Freelance Photographer Sues News Outlet for Copyright Infringement

Earlier this week, a freelance photographer, Terray Sylvester (the Plaintiff), who is based in Michigan filed a lawsuit against Breitbart News for copyright infringement.
According to the suit, the Plaintiff alleged that he is the owner of a photograph taken of protesting students and the image was repeatedly used by the news outlet without his permission. As a result, the Plaintiff filed a suit at U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C.
In his complaint, the Plaintiff stated that he captured a photograph in November 2015 while covering a student protest in Berkeley, California, and posted it on his Instagram page. He added that Breitbart News copied and pasted the copyrighted photograph on their website Breitbart.com as a featured image to various articles on their website without obtaining his permission.
"[The] Plaintiff is informed and believes that [the] Defendant, without the permission or consent of Plaintiff, has copied and used the Copyrighted Photograph. In doing so, Defendant violated Plaintiff's exclusive rights of reproduction and distribution. Defendant's actions constitute infringement of Plaintiff's copyright and exclusive rights under copyright," the complaint read.
Breitbart was founded in 2007 by the late Andrew Breitbart. It is currently run by Executive Chairman Stephen Bannon, who recently parted ways with the White House after serving as President Trump's chief strategist.
The case is currently pending.

How long have refugees been resettling in Idaho?
Who works with refugees in Idaho?
How are refugee service agencies connected in Idaho?
What services are provided by the resettlement programs?
How can I learn more about refugees who are coming to Idaho?
The U.S. definition of a refugee is: "Any person who is outside any country of such person's nationality or, in the case of a person having no nationality, is outside any country in which such person last habitually resided, and who is unable or unwilling to return to, and is unable or unwilling to avail himself or herself of the protection of, that country because of persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion."
Idaho entered the refugee resettlement arena in 1975, when Governor John Evans established the Indochinese Refugee Assistance Program in response to the need for all states to participate in the resettlement of refugees fleeing the overthrow of U.S. supported governments in Southeast Asia. The Refugee Act of 1980 was passed to set up systems to deal with the increasing number of refugees from Vietnam, and other countries of the world. In Idaho, the process of resettlement became more formalized under this Act.
The top five countries of origin for refugees resettled in Idaho in FY 2014 are Iraq, Congo, Bhutan, Burma, and Somalia.

First Deep Sea Mining Production Vessel Launched in China
Toronto-based Nautilus Minerals Inc. has announced that its newbuild deep sea mining production support vessel has been launched at the Mawei shipyard in China.
The vessel, named Nautilus New Era, will be used by Nautilus and its partner, Eda Kopa (Solwara) Limited, to mine for gold and copper at the Solwara 1 Project site in the Bismarck Sea of Papua New Guinea.
"Today's launch is a significant milestone for the Company and the deep water seafloor mining industry," said Mike Johnston, CEO of Nautilus. "Mawei Yard has designed and built the world's first Deep Sea Mining Production Support Vessel, in cooperation with Nautilus and Marine Assets Corporation."
About the Nautilus New Era
The Production Support Vessel (PSV), which Nautilus will charter from Dubai-based Marine Assets Corporation for a minimum period of 5 years, will be equipped with a dynamic positioning system which will provide a stable platform for deepsea mining operations irrespective of wind and wave conditions. The vessel is designed by SeaTech Solutions.
The PSV will be equipped with a moonpool through which the Subsea Slurry and Lift Pump (SSLP) and riser system can be deployed. On deck, the slurry will be dewatered and the solid material will be stored temporarily in the PSV's hull, and then discharged to a transportation vessel moored alongside. Filtered seawater is then pumped back to the seafloor through the riser pipes.
When completed, the PSV will measure 227 meters in length and 40 meters in width with accommodation for up to 180 people and generate approximately 31MW of power.
Final delivery of the vessel is scheduled for March 31, 2019.
"We believe that mining the seafloor for much-needed minerals will be a more cost-effective and environmentally friendly source of obtaining high-grade copper, gold and silver. Nautilus further differentiates itself from others by having a "first-mover advantage" which is protected by intellectual property and 20 patents. Once our new vessel is delivered, and subject to final funding, mining operations at 1600m water depth is anticipated to commence in late 2019," added Johnston
First production at the Solwara 1 project is scheduled for the third quarter of 2019.

Resources to plan a Venice visit
Great guides to plan a trip to Venice, Italy. I went to "La Serenissima" for my wife's birthday this year. Here's how to get the ideas of what to do while in Venice.
Dead tree guidebooks
The Rough Guide books have always served me really well, and for this trip to Venice they had the most up-to-date editions. I like paperback guidebooks, it's much more difficult to read a laptop while you're out and about. These are the ones I brought:
Rough guide to Venice and the Veneto. This is currently the definite guide on Venice and the surrounding Veneto region. From the water-lapped palaces along the Canal Grande to the buzzing Rialto market, the full-colour section introduces all of the regions highlights. With a lot of cultural background you'll find detailed accounts of all Venice's monuments and museums, from San Marco to the remote islands and useful information about Verona, Padua, Vicenza, Treviso, and a host of other Veneto towns and sights. Mind that as always, prices are likely to be outdated, places have closed or opened, and often Venetian sights are under wraps due to restoration! Check prices for The Rough Guide to Venice and the Veneto on Amazon.com.
The Rough Guides' Venice Directions . Perfect for a weekend break, Directions gives a high level rundown of the most important sights, activities, restaurants, and bars of this city of water and stone. We didn't use this much, as the selections are more high end than our budget allowed during this trip. However, if you're going for 2 or 3 days, this and a map is all you'll ever need. Amazon has a copy of The Rough Guides' Venice Directions with your name on it.
The Rough Guide to Venice Map . Not a guide but rather a very useful rip and waterproof map of Venice. Detailing the city streets quite well, I found this vital for late-night wanderings around the "City of Bridges". You can get your The Rough Guide to Venice Map from Amazon.
Venice visitor resources online
A month in Venice is Richard Callaby's blog about living in Venice. Go take a look, he's got quite a few great recommendations.
Time Out's online Venice visitors' guide - Time Out's free guide is much better than you'd expect for the brilliant price of $0. If you're doing like many others and spending just a day in Venice, this could be what you're looking for. Also has good links to the major sights' websites, nightlife listings, and tips on getting the most out of your visit whatever time of year you're going.
World66.com Venice travel guide - Also reasonably in-depth, it's also slightly more irreverent than the big commercial guides' tips. "The famous willy wonka-villages of Venice post a threat to the historical buildings, which are slowly sinking into the marshy ground" World 66 says about how Venice is under continuous threat from its own existence as a stony city built on a mud flat! Good food listings to boot.
Venice travel information from LonelyPlanet.com - The online info from Lonely Planet is as always brief. However, it's accurate and the Thorn Tree forums are a great resource for any traveler. Got a question? Here's the place to get it answered by another recent Venice visitor.

Iranian Presidential Hopeful Mahdi Karroubi: An Obama on the Persian Gulf?
by mgopin on May 31, 2009 · 2 comments
It is very important that we blog about the Iranian elections and expose to the world the Iranian choices. Read here on Karroubi's platform to open up the universities. There are conflicting polls on who is ahead, with state polls putting Ahmedinijad ahead, obviously. Ahmadinijad controls all the public television stations, which is what the vast majority of the country has access to. But the youth are with the reform candidates so they are trying to utilize every social media possible to reach the voters anyway. Therefore, Ahmadinijad is blocking Facebook as much as he can. Karroubi, like Obama, is focused on the internet, the youth, the disenfranchised. This is an unfair fight for the future of the people of Iran, and I believe it is the deciding factor for the future of peace and war in the Middle East. Candidate Moussavi is saying more what Westerners want to hear…
Just Not the Way Bush Did It: Democracy Promotion Revisited

Building Palestine from the Bottom Up by Shlomo Ben Ami
Shlomo is right, that the only tangible successes in Palestine in recent years have been the local, mayor-based projects of safety and security. He also knows well that without the political, endgame progress, that these local successes are just ways to make the Palestinian open-air prison of the West Bank into a nicer showcase of Bantustans. It can only be the prelude to nation building if President Obama rhetorically crushes the last vestiges of neoconservative tactics, this time in Jerusalem, that insists on driving Palestinians out of any place to live in their ancient city. This cannot continue, because it must be a home for two peoples.
The "bottom" that Shlomo points to, security and infrastructure projects, are not 'bottom' enough for me. The real 'bottom' of peacebuilding is the heart of these two peoples, the searing rage, anger, humiliation, fear and paranoia that must be responded to by …
The Ghost of Cyrus: Iranian Potential for Reform in the Nuclear Age
(Originally published at Sh'ma: A Journal of Jewish Responsibility, in a very good issue dedicated to Iran. It will give you a good overview of thinking in the American Jewish community right now on the slowly moving crisis with Iran)
Over the past 25 years I've developed relationships across the Middle East; in Syria, specifically, over the past five years. While I traveled as a peacemaker, to be cautious I would emphasize my role as a professor and only reveal my role as a rabbi when it felt safe. I never experienced any negative comments because I am a rabbi; rather I heard from some a longing to meet with old Jewish friends. Experiences with Syrians have given me confidence that similar inroads can be made in Iran. What Iran shares with Syria, most importantly, is a historical tradition of religious pluralism and progressive religious thinking. There is still …
LA TIMES REPORTS:Bible Texts Misused in Rumsfeld Reports, Religious Leaders Say
I spent almost an hour on the phone with this excellent reporter, Manya A. Brachear, who wrote the Los Angeles Times story. The more I studied the pictures the more horrified I became that this man was running the United States military, and that our country was actually engaged in a Christian crusade in the eyes of so many of its soldiers. I am so glad the reporter gathered the responses of the Christian community and I do hope that, as I said in the article, there is a bipartisan Christian effort to put this dark period behind us in the United States.
Here is an excerpt:
One passage plucked from the New Testament's Epistle to the Ephesians instructs believers to "put on the full armor of God."
An excerpt from the Old Testament's Isaiah directs them to "open the gates that the righteous nation may enter."

AN ASTONISHING EXPOSURE OF THE TRUTH BEHIND CHENEY'S CLAIMS–BY FELLOW SENIOR REPUBLICAN
This is a must read for those who want to follow the steadily unfolding truths behind Cheney's commitment to torture and violence. That it comes from a commtted fellow Republican in a very senior position makes it even more credible. Read the whole article by Laurence Wilkerson here. The essential lie that Cheney keeps telling is that President Obama is endangering the country by not following Cheney's commitment to torture. Below are excerpts:
First, more Americans were killed by terrorists on Cheney's watch than on any other leader's watch in US history. So his constant claim that no Americans were killed in the "seven and a half years" after 9/11 of his vice presidency takes on a new texture when one considers that fact. And it is a fact.
There was absolutely no policy priority attributed to al-Qa'ida by the Cheney-Bush administration in the months before 9/11. Counterterrorism czar
Mr. President, Inspire Parties to Conflict Overseas, But Don't Believe Everything You Are Hearing
by mgopin on May 25, 2009 · 10 comments
I was concerned by a recent description in the New York Times of the inner workings of Fatah, and the questions facing the United States and Israel. The author writes as if he accepts everything that Israeli leaders tell him at face value. Speaking about the question of a Fatah meeting in order to reform the movement and thus present a better challenge to Hamas at the polls, he writes:
For Israel and the United States, the problem is equally vexing. They have an interest in helping the nationalists to reform and hold their congress. But they also have to decide how much to help the new leaders, some of whom may end up becoming opponents if the peace negotiating process fails.
Oh really? Endless interviews with Fatah activists over the years come back to one theme: the leadership of Israel, in order to hold onto Judea and Samaria for …

Child Abuse by the Thousands in Ireland Raises New Questions about the Roots of Conflict
The revelations about massive abuse over decades at Catholic religious schools in Ireland continues to call attention to the Church's need for massive reform of its approach to children and their protection. But this is not a uniquely Catholic problem, and it goes deeper than that in terms of our whole approach to political and military conflicts facing humanity. Too often as we confront the conflicts facing humanity we look for political, economic, security, ethnic and religious roots of conflict. But in one study examining a thousand children who suffered child abuse, over half of those who were followed through to the age of thirty two were arrested for one crime or another. For those who have been victimized or who have witnessed it, just leading a normal life can become a challenge every day, to keep your head straight, to keep yourself from exploding, to keep yourself from being …
Dissident Writer Michel Kilo Freed in Syria
This is wonderful news. Michel is a proud Syrian patriot and a pioneer of nonviolent approaches to change in the Middle East. He deserves all the honors that can be bestowed on him for his courageous stances and his reputation as a man of great integrity and generosity. All he did was have the foresight to describe where Syria is going anyway in the age of Obama. I understand the nervousness of the regime in the age of Cheney and Rumsfeld, but our nonviolent citizens are the greatest assets of every civilization, not a danger. This is the lesson of reform that needs to come to every society in the Middle East, including the so-called democracies.

On Dec. 21, 2018, a hacker group known as the Dark Overlords threatened to dump classified insurance files that are allegedly related to the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center buildings. The hackers told the public that the files were taken from major global insurers like Lloyds of London and Hiscox Group. The Dark Overlord's announcement also included a demand for $2 million in bitcoins for a 10GB archive of files, according to the Pastebin post, which has since been scrubbed from the Internet. According to the publication Motherboard and a spokesperson for the law firm Hiscox Group, the files were stolen and likely did pertain to the 9/11 attacks. Since the group distributed this information across the web and made international headlines, The Dark Overlord's social media accounts were targeted and the hacker group was deplatformed from sites like Reddit and Twitter. After the wide range of censorship, on Jan. 2 The Dark Overlord explained in another Pastebin announcement that they would be dumping the data on the Steem blockchain.
The Dark Overlord's message on Pastebin explains the group planned on using the Steem blockchain before the account was banned on Jan. 7.
However, it seems publishing classified 9/11 data is not looked upon favorably by those who run Steemit. On Jan. 7, 2019, the Steemit Github repository shows the developer known as 'Jredbeard' appended the account 'thedarkoverlord' to the protocol's 'GDPRUserList.js' section. Essentially this means the account was banned from using the website for violating Steemit's terms of service (ToS) agreement. The action has also infuriated some members of the Steemit community as posts about the subject can be seen on the project's Reddit page r/steemit.
Steemit has censored the account of the Dark Overlords!! What was the point, Steemit?
Cryptocurrency enthusiasts upset over the account ban on the Steemit website.
Memo.cash is an uncensorable platform like Twitter.
Interestingly enough, some Steemit proponents defended the action and explained how The Dark Overlord account was only banned from the official Steemit website, noting that the group's posts could still be seen on alternative sites like Busy.org. Moreover, other cryptocurrency community members discussed other blockchain services that would help The Dark Overlord dump the data in a truly immutable fashion.
The hacker group could hypothetically utilize platforms like Memo.cash and Bitcoinfiles.com to communicate to the public and dump classified files without the risk of takedown. For instance, Memo acts like Twitter but every action is recorded into the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) blockchain. The posts cannot be taken down after they are etched into the BCH chain and one individual even started recording every verse in the King James Bible into the blockchain. Another example of a tool that could help whistleblowers is the Bitcoinfiles protocol developed by the BCH programmers James Cramer, Attila Aros, and Hapticpilot.
Users can upload and download files from the platform Bitcoinfiles which tethers uploads to the BCH chain and IPFS.
Bitcoinfiles is a file-sharing platform that allows anyone to upload any type of media file to both the Inter-Planetary File System (IPFS) protocol and the Bitcoin Cash blockchain. Once the files are recorded into the chain they can be shared widely and found easily using a blockchain explorer or queried on the Bitdb network. There is no developer or arbitrary individual who can delete the files once they are appended to the network and IPFS files tied to the BCH chain can be shared with anyone in the world using a simple URI.
Over the last year, deplatforming and censorship have continued to increase, but cryptocurrency and blockchain advocates believe it should not happen on their turf. It is obvious that centralized entities on the web will persist and suppress dissident voices and whistleblowers. As a result, blockchain applications that fight against this behavior will be welcomed with open arms by those who cherish the ability to speak freely.
What do you think about the hacker group The Dark Overlord being removed from the Steemit website? What media sharing platforms would you recommend that record immutable data onchain? Let us know what you think about this subject in the comments section below.

UK Homeowners Getting Older
By Adam Heaton 14 April 2016
Property in the UK is becoming even more difficult to afford, especially for those under the age of 30. With the average house in the UK now costing around £200,000, it is not surprising that a majority of under 30s are struggling to save up a deposit and get their foot firmly on the UK property ladder. (1)
The Cost of Owning Your Own Home
Everyone wants a place that they can call home. Somewhere you can come back to after a long day at work and feel safe, secure and spend time together with your loved ones. That is really what owning a home is all about isn't it? But sadly, for many graduates and young adults in the UK, this life goal is moving further and further away from their grasp, as property prices rise.
The average salary for a graduate in the UK, according to savethestudent.org is £25,000, although they also state that they have reported graduates earning between £16,000 to £70,000, so the exact figure depends entirely on the subject you chose to study and the industry you work in. (2)
Working Example
Let's discuss the possibility of a graduate who earns £25,000 owning their own home before the age of 30.
A three-year undergraduate course outside of London would leave the average graduate with a student debt of around £35,000- £40,000 according to which.co.uk. (3) You would be expected to begin to repay your student loan as soon as you earn £25,000 or over per year. The minimum amount you will be required to pay would be £30 per month.
After tax and your student loan repayments, a UK graduate earning £25,000 would take home on average £1650.60 per month. (4)
The average rental cost for a one-bedroom property in Manchester is approximately £600 per month. (5) According to the estimated living costs in Manchester, a month of public transport would cost £52, utility bills £150 (including council tax), mobile contract £30, Internet £20, gym membership £25, food bills of around £150 and the cost of maintaining a normal social life at approximately £200, would leave you with £422.60 to save towards a 15% deposit on a £162,532 house, the average cost of a property in Manchester, according to Rightmove. (6)(7)
If you were able to save the full £422.60 towards a deposit of £24,379, it would take approximately 4 years and 8 months to save up and purchase a first home. A graduate will normally finish university at around 21 years old, so you would be over 25 when you have saved enough for a 15% deposit. After four years, the UK property market will look considerably different, and experts predict that house prices will continue to rise. By the time you have saved up the 15% deposit, the £162,532 property might now cost £200,000. (8) A 15% deposit on this property would mean saving an additional £5,621, which could take over a year.
With the cost of getting married, potentially having children, owning your own car and paying for insurance and petrol, going on holidays, celebrating birthdays, as well as any other unseen costs that life can throw up, you can now begin to understand how some young adults find affording their first home very difficult.
Of course, there are many ways of cutting cost. Whether it be by sacrificing your social life, cutting down on food bills or using extra blankets rather than putting on the central heating. In addition, in some parts of the UK, you can find more affordable property, but you may need to set aside money for repairs, decoration and maintenance.
Pressure of Owning Your Own Home
Owning your own home can come with a serious amount of responsibility and financial strain, which some graduates are simply not prepared to put up with.
Taking out a mortgage is a big commitment and for those who feel unstable in their current job, or would struggle to meet the minimum mortgage repayments each month, this can be a lot of pressure and stress. The fear of having your own home being repossessed by your mortgage lender can be enough to put people off from purchasing a property.
A lot of graduates in the UK will travel around the country and sometimes abroad to pursue a career. The possibility that you may need to relocate and sell up quick, would not put yourself in a good position to purchase a property. It can take several months, and even years, to sell a house, which could affect your chances of securing a once in a lifetime position or dream job. Renting a property in these circumstances is far more practical.
According to a recent article in The Telegraph, the proportion of young people living in privately rented accommodation has 'risen markedly' over the past thirty years, with almost 64% of 21-25 year olds and 39% of 26-30 year olds renting in 2014, compared to just under 17% and 7.5% respectively in 1984. (9)
Renting to Save a Fortune
Many first-time buyers are choosing to rent affordable and all bills included properties in order to save as much money as possible towards a deposit. Renting a property enables young adults to save, work and live a less stressful life, during their first years as a working professional. If anything needs to be fixed, such as a boiler, it is the sole responsibility of the landlord to pay for the repair and fix the issue immediately, meaning no unforeseen substantial costs to worry about.
Property prices are rising and, despite the Government's best efforts to help first time buyers financially, owning your own home for many under 30s in the UK is becoming an unachievable goal. Renting is far more popular among young professionals and the demand for affordable modern city centre property is set to continue to rise.

We just released the results of our third annual drone industry benchmark survey and it's a kicker.
The 2018 Drone Market Sector Report examines worldwide drone sales, service providers, business and public agency users, and software services. This independent research, which is sponsored by DJI, DroneDeploy, DroneInsurance.com, and Trimble, finds a growing demand for businesses to use drone-acquired data in their day-to-day operations as well as other fresh insights on major drone industry segments.
Our online market survey garnered over 2,500 respondents representing over 60 industries worldwide. Our analysis yields 10 key insights that summarize the current state of the industry, plus detailed analysis of drone adoption by businesses and enterprises.
Who's buying what types of drones from which makers at what prices and for what uses.
How large the drone-based service providers are, and how they position themselves to their target industries.
Who the business users of drone-based projects are, and which industries have traction.
How much service providers, business users, and public agencies are using flight management, mission planning, and image processing software for drone-based projects.
Among the more interesting findings are that commercial drone fleet sizes are smaller than most people think. If you believe the hyperbole, there are hundreds of thousands of drones in the airspace at the same time, but the survey finds that the average commercial user has just two drones that are only flying two projects a month and most of those flights consume less than flight three hours.
Professional use of drones is growing. We find that almost three-quarters of all drones weighing over 250 grams are purchased for professional purposes—either governmental or business. This is up from last year.
DJI continues to dominate the market and has made gains this year in every category from drone aircraft at all price ranges, to add-on payloads, to software. Survey data shows DJI is still the dominant brand for drone aircraft purchases, with a 74% global market share in sales across all price points.
Most businesses and public agencies are new to drones, have small programs, and perform their own services. The survey finds that nearly three-quarters of businesses or public agencies have only had a drone program in place for two or fewer years.
As always, you have your feet firmly planted on the ground and in the real world. Thanks for sharing here, Colin.

In The News: Experimental Drug Made From Milk Thistle Saves Two Lives
Reader Contribution by Justine Patton

Two men who recently consumed poisonous mushrooms owe their lives to a new experimental drug, called silibinin. Why are we so excited about it here in the herb world, you ask? Because this new drug is made from milk thistle.
On September 12, Frank Constantinopla, a Springfield, Virginia resident, harvested a few mushrooms from his yard and threw them into a stir-fry that evening. Within a few hours, he and his wife were suffering of stomachaches and vomiting. When their symptoms didn't subside, Constantinopla visited an emergency room near his home and was sent to Georgetown Unviersity Hospital for a possible liver transplant. When he arrived, the doctors delivered some grave news: the mushrooms Constantinopla had consumed were a highly poisonous mushroom commonly known as death cap.
The doctors moved quickly and convinced Constantinopla to try silibinin, an experimental drug made from milk thistle. He recovered within a few days, no liver transplant needed.
A similar incident occurred less than one week later when a local farmer munched on a poisonous mushroom, commonly known as destroying angel, from his yard. Luckily, Lantz also ended up at Georgetown University Hospital, where he was given the same drug, and a full recovery ensued for him as well.

The fact that milk thistle contains many health benefits is not news. The plant, which has been used medicinally for thousands of years, was traditionally used as a spring tonic. The flower heads were often boiled and eaten, much like an artichoke. Milk thistle was also useful in treating jaundice.
Today, many researchers are studying this stout thistle to figure out what it really has to offer us. Many studies suggest that milk thistle may be useful in protecting against and treating liver conditions caused by environmental toxins and drugs that can harm the liver, like acetaminophen. New research is even suggesting milk thistle may be able to treat hepatitis and cirrhosis as well.
Milk thistle may have a few more years before it is widely accepted in the world of medicine, but this much is true: It has the potential to save many more lives. It's my guess that we'll be hearing much more about this herb, and all the good that it's doing, in the near future.

Where "ComputerName" is a machine on the LAN.
For each machine on our corporate network? I am pretty sure this is not how it's supposed to work.
If ComputerName resolves both to an IP that falls under LOCAL *and* to an IP that doesn't fall under LOCAL, ABE might be expected to block ComputerName from redirecting to itself.
Does the ABE rule change get it working?
Yes, the change makes it work.
Further investigation shows that that machine does not have an IPv4 address for some reason, only IPv6. Can that be the reason?

Do you have some sort of deployment software for all your corporate machines?

Likely yes, but I don't know the details of how ABE handles IPv6 addresses, sorry.

I'd say it's a bug then.


Why does the app need to know my location?
If the app for your church is on version 4.10+ for iOS or 3.8.0+ for Android, you will be asked to allow the app to access your location (see screenshots for examples).
The app is requesting this access to allow for geographic based notifications (coming soon). By allowing the app to access your location, you can ensure you'll receive notifications sent based on location, and thus you can stay up to date with news and information from your church!
Tip! We recommend not only allowing the app to access your location but choosing Always Allow if on iOS. If you only allow the app to access your location when using the app, you'll miss out on notifications scheduled to trigger when arriving at or leaving your church.
If you have already been using your churches app, you will see this prompt once the app is updated to include the new geographic based notification system. If you don't see this prompt appear, the app may not be updated — check with your church leadership to be sure.

#039 – Cities with Highest Rents Have Lowest Yields for Buy & Hold Real Estate 0
In which cities can you get the highest rents today, and yet still manage to get the lowest yields as a landlord?
San Francisco held on to it's title for having the highest rents in the nation in February, according to a report from ApartmentList.com. You'd have to pay $4,800 to rent a two-bedroom apartment in the City by the Bay.
In second place was New York City, where you'd have to pay $4,450, which is about 10% less than San Francisco. Jersey City, right across from the Big Apple, came in 3rd place at $3,150, which is about 30% less than San Francisco.
To compare, the median rent on a two-bedroom apartment nationwide was $1,300 in February.
Other cities that made the top 10 list for highest rents were: Washington DC, Boston, San Jose, Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago and Stamford, Connecticut.
But remember...what goes up, must come down when it comes to real estate that becomes so expensive, people can no longer afford it - especially when incomes haven't kept up.
If you're looking for cash flow property, at first glance, it may appear that cities with the highest rents may offer the best returns for landlords. But it's actually the opposite.
RealtyTrac® just released its Q1 Single Family Rental Market Report, which ranks the best markets for buying residential rental properties in 2016.
According to the report, the counties with the lowest and highest annual gross rental yields (in other words, areas with the worst cash flow on rental properties) were...

Installation
============

There are two different ways to install and use PySB:

1. **Install PySB natively on your computer (recommended).**

   *OR*

2. **Download a Docker container with PySB and Jupyter Notebook.** If you
   are familiar with `Docker`_, PySB can be installed from the Docker
   Hub by typing :command:`docker pull pysb/pysb`. Further details are
   below.

.. note::
    **Need Help?**
    If you run into any problems with installation, please visit our chat room:
    https://gitter.im/pysb/pysb

Option 1: Install PySB natively on your computer
------------------------------------------------

1. **Install Anaconda**

   Our recommended approach is to use `Anaconda`_, which is a distribution of
   Python containing most of the numeric and scientific software needed to
   get started. If you are a Mac or Linux user, have used Python before and
   are comfortable using ``pip`` to install software, you may want to skip
   this step and use your existing Python installation.

   Anaconda has a simple graphical installer which can be downloaded from
   https://www.anaconda.com/products/individual - select your operating system
   and download the 64 bit version. From PySB 2.0, we only support
   Python 3.x (see the :ref:`faq` for specific version support). The
   default installer options are usually appropriate.

2. **Install PySB**

   The installation is very straightforward with ``conda`` - type the
   following in a terminal:

       :command:`conda install -c alubbock pysb`

   .. note::
        You may wish to use the Anaconda prompt, which sets up the Anaconda
        paths automatically, rather than the standard command prompt or
        terminal on your operating system. Otherwise, you may have to use the
        full path to the ``conda`` command each time, and may end up using
        the system version of Python, rather than the Anaconda one.

   .. note::
        You can also install PySB using ``pip``, but in that case you will
        need to manually install `BioNetGen`_ into the default path for your
        platform (/usr/local/share/BioNetGen on Mac and Linux, c:\\Program
        Files\\BioNetGen on Windows), or set the `BNGPATH` environment
        variable to the BioNetGen path on your machine.

3. **Start Python and PySB**

   If you installed Python using `Anaconda`_ on Windows, search for and select
   ``IPython`` from your Start Menu (Windows). Otherwise, open a terminal
   and type ``python`` to get started (or ``ipython``, if installed).

   You will then be at the Python prompt. Type ``import pysb`` to try
   loading PySB. If no error messages appear and the next Python prompt
   appears, you have succeeded in installing PySB! You can now proceed to
   the :doc:`tutorial`.

Recommended additional software
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The following software is not required for the basic operation of PySB, but
provides extra capabilities and features when installed.

* `cython`_
  Cython is a package for compiling Python code into C code on the fly. It
  is used by :class:`pysb.simulator.ScipyOdeSimulator` to greatly improve the
  speed of ODE integration. PySB will detect and use Cython automatically,
  if available. To install with Anaconda, type
  :command:`conda install cython`.
  With pip, type :command:`pip install cython`.

* `matplotlib`_

  This Python package allows you to plot the results of your simulations. It
  is not a hard requirement of PySB but many of the example scripts use it.
  `matplotlib`_ is included with `Anaconda`_. Otherwise, it can be installed
  with :command:`pip install matplotlib`.

* `pandas`_

  This Python package provides extra capabilities for examining large
  numerical datasets, with statistical summaries and database-like
  manipulation capabilities. It is not a hard requirement of PySB, but it is a
  useful addition, particularly with large sets of simulation results.
  `pandas`_ is included with `Anaconda`_. Otherwise, it can be installed with
  :command:`pip install pandas`.

* `IPython`_

  An alternate interactive Python shell, much improved over the standard one.
  `IPython`_ is included with `Anaconda`_. Otherwise, it can be installed
  with :command:`pip install ipython`.

* `Kappa`_ 4.0

  Kappa is a rule-based modeling tool that can produce several useful model
  visualizations or perform an agent-based model simulation. PySB optionally
  interfaces with its *KaSim* simulator and *KaSa* static analyzer.

  To install Kappa for PySB use, put the ``KaSim`` executable (and optionally
  ``KaSa`` if you have it) in ``/usr/local/share/KaSim`` (Mac or Linux) or
  ``C:\\Program Files\\KaSim`` (Windows). If you would like to put it somewhere
  else, set the ``KAPPAPATH`` environment variable to the full path to the
  folder containing the ``KaSim`` and ``KaSa`` executables. Note that if you
  have downloaded the official binary build of KaSim, it will be named something
  like ``KaSim_4.0_winxp.exe`` or ``KaSim_4.0_mac_OSX_10.10``. Regardless of
  where you install it, you will need to rename the file to strip out the
  version and operating system information so that you have just ``KaSim.exe``
  (Windows) or ``KaSim`` (Mac or Linux).

  On Anaconda, Kappa can be installed with
  :command:`conda install -c alubbock kappa`.

Option 2: Docker container with PySB and Jupyter Notebook
----------------------------------------------------------

Background
^^^^^^^^^^

`Docker`_ is a virtualization platform which encapsulates software within a
container. It can be thought of like a virtual machine, only it contains
just the application software (and supporting dependencies) and not a full
operating system stack.

Install Docker and the PySB software stack
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

1. **Install Docker**

   To use PySB with Docker, first you'll need to install Docker, which can be
   obtained from https://www.docker.com/community-edition#/download (Windows
   and Mac). Linux users should use their package manager (e.g. ``apt-get``).

2. **Download the PySB software stack from the Docker Hub**

   On the command line, this requires a single command:

       :command:`docker pull pysb/pysb`

   This only needs to be done once, or when software updates are required.

3. **Start the container**

   Start the Docker container with the following command (on Linux, the command
   may need to be prefixed with ``sudo``):

       :command:`docker run -it --rm -p 8888:8888 pysb/pysb`

   This starts the PySB Docker container with Jupyter notebook and connects it
   to port 8888.

4. **Open Jupyter Notebook in a web browser**

   Open a web browser of your choice and enter the address
   http://localhost:8888 in the address bar. You should see a web page with the
   Jupyter notebook logo. Several example and tutorial notebooks are included
   to get you started.

Important notes for Docker installations
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To see graphics from matplotlib within the Jupyter Notebook, you'll need to
set the following option in your notebooks before calling any plot commands:

.. code-block:: ipython

    %matplotlib inline

Any Jupyter notebooks created will be saved in the container itself, rather
than on the host computer. Notebooks can be downloaded using the Jupyter
interface, or a directory on the host computer can be shared with the
container.

The PySB container builds on the Jupyter SciPy notebook, which contains
further information on the options available for the container (such
as sharing a directory with the host computer to preserve notebooks,
setting a password and more). Documentation from the Jupyter project is
available at
https://hub.docker.com/r/jupyter/scipy-notebook/

LONDON (Reuters) - Scientists have made the first human embryonic stem cells of a high enough grade to use in patients and deposited them in a public stem cell bank for development in human trials by drug companies and researchers by 2014.
A team from King's College London said on Monday they were submitting two clinical-grade stem cell lines to the UK Stem Cell Bank (UKSBC), which will test and validate them before offering them to researchers.
"This first batch of cells is the culmination of nearly 10 years of research. This is a significant milestone," said Peter Braude, who led the King's team.
The cells have the potential to become the "gold standard" lines for developing new stem cell based therapies for use in regenerative medicine trials in patients, Braude told reporters at a briefing.
Stem cells are the body's master cells, the source for all other cells. Scientists say they could transform medicine, providing treatments for blindness, spinal cord and other severe injuries, as well as generating cells for damaged organs.
"In the future, patients hoping for the benefit of regenerative medicine for serious medical conditions caused by illness, injury and ageing can expect improved progress on cures or amelioration from hES cell-based therapy," said Dusko Ilic, a senior lecturer in stem cell science at King's.
A few companies, such as Pfizer and Advanced Cell Technology, are already conducting or are about to start human trials using hES cells — which are harvested from embryos — to test their potential for repairing spinal cord injuries and eye disorders like macular degeneration.
Braude's team's cells were grown from frozen embryos donated by patients who had had in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatment and no longer wanted to use their remaining stored embryos. The embryos would otherwise have been discarded, Braude said.
Glyn Stacey, head of the UKSCB, said these first clinical grade lines would be an "important resource" and an initial step towards the bank's aim to make available a panel of tested clinical grade lines within the next three years.


I have decided I'm a bit bored of cooking and as my family love slow cooker dinners I have decided to use it everyday for a week. I don't think it's just a seasonal piece of equipment and it means not standing cooking when the sun (if it comes out again) is out then I'm all for it.
I'm not a great fan of microwave chips but I hate the way chips cook unevenly in the oven and maybe will eventually get a healthy fryer.
I wish I had the space for that many!
I do do other meals in the slow cooker but not prepped for instance Cherry Cola Gammon, Fish Pie Filling and Cottage Pie Filling – I reckon I will prob try out a Spag Bol one too. Both the latter could be bagged and frozen I would have thought.
Preheat oven to 180, put all ingredients in bowl and beat/mix until smooth.
Line tin with cases and half fill, bake for 18-20 minutes.
Beat the butter, milk, extract and half the icing sugar until smooth.
Gradually add the remainder of the icing sugar and beat until smooth and creamy.
When adding colouring always start with small amounts.
I usually do some mash potato to go with, but I'm guessing you could add rice (needs to be in the last 2 hours of cooking with 2 cups of liquid to 1 cup rice) or do chips?

Brighten our hearts, O my Lord, with the splendor of Thy knowledge, and illumine our sight with the light of such eyes as are fixed upon the horizon of Thy grace and the Day-Spring of Thy glory. Preserve us, then, by Thy Most Great Name, Which Thou didst cause to overshadow such nations as lay claim to what Thou hast forbidden in Thy Book. This, verily, is what Thou didst announce unto us in Thy Scriptures and Thy Tablets.
Cause us, then, to be so steadfast in our love towards Thee that we will turn to none except Thee, and will be reckoned amongst them that are brought nigh to Thee, and acknowledge Thee as One Who is exalted above every comparison and is holy beyond all likeness, and will lift up our voices amongst Thy servants and cry aloud that He is the one God, the Incomparable, the Ever-Abiding, the Most Powerful, the All-Glorious, the All-Wise.
Strengthen Thou, O my Lord, the hearts of them that love Thee, that they may not be affrighted by the hosts of the infidels that are turned back from Thee, but may follow Thee in whatsoever hath been revealed by Thee. Aid them, moreover, to remember and to praise Thee, and to teach Thy Cause with eloquence and wisdom. Thou art He Who hath called Himself the Most Merciful. Ordain, then, O my God, for me and for whosoever hath sought Thee what beseemeth the excellence of Thy glory and the greatness of Thy majesty. No God is there but Thee, the Ever-Forgiving, the Most Compassionate.

The stage is set for universal, rapid and massive growth of the Cause of God…. The all-important teaching work must be imaginatively, persistently and sacrificially continued, ensuring the enrolment of ever larger numbers who will provide the energy, the resources and spiritual force to enable the beloved Cause to worthily play its part in the redemption of mankind.

HUMAN RIGHTS LAWYER SHOT DEAD
By SIBONISO NKAMBULE | 2023-01-23
Human rights lawyer and Chairman of the Multi Stakeholder Forum (MSF) Thulani Maseko was shot dead while at his parental home at kaLuhleko (Bhunya) on Saturday night.
According to his family, Maseko was shot three times through a window, in the head and chest while watching television in his rest room.
He was shot in front of his wife and children.
The incident, which left the kaLuhleko community gripped by terror, happened at around 9pm as the Maseko family had returned from their travelling. According to a family member who did not want his identity revealed, the gunman shot Maseko through an open window while his children were playing with a cellphone in the same rest room.
He said Maseko's wife was busy with house chores when she allegedly saw the man pointing a gun through the window.
The family member said the wife tried to alert Maseko that there was someone at the window pointing a gun towards him but it was too late as the man pulled the trigger.
"He was shot in the head and chest, leaving a gaping hole on the chest," the source said.
He said Maseko's wife tried to chase after the shooter but her quest was cut short after the shooter spotted her.
The relative further stated that the shooter disappeared in the fields as neighbours who responded swiftly did not see him on the stretch of the road leading to Maseko's homestead.
He stated that as a family they were left with many unanswered questions as Maseko was a humble man who was loved by the community.
Narrating the events before Maseko was shot, the relative said he saw a car on the stretch of the road leading to his homestead and that it stopped at a distance and a man alighted and walked towards Maseko's homestead.
He said the vehicle then drove back to the main road.
"I paid attention as I thought he was coming to my homestead but instead he passed through, heading towards Maseko's place. The dogs started barking as he was walking by but I did not think he posed any danger," the relative stated.
He said after a few minutes, he heard gunshots and people shouting for help.
He said he called his children to ask them about the noise as they had a separate room, only to find that it came from Maseko's homestead.
Adding, the relative said he rushed to Maseko's homestead to investigate what was happening and was told that Maseko had been shot through an open window and that the suspect disappeared into the fields after committing the act.
He said they called the police who took long to respond.
When asked about who they suspected as a family, he said they did not know if Maseko had enemies or not but the truth was that the country had changed and innocent people were being killed.
He said they do not want to put the blame on anyone as Maseko was a friend of the community and the country at large.
He stated that it could happen that the shooter had crossed paths with Maseko and knew his daily routine.
He further said only people close to Maseko knew where he slept, as they had another house they did not sleep in, which was situated a few metres from his parental home.
According to the source, Maseko's wife told them that he had earlier mentioned that some people had waged a war against him.
He said Maseko treated everyone equally including the police with whom they discussed a number of issues. Chief Police Information and Communications Officer (PICO) Superintendent Phindile Vilakati confirmed that a man was shot several times while at his home at KaLuhleko area.

Another round of humanitarian aid to eastern Ukraine completed successfully
All trucks return to Russia empty

MOSCOW, December 21. /TASS/. Russia's emergencies ministry said on Sunday another round of humanitarian assistance to eastern Ukraine ended successfully.
All trucks return to Russia empty.
Medvedev orders to form a commission for humanitarian assistance to Donbas
"Another round of humanitarian operation is completed successfully. More than 180 trucks that delivered humanitarian cargoes to the Donetsk and Lugansk regions have returned to Russia empty," Alexander Drobyshevsky, a Russian emergencies ministry spokesman, told TASS.
All the trucks were checked by customs and border officers at two border checkpoints in Russia's southern Rostov region - Donetsk and Matveyev Kurgan - in the presence of Ukrainian customs officers and representatives from the mission of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE).
"The cargoes were delivered to the destinations. No accidents took place while the trucks were on their way to and from Donbass. The drivers fell well, the vehicles are in good conditions," said Vasily Myasnikov, a deputy chief of the Noginsk rescue centre.
Tenth, New Year, humanitarian mission
It was the tenth humanitarian convoy from Russia to eastern Ukraine. This time, about 900 tonnes of humanitarian assistance were delivered on Sunday to Donetsk, and more than 500 tonnes - to Lugansk. The humanitarian aid included food products, medicines, building materials and about 470 tonnes of New Year presents - stuffed toys, Christmas trees and decorations, and traditional New Year sweets.
All presents were packed in cardboard boxes with inscriptions saying "For children of Novorossia." These presents were raised in a public campaign in Russia's Voronezh, Belgorod, Lipetsk, Saratov, Kursk and Yaroslavl regions.
Ten-kilometre convoys
The tenth humanitarian convoy was among the most massive. The trucks set off at 04:00 a.m. on Sunday from the emergencies ministry's Don rescue centre. Before the border it broke down in two ten-kilometre lines of trucks. This time it took such lengthy convoys more time to reach their destinations in Donetsk and Lugansk and be unloaded there.
In all, the ten Russian humanitarian convoys have delivered more than 13,000 tonnes of humanitarian cargoes to eastern Ukraine.

Q: special characters and compose key in Kile I've been using Kile (with various Ubuntu distributions) for ages without any problem to write my maths papers. Now, for some reason I was recently forced to upgrade my system to Ubuntu 20.04, and this created a new annoying problem in Kile 2.9.93:
Context:
I often have to use special characters, typically French accents such as à,è,è,î etc. Since I'm using a US keyboard layout on my laptop I'm efficiently and successfully using the KDE "compose key" feature to type those throughout my whole operating system: inputting Alt+'+e results in é, Alt+"+i results in ï and so on... I want Kile to automatically substitute these (virtually, indirectly inputted) special characters by their LaTex equivalent. This was working fine untill now.
Problem:
Since the last upgrade this doesn't work anymore. What is really weird is that if I disable the "substitute special characters" in Kile and input any of my compose-key combinations (say, Alt+'+e) then Kile does recognize the input and correctly displays é in the editor. So this bug appears to be caused by the interaction of the "substitute special characters" Kile feature with the "compose key" KDE option.
Has anyone encountered the same issue? And does anyone have any solution? Of course I can always manually input the LaTex command \'e for é and so on, but after 15 years of practice I doubt that my muscle memory would be too happy. Also, what a waste of time!

Monday begins the two-week Beanpot tournament and first-round pick Joel Farabee will play for Boston University.
BOSTON — Monday marks an annual tradition in what is arguably the biggest college hockey market because there are so many teams in New England. If it's the Monday after the last game of the NFL's season, it's the start of the Beanpot.
Joel Farabee has heard all about it, can't wait to be a part of one himself. His Boston University Terriers will face defending tournament champion Northeastern and Boston College will play Harvard. The following Monday, the two winning teams will play for the Beanpot title.
But…the Patriots are kind of killing it. They've been in half of the last 18 Super Bowls so a lot of eyeballs in Boston are elsewhere.
For freshmen like Farabee, they've gotten pretty used to what life in college is like by early February. The Beanpot is one of the things they look forward to and a carrot that Boston-based schools can dangle in front of recruits.
There's a lot more that goes into college life than just play on the ice, however. There is a shared commitment to work in the classroom and players having to live on their own, some of them for the first time in their lives.
With so much interest in the team's prospect group, the Courier-Post will check in on the promising young players each week. Here's the latest progress report with insights from Fred Pletsch, a long-time broadcaster who currently calls games on the Big Ten Network.
* all statistics through Friday, February 1.
The skinny: The Flyers may have found a late-round hit with Kalynuk who was very good his freshman season and even better this season. Wisconsin associate coach Mark Osiecki is known for churning out defensive prospects from the school like Justin Schultz, Jake Gardiner and Ryan McDonagh. At some point, one would figure, Kalynuk will turn pro and depending on what the Flyers do with this season and next season's roster, perhaps they ask him if he's ready to leave school after this season.
The skinny: It's a make-or-break season for Warren, whom the Flyers acquired via trade in the summer of 2017 when they shipped Nick Cousins and goalie Merrick Madsen to Arizona. Warren has never been a big scorer at the college level. If the Flyers do sign him after this season, he figures to be a bottom-six AHL option.
Pletsch's take: "The way that points should track, whether a kid is in junior or in college, there's usually an incremental increase each year and he had 17 as a freshman, regressed a bit, scored a career-high nine last year and this year he's stuck at a goal and two assists. I saw his game (last) Saturday at Madison Square Garden and they used him as the 13th forward, which is not really an indictment of his play because Mel (Pearson, the second-year head coach), he's got three or four guys that he has to make a quick assessment on like, 'OK, is this guy going tonight? Can we trust him? Has he brought his A-game?' Just the way Brendan Warren skates, he can play up and down the lineup.
The skinny: One of the best power forwards in the NCAA, Laczynski is not in the lineup this weekend for Ohio State after taking a big hit a couple weeks ago from Penn State's Blake Gober. The Flyers wanted Laczynski to go pro after last season, but Ohio State lost in the national semifinals to eventual Frozen Four winner Minnesota-Duluth and Laczynski wanted to go back one more time, feeling there was unfinished business. Many of his teammates did the same thing. He figures to go pro after this season.

Get Geno and every other dev on zone maybe get some devs from other servers too and just remake the entire server. Shut it down and everything and get a bunch of levels admins so you can use that new tileset as well. Classic, Era, and west already make enough money for you, and when you reboot zone to be actually good, youll have more players and theyll spend more money.
might as well make a zone 2020 thread or later because nothing will ever happen so just skip the next two years or more on threads like these.
Things like that take a lot of work and talent, if that was going to happen it would not be likely to see the benefits of it for a year minimum.
Hey, the curse is still in effect. Cool.

Q: Django - how to get needed data from multiple models event = Event.objects.filter(org=request.org).select_related("event_def", "location", "space")
and i get smthing like this
1st object
Almaty nights #some event_def
inside-->Sary Arka #location
inside location-->Hall 7 #place
inside place-->3 мая 1991 г. 0:00:00 #Event

2nd object
Almaty nights #some event_def
inside-->Omega #location
inside location-->Hall 2 #place
inside place-->6 мая 1991 г. 0:00:00 #Event
i need one event_def and inside multiple locations..etc
event model
org = models.ForeignKey(Organization)
event_def = ChainedForeignKey(EventDef,
    chained_field = "org",
    chained_model_field = "org",
    show_all = False,
    auto_choose = True
)
location = ChainedForeignKey(Location,
    chained_field = "org",
    chained_model_field = "org",
    show_all = False,
    auto_choose = True
)
space = ChainedForeignKey(Space,
    chained_field = "location",
    chained_model_field = "location",
    show_all = False,
    auto_choose = True
)
time = models.DateTimeField()
enabled = models.IntegerField(choices = ns.FULL_ENABLE_STATUSES, default = ns.ENABLED_STATUS)
objects = EnableDisableManager()

A: Are you saying that you want to be able to get multiple locations for an event? If you do, then your data model is wrong. For an event to have multiple locations, you want to do this:
class Event(models.Model):
    org = ...
    event_def = ...
    space = ...
    ...

class Location(models.Model):
    event = models.ForeignKey(Event, related_name='locations')
    ...

And then in your template you'll be able to do this:
{{ event }}
{% for location in event.locations %}
    {{ location }}
{% endfor %}

Q: Tried to clear trash and everything go removed! I found a command online to clear the trash for you because I wanted to clear a file without doing it throught GUI. The command is sudo rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/* . I called it and saw the folder on my right monitor disapear. I looked on the left monitor to see everything gone. I looked up recovery tools for ubuntu and found photorec . I used it and it said it recovered 200 files but none are there. EVERYTHING from my home directory is gone as well as Documents downloads, etc. How can I recover this? I had many important things I didn't back up.

A: *

*Run sudo testdisk in terminal.

*Unless you want a log file of the operations, choose No Log and press Enter.

*Hard drives are shown, it is possible to distinguish them with the size and the model name. Go on the hard drive you want to analyse and press Enter.

*You are asked for what is the partition table, for a normal PC it should be Intel. EFI GPT is for recent Apple Macs, Mac is for old PPC Mac. Choose the right one and press Enter.

*Choose Analyse and press Enter.

*Testdisk shows the current partitions, press Enter again to do a Quick Search

*Choose the partition that contains the files you want to recover and press the letter P. If you can't identify what is the right partition, you can try one. At any time your can come back to this menu by pressing the letter Q

*You are now in the directory tree (files and folders) of the partition! Each line starting with d letter is a folder, each line starting with a hyphen (-) is a file. Red lines are files/folders that have been deleted. You can move in files and folders with arrow keys on the keyboard, you can open a folder by pressing Enter and you can go to the parent folder by going on the double dot (..) and pressing Enter. The location where you are is always shown at the top near the word Directory. You can recover a file or a folder at any time by pressing C.

*The first time you will press C, you will be asked where to copy the files. You have to move up to the destination folder and press C. For that purpose, you need to know the path of that folder. Once done, testdisk confirms you if the operation succeeded of failed, completely or partially. If you copy a large amount of files, be patient and wait for the transfer even if nothing happens on the screen.

*You're done!

Buying a property is simultaneously exciting and daunting. As one of the biggest purchases you're likely to make, it's important to get it right - so it's no wonder that many home buyers find the process stressful.
This is why Admiral is on hand to offer a bit of useful advice and moral support. Here, we'll give you a rundown of some important things to look for when viewing a house or flat. Although you shouldn't expect perfection with all properties, it should help you in weighing up whether you'd like to put in an offer.
Are the transport links good? Are you near a main road? Do you have plenty of public transport options, and are they regular?
Is it on a floodplain? This could have an impact on your home insurance. You may also want to make contingency plans for if your home actually floods.
What condition is the render in? It's easy to overlook this one, but if the render's in poor shape, it could lead to damp problems indoors, and cost thousands to replace. Check for cracks on the outside wall. If you rap the render with your knuckle and it sounds hollow, that's a red flag.
Does the property have a garden? If so, how much work will it require? Which way does it face? Is there room if ever you want to extend, or put in a shed?
Will you be able to park? If there's no drive or garage, is there plenty of on-street parking? Will you need a resident permit?
Go from room to room, checking everything meticulously.
Where are the power sockets? Are there enough of them? Are they in easily accessible locations?
Where's the fuse box, and the gas and electricity meters? Are they also accessible? Can you get a smart meter installed?
Do you have mobile coverage? In which rooms do you get the strongest reception?
Is there broadband and TV in place? If not, can the property get decent broadband - ideally a fibre optic connection?
The plumbing is very important. Bear in mind that one of the things most commonly claimed for on home insurance is burst pipes.
Are the taps and shower up to scratch? Does water flow readily? Does it get hot quickly? Is the shower pressure strong enough?
Is the boiler in good condition? Hopefully you'll have a new boiler, and it's a reputable make. Boiler repair or replacement is an expensive business, and you certainly don't want it conking out in the dead of winter. Ask if the boiler has a service history.
If you're looking at buying a flat or apartment, there are a few other considerations to bear in mind.
What are the communal areas like? Are they kept in good condition? Do you have to share any outside areas?
In all this, it's really important to take your time, and consider everything carefully. Don't feel rushed by the estate agent or anyone who's showing you around, and don't be afraid to ask questions - no matter how basic (or how difficult) they may seem. If in doubt, take someone you trust to lend a second opinion.
And finally - good luck! You've got this.
Buying a house: what help is available?
