Wisconsin opens up 2018 with a visit from Western Kentucky, what do the Hilltoppers have to bring to the table in year two of the Mike Sanford era?
Andy Coppens
We are now 233 days away from the start of the 2018 Wisconsin Badgers football season, but it is never too early to break down what that season may look like.
In doing so, it is important to understand the opposition the Badgers will face. You can't predict if you don't know what's in front of you.
So, after looking at the offense and defense that could be for Wisconsin, it's now time to look towards what the schedule holds for UW. That's where our crack staff of opposition researchers come in to play.
We give you an in-depth look at the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers after much computing, research and reading on the opening opponent on the Badgers schedule.
Head Coach: Mike Sanford (6-7 2nd season at WKU and overall)
2017 Record: 6-7, 4-4 C-USA
Bowl Game: 27-17 loss to Georgia State in the Cure Bowl
Returning Starters: 4 (Offense), 8 (Defense)
Player to Watch:
Lucky Jackson, WR
With a pass-happy offense still in place for Western Kentucky, this position being the pick shouldn't be a surprise. However, picking Jackson is more about matchup than
If there's been an Achilles heel for the Badgers secondary over the better part of the last decade it has been the propensity to give up big plays. Unfortunately for Wisconsin, the Hilltoppers have one of the better big play receivers it will see all season long in Lucky Jackson.
The soon-to-be junior wide receiver had himself a breakout sophomore season, but you may not know it by the straight numbers. Just 39 receptions, 600 yards and 3 touchdowns on an offense that put up 355.0 yards per game through the air? Ahh, but here's the reason to highlight Jackson — he averaged a ridiculous 15.4 yards per catch. Oh, and he did have a 93-yard TD catch towards the end of 2017, so there's that capability to watch out for in a major way.
Couple that with the fact that Western Kentucky is losing top receiver Nacarius Fant and top tight end Deon Yedler, who combined for 126 receptions, and you see a chance for Jackson to be a huge problem for the Badgers and plenty of other teams going forward.
Wisconsin's Biggest Advantage:
The run game
Could it be any more obvious what the Badgers strength is going to be going in to this game? If not, try an offense that racked up 222.9 yards per game on the ground going up against a defense that sat just 7th in Conference-USA against the run? Giving up 170.3 yards per game in a league with pass-happy offenses everywhere you look isn't a good look.
Wisconsin also returns all five starters up front on the offensive line as well as a Doak Walker award finalist, All-Big Ten and All-American selection in Jonathan Franklin at running back. Add in a hopefully healthy Bradrick Shaw and Chris James as well as the improving Garrett Groshek and the Badgers are deep at the needed positions to pound teams in to submission in 2018.
The Hilltoppers also weren't very stout up front last season and Mike Sanford has tried to tackle that issue with his first full recruiting class. Will that help in a Week 1 matchup against a veteran Badgers squad? Look for Wisconsin to be versatile on offense unlike it was for much of 2017, but you can bet it will be game planning to ground and pound its way through this opening matchup and it should be able to do just that on paper.
On the flip side, even though Wisconsin loses some big pieces to the puzzle in the front seven, it will be going up against a Hilltoppers offense that nearly abandoned the run game last season. Western Kentucky ranked dead last in Conference-USA, averaging just 60.8 yards per game on the ground and only attempted 391 rushes as a team all season long. It's a good way to help break in new starters at defensive end and both outside linebacker positions to say the least.
Wisconsin's Biggest Worry:
Hilltoppers Passing Game vs. UW's secondary
Jeff Brohm may have left Western Kentucky, but his offensive philosophy is alive and well in Bowling Green, Kentucky to say the least. The Hilltoppers averaged a healthy 335.0 yards per game passing last season — good enough to tie for 7th in the nation.
Wisconsin had a solid pass defense in 2017, taking advantage of veterans all over in the starting lineup. That won't be a luxury for Jim Leonhard in his second year at the helm of the Badgers defense. Not only is UW replacing three starters, there are few players with any real game experience to replace them. Only Doynte Carriere-Williams has any meaningful experience of the cornerbacks on UW's roster for 2018 and only D'Cota Dixon returns as a starter from 2017 at all.
Sophomore's Madison Cone, Faion Hicks and Caesar Williams are likely to get first crack at big roles in the secondary, but don't sleep on uber talented incoming freshman Donte Burton for a big role in the secondary.
The good news in this scenario is that the two teams may be on equal footing heading in to this game. Western Kentucky losses senior quarterback Mike White and his over 4,100 yards passing from this past season. Still, the Hilltoppers offense is all about system and losing White may not be as big of a deal as it would be for other teams. Someone is going to step in and someone is still going to be throwing the ball all over the place.
Can Wisconsin come out of the gates strong with a young secondary in 2018?

Badgers fall victim to the trap, lose to Illinois
Andrew Coppens
This is why they don't play the games on paper. On paper, the No. 6 Wisconsin Badgers should have been able to make quick work of a struggling Illinois Fighting Illini team.
Instead, it was a slog for the Badgers offense and Illinois took advantage of three turnovers for 17 points en route to a shocking 24-23 victory.
With the Badgers driving to potentially salt away a hard-fought victory, Jack Coan threw just his second interception of the season and Illinois drove the ball deep in to Wisconsin territory and kicked a game-winning 39-yard field goal as time expired.
Wisconsin's usually rugged run game was off, and the stingy run defense was far from that. Yes, Jonathan Taylor went over the 5,000-yard mark for his career on the first carry of the game, but he would put up just 132 yards on 28 carries on the day and UW's defense allowed a season-worst 141 yards on the ground to Illinois.
Prior to this game, Wisconsin's worst performance on offense was 97 yards against Northwestern.
Taylor's struggles included a brutal turnover, as he gained a first down at the Illinois 17-yard line but coughed up the football trying to fight for extra yardage a third time on the play.
Illinois drove the ball down for a touchdown in just 1:19 of game time and what could've been a three-score game turned in to a 23-21 lead with 5:53 to play.
Wisconsin drove the ball past midfield on the next possession appearing poised to put the game out of Illinois reach again, but stumbled near midfield.
On a 2nd and 11, Coan attempted to drop a pass to Jake Ferguson in between the zone. However, Tony Adams had backed off the underneath and picked off the pass at the Illinois 47-yard line.
From there, Illinois ripped off big run after big run to get themselves in to field goal range and the rest was history.
Ironically, it was Coan who powered the Badgers offense for most of the day, throwing for 263 yards on 24 of 32 passing.
Reggie Corbin and Dre Brown combined for 153 yards on the day for the Illini on 28 carries, and came up huge when they needed it as the game went on.
Illinois outplayed the Badgers up front on both sides of the ball and deserved this win.
This was easily the most shocking loss in the Paul Chryst era and a date with Ohio State looms large if Wisconsin wants to continue to hope to make it to Indianapolis for the Big Ten championship game.
A loss next week and all control of their own destiny goes out the window.
Badgers mid-season report card: Defense
As Saturday's game against Illinois inches closer to kick, it's also a good time to remind ourselves that we are at the halfway point of the 2019 Wisconsin Badgers season.
UW is 6-0 and ranked No. 6 in the country in both polls (if you want to care about those things). So, how did Wisconsin get here and who has been vital to all of that success so far?
Well, we're taking a look back at the first half of the season for you. Earlier this week we took a look at our grades for the Badgers offense. Today, we take a look at the defensive side of the ball.
Defensive Line: A+
One of the biggest question marks coming in to the 2019 season was the UW defensive line. With no Olive Sagapolu and two starting defensive ends coming off of major injuries, how would this group look in 2019? Well, the answer is pretty damn good.
Bryson Williams, the starting nose guard, went down with a bad injury early in the season and in stepped true freshman Keannu Benton, who ripped off back-to-back performances that were rated No. 1 on the team by Pro Football Focus.
Isaiahh Loudermilk had a small injury early on and has been very good since his return, while Garrett Rand is doing work on the other side. Perhaps the biggest story is that this group has been disruptive in a major way.
We've had Matt Henningsen score a touchdown not once, but twice and the defensive linemen have racked up 3.0 sacks to date. Not too bad for a group of unproven, but talented players.
Linebackers: A+
Another big question mark coming in to the year was if the Badgers could get enough pressure from its linebacker group to make a difference in 2019. Last season was a dramatic drop off in sacks and tackles from loss as a team, but there has been no such issue in 2019. j
Zack Baun has been one of the best players in the country through the halfway point of the season. He's put up 26 tackles, has one pick-six, 10.5 tackles for loss and 6.0 sacks (tied for 8th nationally) through the first six games of the season.
It's earned him Pro Football Focus mid-season first-team All-American honors. Considering he didn't produce at nearly this level last season, it's been a huge start for the senior.
On the opposite side of him, we've seen the combination of Izayah Green-May (missed time with a broken thumb) and Noah Burks become dangerous players in their own right. As a team, Wisconsin has put up 23 sacks through six games, which is more than they had in all of 2018 (19.0).
Jack Sanborn has been great and the pairing of him with Chris Orr has unleashed one of the most athletic and dangerous combinations of inside linebackers the Badgers have had since switching to the 3-4 defense when Gary Andersen arrived.
You could not draw up a more productive start to a season from a linebacker group if you tried.
Secondary: A
If you just go by the stats, it is hard to argue that Wisconsin isn't playing some of its best ball against the pass that we've ever seen. I mean, they have allowed a Big Ten low three passing touchdowns and the team has eight overall interceptions, with two going for a defensive touchdown.
But, some of the stats can be misleading, especially those eight interceptions. The good news for the secondary is that five of the eight interceptions are attributed to the defensive backs, with starting safety Eric Burrell picking off a pair of passes.
It isn't just the starting group that has held up well either. Wisconsin has had a next man up mentality and it has worked well. Colin Wilder and John Torchio stepped up when both Burell and fellow safety Reggie Pearson got tossed for hits to the head against Michigan.
Deron Harrell is credited with four pass breakups and Wilder with five to lead the secondary group in that category.
Overall, it's hard to pick apart this group, but if there's one area to watch it is their inconsistency in intermediate and deep balls. Luckily, most offenses don't have enough time to set up a deep passing game so it hasn't been much of a worry at all.
Overall: A+
Let's just go over these stats given up by the Badgers defense once again:
4.8 points per game — ranks 1st in the Big Ten and nationally
44.6 rushing yards per game — ranks 1st in the Big Ten and nationally
129.0 passing yards per game — ranks 1st in the Big Ten and nationally
173.7 total yards per game — ranks 1st in the Big Ten and nationally
In fact, Wisconsin's 173.7 total yards per game given up is 60.3 yards per game better than the next best team — Ohio State — has given up this year.
Given all of that information, how could it not be an A+ so far this season? After all, Wisconsin is the first Big Ten team since the 1962 Minnesota Gophers team to pitch four shutouts in the first six games of a season.
Badgers mid-season report card: Offense
Believe it or not, but we have already reached the middle of the 2019 Wisconsin Badgers football season. I know, it doesn't seem possible because there seems to be so much football ahead.
You would be right, what with Ohio State, Iowa and Minnesota still looming large on the schedule and all.
But, as we want to look forward, we need to know the foundation that future has been built on. How have the Badgers faired so far in 2019? Let's take a look position by position.
Offensive Line: A –
All seems to be rosy for the Badgers offensive line. They've given up a Big Ten-low of eight sacks and are the No. 2 rushing attack in the league, trailing only Ohio State. While you could say the Buckeyes have yet to face a real defense, they still are consistently putting up better numbers than Wisconsin has.
We'll see if that holds up, but on the whole it is hard to argue that this group hasn't been very good. They've dealt with a few injuries and haven't really missed a beat for the most part.
If there's one area that has put them from an A to an A- in my book, it is their performance in the run game against Northwestern and Michigan State at home. In both cases, Jonathan Taylor really struggled to get going and the offensive line found themselves back on their heels quite a bit. Thus, Taylor's struggles.
Yes, both Northwestern and MSU are very good defensive fronts, but if you want to earn the top grades, you have to win more than they did up front against those two defensive lines. That's especially worrisome when you see the defensive fronts that both Ohio State and Iowa can put out there.
This unit is very athletic and certainly can do some special things. But, it needs to be more consistent against high level defenses if the Badgers want to prove they belong in the College Football Playoff conversation. Not having a single member of this group on the Pro Football Focus mid-season All-American list tells me this group hasn't been as good as potentially then can be by the end of the year.
Running Backs: B
Yes, Jonathan Taylor is a Pro Football Focus and everywhere else mid-season All-American and yes, he's en route to break all sorts of historical marks, but there's more to this group than Taylor and for that reason we have to give this group an overall grade of B.
In fact, if you were to take Taylor away from this position group, you would be far lower on the grade. Redshirt freshman Nakia Watson has picked up 53 carries for just 238 yards and is averaging 4.5 yards a carry. While that average isn't bad, Watson hasn't shown any flashes of being the next big star running back at Wisconsin with ample opportunities to do so.
Bradrick Shaw and Garrett Groshek haven't been big factors in the Badgers run game either and Julius Davis appears headed for a complete redshirt. What happens if Taylor goes down? There hasn't been anyone producing at a high enough level to give us confidence that it'll just be "next man up" as we've seen year over year over year at UW since 1990.
John Chenal and Mason Stokke (pre-injury) have been very good fullbacks in the traditional Wisconsin mold, but they could be a bit better at their blocking technique and that will come with time on the field as both are younger options at fullback.
Overall, this group is doing well, I just downgrade for a lack of a second dynamic option at running back so far this year.
Tight Ends: B+
Much was expected out of junior tight end Jake Ferguson, so much so that many believed he would showcase himself and leave for the NFL after this season. After six games, I'm not so sure that is going to happen.
Yes, Ferguson is second on the team with 15 receptions, but he's averaging 11 yards a catch and has just one touchdown to his name. Those numbers pace far behind last season.
There just seems to be something missing from the explosive player we saw in 2018, who caught 36 passes for over 450 yards and had four touchdowns to his name.
On the bright side, Ferguson has become a more reliable blocker and that could be the thing that gets him to the NFL a year early. We'll see what happens the second half of the season though.
As for the rest of the group, it's been hard to grade because injuries have piled up and not a single other tight end as caught a pass for the Badgers so far this season. So, when I look at Ferguson's play, it's hard to not give him a solid grade, but room for improvement and impact in the second half.
Wide Receivers: B-
There is no doubt that getting Quintez Cephus back in a Badgers uniform has been huge. But, with that said, this group has not produced the big plays we'd hope to see after a few years of experience for names like Danny Davis, A.J. Taylor and Kendric Pryor.
Cephus is the only receiver with a touchdown to his name, albeit there have only been eight passing touchdowns on the season. However, the leading TD man is running back Jonathan Taylor, who has four already this year.
Pryor came up big against Michigan State and overall this group has produced well when given the opportunity. But, the inability to get separation and thus stretch the defense holds them back.
Maybe the coaching staff is also holding back what we see from this group, as by-in-large, UW hasn't had to open up the full offense to win a game this season.
Quarterback: A –
Alright, it's time for Badgers nation to eat some crow here. Everyone thought that Coan was the second-coming of Alex Hornibrook after his first efforts last season. But, through the first six games, Coan has been anything but the second-coming of Hornibrook. In fact, you could say he's been the anti-Hornibrook.
He's been clutch, he's making the smart decisions and he's keeping drives alive. Doing that at Wisconsin, with the best running back in college football, is exactly what is needed.
Coan is completing a ridiculous 76.3 percent of his passes, which leads the league and is second nationally only to Joe Burrow at LSU. Now, he has only thrown for 1,119 yards (8th in the B1G) and you could say that isn't great, but consider how he's become a complementary piece to the run game and you can see why his efficiency and clutch play matters more.
Additionally, his eight touchdowns to just one interception ratio is phenomenal. Ohio State's Justin Fields is the only other starter in the Big Ten that has thrown just one pick through the halfway point of the season.
I wanted to give a higher grade, but Coan has struggled to hit the deep ball at times and seems most comfortable hitting the seven to 15-yard passes. That's fine, but having someone to really stretch a defense out of eight-man boxes would be nice.
Maybe I'm nitpicking, but Coan has established himself as the rightful starter and put to bed most of the critics by becoming the go-to force in the win over Michigan State after a shaky couple of weeks against Michigan and Northwestern.
Having three multiple-touchdown games given what Jonathan Taylor is doing on the ground is impressive through six games.
Defense leads Badgers to win over Northwestern
It sure wasn't pretty, but the Wisconsin Badgers took down reigning West division champions, the Northwestern Wildcats just the same.
UW's defense came up big in the 24-15 victory. What happened, which players were the highlights and what needs to be worked on as the 4-0 Badgers go out of conference next week?

Roger Federer vs Kei Nishikori Wimbledon 2019 Preview and Prediction
July 9, 2019 Aaron Higgs Roger Federer, Tennis News 2015, Tennis Previews & Predictions No comments
Share & Comment
Roger Federer can make it 100 wins at Wimbledon if he is victorious in his quarter-final on Wednesday afternoon. The second seed will play Kei Nishikori for a spot in the final four, where he can rekindle his Wimbledon rivalry with Rafael Nadal.
Nishikori has made the best of a weak draw, dropping just one set on his way to the quarter finals. That was against Mikhail Kukushkin on Monday, who he eventually went on to beat 6-3 3-6 6-3 6-4. He was mostly solid on serve in the match, save for a wild opening to the fourth set where there were five straight breaks. The eighth seed has been a model of consistency this year, making the quarter finals now at all three slams so far.
There were plenty predicting that Federer would have a tough time on Monday evening, taking on one of the tour's form players in Matteo Berrettini. As it was, the Italian was overwhelmed from the beginning and Federer needed just 75 minutes to demolish his opponent 6-1 6-2 6-2. "He didn't have his best day. I know that, as well. I was dialed in. I was able to get a lot of balls back, I think because of the conditions as well. I think if it would have been faster, then again we would have seen the match that I was expecting with few chances here and there," Federer said. "I was just able to maybe outmanoeuvre him with my slice. He couldn't hurt me enough with his forehand, which I thought was going to be maybe tough to manage today. Everything seemed to go easier.
"I'm sure that I have to play good tennis to beat Roger, because he's best player on the grass, I think he seems to be playing good this week, past two weeks, so… I'm sure it's going to be tough. But I feel like I am very confident this week, playing good tennis." Nishikori said. Nishikori did win their last match at the World Tour Finals in 2018 but has otherwise struggled, going 3-7 against the Swiss.
Federer is going to face a tougher test than he did on Monday but is still the heavy favourite to advance to yet another semi-final but the slower courts may even the stakes a little. Coming into the quarter finals, Federer's overall ace count is rather low and he currently has even less aces than Nadal after four matches played.
Prediction – Roger Federer in four sets

Q: Passing string into jni CallObjectMethod from c++ I have narrowed down my problem as much as I can but have come to a standstill. Using JNI, I am attempting to call a jmethod on an instance of a jobject in c++ where the java implementation takes a string as an argument. The layout of my code looks like:
jstring text = env->NewStringUTF("Text to parse")
jclass Parser = getClass(env, "ParserClassPath"); //Invokes FindClass
jmethodID parse = env->GetMethodID(Parser, "parse", "(Ljava/lang/String;)LPathToReturnClass;"
jobject ParserInstance = invokeObj(env, Parser); //Custom method returns class object after calling its constructor
jobject model = env->CallObjectMethod(ParserInstance, parse, text) // I believe problem is in this call

The problem, I believe is showing itself inside of the CallObjectMethod inside jni.h. When debugging, before I enter CallObjectMethod, text has a value of some memory location like 0x1ba4a238. The CallObjectMethod in jni.h looks like:
jobject CallObjectMethod(jobject obj, jmethodID methodID, ...) {
        va_list args;
        jobject result;
        va_start(args,methodID);
        result = functions->CallObjectMethodV(this,obj,methodID,args); //Check args here
        va_end(args);
        return result;
    }

upon reaching the "Check args here" comment line, In the debugger, args shows a value of some memory location and a bunch of random characters 0x00d3fd7c "#&\@a1\2$"
My Question is, should these characters be the memory location or string I passed? If not, Is my passing of arguments correct or is there some other type I need to be using? I do not have a real understanding of what is happening at this level in the code, so if someone could help me understand what exactly this call is doing that would be helpful as well.

Il Giudizio universale è un affresco di Giotto, databile al 1306 circa e facente parte del ciclo della Cappella degli Scrovegni a Padova. Occupa l'intera controfacciata e conclude idealmente le Storie. Viene di solito riferito all'ultima fase della decorazione della cappella e vi è stato riscontrato un ampio ricorso di aiuti, sebbene il disegno generale sia riferito concordemente al maestro.

Descrizione

Impaginazione
La grande parete sopra la porta di ingresso, in cui si apre una trifora, contiene un'ampia rappresentazione del Giudizio universale svolto in maniera tradizionale, anche se non mancano innovazioni. Infatti, nonostante il permanere di stilizzazioni tradizionali come le diverse scale proporzionali, Giotto cercò di unificare in un'unica scena l'intera rappresentazione del Giudizio, del Paradiso e dell'Inferno, abolendo le suddivisioni e coinvolgendo tutte le figure in un unico spazio.

Nelle rappresentazioni più antiche infatti, come quella in Sant'Angelo in Formis, a Torcello o nella cupola del Battistero di Firenze, le figure sono sempre organizzate in settori orizzontali, completamente separate dalle une alle altre.

Cristo
Al centro campeggia, dentro una mandorla iridata retta da angeli, un grande Cristo giudice che domina un unico grande scenario, non più diviso rigidamente in fasce parallele come nei lavori bizantini. Nell'aureola di Cristo sono stati scoperti nell'ultimo restauro inserti con specchietti, che vanno messi in relazione con la figura dell'Eterno sul lato opposto della cappella, dove c'è la scena di Dio invia l'arcangelo Gabriele. Cristo non siede su un vero e proprio trono, ma su una sorta di nube iridata, sotto la quale si trovano alcune rappresentazioni simboliche, già interpretate come i simboli degli evangelisti. Uno studio più recente vi ha invece riconosciuto qualcosa di più complesso: vi si vedono un angelo, un uomo con testa leonina, un centauro, simbolo secondo i bestiari medievali della doppia natura di Cristo, umana e divina, e un orso con un pesce (forse un luccio), simbolo della pesca delle anime oppure, al contrario, del sacrificio di Cristo (il pesce) per redimere la bestialità della razza umana.

Gesù rappresenta il fulcro dell'intera scena, che genera l'inferno con la sinistra dell'aura e rivolge lo sguardo e la mano destra agli eletti. Verso di lui (o contro di lui nel caso dei dannati) tendono a orientarsi tutti i nuclei delle figure. Tutto di lui è aperto verso gli eletti, alla sua destra: lo sguardo, la piaga, il costato, mentre la sinistra è chiusa sui reprobi dell'inferno. Intorno alla mandorla stanno i serafini. In trono, a semicerchio intorno a Gesù ci sono i dodici apostoli. Alla destra di Cristo: Pietro, Giacomo, Giovanni, Filippo, Simone e Tommaso. Alla sua sinistra: Matteo, Andrea, Bartolomeo, Giacomo minore, Giuda Taddeo e Mattia. La trifora non è solo apertura luminosa (Cristo è luce) ma soprattutto è trono da quale Dio uno trino scende e giudica. I due fiorellini, posti nella trifora, di sei petali ciascuno, corrispondono numerologicamente ai due gruppi di sei apostoli scesi con Lui.

Angeli, apostoli e gruppo dell'offerta
In alto si trovano nove affollate schiere angeliche, divise in due gruppi simmetrici e in file che scalano in profondità; la diversa inclinazione delle teste cerca di sfuggire all'appiattimento della visione frontale, mentre al centro si allineano su troni gli apostoli: lo scranno più riccamente decorato è quello di san Pietro. Alla sinistra: angeli, Arcangeli, Principati, Potestà. Alla destra: virtù, dominazioni, troni, cherubini, ciascuno guidato dai vessilliferi. Michele e Gabriele più vicini a Cristo-Giudice reggono la spada ed il vessillo bianco-crociato dei Cavalieri del Santo Sepolcro.

Ai lati della mandorla angeli suonano le trombe dell'Apocalisse risvegliando i morti, che si levano dai crepacci della terra in basso a sinistra. Poco oltre si trova la rappresentazione di Enrico degli Scrovegni e di un altro personaggio (forse il canonico e arciprete del Duomo di Padova Altegrado de' Cattanei) che offrono un modello della cappella a Maria accompagnata da san Giovanni e santa Caterina d'Alessandria. Maria è mediatrice tra la fragilità umana e la misericordiosa giustizia divina.  La forma dell'edificio è fedele a quella esistente, anche se l'abside mostra un ampio giro di cappelle mai realizzato. Secondo la tradizione, con tale offerta Enrico lava il peccato di usura della sua famiglia, così noto che anche Dante Alighieri aveva indicato suo padre tra i peccatori nel girone degli usurai dell'Inferno. La fisionomia di Enrico è giovanile e riproduce fedelmente le fattezze che, invecchiate, si vedono anche nella sua tomba marmorea presente nella cappella: per questo la rappresentazione di Giotto viene indicata come il primo ritratto dell'arte occidentale post-classico.

Un raggio di luce ogni 25 marzo (anniversario della consacrazione della cappella) passa tra la mano di Enrico e quella della Madonna.

Nella parte più alta dell'affresco si trovano gli astri del sole e della luna, mossi da due arcangeli che, curiosamente, si affacciano da nubi "staccando" e arrotolando il cielo come se fosse una pesante carta da parati. Essi rivelano alle loro spalle le mura dorate e tempestate di gemme della Gerusalemme celeste.

La prima schiera degli eletti è in cattivo stato di conservazione. Preceduta da due angeli, contiene una Vergine Maria giovane e bruna, che sembra accompagnare per mano verso Cristo il primo della fila, forse Giovanni Battista. Tra le figure si riconoscono dubitativamente alcuni santi come san Giuseppe, Gioacchino, san Simeone.

Paradiso e Inferno
Nelle fasce inferiori, divise dalla croce retta da due angeli, sono messi in scena il paradiso, a sinistra, e l'inferno a destra. Il primo mostra una serie ordinata di angeli, santi e beati (tra cui forse i santi "recenti" come Francesco d'Assisi e Domenico di Guzmán), mentre nel secondo i dannati vengono tormentati dai diavoli e avvolti dalle fiamme che si sprigionano dalla mandorla di Cristo. Dalla mandorla sgorgano quattro fiumi infernali che trascinano nell'abisso gruppi di dannati spinti da plumbei demoni. Il primo fiume travolge gli usurai, caratterizzati dal bianco sacchetto di sporco denaro legato al collo (Reginaldo degli Scrovegni, usuraio e padre di Enrico, è posto da Dante Alighieri nel canto XVII dell'Inferno). Più in basso, impiccato e sventrato, sta Giuda Iscariota. A sinistra di Cristo Giudice, in basso, sta Lucifero con artigli bestiali e due bocche ed un serpente che gli esce dalle orecchie (modello è il Lucifero di Coppo di Marcovaldo nei mosaici del battistero di Firenze). Sta straziando alcune anime e siede sul trono del biblico Leviatan, emblema del male di questo mondo.

Lo schema delle pene e dei gironi si rifà a tradizioni diverse dall'Inferno di Dante, come l'Elucidarium di Onorio di Autun. Di proporzioni piccolissime i dannati formicolano tra le angherie a cui i diavoli scimmieschi li sottopongono, esposti al ludibrio e alla berlina, denudati, violati, appesi per i capelli o per i genitali, scherniti e torturati.

Al caos dell'Inferno, per contrapposizione, a destra stanno gli eletti. Dal basso all'alto si nota una schiera tripartita: anime che escono stupite ed oranti dalla terra; la grande processione degli eletti (clero, popolo, donne e uomini che hanno santificato la loro vita); sopra, guidati da Maria, gli antichi santi dell'Antico Testamento e della Chiesa primitiva.

Una tradizione indica nella quarta persona in primo piano nella schiera dei beati, con un berretto bianco in capo, un autoritratto di Giotto.

Stile
Le parti migliori, ritenute con maggiore probabilità autografe, sono il Cristo, la Madonna e il gruppo dell'offerta; altre figure, soprattutto nelle schiere angeliche e degli eletti, sono di più difficile valutazione per lo stato di conservazione in parte compromesso.

In generale si ha una riduzione nello scarto delle proporzioni gerarchiche: nella tradizione medievale si tendeva a scalare le figure in base alla loro importanza religiosa, ma come si vede nel gruppo dell'offerta il committente e il suo aiutante appaiono qui quasi della stessa dimensione dei santi.

Q: Change Div Style by using JavaScript without page reloading I am tried to change the background color for div by using JavaScript, but the changes didn't applied because when I press on button
the browser make reload for the page and restore to default setting without change.
How I can change the background color for div without page reload or the changes applied?

A: Page reloads because your button is inside a form and when you click it - you submit the form.
Inside the onclick function you need to prevent default action, just end with:
return false;

If you ask why: submit is default button type:

Button types:

*

*submit: The button submits the form data to the server. This is the default if the attribute is not specified, or if the attribute is
dynamically changed to an empty or invalid value.

*reset: The button resets all the controls to their initial values.

*button: The button has no default behavior. It can have client-side scripts associated with the element's events, which are
triggered when the events occur.

Recommended readings:

*

*HTML Button element

*How to prevent buttons from submitting forms

A: Here's some code using jQuery that changes the background without reloading:
<!doctype html>

  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>Changing DIV Background Color</title>

<button id="change_background">Click Me</button>

Today, Emancipet celebrates World Spay Day! This is especially exciting because just this week, Emancipet reached an amazing milestone – we performed our 250,000th spay or neuter surgery! I'm thrilled that our Houston clinic is the reason we got there so quickly.
In May 2015, Emancipet opened a clinic in Houston's East End, which is has one of the most challenging stray pet problems in the country. City officials estimate there are 1.2 million stray dogs and cats in our city. As a longtime Houston resident and now Emancipet's local leader, what I have witnessed in Houston should be unacceptable anywhere. It breaks my heart to see so many homeless and suffering dogs and cats in the place I call home – especially when we know that access to affordable spay/neuter is the solution!
The problem isn't going to be solved overnight, but we're committed to helping to transform Houston's underserved neighborhoods into humane communities where every pet owner has access to safe, affordable spay/neuter and veterinary care, and stray and homeless pets are rare.
Things are already getting better for pets and people in Houston, just as they did in Austin where Emancipet got started, and in Killeen, where we've been for the last two years, and in Philadelphia, where we are going next.
I hope you'll come see us if you are in Houston, or any of the cities Emancipet now calls home. More importantly, I hope you'll help us in the movement to keep pets and people together, and out of animal shelters. Spay/Neuter is the best way to do that!

Mexican Independence Day in Los Cabos!
This day in September beholds one of the most spectacular times to be had in Los Cabos: Mexican Independence Day!
Each year celebrations begin on the 15th with local public officials performing reenactments of Miguel Hidalgo's 1810 Grito de Dolores. Hidalgo, a priest in the town of Dolores, called for a revolution. His cry marked the beginning of an 11 year struggle ending with the victory of Mexico gaining independence from Spain.
In honor of Hidalgo's cry and the symbolism it held, officials all over Mexico will reenact the moment, chanting "Viva Mexico, Viva Mexico, Viva Mexico!" at 11pm. Thereafter, communities gather together to eat, drink, listen to live music and watch firework shows.
In the country's capitol, the Mexican president will speak to the country from a balcony in Mexico City's famous "zocalo," or main plaza. Like the city officials, he also will end with the cry, "Viva Mexico," or, "long live Mexico." He will then host a midnight dinner as the nation parties into the morning.
The 16th is the actual "Independence Day," and Cabo as well as other cities around the country begin the day with parades and continued fun. Las fiestas patrias, or patriotic celebrations carry on through the entire month of September.
In Los Cabos you can find grito reenactments performed in both Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo.
Unbeknownst to visitors, THIS is the real holiday they are looking for when they travel to Mexico on the 5th of May, Cinco de Mayo, and find that the party isn't happening. While the 5th is a special day commemorating a battle against the French in the town of Puebla, it is not even a work holiday.
In contrast, all of Mexico is prepped and buzzing in the days leading up to Independence Day. Towns are cleaned up, patriotic colored banners fly on every monument and you can't go anywhere without green white and red staring at you from every corner.
It's the perfect time for tourists to show up for a party that lasts for days!
Stereotypical Mexican garb is the preferred dress, including panchos, large sombreros and, of course, fake bushy mustaches. Anyone celebrating is likely to have the country colors painted across their faces and bodies – children included.
Whether you find yourself in the capitol surrounded by massive crowds, in a little town wanting of tourists or in Cabo San Lucas, you will have the time of your life as you experience the great patriotism and happy commemoration of Mexican culture. Pack your largest sombrero. If you don't have one, no worries: there will be plenty for sale no matter where you go!
Independence Day is an important day for the people of Mexico. Many of them are embracing their culture not just on one day but rather throughout the entirety of each year, recognizing the importance of valuing the spirit of pride, joy and resilience.
Visitors and non-citizen residents are welcome and Cabo finds itself filled with people of from all countries and all walks of life, all shouting Viva!


Water screens, holographic projections and 4D effects, Ralph Lauren's polo presentation last night took place on a revolutionary runway.
Inspired by Lauren Bacall, NARS makeup artist James Boehmer gave models at Naeem Khan's S/S '15 show a touch of 'old Hollywood' glamour (cue impeccable skin, fluttery lashes, and fabulous curls) but re-created in a modern, un-done way.
Complexions were polished (but not over-powdered) and lips gently stained (with NARS Ingrid Audacious lipstick, £24), rather than perfect-looking.
The result? Pretty fabulous, we'd say.


Purchase only high quality circuit boards; look for descriptions on the side of them. Please note that lower quality boards are difficult to assemble and it can not be guaranteed that they will work.
Not able to solder; find place which can fix electronics. Generally speaking only three items needs soldering: clamps which are a part of the arduino NANO, main socket and switch off with cables. Please note that incorrect soldering can create a lot of issues.
When you are soldering slot and switch off, please carefully file joint.
1. Issue with compiling sketch (Compiling can be completed by selecting first button on the left, marked as V).
Tools -> Port -> relevant COM (usually there is only one).
Then check if it works.

Can we model creativity and could it be the result of computation? Would we want creative computers, and why? Are artificial intelligence and artificial creativity really different?
We are excited to present a two-hour lecture by our Media Technology staff member Maarten Lamers on Artificial Creativity. Maarten Lamers' academic career started with a focus on neural networks and their use in data analysis and image processing. Over the year his interests have expanded in the domains of bio-digital hybrid systems, scientific playfulness, artificial creativity and DIY science. In 2015, he was placed by national magazine Vrij Nederland on their first-ever list of "101 most interesting nerds" of The Netherlands.
Ever since people have considered intelligent machines, they have also considered whether machines could be creative. In fact, questions surrounding artificial creativity are closely linked to those of artificial intelligence. This lecture takes a historical computer sciences view on artificial creativity.
Maarten's lecture happens in parallel to our Semester Project exhibition with the title AUTO in Old School.


As nonprofit leaders and staff, it seems that there's always more to do and never enough time to do it. So looking after your organization's technology - an area that might be out of your comfort zone - is one more thing that might slide down the priority list.
On the other had, technology is extremely important for any organization, no matter what your mission. Good technology helps you to be more efficient - to save time and reduce duplication. It also helps you to be more effective - to increase the impact of your work.
The roof represents the mission of your organization - your goals, what you are trying to achieve. The pillars represent your programs and services - the activities that you go about in order to achieve your mission. Which leaves your administration and shared services: the foundation of your organization. For most organizations this includes finance, communications, marketing, fundraising (no, fundraising isn't a pillar, it's part of the foundation), and technology.
Seen in that light, building a strong technology foundation is a necessity for your programs and ultimately your mission to succeed. Of course as nonprofits on a limited budget, we can't afford all the newfangled technology bells and whistles, even if they would be nice to have. On the other hand, it's worth considering how much staff time is lost on a day-to-day basis in wrestling with old or uncooperative technology?
Now it's one thing to know all this, it's another thing to be able to change it. Since the first step in changing is to reflect on where you are at right now, I created a simple technology self-assessment to help you organize and prioritize your needs. If you have the resources it's great to do a more in-depth assessment, however my goal is to make it easy for any organization, no matter where they are at, to get started with tech planning.
You can download the tech self-assessment here.
This is the first version of this tool, so please share your comments below on whether you found it useful and how to improve it. As well, if you are interested in using this self-assessment with your members or a group of organizations, please let us know so we can learn from your experience and improve the assessment.
Update: version 2 of the tech self-assessment is now available.

In the aftermath of the 26 December, 2004 tsunami, several quantitative predictions of inundation for historic events were presented at international meetings differing substantially from the corresponding well-established paleotsunami measurements. These significant differences attracted press attention, reducing the credibility of all inundation modeling efforts. Without exception, the predictions were made using models that had not been benchmarked. Since an increasing number of nations are now developin...

Coffee drinkers know that a quality cup of coffee can make or break a day. Whether it's Starbucks, Dunkin, Costa, or a home brew, coffee serves as a crucial part of a coffee addict's day. There's nothing worse than running late or a crowded cafe forcing you to bypass your favorite caffeinated beverage in order to stick to a schedule. One Kickstarter project wants to make sure you always have time for coffee even if you're on the go. The Mokase smartphone cover brews espresso using your phone.
The external attachment uses espresso-filled cartridges and stores 25ml of water. It uses its lithium-ion battery to heat the water from 15 degrees centigrade to 50-60 degrees in just eight seconds. Simply insert the espresso wafer, start the process on the device's companion app, and prep the foldable espresso cup.
The company says resistors concentrate the heat so that it doesn't affect the user's smartphone battery in any way. The tubing for the espresso itself also uses a special aluminium-silicon blend to withstand high temperatures without ruining your smartphone.
Mokase covers can fit various devices from Samsung, LG, Huawei, and Apple. From the patent-pending design, it doesn't appear that the cases will vary in size or water capacity from brand to brand. For Americans, this isn't a massive cup of joe or a Venti Starbucks order. This espresso boasts Italian simplicity.The only downside is that a 25ml shot is slightly less than a standard espresso shot of one ounce or 29ml.
But what about the coffee? The company swears it's some of the finest Italian espressos around. The Mokase pods use "quality coffee" from Naples, and you can get it in three blends. There's a classic roast, a toasted variety, and Arabic coffee. Mokase's makers said that if the product is a success, they'll add a sugared option into the mix.
As of now, the case comes in two colors -- white and black. The company says it will come in more colors after the launch as well as more configurations (which we're assuming means a tighter fit specific to different phone brands).
The Mokase hasn't made too much headway on its Kickstarter venture, however. It's barely $4,000 into its $82,000 goal, and the campaign has roughly 40 days left. But, if you're an espresso addict looking to test it out, a pledge of $54 (49 Euro) will give you one Mokase cover with the pod. Estimated retail price for the system is 80 Euro. The company promises to start shipping out units by September this year.

Sennheiser HD 202 review
These closed-back cans are a great bargain buy Tested at £26.00
By What Hi-Fi? 31 January 2011
Great sound for the money makes these closed-back cans a brilliant bargain buy
Extremely capable all-round audio for the very affordable price
more than reasonable styling and build quality
Slightly tighter bass would be a bonus
Sennheiser HD 202 deals
Sennheiser HD 202 II...
Exciting as it is to test and play with high-tech, high-end hi-fi, there's something rather thrilling about discovering a real budget belter of a product, which is exactly what we've got here in the form of the Sennheiser HD 202s.
At just £26 (and we've seen them for even less) they cost less than even the most frugal of Friday nights on the town, yet they'll last a heck of a lot longer than even the most apocalyptic of hangovers.
What you get here is a pair of over-ear headphones of the closed-back, commuter-friendly kind. They don't look particularly special, but they certainly don't look cheap, either, and the firm but comfortable fit means they shouldn't fly off your head unless you have to break into a serious sprint for the tube.
Pleasantly spacious and airy
What's really impressive, though, is the way the HD 202s sound. Naturally the audio's a little more enclosed than that from an open-backed pair, but by the standards of the closed-back class these are pleasantly spacious and airy, yet they combine that with lovely vocal focus and instrument clarity.
They're fun, too, crisply attacking the bubbly bounce of Vampire Weekend's A-Punk, and there's confident tonal balance and control throughout.
It would be wrong to get carried away, of course: there's only so much a pair of headphones at this price can do, and spending more will buy you better, but for this money our only complaint is a little softness in the otherwise impressively deep bass.
A great way to spend £26
The only other thing to note is that Sennheiser sees the HD 202s as a pair of headphones for inside the house as well as outside, so (as well as including a 6.3mm adapter) has used a 3m cable, which is rather awkward when on the go.
There's a 'winder' in the box with a belt-clip that neatens things up somewhat, but don't expect anything high-tech. We'll happily deal with that, though, because we're otherwise rather hard-pressed to think of a better way to spend £26.

While I have enjoyed all the figures in the Song of Ice and Fire game, the cavalry units in particular really appeal to me . I love cavalry forces, as you can probably tell by my Lord of the Rings armies!
The Lannister cavalry is particularly ornate, and I have some very fun plans for the painting on these. Of course, it all starts with basing, and I went through the same process on this movement tray as I did with previous units.
After a few rounds of Badger Stynlrez primer, they are all set for painting!!
I will be making some tutorial videos for the Lannister cavalry as well, since there's going to be a lot of dramatic freehand on the barding, blankets and cloaks.


Nearing age 90 now, Henry Kissinger has set down in a new book his extraordinary challenge four decades ago, when he brought together Mao Tse-tung, the giant of the peasant revolution, with the dedicated anti-Communist,Richard M. Nixon. On China (Penguin Press, $36), whatever else it purports to be, is at its core the former secretary of state's reflections on the most imaginative and elegantly fashioned diplomatic initiative of his career – and of his time.
The historical line Kissinger traces after establishing what he calls China's "singularity" runs through the 18th and 19th century arrival of Western legations, the Opium Wars of the early 1840s, the decline, confusion, and eventual collapse in 1911 of the Qing (the last imperial dynasty), and the subsequent turmoil that opened the way to the Chinese Communist Party and eventually Mao's arrival in Beijing in 1949. After that, the book reveals itself ever more as a preamble to Kissinger's entrance in Mao's later years.
That said, Kissinger's appreciation of history has its limitations. Mao, for example, is portrayed as founder of a new dynasty. Well, yes and no. Mao drew on the past, but surreptitiously. We now know he read the classics in the evening, but in public he repudiated the Confucian ethos as one of the "four olds" — a chain around China's neck.
Even in his field of primary interest — strategic diplomacy — Kissinger comes across as other than a scholarly historian. He is too mild in his account of the Opium Wars and the naked thrust of 19th century imperialism they reflected. Equally, Kissinger seems to miss the powerful psychological impact of the West's arrival in the Middle Kingdom. The shock of discovering that their country was no longer the middle of anything is one the Chinese are still trying to overcome, and no comprehensive accounting of China as we know it can leave this out.
The heart of On China lies in the chapters concerning the Nixon visit. Here the tone changes to something closer to memoir or reminiscence, lending the text a new liveliness. The detail is first hand and Kissinger's eye for diplomatic subtlety is evident. "We soon discovered that our Chinese hosts had designed an almost improbably leisurely schedule," he writes of his initial (and secret) visit in July 1971, "as if to signal that after surviving more than two decades of isolation, they were in no particular hurry to conclude a substantive agreement." Subsequently, Kissinger renders vivid portraits of Zhou Enlai, Mao's famed foreign minister, and of the Helmsman himself.
It's an extraordinary observation from a diplomat known, somewhat, for his vanity. And one is not so sure about it in any case. What we now call the Nixon-in-China effect — a conservative rather than a liberal crossing the ideological lines —surely helped the Nixon White House sell the China gambit at home, where "Who lost China?" was still considered a legitimate Cold War question.
On China ends with Kissinger's reflections on the future of ties across the Pacific. The breakthrough he structured rested on a common foe and shared geo-political interests. Neither now exists as it did, and Kissinger sees a comprehensive framework for Sino-American relations as a task still in need of completion. He sees the evolution of a "Pacific community" based on "parallel national aspirations" and "consultation and mutual respect." It's an optimistic view, as these spongy phrases suggest. We aren't there yet, in any case. And one has to wonder why, 40 years after the Nixon-Kissinger initiative and with an extensive economic interdependence in place, angst and suspicion remain so much a part of the thinking on both sides of the ocean.


Standing in front of an audience, Jeff Nichols (Sean William Scott) relives the day that motivated him to get sober. On that fateful day 10 years ago, Jeff botched a job interview because he panicked over the color of his shirt; almost got hit by a train and sank his stepfather's yacht while fishing.
Jeff is an avid participant in various recovery meetings around New York City. In his "shares" he attempts to justify his problems citing a litany of real and self-diagnosed syndromes: ADD; assorted learning disabilities; Tourette's syndrome; and a balance problem. He's nearly 30 and dependent on his mother, Cynthia, and his stepfather, Dan, for financial support. He can't even keep his phone turned on.

Brett White appointed as Raiders NRL Assistant Coach
raiders.com.au
Tue 3 Oct 2017, 03:21 PM
The Canberra Raiders have appointed the clubs NYC Coach Brett White as Assistant Coach for the next two seasons, replacing Dean Pay, who finished with the club to take up the Head Coaching role with the Bulldogs.
White joined the club from the Melbourne Storm as a player in 2011, retiring at the end of 2014. He then joined the Raiders Coaching staff in 2015 before becoming Head Coach of the clubs NYC team in 2016, a position he continued this year.
White said he can't wait to continue his career working with the Green Machine and said he's looking forward to the challenges and next phase of his career as a Coach.
"I'm extremely excited, this is the club I grew up following and I was lucky to play for the Raiders. To now be a part of the coaching staff is a great honour," White said. "To be able to work alongside Mick Crawley and Ricky Stuart is fantastic, they are two of the smartest individuals I have worked with.
"Pre-season can't come quick enough, I wish the season kicked off next week. We're all keen to get back into the swing of things and make sure we all fulfil our potential."
Raiders Coach Ricky Stuart said White embodied the culture and work ethic of what he wants his players to aspire to and said he viewed him as a Coach on the rise.
"The one thing that I like is that he's a Raider. He's played at the club and he's got that understanding of our fabric and what we're trying to build," Stuart said. "He had a culture that as a player I want in my current players, he's got a great work ethic, he's very professional and I think he's got a very bright future as a Coach."
Stuart said White had been approached by the Melbourne Storm at the beginning of the season to take on a coaching role in Melbourne, but knocked back the approach to remain at the Raiders.
"Brett showed a sense of trust in what we're looking to achieve at this club and for him to stick loyal and knock back a big job like that shows he cares about our organisation," Stuart said. "He gets the job because he's a very diligent and thorough worker, a smart coach and has a great rapport with the players he's coached at the club which is a good thing."

After many years of navigating the creeks, backbays, streams, and lakes, I decided to go ahead and take the boat course offered by the Coast Guard Auxilary. Then I will have a certificate that will soon be required. I am very suprised at how much there is to learn, and how much I didnt know about water safety, and tips on handling emergent situations. This course is actualy fun! it is 20 hours, 10 weeks at 2 hours a class. I was always just an ole hillbilly heading for the water in my boat, now I got a whole new perspective. I never even owned a VHF radio or used one till I just now bought one. I don't even own a cell phone. If you get a chance, consider taking a course on boating. Capt Williecrab, creek explorer in the 21'rst century.
Congrats on completing the Safety course!
Nice going, I bet you feel safer.

I wonder sometimes if MARVEL has a time machine and goes into the future to see what will be going on in the world. In the past week we have seen the tragedy in Japan and now the U.N. is taking actions against Colonel Gadhafi in Libya. It would seem that Marvels Fear Itself event is timed perfectly for this, which is why the P.O.W. for March 16th is Fear Itself: Prologue Book of the Skull , One -Shot.

If you fancy yourself an expert Tetris 99 player, you might want to brush up on your skills. Nintendo has announced that a new "Maximus" tournament will be taking place this weekend with a prize of 999 Gold My Nintendo coins for 999 lucky winners. Running from March 8 at 5 am PST until March 10 at 11:59 pm PST, the contest tasks players with receiving as many wins as possible during the allotted time.
Those that win will see "Tetris Maximus" on the results screen, which indicates their win is being tallied up. Nintendo will announce the winners on March 24, 2019, and they'll receive their moon money shortly after. 999 Gold Coins comes out to roughly $10 USD, so that could be a free indie game or two if you catch a good sale.
The contest is limited to residents of the US, Mexico, and Canada (excluding Quebec). There is a ridiculously long rule and eligibility list over on Nintendo's official site, but I've basically given you all the information you'll need. I don't stand a chance in hell in this contest, so I won't even bother giving it a shot. To everyone else, I wish you luck.

I abhor people who have the nerve to hurt fellow human beings. I abhor it more when children and women fall prey to ruthless criminals. I was watching a television segment one night and I was amused at how cases were easily solved. If this cases were easily solved, it is either the victims or respondents have great lawyers who can really prosecute and or defend their clients and bring out the naked truth. For domestic violence cases, there is no room to lose hope. There are great lawyers out there waiting to offer their expert services. For a San Diego Domestic Violence Case, for instance, one can contact the San Diego's top criminal defense law firm to defend and or prosecute his or her case. I am sure if respondents of domestic violence cases are prosecuted and meted with the penalty of imprisonment, no doubt that people who are prone to doing this will have second thoughts of committing domestic violence acts, again.
