What are some limits of Google groups?
I read this article, which outlines some limits of Google groups for apps: http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=167085
For instance, only 100 members are allowed in a group.
However, where can I find limits for generic Google groups (https://groups.google.com/)? What is the maximum group size? How many users can join in a single day? What are attachment limits?

You can find a lot of the relevant info in the Google Groups FAQ.
For example, the maximum group size is dependent on the type of Google Group you have:
With Google Apps, a group can contain up to 100 members. With Google Apps for Business and Education, there's no limit to the number of members a group can have. However, if the group contains external members, note that there is a limit to the number of messages you can send to external recipients per day (see next question).
And attachment limits:
Yes, the maximum size limit for messages sent to a group is 25 MB, including attachments (the normal Gmail limit). Group owners or managers can edit specific groups to set lower size limits.
More info about messages and attachments can be found on this Google message FAQ.

Thanks, that is for Google Apps groups. How about for generic Google groups though? – David Faux Aug 29 '12 at 18:39
By "Google Apps" the referred help article refers to the also called "Google Apps for your domain" and "Google Apps free edition" by the other hand the question is about Google Groups for consumer accounts. – Rubén Aug 16 '15 at 13:33
You could try to create one and see if you can get more than 100 members. Or, go look through the various Generic groups and see what the largest groups are.
Apparently, there IS a difference! I see at least one group on groups.google.com that has 303 members! So, maybe no limit or a very large limit? either way, it's more than 100.
I'm sure their Google Apps for Business and Education Groups are good; and they are unlimited, as far as number of members. As for 'cost,' who knows? We would have to look up the cost.

FOUND IT! Apprently, there IS a difference! I see at least one group on groups.google.com that has 303 members! So, maybe no limit or a very large limit? either way, it's more than 100. – Cyber Humorist Oct 7 '14 at 16:36
AFAIK, for Google Groups, there is no limit regarding the number of members. There are limits regarding about how and when they are subscribed to the group.
Google Groups documentation
Bear in mind that there are two main "brands", Google Groups and Google Groups for Business.
Google Groups (GG)
Use googlegroups.com as the domain for the email address of the group. The official documentation for end-users is in http://support.google.com/groups. The official documentation for accessing Google Groups through scripts is in https://developers.google.com/apps-script/reference/groups/.
AFAIK there isn't an official documentation regarding GG limits.
Google Groups for Business (GGB)
Use a custom domain for the email address of the group. It has the same features as GG plus some other features.
The Groups administrator FAQ estates a limit of 100 members for groups of "Google Apps". In that help article, by "Google Apps" they are referring to the Google Apps for your domain, free, legacy, edition. The Google Apps for Work or Education editions doesn't have a limit on the number of members for each group.
From Groups Policies and Limits - Google Apps Administrator Help.
As a security measure, all Google Apps groups have limits on message activity, invitations and size, and membership. If you reach one of the limits, you are prevented from the activity whose limit you reached. The restriction typically lasts an hour, but can last as long as 24 hours.
The following limits apply for Google Apps for Work or Education accounts. The value of these limits may change without notice in order to protect Google's infrastructure.

All About Marble Tile and Slab
August 1, 2019 Muriel Kennedy
Marble has stood the test of time. Dating back to the Roman days of Julius Cesar it has been used by architects and builders for centuries to enhance the beauty of any room or structure both in and outdoors.
Not needing any constraints, its' adaptive software add attractiveness to floors, countertops, walls, ceilings, as well as decorative trim.
For more detail, about marble slab, you may go through graniteformykitchen.com/marble/.
During a number of the previous centuries, marble has ever been tied to elegance and luxury as dictated by its own cost.
At the previous twenty decades, however, it has grown into a relatively simple to mine and easily available material that's easy to process and easy to use. Consequently, it's now a viable and economical option when contemplating your cosmetic home choices.
While marble has its own' allure of luxury, also, it provides practical usage too. For several decades, the hospitals and practices that required sterile and clean surroundings used marble floors due to its capacity to resist recurrence of microscopic bacteria and organisms.
Additionally, there's a propensity to utilize marble in warm climates due to its capacity to the ability to remain cool to the touch. Just imagine how pleasant is it to walk bare foot on cool marble floor once the temperatures out close and transcend triple digits.
Considering that the Roman times, marble was a trustworthy substance and strong option for countertops, flooring and wall tile.
Our understanding of this substance now provides us with the capability to keep and expand its first look many years following installation.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi releases World Scientific Book Series "M.S. Swaminathan: The Quest for a World Without Hunger"
May 21, 2017 By ACES No comments yet
Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi released World Scientific's two-part book series titled 'M.S. Swaminathan: The Quest for a World Without Hunger'. Union Minister of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Mr Radha Mohan Singh also participated. The occasion was also graced with the presence of Union Ministers for Food Processing and Railways, the Deputy Speaker of Indian Lok Sabha (Parliament) and leading agricultural scientists and heads of Indian research and educational institutions.
The two volumes published under this prestigious World Scientific Series bring out the remarkable transformation of Indian agriculture. This was achieved through synergy among science, public policy and farmers' enthusiasm. The first volume '50 Years of Green Revolution' is a compilation of selected scientific and popular papers on the green revolution and related topics by M.S. Swaminathan. The book also deals with the transformation of the Green into an Evergreen Revolution with a view to achieve productivity in perpetuity without accompanying ecological and social harm. The second volume 'M.S. Swaminathan: A Legend in Science and Beyond' is a biography of M.S. Swaminathan authored by his long-standing associate, Professor P.C. Kesavan. It is unique in bringing out for the first time his pioneering contributions to basic sciences in areas such as cytogenetics, ionizing radiation and chemical mutagens, plant tissue culture to applied genetics. In his quest for a Hunger Free World, Professor Swaminathan has developed a new methodology for linking agriculture and nutrition. This Farming System for Nutrition approach seeks to alleviate the burden of malnutrition in all its dimensions. Professor Swaminathan often states that the future of the world belongs to nations with grains, not guns.
Honourable Prime Minister speaking at the event
The Prime Minister emphasized the need to move to the concept of 'nutrition security' than 'food security', for which he advocated scientific and technological intervention, stating "The challenge in the agriculture sector remains. We keep talking about green revolution-I and green revolution-II. But the goal should be 'evergreen revolution'. We should have sustainable agricultural production and work towards removing regional imbalances,"
Honourable Prime Minister greeting Professor Swaminathan during the event
The Prime Minister highlighted the vision for water conservation and productivity as per drop, more crop. He recommended synergy between technology advancements, public policy and field level implementation as lab to land. In order to increase public awareness and demand for agri-products, each district in India should create and publicise its unique agri-identity (for example, Solan town in Himachal Pradesh is called the Mushroom City).
Praising the dedication and commitment of Prof. Swaminathan, the Prime Minister described him as a "Kisan Vaigyanik" — Farmers' Scientist — rather than just a "Krishi Vaigyanik" —Agricultural Scientist. The Prime Minister said that Prof. Swaminathan's speciality is that his work has been grounded in practical reality.
In addition to wide print media coverage, the event was telecast LIVE on the national news television channel DD News. For a video of the full programme, go to https://youtu.be/jynyUTZg7Vk
For more information on the two volumes, please visit http://www.worldscientific.com/worldscibooks/10.1142/10279?utm_source=eureka_alert&utm_medium=press_release&utm_campaign=eureka_10279 and http://www.worldscientific.com/worldscibooks/10.1142/10280?utm_source=eureka_alert&utm_medium=press_release&utm_campaign=eureka_10280, respectively.

Gay couple sue bed and breakfast owner
Michael Black and John Morgan not allowed to stay at Swiss Bed and Breakfast in Berkshire in March 2010
Mon 17 Sep 2012 17.40 EDT
A gay couple have sued the owner of bed and breakfast accommodation after she refused to let them stay in a double room because of her religious views.
Michael Black, 64, and partner John Morgan, 59, sought damages from Susanne Wilkinson after she declined to let them have the room at the Swiss Bed and Breakfast in Cookham, Berkshire, in March 2010.
In their particulars of claim to Reading county court, the couple, from Brampton, near Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, told how Black, an exams consultant and writer, had booked a double room for 19 March 2010.
But when he and his computer consultant partner arrived there Wilkinson made clear to them that she was not prepared to allow them to share a double bed and that she would not accommodate them.
Lawyers from Liberty, the human rights organisation, which has taken up the case, argued that under legal regulations it was unlawful for a person concerned with the provision of services to the public to discriminate against a person on the grounds of that person's sexual orientation.
Lawyers for Wilkinson argued that a person offering bed and breakfast in their own home was entitled to refuse to permit persons who were not married or in a civil partnership (whether of the opposite sex or the same sex) to share a double bed.
The couple are not in a civil partnership, and in these circumstances, there was no direct or indirect discrimination, the lawyers said.
Wilkinson, a married mother-of-four, considers that providing a double bed to the couple would involve her in promoting what she believed to be a sin, namely sexual relations outside heterosexual marriage.
James Dingemans QC, for Wilkinson, told the court: "If Mrs Wilkinson had simply said, 'don't come in because you're gay', that could never be justified. It was simply the provision of the double bed which Mrs Wilkinson believed was wrong."
Henrietta Hill, for the couple, said: "It is obvious that there is a difficult balancing act to be carried out in this case. The proper balance to be struck has already been determined by the very clear will of parliament."
The men seek a declaration that they have been discriminated against, and damages – if they win the case, it has been agreed that £1,800 each would be an appropriate sum, Hill said.
It has been previously reported that they will give any money to charity.
The judge, Claire Moulder, reserved judgment after the one-day hearing, saying she expected to give her ruling in one to two weeks' time.


While death remains an uncomfortable topic, Facebook has come to play an important role in bringing grief into our national conversation. When Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook's COO, lost her husband, her candid posts on Facebook elicited a wellspring of condolences and further opened the dialogue on death.
Mark Zuckerberg, the co-founder and chief executive at Facebook, wrote on Facebook about his experience with miscarriage, and he too shared his grief openly.

Utah Valley's Bursey Shoots Career-Low 6-under-par 66 at Warrior Princeville Makai Invitational
By Jason Erickson, UVU assistant director of communicaitons
Princeville, Kauai—Blair Bursey is in a tie for second place at the Warrior Princeville Makai Invitational after carding a career-best single round score of 6-under-par 66 on Sunday at the Makai Golf Club in Kauai.
As a team, Utah Valley sits in a tie with UC Irvine and Idaho for 16th in the 19-team field after shooting a 14-over-par 302 on Sunday. Mississippi leads the tournament after one round at 11-under-par 277.
"Blair was two over through seven and then played his final 11 holes at 8-under-par," Utah Valley head coach Chris Curran said. "Unfortunately as a team we still have quite a bit of work to do."
Bursey's career-best 6-under-par 66 included two eagles and five birdies. The junior is in a tie for second with Missouri's Hayden Buckley. He is just one shot behind first round leader Mateusz Gradecki of East Tennessee State.
JT Timmons is tied for 53rd after shooting a 3-over-par 75. Timmons recorded a pair of birdies and 12 pars during round one. Ariel Elftman-Hanson carded a 6-over-par 78 in round one and is tied for 82nd.
Cedric Laverdure, who is playing the tournament as an individual, is tied for 87th after recording a 7-over-par 79. Payton Stott is tied for the 104th spot after shooting an 11-over-par 83. Gabe Laysen rounded out the scoring for the Wolverines, posting a 13-over-par 85 as he sits in 109th on the individual leaderboard.
Utah Valley will play its second round of the three-round tournament on Monday. The Wolverines will tee off at 8 a.m. HT/12 p.m. MT on Monday. Live results will be available at GolfStat.com.

Sonic Battle is een vechtspel uit de Sonic the Hedgehog-franchise. Het spel is ontwikkeld door Dimps en gepubliceerd door Sega (in Japan) en THQ (buiten Japan) voor de Nintendo Game Boy Advance.

Verhaallijn
4000 jaar geleden creëerde een oude beschaving een zelfbewust wapen genaamd Gizoid. 50 jaar geleden werd deze Gizoid teruggevonden door Prof. Gerald Robotnik. In het heden komt de Gizoid in handen van Dr. Eggman, maar wanneer hij er niet in slaagt hem te activeren dumpt hij de Gizoid op het strand. Daar wordt hij gevonden door Sonic. Sonic noemt de Gizoid Emerl, en neemt hem mee.

Door zijn ervaringen met Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Cream, Rouge, en Shadow verandert Emerl in een compleet nieuwe robot. Eggman wil de Gizoid echter terug nu deze geactiveerd is. Verder realiseert Shadow zich dat Emerl nog altijd geprogrammeerd is voor vernietiging, ondanks dat Sonic en Co hem proberen te veranderen.

Emerl neemt net als Sonic en co deel aan een gevechtstoernooi. Hij haalt de finale waarin hij met Eggman vecht. Dan komt Emerls ware aard weer naar boven, en hij begint de wereld te vernietigen. Sonic vernietigt Emerl om hem te stoppen.

Gameplay
De volgende personages zijn bespeelbaar in het spel:
 Sonic the Hedgehog
 Miles "Tails" Prower
 Cream the Rabbit
 Rouge the Bat
 Amy Rose
 Knuckles the Echidna
 Shadow the Hedgehog
 Emerl
E-102 Gamma (niet bespeelbaar in de verhaalmode)
 Chaos (niet bespeelbaar in de verhaalmode)

Gevechten worden uitgevochten in 3D-arena's met maximaal vier spelers. Elk personage heeft een reeks aanvallen en vaardigheden tot zijn beschikking. De aanvallen zijn onder te verdelen in Air Attack, Upper Attack (gebruikt om tegenstanders de lucht in te slaan), Heavy Attack (gebruikt om tegenstanders weg te slaan), en Aim Attack (gebruikt om een tegenstander te volgen na gebruik van een Heavy Attack).

De speciale krachten van een personage zijn onder te verdelen in drie types: Shot, Power en Set. Shot focust zich op het afvuren van een projectiel. Power richt zich erop zo veel mogelijk schade toe te brengen met een enkele aanval.

Elke speler heeft twee balken boven in beeld. De eerste geeft de gezondheid van de speler aan. De tweede balk loopt langzaam vol terwijl de speler aanvallen incasseert of afweert. Zodra de tweede balk vol is, kan de speler een speciale aanval gebruiken die zijn tegenstander in een keer knock out slaat.

Het hoofdzakelijke kenmerk van het spel is het Skill Capture-systeem. Emerl kan de acties en aanvallen van alle andere personages imiteren. Hij begint met langzame incomplete imitaties van Sonics acties, maar naarmate het spel vordert krijgt hij er vaardigheden bij. Na een tegenstander te hebben verslagen krijgt Emerl een kaart van die tegenstander, wat hem een nieuwe vaardigheid of aanval oplevert.

Locaties
Elk personage heeft een arena en meerdere arena's bevinden zich samen op een stuk van de kaart.

Emerald Town
Emerald Beach - Sonic
Tails' Lab - Tails
Beach - Tails' arena in Emerl's verhaal.

NEWS: Nunsense the Musical to Play at The Union Chapel
AuthorEmma ClarendonPosted on March 22, 2019 March 22, 2019 CategoriesMusicals, News, TheatreTagsAndrew Wright, Dillie Keane, Union Chapel
It has been confirmed that the musical will play at the Union Chapel from the 18th to the 20th July.
The cast for Andrew Wright's production will be led by actress and comedienne Dillie Keane best known as one third of the comedy cabaret trio Fascinating Aïda. Her theatre credits include Single Again and many additional one woman shows including Citizen Keane and Back With You. She will be playing the role of Sister Mary Regina.
Talking about being part of the production she said: "Taking the role of Sister Mary Regina seems like a natural step in my career following a convent education, a kind of aversion therapy, if you like. I am particularly delighted to be playing the 'Top Nun'. It means I haven't had to climb the ranks from Sister Floor-Washer to Sister Communion-Wine-Buyer, and I've jumped straight in at Reverend Mother level. Brilliant. I can't wait to bring this hilarious show back to London after such a long time and in such a fabulously appropriate venue."
Nunsense sees five survivors of the Little Sisters of Hoboken convent (following an unfortunate incident of unintended soup poisoning!) putting on benefit to make up the shortfall on funds for the burial of the remaining 4 of the 52 dead. The sisterhood come together at the Union Chapel for an all-singing, all-dancing revue – with a bit of circus thrown in for good measure! Meet Sister Mary 'Amnesia' and city slicking nun Sister Robert Anne as calamities unfold whilst Mother Superior tries in vain to maintain order, but mischievousness prevails!
Having won the Outer Critics' Circle awards for the best Off-Broadway musical, Nunsense is directed and choreographed by Andrew Wright, with lighting design by Jack Weir, sound design by Calum Martin and casting from Debbie O'Brien and Harry J Blumenau. It is produced by ALMACK Productions, which was founded in 2017 by Alan Mackintosh, and follows previous critically acclaimed sell-out productions of Nunsense and Little Shop of Horrors in his home town of Inverness.
Nunsense will play at the Union Chapel from the 18th to the 20th July.

We are 4 Tower Hamlets residents who after seeing what happened in the 2014 local Council & Mayoral Elections decided to challenge the result in court with an Election Petition.
We organised the case ourselves: gathering evidence and collecting witness statements from other local residents. With the help of our barrister Francis Hoar, after a case lasting over 6 weeks in the Royal Courts of Justice, we won and the Mayoral election was overturned.
We were awarded costs but in the months that followed we have incurred high legal costs and we are now facing a shortfall even after the sale of the assets we have aquired.
We took on this case for no personal gain, our only concern was to help bring back democracy to Tower Hamlets.
Please see this recent article from the Sunday Times highlighting our current situation or see the article in the photo above.
Anyone who knows me well knows how much I have suffered from being involved in the Tower Hamlets Election Petition. In many ways I regret ever having got involved as it has had such a negative impact on my personal life but when I see a newspaper headline like this one it puts it all in context.
The UK law is to be changed BECAUSE of our case and it makes me very proud indeed.
We are still potentially in a very bad position financially because of the case. We were awarded costs after we won the case and will shortly be selling the property that we secured but this will not cover all our legal costs unfortunately. To add to our woes Lutfur Rahman may be mounting a further Judicial Review so the story drags on and on and inevitably the costs will continue to go up and up.
Dave Hill has written a good article giving context and perspective to the case in the Guardian today.
I'm really overwhelmed by people's kindness, generosity and support.
Very encouraging and moving response - thank you! Andy Erlam, (one of Debbie's colleagues on the Tower Hamlets Election Petition.) PS We are glad the petition was useful. Its so appalling when YOUR OWN solicitors stab you in the back and are motivated by greed. By contrast our barrister Francis Hoar could not have been more helpful as is our new solicitor Andrew Marshall.
Just heard about Section 40 ('the Gagging Clause') of the Crime and Courts Act which if passed would punish future campaigners even worse than happened in this case. Please sign and share https://org.repealsection40.org !
Hi Andy, Debbie et al. - I've donated, but surely the government should step in here and cover the legal costs from the public purse? It's the least they could do given their previous abysmal lack of action which put you in this very unfortunate position. Is this line of inquiry being pursued? Thanks again for all you've done!


This proposal has been approved and the Eclipse Deeplearning4j project has been created.
Deep learning is a fast-growing field within artificial intelligence, and deep neural networks have seen rapid adoption in recent years. Successes in machine vision, speech recognition and natural language processing show the technology is ripe for adoption by enterprise.
Eclipse Deeplearning4j targets enterprises looking to implement deep learning technologies. Many large organizations have already adopted big data technologies such as Apache Spark, Apache Hadoop, and Apache Kafka for building large-scale data pipelines and integrating various data warehouses.
Deeplearning4j will integrate with these popular open-source technologies to make it easy for enterprise to adopt deep learning technologies as part of their existing stack.
Deep learning technologies are also being utilized at the edge to support Internet of Things (IoT) deployments. Android is an increasingly popular OS for writing applications for smart edge devices. Deeplearning4j primarily targets large-scale enterprise environments and embedded environments on Android, but in the future, it will be deployable on other kinds of environments via export in C.
In its current incarnation, Deeplearning4j is a software distribution of several projects targeted at integrating with enterprise environments. The project as submitted to the Eclipse Foundation would encompass everything from reinforcement learning to integrations with various platforms, with the goal of building machine learning workflows from ETL through training to inference.
The main goal of the project is to be a production runtime that imports models from the Python ecosystem and runs them at scale, offering a stable and secure product to large organizations.
Most deep learning frameworks in today's environment are simply tensor libraries implementing automatic differentiation, with the rest of the production stack being left as an "exercise for the reader". Production stack refers to everything from integration with web development frameworks to dealing with messy data.
Deeplearning4j also targets a mix of legacy big data environments and running on hybrid big data clusters (which are now an emerging trend with Apache YARN and Apache Mesos supporting GPUs).
Deeplearning4j started in late 2013 as a project at Skymind (the company behind Deeplearning4j) and has grown quickly in feature scope and community since the project's inception.
Eclipse Deeplearning4j enables developers and large organizations to build deep learning applications, covering the whole deep learning workflow from data preprocessing through distributed training and hyperparameter optimization and production-grade deployment.
The goal of Eclipse Deeplearning4j is to provide a core set of components for building applications that incorporate AI. AI products within an enterprise often have a wider scope than just machine learning. The overall goal of a distribution is to provide smart defaults for building deep learning applications.
Deeplearning4j can facilitate the process of building an application without relying on third-party providers for ETL libraries, tensor libraries, etc. Convention over configuration is key for scaling large software projects that will be maintained for long periods.
Most current projects in deep learning don't think about backwards compatibility with large enterprise applications, nor do they facilitate the building of applications. Instead, they optimize for flexibility and loose coupling (which is great for research). Deeplearning4j is the bridge between research in the lab and applications in the real world.
libnd4j: Pure C++ library for tensor operations, which works closely with the open-source library JavaCPP (JavaCPP was created and is maintained by a Skymind engineer, but it is not part of this project).
RL4J: Reinforcement learning on the JVM, integrated with Deeplearning4j. Includes Deep-Q learning used in AlphaGo and A3C.
Arbiter: Automatic tuning of neural networks via hyperparameter search. Hyperparameter optimization using grid search, random search and Bayesian methods.
The Eclipse Foundation is a great foundation that closely matches the goals of the Deeplearning4j committers. The Eclipse community is also a proven ground for Java projects with a great set of complementary projects that could benefit from having an associated deep learning/AI project.
Better Python framework interoperability; automatic differentiation for a Tensorflow/PyTorch like experience based on the ND4J framework; interpretability; larger model zoo.
More layers and algorithms and data pipeline integrations, etc.

La isla Andamán del Sur (en inglés: South Andaman Island) es la isla más meridional de las islas Gran Andamán y es el hogar de la mayoría de la población de las Islas Andamán. Puerto Blair (Port Blair), es la capital de las islas, está situada en la parte sur de la isla. Algunas áreas de la isla son zonas restringidas para los no-nativos, sin embargo, las autorizaciones de tránsito se pueden obtener del Ministerio del Interior. Al igual que el resto del archipiélago, fue golpeada por el terremoto del océano Índico de 2004, produciendo muchas muertes en la isla.

Andamán del Sur es la tercera isla más grande en el grupo de islas. Se encuentra inmediatamente al sur de la Isla Andamán del Medio, de la que está separada solo por un estrecho canal, de unos pocos cientos de metros de ancho. La isla tiene 93 km de largo y 31 km de ancho. Su superficie es de 1.211 km². Tenía una población de 181.949 según el censo de 2001.

Andamán del Sur es menos montañosa que la más septentrional de las Islas Andamán. Koiob es el punto más elevado y alcanza una altura de 456,6 metros.

Tin Roof Antiques
Nestled into a brick building on the corner of McCausland and Bruno avenues, Tin Roof Antiques has been owned and operated by Jon Trudell for the past 35 years. It's impossible to describe all of the cluttered little shop's inventory because it's always changing, but the main floor features pottery, place settings, books, magazines circa 1930, jewelry, model trains and airplanes, and lamps stacked to the ceiling on top of wooden desks, chests of drawers, china cabinets and armoires, among other items. Feathered hats and pre-1950s paintings in elaborate frames hang on the walls. The shop has a lot of 19th- and 20th-century furniture and is known for buying collections (like the Boy Scouts collection currently for sale). Sarah Rodel, who runs the shop with her uncle, Trudell, says the shop typically looks for items from the 1950s or earlier, but it always has an eye out for the "unique and unusual." It gives free in-store appraisals and makes house calls. Tin Roof is open Tuesday through Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., but it is wise to call ahead of time.

Moiraine Gets Ready in a New Teaser For The Wheel of Time
Jake Abbate Wednesday, November 03, 2021
After years of anticipation, Amazon's The Wheel of Time series is officially less than a month away, which means Moiraine Damodred is about to embark on her treacherous journey to save the world. Ahead of the show's premiere, the streaming service has debuted a new teaser that sets up Moiraine's mission. You can check it out for yourself below.
The clip shows Rosamund Pike's character suiting up in a dimly-lit room. As she girds herself for what lies ahead, she recounts a time in her history when those with power attempted to "cage darkness itself." Their scheming nearly destroyed the world, but luckily, the Aes Sedai were able to piece everything back together. However, there's still one person who can undo all their efforts, and he (or she) is known only as Dragon. The original "man who brought the breaking of the world" has just come of age in a new physical form. And though their identity is a mystery, Moiraine and her fellow travelers will stop at nothing to find them.
Swear your oath. Watch this exclusive clip from The Wheel of Time. Coming Nov 19th pic.twitter.com/nRGfNDVyIC

Aside from Pike, the teaser also features Daniel Henney as al'Lan Mandragoran, who appears near the end of the clip. Along with several other companions, the pair will travel to a variety of key locations from Robert Jordan's original novels. Luckily, their journey is guaranteed to last more than a year, as Amazon has already renewed the series for a second season.
The first three episodes of The Wheel of Time will hit Amazon Prime Video on November 19.

Electronic Music Duo Daft Punk Announces Split After Nearly 3 Decades
Published February 22, 2021 at 4:19 PM EST
Their first album produced hits that went global.
(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "AROUND THE WORLD")
DAFT PUNK: (Singing) Around the world, around the world.
SHAPIRO: They came back even harder.
(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "HARDER, BETTER, FASTER, STRONGER")
DAFT PUNK: (Singing) Harder, better, faster, stronger.
SHAPIRO: And over the course of 28 years, they were more than fortunate.
(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "GET LUCKY")
PHARRELL WILLIAMS: (Singing) I'm up all night to get lucky.
SHAPIRO: Well, today, the French electronic music duo Daft Punk announced they're breaking up. The group was one of the biggest dance music acts of all time. Music journalist Simon Reynolds joins us to remember Daft Punk and their signature robot head masks.
Good to have you here.
SIMON REYNOLDS: Nice to be with you.
SHAPIRO: First, I have to ask how seriously you take this breakup announcement because there have been musical acts that announce they're dissolving. Then they get back together, or it turns out to be a PR stunt. Daft Punk says this is the end. Do you believe it?
REYNOLDS: You know, there's always the chance that someone will make them an offer they can't refuse, and they'll reform. And it'll be a huge deal. But I think in a funny sort of way, they have quite a serious group. They take what they do seriously, even though a lot of it's very fun and sort of camp and that - there's a lot of ideas behind it.
And I think they have probably run out of directions to go with their music. Their last album came out 2013, and it kind of completed a circle for them. They started out very sample-based, using loops from, you know, disco records and all this great music of the '70s and '80s. And then they kind of got to the point where they were making it themselves. You know, that's an arc. That's a really interesting arc from being very digital to being totally analog. Where could they go next?
SHAPIRO: So take us back to their breakthrough in the '90s. What was it that set them apart and made them pop?
REYNOLDS: There was a time when a lot of dance music was very minimal and hard, and they kind of brought back this sort of fun and this kind of sashay, you know, by sampling a lot of disco, looping it in this sort of insanely addictive, hokey kind of way. There was a sort of transcendent artificiality to their sound. And then that got even more pronounced on the album "Discovery," where they were drawing on things that were very unhip at that time, you know, from the sort of '70s soft rock era but weaving that into modern dance music. And I think, you know, there's a lot of irony and there's a lot of kind of love and awe for pop music in what Daft Punk do.
SHAPIRO: "Get Lucky" was the big track off their 2013 album "Random Access Memories," which was such a different vibe from their earlier work. Tell us about how they evolved and what they were going for at this point in their career.
REYNOLDS: They were maestros of sampling and taking these fragments from all kinds of records, finding the gold, you know, in often quite undistinguished records and turning them into tracks. And then they decided they were tired and that they actually wanted to work out how to make the kind of music that other people would sample, you know, 'cause they wanted to get that sort of feel and funk of the records that inspired them. And so it was like a huge project, and it took them 2 1/2 years. And they - it was almost like a kind of time travel exercise, going back to how records were made in the '70s.
SHAPIRO: How much do you credit them with creating this massive U.S. mainstream market for electronic dance music that we see today?
REYNOLDS: They had - Daft Punk had a very big influence on the EDM explosion. And, you know, the way that Daft Punk hid their identities behind a mask, behind these sort of robot helmets, is very similar to the way that Deadmau5 wears this giant mouse head, you know? And they introduced this idea that electronic music, when presented onstage, didn't have to be just two dudes behind some computers, just looking very nondescript. You couldn't make a show of it, you know? They turned dance music into this audiovisual spectacle.
SHAPIRO: That is Simon Reynolds on the career of dance music duo Daft Punk, which is calling it quits after almost 30 years.
Thank you, Simon.
REYNOLDS: Good to be with you.

(ABOVE) At The Village on Venetian Bay, just before the rain began. Summer is coming!
I was at Fish Restaurant in The Village on Venetian Bay, taking an iPhone video before meeting Gail and *CSG for lunch. Looking at the patio, I could see he wasn't joking: I matched the placemats, napkins and chairs, even down to the exact shade of orange and blue. Oh, for goodness sake.
Talk about a perfect photo opportunity. (You can see it at the bottom of this page.) Thank you, synchronicity!
I love synchronicity, that amazing unknown something that creates special coincidences. Sometimes the events are fairly small, like in this situation, but they also can be enormous–like when I was saved from a car crash (more on that another time).
I'm grateful for every one of them, because they let me know something powerful is at play, and if I pay attention it can help me–even if it's just to experience a happy moment.
I feel blessed when I have that.
Hope you have a synchronicity in your life, too–today or sometime soon.

Q: Swift and Firebase | How precise is the .timestamp(), can I use it as an identification? I am making a quiz game for iOS and I need a way to identify which game is which. Can I use the .timestamp() or is there a chance that two games could end up with the same timestamp value?

A: A better way to create identifiers, as suggested by @RMenke is to use NSUIID().UUIDString...
For example
let uuid = NSUUID().UUIDString

Team 81: The 2004 Detroit Tigers
Blake VandeBunteContributor IDecember 1, 2009
Tom Pidgeon/Getty Images
Record: 72-90
Win %: .444
Win % Change: 179
Run Differential: -17
Pythagorean Record: 79-83
AL Finish: 10th of 14
Manager: Alan Trammell
Best Transaction: Traded Ramon Santiago and a minor leaguer to Seattle for Carlos Guillen. Forget that Guillen's current contract is a total albatross and think back a few years ago to when Carlos was a major piece of the Tigers offense. Guillen was a league-average shortstop at best during his time in Seattle, which is why the Tigers had to give up very little to obtain him in a trade. Upon arriving in Detroit, Guillen became a serious slugger and made multiple All-Star appearances.
Worst Transaction: Traded Cody Ross for Steve Colyer. Colyer never did a thing in Detroit. He was a lefty reliever and he didn't make a dent in the bigs. Ross, on the other hand, has developed into a pretty nice outfielder with the Marlins. He has 20 HR power and dives around the outfield with no concern for his body. The Tigers could use a guy like that.
Upper: The play of Ivan Rodriguez. Pudge came to the Tigers after their 119-loss disaster of a season in 2003. Many said that Pudge came to Detroit strictly for the money, and while that may be true, Pudge was terrific at the plate and the Tigers looked like a different team. Pudge hit .334 and finished 10th in the MVP voting, all great for a player on a last place team. Rodriguez also took home another Gold Glove and another Silver Slugger award. His .334 batting average ranked him fourth in the American League.
Downer: The end of Eric Munson. Munson was third overall pick in the 1999 draft. He was going to be the big bat in the Tigers future. That just never happened. 2004 was Munson's final chance in Detroit and he fell short. He clubbed 19 home runs but struck out 90 times in only 321 at-bats and had an on-base percentage of only .289 which isn't going to get it done for any big league team. It's always tough for a team to admit that they made a major mistake with a top pick like Munson, but letting him walk away was the right choice. Isn't it sad that this guy used to be in the middle of the Tigers lineup?
Summary: While their record looks awful, this team won 29 games more than they did in 2003, so this was a HUGE improvement. They would relapse a bit in 2005 before putting it all together in 2006. The pitching staff was led by a young Mike Maroth who won 11 games and had an ERA+ of 103. The back end of the rotation struggled with the likes of Gary Knotts and Nate Cornejo. A young Jeremy Bonderman rebounded from a 19-loss season to go 11-13 and lowered his ERA considerably. Free agent pick ups, Fernando Vina and Rondell White looked good for a few weeks, but both players spent way too much time on the DL. The offense was led by the surprising Carlos Guillen, Ivan Rodriguez, and Carlos Pena.

Now is the very best time to be a Barbershopper—more than ever.
This is how we led off our End of Year letter in 2015. It's STILL true.
Our growth investments in programs, volunteer leadership, personnel and strategic planning have been unprecedented. We have added capacity to boldly expand support to the life of our chapters. We've embarked on a sweeping effort to understand our past and present barbershop world, as lived by you, and told in your words. We've reached more people with the sound of barbershop and the rewards of the barbershop experience: the joy of singing, the joy of friendship, the joy of joining together, and the joy of making a difference in people's lives. And we're just getting started.
Meaningful media coverage at the local and national levels. I'm amazed by how interested and curious the media is with our organization and singers. Stories develop every day, as we continue to inform communities about our impact.
We all collaborate more with a cappella groups around the world. It may be a number of years before those singers join a chapter or establish a barbershop quartet, but those singers are beginning to KNOW who we are and where we are.
Music educators "get" barbershop! Whether it's professional development (Harmony University at Belmont and regional Harmony Colleges) or the increased demand in our youth festivals (Youth Chorus Festival at Midwinter or local festivals and camps), music educators are beginning to understand our "no-strings-attached" support of their choral programs. Over time, these music educators bring the multiplier we need to increase the overall funnel of chorus and quartet singers and future directors of our choruses. Appreciating the allied arts is critical to our long-term relevance with these choral educators and directors.
Singers coming to your chapter will be disappointed if they don't find a compelling weekly experience. The Healthy Chapter Initiative (www.barbershop.org/healthychapters) is a mindset for viewing the entire experience — musical/artistic, social, leadership and community involvement — as vital parts of being a barbershop chapter. Starting from a model for self-assessment and extending across all resources for improvement and satisfaction, we are helping chapters find their guiding stars, then setting sail toward their chosen futures.
Our Harmony University team continues to deliver more content online (more than 50 new videos released this year) and more class options at our weeklong school at Belmont University in Nashville.
The All-Chapter Chorus and the pilot Seniors Chorus festival at Midwinter expand participation options past the chapter chorus. This success has now permeated into the District conventions, encouraging more singing time for our attendees and attracting those who might not normally attend a District convention because they aren't interested in competition, just the joy of singing with their barbershop brothers.
Published and Commissioned the "THINK" program that has already been introduced and impacted close to 80-100 chapters this past year.
We have published materials on how to utilize eBiz for your Chapter and District, file required government financial documents, and a User's Guide to the mandatory Financial Review process.
We've commissioned 15 Certified Leadership Facilitators that have and will impact 7 districts this Leadership Academy cycle and will hopefully be doing a lot more! These facilitators have already packed in just over 200 hours of engagement with chapters in the last five months of being commissioned.
Created a dedicated full-time staff member who services and fields calls and correspondence for ALL chapter and district leaders about best-practice, what resources are available, and continues to foster the working opportunities that we have as an organization (working with District leaders) to better service our chapters and ultimately our members.
We are financially stable and positioned for strategic growth.
Our annual report reflects the health and well-being of our organization.
Even with flat/declining membership revenues, we will see no Society dues increases for the fourth straight year.
Meanwhile, the Society has been able to grow our programs and budget by nearly 21%. How? We are seeing increased interest by non-members in our services and programs.
Philanthropy within our membership continues to grow, with donations through Harmony Foundation International fueling programs in outreach, chapter support, and continuing education through Harmony University. Your contributions have reached over 100,000 people, which is significant growth given four years ago the Outreach department didn't even exist. Thank you!
Even as we tend to our own specific needs, we are working to position our Society as a major arts organization that has a $30 million annual impact when all of our business units are considered.
You are building it. We are building it. We are making a difference in people's lives with every chord. I wish you a happy, safe, and wonderful holiday season, and a prosperous New Year.
$0 Dues increase — neutral for the fourth straight year!
21% Growth in program budgets - while maintaining same dues rates!

60 Second Sustainability: A Video Game for Sustainability at UW
EarthGames (www.earthgames.org) plans to build a video game called 60 Second Sustainability (60SS) for mobile phones and tablets that educates students about many sustainability actions they can take on campus, while promoting and building bridges among RSOs. We seek to educate a new audience of students about sustainability actions they can take, and spread the word about campus organizations. The cost is $26,043, which will go to student managers and a professional game developer on staff with EarthGames. The game will be made available for free to download for mobile devices, and shown in a variety of tabling settings and events across campus. The game, which recently won the Audience Choice Award at the UW Sustainability Game Jam, will consist of many 5-10 second "microgames" played in quick succession, which allows us to introduce many sustainability concepts in a short period of time.
The project will involve many students across campus at various levels of commitment, ranging from building the app, to co-designing and testing microgames, to distributing the app. Three student managers will be paid for their involvement. Judy Twedt, a graduate student in the Interdisciplinary Individualized Ph.D. program is managing the project. She is a Husky Green Award winner, College of the Environment Outreach award winner, and is experienced with making connections among groups at UW and in the broader community as evidenced by her leadership of the UAW Climate Caucus Speaker's Bureau, and service with the Alliance for Jobs and Clean Energy. Rikki Parent will serve as lead artist for the project. Rikki is majoring in atmospheric sciences and has contributed much of the art for previous EarthGames releases including A Caribou's Tale, Erode Runner, Soot Out at the 0o C Corral, and EcoTrivia: Save the Animals. An undergraduate programmer, potentially Alexey Beall, the creator and sole programmer of Dark Side of the Earth, will contribute to programming the game within the Unity game engine.
We will also involve the ATM S 495: EarthGames Studio class with co-design of the games. This largely independent study class averages around 10-15 students each quarter, and current and previous students have expressed great enthusiasm about participating in development and testing of 60SS. The class frequently tests, critiques, and tunes prototype games in the weekly classroom meeting.
Finally, we plan to engage a large number of sustainability RSOs in co-designing the game. We have had preliminary conversations with groups including WashPIRG, SEED, SAGE, Green Husky Coalition, the UW Sustainability Action Network, Global Sustainability Initiative, and UW Solar about contributing their own theme, task, or action item into the micro-games. Student groups have expressed a keen interest and excitement in contributing to the microgames. This opportunity to co-design the microgames offers student RSO's several benefits: (1) the creation of a tool to engage new audiences or members, (2) promotion of their chosen sustainability goals and values, (3) design and teamwork skill-building through the co-development process, (4) connecting with other student groups across campus through the game, to amplify and mutually reinforce the overlapping sustainability goals of groups around campus.
A big source of the outreach will be through existing student networks. Part of the co-design plan for each RSO will be to commit to showcase the game at one or more event(s).
We look forward to showcasing the game at campus events including Fall Sustainability Fair, Dawg Daze, Earth Day 2019, and through coordination with Student Life and HFS. We will also collaborate with RSO's to host drop-in events in the Odegaard Library media arcade, and the HUB Game Center, and with the UW Game Club.
Online publicity will include the quarterly EarthGames newsletter, which reaches over 500 people, and through EarthGames social media channels. We will invite each sustainability organization who participates in co-design to write a blog entry about their microgame development process, which we expect will generate interest among game designers in the EarthGames network.
The 60SS app will be maintained by the EarthGames group. EarthGames Studio is an official UW class that is offered at least twice each year. We anticipate that the 60SS game will forge lasting relationships with green RSOs across campus, so we can roll out new microgames associated with campus groups and their evolving initiatives. These can be released via updates through the app stores, which takes anywhere from ~1 hour (Google Play store) to ~2 days (iOS App Store) to become available.
We will also make sure that the app continues to run on new-generation phones and tablets. We utilize the Unity game engine, which has frequent updates in order to assure that apps made with the engine can run on state-of-the-art devices.
With 60SS, we aim to expand the perception of 'who does sustainability' by using student-inspired digital games to build connections, both within existing groups and to new students who might not otherwise think about sustainability.
A large body of market research suggests that peer modeling is a powerful motivator for behavior change. This game capitalizes on the power of peer-modeling to influence individual and collective behavior around sustainability. The games will target many, small-scale sustainability actions that students can take, including reducing waste, encouraging composting, energy efficiency, lowering carbon footprint, and joining a green group on campus. The microgames will be linked with the current campaigns of environmental RSO groups. By showcasing a series of individual actions that are connected to the work of student groups, the game will promote social bonding around sustainability values, and individual behavior changes.
For instance, to support the SEED effort to encourage students to wash clothes in cold water using fragrance free powdered detergents, we could design a microgame in which the player changes a washing machine temperature setting to cold, and selects the right detergent within 4 seconds. To help encourage proper waste disposal, we would depict the correct placement of items that when incorrectly sorted cause the most damage at UW, such as e-waste and liquid into paper recycling bins. To raise awareness of the Global Sustainability Initiative's biogas food truck project, we may depict composting food scraps into a digester and lighting the biogas produced.
We will measure the impacts by tracking the number of downloads of the app and the number of showings and people reached at campus events. We will also track involvement of sustainability RSOs using metrics such as the number of microgames produced and participant involvement at different levels.
We will solicit feedback, through surveys, from participating RSO's in two phases:
1) After the design phase, to assess the impact of the participation on the RSOs
2) After launch events, to gauge the response of participants
These survey results from both end-users and RSOs will be summarized in a blog about the process of collaborative sustainability game design.
Our goals for involvement is participation of 8 RSOs, implementation of 15 microgames, 50 students involved in game development, and 1000 downloads of the game in the first 3 months.

Grew up in a small farmers village in the east of Holland. Started illegally working at the age of 15 in a cafe that was home to many artists. This made her realize there is more in life than beers and cows. She exchanged her hometown for Rotterdam to study at the Willem de Kooning Art Academy. In 2011 she interned at Bpigs and started independently organizing exhibitions. It took her until 2014 to realize that Despina was right by saying she would come back to Berlin. She is now combining working for Bpigs with organising Conversas, a series of weekly informal meetings, and studying Cultures of the Curatorial at the HGB in Leipzig. She believes that art and electronic music are Berlin's best ingredients.
