not a high enough standard, Judge Altenbernd said.
"I believe it is incumbent on this court to review all of these records to make our own separate determination as to whether the documents in their entirety fall within the anticipation-of-imminent-litigation exemption," he wrote.
The split between Altenbernd and his colleagues arose because of seemingly inconsistent Florida Supreme Court rulings.
In a 1997 case, the state Supreme Court refused to "second guess" a trial judge's ruling on a Public Records Act exemption because "competent substantial evidence" supported the trial court's findings. But in a pair of 2003 cases (one involved The Tampa Tribune), the state's high court said appellate judges should weigh whether a document is a public record "de novo" — that is, as if the issue is being decided for the first time, and without deferring to a trial judge's ruling.
In the Department of Citrus case, the trial judge had reviewed the email messages and attachments, but his opinion didn't make separate findings regarding each document. Instead, the trial judge ruled broadly, relying upon the agency lawyer's testimony that the documents were prepared in anticipation of litigation and contained the lawyer's mental impressions, legal theories, legal conclusions, and legal strategies.
AgroSource, the company seeking the records, was at a disadvantage, because it had not seen the records. The trial judge looked at them privately. The appellate court did, too, and AgroSource hoped the appeals judges would find that not every page needed to be kept secret.
The Florida Constitution gives appellate courts a good reason to apply such careful scrutiny to exemption claims. Every person in our state has a constitutional right to inspect or copy any public record. And although the Legislature is allowed to make exceptions, laws that provide for secrecy must state why concealment is necessary and must be no broader than necessary.
Appellate judges are in a unique position to make sure that constitutional command is followed. Instead of deferring to trial judges who allow secrecy, appellate courts should look closely at exemption claims and make certain that they are not being applied more broadly than necessary.
By scrutinizing documents that agencies want to conceal, our appellate courts can help guarantee that the constitutional right of access to public records is respected.


(1) (Let's Play) See playthrough.
(2) (Long Play) A vinyl recording of music in analog format that rotates at 33 1/3 RPM (for details of the analog method, see vinyl record). Mono LPs were introduced in the late 1940s, and stereo LPs in 1958. Two-channel stereo was accomplished by creating a V groove with left and right channels at 90 degree angles. The "long" play refers to the slower 33.3 RPM compared to 78 RPM records. The slower rotation increased the recording time per side from five minutes on a 78 to a half hour for the LP. Made of shellac resin, 78 records were brittle and easily breakable, but they were the primary music disc from the start of the 20th century until the late 1950s. The vinyl construction of the LP made it much more durable. Vinyl was also used for 45 RPM records, which were introduced in the late 1940s.
Although eclipsed by CDs in the 1980s, vinyl LPs have been making a comeback in the 21st century, and many individuals cling to their vinyl record collections. A large number of LP phonograph turntables, both consumer grade and high-end audiophile quality, are being manufactured. After years of listening to digital music, which many people feel is much harsher than analog, aficionados continue to enjoy vinyl recordings. See vinyl record, stylus, turntable and Burwen Bobcat.
The analog 33 RPM long play (LP) vinyl record holds an album of songs just like the digital CD. The analog 45 RPM platter contains one song per side.

The Wellness Benefits of Cryotherapy
[Images: Getty Images]
A rundown on the wellness trend that harnesses bone-chilling cold to improve clients' skin, bodies and overall health.
There's cold, and then there's really cold.
Subjecting the body to temperatures that plunge as low as -250 degrees Fahrenheit may not seem like something you want to suggest to clients—especially when they typically come to the spa for heated hydrotherapy and cozy relaxation—but the freezing temps of cryotherapy can provide a wealth of wellness benefits.
Cryotherapy originated thousands of years ago; records show that ancient Egyptians used the practice to treat injuries and inflammation. Cryosurgery (also, somewhat confusingly, referred to as cryotherapy) is used by doctors and dermatologists to treat a variety of conditions ranging from skin tags to psoriasis. It's a procedure that's been in existence for nearly a century, originating when liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen came into use in the first half of the 1900s.
However, the cryotherapy that's been cropping up in wellness spaces—which can include whole body cryotherapy (WBC), as well as more localized treatments and facials—is a different breed. "For the body, cryotherapy can jumpstart the healing of damaged tissues, improve blood circulation, increase serotonin levels and decrease inflammation," says Holly Cutler, owner of FACE Skincare Medical Wellness in Bingham Farms, Michigan. Advocates of these frigid treatments say they're beneficial not only for boosting metabolism and immunity, but for calming the nervous system and easing pain.

When it comes to facial treatments, Cutler notes that cryotherapy can increase radiance, diminish fine lines and wrinkles, lighten acne scars, and relieve symptoms of conditions like rosacea and eczema. According to CRYO Science CEO Amir Amirsadeghi, cryotherapy is actually an ideal complement to more aggressive facials. "It helps reduce that inflammation and improve collagen production during those treatments," he says.
At FACE Skincare, Cutler offers three cryo-based facials, including the CryoQuantum (60 min./$345). The protocol starts with resurfacing treatments and infusion therapy to exfoliate, hydrate and plump the skin. That's followed by the cryogenic treatment that, as Cutler explains, "uses a controlled beam
of vaporized liquid nitrogen to produce tightness in the skin and fill in wrinkles, as well as help improve skin tone, redness and inflammation." The service ends with a combination of oxygen infusion and light therapy aimed at boosting collagen production and nourishing the complexion.
Cutler admits that clients typically react with confusion when they hear about the cryofacials that her spa offers. "They're definitely uncertain about what to expect and tend to assume they will be cold and unable to enjoy the overall experience," she explains. "But we tell them that it won't be uncomfortable because these facials are using cryotherapy as a localized treatment, rather than a whole body experience."

Local cryotherapy can also be applied to other areas—for instance, to help ease joint pain related to injuries and arthritis, notes Vladimir Turovskiy, AP, physician of Oriental medicine at Carillon Miami Wellness Resort in Miami. "We implement cryotherapy routinely in our integrative approach to pain therapy and weight loss, as well as in cosmetic treatments," he says, adding that the post-treatment remarks he hears have been nothing short of glowing. "It's very common for clients to comment about how relaxed and rejuvenated they feel," he continues, noting that this is especially true after the Cryo- Face, Neck, Décolleté Lift (12 min./$72). The service involves a blast of cryogenically cold air—applied in circular motions over the eyes, forehead, neck and chest—to stimulate collagen production, reduce wrinkles and minimize eye puffiness. A spritz of collagen spray completes the procedure.
Of course, whole body services are growing in popularity and are what most people associate with cryotherapy. When a client steps into a specialized chamber for two to five minutes, they're instantly surrounded by freezing temperatures that slow their heart rate and lower their overall body temperature by upwards of 45 degrees. At US Cryotherapy in Studio City, California, the WBC treatment lasts three minutes ($50) and is designed to help clients reduce pain, inflammation and stress, as well as improve energy levels. "They leave feeling rejuvenated— and warmer than when they arrived," says US Cryotherapy co-owner Susan Sagheb. "The refreshed and reinvigorated feeling is worth the temporary and brief feeling of cold," she continues. "You can do anything for three minutes!"

We calculate the intrinsic value of VAR stock by summing up the current values of future distributable cash flows generated by the company and dividing the sum by the number of outstanding shares. As such, the intrinsic value calculation depends entirely on projections. The more accurate your projections of the company's performance are - the more reliable is the intrinsic value calculation result. Please make sure to check the stock valuation input data below and adjust it if necessary. The quality of the output (intrinsic valuation result) is only as good as the quality of the input. See also DISCLAIMERS.
Varian Medical Systems, Inc. is a manufacturer of medical devices and software for treating cancer and other medical conditions with radiotherapy, radiosurgery, proton therapy and brachytherapy medical devices and software for treating cancer and other medical conditions with radiotherapy, radiosurgery, proton therapy and brachytherapy. The Company also has Varian Particle Therapy (VPT) and the operations of the Ginzton Technology Center (GTC). Its VPT business develops, designs, manufactures, sells and services products and systems for delivering proton therapy, another form of external beam radiotherapy using proton beams for the treatment of cancer. Its ProBeam system is capable of delivering intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) using pencil beam scanning technology. Its ProBeam Compact is a single room proton therapy product.
Revenue. Company's revenue (or sales) is always the starting point of any cash flow forecast. In the VAR stock intrinsic value calculation we used $0 million for the last fiscal year's total revenue generated by Varian Medical Systems, Inc.. The default revenue input number comes from 0001 income statement of Varian Medical Systems, Inc.. You may change it if you feel that it should be adjusted for some unusual circumstances that are not expected to be repeated in the future or if you already know (from interim financial statements, for example) that this year's revenue is going to be quite different.
We use three input parameters to forecast the revenue growth rate in our VAR stock valuation model: a) initial revenue growth rate of 9.2% whose default value is the revenue growth rate in the most recent quarter compared to the quarterly revenue a year ago; b) terminal revenue growth rate of 5% whose default value is chosen to be close to the average nominal (i.e. not adjusted for inflation) GDP growth rate; and c) revenue decline factor of 0.9, which stipulates that revenue growth rate in each forecasted year will be equal to the difference of the revenue growth rate in the preceding year and the terminal revenue growth rate multiplied by this revenue decline factor (with the passage of time the revenue growth rate will be approaching the terminal revenue growth rate, but not quite reaching it - though the difference could be infinitesimally small).
The initial discount rate of 4.3%, whose default value for VAR is calculated based on our internal credit rating of Varian Medical Systems, Inc., is applied to the cash flow expected to be received a year from now (well, actually, to be precise, in the financial year following the base year - the last year for which we have financial statements). For each consecutive year the discount rate is multiplied by the discount rate multiplier of 1.05, e.i. each year it increases by 5%. Feel free to change this number to correspond to your level of risk assessment of Varian Medical Systems, Inc..
Variable cost ratio is the ratio of variable costs (i.e. costs that fluctuate with fluctuation of the volume of production) to the revenue expressed as a percentage. In the calculation of intrinsic value of VAR stock the variable cost ratio is equal to 52.9%.
Fixed operating expenses is just that - expenses that are not dependant on the volume of production. They are set to $956 million in the base year in the intrinsic value calculation for VAR stock. These expenses increase with the level of inflation in subsequent years.
Interest rate on debt is the average all-in rate of interest paid by the company on its debt. It is set at 5.4% for Varian Medical Systems, Inc..
Corporate tax rate of 27% is the nominal tax rate for Varian Medical Systems, Inc.. In reality, companies find ways to pay much less taxes than that or not to pay them at all.
Cash flow adjustment could be used for any adjustment the investor deems necessary. Most commonly we use this field to account for stock options-related effects in excess of what is reported on the company's income statement. The cash flow adjustment is expressed as a percentage of the revenue, and in the current valuation of the VAR stock is equal to 0%.
Production assets are the company's assets used for manufacturing products or provision of services. In the valuation model input table they are expressed as a percentage of revenue and for VAR are equal to 15%.
Life of production assets of 8.4 years is the average useful life of capital assets used in Varian Medical Systems, Inc. operations. It is used to calculate yearly capital expenditures needed to keep these assets in good order - we call it the maintenance CAPEX.
Working capital is the difference between the company's current assets and liabilities. In the model we use the ratio of working capital to revenue, which for VAR is equal to 11.8%. A negative number means that the company is apt at using financial resources of its suppliers and customers; a large positive number, on the other hand, means that it either provides in-kind financing to others or is not good at managing its inventories.
Book value of equity - $1584.4 million for Varian Medical Systems, Inc. - is used in calculation of the "floor" for intrinsic valuation based on the discounted cash flow (DCF) method. Even if the prospects are very bad for a company, its assets could always be sold now for their current fair market value.
Shares outstanding of 90.776 million for Varian Medical Systems, Inc. is needed to calculate the intrinsic value of one share.
Market capitalization is used here only for reference purposes and as a quick check that the share price and the number of shares outstanding numbers are correct - something especially to be cognizant about at stock splits. So, the market capitalization of Varian Medical Systems, Inc. at the current share price and the inputted number of shares is $11.9 billion.

Gary Post-Tribune, Friday, 16 November, 1923
Dunes Route Formally Opened
THOUSANDS SEE `WONDER HIGHWAY' DEDICATED BY OFFICIALS OF 3 STATES
Bronze Tablet, Marking Route, Placed at Baileytown With Appropriate Ceremonies; Banquet This Evening
Dunes Highway, "the shortest possible route between the Atlantic and the Pacific," was this afternoon formally accepted by the state and federal governments which jointly built it, and was dedicated to the use of the public.
Official dedication of what is declared to be the greatest highway in the United States, was accompanied by a monster parade of automobiles, strains of patriotic music, waving of banners, installation of a memorial tablet, talks by road officials of Indiana, Michigan and Illinois, and winding up this evening with a banquet at Hotel Spaulding in Michigan City.
The great auto parade which formed on Broadway, moved toward Michigan City shortly after 2 o'clock this afternoon, with more than 300 cars in line, carrying more than one thousand people. The parade was led by a motorcycle squad of police, followed by Perry's Municipal band, cars containing officials of the highway commissions and associations of three states and followed by miles of automobiles containing citizens of Chicago, Gary, Michigan City and intermediate towns and cities.
HISTORY OF THE NEW ROUTE DEDICATED TODAY
The history of the Dunes Highway, dedicated with elaborate ceremonies this afternoon, is presented on Page 19 of this edition of the Gary Post-Tribune together with a brief summary of the facts concerning this engineering marvel. The story is illustrated with photographs taken in the region of the highway.
Officials in Line.
The Gary cars, containing officials of the Dunes Highway association, the Hoosier State Automobile association and members of the several state highway commissions and other organizations, were joined here by hundreds of cars containing Chicago and Michigan City people, the whole forming a line of march several miles long.
Out on East 5th avenue, along Gleason road, through heretofore impassable swamps over the new highway to Baileytown, the oldest white settlement in northern Indiana, and over the old Detroit-Chicago Indian trail, now transformed into a modern concrete highway, the long caravan moved, completing the dream of the group of men who conceived and put into execution one of the most wonderful road-building projects in the middle west.
From Gary to Baileytown, 13 miles east of Broadway, the official caravan was led by the Hoosier State Automobile association, while from Baileytown to Michigan City, a distance of 12 miles, the parade was led by the Michigan City delegation of 50 cars containing officials and members of the chamber of commerce of that city.
At Baileytown a 20-minute stop was made to place a bronze tablet by the side of the highway and to allow the Dunes Highway association, through Capt. H. S. Norton, to make formal presentation of the great highway to the state of Indiana.
John D. Williams, director of the Indiana highway department, made a fitting response in which he accepted the new highway, after which the parade continued on its way to Michigan City.
Official Delegations.
Among the cars composing monster parade were those containing officials and members of the following organizations:
Dunes Highway association which stands sponsor for the construction of the great trans-continental and round the lake thoroughfare.
State highway commission of Indiana, which with the aid of the federal government, built the million dollar highway.
Members of the state highway commissions of Michigan and Illinois.
Hoosier State Automobile association.
Illinois Automobile club of Chicago.
Officials and members of the Michigan City Chamber of Commerce.
Officials and members of the Gary Commercial club.
Officials and members of the Gary Chamber of Commerce.
Officials and members of the Lake County Good Roads association.
Officials of the West Michigan Pike association.
Gary city officials.
Officials of the Sheridan Drive association of Illinois and Michigan.
The big parade was expected to arrive in Michigan City in time to drive through the city to the Michigan state line, a distance of three miles beyond the city, where Dunes Highway is connected with the Michigan highways leading to Detroit and also to Mackinaw at the head of Lake Michigan.
Banquet Tonight.
Dinner was to be served at 6 o'clock this evening at Hotel Spaulding, Michigan City. Covers were to be laid for 250 guests, among them the highway officials of Indiana, Michigan and Illinois.
F. H. Doran of Michigan City was to preside at the dinner and addresses were to be made by A. S. Hess, Captain H. S. Norton and W. P. Gleason of Gary, Earl Crawford of the Indiana state highway commission and by officials of Michigan and Illinois automobile organizations.
The distance to be traveled by the big motor parade is 25 miles from Gary to Michigan City, and three miles in addition, in the event the caravan proceeds to the Michigan state line.
At the Spaulding hotel banquet tonight the promoters and builders of Dunes Highway are expected to relate the dreams of its advocates, the gigantic task of construction, and the wonderful tide of traffic it will bear during the years to come.
They will tell their hearers that Dunes Highway is positively the shortest route between the east and the west; between Chicago and Detroit, and is one of the most important links in the proposed 700-mile highway around Lake Michigan beginning in Chicago and ending in the same city.
Gary speakers will point out that 5th avenue in Gary will bear all of the Dunes park traffic, which is estimated at 25,000 cars daily. They will point out that when Dunes Highway is fully completed between Gary and Michigan City there will not be a single surface railroad crossing in the entire distance of 25 miles and that it will effect a saving of 13 miles in the present distance between Michigan City and Chicago and between South Bend and Chicago.
Overheads to Be Built.
Two overhead crossings, one in Miller, three miles east of Broadway, and one near Baileytown, 13 miles east of Broadway, remain to be constructed and State Highway Commissioners Williams and Crawford are expected to state tonight that these two overhead crossings will be constructed during the coming year.
Dunes Highway, when fully completed, will have cost the state and federal governments $1,000,000.
The total length between Broadway, Gary, and Michigan City is 25 miles wide. The concrete roadway is 20 feet wide and of 10-inch steel reinforced construction. Dunes Highway has been nearly two years in building and is pronounced by competent engineers to be one of the most wonderful examples of road construction in the United States.
Dunes Highway Follows Demand for Short Route
GARY PUSHES MODERN HIGHWAY OVER TRAILS ONCE USED BY INDIANS
BY TOM CANNON.
Dunes Highway, just completed and opened to traffic between Gary and Michigan City at a cost of $1,000,000 was constructed in response to a demand for a shorter motor route between the east and the west and to eliminate dozens of dangerous railroad crossings in the northern part of Indiana contiguous to Lake Michigan.
The new highway is a combination of the old and the new. Part of it was built through impassable swamps and part of it traverses a region rich in historic interest.
For several miles the new highway was pushed through swamps, covered most of the year with water. From Baileytown, the oldest white settlement in northern Indiana, to Michigan City it follows the old Detroit-Chicago Indian trail, afterward the military road from Detroit to Fort Dearborn at the mouth of the Chicago river and still later used as a stage coach route between Detroit and Chicago.
Pioneer Plan
As the red men, the early explorers, the trappers, traders and soldiers, took the shortest possible route around the lower end of Lake Michigan, so Dunes Highway follows the straightest and shortest possible route along the shore of the lake, penetrating swamps and cutting through sand dunes that were of necessity avoided by the Indians and early white explorers, and forming an engineering feat which has attracted world-wide attention.
Dunes Highway follows nearly a straight line between Gary and Michigan City, paralleling the South Shore interurban railroad and for the entire distance skirts the famous Indiana sand dunes which are plainly visible all the way from Gary to Michigan City.
Near Tremont, 15 miles east of Gary, the new highway runs along the southern boundary of the proposed Dunes state park, which the state of Indiana plans to buy and transform into a state park.
The Dunes Highway project had its birth just five years ago and it passed through all the ailments and epidemics to which infants are subject. The history of the project and its subsequent progress toward fulfilment and completion may be summed up as follows:
On Dec. 6, 1918, Henry M. Miles, city engineer of Michigan City read a paper before the streets and highways committee of the chamber of commerce in that city in which he set forth the needs of "Trunk Line Highways."
In that paper Mr. Miles declared that in the near future a national highway would be constructed along the South Shore interurban line between Gary and Michigan City, thus eliminating all grade crossings as well as shortening the distance between the two cities a little more than 12 miles.
A copy of Mr. Miles' paper was sent to the Gary Commercial club and made such a deep impression upon the officials and members of that organization that a meeting was called to consider the subject. At that time A. S. Hess was chairman of the automobile and good roads committee of the commercial club. He sent invitations to citizens of Michigan City, Hammond, Whiting, East Chicago and other cities to be present.
The commercial club meeting was held on Jan. 20, 1919, and was attended by representatives of practically every city in Lake, Porter and Laporte counties.
Talks were made by W. H. Loutit, president of the West Michigan Pike association and by F. L. Loutit, president of the Sheridan Drive association, both of whom pointed out the great benefits to be derived from the building of the road which would form a link in the transcontinental route, as well as the proposed 700-miles highway around Lake Michigan. This could be done, they declared, by building an air-line highway between Gary and Michigan City, linking up the Sheridan Drive system on the west shore of Lake Michigan with the West Michigan Pike system which followed the east shore of Lake Michigan to the straits of Macinac.
The result of the talks was the organization of the Dunes Highway association with the following officers:
President--A. S. Hess of Gary.
Vice president--W. E. Jewell of East Chicago.
Vice president--George Johnson of Michigan City.
Treasurer--C. B. Campbell of East Chicago.
Secretary--Walter K. Greenebaum of Michigan City.
At the commercial club meeting, at which the association was formed, Mayor W. F. Hodges delivered the address of welcome and urged the organization of a Dunes Highway association.
Named Committees
Following the organization of the association, President Hess named the following engineers to make a preliminary survey of the route and submit a report thereon: Henry M. Miles of Michigan City, A. P. Melton of Gary, Ralph Rowley of Gary, W. P. Cottingham of Gary, Ray Seeley of Hammond, C. K. Wallace of East Chicago, William Bridge, of Hammond, F. O. Hodson of Gary and Roy Pierce of Hammond.
President Hess also named the following committees:
Membership--John Faulknor, Perry H. Stevens and C. M. Reed.
Finance--Z. B. Campbell, H. V. Armstrong and James W. Shaw.
Publicity--A. F. Knotts, H. R. Misener, Capt. H. S. Norton and W. K. Greenebaum.
Legislative--Robert Moore, Harry Call, J. Glenn Harris, W. F. Hodges, M. E. Crites.
The engineers' report was made to President Hess on May 22, 1919, the members of the engineers' committee losing no time in making the survey although it was in the spring of the year when more than seven miles of the route was covered with water from one to six feet in depth.
In their report the engineers recommended the location of the highway along the line where it was subsequently laid ou
[portions of my old newspaper transcription files have been corrupted]
the Michigan City Chamber of Commerce and other commercial organizations throughout the state, the result of which was that the legislature finally passed the bill which had been drawn under the instruction of President Hess of the Dunes Highway association. This bill was passed at the session of 1921.
From that time for several months a lot of correspondence passed between the officials of the Dunes Highway association and the members of the state highway commission.
This correspondence continued until Aug. 30, 1921, when a group of Michigan City and Gary men, accompanied by Secretary M. E. Noblets of the Hoosier State Automobile association went to Indianapolis and appeared before Governor McCray and the members of the state highway commission.
A picture of the celebrated "Go-get-'em" group appears in this issue of the Post-Tribune.
The result of this final appeal was that on September 15, 1921, Chief Engineer Charles Gray and his staff came to Gary to begin the final survey of the road. They were accompanied to the starting point in Miller by President Hess of the Dunes Highway association and a number of other Gary boosters. Mr. Moore, representing the federal aid department of roads also was in the party.
On March 19, 1922, the state highway commission awarded the contracts for the construction of Dunes Highway between Gary and Michigan City.
The western section of the highway between Gary and Baileytown was awarded to the General Construction company of Gary. The eastern section between Baileytown and Michigan City was awarded to the Chicago Heights Coal company. About 18 miles were included in the two contracts.
The specifications called for a 20-foot roadway of reinforced steel and concrete construction, with a thickness of 20 inches in the middle and nine inches at the sides, with a five-foot embankment or berm on each side of the pavement.
Both contracting concerns went to work soon after the contracts were let and work was vigorously prosecuted on both ends until they were completed.
Old Detroit Stage Road
The eastern portion of the road followed the old Detroit stage road and presented no engineering difficulties. It was completed several months ago.
That section of the highway between Gary and Baileytown passes through deep swamps. The giant dredges and scoops were moved on caterpillar tractors mounted on rafts and frequently one of them toppled over into deep water and had to be retrieved with derricks and cranes.
But perseverance and push triumphed over all obstacles and Dunes Highway is now completed with the exception of two over head crossings, one in this city and one near Baileytown. Director Williams of the state highway commission is quoted as saying that the contracts for these will be let early next spring.
The Dunes Highway association had some difficulty in securing the rights of way over a number of small tracts of land near Baileytown and it became necessary to condemn several strips.
On the other hand, the Inland Steel company which owned more than a mile of right of way each of Gary, cheerfully and promptly donated the same to the state.
The city of Gary also secured and transferred to the state an expensive right of way in the eastern part of the city near Aetna and in Miller.
Bowers Pushed Work
Another Gary citizen who is given much credit for the successful accomplishment of the great road-building task is John O. Bowers, who spent much time and money in securing rights of way for Dunes Highway.
Dunes Highway at the Gary end connects with 5th avenue and Industrial Highway leading directly through East Chicago, Whiting and South Chicago to Chicago. At the Michigan City end it connects with Lincoln Highway via the Michigan City and Bootjack route and with the Michigan highway system at the state line three miles northeast of Michigan City.
From the Illinois state line to Bootjack, via the present road, the distance is 53 miles.
By way of Dunes highway the distance between the Illinois state line and Lincoln avenue at Bootjack will be 36-3/4 miles, a saving of 16-3/4 miles.
Dunes Highway, when completed, will cost $1,000,000--but it will be worth the price, Gary boosters point out.

As I set listData to blank, every time I changed Text in TxtInput and to fetch data from server my state listData should be empty.Right ?
but I get duplicate views in my UI. Why ?
I guess when I changed my text in TextInput, multiple request was send to server at the same time which make state update randomly and can not be sure listData is empty when I call this.setState(). If I am right, how  to prevent this happen ?

Imagine! He calls us His Beloved!
Like the "association" word game, Holly Mueller names this week's theme: "He calls you beloved." And–although I know "He" is God–I zone-in on "beloved," and immediately say in return: Henri Nouwen.
Henri Nouwen, priest, professor, psychologist, "Wounded Healer," and author of Life in the Beloved is the human instrument God used forty years into my Baptized life to convince me that I am His beloved.
Until I read that blessed book, I never thought of myself or identified myself as God's beloved. Sure, I knew that God loved me. God loves every person He ever created. Ah, but being someone's "beloved," to me that raised "loving" to a whole other level.
To me, beloved describes who I am to someone. Someone can love me (show me various loving actions), but not count me as his or her "beloved." To me, it doesn't get any better than being one's beloved.
Until Henri Nouwen told me, in no uncertain terms, that I am the beloved of the Lord's, I never considered such a possibility. Reading Nouwen's book changed my self-image in light of how God sees me, holds me up. I am not just His daughter. No. I am His beloved daughter.
Being beloved is not a passive identity; it is a dynamic relationship with God that demands an active response. And since Jesus said that if we love Him, we will love our brothers and sisters, as He loves us, which is how the Father loves Him, being the beloved is a sacrificial responsibility, as well as a privilege.
In reciprocity, in responding to God as His beloved, and in fulfilling my role, then, to God as my Beloved, Henri Nouwen explains that God invites me to love as He does: taken, blessed, broken, given.
If you have not yet read Nouwen's book, I heartily recommend it. Though I still have a lot of believing to do that I am God's beloved—and responding as if I really believe that—Nouwen's book truly was transformative.
Sadly, Fr. Nouwen died almost twenty years ago. I miss his continued wisdom. Nonetheless, for me, his greatest gift was not only telling, but convincing!, me in his Life of the Beloved that I am God's beloved.
Besides the opening quote, here are some other excerpts from the book courtesy of Good Reads, which also shares a brief biography and bibliography of his works: Henri J.M. Nouwen.
Since reading Life of the Beloved, I've gone on to read more than a dozen of Fr. Nouwen's books. In Memoriam is one that has given me great peace in response to the "loss" of those beloved to me. The Return of the Prodigal Son is an excellent book to read in response to the upcoming Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy.
Speaking of reading his books, writing about Life of the Beloved has inspired me to once again re-read the book that so changed my life. If you haven't read it yet—or even if you have—I hope you'll favor yourself by joining me in that amazing, affirming reading experience.
Beloved of God. That would be us. That would be our amazing, gratuitous gift from our Loving God. That would be our core identity. And that's well worth (re)reading about!
How or when did you discover the truth about yourself–that God calls you His beloved?

Love this week's theme. Just went downstairs and retrieved this book. I bought it for $2 at our library book sale based on Nouwen's name recognition. Now with your enthusiastic endorsement, I'm moving it to the top of my inspirational pile.
Excellent! I have every confidence you won't be disappointed. Thank you so much for reading/commenting. God bless you!
What a wonderful connection – I'll have to read this book! I like how you distinguished being loved from being beloved – that it's a more interactive state. Thank you for your insight!
Thank you for taking time to read/respond, Holly! …Looks as if you were able to access the comment field! Hooray! God bless you!
I think you've explained well the way our concept of God's love is often tied into how someone helps us understand it–by words (Henri Nouwen in your case) or by actions. The challenge, then, is to live that way before someone else, so that they will have the conviction God loves them because of the way we love.
I have one Henri Nouwen book – 'With Burning Hearts.' I love it. Have read some of it several times and get new insights whenever I do.
You are so very right!!! And since we're supposed to live that way, the hardest part for me is really staying in conviction that I am His beloved. Thank you for your practical suggestion of noticing special times on the clock as a special time to remember that God reaches out to us in our belovedness to Him. Worked for me yesterday at 11:11. Reminded me, too, of Veterans Day coming up and how so many Christians, "Soldiers" for Christ by Baptism and Confirmation have sacrificed their lives in defense of God's Heavenly Kingdom on Earth. So sad what is happening to Christian-martyrs around the world. If only we all Christians and not treated each other with the respect due to each beloved child of God's. Thank you so much for taking time to read and to share your deep insights. …If Henri Nouwen's books were courses, I happily could have majored in him:) … His writings really speak to me–praise God! …God bless you. Thanks for keeping time with the Lord.
Bobbie, I was fascinated by your recounting of Henri Nouwen's book so I googled him and found many quotes. This one resonated with me: "To be chosen as the Beloved of God is something radically different. Instead of excluding others, it includes others. Instead of rejecting others as less valuable, it accepts others in their own uniqueness. It is not a competitive, but a compassionate choice." It fits into my thoughts of acceptance and choosing kind. What an amazing statement that I shall ponder today. Thank you.

Reclusive TV twins didn't seem to 'need anybody,' friend says
March 7, 2012 | 2:21 pm
The elderly twins who died mysteriously in South Lake Tahoe were inseparable, a longtime friend said Wednesday.
"They were always together," said Betty Mitchell, 89. "They really didn't seem to need anybody else in their lives."
Patricia and Joan Miller, identical twins who performed on a TV show in the 1950s, were found dead in their home last week. No relatives have come forward despite media reports. It's unclear how they died.
Mitchell said she supervised Patricia Miller in the 1970s in the El Dorado County social services office. Joan Miller worked in the Lake Tahoe Unified School District during that time. Earlier in their lives, they worked as entertainers.
In Lake Tahoe, the sisters briefly sang in a local choir, Mitchell said, but they mostly kept to themselves. Mitchell said she rarely saw them apart.
"They had been together all their lives, literally, in utero on," she said.

xmas eve supply run & illegal solar test
maybe the asian supermarkets would be opened tomorrow but we couldn't take that chance. besides, another potential snowstorm would arrive later tonight, so tomorrow would not be a good driving day. that left just today for a supply run to the super 88 in malden. my parents came to get to a bit after 10am, which would give us enough time to come back so my father could go to sancta maria to feed my grand uncle his lunch. along the way i kept seeing solar power everywhere, now that i'm able to recognize their telltale utility boxes. we returned to belmont by 11:40am.
one thing we didn't consider when we installed our solar panels was the fact that they would be discreetly mounted in the back of the house. it's nice in some ways because you'd never know just from the front that we had 24 panels out back. but it's bad in some ways because all that money spent and we never see the panels unless we went into the backyard.
the ice that'd formed from the freezing rain that fell yesterday and glazed everything outside had melted from most of the solar panels on the roof except for the 11 panels on the sunroom roof, which has a shallow incline. my father said earlier he could hear the ice sliding off the panels like an avalanche.
my father fired up the inverter so we could give our solar installation a test run. he learned how to do it from the electricians who come on friday. we didn't do it yesterday because of the cloudy sky and the panels were iced over with a layer of snow, but at least today there was a diffused brightness. only 23 panels came online, as the inverter went through its diagnostics, pinging each of the panels until it was able to see all 23.
we wanted to see if the panels were actually generating electricity. according to the LCD panel it was. but were we actually using said electricity? one way to tell was to monitor the readout on the electricity meter. sure enough, the numbers never increased when we turned on the inverter. looks like it's working!
later i noticed a few more things. the elster type R2S electricity meter provided by belmont municipal light had a handy digital LCD readout. i never noticed, but apparently there's some flashing arrows. previously it had been pointing right, but now hours after we turned on our solar inverter, the arrow was now pointing left in the opposite direction. could this be? could it already be doing net metering? the readout cycled to a different display, this time reading -1KHw. that could only mean one thing, that the solar panels had generated an energy surplus that was now going back to the grid. was this even legal? since hadn't passed the inspection yet, nor notified belmont light of our new solar install. the readout did show a warning icon, which meant it detected a tamper event.
whatever the case may be, for the few hours of daylight we were definitely getting free electricity from our panels. it was a nice feeling, like getting something for nothing, or that thrill you get when you find a really good bargain. my father was taking a nap and i couldn't wait for him to wake up and tell him the good news.
but as the day wore on, and as daylight became less and less, the solar panels were generating less power. the electricity meter started showing arrows pointing in both directions, and once it got dark, the arrow went back to pointing right, the numbers started advancing again, and the inverter went into night mode. we turned it off just in case, didn't want to run into any problems before the inspection.
after dinner i got my fuji bike from the garage. it'd been here since last tuesday, when i came over to my parents' place to spend the night so i could be ready for the solar install early next morning. biking home was a breeze as there wasn't a lot of cars out. besides, the fuji bike is designed for night riding, bespeckled with lights, perfect for christmas eve.
although i plunged the bathtub last night using the double plunger technique, it was still slow to drain. so i did it again tonight, using one plunger to block the overflow drain while using the other to pump main drain. it seemed to work better afterwards but only time will tell.

Twenty-Five Days of TSO – Day Nineteen
Back to a Reason (Part II)
The Lost Christmas Eve (2004)
The night seems to care
The dreams in the air
The snow's coming down
It beckons me dare
In 2001, Savatage released the album Poets and Madmen which featured the track Back to a Reason.
They revisit the song as part of Trans-Siberian Orchestra and in the process of rewriting much of the lyrics make the song fit the narrative of the story, that of a man who many years earlier put a child who was born without the advantages that most of us take for granted in a fully formed mind and body.
And in the night and in the snow and in the dark and on Christmas Eve he's brought back to a place in his life where he can bring himself to face what he's done and hope that on this night he can start to build the bridge to the past, and the child, that he abandoned all those years ago.
