The first one is df1 has 485513 columns and 100 rows,
head(df1)

sample  cg1 cg2 cg3 cg4 cg5 cg6 cg7 cg8 cg9 cg10    cg11

and the second one has df2 84 rows and single column. I am aiming to get a subset of df1 using the values in the column from the df2 data frame.
head(df2)
    ID
    cg1
    cg2
    cg3
    cg4
    cg5

The values of df2 are the columns names of my interest from df1 and so I have tried the following one-liner in R.
> UP=(df1 %>% as.data.frame)[,df2$ID]

The Up data frame returns me with unmatched columns from my query df2
And it resulted in a data frame UP with 84 columns and 100 rows but none of the columns the above command line returned is  matching with the input query data frame df2.
It would be great if someone suggests me an alternative solution

A: Assuming df2 is a Series:
>>> df[df2.tolist()]

        cg1       cg2       cg3       cg4       cg5
0  33435.00  33436.00  33437.00  33438.00  33439.00
1      0.33      1.33      2.33      3.33      4.33
2      0.56      1.56      2.56      3.56      4.56
3     45.90     46.90     47.90     48.90     49.90
4     46.90     47.90     48.90     49.90     50.90
5     47.90     48.90     49.90     50.90     51.90
6     48.90     49.90     50.90     51.90     52.90
7     49.90     50.90     51.90     52.90     53.90
8     50.90     51.90     52.90     53.90     54.90
9     51.90     52.90     53.90     54.90     55.90

If it is a dataframe, then this should work:
df[df2.ID.tolist()]

A: In R, we can just do
df[as.character(df2$ID)]

assuming that 'ID' column is factor.  In case it is character class, it is more easier
df[df2$ID]

But if there are elements in 'ID' that are not in the column names of 'df', it may be better to use intersect
df[intersect(colnames(df), df2$ID)]

If the 'df' is a data.table, the usual way to subset columns will be to include the with =FALSE.  It is mentioned in ?data.table
with

By default with=TRUE and j is evaluated within the frame of x; column
  names can be used as variables.
When with=FALSE j is a character vector of column names, a numeric
  vector of column positions to select or of the form startcol:endcol,
  and the value returned is always a data.table. with=FALSE is often
  useful in data.table to select columns dynamically. Note that x[,
  cols, with=FALSE] is equivalent to x[, .SD, .SDcols=cols].

Therefore, the above commands would be
 df[, as.character(df2$ID), with = FALSE]

or
 df[, df2$ID, with = FALSE] #if 'ID' is already character class.

Or
 df[, intersect(colnames(df), df2$ID), with = FALSE]

2015 AL Central Standings Predictions
By Ted Schwerzler

4. Minnesota Twins
After finishing yet another year with 90 losses, it's in 2015 that the Twins break the spell. Thanks to some key offseason moves, as well as an organizational shift as a whole, the Twins look poised to take the next step in their rebuilding process.
During the offseason, the Twins lost very little of substance. Despite parting with some fringe players that provided minor league depth, Minnesota just got better. Key additions like Ervin Santana, and Torii Hunter should help elevate the Twins. A bounce back year for Ricky Nolasco, and the resurgence of a player like J.R. Graham could be just what the Twins need to compete in the competitive AL Central.
With some of the most exciting prospects set to make their debut in 2015, Minnesota has plenty to be excited about. Expect a record right around .500, with an outside chance to challenge late for a wild card berth.

Modern insurance company, Lemonade, uses Mixpanel to give every employee the insights they needed to understand their users better—helping them increase conversion rates across the board.
500% increase in policyholders
250% increase in quote-view-to-purchase rate
50% increase in Extra Coverage purchases
I've used Mixpanel at many companies before—it's the go-to market solution when you need user and product analytics.
Gil Sadis, Head of Product at Lemonade
Lemonade is not your average insurance company. With no brokers, no runarounds, and an experience powered by artificial intelligence, Lemonade offers consumers a new way to get affordable renters or home insurance, all from the comfort of the web or a mobile device.
When a company like Lemonade is upending how a longstanding industry does business, it has to learn from user behavior quickly and use that data effectively across the whole organization. That's where Mixpanel came in.
"Everything we do is based on data," said Gil Sadis, Head of Product at Lemonade. "Executives, product, marketing, analytics, customer service, and even underwriting teams learn how to use Mixpanel as soon as they join the company."
Lemonade's ultimate business goal is to increase its number of policyholders over time. With more than 100,00 policyholders and counting, the company must optimize partner and paid acquisition channels and educate its consumers on how Lemonade is different than the traditional insurance model. Then, the company quickly serves personalized quotes so that it's easy for a consumer to purchase a policy that's right for them.
By understanding its data, Lemonade knew it could drive better customer experiences and, ultimately, better business outcomes. Specifically, Lemonade wanted access to user behavior insights in Mixpanel to determine company strategy, to help allocate time and resources, and to ensure that teams can make data-informed decisions every step of the way.
With Mixpanel's suite of product analytics products, Lemonade has been able to measure and optimize high-performing acquisition channels, and also improve purchase funnels, making it easy for consumers to convert into loyal policyholders.
"We've had Mixpanel implemented since Day 0—even before our public launch, to test that our infrastructure was working," Gil said.
Through Explore and People profiles, the company has an end-to-end understanding of the user: "Because our product and marketing are omnichannel, it's really easy to see the entire journey a user takes—from acquisition to moving through one of our hundreds of funnels, to ultimately purchasing a policy."
Detecting anomalies in its data
"In our busy day-to-day, we're not looking at every funnel to make sure everything is working. But Mixpanel's anomaly detection feature tells us when there's a steep drop or unexpected uptick. This is exactly why we want everyone on Mixpanel. When everyone can access the tool, we quickly spot issues or notice the trends to capitalize on. "The difference between Mixpanel and other analytics tools is that Mixpanel's Machine Learning will notify you with what you should care about."
"In every product spec and with every feature we build, we have designated placeholder for Mixpanel. That way, we can determine the events we track and how this feature is helping us measure and work toward our larger business goals."
Fueling high growth and productivity
As newcomers to insurance, an industry that has operated without major innovation for the past 150 or more years, Lemonade has taken a design and customer-centric approach, and the strategy is paying off. In just one year, the company secured 70,000 policies, serving more than 100,000 policyholders, and counting. In fact, Lemonade's rate of acquiring new policyholders doubles every 10 weeks.
In addition to its focus on AI and mobile-first design, Lemonade credits much of this growth to the insights its teams are able to find and leverage with Mixpanel.
Ninety-five percent of its employees use Mixpanel, and their decisions are driven by insights they discover in the tool. "Part of onboarding a new employee at Lemonade is creating a Mixpanel account. We want people to engage with data, ask questions, and find the answers in data to make the right decisions," Gil said.
In fact, the team's reliance on Mixpanel has allowed the company to operate in an incredibly nimble and unconventional way: "At Lemonade, we only focus on the most important stuff, so the entire org can have the biggest impact. And while we have a very focused vision, we don't chase quarterly roadmaps, which many people find strange.
"However, Mixpanel helps us rigorously prioritize and balance where we innovate versus iterate, all based on what we learn from our user behavior data. Nearly everyone here uses Mixpanel, so we are all empowered to make informed decisions with data. For example, when we release a new innovative feature and measure it with Mixpanel, we see its direct impact on the business and how many people are interested in it.
"Then, we can compare that to the impact a more iterative product change has on our users. Since everything is measured in Mixpanel, we have clear evidence about what to care about and how to balance priorities."
From the company level down to the individual, trust in and use of the data saves time: "Mixpanel saves every product manager, at a minimum, half a day's work, every week. And with anomaly detection, the most important user priorities surface to us instantly."
Increasing purchase rates with anomaly detection
With the launch of Lemonade's Extra Coverage product, Mixpanel's machine learning helped the team uncover a key insight: new policyholders weren't fully completing the purchase flow. "To finalize a policy with Extra Coverage, a user has to submit their policy for review. At this stage, there's no need for payment, but Mixpanel helped us find that most people didn't submit it for review; they went through the entire flow and then suddenly stopped," Gil recounted.
"After anomaly detection notified us of the staggering drop-off rate, we dug deeper into Funnels to find that part of the problem was a browser-based technical issue. In addition, the call to action was not clear enough. It felt like you already submitted something, even though there was still one last step."
Tackling both the technical and the UX issues led to a dramatic improvement. The product team saw a 50% increase in overall conversion for Extra Coverage.
Improving the company's overall quote-view-to-purchase rate
In the beginning, Lemonade's new user acquisition rate wasn't always doubling every 10 weeks. "When we launched in 2016, we didn't know how our customers would behave. Lemonade is a completely new product and insurance buying experience. We did a lot of user testing, but we didn't really know how our acquisition funnel would perform," Gil remembered.
"Post-launch, we saw a huge drop in the funnel where users first see their quote view. We went straight to Mixpanel. It was easy not only to understand at what stage users dropped but also find and connect with the specific users to ask for qualitative feedback to improve the user experience."
"We made the top navigation really lean. It was a bit cluttered at first and introduced too much insurance talk—jargon like 'annual deductible.' We simplified everything so if you went through the experience all you would see in the quote view is the price and a CTA to buy. Then there was a small arrow ushering you to send you to the next section.
"We couldn't have tracked, measured or understood changes without Mixpanel. We tested the placement of features, order of different sections, and even the copy. Today, the user experience is a culmination of all those smaller Mixpanel-backed experiments."
Providing product analytics for marketers
In addition to product and UX improvements, Mixpanel has helped the Marketing team measure and optimize their paid acquisition channels and spend. "When we found that a lot of our paid channels came from mobile devices, we started to direct people to download our app and not go through the mobile web flow. However, we saw a steep decline.
"This prompted us to really improve our mobile web flow, instead, and drive app downloads later in the process. The improvements we made to the mobile web flow led to conversion rates that were hundreds of percent better than what we had before," Gil said.
"Moving forward they'll be utilizing Platform even more, especially in tying marketing and email campaign data to user behavior data. That way they can answer questions like: How did the campaign perform end-to-end? Did the email language convert? And, did these campaigns prompt users to take action within the product?"
By syncing multiple data sources to Mixpanel, all of Lemonade's teams can see the downstream effects and direct impact they have not only within the product but ultimately the business.
"The marketing team uses Mixpanel the same way as the rest of us. With Funnels, we measure performance per channel and at the campaign level." —Gil Sadis, Head of Product at Lemonade

Trump's Impeachment: What Happens Next?
Trump and Ukraines leader, Zelensky
Bryana Sirisute-Popejoy, Editor-In-Chief
On the 24th of September, 2019, Nancy Pelosi initiated an impeachment inquiry against Trump.
It all started with a single whistleblower, or someone who informs on a person/organization engaged in an illicit activity, who last August had warned that in a call, with Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, Trump urged the new government to launch a politically charged investigation against Joe Biden.
There were two articles of impeachment against Trump, abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. The allegation of abuse of power came from Trump's decision to withhold around 400 million dollars of approved military aid from Ukraine until the country would announce an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden, who was a rival to Trump at the start of the election season.
Trump had urged Zelensky to investigate both Biden, and his son, Hunter, who both worked for the Burisma Holdings, a Ukraine energy company. The allegation of obstruction of congress derived from Trump's "lack of cooperation with the house inquiry into the Ukraine decision. Trump responded to the articles by tweeting, "WITCH HUNT!"
Pelosi stated in a "Dear Colleague" memo, "The weak response to these hearings has been, 'Let the election decide.' That dangerous position only adds to the urgency of our action, because the President is jeopardizing the integrity of the 2020 elections." Pelosi states that letting the election decide would only add to the importance of their actions, due to Trump potentially doing something that may destroy it or cause it to fail. It can also allow Trump to potentially be re-elected.
(courtesy of BBC) Impeachment process example of what would happen.
Impeachment is a political process outlined in the Constitution. It essentially provides a pathway for elected lawmakers to remove presidents whose actions are considered to be such a "gross abuse of power," that elected officials don't want them to finish serving their term.
In the House of Representatives, there are currently 233 Democrats and 197 Republicans. If a simple majority of the House votes on the articles of impeachment and support it, then Trump is impeached and a trial begins in the Senate. If at least two-thirds of the nation's senators vote against Trump, he would be removed from office. However, a high bar in the Senate is currently controlled by Republicans, which could potentially lead to Trump staying in office or even Trump being removed. We have yet to see what occurs and what the House and what the Senate votes on and whether Trump will be removed from office or not.

Periscope turns any iPhone user into a live broadcaster
Periscope turns any iPhone use...
Launched today, the Periscope app for iPhone lets users live stream video to their followers
Not all that long ago, to call yourself a broadcaster you needed the blessing of station executives and a pretty smile. But communications technology is advancing so quickly that anybody with an internet connection can now share their perspective with the world. Twitter and Facebook brought this idea into the mainstream with text, photos and emails and now new players are arriving to take things in almost-scary new directions. Launched today, the Periscope live video app can turn anybody with an iPhone into a citizen journalist, whether they be streaming the scene of a disaster-zone or coming at you live from the breakfast table.
Twitter acquired Periscope in February, apparently looking to bring the nature of its frenzied, real-time text updates to life on screen. Available for iOS with Android on the way, the app allows users to stream vision from their smartphone camera to anybody and everybody using Twitter's distribution network.
You can sign in using your Twitter account and start to follow people, at which point their live streams will start to appear in a feed. A simple tap means you can see the world through the eye of your new friend's smartphone camera for as long as they choose to keep the stream running. At the same time, you can leave comments or tap the screen once to send the user an Instagram-like heart to show your appreciation.
You might also decide that what you're doing is a hell of a lot more interesting than the people you are following, in which case you can become the broadcaster. Part of this means choosing whether everybody sees the stream or just the people you chose to invite, and interacting with your viewers once they tune in.
Periscope's launch comes hot on the heels of the much-hyped live streaming app Meerkat, which also interfaces with Twitter. Released in mid-February, Meerkat will push out notifications to your Twitter followers if you start to broadcast live. As you stream, you can see how many people are watching and begin conversations with them.
So fundamentally, these two new apps serve the same purpose, giving smartphone users a platform to broadcast to anybody that will listen, but there is one notable difference. Where Meerkat lowers the curtain on your video the moment you end the stream, Periscope allows users to save videos so people can view them at a later date, or perhaps over and over again.
It's still early days for these apps, but they find themselves locked in an intriguing battle to take hold of the smartphone streaming throne, if there is to be such a thing. The fallout of this struggle may have enduring impacts on the way we consume content, beyond what your friend had for dinner.

Q: correctly scaling website to display in iphone I built a mobile website to fit 320px wide. In this thread (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4520064/mobile-website-for-iphone-problems) it throws out a useful piece of code to ensure that the iPhone displays it at the correct resolution, 320 wide. However, when I rotate the phone it doesn't automatically rescale to fit the wider viewport.
Any suggestions on how to fix that?

A: You can dynamically size your content using CSS media queries [w3.org].
To detect when a mobile phone is portrait or landscape, use orientation, for instance:
@media all and (orientation:landscape) {
    /* apply your css styles here */
}

You can also chain together specific scenarios, depending on how specific you want to be. For instance, if you wanted to style a portrait browser with a device width of 400px you would do the following:
@media all and (orientation:landscape) and (device-width:400px) {
    /* apply your css styles here */
}

*It should be noted that media queries should be at the very end of your CSS files, otherwise they won't properly overwrite your existing styles.

A: For some of my mobile projects, I have been using an event listener for the resize event.  When the device shifts from portrait/landscape (or the desktop window resized) the event will be called and you can manually set the height and width of your elements.
Here is an short example of what I have been using:
window.addEventListener('resize', resizetick, false);
<...>
function resizetick(e) {
    if(this.resizet)
        clearTimeout(this.resizet);
        resizet = setTimeout(resizecallback, 100);
}
<...>
function resizecallback() {
    <if new resolution then resize elements here>
}

The purpose behind the setTimeout/clearTimeout is to prevent multiple resizes.  Desktop browser events are fired continually while resizing and mobile users may shift the direction of their device inadvertently. I want to avoid resizing the content repeatedly.
You'll need to bind or otherwise handle resize() and resizecallback().  I don't have a project handy to cut and paste working code from - sorry. :\

A: Hard to tell with out seeing the site but I'm gonna take a stab: your explicitly saying the website width is 320px, when you rotate it the width of the phone isn't such. Your wrapper should be width: 100% so that the document rescales it self or you rescale the viewport.

More on AshKroft's Kamps:
Apparently, some think that the original article on the camps has been completely debunked. The point is that there are at most 20 prison cells in question, and that fact, while unfortunate, is not enough to get upset about. The camps issue is thought to be a red herring, and the real issue is still the indefinite detention of 'enemy combatants', especially when the determination of whether one is an 'enemy combatant' is made solely by the Bush Administration. It seems to me that this is true, but it is also important not to forget the issue of the camps. The actual physical construction of the camps is irrelevant. FEMA (the agency that can predict the future) and no doubt other organizations already have suitable camps, constructed for legitimate and semi-legitimate reasons. Once the precedent is set using Padilla and Hamdi (it is possible that the Padilla case is worse than the Hamdi case), and the mechanism is set up to allow the Administration to process 'enemy combatants' in bulk (and anyone who followed the Eichmann trial knows how important the institutional mechanics of repression are to this type of person), it would therefore be easy to 'scale' the 20 cells into 200, 2000, or 20,000. The critical point is the fact that the precedent of Padilla and Hamdi has been set, and as hardly anyone complained about it, it can be used against anyone, even an American citizen arrested in the United States.
The whole system being proposed by Ashcroft is actually the equivalent of pulling yourself up by your own bootstraps. His theory is that once he has determined that you are an 'enemy combatant', then all normal Constitutional protections immediately evaporate. However, presumably the protections can't evaporate before he makes that determination, i. e., in that legal millisecond before he makes his determination the courts still must be able to examine the Constitutional validity of the making of the determination, and in examining this, presumably have the right to consider all the facts of the case. The judge in the Hamdi case is alive to these issues. The whole 'enemy combatants' issue appears to be a rather transparent method to avoid human rights protections using the circular argument that the Constitution doesn't apply because it doesn't apply to 'enemy combatants', coupled with the dubious notion that you can become an 'enemy combatant' by your alleged involvement in the never-ending and ill-defined 'war on terror'.
The most interesting questions about Padilla have never been asked. He was detained in early May, but his detention only came to light with Ashcroft's announcement in early June. Since the Administration felt absolutely no qualms about Padilla's detention, and almost didn't bother to mention it until it needed a big distraction from the Coleen Rowley testimony, the whole issue of how many other detainees like Jose Padilla there are remains completely open. The camps may already be full!
Jonathan Turley, who seems to hold a monopoly in writing about these issues, points out that Ashcroft now wants to turbo-charge the secret court which interprets and enforces the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act to make its draconian powers apply to American citizens. This would presumably grant the government practically unlimited powers of investigation in order to obtain the information required to label the 'enemy combatants', as well as on anyone else the Administration would like to investigate without regard to that nasty Constitution (somewhere in hell, Richard Nixon must be laughing).
There is an interesting pattern here in the Administration's use of the media. We constantly hear about 'leaks' from the Bush Administration, and sometimes (e. g., Rumsfeld) even hear complaints about the 'leaks'. The 'leaks' and general use of the media appear to be the work of a master manipulator (Rove?):
the Padilla case was clearly set out for the American people, and the full implications of his treatment explained, allowing for his case to be used as a precedent for the indefinite detention without trial or legal representation for any American citizen labelled an 'enemy combatant';
the constant flow of warnings about imminent terror attacks, to continue the charade of the 'war on terror';
all the 'leaks' involving plans on Iraq, which may be a combination of trial balloons and misdirection, especially if the real goal of the Administration is also to capture Saudi oil fields;
all the obvious media manipulation concerning the anthrax attacks and Steven Hatfill, a patsy who is apparently to be used to distract public attention from the real issues of the case (with apparently another patsy in the wings to take over once the Hatfill investigation peters out).
But hey, if you don't want to worry about the AshKroft Kamps, then don't worry about the AshKroft Kamps. As long as you're white and quiet and don't criticize the government, you'll probably be fine.

When searching online for email addresses be aware that most Internet Service Providers do not give out their users email addresses, nor do they publish public email directories of their customers. This is, of course, a policy based on privacy protection issues.
Using a reliable email finder service, such as ours at theemailfinder.com, is one of the best ways to find an email address, if it is available for lookup. These services vary from total rip-offs that never produce anything, to full blown email finder services. A reliable service will offer personal help with your email finder searches and provide solid information about the email researching task you are trying to undertake. Services like ours have ferreted out every email database and resource in the entire world - and there are certainly a lot of them. Our service also gives access to in-house email finder databases that are unavailable elsewhere.
The main difficulty with trying to find someones email address is that there is no national, or international database, similar to a telephone directory, that contains every persons email address. The public databases that do exist are usually comprised of email addresses, and other personal information, that have been harvested from internet websites, social sites, dating sites and so forth. There are also opt-in databases and databases available from companies who sell their customer email lists.
Another source of email addresses are specialty databases maintained by various organizations. Government offices, schools and universities, businesses, organizations and special interest groups are just some of the places that provide public email databases. There are tons of these specialty email finder databases available online and our email finder service lists all of them. These are great databases to search if your subject is known to have a special affiliation or interest.

HR Privacy Blog
Focusing on regulatory and technological developments impacting the collection and use of employment-related personal information by multi-national companies
How to Screw Up Employee Monitoring
The UK newspaper Daily Telegraph has provided a brilliant example of how NOT to engage in monitoring employees when it covertly installed motion and heat sensors recently on the under side of the desks of employees. Arriving at work on January 11, journalists discovered the devices, googled the device's brand name, OccupEye, and found that they provided management with complete data about whether and when an employee is at their desk. In the face of the ensuing firestorm of protest, with HR reported to be "frantically rowing back on it," the company claimed that the sensors had been installed for only four weeks as an environmental measure to determine office usage and to lower heating, cooling and lighting costs at times of low usage. Four hours after BuzzFeed News contacted the Telegraph about the sensors, management announced that it was withdrawing them immediately.
So what did the Telegram do wrong? Not informing employees of the monitoring would be at the top of the list. Not consulting with union representatives would be another. Failing to inform employees about how the desk usage data would, and would not, be used and retained, would be a third. Put all these together and the result was that employees felt they were being spied on. What a shame, given the highly plausible objective management claims to have been pursuing!
Stories like this reverberate around the globe. In New Zealand, a rather naive tech journalist for Stuff.co.nz said that "while the Daily Telegraph has tried and failed at covertly monitoring its workers , it seems privacy laws would prevent any New Zealand employer from trying the same trick." Uh, isn't what the Telegram did a violation of UK data protection law? And since when did the existence of privacy laws "prevent" employers from violating them? In Australia, the Telegram debacle led to an analysis of inconsistencies in privacy protections for employees across various states and territories. The Australian Law Reform Commission (ALRC) called for uniform national laws on surveillance in the workplace in June 2014, but the federal government has not introduced the legislation that would be required.

Q: stop modal exceeding browser limits I have a modal that I maintain an aspect ration of 16:9. It works well on most screens but of some if the browser is considerable wider than the height the modal streches above and below the browser.
Here is a DEMO. If you make the output panel wider the red modal exeeds the limits.
I would like to have the modal stop getting bigger when it reaches the top of the browser. I haven't been able to find a way to do it.

    Aspect is kept.

CSS
.modal {
    position: absolute;
    height: 0px;
    width: 80%;
    padding-bottom: calc(100% * 9 / 16);
    background-color: #F00;
    margin: auto;
    top: 0;
    right: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
}

A: I changed your css to this -
.modal {
    position: absolute;
    height: 0px;
    width: 80vw; /* Use 80% of viewport width */
    height: 45vw; /* use 45% of viewport Width so 16:9 ratio */
    max-height: 100vh; /* limits the height to not exceed viewport height */
    background-color: #F00;
    margin: auto;
    top: 0;
    right: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
}

Fiddle
UPDATE: Fixed the 16:9 ratio bug on higher viewport size.In the earlier fiddle the width keeps on increasing when the height reached its limit. To resolve this, add this line of css -
max-width: calc(100vh * 16/9);

Updated Fiddle

A: The modal is actually not 16:9 in your example. If you change the padding-bottom to calc(80% * 9 / 16); it will be.
Aside from that I would try the vw/max-height solution proposed by Rohit.

A: Following is a solution that uses vmin to keep the modal from exceeding the boundaries of the window. An advantage of this solution is that it preserves the aspect ratio of your modal no matter how the window is resized.

.modal {
    position: relative;
    top: 50vh;
    transform: translateY(-50%);
    background-color: #F00;
    margin: auto;
    width: 90vmin;
    height: 63vmin;
}

    Aspect is kept.

Cerillion said Monday revenue for the first half is expected to total close to £8.4m, an increase of 12% year-on-year and in line with management expectations supported by an 'exceptionally high' level of software licence sales to existing customers.
EBITDA (earnings) in the first half is expected to be close to £1.4m from £1.5m in the previous year, following the impact of adverse currency movements.
On a constant currency basis, however, the company said it expects EBITDA approximately 13% ahead year-on-year.


Mix the flour, sugar, salt and yeast together in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre of the mix and add the water. Using your fingers, gradually mix all the dry ingredients into the water until it makes a dough.
Remove the dough from the bowl and put on a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for 5 minutes then put into a clean bowl, cover with a warm, damp cloth and leave somewhere warm to prove for about 40 minutes, or until doubled in size.
Once proved, remove from the bowl and knead for another minute or two.
Split the dough into 3 equal pieces and stretch the dough out so you have 3 strands that are approximately 90cm in length and flatten slightly with your fingertips.
Chop your chestnuts up into small pieces and slice your pancetta into 5cm long strips. Scatter chestnuts and pancetta down the centre of each strand of dough - saving some for the top of your plait - then fold each piece of dough over so the chestnuts and pancetta are inside the dough and loosely twist.
Place the strands next to each other in a line and join one end together. Then plait the dough and join at the other end.
Grease a large baking tray with olive oil and place the wooden carton from the camembert in the centre - leave the camembert in the fridge for now.
Carefully transfer the plait to the baking tray, placing it around the carton (leaving 1cm space between the carton and the dough) to make a wreath and press the ends together to join.
Cover with a warm, damp tea towel and leave to prove in a warm place for 15 minutes.
Once proved, place the leftover chestnuts, pancetta and springs of rosemary on top of the dough.
Remove the top layer of rind from the camembert, leaving a 1cm rim around the edge, and place in the carton on the tray with a sprig of rosemary in the middle.
Drizzle the dough with olive oil and place in a preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
Place in the centre of your table and eat whilst the camembert and bread are still warm.

Possibly the most striking of all vehicles Marino has driven was the amazing Nissan Delta Wing in which he competed at Le Mans last year.
Marino has shared a memory of the first time he drove the uniquely designed car on circuit.
"Being involved in the Nissan Delta Wing, which we took from 'concept' to racing at Le Mans in the space of about 3 months, was an amazing experience. The car had half the weight & half the amount of drag of a standard race car. With that it also uses half the tyres & half the fuel, factors which are hugely influential in endurance racing."

Prevalence of single and multiple HPV types in cervical carcinomas in Jakarta, Indonesia

Department of Pathological Anatomy
Objectives. Cervical cancer is the second most frequently occurring type of cancer in women worldwide. A persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) is a necessary causal factor in cervical carcinogenesis. The distribution of HPV types in populations has been studied worldwide. In Indonesia, however, few data are available describing the prevalence of HPV. Cervical carcinoma is the most common female cancer in Indonesia and causes high morbidity and mortality figures. With HPV vaccination studies in progress, it is important to map the HPV status of a population that would benefit greatly from future prevention programs. Methods. We tested 74 cervical cancer specimens from consecutive, newly diagnosed cervical cancer patients in the outpatient clinic of the Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta. After additional staining, the formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue samples were histologically classified. HPV presence and genotype distribution were determined by SPF10 polymerase chain reaction and line probe assay. Results. HPV DNA of 12 different HPV types was detected in 96% of the specimens. The three most common types were 16 (44%), 18 (39%) and 52 (14%). In 14% of the specimens, multiple HPV types were present. The multiple HPV types were significantly more prevalent among adenosquamous carcinomas in comparison with squamous cell carcinoma or adenocarcinoma (P = 0.014). Conclusion. Distribution of HPV types in Indonesia with a more prominent role for HPV 18 is slightly different from that in other parts of the world. The high amount of multiple HPV infections found in adenosquamous carcinomas may prompt further research on the pathogenesis of this type of cervical tumours.

N1 - Funding Information: This study has been made possible with financial support of the Dutch Cancer Foundation, Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
N2 - Objectives. Cervical cancer is the second most frequently occurring type of cancer in women worldwide. A persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) is a necessary causal factor in cervical carcinogenesis. The distribution of HPV types in populations has been studied worldwide. In Indonesia, however, few data are available describing the prevalence of HPV. Cervical carcinoma is the most common female cancer in Indonesia and causes high morbidity and mortality figures. With HPV vaccination studies in progress, it is important to map the HPV status of a population that would benefit greatly from future prevention programs. Methods. We tested 74 cervical cancer specimens from consecutive, newly diagnosed cervical cancer patients in the outpatient clinic of the Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta. After additional staining, the formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue samples were histologically classified. HPV presence and genotype distribution were determined by SPF10 polymerase chain reaction and line probe assay. Results. HPV DNA of 12 different HPV types was detected in 96% of the specimens. The three most common types were 16 (44%), 18 (39%) and 52 (14%). In 14% of the specimens, multiple HPV types were present. The multiple HPV types were significantly more prevalent among adenosquamous carcinomas in comparison with squamous cell carcinoma or adenocarcinoma (P = 0.014). Conclusion. Distribution of HPV types in Indonesia with a more prominent role for HPV 18 is slightly different from that in other parts of the world. The high amount of multiple HPV infections found in adenosquamous carcinomas may prompt further research on the pathogenesis of this type of cervical tumours.

Rear-facing car seats
Car seat guide
Swedish safety for your child's safety in the car
Child Safety Rear-Facing
Sweden is the country in the world known to protect children in traffic. The reasons for this are many, the rear-facing car seat, the Swedish Plus Test and the "Zero vision ", but perhaps most importantly is the combination of years of education where parents, politicians, researchers, and suppliers have worked hand in hand to save thousands of lives on the roads.
Let us start with the Swedish "Zero Vision" initiative, which is a big part of the high level of road safety that Sweden currently offers. The "Zero Vision" is a long-term goal that NO ONE should die or become seriously injured because of traffic accidents in Sweden. With this as a goal, the Swedish transport system has been designed on the basis of these premises. Road safety is therefore included in all processes affecting the road transport system. But there are several Swedish ways to achieve high road safety – the rear-facing car seat.
The rear-facing car seat was invented in Sweden and it all started in 1964 in Axkid's hometown, Gothenburg with Bertil Aldman professor at Chalmers University. He was inspired by space travels and how astronauts travelled backwards to deal with the forces that arise. He developed the first prototype of the rear-facing car seat with the aim to ensure that children are not exposed to life-threatening neck forces in a frontal collision.
Today, almost 60 years later in the same place, Gothenburg – Sweden, Axkid's developers and designers are constantly working to further refine the rear-facing car seat. With roots and DNA in Swedish engineering, safety is Axkid's top priority together with innovative solutions to extend the rear-facing travel. In combination with thousands of crash tests, we can be sure that the Swedish safety heritage is safe and that Axkid continues to deliver the safest car seats on the market.
But developing and designing a safe car seat takes time. A car seat consists of an incredible number of components where every small part is reviewed and needs to be of the highest quality. Therefore, it is very safe for us at Axkid to collaborate with the Swedish safety company Holmbergs Safety System. Holmbergs' goal is to save lives and minimize injuries in traffic and has provided the global car seat market with the safest fastening systems for over 50 years. With the highest quality, innovation, and long experience, we can trust that Holmbergs, as a premium supplier, with security always delivers maximum safety. Choosing a Swedish supplier of car seat harness also strengthens Axkid's Swedish heritage and focus on road safety and quality. Axkid wants to continue to set new standards for road safety in cars and be the obvious choice for safety-conscious parents.
So, for you and your child's safety – Choose Swedish safety <3

Saka reveals support from ´legends´ Henry and Pires along with Wenger ´regret´
Bukayo Saka revealed his gratitude for the regular support he receives from Arsenal "legends" Thierry Henry and Robert Pires.
The England winger has netted three goals in three games at the 2022 World Cup and is set to line up against France in a mouthwatering quarter-final on Saturday.
Henry and Pires lifted the trophy with Les Bleus 24 years ago, before going on to win two Premier League titles with Arsenal in 2002 and 2004 – forming part of the 'Invincibles' side that went through the entire campaign unbeaten in the latter.
Academy graduate Saka, who has been with the club since the age of seven, is benefitting from their wise words and guidance.
"We have so many French players, like Thierry and Robert Pires, that have been around the club and spoken to me and helped me," he said. "They still both support me to this day, so I'm grateful to them.
"Of course, on the pitch, they were magnificent, and they delivered silverware for Arsenal, so they'll definitely be legends – always."
Smile if your going to a World Cup Quarter Final@PhilFoden pic.twitter.com/LNozieMHvJ
— Bukayo Saka (@BukayoSaka87) December 4, 2022
Henry made contact with Saka following his missed penalty in England's Euro 2020 final defeat by Italy, a gesture that was greatly received by the 21-year-old.
"It showed a lot of character from him to get my number and reach out to me," he added. "After most Arsenal games, he reaches out to me. He's still so passionate about the club; he's an amazing person."
But despite his lengthy association with Arsenal, Saka is yet to speak with another key Frenchman in the Gunners' recent history, legendary former boss Arsene Wenger.
"One of my biggest regrets – things I haven't been able to do – was to meet Arsene Wenger," he revealed. "I know how much everyone at the club loves him, and I know what he did for the club."

Just Returned From The Emergency Vet.
"It's a bit of a long story, but I'm less than an hour out of this whole incident right now and I just need to let it out.
My grandmother's cat hadn't been able to urinate all day and was becoming increasingly uncomfortable and upset. We decided it probably constituted an emergency and rushed him to the 24-hour vet, where several hundred dollars' worth of tests revealed that he had a blocked urinary tract and his bladder was swollen to the point of rupturing, as well as his kidneys being badly damaged.
We were told that a $2,000 surgery might save him, but that he would have permanently compromised organ function and would need extra care, special food and regular vet visits for the rest of his (poorer quality) life. My grandmother lives off Social Security, and my mother is a school teacher; I knew as soon as the vet started talking what the outcome was going to end up being. We deliberated for a while, my mother and grandmother tried every way they could think of to rearrange and reallocate money, but there was no way we could afford it.
Neither my mom nor grandma could handle staying with him, but I couldn't let him go all alone, scared and in pain. I stayed by his side, scratching in his favorite spot under his chin and stroking his head while they dosed him. He purred, stretched out his front paws and kneaded the sleeve of my hoodie as he gradually fell asleep.
As we stood in the lobby filling out the last of the paperwork, a family ran in with a bloodied mess of a dog wrapped in an old t-shirt. Their neighbor's dog had escaped and completely torn theirs apart. I watched as the vets took the dog into the back, leaving its tearful owners behind. A woman came in from the back and explained to the family that their dog was in critical condition and it would be very expensive to save it. As they looked over the pricing sheet, the wife broke down in sobs and the husband shook his head in resignation. The whole lobby was deathly quiet as we shared in this family's pain.
Then, a young couple (seriously no more than 25 years old) who had just come out of the back with a tiny puppy stood up, walked to the counter, and said "We'd like to help them. How much can we pay to get their dog triaged and start its treatment?". And then, the guy got out his credit card and paid to help save this family's dog. The young woman put her arm around the dog's sobbing owner and comforted her.
Fellow Redditors, I have never seen such an incredible act of selflessness and compassion. This young couple had just paid who knows how much to have their own pet treated. They had never seen these people before. But they unhesitatingly gave as much as they could to prevent a family from being broken. For the first time in a long time, I felt totally awed by the humanity of total strangers.
Recently one of our dogs was horribly injured by another animal. We too were faced with a decision and a budget. We told the vet that we could only afford a certain amount and I was sure that we'd receive the phone call saying that the bill would be more. I know for a fact that what they did for our family member was far more than what we could afford, but when the call came they said he was out of surgery and they thought there was a really good chance he'd heal, even though they'd never before treated the kind of wounds he had. I was terrified to pick him up wondering how I was gong to pay that bill. When I got there the bill was for almost exactly what I'd said I could afford plus tax. After 8 weeks, he's just about back to his old self. KIndness comes in all forms.
What a beautiful act of kindness and love for a fellow human being, though a stranger. Thank you for sharing this story. What a blessing! I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your grandmother's cat. i thought it was a special act of love for you to stay with the frightened cat as he went to sleep. I'm sure that could not have been easy to do.
Aw!!! is all I can say. What a special couple!!
I am in tears reading this. Too many times I have held and comforted one of my cats when it was time for them to go. The fact that you were right there, holding and comforting Rosco was a sweet act of incredible kindness. He knew right until he fell asleep that he was loved and cared for, and what better way to go?
I am always so touched by stories like these, and especially when others can help out during such a stressful time. Please know how important this post is; it reminds us to where we can and as we can.
Please also know that where Rosco is now, he is grateful to you and is happy, comfortable, peaceful; you will see him again.

Looking at where basketball, particularly NBA basketball, was in 2010 likely would not have given you much insight into what the sport would look like at the turn of the following decade. Sure, LeBron James was the reigning MVP, with three more to follow. Yes, the Spurs would go on to make the playoffs in every year of the 2010s, just as they had in the aughts. The Lakers are, of course, one of the best teams in the league. And, of course, the Kings, Knicks and Warriors are three of the worst teams in the NBA.
But as in life, basketball constantly shows its capacity for change, no matter the source of inspiration nor drive. What began with the Celtics shooing LeBron off the floor in the Eastern Conference Semifinals and into the Greenwich Boys & Girls Club for the kickoff of the player empowerment movement has resulted in, among innumerable other things, Ray Allen's greatest betrayal, the assembly of perhaps the greatest team in NBA history and definitely the greatest mercenary season from a single player ever.
It would be impossible to remember everything, but here are a few notes from each year, both league-related and otherwise.

So, yes: you are reading a sports-adjacent blog right now, at this very second. Good for you for spending your time here and not elsewhere! There are desperately few even decent places to be left on the internet, and soon, given we are collectively being pushed all the way into technocratic fascism against our will, there will only be three websites total, all of them having provided enough funding for their governors to shoot themselves into space and away from our dying planet. Killer!
In being here, though, there is a key thing to remember: namely, that without the blogs, blog-esque and blog-adjacent sites that came before us, we would not exist.
As a blog that barely registers as an SEO dog whistle on its best days, it behooves us to mention the very good and great ones in tribute, just so you know where we're coming from, even if it isn't necessarily where we're going. Given that private equity hawks continue to drop good things to their deaths, it also stands to reason that, though assuredly limited in scope, this is a place to remember some blogs.

Have you ever noticed that the snare drum never quite hits usually in "Sunshine Of Your Love"? Maybe you have; Ginger Baker never would have assumed that you would expect something like that, given the circumstances. Circumstance is everything, and what you don't notice can alternately end up killing you, or being the very reason you feel love.
Baker, best known as the drummer of Cream, passed away on Sunday at the age of 80. Anger and belligerence are as key to his story as they are to those of his dairy bandmates', and Baker was perhaps the most prominent person that enabled the expansion of what we thought a rock trio[1] could be. Getting Jack Bruce to run through a fuzz box helped, sure; throwing Ginger Baker as many drums and cymbals as he could handle, though, was the key revelation to tying the British blues rock push together.

You have options. Before the start of every new sporting season, dedicated fans take a step back to join casual onlookers just catching up in assessing offseason developments, visualizing the year ahead, prognosticating to pass the time. There are bland press releases to read, rehearsed transcripts to read into, social media posts to pick apart. Media sources both official and otherwise get paid to distill this pile of corporate-backed bollocks into coherent season previews with scripted narratives to follow for your benefit so you can regurgitate it to uninterested parties as the smartest, least likable person in the room when the topic of conversation finally comes around. I know what these previews will say. So do you. This is the ritual.
But there are alternatives. That's why you're here.

Another year down. Another year older, but perhaps none the wiser? Maybe that decision doesn't belong to you alone. It felt like nothing did, most of the time. From Tide Pods to the Philly Special to countless acts of cruelty and many more of plain senselessness to the continued existence of the Golden State Warriors to having 12 years left to stop the sun to inexplicable blue lights over Astoria, everything that happened felt like it was going to happen anyway, sooner or later, and we were all left to bear it as best we could. Same as it ever was, but different.
Still: we would be equally bereft of sense to assume that darkness would drive out darkness. You may have heard that only light can do that. For all the bad and rot everywhere, urban, suburban and rural, at home and abroad, there were the moments in between that made everything we experience every day that kept us together, however briefly. If we experienced them together? All the better.

The first time I internalized Aretha Franklin – not "heard," because as an American growing up post-1966, you never hear her for the first time – I was playing a video game against my oldest, not older, brother, back in the relatively nascent console days when video game producers didn't know what to do other than to license actual music to fill in gaps in gameplay.
Specifically, the first time I internalized Aretha Franklin, who passed away on Thursday at the age of 76, was during one of the marathon sessions of NFL GameDay 2000 that yours truly used to play against his older, wiser sibling. To give you an idea of how the games themselves usually went, I relied on the fake punt-pass as my go-to fourth down play, and it never worked, and the most memorable game we ever played rests on that guy using that play, my play, to beat me in the final seconds of a game in which I was already ahead. He kept a running log of this particular series, but that is neither here nor there. It's in Chicago, if I had to guess.

PHOENIX CONTACT | What is redundancy?
Even brief failure of the 24 V supply can cause serious damage. You should therefore design a redundant power supply solution.
In the event that one of the power supply units fails, the other takes over supplying the load.
Redundancy refers to a state of overlap or overflow. This means that there is at least one additional power supply unit present.
"n+1" redundancy: 3 power supply units each work with a nominal current of 10 A to supply a total of 20 A.
"1+1" redundancy: 2 modules with 20 A each are connected in parallel on the output side in order to supply a 20 A load.
In the event of an internal device fault or failure, the other device automatically takes over the entire power supply.
Diodes or redundancy modules decouple the power supply units connected in parallel. Only then, in the event of a short circuit of one of the power supply units, does the other device continue to supply the full power. The load is now supplied even in the event of a short circuit in the supply lines.

The process begins with Rhodes melting beeswax and resin in a slow cooker. She pours this melted medium into tins of dry pigment that are then kept warm on a pancake griddle. This becomes her pallet. She paints on a birch panel and fuses each layer with a heat gun or torch…there are usually many layers. After several years of working in this art form, she knows hot wax has a mind of its own and she learns something new every day.

Promises of things to come
Posted on March 15, 2012 by marcmarrs
To me "The Godfather" is like a buffet, something for everyone and it tastes great. I can't watch that film without eating. It would be a sacrilege to not have Italian food while watching this first rate film. It is a movie which promotes a zesty atmosphere, so much so that I threw an Italian Gangster potluck party complete with a paper mache horse's head on my bed. The flyer suggested "Lavish Attire" and asked the participants to bring Italian cuisine. It was a smash.
The Godfather is the kind of movie that I enjoy watching every couple of years. It is timeless and it tells a story that says "Without one's family life is worthless." That's loyalty for you. "My Three Sons."
"I believe in America." It is the first line of one of the greatest films in the history of American cinema. "The Godfather" released in the spring of 1972 was eagerly anticipated. No one was quite sure what Marlon Brando would look like in the role of the Don. He had never played an Italian before on film. The book, a best-seller by Mario Puzo was extremely popular at the time and everyone had their own idea on who should play the characters.
Finding out, I was surprised and disappointed. What did I know? With the exception of Brando, who were these people? For some weird reason I had envisioned a young Tony Curtis type for the role of Michael. Who in the hell was Al Pacino? I was suspicious. All my fears were assuaged after sitting down during the first 20 minutes.
The characters are introduced in the beginning at a garden party. It is the last Saturday in September of 1945 and America is ablaze with hope. The other two Godfather films introduce their main characters in similar fashion; at the beginning at a party. It is his daughter Connie's wedding day and according to tradition people line up to ask favors from the mighty. So the Don spends a good part of that day granting wishes in his office. Can't he just get a day off? He's looking for peace, but life is just one damn thing after another. "If you don't mind, I'd like to go to my daughter's Wedding."
My favorite part of the movie was Michael and Kay leaving the film :"The Bells of St. Mary's" and Michael realising that his father had been shot. The camera follows Kay's reaction before Michael knows. it's much as though JFK is coming from behind the Stemonds Freeway sign. At that moment the film changes its tone. Michael is now involved and that involvement will lead him to rule. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Or does it? Watch the movie and find out and if you already know, watch it anyway. It's a movie you can't refuse.

The Fourier transform is fundamental to seismic data analysis. It applies to almost all stages of processing. A seismic trace represents a seismic wavefield recorded at a receiver location. The digital form of a seismic trace is a time series which can be completely described as a discrete sum of a number of sinusoids – each with a unique peak amplitude, frequency, and a phase-lag (relative alignment). The analysis of a seismic trace into its sinusoidal components is achieved by the forward Fourier transform. Conversely, the synthesis of a seismic trace from the individual sinusoidal components is achieved by the inverse Fourier transform. A brief mathematical review of the Fourier transform is given in Appendix A.
Seismic data processing algorithms often can be described or implemented more simply in the frequency domain than in the time domain. In Section 1.1, the one-dimensional (1-D) Fourier transform is introduced and some basic properties of time series in both time and frequency domains are described. Many of the processing techniques – single- and multichannel, involve an operand (seismic trace) and an operator (filter). A simple application of Fourier analysis is in the design of zero-phase frequency filters, typically in the form of band-pass filtering.
The two-dimensional (2-D) Fourier transform (Section 1.2) is a way to decompose a seismic wavefield, such as a common-shot gather, into its plane-wave components, each with a certain frequency propagating at a certain angle from the vertical. Therefore, the 2-D Fourier transform can describe processes like migration and frequency-wavenumber (f-k) filtering. A common application of f-k filtering is the rejection of coherent linear noise by dip filtering, and attenuation of multiples based on velocity discrimination between primaries and multiples in the f-k domain (Section 6.2).

Q: Getting segmentation fault in linux but not in Windows I'm trying to protect a program from invalid inputs and I've made a function that is not working in Linux but, apparently, works fine in Windows. I receive a String and the program is supposed to accept only Strings that have 3 " " and the last 3 values are digits. E.g "Mike 1 1 1".
The solution I came up with was
int verify(char string[]){
    int n = 0;
    char* aux = strtok(string, " ");
    while((aux=strtok(NULL, " "))!=NULL){
        if(isdigit(aux[0])==0)break;
        n++;
    }
    return n;
}

If n is 3 I accept the input. I know that this solution won't be correct for an input like "Mike 1 1a 1" but for now that won't be important. I really wanted to know why this doesn't work in Linux and how can I test this in a way that will work.

Thomas Rhett's "Craving You" might still be hovering near the top of Billboard's Country chart, but the Nashville native isn't looking back. Friday, Rhett released his next single, "Unforgettable." Both songs will appear on Rhett's third studio album, which is scheduled for release on Sept 8th.
"Unforgettable" examines each day of a new relationship through the perspective of the relationship as time goes on. It's representative of all of the changes in Rhett's own life, which the singer discussed within an interview with Rolling Stone Country in March.
"I would say [Life Changes] completely sums up the journey of my life right now," Rhett said. "You think you have it all figured out and all of a sudden you wake up and you're having a baby. So many things are changing as far as going from a [show] opener to a headliner – there are a lot of firsts for us this year – and there's a couple of songs on the album that sum it up, but I would say that one line represents life as a whole for me right now."
"Unforgettable" was written by Rhett, with Jesse Frasure (co-writer of Jon Pardi's "Dirt on My Boots"), Ashley Gorley and Shane McAnally (both of whom co-wrote Sam Hunt's current Number One, "Body Like a Back Road"). Rhett's second album Tangled Up was certified Platinum in September 2016, led by the triple-Platinum single "Die a happy Man."
Rhett continues his summer tour through the end of July along with guests Walker Hayes, Old Dominion and Dan & Shay. He returns mid-August with dates on both the East and West Coasts before wrapping up with five UK tour dates in November.
