Although we use an iOS device to test the mobile SSO feature, the wizard also configures mobile SSO for Android and Windows 10 devices.
This exercise helps you to configure the Salesforce application with the identity provider metadata and integrate VMware Identity Manager to a trial Salesforce account.
In addition, you need to create a trial Salesforce developer account. To register, you need a valid email address to receive your Salesforce password.
A device profile allows you to manage devices with specific settings and rules. You can enforce corporate rules and procedures when device profiles are combined with compliance policies.
The mobile SSO feature creates default device profiles. You must update the iOS device profile to include the Salesforce application identifier.
Click the iOS device profile.
In the Applications section, enter com.salesforce.chatter.
After a device profile has been created and configured, you can assign the profile to a smart group.
This exercise helps you to assign a Workspace ONE UEM device profile to a smart group.
In Workspace ONE UEM Console, select Devices.
Click the Assigned Groups text box to open the drop-down menu.
Name – Enter a name of your choice for the smart group. This exercise uses iOS Smart Group.
Platform and Operating System – From the drop-down menus, select the following options: Apple iOS, Greater Than or Equal To, iOS 10.2.0.
Now that you have completed assigning a Workspace ONE UEM device profile to the iOS smart group, you are ready to Configure the SAML Metadata Settings.
Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is an open standard for SSO across multiple services. Using SAML authentication, a user logs in to an environment only once per web browser session to access all systems.
This exercise helps you configure the SAML metadata settings.
Export the identity provider SAML metadata from Workspace ONE UEM. The metadata is used to configure the Salesforce application.
Right-click Identity Provider (IdP) metadata, and select Save Link As.
Save the metadata file in an accessible location.
In a web browser, navigate to https://login.salesforce.com.
Enter your Salesforce user name.
In the search panel on the left, enter single to locate SSO settings.
Select SAML Enabled to enable SSO using SAML.
Click New from Metadata File.
Click Choose File, and select the metadata file saved in the previous exercise.
Click Create to populate the SAML SSO settings.
Specify how the identity provider identifies the Salesforce user, and complete the metadata download.
Select Assertion contains the Federation ID from the User object.
After you have downloaded the SAML metadata file, you need to register your domain in Salesforce.
Under Choose Your Domain Name, enter a domain name in the text box.
To confirm that your domain name is not being used, click Check Availability.
It can take a few minutes for Salesforce to complete the process. When the domain is registered, you receive an email. After you receive the email, you can edit the authentication configuration in My Domain.
Next to Authentication Configuration, click Edit.
To enable the authentication service, select your Identity Manager user name in the Authentication Service section.
The federation ID in Salesforce is a unique user name that can be shared across multiple applications. The federation ID allows administrators to choose a user name format to pass to Salesforce from their user directory for SSO. The user name format is often an attribute, such as the user's email address.
In the search box on the left, enter users.
Next to the user name used for the trial account, select the check box and click Edit.
In the Single Sign-On Information section, enter the federation ID as the UPN of the AD user account. For example, testuser@company.com.
You now add the Salesforce application to the Catalog and configure the application for SSO. To add a web application to Workspace ONE UEM Console, you must be logged in as a domain administrator.
In the Search text box, enter Salesforce.
Select Salesforce from the list. The remaining options are auto-filled.
Open the previously saved metadata file (see Update the SAML Settings in Salesforce) using Notepad or TextEdit.
Copy the data, and paste it into the URL/XML text box.
The Salesforce application has been added to the Catalog and configured for SSO.
You are now ready to assign users to the Salesforce application.
Click the Salesforce icon from the application list.
Enter a user name in the search field.
Select Automatic from the drop-down menu.
Click Save to complete the assignment process.
In this section, log in to a web browser and launch the Workspace ONE user portal.
From your device, launch Google Chrome by double-clicking the icon.
Enter the credentials for a user entitled to the Salesforce application.
Enter the user name, for example testuser.
Enter the password, for example VMware1!.
In this section, access the Salesforce application from the Workspace ONE user portal to confirm that SSO is correctly configured.
In the Workspace ONE user portal, find the Salesforce application and click Open.
If SSO is configured correctly, the Salesforce application starts without prompting for a user name and password.
When you install a Workspace Services profile, Workspace ONE UEM pushes Salesforce to your iOS device. In this exercise, you log in to your enrolled iOS device and start Salesforce. If SSO is configured correctly, the Salesforce application starts without prompting for a user name and password.
On your iOS device, tap the Salesforce application.
Confirm redirection to Workspace ONE.
Validate SSO. Authentication completes, and the application starts without requiring a user name and password.
Now that you have tested the Salesforce SSO configuration on your mobile device, the Salesforce Mobile Single Sign-On section is complete.

Q: RxJava Take operator is not working What I want to achieve: I am loading data from some web service in recyclerView. I want to load first 10 data and display it in recyclerView. When User scrolls, call web service for another 10 data to display it.
What I have done: For above aim, I'm using .take operator of RxJava. But It seems not working for me or else I'm doing some mistake.
What issue I'm having: I'm getting all the data instead of first 5 data. There might be something that I'm missing it.
My code is like below.
MainActivity.java
    public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    private final String TAG = MainActivity.class.getSimpleName();

    private RecyclerView recyclerView;
    private ProgressDialog mProgressDialog;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        recyclerView = findViewById(R.id.recyclerView);
        recyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this));

        setupProgressDialog();

        ApiEndPoints apiEndPoints = ApiClient.getClient().create(ApiEndPoints.class);

        mProgressDialog.show();

        apiEndPoints.fetchAllUsers()
                .take(5)
                .subscribeOn(Schedulers.io()) //Background Thread
                .observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread()) //UI Thread
                .subscribe(new Observer<List<Pojo>>() {
                               @Override
                               public void onSubscribe(Disposable d) {

                               }

                               @Override
                               public void onNext(List<Pojo> pojoList) {

                                   recyclerView.setAdapter(new RVAdapter(pojoList));

                                   Log.e(TAG, "List Size: " + pojoList.size());
                               }

                               @Override
                               public void onError(Throwable e) {

                               }

                               @Override
                               public void onComplete() {
                                   mProgressDialog.dismiss();
                               }
                           }
                );
    }

    private void setupProgressDialog() {
        mProgressDialog = new ProgressDialog(this);
        mProgressDialog.setMessage("Loading . . . ");
        mProgressDialog.setIndeterminate(true);
        mProgressDialog.setCancelable(false);
    }
}

Ask me if anything required. Thanks in advance.

A: If you use take operator, It will emit first 5 items and than onCompleted function will trigger. So you need re observable source.
I found example application on github which is using rxjava for load more operation.

A: You receive a list, which is considered as an object. You need to iterate them, take first 5 and then get them back as a list:
apiEndPoints.fetchAllUsers()
            // iterate users
            .concatMap(new Func1<List<Pojo>, Observable<Pojo>>() {
                @Override
                public Observable<Pojo> call(List<Pojo> pojos) {
                    return Observable.from(pojos);
                }
            })
            // take 5 from iteration
            .take(5)
            // put all 5 users back to a list
            .toList()
            .subscribeOn(Schedulers.io()) //Background Thread
            .observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread()) //UI Thread

If you had an array (Pojos[] users) take() operator should work without iteration.

A valuable garden variety, tall and neat, flowering later than mid-season. Both parents, which we should dearly love to obtain, were weel-kent and highly regarded: 'Dinkie' is our closest link. How fortunate that the wee Poet, N. hellenicus, bestows its perfect roundness to its progeny and 'Will Scarlett' passes on its vigour and vibrant cup-colouring rather than its wayward, wingy perianth. 'Dinkie''s pollen parent, 'Crimson Braid', inherited these fine features and passed them on, but dropped the tendency for perianth segments to recurve in mature flowers. As Calvert puts it in his list of Choice New Daffodils (1929), "A well-formed flower of smooth texture of good quality of a distinct and beautiful shade of greenery-yellow throughout…". In his Handbook (1934), Bowles describes 'Dinkie''s texture as "wax-like", and having "a rimmed cup that any poeticus could be proud of".

NHL Game Recap - Red Wings v Maple Leafs
Dylan Larkin scores in OT, Red Wings edge Maple Leafs 5-4
Suspended D Voynov signs with KHL team
Detroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin (71) reacts after scoring in overtime NHL against the Toronto Maple Leafs in Toronto on Thursday, Dec. 6, 2018. (Nathan Denette/The Canadian Press via AP)
TORONTO (AP) Maple Leafs coach Mike Babcock expected William Nylander to be "the freshest guy in hockey" on Thursday night.
That was probably asking too much of a player making his season debut with exactly zero practice time since ending a prolonged contract impasse with Toronto just last weekend.
The rest of Babcock's team, which eventually showed signs life after a poor opening 40 minutes, didn't really have an excuse.
Dylan Larkin scored at 2:48 of overtime and the Detroit Red Wings survived a blown three-goal lead in the third period to beat the Maple Leafs 5-4 and snap Toronto's five-game winning streak.
"They were just better than us," Babcock said. "They played harder."
Nylander agreed to a six-year, $45 million deal minutes before Saturday's deadline for the restricted free agent to be eligible to play in the NHL this season. He flew to Toronto on Sunday from Sweden, where he had been practicing with a junior team, twice went through drills with a Leafs assistant coach and took part in Thursday's brief morning skate. Coming off consecutive 61-point seasons, the 22-year-old finished with 12 minutes, 29 seconds of ice time, but didn't see any action in the final 14:35.
"It has nothing to do with Willy, it has to do with me and trying to win the game," Babcock said of the benching. "Any time you've missed that amount of hockey, it's going to be hard."
Nylander, who got a mostly warm reception when he stepped on the ice for his first shift, started on a line with Auston Matthews and Patrick Marleau before sitting.
"It felt OK," Nylander said. "There's a lot of differences from practicing by yourself."
After the Leafs stormed back with three goals in under nine minutes in the third to tie it, Larkin moved in on a breakaway in the extra period off a pass over the top from Gustav Nyquist, and beat Garret Sparks on a deke.
"We were better than them for two periods," Detroit head coach Jeff Blashill said. "Our guys battled extremely hard and (I'm) proud of the way that they played."
Nyquist finished a goal and two assists. Mike Green had a goal and an assist, Jonathan Ericsson and Luke Glendening also scored, Larkin had an assist and former Maple Leafs goalie Jonathan Bernier stopped 27 shots.
Andreas Johnsson and Kasperi Kapanen had a goal and an assist each for Toronto. John Tavares and Zach Hyman also scored, and Sparks made 27 saves.
Tavares made it 4-2 when he ripped his 18th past Bernier off the rush at 2:38 of the third. Hyman added his seventh on a rebound at 8:50, and Johnsson tied it with his sixth with 12:24 to go.
NOTES: Members of the Humbolt Broncos and their families were in attendance. ... Detroit defenseman Niklas Kronwall played his 900th NHL game.
Red Wings: Host New York Islanders on Saturday night.
Maple Leafs: At Boston on Saturday night.

In Memory of Mike Torres
The gentlemen of Tucson MSBL extend our warmest regards to the families and friends of Michael Torres, who passed away this weekend. Michael was a father, friend, husband, officer and teammate who played high school baseball at Salpointe Catholic, college ball at Grand Canyon University, and then later with Tucson MSBL.
Mike worked for Tucson Police Department and then later transferred to the Marana Police Department.
Mike was a dependable and uncanny force on the mound. He made us all better players, and had an attitude that was infectious. He was an iron man on game day, I would often witness him pitch nine innings and then later catch nine for a different team. He was that kind of guy, Mike, you will be missed.
A public viewing is scheduled for Thursday, May 9 from 1700-2000 (5:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m.) at Corpus Christi Church, located at 300 N. Tanque Verde Loop.
The funeral will be held at the same location on Friday, May 10 starting at 1000. Michael will be laid to rest at Holy Hope Cemetery at 3555 N. Oracle Road following the funeral.

In Memory of Kirk Jacobs, #23
It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of our league president, teammate and friend, Kirk Jacobs, this past Saturday, March 23, 2019.
Kirk loved two things more than anything, his family and baseball. His passion for the game was on display in every aspect of life and we will forever be grateful for his work as president the past four-plus years. He was a leader on several teams including the Orioles, Toads, Twins, and Astros, but his most important contributions came as league president. Since taking over in 2015, the league has experienced unprecedented growth and financial stability under his leadership, and it was his love of the game that attracted so many people to wanting to be a part of it.
He had names for his gloves and would eat, sleep and breathe our national pastime. He was a true leader both on and off the field. We miss you more than you can imagine KJ. Keep swinging for the fences.
Welcome to Tucson Baseball!

The influence of prepregnancy body mass index on labor complications.
BACKGROUND: To investigate the influence of Body Mass Index on the incidence of labor complications in a population of women with a normal pregnancy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: From a local database, information on maternal weight and height was extracted concerning 4258 women who had an uncomplicated pregnancy. After calculation and stratification with respect to Body Mass Index, this was retrospectively related to labor interventions and complications. RESULTS: High Body Mass Index was related to more oxytocin infusion and early amniotomy, but not to vacuum extraction or cesarean section. Primary inertia and, to a minor degree, cephalopelvic disproportion and secondary inertia were seen more often in women with high Body Mass Index. CONCLUSIONS: Overweight (25.0<=BMI<30.0) and obesity (BMI>=30.0) are only weak predictors of labor complications, given a normal pregnancy. However, the heavy use of labor augmentation indicates that obese women should not be recommended to give birth in an ABC-clinic or at home.

Legalized marijuana, the growing opioid crisis, technology innovation, research and education – these are some of the hottest issues in health and health care management to watch for in 2018.
Massage Therapy Canada's editorial advisory board members offer their take on these trends and their impact on the massage therapy profession at a recent conference call.
Following are the highlights of the discussion.
One of the biggest public health issues of 2017 is the opioid crisis, which claims 8.8 lives per 100,000 population, according to data from the federal government. The epidemic is expected to continue into 2018 even as public health organizations, various health-care associations and other stakeholder groups look for meaningful ways to help alleviate this national crisis.
There is opportunity for the massage therapy profession to engage in finding solutions to the crisis, particularly as it relates to chronic pain, says Donelda Gowan-Moody, a registered massage therapist from Saskatchewan and research chair at the Massage Therapist Association of Saskatchewan.
"I had a lot of opportunities to engage with pain science researchers and there's a tremendous amount of interest in massage therapy as a non-pharmacological intervention for chronic pain," Gowan-Moody says.
The trend toward non-pharmacological interventions for managing pain provides an opportunity for manual therapists, including massage therapists, to have a seat at the table in developing policies aimed at reducing people's dependence on powerful opioids to manage their pain.
Toronto-based RMT Jason White agrees practitioners need to have a better understanding when it comes to patients suffering from chronic pain.
"I think (chronic pain) will be an emerging topic for RMTs," White says.
Unlike other health care professions, the role of massage therapy in pain management has yet to receive mainstream recognition. However, as the opioid crisis continues to highlight the need to address people's pain problems, the window of opportunity for massage therapy gets wider, and education will play a critical role – both on the side of the public and the RMTs.
Professional education is also key and the fact that not all massage therapists in Canada are regulated. This means training and education vary from province to province, and can be as short as 250 hours in unregulated provinces.
Advocating for the profession as an effective non-pharmacological alternative to opioids will be a challenge, given the jurisdictional differences.
"How can we advocate for massage therapy being an option if we can't actually, with good confidence, state that massage therapists would consistently provide quality care to address those issues," says Beth Barberree, RMT and clinic director for Massage at the Club in Calgary. Alberta's massage therapy profession is yet to achieve professional regulation. Barberree is the co-founder and president of the Alberta Support Council for Massage Therapy, an advocacy group established in 2016 with the sole purpose of supporting processes and activities toward massage therapy regulation in the province.
"As a therapist in Alberta, I would like to see more information about chronic pain, the management of chronic pain and current research in chronic pain coming out to the practitioners," Barberree says.
Availability of more chronic pain management education for massage therapists would help increase practitioners' competencies in pain management, says Mike Dixon, RMT at Electra Health Floor in Vancouver.
One of the hottest issues anticipated to dominate 2018 is the impending legalization of recreational marijuana. While much of the discussions focus around access and dispensing policies, health-care practitioners are looking at the issue from a different angle.
Much of the concerns surrounding the legalization is the lack of information coming from the government and regulatory bodies around the health implications of recreational marijuana.
Some RMTs are already seeing patients who use marijuana for medicinal purposes, such as for chronic pain or post-traumatic stress disorders, says Scott Andrew, instructor and clinical supervisor at the Atlantic College of Therapeutic Massage in Fredericton, N.B. However, when recreational marijuana use becomes legal, practitioners may see more clients coming in for treatment under the influence – whether for medicinal or recreational purposes.
"There are concerns, as a practitioner, over trying to find more information on perceived pain levels for the application of techniques. How well can that individual, who has taken marijuana… perceive treatment that we're applying to them?" Andrew notes.
Some of the questions that need to be answered for practitioners around marijuana include: When is it safe for a RMT to provide treatment to someone who has consumed marijuana? How long does the effects of the substance remain in a person's system?
"In my own practice, I've seen it as well, too, and I've had to contact my mentors to get information on how it affects things like craniosacral technique. What I get is a totally different feel from an individual who's using medicinal marijuana and I've heard that from others," Andrew says.
It is prudent for RMTs and other health practitioners to brush up on available knowledge about marijuana and its effects on the user population. Having sufficient knowledge on how to handle and communicate with patients who use marijuana will go a long way in establishing boundaries between patients and practitioners.
It's also important for RMTs to understand the distinction between recreational use and medicinal use, Kohlmeier says. People take medicinal marijuana to help alleviate certain medical conditions, and most of the time it's to help with the pain – the same way people take opioids or NSAID for pain relief.
The challenge, however, is that there is no sufficient literature that currently exists that can inform a health practitioner on dosage information when it comes to medical marijuana use, which makes it difficult to determine whether they are able to give consent to treat or whether there's impairment.
While it is important for practitioners to be aware of the potential issues and questions that may come up with marijuana legalization, Dixon from Vancouver cautions that RMTs, being a drugless practitioner, need to refrain from making recommendations about marijuana to their patients, and to refer patients to the appropriate professional.
Building research capacity for the massage therapy profession continues to be on the agenda of those pushing for inclusion of massage therapy in mainstream health care discussions. Although considered to be in its infancy, Gowan-Moody maintains massage therapy research is slowly building and opportunities to collaborate with other disciplines on research and other scholarly work are increasing as well.
"I would encourage the profession to be thinking about what are some of the problems that we are facing, and formulate some research questions in order to create knowledge, in order to have an impact on solving problems," Gowan-Moody says.
One emerging topic of research in massage therapy is its role in oncology and integrated care for cancer patients. The massage therapy profession in Saskatchewan has been invited to participate in an integrative oncology project with the University of Saskatchewan, according to Gowan-Moody.
"Researchers are looking at massage therapy as part of survivorship care for post-radiation, post-chemotherapy. Massage therapy and cancer care seems to be quite intriguing and it's risen in both research and clinical practice interest," she says.
Members of the editorial advisory board believe the profession can do a lot more in building research capacity, and it starts at the education level. However, regulation and standardized education across Canada may be necessary ingredients to achieve this goal.
Another area of potential research opportunity is in working with health advocacy groups and developing research studies on the effects of massage therapy on specific medical conditions, suggests Dixon.
"What I did back in 2004, when I worked at West Coast College of Massage Therapy, was that we (reached out to) people with multiple sclerosis and we had an opportunity to do research on 67 or 68 clients," Dixon recalls. His group studied the effects of massage therapy on MS patients. The results of that study was developed into a poster presentation, Dixon says.
It might be time to work on your social media skills, as this may be the new window to acquiring new clients. According to statistics from Ogilvy Cannes, 74 per cent of the population turn to social networks for guidance on purchasing decisions. Another statistic indicates 71 per cent of patients are more likely to choose a health care provider based on a reference on social network. Consider it your new "word-of-mouth" marketing.
A health provider's website is often the first place a potential client will visit before booking an appointment. Make sure yours or your clinic's website is responsive and built for compatibility – whether a client is viewing it on a desktop, a tablet or a smart phone.
Competing for attention in the ever-widening world of digital marketing will require more than simply having a website and a few social media accounts. According to a report from Demand Gen, 47 per cent of buyers viewed three to five pieces of content before engaging with a product or service provider. Consider providing visual content (images, infographics, videos), as it is 40 times more likely to get shared on social media than other types of content.
Considering that nearly a third of the world's population are engaged in social networks, it might be time to think about focusing some of your marketing efforts on your social media presence. Use social media to draw people to excellent content residing on your responsive website, and to connect with top influencers in health care and effectively build up your digital profile.
Say, 'Hey Siri!' According to Google, 20 per cent of search queries on its mobile app and on Android devices are voice searches. Voice search is the new frontier for online search engine optimization. Make sure you optimize content on your web pages for keywords people will use in their voice searches to find a local RMT, for instance.


TRACY -- For two consecutive days, police converged on two separate neighborhoods in Tracy. Both situations turned out to be hoaxes.
"Swatting is a big deal. It may seem like fun to the person doing the swatting but it has real-life consequences," Tracy Police Lieutenant Terry Miller said.
Swatting is when someone reports a fake emergency at an unsuspecting home or business in the hopes of prompting a large police response, often including a SWAT team.
Miller says his department is now on guard after two swatting incidents last week.
The first call came in last Wednesday to a home on Glenhaven Drive. Then, on Thursday, police rushed to a home on Jenni Lane only for it to be another fake emergency.
"Both were male callers saying that one was that he shot his wife and that she was dead," Miller said. "The second male caller said he had stabbed his wife and that she was dead."
Both calls were a waste of resources since first responders have to act as if every call is real, potentially putting others at risk.
"Those officers, those firemen, those paramedics are not available to handle other real calls for service, where people actually need our help," Miller said.
Police say the fake 911 calls are more than just a nuisance, they put people in danger.
"Anytime that you have such a serious call, tensions are high. We're looking at a potential homicide. We have officers, their guns are more at a tactical kind of situation," Miller told FOX40. "There's so much potential for things to go wrong and that's why it makes it so dangerous."

Rain headed back to Bay Area by early Wednesday

Ukaa Erdene replaces the windshield wipers on his delivery van in Fremont on Saturday. Rain showers are expected throughout the Bay Area starting Wednesday.

A series of weak storms heading to the Bay Area from the Gulf of Alaska is expected to land by midweek, bringing an inch or two of rain starting early Wednesday morning, according to weather forecasters.
Rick Canepa, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Monterey, doesn't expect the rainfall — which he said will peak Wednesday night into Thursday morning — to generate any records, similar to the rain that fell in the region over the weekend from Friday morning through early Saturday night.
He said rainfall totals during that period ranged from .16 inches in San Jose to .18 inches in Walnut Creek; .45 inches in Oakland to .48 inches in Napa; .55 inches in Livermore to .56 inches in Soquel, and .74 inches in Woodside.
"Typically, these weather systems coming from the Northwest don't generate a lot of rainfall because they are coming from a higher latitude where there is usually less water vapor available," he said.
Still, the good news is that "more rain kind of keeps putting that fire season to an end,'' said Canepa.
And as the rain heads east to the Sierra this week, he said, it should produce from six to 12 inches of snow — good news for ski resorts, many of which are preparing to open this month.
Until then, the temperatures in the North Bay and East Bay on Monday will start in the low 30-to-mid-40-degrees, and head up through the day to the mid-to-low-60 degrees.
South Bay temperatures will start in the low 40 degrees and move to a high that day in the mid-60s degrees, while Santa Cruz County will start in the upper 30-degrees and rise to the low-to-mid-60 degrees.
Tuesday's weather should be similar, he said, though partly-to-mostly cloudy conditions should warm temperatures up a bit before the rain on Wednesday.

Ray (Renato) Starita, an Italian-American, along with his brothers Al and Rudy (and the less well-known Julio) were influential in British dance band music in the 1920s and early 1930s. Ray, a saxophonist and clarinetist, led the Piccadilly Revels Band and the Ambassadors' Band.
John Wright has compiled some interesting historical data regarding the Starita family, drawing on the accounts of their children, and he provides a unique photo gallery of Ray Starita's career in England and later life in the United States.


[We are reproducing here the review of the book The Age of Aspiration by Dilip Hiro by Kamil Ahsan (a doctoral student in developmental biology at the University of Chicago and a freelancer writer). The book is a good critique of the neo-liberal raj from 1991, especially the corporate-communal raj under Modi government. It more or less reflects Indian reality viewed from the side of the downtrodden. At the same time, the author's critique of the left movement, especially of the Naxalite movement, shows lack of any serious in-depth study. This is more so when he is trying to analyze the communist movement in India delinking it from the serious developments in the international communist movement.
It seems for Hiro, Naxalite movement is restricted to just the Maoists. He, as well as the reviewer to a great extent, do not care to see the in-depth ideological political struggle which took place against the revisionist trend represented by CPI-CPI(M) leading to Naxalbari Uprising and later to the formation of CPI(ML). More than state repression, it was the failure of the Naxalite movement in making a concrete analysis of the Indian situation, in applying the Marxist theory according to this situation, in mechanically applying the Chinese Path, in the failure to build a Bolshevik style party and reducing the revolutionary struggles to Chinese model 'people's war' which led to severe setbacks to the CPI(ML) and other CR organizations and their disintegration by 1972.
Out of the many groups functioning following the split, three joined hands in 2004 and formed CPI(Maoist), upholding Maoism for the first time in India, mechanically continuing the annihilation line based people's war of early period with modern weapons and concentrated in jungle terrain. Like Arundhati Roy, for Hiro also Naxalite means Maoists and vice-versa. Both are used synonymously. Because of his blind admiration for Maoists, he does not see that it is in the areas where Maoists are active that the Jindals, Essars and all types of old and new corporate are doing business without any danger of any mass protests. He does not try to recognize that on the other hand, where Maoists are not there, POSCO, Chilka, Kalinganagar like mass movements in Odisha, movements against SEZ in Rajnandgaon and Shivnath River privatization in Chhattisgarh, anti-nuclear plant movements in Jaitapur and in a number of other places proposed by the UPA government were stopped.
Similarly he seems ignorant about the self-criticisms raised by Comrades Kobad Gandhi and Narayan Sanyal, former PBMs, Sabyasachi Pandey, former Odisha leader and many more former leading comrades of Maoists against their theory and practice. He is also ignorant of the fact that even its front organizations have vanished and it has only armed squads, or it is an organization of just armed squads, at a time armed squads varying from one extreme to other extreme are cutting at the roots of all democratic values. Any reality check will convince Hiro like friends that similar to what happened in AP and Telangana, in its other former strongholds also the Maoists are suffering severe setbacks and presently their presence is limited to a few pockets. As far as the big coverage given to them still by the corporate press is concerned, one should remember that in the 1980s the Shining Path of Peru and in 1990s the Maoists of Nepal also were front page news even in the US!
IN 2008, under the aegis of a Congress Party-led coalition government in India, the country was rocked by one of the biggest scandals of graft and corruption it had ever seen. The scandal was led by Andimuthu Raja, a member of a regional party that had formed a coalition with the old dynastic Congress, who became the minister of communications in 2007.
Hiro begins his account with the city of Gurgaon, which he calls "New India in miniature, with all its achievements and failures. ... But scrape the surface ever so slightly and you discover a dark, Dickensian underbelly." Hiro's focused narrative elucidates how corporate executives jet to and from their Western multinational offices in Gurgaon, a city built upon an underclass that populates the slums dotting the periphery of Gurgaon. It is a vivid account of the concerted effort on the part of Indian politicians to give wide, often illegal, berths to corporations in Gurgaon and facilitate massive construction projects that enabled the return and settlement of wealthy expatriate Indians to Gurgaon to helm its many corporations.
Appropriately, The Age of Aspirations is replete with colourful and sordid tales of sleaze and corruption that follow politicians and businessmen alike—characters who Hiro unfailingly introduces with flamboyant physical descriptions. (He describes the CEO of a large steel plant as a "slight man with a skinny, tapered face ... jug-eared." Later on, the populist social activist Anna Hazare is introduced as a man with "fat, crumpling cheeks.") Many of Hiro's stories are traced back to the reverberations of Delhi's 1991 introduction of the New Economic Policy (NEP). A set of pro-corporate reforms that followed after India was granted an IMF loan requiring the reduction of the fiscal deficit, the NEP is seen by many who follow the political economy of India as the main driver for the precipitous economic growth that India saw towards the end of the century.
The twin moves of providing the private sector untrammelled access to public licenses and resources like coal and steel, and disinvestment from the public sector allowed India to join the ranks of the "emerging economies," but did little but make things worse for the immensely poor. As Hiro describes in detail, the NEP put India on what the country's elites saw as a righteously neoliberal path—one in which few other than the wealthy and connected would gain. Two decades after the introduction of the NEP, income inequality in India had doubled.
A splinter group from the Communist Party of India, Maoist guerillas [the CPI(Maoist)] or colloquially, the Naxalites) have held de facto control of parts of the Indian mainland; in 1967, the Naxalite movement spread from a peasant uprising in Naxalbari, northern Bengal, to the countryside and cities of southern and eastern India. Clashing regularly with Indian paramilitary agencies and the army over the years, Maoist guerillas have consistently waged armed struggle, Mao's "people's war" against the Indian establishment in response to exploitation of India's mineral-rich heartland by private mining companies—companies essentially given blank checks by political parties at the cost of mass displacement, dis-enfranchisement and brutal repression of the indigenous Adivasi population.
Hiro's foray into the oft-neglected Naxalite strongholds is evocative and important, given the lack of critical writing on the Naxalite insurgency. He seems largely sympathetic to the Naxalite cause, which feels warranted given the broad impact that pro-corporate policies and the privatization of natural resources have had on the Adivasi population. But his tendency to gloss over the diversity of leftist politics in India as well as the conditions that have led the Indian Left into deep crisis leaves his narrative woefully incomplete.
When the Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) formed in 1969, it subsequently splintered into numerous groups, which today form a vast continuum of left groups. Some of these groups have allied with far-right groups like the BJP in order to better jockey for political power; others, like the CPI(M) are seen as centrist, to have lost their revolutionary credentials because of a stubborn faith in electoral politics; yet others like the Naxalites, with a strong Adivasi and rural base in the peasant population, are perceived by many in the Indian Left to be blind to criticism.
Though there is clearly a great deal of room for nuanced analysis in the history of the Indian Left, particularly in any discussion of armed insurrections of dispossessed rural and indigenous populations, Hiro does not seem to want to tackle the subject head-on. Instead, he saves the bulk of his invective for the powers that allow mining giants like Tata Steel and Jindal Steel to lay waste to huge segments of northeast India. But today, with the even more business-friendly Modi govt. setting the stage for a broader confrontation with the Naxalities by relaxing environmental and regulatory rules to allow unrestrained private activity, an honest reckoning of the history of CPI factions and the state of the Indian Left—one which Hiro is entirely capable of doing justice to—is vital.

Very Old Bones By: William Kennedy
Pulitzer Prize–winning author
This "immensely gratifying novel" tells the story of an Irish-American clan whose exploits changed Albany forever (Boston Globe).
"Kennedy's narrator speaks for a grand cast of saints, eccentrics, artists, blackguards and tarnished heroes, all of whose lives come together in this quirky but consistently fascinating weave of a story." —Dallas Morning News
When it was built, the Phelan mansion was the only home on the block. In the decades since, countless tragedies have swept through its rambling halls, but no matter how many times its foundations have been rocked, the old house still stands. Now, in 1958, its sole occupants are the eccentric old painter Peter Phelan and his illegitimate son, Orson, who sees all—but says nothing. When Peter invites his remaining family to hear him read his will aloud, it forces the Phelan clan to reckon with the most powerful force in Albany: their own tortured history.
Unveiling a series of portraits inspired by family tragedy, Peter takes the Phelans back into the past, as far as 1887, forcing them to come face-to-face with the origins of the family curse. As the raucous narrative unfolds, Orson does his best to grapple with his roots, and the knowledge that the sins of the past can never truly be washed away.
William Kennedy's eight-book Albany Cycle is one of the most ambitious projects in modern historical fiction, a kaleidoscopic portrait of a city whose heroes are its corrupt politicians, conmen, and thieves. The Phelans are one of the roughest families in American literature, and also one of the greatest, who "can claim a place beside O'Neill's Tyrones and Steinbeck's Joads" (Library Journal).
The Collar By Frank O'Connor
A collection of short fiction about Irish priests from an acclaimed literary talent who shines a light on a fascinating world often obscured by secrecy and sentiment.
Over the course of his long and distinguished career, Frank O'Connor wrote many stories about priests. Some of his most iconic characters are men of the cloth, and few writers have portrayed the unique demands of the priesthood with as much empathy, honesty, and wit. This collection, edited and introduced by his widow, Harriet O'Donovan Sheehy, brings together the best of O'Connor's short fiction on the subject.
From "An Act of Charity," the ironically titled tale of church efforts to cover up a curate's suicide, to "The Sentry," an exquisite blend of drama and satire sparked by the British army's invasion of a priest's onion patch, these sixteen stories capture the full range of pressures visited on the Irish clergy. "Peasants" is a lesson in what happens when a man of God places law and order above compassion, while "Achilles' Heel" reveals that even a bishop can be rendered powerless by his housekeeper. "The Frying-pan" and "The Wreath" are sad and lovely portraits of priests caught between their vows of celibacy and their natural desire for human connection.
In the rituals and contradictions of the priesthood, Frank O'Connor found one of his greatest motifs. The Collar showcases an artist at the peak of his powers and shines a brilliant light on a fascinating world too often hidden in shadow and sentiment.

"One of the masters of the short story." —Newsweek
Born Fighting by: Jim Web
A "robust and passionate" history of the Scots-Irish people that chronicles their earliest beginnings at Hadrian's Wall, their mass emigration in the eighteenth century, and their lasting impact on American culture (Booklist). In his first work of nonfiction, bestselling novelist James Webb tells the epic story of the Scots-Irish, a people whose lives and worldview were dictated by resistance, conflict, and struggle, and who, in turn, profoundly influenced the social, political, and cultural landscape of America from its beginnings through the present day.
More than 27 million Americans today can trace their lineage to the Scots, whose bloodline was stained by centuries of continuous warfare along the border between England and Scotland, and later in the bitter settlements of England's Ulster Plantation in Northern Ireland. Between 250,000 and 400,000 Scots-Irish migrated to America in the eighteenth century, traveling in groups of families and bringing with them not only long experience as rebels and outcasts but also unparalleled skills as frontiersmen and guerrilla fighters. Their cultural identity reflected acute individualism, dislike of aristocracy and a military tradition, and, over time, the Scots-Irish defined the attitudes and values of the military, of working class America, and even of the peculiarly populist form of American democracy itself.
Born Fighting is the first book to chronicle the full journey of this remarkable cultural group, and the profound, but unrecognized, role it has played in the shaping of America. Written with the storytelling verve that has earned his works such acclaim as "captivating . . . unforgettable" (the Wall Street Journal on Lost Soldiers), Scots-Irishman James Webb, Vietnam combat veteran and former Naval Secretary, traces the history of his people, beginning nearly two thousand years ago at Hadrian's Wall, when the nation of Scotland was formed north of the Wall through armed conflict in contrast to England's formation to the south through commerce and trade. Webb recounts the Scots' odyssey—their clashes with the English in Scotland and then in Ulster, their retreat from one war-ravaged land to another. Through engrossing chronicles of the challenges, the Scots-Irish faced, Webb vividly portrays how they developed the qualities that helped settle the American frontier and define the American character.
Born Fighting shows that the Scots-Irish were 40% of the Revolutionary War army; they included the pioneers Daniel Boone, Lewis and Clark, Davy Crockett, and Sam Houston; they were the writers Edgar Allan Poe and Mark Twain; and they have given America numerous great military leaders, including Stonewall Jackson, Ulysses S. Grant, Audie Murphy, and George S. Patton, as well as most of the soldiers of the Confederacy (only 5 percent of whom owned slaves, and who fought against what they viewed as an invading army). It illustrates how the Scots-Irish redefined American politics, creating the populist movement and giving the country a dozen presidents, including Andrew Jackson, Teddy Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, Ronald Reagan, and Bill Clinton. And it explores how the Scots-Irish culture of isolation, hard luck, stubbornness, and mistrust of the nation's elite formed and still dominates blue-collar America, the military services, the Bible Belt, and country music.
Both a distinguished work of cultural history and a human drama that speaks straight to the heart of contemporary America, Born Fighting reintroduces America to its most powerful, patriotic, and individualistic cultural group—one too often ignored or taken for granted
Captains and the Kings: The Story of an American Dynasty Taylor Caldwell (Author) ©1983
This is a great rising and falling novel about the buildup of a colossal fortune, the political power that comes with it, and the operation of a curse laid on an Irish-American dynasty and the ruthless driving man who founded it.
Joseph Francis Xavier Armagh was thirteen years old when he first saw America through a dirty porthole on the steerage deck of The Irish Queen. It was the early1850's and he was a penniless immigrant, an orphan cast on a hostile shore to make a home for himself and his younger brother and infant sister. Some seventy years later, from his deathbed, Joseph Armagh last glimpsed his adopted land from the gleaming windows of a palatial estate. A multi-millionaire, one of the most powerful and feared men, Joseph Armagh had indeed found a home. CAPTAINS AND KINGS is the story of the price that was paid for it in the consuming, single-minded determination of a man clawing his way to the top; in the bitter-sweet bliss of the love of a beautiful woman; in the almost too-late enjoyment of extraordinary children; and in the curse which used the hand of fate to strike in the very face of success itself.
Once again, Taylor Caldwell has looked into America's roistering past as a setting for a drama of the consequences of savage ambition - and its meaning then and now.

Q: Batch renaming files before certain character I have a bunch of Pdf files with names like so:
Malcolm Gaskill - History.pdf
Manfred B. Steger - Globalization; A Very Short Introduction.pdf

I want to rename them to get rid of everything before the first hyphen so they end up like:
History.pdf
Globalization; A Very Short Introduction.pdf

How do I go about doing this?
Thanks

A: @ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL
SET "sourcedir=U:\sourcedir"
FOR /f "delims=" %%a IN (
 'dir /b /a-d "%sourcedir%\*-*.pdf" '
 ) DO (
 FOR /f "tokens=1*delims=-" %%b IN ("%%a") DO (
  FOR /f "tokens=*" %%d IN ("%%c") DO (
   ECHO(REN "%sourcedir%\%%~a" "%%~d"
  )
 )
)
GOTO :EOF

You would need to change the setting of sourcedir to suit your circumstances.
The required REN commands are merely ECHOed for testing purposes. After you've verified that the commands are correct, change ECHO(REN to REN to actually rename the files.
Not particularly easy for a beginner, since the filenames may contain ; which is a separator like Space
First, perform a dir /b to get all of the required filenames which are applied to %%a using for /f with no delimiters.
Next, tokenise using - into %%b and %%c, then remove leading separators from %%c using tokens=* applying required filename to %%d.
Then mix-and-match to build the required rename command.


John Burns (President of the Local Government Board) and John Morley (Secretary of State for India), were opposed to the country becoming involved in a European war. They informed the Prime Minister, Herbert Asquith, that they intended to resign over the issue. When war was declared on 4th August, three of the men, Trevelyan, Burns and Morley, resigned, but Asquith managed to persuade Lloyd George, his Chancellor of the Exchequer, to change his mind.
The day after war was declared, Trevelyan began contacting friends about a new political organisation he intended to form to oppose the war. This included two pacifist members of the Liberal Party, Norman Angell and E. D. Morel, and Ramsay MacDonald, the leader of the Labour Party. A meeting was held and after considering names such as the Peoples' Emancipation Committee and the Peoples' Freedom League, they selected the Union of Democratic Control.
The four men agreed that one of the main reasons for the conflict was the secret diplomacy of people like Britain's foreign secretary, Sir Edward Grey. They decided that the Union of Democratic Control should have three main objectives: (1) that in future to prevent secret diplomacy there should be parliamentary control over foreign policy; (2) there should be negotiations after the war with other democratic European countries in an attempt to form an organisation to help prevent future conflicts; (3) that at the end of the war the peace terms should neither humiliate the defeated nation nor artificially rearrange frontiers as this might provide a cause for future wars.
The founders of the Union of Democratic Control produced a manifesto and invited people to support it. Over the next few weeks several leading figures joined the organisation. This included members of the Liberal Party (Arthur Ponsonby, J. A. Hobson, Charles Buxton, Frederick Pethick-Lawrence, Norman Angell, Arnold Rowntree, Philip Morrel, Morgan Philips Price, George Cadbury) and the Labour Party (Helena Swanwick, Fred Jowett, Ramsay MacDonald, Tom Johnston, Philip Snowden, Arthur Henderson, David Kirkwood, William Anderson, Isabella Ford, H. H. Brailsford). Others who joined who were not actively involved in party politics at that time included Israel Zangwill, Bertrand Russell, Margaret Llewelyn Davies, Konni Zilliacus, Margaret Sackville and Morgan Philips Price). Trevelyan's house (14 Great College Street, London) became the UDC's headquarters.
No. 16 Great College Street is a Grade II* Listed five storey terraced house in the City of Westminster within the Smiths Square Conservation Area. Scott Brownrigg's brief as planners and architects was to secure planning permission and listed building consent for the refurbishment of the £10m property and return it to its original form as a single family dwelling, incorporating the features required by a modern family.
The conservation-led approach to the project is reinforced by the refurbishment or preservation of the majority of the fabric of the building as it already exists. The period features are then enhanced by inserting contemporary and freestanding fixtures and furnishings that are required for every day living.

Regional banks Fraud detection
KeyCorp discloses $90M exposure from suspected fraud
By Paul Davis July 16, 2019, 12:41 p.m. EDT 1 Min Read
KeyCorp in Cleveland warned that it faces $90 million in exposure to a client suspected of committing fraud.
The $142 billion-asset company said in a regulatory filing Tuesday that it discovered the allegedly fraudulent activity last week. The issue involves a business customer.
"The company continues to investigate this matter to determine the potential exposure," Key said in the filing. "The ultimate financial impact could be lower and will depend, in part, on the company's success in its efforts to recover the funds."
The bank said that because it is working with law enforcement, it "may be limited in what information it can disclose." It said it plans to pursue all available sources of recovery and other means to mitigate the potential loss.
The South Bend Tribune in Indiana recently reported that the bank filed a civil lawsuit against Interlogic Outsourcing, a payroll processing company, for "fraudulently initiated wire transfers." The article said the company incurred a $122 million overdraft by setting up funds transfers when it lacked the money to cover them.
KeyCorp is scheduled to report second-quarter earnings on July 23.

The current Senate bill only creates a sham imitation of these systems. This bill completely fails to uphold the government's end of this social contract, but would still force Americans to buy expensive, poorly regulated, junk insurance. Insurance policies would only be required to have an actuarial value of 60 percent, a shockingly low number. The insurance companies will not be banned from placing annual caps on benefits, and there is a massive loophole to get around an already too high "limit" on out-of-pocket cost. The end result is that having this "insurance" will not prevent Americans from bankruptcy if the get sick, nullifying the entire logic behind universal health insurance. For moral, political, policy, and economic reasons, progressives must oppose any government mandate to buy insurance as long as the government refuses to pass laws ensuring that every American actually has access to decent, affordable health insurance.

I have seen all types of commercials. Some real funny, some real stupid and not one real weird commercial. I will admit I watched the whole thing and will remember the product. So I guess this weird commercial was effective and did what it was supposed to do. Anyone else have any weird commercials? Next week I will start posting funny commercials. I must admit that I might be a bit skeptical about trying Vigorsol gum.

1/6th Scale
With Lego and Disney both being the giants that they are, it's no surprise they've decided to create an incredible giant collectible, and definitely one of the best Lego sets ever, the massive 4,000 piece LEGO Disney Castle.
Details on the Lego Disney Castle
The castle was designed to replicate the Walt Disney World® Resort Cinderella Castle. Which is, in essence, the castle that every person who has ever watched a single Disney animated feature knows and loves. Which is why Disney and LEGO have designed each accessible room to represent various animated features throughout Disney's history. Like a room based on the Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, or a room featuring the spinning wheel from the Sleeping Beauty. When it comes to characters included, the Lego figures that come packaged are Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Donald and Daisy Duck, and Tinker Bell.
Of course, if you combine it with other LEGO figures or castles, you can increase the fun even more. When built, the castle is 29" tall (~74 cm), which is why the main building features 4 floors, while the main tower boasts 5.
Ordering The Lego Disney Castle
This future centerpiece of every Lego and Disney collection in the world is currently set to hit the stores on the 1st of September this year, and will cost $349.99. Considering the size and scale of the LEGO Disney castle, and the general quality of LEGOs, that seems like a reasonable price. If you're a Disney Fan, or you have a little Princess in your life that can't get enough, this could make a great building project to take on with kids.
This is definitely one of the best Lego sets we've seen, and other licensors will have to work hard if they wish to surpass it. (Hey Marvel, how about an X-Mansion / Danger Room / Cerebro Lego Set? Just spitballing here…) LEGO has a listing on their shop, but it's not available to pre-order there or anywhere else yet. We'll be keeping an eye on that, and it should go up soon.

I pulled the Spidey in the coffin image from the first run of What If?, a series I remember fondly. I didn't know quite what to make of it when it first came out, but I knew I loved it. I had read a a few "imaginary stories" in the pages of Batman and Superman, but here was a whole series based on "what could have been" scenarios! The possibilities of such a title seemed limitless, and indeed is one of the inspirations for this blog.
I think I remember that issus! It was based on the speculation "What if Kraven The Hunter had killed Spidey, instead of burying him alive?"
In this case, Mysterio appears to have done that, after using one of those Nth-projectors Roxxon used on the parallel-Earth where HGW's Martians invaded a second time!
"what if Spiderman held auditions for substitutes with good candidates like maybe Tarzan, to not so goods like George of the jungle and Quasimodo (Victor Hugo's version)?
Ross, did you get the DC heroes from a single or multiple images? The only way I could see that grouping of characters would be from a TPB collection of DC Presents / Superman team-ups.
They were all together on a World's Finest cover.
hey i remember this cover of world's finest....batman was in the coffen....cool cover....then....cool cover now too....good work!!!!
What If the original Marvel bullpen had been the Fantastic Four. Flo Steinberg as the Invisible Girl.
Just looked it up on Mike's amazing world. It was actually worlds finest 269.
269; 296; simple case of dyslexia. Nothing rome.
Ross, Paul, et al: Thanks. I knew it had to be some kind of collection or anthology cover. I'd forgotten that World's Finest was an anthology book for a while during the inflation years -- I had just bought my first house back then and didn't have much left over for comics (I know, bad prioritization).
Bought the issue so recognized the title. It reminded me of the old style comics with many features. The villain in Red Tornado was The Construct and I always thought him and Ultron would be a good pair to fight JLA/Avengers.
I liked the idea of "What If" at first, but over time I felt like the answer to every "what if" question was, "Everyone would have died, that's what! Now shut up and be grateful it went the way we told you it did the first time."


Attendance was low at the council's monthly meeting on Monday night.
By the time the first roll-call vote – rather than voice vote – was done at 9:20pm, just 26 of 63 councillors were in the chamber, the voting records show.
That might be one reason why, unusually for its monthly meeting, councillors flew through several pending motions – some of which had been waiting for more than a year.
All who spoke backed Fianna Fáil Councillor Deirdre Heney's motion to make Dublin a dementia-inclusive city.
"The disease can lead people to be very isolated in their communities," she said, as she introduced it.
So she wants dementia-awareness training for council staff, those in area offices scattered across the city, or in the housing department, who are likely to come across people who are living with dementia.
Sinn Féin Councillor Janice Boylan said she would like the training herself. Other councillors would benefit too, she said.
Council Chief Owen Keegan agreed the council would do that.
"We should set the standard as far as the construction industry is concerned," said People Before Profit Councillor Andrew Keegan, when his motion came up.
He wants the council to only accept tenders from companies employing contractors on their building projects who directly employ their workers.
In other words, there should be no "bogus self-employment" on council sites. His motion was motivated by the proposed development of a super depot in Ballymun, he says.
Other councillors backed the motion. "The current tender process just creates a race to the bottom," said Sinn Féin Councillor Séamas McGrattan.
Kathy Quinn, the council's head of finance, said tender documents state that companies have to meet civil- and labour-law requirements. But self-employment and using sub-contractors is legal, she said.
The council could write to the Department of Housing and try to move the agenda in the direction that councillors want it to go, she said.
David Costello of Fianna Fáil said the council has set other rules around who can bid for council projects, such as turnover requirements. So why not around subcontractors?
The council's human-resources department monitors contracts, says Quinn.
Keegan, who had proposed the motion, said that council management just tick the boxes, but "there is actually […] no safeguard for the workers behind the scenes".
He wants to see the council approach the department about it, and put safeguards in place, going down the line and making sure everything is above board.
When Fianna Fáil Councillor David Costello put forward a motion to accelerate plans to build homes on a site in Finglas, it kicked off a discussion over what kind of homes should go there.
Costello's motion called for the council to provide "social and affordable homes" on the site, which is where the Abigail Centre homeless accommodation is right now.
Independents 4 Change Councillor Pat Dunne called for that to be changed to "public housing".
Why get bogged down in semantics? asked Sinn Féin Councillor Anthony Connaghan.
"Affordable" could mean for-purchase private affordable, and mean selling off the land, she says.
Ten councillors voted for the amendment to change the wording to "public housing", and 16 voted against.
Costello changed the wording to "affordable, including cost rental" and councillors voted that through. He didn't want to hold the project up and risk the community opposing it, he said.
Chief Executive Owen Keegan said the council is procuring a design team for the project. But it also has to find somewhere to move the homeless hostel to. "That is not going to be easy," he said.
Earlier in the meeting, councillors voted through bylaws to allow for delivery hubs whereby last-mile distribution can be done by low-emission and electric vehicles, bicycles or on foot – rather than big gas guzzlers. Those who want to operate them have to apply for a licence.
In May last year, the council ran a pilot project on Wolfe Tone Square with UPS setting up a hub where bicycle couriers, or those on foot, could take over city-centre deliveries from larger vehicles that take up more space, issue more emissions, and block cycle lanes.
In the six-months after that, more than 2,500 stop-start delivery-vehicle journeys – the kind that are typical for delivery vehicles with lots of drop-offs – were removed from the city centre, according to the council.
At Monday's meeting, independent Councillor Mannix Flynn said he thinks the pilot was successful. But he said he hopes that any hubs will be better-looking that the one at Wolfe Tone Square.
That one was ugly, he said. They should be "designed in a really really appropriate way".

Q: Display an item's name as the title on the Action Bar I'm working on an app that displays all the contact names in a ListView. On click, the app displays all the details of that contact in another activity.
I want to display the contact name as a title on the action bar on the other activity, so that the user can see the contact name on the action bar that he clicked on.

A: In the other activity inside on create you can do something like:
String name; // Get the name from the exttra of the intent or howsoever you are getting the name
ActionBar ab = getActionBar();
ab.setTitle(name);

You can replace name with the contact name that you can pass as extras with the intent or by other ways.

Q: getting value of dojo NodeList inner elements I am building a configuration dialog using dojo that I later need to interrogate for user input. There are multiple rows in the dialog each with the same format and tags. Here is the html that I use to build each row.
html = '
 Label:
<input id="mac" type="hidden" name="mac" value="'+mac+'"/>
<input id="label" type="text" maxlength="6" name="label" value="'+labl+'"/>

';

That part all works and I can see the data in Firebug on return.
I need to parse the values out and ultimately send them to the server using xhr. So I thought that I could use dojo query to get the nodelist and walk each node to get to the input values and build an associative array of them to send. I figured this to be much like validating the values programmatically.
I can see the innerhtml on each node (using dojo.query(".cfgtxtrow").forEach( function(node)) but cannot figure out how to programmatically (using dojo) get to the values on each node. I thought that I would be able to use dojo.byId or query on the Nodelist to get to its inner elements but I just get errors back.
I am beginning to suspect that my concepts are all wrong, as I thought this would be simple.
Here is what I ended up with..
dojo.query(".cfgtxtrow input").forEach( function(node)
{
    id = dojo.attr(node, "id" );
    console.debug( node );

    if( id == "mac" ) mac = dojo.attr( node, "value" ); // since mac comes first this is safe..
    if( id == "label" )
    {
        labl = dojo.attr( node, "value" );
        console.debug( mac );
        console.debug( labl );
        macLabels[mac] = labl;
    }
});
console.debug(macLabels[mac]);
// send the data via the xhrPut call..

I thought it should be simple and the dojo.attr call seems to do the job..
Is there a better way to do the same thing ?

A: First of all you should not use the id attribute to identify multiple rows. There can be only one dom node with a certain id in an html document. Maybe that's the start of your problem?
So if you change your html as follows:

 Label:
<input class="mac" type="hidden" name="mac" value="macValue"/>
<input class="label" type="text" maxlength="6" name="label" value="labelValue"/>

Running this (quick & dirty) code on it
require(['dojo/query'],function(query) {
    var macLabels = {};
    query('.cfgtxtrow').forEach(function(row) {
        var mac = query('.mac', row)[0].value;
        var label = query('.label', row)[0].value;
        macLabels[mac] = label;
    });
    console.log(macLabels);
});

Will output this object on the console log: {macValue: "labelValue"}
