Gošić falu Horvátországban Šibenik-Knin megyében. Közigazgatásilag Kistanjéhez tartozik.

Fekvése
Knintől légvonalban 31, közúton 41 km-re délnyugatra, községközpontjától 15 km-re nyugatra Dalmácia északi-középső részén, Bukovica területén, a megyehatáron fekszik.

Története
A szerbek betelepülése a 16. század elején kezdődött. Knin környékére már 1511-ben nagy számú szerb lakosság érkezett, majd főként Bosznia és Hercegovina területéről 1523 és 1527 között Dalmácia területére is sok szerb települt. A környékbeli településekkel együtt 1527-ben elfoglalta a török, melynek uralma alól a 17. század végén szabadult fel. 1805-ben egész Dalmáciával együtt a Francia Császárság része lett. 1815-ben a bécsi kongresszus újra Ausztriának adta, amely a Dalmát Királyság részeként Zárából igazgatta 1918-ig. A településnek 1857-ben 116, 1910-ben 226 lakosa volt. Az első világháború után előbb a Szerb-Horvát-Szlovén Királyság, majd Jugoszlávia része lett. 1991-ben csaknem teljes lakossága szerb nemzetiségű volt. Szerb lakói még ez évben csatlakoztak a Krajinai Szerb Köztársasághoz. A horvát hadsereg 1995 augusztusában a Vihar hadművelet során foglalta vissza a települést. Szerb lakói elmenekültek. A településnek 2011-ben 46 lakosa volt, akik földműveléssel, állattartással foglalkoztak.

Hardik Pandya can clear any ground in the world, says Ravi Shastri
Nagpur | Published: October 1, 2017 11:20:52 PM

India's chief coach Ravi Shastri, whose decision to elevate Hardik Pandya to number four in the batting order proved to be a master-stroke, reckons that the Baroda all-rounder has the ability to clear any ground in the world with his power-packed strokes. It was on Shastri's insistence that Pandya was promoted at No 4 in the third ODI in Indore, where he scored 78 in a winning cause. In the next game, he scored 41 albeit in a losing cause. Asked about the inspirational move, Shastri said:"He (Hardik) is a dangerous guy. He can be a floater in the batting order — tremendous striker of the ball, especially when he hits spinners. I have not seen too many players strike against spinners like that. Yuvraj Singh in his hey days may be. This guy can clear any ground in the world, be it second ball, third ball. It's the exuberance of youth."
Having not let the foot off the pedal, Shastri said key to success is being relentless. "If you have got to be a good team, you have to be relentless. You have got to repeat what you did on Tuesday on Friday, and then on Sunday, and then on Tuesday again," said Shastri. The coach termed the chase of 243 as the best of the series considering it was a difficult Nagpur track.
"We saved best batting for the last. It wasn't an easy track to bat on and the 'hitman' (Rohit's nickname in the Indian dressing room) made it look so easy. It was a treat to the eye. The way the guys showed character once again when Australia were 60 for no loss. We were staring at 275-280 but all the bowlers chipped in and got team right back in the match." Shastri said that the Nagpur track forced the team management to bring back Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah.
"They (Bhuvneshwar and Bumrah) have tremendous, skills. That's why we brought both of them back in the side. When we saw the track, it demanded skills. It's a big ground and you might go for runs with new ball. "But when you have bowlers like them, they can bring you back in the game. They complement each other, they have got varieties galore and their actions are different and vastly experienced."
The coach observed that there's still some room for improvement in the side especially in the fielding department while he would ideally like any top order player, who has settled down, go on to make a big score. "We have to raise the bar in fielding. We need to seize the initiative in an even bigger way in certain situations. One player when he gets into 60's and 70's, should convert and that's what Rohit did today," he concluded.

People spend weeks and even months planning holiday gatherings and trying to come up with the best Christmas gifts available every year.
This can be a lot of fun, but it can also lead to overwhelm and emotional burnout right at the very time when we want to experience the magical feelings of joy and peace that are associated with the Christmas season.
If you want to cast out that negativity and overwhelm, you will need to find the perfect gift, and this is one case where the best gifts are the classics.
The first gift of Christmas didn't take batteries, although it did bring light and life to the world. It didn't even need wrapped in anything but swaddling clothes.
That's right. The first gift of Christmas was our Savior, Jesus Christ, and as you open your heart to receive the gifts he freely offers to you, all of that stress and overwhelm will be replaced with the magical feelings of the Christmas season.
John 3:16-For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
This three minute video might be the most inspiring video you see all Christmas season. I promise it will touch your heart and help you receive the gift!
Christ was the perfect example of love. His whole life was a demonstration of how to love and sacrifice for others.
He knew he would be born into humble circumstances, but chose to come be born in a stable so that we could have a Savior.
He spent his whole life exercising compassion and performing miracles for those who needed healing, even for those that many people would have quickly judged as being unworthy of anyone's love.
Then he suffered in the Garden of Gethsemane and ultimately sacrificed his life so that all of us could receive the greatest blessings of his love throughout mortality and eternity.
We don't have to wait to receive Christ's love. We can receive it right now it we choose to open our hearts.
If you aren't sure how much he loves you or maybe you know he loves you, but find it hard to believe at times, I challenge you to say a prayer to Heavenly Father, and specifically ask him to help you feel the love of Christ.
I promise you that you will be overwhelmed with the warmth of your Savior's love for you if you pray sincerely with a true desire to receive an answer.
Open your heart to receive the gift of love, and then make sure to share it with others.
John 15:13-Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Christ is also known as the Prince of Peace, and it's a very fitting title for him.
He spent his life teaching doctrines that could bring peace to the whole world if they were perfectly followed.
He quickly forgave the sinners that others would persecute. Rather than fighting those who crucified him, he humbly asked his Heavenly Father to forgive them. He was the perfect example of peace.
Through prophecy we know that eventually Christ will come again and bring peace to the whole world.
For now, we can receive his peace in our hearts. Christ suffered the atonement so that he could perfectly understand everything that we go through and give us comfort in our pain.
And he shall go forth, suffering pains and afflictions and temptations of every kind; and this that the word might be fulfilled which saith he will take upon him the pains and the sicknesses of his people. And he will take upon him death, that he may loose the bands of death which bind his people; and he will take upon him their infirmities, that his bowels may be filled with mercy, according to the flesh, that he may know according to the flesh how to succor his people according to their infirmities."
Even though we are living in a world filled with hatred, terror, and turmoil, we can receive comfort as we open our hearts in prayer, fervently seeking Christ's gift of peace.
John 14:27-Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
This song is guaranteed to bring peace to your heart. It's so beautiful!
Christmas is a time of year when we are supposed to be filled with joy, but it is also a time of year when many people experience loneliness and sadness.
As we choose to open our hearts and receive the gifts that Christ has given to us, we can replace feelings of sadness with gratitude and joy.
If we choose to share these gifts with others, that joy can be amplified even more.
This Christmas, open your heart to receiving joy by recognizing and being grateful for the gifts you have been given and then sharing those gifts with others.
By the way, if you are looking for a little bit of a pick me up and some inspiration to share the true gifts of Christmas with others, check out the video below. I've watched it several times now, and it brings me a great amount of joy every time I view it.
John 16:33-These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
I dare you to watch this video and not be joyful...nevermind, the not be joyful part..."Be of good cheer!"
What a change from the usual Christmas articles. Thanks for highlighting the true gift of Christmas.

Music is the organization of sounds and silences to produce a work that is designed to give pleasure to the listener. Music can be written down in advance or improvised (made up on the spot) but it is always intended to be performed. Classical music is the serious, written music of western countries. Music can be performed by one person, a group or a whole orchestra. It can be sung or played with an instrument. Music can be listened to in its own right or heard as part of the soundtrack to a play, movie or TV programme.
How Stone Age people made a simple flute. A rod of ivory (from a mammoth's tusk) was sawn in half and its middle gouged out using a stone tool. The finger holes were then pierced, and the two halves stuck back together using tree-sap glue.
How Stone Age people made a simple flute
We know little about the origins of music, as none of it was recorded or written down. We do not know who first started to sing a song or make up a tune. The earliest instruments, flutes made of wood, bone or ivory, date back 40,000 years or more.

Ancient instruments have been found in China dating back to 7000 BC, in the Indus Valley of Pakistan and India, and in the Middle East and Egypt, where the god Thoth was said to have invented music. The oldest known songs were written on clay tablets in the Syrian city of Ugarit around 1400 BC. Music was popular in ancient Greece, where musicians plucked a stringed lyre and blew a double reed pipe called an aulos.
Flutes, made from bird bone and mammoth ivory, were discovered in a cave in southern Germany in 2012. Dated at around 43,000 years old, they are the oldest musical instruments known.

EWS Reservation: A Flawed Judgement and Policy – IMPRI Impact and Policy Research Institute
November 11, 2022 Modified date: November 11, 2022
T K Arun
The split ruling of the Supreme Court, endorsing the validity of the 103rd Amendment to the Constitution to create a 10 per cent quota exclusively for the poor among the socially privileged, excluding the poor among the socially disprivileged, is bad in law, deficient in logic and oblivious of alternative designs for affirmative action.
Let us take up the last point first. Two desirable qualities of a policy design for affirmative action are: one, it should not disincentivise striving for excellence; two, it should not reinforce pre-existing perceptions of inferiority. Reservations are a blunt policy instrument that lacks either of these desirable qualities. Yet, reservations work, given time across generations, as shown by the experience of Tamil Nadu, which has had reservations since the 1920s.
Scope for affirmative action
The gap between the qualifying scores of the reserved and general categories in Tamil Nadu is narrow and narrowing further. India's deeply hierarchical society with historically entrenched inequalities and cultural deprivations is better off with reservations for socially and economically disprivileged groups than without them. That said, there is scope to formulate a more nuanced, more effective policy of affirmative action.
Jawaharlal Nehru University used to have an admission policy that assigned handicap points for different categories of deprivation: social, economic and regional. Anyone from a remote corner of India with poor access to educational infrastructure would get the handicap points for regional backwardness.
Those from socially backward backgrounds would get the handicap points for social deprivation and the poor would get handicap points for income deprivation. Those in the intersection of income, social and regional backwardness would get the full complement of handicap points, others would be eligible for one or two kinds of handicap points, and the privileged would compete with zero handicap points.
Nobody thought this system unfair, although some might have grumbled that merit alone should count in admissions.
That system was abused by those who could procure false income and caste certificates. Today, Aadhaar tagging makes false claims of deprivation a life-long risk to reputation. A system based on handicap points for different kinds of deprivation could be designed and implemented today with relatively more integrity than in the past.
But this is not the only or primary kind of affirmative action that ends deprivation and discrimination. Political empowerment of the disprivileged, so that the privileged cannot oppress them directly or using the resources of the state, is the first pre-requisite.
Indian tradition oppresses women
Indian tradition is hierarchical, valorises caste and oppresses women. The religious discourse calls for thorough reform to, for example, rid it of the values of the Manusmriti, which hails the Varna system, celebrates the Brahmin as the lord of all creation and declares women to be unfit for autonomy.
Instead, the discourse could uphold the notion, derived from Advaita or Non-Dualism, of the essential sameness of everyone, which makes seeming difference an illusion.
It is not just Muslims who have to shed customary beliefs and practices that are at odds with democracy; Hindus have to, too, on a much larger scale.
The ongoing consolidation of Hindutva, in contrast, indirectly reinforces the values and prejudices of undemocratic tradition, by glorifying the past, entrenching backward-looking ritual and venerating religious figures who preach the antithesis of democracy, even as it pays lip service to end caste discrimination.
A mobilised, empowered citizenry defending, asserting and expanding their democratic rights is what will realise, in practice, an end to inequality of opportunity. Affirmative action is as effective, in the absence of such a democratic movement, as cough syrup as a cure for cancer of the lungs.
There are other forms of empowerment that have little political traction. Intervention to supplement the nutrition the child receives in its most crucial formative years, from when it is in the mother's womb to the age of three, makes a big difference. Access to clean drinking water and sanitation to prevent the ingestion of intestinal parasites should be seen as measures of social empowerment.
A new experiment pioneered in Bangladesh and being field-tested in other countries shows remarkable success in battling childhood malnutrition with food to boost the health of gut bacteria.
Mental stimulation in the earliest years of a child — being talked to, cared for, constantly challenged with new, varied bits of information, tested for understanding shapes, quantities and angles, listening to music and rhyme, and playing with toys — has a big role in developing cognitive abilities and emotional intelligence.
Children of well-off families tend to receive all this automatically from carers and grandparents, if not from busy parents, while the children of the disprivileged are deprived of nutrition for the body and nutrition for the mind, during the initial seven, critical years of their life, when children should learn to learn, and love to learn, rather than learn stuff. Remedying this would be affirmative action.
Reservation was crucial
Reservations were critical in India's early years when the resources available for education were seriously limited. Those constraints have eased considerably.
The goal now should be to train any young person to attain their potential at any level in any field of their choice — by increasing the number, quality and scope of educational institutions, by democratising access, enhancing the funds available for the purpose, as grants, scholarships, loans, private investment, public-private-partnerships and foreign investment, augmenting budgetary allocations. Simply focusing on slicing the existing pie even finer, instead of expanding the pie, is to fool the people.
Governance in the school system plays a key role in social empowerment. Absentee teachers or teachers who lack qualification or motivation or focus on private tuition, instead of doing their job should be recognised as public enemies. Political patronage of dysfunction in schools must be identified as deep elitism that stifles social mobility.
The present judgment shows no awareness of such dimensions of the problem sought to be addressed via reservations.
The dissenting judges are entirely in the right when they say that keeping the scheduled castes, scheduled tribes and other backward castes outside the ambit of reservations for the poor, although these sections constitute the bulk of the poor, violates the Constitution's prohibition of discrimination.
Relatively few among the upper castes are poor, as compared to SCs, STs and OBCs. All India Debt and Investment Surveys carried out by government agencies clearly demonstrate that the upper castes account for a little over a fifth of the country's households and for more than 40% of the total assets, even as OBCs account for 36% of households and 31% of assets, Scheduled Castes, 18% of households and 7.6% of assets, Scheduled Tribes, 9% of households and 3.7% of assets, and Muslims, 12% of households and 8% of assets (see, for example, Nitin Tagade, Ajaya Naik and Sukhdev Thorat, "Wealth Ownership and Inequality in India: a Socio-Religious Analysis" in Journal of Social Inclusion Studies December 2018, accessible here.
A 10 per cent quota exclusively for the relatively small section of the poor among the upper castes, even as the poor among the Scheduled Castes and Tribes have to contend with the relatively prosperous among them, can be considered another way of privileging those already privileged in socio-cultural terms.
But there could be one ancillary benefit — if you consider it a good thing that the government makes it clear what it thinks of the services of economists, who make poverty in India vanish in a dazzling cloud of statistical brilliance. If the government seriously believed poverty had reliably disappeared, it would not create a quota for the poor, would it?

Last Friday there was a great turn-out at the 1940's Discotheque in Gwdihw. Above are the lovely Siren Sisters - and those dresses are most definitely from Tara Starlet if I'm not very much mistaken!
My friend Laura and I - the dress I was wearing is a peach '40s number I picked up at the vintage fair in cheltenham, and the photo doesn't do justice to my hair which actually had a victory roll in it, after about 15 minutes of teasing and spraying!!
These are the only snaps that are presentable. I had a bit of trouble with my camera - it's fairly new and I haven't thoroughly tested it out in low-light situations, so most of photos were terribly blurry! There were lots of professional photographers there so the moment their snaps are released, I'll put up some more.
All in all, I had a great time and even did some fancy footwork with my Beloved - for once we didn't stamp on each others' toes!

Stars of David in art
On the website of Frank Meisler, an Israeli sculptor who has a studio in the Old City of Jaffa I found several Stars of David.
Israeli painter Nir Hod's "I Swear" shows a female soldier in the image of the artist swear on a bible and a gun with a false Star of David unit tag on her shoulder and a pendant with a Star of David in her hand.. In "Love Story" there's an Israeli officer with a Star of David on his arm in the image of the artist who's embracing a nurse who is also in the image of the artist. In the background there's a war.
In the 80th Moshe Gershoni made a painting titled "Mizmor Ledavid" (a hymn to David) with a black Star of David.
In 1998 Eitan Bushery and Tamar Shalev made a painting for the 50th Israeli Independence Day where the Star of David is broken into two separate triangles on the background of a fire that is going to burn it.

You will conduct secondary, data-driven research on development initiatives that have done well at reaching marginalized, underserved communities, before spending time in the field, conducting in-depth interviews with stakeholders. After your field research trip, you are going to generate a case study, shining a light on the tools for success behind humanitarian and social services around the globe.
How are case studies pitched and chosen?
Each Reach Project researcher comes up with an idea for a potential case study that illustrates reach. Throughout various pitching sessions, you will pitch your case study to the rest of the team and together we will ask questions and discuss the merits of each case.
At our Reach Project retreat in September, the top four case studies are selected by vote. Once case studies are selected, you may be assigned to any of the case study teams. Teams are not assembled based on discipline and you will work with graduate and/or undergraduate researchers with a variety of academic backgrounds. Each team of students will be assigned a lead, who is either a faculty member or staff researcher at U of T.
Where your fieldwork takes place is going to depend on which case study team you are placed on. So far, Reach Project researchers have travelled to Brazil, Thailand, Rwanda, India, Jordan and South Africa.
No. The Reach Project pays for your travel costs, including flights, accommodation, vaccinations* and visas. We also provide a per diem to cover expenses that occur on the ground.
*Students are expected to have health insurance and travel insurance. The Reach Project will cover the difference between the actual vaccination cost and the amount covered by your health insurance.
This is an unpaid research position. Please also note, that we can't provide academic credit for work as a Reach Project student researcher.
During the academic year, you will meet with your case study team on a bi-weekly basis. These meetings typically take place during business hours, but meetings can also take place in the morning, evening, and occasionally on weekends. The workload will increase as we approach fieldwork and have to coordinate with participants, develop a schedule, develop and refine our interview instruments, and sort out logistics. This busy time period will overlap with your final exams and assignments in the winter term, so researchers will need to possess excellent time management skills.
Fieldwork takes place during April, May, June or July 2019, so you have to be willing to travel for one to two weeks during those months.
Due to the demanding workload, and the requirement for ongoing communication among teammates, we unfortunately can't accept researchers who will be on exchange.
Reach Project case studies are not intended for publication in academic journals. Your team will prepare written reports that are made available online for free. Reach Project students can collaborate on developing a manuscript for a journal after their case study report is completed. However, the development of a manuscript for an academic journal is not a component of the Reach Project program.
Who started the Reach Project?
The Reach Project was founded by Joseph Wong, the Munk School Ralph and Roz Halbert Professor of Innovation and associate vice-president and vice-provost, international student experience.
Learn more about the Reach Project here, and watch Joe's TEDx Talk on "How to get 'stuff' to people".
Can't find what you're looking for? Or maybe you would like to talk to one of our alums to learn more about their experience with the Reach Project. Please send an email to reachproject.munkschool@utoronto.ca.

Q: Dropdown does not collapse when the option is selected in angular Hi all could anyone help me with the below error please
i am having problem with the dropdown menu collapse i can select the option but the dropdown does not collapse when the option is selected and when i collapse it manually it gives me the below error
ERROR

core.js:4197 ERROR TypeError: this._documentClickListener is not a function

I have this function which select two different dataset

isFemaleSelected: boolean = true;

  callMe(option: number) {
    if (option === 1) {
      this.AreaChartComponentRef.data = areaChartDataFemale;
      this.AreaChartComponentRef.updateChart();
      this.isFemaleSelected = true;
    } else {
      // this.isFemaleSelected = false;
      this.AreaChartComponentRef.data = areaChartDataMale;
      this.AreaChartComponentRef.updateChart();
      this.isFemaleSelected = false;
    }

Html code
When (click)="callMe(1) one is selected it displays the female and (click)="callMe(2) displays Male

WESTPORT'S Sacred Heart School will represent FAI Schools this weekend in the Rod Houston Cup for the first time ever as Lilleshall National Sports Centre in Shropshire plays host.
The Mayo crew qualified for the prestigious event following a dramatic victory in the FAI Schools National Cup competition back in early May in Dublin. They defeated Loreto Secondary School, Kilkenny 4-3 in a nail biting penalty shoot-out after neither side could break the deadlock even after 20 minutes of extra time in their First Year Girls Cup clash.
Maggie Chambers, Laura Moran, Aenea Breslin and Aoife Staunton clinically despatched Westport's first four spot kicks while Chiara Cardillo, Amy Clifford and Aisling Downey kept the Kilkenny side in the hunt converting their penalties.
Then skipper Katie McNea turned the tide in favour of Westport when she produced two top class saves to keep out efforts from Meaghann O'Mahony and Orla Kenny and send the sizeable and enthusiastic travelling fans from Mayo into wild celebrations. Hopefully the travelling party will have more to celebrate on Sunday afternoon following the three day encounter.
It was a first national title in ten years for the Western school so the new management duo of Fiona Casey and Anne Marie O'Malley will be hoping to build on the strong foundations left by Seamus Mac Eachmharcaigh following his sterling contribution over the years.
Westport will be keenly watched by the opposition in this campaign with the reigning Champions, hailing from the Republic of Ireland. Presentation Secondary School, Kilkenny had a phenomenal tournament twelve months previous with the Cats notching up 32 goals in three games, only conceding twice to lift the title in remarkable fashion. In 2016, Ursuline College in Sligo were runners up to eventual winners St. Ivo School. Can the Westport crew emulate their good run of form?
As host nation, England will have two representative teams in the tournament, namely a much fancied St. Ivo School, Huntingdon and the impressive Bohunt School, Wokingham. Also competing against the Mayo outfit will be Welsh starlets Ysgol Gymraeg Bro Morgannwg.
The three day event will kick off at 4.00pm tomorrow afternoon (Friday) with an all English affair as St. Ivo School take on Wokingham's Bohunt School while at 5.15pm Sacred Heart School take on newbie's Ysgol Gymraeg Bro Morgannwg who hail from Barry.
Saturday morning's fixtures will see a 10.00am start for Westport as they do battle with St. Ivo's while Bohunt entertain their Welsh counterparts Ysgol Gymraeg Bro Morgannwg.
The final series of matches on Sunday will see all teams kick off at 10.30am as Sacred Heart School field against the Wokingham girls and the St. Ivo's stars play off against Ysgol Gymraeg Bro Morgannwg.
Title sponsor, Mr. Rod Houston is a retired School teacher and was President of the Scottish Schools FA for many years. Rod also held the position of Treasurer and Secretary of the Schools Association Football International Board (SAFIB) and is honoured to be associated with this competition that promotes girls football to a larger audience. This competition will be run similar to the Allen McKinstry Cup that has been in existence since 2008 which caters for the Boys Home Nations Champions.
The Westport side showed great class last season in the National Cup campaign and will relish the opportunity to showcase their talents on a bigger stage. FAI Schools wish Sacred Heart School every success in the tournament as they kick off proceedings tomorrow afternoon.


The Ministry for Social Dialogue, Consumer Affaira and Civil Liberties has launched the White Paper regarding the Amendments to the VO Act. The scope of the amendments to the Voluntary Organizations Act and related legislation is principally to address the difficulties which have arisen in the interpretation and application of the Act and ancillary legislation in the light of practice since its coming into force in 2007. Important amendments relate to the resolution of issues which arose with the Church Authorities in Malta in relation to religious organizations, the introduction pf public benefit as one of the tests for the treatment as a Voluntary organization, a more detailed treatment of the definition of "non-profit making", rules on mandatory enrolment and notifications, rules on the prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing in the non-profit sector, clearer rules on the ability of Voluntary Organizations to engage in trade and the strenghtening of the powers of the Commissioner in relation to defaulting organizations. These amendments are supplemented by consequential amendments to other laws in particular the Civil Code, mainly its Second Schedule and the Public Collections Act.
a) Where there is an issue with a specific Article in any one of the Bills, a direct reference to the name of the Bill and the specific Article is made, and comments about what needs to be added or removed are presented as brief and direct as possible.
b) Where there is an issue that the Bills are silent or are too generic about, the concern should first be explained and ideally formulated in terms of a concrete proposal.
This consultation ends on 6th July 2016.
In the coming weeks the Malta Council for the Voluntary Sector will be holding a consultative seminar for VOs to discuss the White Paper. The date and venue will be advised in the coming days.

Policy analysis of third party electronic coupons for public transit fares
Joseph Y.J. Chow
Center for Interacting Urban Networks
Mobile technologies are generating new business models for urban transport systems, as is evident from recent startups cropping up from the private sector. Public transport systems can make more use of mobile technologies than just for measuring system performance, improving boarding times, or for analyzing travel patterns. A new transaction model is proposed for public transport systems where travelers are allowed to pre-book their fares and trade that demand information to private firms. In this public-private partnership model, fare revenue management is outsourced to third party private firms such as big box retail or large planned events (such as sports stadiums and theme parks), who can issue electronic coupons to travelers to subsidize their fares. This e-coupon pricing model is analyzed using marginal cost theory for the transit service and shown to be quite effective for monopolistic coupon rights, particularly for demand responsive transit systems that feature high cost fares, non-commute travel purposes, and a closed access system with existing pre-booking requirements. However, oligopolistic scenarios analyzed using game theory and network economics suggest that public transport agencies need to take extreme care in planning and implementing such a policy. Otherwise, they risk pushing an equivalent tax on private firms or disrupting the urban economy and real estate values while increasing ridership.

To make a video game stand above the rest there are many aspects that counts. Over the many hours spent with a game, opinions may change slightly, but there are few key design elements that gives a general idea of what to expect.
There are more to making a game stand out than just some key points, however, without hitting on these important factors it can be guaranteed that a game will not be nearly as great as it could have been. If a game is designed with some of these principles in mind, it is sure to be a massive hit.
These are the most important elements of game design to look for.
There are games that leaves a deep, lasting impression on a gamer creating a feel of themselves being in the world. A video game with a good Immersion makes you forget that you are playing a game and makes you feel like you are in a living, breathing world. The key is for the developer to find a way to restore the immersion after a break and not use mechanics too much.
The most underrated part of a game is the Music. A good soundtrack can literally change the feeling of a game. Music helps put the player in the right frame of minds for whatever challenge is ahead. Music is usually something we gloss over;taking it away from a game would make it all feel naked.
Talk about video game music, the epic Mario has got the most iconic music that even people who do not play video games can easily identify it. Even all the way back in the 8-bit era, it was this music that set the tone for the game.
This one is the catch, in order to keep a player coming back to a game, there has to be something about it that gets them a little addicted. There are needs to be something, otherwise players will move on to the next big thing quickly. With lots of factors that make a game addictive it all comes down to character progression.
Games like Call of Duty, World of Warcraft and Diablo are some of the most addictive games because they make you care about your character. You want to keep going back and levelling up or getting that new piece of gear.
Even though visuals are a little overrated, they are still an incredibly important part of game design. Appealing the masses without a sharp graphics and a good art style is going to be really hard.
It is not a surprise that every video game review touches on the games graphics and art styles.It might not be the most important thing, but it still is an important part of video game design.
There are more basic aspects of a game that needs to be touched on for a game to work. It needs to be fun, the controls need to work and the mechanics need to be functional. Those are considered to be fundamentals. These are the other aspects that are important after the basics are addressed, and without these, a game will never reach a higher level.
So there it is. And if ever you want to get your hands on some of the good old Games , you can sell old video games online with us for a good deal or buy old video games. When it comes to Video game buyback we are the best you could find.

Home Sleight (Parcel 918) was a large field, rising steadily from south to north, originally within the great East Field of the Manor of Kingston. The word sleight, also spelt slaight or slite, derives from the Old English slœget meaning a sheep pasture. The 'home' part of the name means it was the sheep pasture by the home, in this case being Little Lyde Farm. Certainly in 1863 (see below), and probably much earlier, it was known as Barn Close - presumably because of such a structure once built on it.
At the time of the 1846 Tithe Apportionment Home Sleight was owned by Sarah Rose and let to Charles Marsh. It was used as pasture for grazing livestock and measured 10a 0r 0p.
A small portion of the field was partitioned off and was in separate ownership. It was listed as 'In Home Sleight' (Parcel 918a). This was owned William Hawker Helyar and also let to Charles Marsh. Measuring 1a 3r 0p, it was also used as pasture.
Home Sleight was bounded on the south by Lyde Lane where it veered northeast (now the line of Vale Road) after passing Little Lyde Farm. To the east it was bounded by a field access track, to the north it was bounded by Hackett's Orchard (Parcel 919), Sleight Plot (Parcel 920) and the southeast corner of Lower Sleight (Parcel 926). To the west it was bounded by Spring Close (Parcel 964) and Little Lyde Farm (Parcel 965).
By the time of the 1946 aerial photograph seen below, Home Sleight remained an open field in the junction of Lyde Lane and the field access track running north - both visible in the photograph.
In the late 1960s / early 1970s Meadway, today's Lyde Road, was extended from the point where Lyde Lane veered off northeast at Little Lyde Farm. The new road extension ran through Home Sleight from its southwest corner, then curving to run north and exiting Home Sleight at the centre of its northern boundary.
Today the former Home Sleight encompasses part of Howard Road Park in the southwest, houses and gardens of the eastern end of both Arundel Road and Howard Road to the west. In the east it includes all the houses and gardens between Lyde Road and Oxford Road from Vale Road in the south, almost as far as Belvedere Road.

James Albert Wales (30 August 1852 in Clyde, Ohio – 6 December 1886 in New York City) was a caricaturist. After leaving school, he apprenticed himself to a wood engraver in Toledo, but soon afterward went to Cincinnati, and thence to Cleveland, where he drew cartoons for the Leader during the presidential canvass of 1872. After working for some time in Chicago and Cleveland, he went to New York in 1873, and two years later secured an engagement on an illustrated newspaper. Afterward he was employed on Puck, in which some of his best works appeared. In 1881 he went abroad, and after his return he became one of the founders of Judge, and was for some time its chief cartoonist.

He specialized in antisemitic attacks ridiculing Jews.  In 1882 he wrote about Jews in Judge:

They and their money already rule Europe, and it is only a question of time when they will do the same in our own country, and the world at large.

He returned to Puck in 1885, and continued his attacks on Jews. Wales was the only prominent caricaturist of the newer school who was born in America. He was clever at portraiture, and produced some excellent cartoons, according to contemporary scholarship.

Q: Create a flexbox with 3 items in it that are equal of width I am trying to create a flexbox with 3 items in it that are equal of width. The problem is if I add padding or gap or both. It breaks (only 2 columns)! I do not want to use grid. It needs to be flex!
This is the Html and css

.flex-container {
    display: flex;
    flex-wrap: wrap;
    gap: 1rem;
}
.color {
    background-color: limegreen;
}
.spacing {
    padding: 1em;
}
.flex-item {
    flex: calc(100% / 3);
}

A: Just add following to .flex-item
flex: calc((100% - 2rem) / 3);
box-sizing: border-box;

- 2rem is becuase you have gap between first and second and second and third element.
Thus, your code should be as follows:

.flex-container {
    display: flex;
    flex-wrap: wrap;
    gap: 1rem;
}
.color {
    background-color: limegreen;
}
.spacing {
    padding: 1em;
}
.flex-item {
  flex: calc((100% - 2rem) / 3);
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

1

And if you want that the last two divs take only first and second column use then width instead of flex in .flex-item.
.flex-item {
  width: calc((100% - 2rem) / 3);
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

Thus something as follows:

.flex-container {
    display: flex;
    flex-wrap: wrap;
    gap: 1rem;
}
.color {
    background-color: limegreen;
}
.spacing {
    padding: 1em;
}
.flex-item {
  width: calc((100% - 2rem) / 3);
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

A: There are 2 things you need to do:

*

*Change the box-sizing of the flex-item to include the paddings by using: box-sizing: border-box

*Include the gap in the calculations. I recommend you to use a CSS-Variable for the gap: calc((100% - (2 * var(--gap))) / 3)

:root {
  --gap: 1rem;
}

.flex-container {
  display: flex;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
  gap: var(--gap);
}

.color {
  background-color: limegreen;
}

.spacing {
  padding: 1em;
}

.flex-item {
  box-sizing: border-box;
  flex: calc((100% - (2 * var(--gap))) / 3);
}

.span-2 {
  flex: calc(((100% - (2 * var(--gap))) / 3) * 2 + var(--gap));
}

A: Make the padding/margin in an element inside the .flex-item

.flex-container {
  display: flex;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
}

.color {
  background-color: limegreen;
}

.spacing {
  margin: 1em;
}

.flex-item {
  flex: calc(100% / 3);
}

A: You can simply forbid padding from adding to the total width by adding this css
.flex-item {
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

Donald Trump calls for 'total' ban on Muslims entering United States
Republican presidential contender Donald Trump said on Dec. 7 that he was in favor of a 'total and complete' shutdown of Muslims entering the United States. (C-SPAN)

National reporter covering politics
Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump called Monday for a "total and complete" ban on Muslims entering the United States, barring followers of the world's fastest-growing religion because he considers the faith rooted in hatred and violence.
The proposal — which was quickly denounced by other candidates from both parties — marks the latest escalation of the virulent anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant rhetoric that has fueled his unlikely candidacy. It also came less than 24 hours after President Obama urged tolerance in an Oval Office address, saying the fight against terrorists should not "be defined as a war between America and Islam."
But at a rally Monday night in South Carolina, Trump received a boisterous standing ovation as he shared the idea, telling the crowd that a ban is "common sense" and that his Muslim friends agree with him.
"We have no choice," he said to cheers. "We have no choice. We have no choice."
Party leaders have worried for months that Trump's divisive rhetoric could poison their party, even as it has allowed him to maintain a commanding lead over the divided GOP field since summer. Trump has broadly described illegal immigrants as violent criminals, called for the immediate deportation of the 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the United States and, at a recent rally, seemed to condone an assault on a Black Lives Matter protester.

Many legal scholars said such a plan would violate both U.S. and international law and would never be allowed by the courts, while leaders of Islamic groups called the idea outrageous.
"One has to wonder what Donald Trump will say next as he ramps up his anti-Muslim bigotry," said Ibrahim Hooper, national communications director at the Council on American-Islamic Relations. "Where is there left for him to go? Are we talking internment camps? Are we talking the final solution to the Muslim question? I feel like I'm back in the 1930s."
Trump's proposal came in a statement issued Monday calling for a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on."
He said in the statement that "it is obvious to anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension."
"Where this hatred comes from and why we will have to determine," he continued. "Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life."
[Donald Trump's plan to ban Muslims is based on a very shoddy poll]
Like most of the ideas Trump has floated, the proposal is both far-reaching and vague, raising numerous questions that his aides declined to answer Monday: Which Muslims would be included in the ban? How would they be identified? Would the U.S. bar American-born citizens who practice Islam and are returning from an overseas trip? What about holders of green cards visiting family overseas, or wealthy Middle Eastern businessmen journeying to the United States to finalize a deal?
In San Bernardino, Calif., and across the country, many are taking issue with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's call for the U.S. to ban all Muslims from entering the country. (Reuters)
Trump's campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, told the Associated Press that the ban would apply to "everybody" but did not elaborate. Later, Trump said in an interview on Fox News that the ban would not apply to Muslim members of the military or "people living in the country."
On Twitter, Christian Broadcasting Network correspondent David Brody wrote that Trump was the only candidate with the "bravery" to call for a ban on Muslim immigration, and he predicted it would "give him a boost with evangelicals."
But Jonathan Turley, a George Washington University expert on constitutional law, said such a ban "would not only violate international law but do so by embracing open discrimination against one religion. It would make the United States a virtual pariah among nations.''
Muslims make up nearly a quarter of the world's population, and that portion is projected to hit 30 percent by 2050, at which point Muslims would be nearly as numerous as Christians, according to a Pew Research Center report issued in April. Between 80,000 to 90,000 Muslims immigrate to the United States each year, according to a 2011 report by Pew.
Targeted bans on specific groups of immigrants are not unprecedented in U.S. history. In the early 20th century, the United States passed a series of strict quotas on foreign arrivals, culminating in the immigration acts of 1917 and 1924. There were no visas for anyone residing in a designated "Asiatic Barred Zone." That included most of the Muslim world, from the Arabian Peninsula to Indonesia. Those quotas were lifted by the Immigration Act of 1965.
Since last month's terrorist attacks in Paris, Trump has called for surveillance of mosques and barring Syrian refugees, and he has suggested he would consider establishing a database to track Muslims. In the past, Trump has also suggested that Obama was not born in the United States and hinted that the president could be Muslim rather than Christian.
Trump's standing in most polls has grown as he has made increasingly harsh rhetoric and policies the focus of his campaign, prompting other GOP candidates to follow or ratchet up their own statements. Every Republican presidential candidate has called for a pause in accepting Syrian refugees into the country, with Sen. Ted Cruz (Tex.) and former Florida governor Jeb Bush saying Christian refugees should still be allowed in; Trump said at the time it would be impossible to implement because it is difficult to prove a person's religion.
Most of Trump's GOP rivals issued statements opposing Trump's idea. Bush wrote Monday on Twitter that Trump is "unhinged," while Ohio Gov. John Kasich said the proposed ban "is just more of the outrageous divisiveness that characterizes his every breath." New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie called it "a ridiculous position," and Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.) tweeted: "His habit of making offensive and outlandish statements will not bring Americans together." Cruz said in an NBC interview that "there are millions of peaceful Muslims around the world."
Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (S.C.) said Trump's escalating rhetoric about Islam endangers U.S. soldiers and diplomats operating in the Muslim world: "The effects of this statement are far-reaching."
On the Democratic side, front-runner Hillary Clinton and her two main challengers, Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vt.) and former Maryland governor Martin O'Malley, all condemned Trump, with O'Malley calling him "a fascist demagogue."
Clinton's campaign is fundraising off of Trump's latest statement, circulating an email from Clinton's longtime top aide Huma Abedin that reads, in part: "I'm a proud Muslim — but you don't have to share my faith to share my disgust."
At the heart of Trump's statement was a questionable poll commissioned by the Center for Security Policy, a conservative group founded by Frank Gaffney, a veteran of the Reagan administration who accused the George W. Bush administration of helping Islamists infiltrate the government and who has been identified as an anti-Muslim extremist by the Southern Poverty Law Center. Gaffney did not respond to a request for comment.
"Mr. Trump is basing his very un-American proposal on the bogus data provided by a well-known and unhinged individual, who's been rejected by conservatives," said Suhail Khan, who worked in the George W. Bush administration and has been singled out by Gaffney. "It's all very un-American. Our country was based on religious freedom. The framers specifically included a ban on religious tests to seek and hold higher office."
Americans' fears of Muslim extremists grew last year following a series of high-profile beheadings by the Islamic State, according to a Pew Research Center survey. Half said Islam is more likely than other religions to encourage violence among its believers, the highest in surveys since 2002. Views that Islam encourages violence peaked among white evangelical Protestants, Republicans, and those 65 and older.

A star cluster is a gravitationally bound collection of stars that formed from the same gas cloud. There are two main types. Globular clusters are found in the haloes of galaxies and contain from tens of thousands to millions of ancient stars crowded into a more or less spherical volume of space. Open clusters inhabit the disks of galaxies and contain up to a few hundred relatively young stars in a looser arrangement from which stars may occasionally escape. Looser still are associations.
