Anthony HubbardSenior Coordinator, Business & Legal AffairsSONY Music EntertainmentNew York, NY
Before there was social media, you had Big Ced, a gatherer of people. He is more than a promoter or socialite. He hand picked people he liked or felt had some value and invited them to local bars, restaurants, night clubs, sporting events and various other places they probably had never been.
His ability to bring ground breaking thinkers, music artists, athletes, directors, models and moguls together is quite unique. Even in 2016, he continues to collect a eclectic group of movers and shakers.
I imagine he believes in you, before you believe in yourself.
He is a pioneering writer on the internet, before the word blogger and continues to use the platform to make social change.

Q: git fetch https://url-to-repo :git-branch not working I have a git repo with master and branch1.
on branch1- I cloned in two locations and I have to reset it to one previous commit in one location and then force push it to remote and fetch it to another location and reset it. I have to do it in some python script with subprocess. As I am able to reset in location1 and force push to remote, but I am not able to fetch it in location2 with the access token in https URL. If I could give credentials directly it works fine but not with access token URL.
Tried: git fetch https://<access-token>@repo-url :origin/branch1
which outputs

*

*branch            HEAD       -> FETCH_HEAD

but origin/branch1 didn't go to the commit where the remote head is there, so I am not able to reset that specific commit.
while:
  git fetch
  prompt - username <entered>
  prompt - password <entered>

makes origin/branch1 to the commit where I want and then I able to reset to it.
I expect some way to run git fetch command (can include credentials or access-token) and fetch the remote changes on branch1 so that I can reset it. As I am running from python subprocess, I couldn't provide credentials for the prompt.

A:
git fetch https://<access-token>@repo-url :origin/branch1

The arguments to git fetch are:

*

*the name of a remote ... or, if you're going to be stubborn, you can use a raw URL here instead of the name of a remote, and that's what you've done;

*any number of refspecs.  You have used one refspec, specifically :origin/branch1.

Refspecs have a general form of src:dst, where the src part is the name of a reference—e.g., a branch or tag name—found in the source repository, and dst is the name found in your own repository.  (This may be prefixed by a force-flag +.)  In this case you omitted the source and provided only a destination.  Since you're using git fetch, the other Git is the source.  So here, you have not provided the name of the branch in the source repository and git fetch will not attempt to guess.
If you wish to use their branch1 as the source of your origin/branch1, provide a correct refspec.  It's wise to use full reference names as well:
git fetch <url> refs/heads/branch1:refs/remotes/origin/branch1

for example.
A standard fetch, using a remote name instead of a URL, obtains the default refspec from the remote.name.fetch setting.  For a remote named origin this is typically:
+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

so that git fetch origin obtains all of their branch names (refs/heads/*), and uses those to forcibly update all of your corresponding remote-tracking names (refs/remotes/origin/*, with the * being filled in appropriately automatically).  If the reason you're providing a raw URL, rather than the remote name origin, is that you need to insert the access token, you can do this and extract the remote.origin.fetch setting.  For example:
p = subprocess.run(["git", "config", "--get-all", "remote.origin.fetch"],
    capture_output=True, text=True)
# for python 3.6 or earlier, use
#   stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, universal_newlines=True

p.check_returncode()
if p.stderr != "":
    ... do something here ...
refspecs = p.stdout.rstrip('\n').split('\n')

You can now add refspecs (a list of strings) to your git fetch arguments.

Alternatively, if you must do this often, you might just add a remote that has the desired access token in it.  Note that you can configure the fetch refspec of an alternative remote to overwrite refs/remotes/origin/* even if the new remote is named something other than origin.  For instance:
git remote add tokenized-origin <url-with-token>
git config remote.tokenized-origin.fetch '+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*'

and then just:
git fetch tokenized-origin

whenever you want to do this update using the URL-with-embedded-token.

Is Soft Minded and Feminized Europe No Longer Able to Fight Back?
P 01.03.2016 U Konrad Stachnio
What is happening in Europe nowadays has all the signs of overthrowing the State. In fact, it is almost a textbook example. First, we have destabilization, then crisis and so called normalization. In my opinion, at this point we are still at the level of destabilization, then we will go into a crisis which signs are increasingly visible. They are even seen by the sponsor of 'grassroots democracy' movements, George Soros, who has already been calling to cooperation between the EU and Russia.
However, you do not need to be a multimillionaire with political prerogatives to know that something wrong is going on in Europe. Even the heads of the EU countries has begun to express their growing discontent.
'The Roman Empire showed us what we all know: the great empires fall if the boundaries are not well protected. Stop the migrants – we need to stem the flow of migrants coming to Europe, we cannot maintain the current level,' said Dutch Prime Minister, Mark Rutte, to a small group of journalists from Brussels, later he was also quoted by the Financial Times.
It should be added that the Dutch government made the subject of migration one of its priorities during the EU presidency in the first half of 2016.
The issue of closing borders to refugees is not so simple. In healthy societies, the number of employed is much higher than the non-working population (i.e. pensioners, mothers raising children, etc.). In the States in 70s. this ratio was 4:1 and it was a healthy level. Now this level in Italy and Germany is only 2:1. In the United Kingdom, France, Spain and Hungary the level is about 3:1. In the US, Romania, Russia and Poland the level is more than 3:1. It is difficult to maintain the pension and health care systems for the elderly part of the population when the ratio is 2: 1.
The sign of a crisis in a textbook style is the fact that after the destabilization, the crisis which branches to a civil war and external interference, comes.
Right now we have in Europe a growing conflict between supporters and opponents of the refugees. Between Pegida and so-called the left wing. Between Muslim and their opponents. A feature of destabilization is also a total disintegration of State services. If you look at the incompetence of e.g. the German Police in relation to offenses committed in Germany, such as those in Cologne, it is hard to find a better example of State services disintegration.
Another example of destabilization is that people organize themselves into self-defence groups because of the lack of an effective defence of the State. We are currently experiencing that in several European countries.
These are just a few indications of crisis aggravation, that can lead to a civil war in Europe, especially if this lead to the creation of mass 'Islamist movement' in Europe, something like the 'Arab spring in Europe'.
The second element of the crisis that emerges after the destabilization is the interference from the outside which we have to deal with right now. ISIS sends to Europe its cells and smuggles weapons including the chemical and biological ones. What is more, ISIS, via the Internet or in person, recruits new members to its cells in Europe.
After this stage we have time for so-called normalization, namely the establishment of a new order and get rid of all those who have helped us to stir up the fire so far. In this case they are so-called liberals who contribute to the disintegration of Europe with all their strength. In my opinion, ideology that could lead to the collapse of Europe is precisely liberalism.
'Islam removes these problems and then there will be enough money for procreation, health and all the rest. Now you live in a system-oriented for exploiting the human. The only way to survive on this planet will be make it all illegal. The introduction of Islam and Sharia'. Said Imam Choudary.
Is this an antidote for Europe's humanitarian suggestions and actions express by such representatives of the so-called West like Bill Gates.
'Software substitute, whether it's drivers and waiters or nurses … progressing … With time, technology will reduce the need for jobs, especially in the lower end of the skill set […] In 20 years, the demand for labour for many basic skills will be much lower. I do not think that people have this in their mental model,' said Gates speaking before the Washington economic think tank of the American Enterprise Institute.
Given the above, was it the awareness that a large proportion of people with so-called 'basic skills' will not be able to get work in the future being superseded by 'software substitute' that inspired him to philanthropy to cut population by 10-15%?
In this context, his actions may soon acquire the status of humanitarian action- relieving the poor people with the so-called 'basic skills' from the unequal and lost competition with 'software substitute'. It should be added that most of the refugees have 'basic skills.'
However, it seems that the revolution of the masses without work is not the only thing that is waiting for us in the nearest future. As you can see, some people try to plan in detail the future of our 'grassroots movements.'
One of the think-tanks of the United Nations, called Tellus Institute, has described for the United Nations the whole plan to implement a global, grassroots civic movement, stating in its report that such a movement is necessary to create social acceptance towards global government which is being created.
'The model of expanding circle' predicts a gradual process of organizational development, starting from a relatively small group of committed people supported by loosely linked network of people and organizations. In pursuing its activities, the initial circle will develop strategies for expanding into the next circle, a pattern which will be duplicated at each stage. In this way, the organization will periodically stop to evaluate, adjust and reorganize for greater circle and to improve the program.'
'We have created expanding Circle, a new organized effort designed to support the formation of a global civil movement. Instead of a rigid plan, TWC strategy assumes an increase in successive waves, adapting to changing circumstances, including development and diversity.'
A serious problem to run process of destabilisation, crisis and normalization of Eastern Europe is still its faith or the irrational element which is the hardest to break conquering the State. For this reason the Eastern European countries, where the Christian faith is still relatively strong, become at least for the time being Safe Haven for European women.
Europe and indeed the whole world is in a very awkward situation because we have two aggressive and clashing approaches to the future of our planet. One represented by Islamic extremists.
'Now you live in a system-oriented for exploiting the human. The only way to survive on this planet will be make it all illegal. The introduction of Islam and Sharia.'
'There will be enough money for procreation, health and all the rest.'
On the other hand, we have an approach of billionaires, like Bill Gates, who push their solution for 10% – 15% of the population, calling it a 'really good job.' Perhaps the popularity of all Islamic extremism results from awareness of this choice. And which way do you choose? Anyway, feminized men in Western Europe, who in protest against the rape of women in Cologne dress up in skirts, will certainly not be those who are able to locate threats from Islamists or from this or another 'solutions', which I've mentioned earlier, not to mention posing these challenges.

Mick's Trip Down Memory Lane
Join us as Coach Mick takes a trip down memory lane to the inaugural days of Triathlon in Ireland and his recollections of the start of his love for the sport over 30 years ago. ⭐ "Throwback to the 80's, and a new crazy sport called triathlon was born. After a conversation between a long distance swimmer, cyclist and runner, each claiming that theirs was the toughest sport, they came up with the mad notion of doing them back to back, and so it happened. It came to these shores with the first triathlon taking place in Skerries in 1983, and numbers participating grew quickly. Probably the biggest and most prestigious event on the Irish calendar, the NCF (North Connacht Farmers) sponsored All Ireland Triathlon took place in Rosses Point in Sligo from the mid 80's. This was an absolute brilliant and amazing event, consisting of a 1.9k swim along the full length of Rosses Point strand, a 90k cycle around the foot of Benbulbin and through Yeats country, and finishing with a 21k run taking

Hi, I found the perfect scope... but it doesn't export to the U.S. Can you help me find other options?
I want a scope with numerical indicators on the reticle.
March doesn't appear to export to the USA, which is where I am located.
Does anyone know of any similar scopes with numbered reticles that are available in the US, or a scope kit that would allow me to insert a reticle with numerical indicators into an existing scope?
They are not inexpensive, but you can get them in the U.S.
Are you buying just for a reticle with numbers? If so, look around, there are lots of reticle with numbers.
They do export to the US. I have two of them. I love those scopes.
I have the scope in question. They certainly import to the U.S.

Q: Find a model and a non-model of a theory $T=\{\mathtt{(∀x)¬E(x, x),(∀x)(∀y)(E(x, y)→E(y, x)),(∀x)(∃y)ϕ(x, y)}\}$ over language $L$ where $L=(E)$ Find a model and a non-model of a theory
$$\mathtt{T} = \{\mathtt{(∀x)¬E(x, x), (∀x)(∀y)(E(x, y) → E(y, x)), (∀x)(∃y)ϕ(x, y)}\}$$
over the language $\mathtt{L}$ where $\mathtt{L}=\mathtt{(E)}$.
$(\mathtt{E(x, y)}$ means in a graph that "the vertices $\mathtt{x}$ and $\mathtt{y}$ are adjacent" or "the vertices $\mathtt{x}$ and $\mathtt{y}$ are neighbors"$)$
By a non-model of $\mathtt{T}$, we mean a structure of the same language that is not a model of $\mathtt{T}$.
Can anyone help me understanding the question, and hint a approach to solve it?

A: A model of $T$ is a set $X$ together with some specified set $E^X \subseteq X\times X$ such that all of the statements written in $T$ are true under that interpretation.
The first statement in $T$ is $(\forall x)\neg E(x, x)$.  Thus to have a model of $T$ you will need, in particular, it to be true that for every $x \in X$ the pair $(x, x)$ is not in $E^X$ (i.e., the relation $E^X$ must be antireflexive).  On it's own that's not enough: You need to find a set $X$ and a relation $E^X$ where all three of your statements in $T$ are true (I assume that in the third statement the $\varphi$ should be an $E$, otherwise I don't know what it means).
To find a non-model of $T$ you need a set $Y$ and a set $E^Y \subseteq Y \times Y$ such that at least one statement in $T$ is not true about $(Y, E^Y)$.

A: I take it that $T=\{\mathtt{(∀x)¬E(x, x),(∀x)(∀y)(E(x, y)→E(y, x)),(∀x)(∃y)E(x, y)}\}$.
All you have to do is to exhibit a graph, $(V,E)$ say, that satisfies:

*

*$(∀x)¬E(x, x)$ i.e. there is no edge from a vertex to itself.

*$(∀x)(∀y)(E(x, y)→E(y, x))$ i.e. the relation $E$ is symmetrical.

*$(∀x)(∃y)E(x, y)$ i.e. any vertex is connected to some vertex by an edge.

I leave it to you to show that the graph $(V,E)$ where $V = \{v_1, \ v_2\}$ and $E=\{(v_1, v_2), \ (v_2, v_1)\}$ is a model of $T$.

An Ibiza DJ Is Being Accused Of A Massive Money Laundering Scheme
byJoseph C. Stranzl
Photo / Mikaela Jav Twitter
Mikaela Jav received roughly $19.6 million from a controversial source
Mikaela Jav is an extremely popular resident DJ in Ibiza who is known for her popular 'Mikaela & Friends' parties which began back in 2015. Through these parties, Mikaela was able to build her image and her social media following considerably. Mikaela's social media posts reflected her lavish lifestyle, a lifestyle that attracted the attention of the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) and the Transparency International UK chapter, who launched an investigative report against Mikaela.
Mikaela Jav's real name is Izzat Khanim Javadova who is also the cousin of Azerbaijani President, Ilham Aliyev. Mikaela and her husband Suleyman Javadov were investigated for funds that were reported by the National Crime Agency under the conjecture that the funds were collected via "corruption, theft or embezzlement." In December of last year, an article written by the Evening Standard disclosed that a London couple had received roughly $19.6 million from "questionable origins."
The National Crime Agency's report states that the $19.6 million in funds came from 20 opaque companies in offshore locations to the couple's UK accounts. The National Crime Agency was able to determine six of the companies and later disclosed that the companies were part of an 'Azerbaijani Laundromat' that would launder money, bribe European officials, and move funds to support lavish lifestyles.
The investigation is still ongoing.

Даугавпилсский дроболитейный завод находится в городе Даугавпилс в Латвии.

Описание
Действующий завод расположен на ул. Варшавас 28 на перекрестке улиц Варшавас и Лудзас. Имеет дроболитейную башню (высота 30 метров + 19 метров колодец).

История
История завода ведётся с 1886 года, когда завод Рейснера в Динабурге упоминается в «Охотничьем календаре» Л. П. Сабанеева как производящий свинцовую дробь. Вначале была построена деревянная дроболитейная башня, а после пожара в 1911 году на ее месте выстроили кирпичную башню. После Второй мировой войны башня была увеличена до 30 метров.

2 апреля 2014 года распоряжением Министерства культуры ЛР дроболитейный завод был внесен в список  охраняемых государством памятников культуры как памятник индустриального значения/наследия.

В 2021 году, заводу в рамках господдержки памятников, выделено 6 тысяч евро на проект сохранения башни.

Награды
Завод получил несколько наград: в 2013 году отмечен в номинации "Новый туристический продукт", в 2015 году удостоен «Награда года 2015» Даугавпилсской думы за общественную работу, а также отмечен на конкурсе Европейской организации культурного туризма, присвоившей заводу третье место в категории «Промышленное наследие».

Предложение башни городу
В мае 2022 года владелец предприятия Айгарс Стакис предложил в дар городу Дроболитейную башню завода, комиссия самоуправления начала рассмотрение сего предложения. Прошел месяц после предложения.

Продукция
Завод выпускает девять видов пуль для гладкоствольного оружия, пули для пневматического оружия и дробь.

Туристический объект
В последние три года после смены владельца завод открыт для посетителей, интересующихся историческим промышленным производством. Завод принимает участие в  Ночи музеев, проводит экскурсии для желающих осмотреть завод, оборудование, производство, а также предоставляет возможность пострелять в тире.

Галерея
Завод и его башня были запечатлены на цветной фотографии Прокудина-Горского в 1912 году, снятой с колокольни военного собора Бориса и Глеба Двинска .

England No 8 Alex Dombrandt has signed a new long-term deal with Gallagher Premiership champions Harlequins.
Dombrandt won the second of his two Test caps against Tonga in the autumn and will hope to be a part of Eddie Jones' Six Nations squad which is named next week.
The 24-year-old helped Harlequins to win last season's Premiership title and he has been in superb form for Tabai Matson's side this term.
England No 8 Alex Dombrandt (above) has signed a new long-term deal with Harlequins
Dombrandt said: 'I'm very excited to have re-signed. I love the club and I love what we're trying to do at the moment. I'm really excited for what's to come in the future.
'Coming from university and into the professional environment, I feel like I've grown on and off the pitch. It's just about being able to continue that growth, get better each day, and go from there.
'This is a club I've supported growing up. I used to come and watch Quins as a kid so I'm very happy to stay at the club that is close to my heart.
'We're trying to create something really special at this club and obviously winning the Premiership last season was amazing, but we don't want to sit on what we did last year.
'I think we're in a really good spot at the moment."'

Dombrandt arrived at Harlequins from Cardiff Metropolitan University ahead of the 2018/19 season and since then, he has grown into one of English rugby's most exciting and dynamic forwards.
He plays a key role at the heart of the Quins side along with scrum-half Danny Care, England fly-half wonderkid Marcus Smith and giant South African centre Andre Esterhuizen.
Dombrandt has made 87 Quins appearances, scoring over 200 points since his 2018 debut and he has already captained the club. He helped lift last season's Premiership title at Twickenham.
Harlequins director of rugby performance Billy Millard said: 'We're delighted Alex has re-signed with the club. He has grown and developed since joining us from Cardiff Met a few years ago.

'Almost as much as his rugby, he's developed really well as a leader and gone on to earn his international recognition off the back of his form with us.
'We're thrilled Alex has recommitted his future with Quins and look forward to seeing him continue to thrive in the quarters.' Harlequins sit third in the Gallagher Premiership table as they look to make it back-to-back titles.
Their next game is at Cardiff Rugby on Friday night in the Heineken Champions Cup with Dombrandt set to return to the city in which he was educated and face the side who tried to sign him.

College football: IU a big bowl step to Rutgers
Tom Canavan
PISCATAWAY, N.J. — If Rutgers is going to become bowl eligible in its first season in the Big Ten Conference, beating Indiana might be the game it needs to win.
The Scarlet Knights (5-4, 1-4) will take on the Hoosiers (3-6, 0-5) on Saturday at High Point Solutions Stadium in their final home game.
A win snaps a three-game losing streak and makes Rutgers bowl eligible. A loss and the bowl prospects become very iffy. The Scarlet Knights finish the season on the road — at No. 12 Michigan State (7-2) and at Maryland (6-3).
Indiana seems the easier game. The Hoosiers are winless in the conference and have lost four straight games overall.
"Everyone has an awareness of where we are in the season and what this one would mean, but you don't really want to get too caught up in that," Rutgers senior safety Lorenzo Waters said. "You want to play this game like it's its own separate season and just focus on going 1-0, not 6-4. We just want to be 1-0."
For the Scarlet Knights seniors, this might be their most emotional game of the year. It's their last at home and they want to go out a winner.
Indiana coach Kevin Wilson said his team needs a win just as much, not only to break its slide but to show it can win on the road.
"It's a sign of building our program, and we want to continue to improve and finish strong," said Wilson, whose team played well in a 13-7 loss to Penn State last weekend.
Rutgers had a bye last week, but it had not played well in the three previous games, losing to No. 8 Ohio State, No. 11 Nebraska and No. 22 Wisconsin by a combined 135-41 margin.
"Don't get me wrong, it's hard," Rutgers defensive tackle Darius Hamilton said of the losing streak. "Nobody likes to lose, but it's definitely a learning experience. It's something that you've got to learn from, but you can't dwell on the past. There's nothing we can do about it now."
Things to watch in the first meeting between Rutgers and Indiana:
Flailing offense
Indiana's once high-scoring offense is stuck in neutral. Since losing their top two quarterbacks with season-ending injuries at Iowa, the Hoosiers have scored 17, 10 and seven points in three straight losses and have just 103 yards passing - combined.
Rutgers run defense
The Big Ten's top backs have done well against the Scarlet Knights. Melvin Gordon ran for 128 yards and two touchdowns and Wisconsin teammate Corey Clement ran for 131 and two more scores two weeks ago. Ameer Abdullah of Nebraska ran for 225, three touchdowns and had a school-record 341 all-purpose yards the week before. Now they get Tevin Coleman, whose 1,371 yards rushing and 152.3 yard average are second in the nation. The junior is on pace to rush for 1,828 yards, which would break Vaughn Dunbar's school record of 1,805 set in 1991
Improving defense
Indiana had a season-high five sacks against Penn State and matched a season-best with 11 tackles for loss. The 13 points allowed were the fewest by Indiana in a Big Ten game since Oct. 8, 2005 vs. Illinois (13). Penn State's 330 total yards were the fewest surrendered by Indiana in a Big Ten game since Nov. 27, 2010 at Purdue (310).
Indiana schedule
The Hoosiers will play their final road game at Ohio State next weekend and close the season at home against state-rival Purdue in the Old Oaken Bucket trophy game. While the schools now play in separate divisions, the rivalry was protected by the conference when the new alignment was announced this season.
Bowl eligibility
Rutgers is looking to become bowl eligible for the ninth time in 10 seasons. Coach Kyle Flood would become the first coach in school history to lead Rutgers to bowl eligibility in each of his first three seasons. The senior class would become bowl eligible for the fourth straight season.
