Comic-Con International
July 21, 2016 by Arnaldo Reyes Leave a Comment
It used to be that when you mentioned Comic-Con, it was only referencing San Diego. However, in the past decade, pop culture has evolved and, with so many "comic-con's", one has to be more specific.
Comic-Con International is THE Comic-Con.
There isn't any that actually comes close to the massive convention that takes over San Diego, CA every year. As the gaming industry and Hollywood have jumped on board, the Con has developed and now focuses on more than just comics making it a behomoth of a convention. In fact, Comic-Con International has grown so large that the San Diego Convention Center can no longer contain it, spilling into the streets and nearby hotels in downtown San Diego (even the San Diego Public Library has panels this year!).
Since we all know how big it's become, let's get to what we can expect this year. Due to personal reasons, I can't make it to the event this time (my nice Walking Dead press badge is sitting on my kitchen table), but I am more than happy to share what I know and what to expect each day.
Outside of Twitter and Facebook, you can follow live from Comic-Con from the likes of ScreenJunkies Central (YouTube), Marvel.com/sdcc2016, twitch.tv/skybound, and comic-conhq.com. Some will be comics related, others movies and shows, and some breaking news as they come.
Whether you are attending Comic-Con, or following from afar, here is what you can keep an eye out for this weekend when it comes to movies and TV.
Expect news and chatter from CBS Tevlevision presentation early in the day. However, even with Dreamworks presenting on the first day, I expect most of the news and conversation will be from Netflix/Marvel Luke Cage series. That panel is near the end of the day, so expect news, descriptions of footage and how the series can stack up next to Daredevil and Jessica Jones.
Marvel's Agents of Shield will be on hand discussing what happened in Season 3 and also what to expect in Season 4 (perhaps a fiery skull faced motorcycle rider?)
As great as that news might be, the big guns of TV will take center stage on Friday as The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones will be the talk of Hall H.
Also, Friday evening is the world premiere of WB/DC Animated Batman: The Killing Joke that sees the return of Mark Hamill as The Joker, Kevin Conroy as Batman, and Tara Strong as Batgirl/Barbara Gordon. This title remains a very popular comic book that many fans have been clamoring for, and one of the few Joker origin stories that many refer back to. Batman: The Killing Joke will also have a one-time theatrical debut on Monday July 25 or, if you don't have tickets, you can also wait until it comes out on digital or Blu-ray.
As the biggest day of the event. If you are in San Diego, this has to be the one day where you looked at the schedule and channeled your inner Luke Skywalker "NOOOOOOOOOO". For TV shows, the day features: Once Upon a Time; Supergirl; Flash; Arrow; Vampire Diaries; Grimm; DC's Legends of Tomorrow. That is one heck of a lineup all in Ballroom 20. So expect announcements and confirmations all throughout the day. One thing I'm looking out for with these, are the rumors true that Batwoman and Oracle will be debuting on season 2 of Supergirl? We shall see!
Well, the TV shows are just the appetizer. Saturday is the big Hall H day as well. Warner Bros. will start the day off with a monstrous 3 hour slot that includes Wonder Woman, Suicide Squad, Lego Batman, King Arthur and Kong: Skull Island. One film that's surprisingly missing though is Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. One would think that bringing back the world of Harry Potter would be a no brainer, but the film does not appear on their schedule. Either way, Wonder Bros. is sure to have the talk of the day.
Star Trek, which had their premiere Wednesday evening, has the unfortunate task of following Warner Bros. After them, it's a 30th anniversay panel of Aliens, and one of the most recent popular additions is Entertainment Weekly's Women who Kick Ass.
However, the final big presentation of the day belongs to Marvel Studios. We are for certain that Dr. Strange and Guardians of the Galaxy 2 will be shown. Fans can also expect something from Thor: Ragnarok, as well as possible details on Black Panther film and of course, Spiderman: Homecoming. Marvel never dissappoints, so stay tuned Saturday night as I'm sure social media will be on a frenzy over what happened at the Marvel Studios presentation.
This is the "Get the last deals before you leave" day… but contrary to popular belief, there are still panels.
Hungover from his Marvel Studios Dr. Strange panel the night before, Benedict Cumberbatch will be on hand for Sherlock, followed by Supernatural. And well, actually, that's it, so maybe Sunday is deals day!
Well, there you have it, what to expect this weekend. Follow ScreenFish on Facebook as we will try to share any breaking news we hear.

DC Super Hero Girls: Hero of the Year
June 9, 2016 by Arnaldo Reyes Leave a Comment
If you haven't had the opportunity to watch, or didn't have any clue that they existed, the DC Super Hero Girls franchise has had a series of shorts on YouTube dating back to last year. With recent pushes in merchandise, DC is making the cautious effort to bring these superheroes to young girls, and they are doing a good job at it, for the most part. I feel they would have a bigger impact if the episodes were not just limited to three to five minutes (think My Little Pony). Maybe all that will change with a full length straight to DVD movie. Hopefully, this opens the door to more exposure for the young girls who haven't found them on YouTube while video surfing through blind bag openings and people playing with toys (as my five year old only seems to watch).
Here's the official trailer, and the official press release below. Are you excited about this announcement?
WORLD'S MOST POWERFUL FEMALE
SUPER HEROES NAVIGATE THE
TWISTS AND TURNS OF HIGH SCHOOL AS
WARNER BROS. HOME ENTERTAINMENT
DC SUPER HERO GIRLS:
HERO OF THE YEAR
ON DVD AUGUST 23, 2016
BURBANK, CA (June 9, 2016) – Where can you find the most powerful and prominent Super
Teens in the galaxy? Super Hero High of course! Wonder Woman, Supergirl, Batgirl, Harley
Quinn, Bumblebee, Poison Ivy and Katana band together to navigate the twists and turns of high
school in DC Super Hero Girls: Hero of the Year. Produced by Warner Bros. Animation and
DC Entertainment, the film will be distributed by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment (WBHE)
on August 9 on Digital HD and August 23, 2016 on DVD (SRP $19.98).
These young Super Heroes discover unique abilities, develop powers, and combat an abundance
of overwhelming, exciting and awkward moments to master the fundamentals of being a hero –
one day at a time! The group includes:
 Wonder Woman was raised on Themyscira, a paradise island overflowing with female
leaders. This natural born leader has super strength, the power of flight and a magic lasso
that forces anyone to tell the truth.
 Batgirl is crazy smart – she was accepted to Super Hero High based on her brainpower
alone (she wasn't born with super powers). But this crime-fighting sleuth may be the
most influential of all! Her unparalleled intellect, expert martial arts skills, photographic
memory and legendary detective skills are a formula for an incredible Super Hero.
 Supergirl is the most powerful teen on earth, but also incredibly clumsy. She has super
strength, super hearing and super speed but will need to be sure she doesn't trip over her
own two feet en route to saving the world.
 Harley Quinn is the resident class clown who lives for jokes and over-the- top pranks.
Nonetheless, this quick-witted gymnast is sneaky and full of surprises.
 Bumblebee has the ability to shrink, allowing her to sneak around without being spotted.
She makes sure her team is never surprised by any villains or enemies up to no good.
 Poison Ivy, got caught up in a botched lab experiment, and now has the ability to control
and summon plants. She's gradually adapting to her amazing new powers and
blossoming into her new life.
 Katana is an artist with an edge – this fearless martial arts fashionista is up for any
crime-fighting test and is never without her sword.
Together, these seven fearless Super Heroes prove that we all have the power to make the world
a better place – even while school is in session!
 Six Animated Shorts:
o Hero of the Month: Wonder Woman
o Fall into Super Hero High
o Hero of the Month: Bumblebee
o Hero of the Month: Poison Ivy
o Clubbing
o Saving the Day

First Look at CBS Supergirl
May 13, 2015 by Arnaldo Reyes Leave a Comment
When it was first announced that CBS was taking on the pilot for Supergirl, I was shocked. Considering the CW's success with Smallville, Arrow, and The Flash, one would have thought that Supergirl would fit in right with them (especially since it would be a female-led show). However, CW passed and CBS decided to get in on the comic book phenomenon and today they give us our first look.
It's a long trailer, but we are able to get the feel of the show. One thing is for certain, it is not completely aimed at the comic book community as a whole. Most male fans probably won't tune and I can see actual Supergirl fans (male and female) ignore it, too. But if CBS can capture their 2 Broke Girls fans to tune in, this show will succeed.
It is definitely a coming-of-age show that will fall under comedy with some action thrown in. Can Melissa Benoist carry a show on her own? Although she was on Glee, it didn't seem like the new crop of cast that she was a part of captured the magic of the original cast.
So, what did you think?

Taiwan unveils fourth-generation fighter jet

Image copyright AFP Image caption Taiwan and China have threatened each other with missiles and cyberattacks in recent years
Taiwan's defence ministry has unveiled the new F-16V – the fourth-generation fighter in the air force – as Taiwan and China have faced increased military threats in recent years.
Taiwan currently uses F-16C/D models, which have become older and more expensive as the US has switched over to Lockheed Martin F-35s.
But the F-16V is meant to be more technologically advanced, reducing training costs.
It was developed for Republic of China fighter jets to lessen their dependence on the US.
"The goal of this is to reduce our dependence on the US F-16s and begin using Taiwan's capabilities on the ground level," said the deputy defence minister, Lien Chan.
The fighter jets will be exported overseas to countries that wish to buy them, said Lien.
The Taiwanese and the Chinese governments have faced increasing threats over Taiwan, which was a Chinese territory until the end of the Second World War, and is now regarded as a breakaway state.
Taiwan has recently established military readiness, after a standoff with China over the freedom of navigation in the Taiwan Strait.
China has repeatedly threatened to attack Taipei if it moves closer to the People's Republic of China.

This scenario shows the pattern on how to access end user's own OneDrive for Business and to apply custom branding to it automatically. Getting access to the personal my site will happen using Social CSOM which provides read access to user profile properties and also access to the Site object of the personal OneDrive for Business.
Actual branding is applied by uploading custom theme to the Site by using file upload mechanisms in the client side OM and then applying theme to the site. Notice that themes are not visible in the UI of the personal OneDrive for Business sites, but you can still use them.

In general it's recommended to perform my site branding using themes and to avoid custom master page usage. If you'd start using custom master pages, you would have to ensure that any new changes on the oob master pages are reflected on custom master pages as well. On top of the themes, you can also inject custom CSS to the site to modify layout slightly without the need of changing actual master page. These would be preferred options with the branding.

Actual branding is applied from app part, which can be placed anywhere in the tenant, since it operates cross the site collections as needed. End user will only see gif animation indicating operations when app part is accessing the personal OneDrive for Business site. Typical locations for this customizer would be following locations.
- Intranet front page – When users arrive to Intranet, branding in OneDrive for Business is checked and applied if needed
- Public side of the my site – for example on the news feed page
Code also stores the version of the used branding, so that changes are only applied as needed, which will avoid performance issues with constantly deploying files without clear advantages.

# SCENARIO: MODIFY PERSONAL ONEDRIVE SITE #
This scenario shows how to access user profile, create personal OneDrive for Business site and accessing created site for modification purposes

## ACCESSING USER PROFILE ##
Using social CSOM API you can easily access the user profile of particular user.

```C#
// Get user profile
ProfileLoader loader = Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.UserProfiles.ProfileLoader.GetProfileLoader(clientContext);
UserProfile profile = loader.GetUserProfile();
```

User profile then gives access to additional options, like accessing stored information in the user profile properties or to get access to the personal OneDrive for Business site, like in this case.

## STARTING ONEDRIVE FOR BUSINESS PROVISIONING IF IT DOESN'T EXIST ##
In this scenario we also schedule the OneDrive for Business creation if it has not yet been created for the particular user. This is done by using following lines of code.

```C#
Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Site personalSite = profile.PersonalSite;

clientContext.Load(personalSite);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();

// Let's check if the site already exists
if (personalSite.ServerObjectIsNull.Value)
{
    // Let's queue the personal site creation using oob timer job based approach
    // Using async mode, since end user could go away from browser, you could do this using oob web part as well
    profile.CreatePersonalSiteEnque(true);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    WriteDebugInformationIfNeeded("My site was not present, will be provisioned.");
}
```

This will schedule creation of the personal OneDrive for Business site using timer job based approach, like with the oob behavior.

## ACCESSING ONEDRIVE FOR BUSINESS SITE CROSS SITE COLLECTIONS ##
If personal OneDrive for Business site has been already created, we can access that simply using standard CSOM after getting instance to the site collection object from the user profile.

```C#
Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Site personalSite = profile.PersonalSite;

clientContext.Load(personalSite);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();

Web rootWeb = personalSite.RootWeb;
clientContext.Load(rootWeb);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
```

# SCENARIO: DEPLOY THEME AND APPLY THAT TO SITE #
This scenario shows how to deploy and apply custom theme to site.

## DEPLOYING THEME ##
Deploying of the theme can be achieve just by deploying theme files to right locations in the site using FileCreationInformation object. In this example case, we deploy three different files, which are then applied as "theme" to the site. You could actually deploy these files anywhere in the site, but for consistency sake, they are added to the same location as the oob files using following pattern.
Individual files are handled one-by-one by calling same method.

```C#
// Deploy files one by one to proper location
DeployFileToThemeFolderSite(clientContext, web, "DeploymentFiles/Theme/Contoso.spcolor");
DeployFileToThemeFolderSite(clientContext, web, "DeploymentFiles/Theme/Contoso.spfont");
DeployFileToThemeFolderSite(clientContext, web, "DeploymentFiles/Theme/contosobg.jpg");
```

Actual deployment is done in the method as follows.
```C#
private void DeployFileToThemeFolderSite(ClientContext clientContext, Web web, string sourceAddress)
{
    // Get the path to the file which we are about to deploy
    string file = HostingEnvironment.MapPath(string.Format("~/{0}", sourceAddress));

    List themesList = web.GetCatalog(123);
    // get the theme list
    clientContext.Load(themesList);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    Folder rootfolder = themesList.RootFolder;
    clientContext.Load(rootfolder);
    clientContext.Load(rootfolder.Folders);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    Folder folder15 = rootfolder;
    foreach (Folder folder in rootfolder.Folders)
    {
	    if (folder.Name == "15")
	    {
		    folder15 = folder;
		    break;
	    }
    }

    // Use CSOM to uplaod the file in
    FileCreationInformation newFile = new FileCreationInformation();
    newFile.Content = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(file);
    newFile.Url = folder15.ServerRelativeUrl + "/" + Path.GetFileName(sourceAddress);
    newFile.Overwrite = true;
    Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.File uploadFile = folder15.Files.Add(newFile);
    clientContext.Load(uploadFile);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
}
```

Code adds also new theme option to the theme item list, which would not actually be needed and it not visible in the my sites, but you can use the same pattern when deploying theme to team sites and this would result new option in theme selection.

```C#
private void AddNewThemeOptionToSite(ClientContext clientContext, Web web)
{
    // Let's get instance to the composite look gallery
    List themesOverviewList = web.GetCatalog(124);
    clientContext.Load(themesOverviewList);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    // Is the item already in the list?
    if (!ContosoThemeEntryExists(clientContext, web, themesOverviewList))
    {
	    // Let's create new theme entry. Notice that theme selection is not available from UI in personal sites, so this is just for consistency sake
	    ListItemCreationInformation itemInfo = new ListItemCreationInformation();
	    Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListItem item = themesOverviewList.AddItem(itemInfo);
	    item["Name"] = "Contoso";
	    item["Title"] = "Contoso";
	    item["ThemeUrl"] = URLCombine(web.ServerRelativeUrl, "/_catalogs/theme/15/contoso.spcolor"); ;
	    item["FontSchemeUrl"] = URLCombine(web.ServerRelativeUrl, "/_catalogs/theme/15/contoso.spfont"); ;
	    item["ImageUrl"] = URLCombine(web.ServerRelativeUrl, "/_catalogs/theme/15/contosobg.jpg");
	    // Notice that we use oob master, but just as well you vould upload and use custom one
	    item["MasterPageUrl"] = URLCombine(web.ServerRelativeUrl, "/_catalogs/masterpage/seattle.master");
	    item["DisplayOrder"] = 0;
	    item.Update();
	    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    }

}
```

##  APPLYING THEME ##
Actual applying of the theme is done with single line of code as long as the URLs to the file are properly created.

```C#
//Set the properties for applying custom theme which was just uploaded
string spColorURL = URLCombine(rootWeb.ServerRelativeUrl, "/_catalogs/theme/15/contoso.spcolor");
string spFontURL = URLCombine(rootWeb.ServerRelativeUrl, "/_catalogs/theme/15/contoso.spfont");
string backGroundImage = URLCombine(rootWeb.ServerRelativeUrl, "/_catalogs/theme/15/contosobg.jpg");

// Use the Red theme for demonstration
rootWeb.ApplyTheme(spColorURL,
    spFontURL,
    backGroundImage,
    false);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
```

Israeli psychotrauma team en route to Pittsburgh
A United Hatzalah team before leaving Israel. (United Hatzalah)
United Hatzalah
Israeli psychotrauma care specialists will provide support to the victims of the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting.
By Jack Gold, World Israel News
A team of volunteers from United Hatzalah of Israel, in cooperation with Israel's Ministry of Diaspora and the Jewish Federation of Pittsburgh, is heading from Israel to aid the community and victims of the shooting attack that took place in a Synagogue on Saturday, in which 11 were killed and six others were wounded.
The team, which left Israel Sunday morning, is comprised of members of the organization's Psychotrauma and Crisis Response Unit and will assist the families of those who were killed in the attack, as well as the injured and the rest of the community by providing psychological and emotional stabilization and treatment to those who need it.
Director of United Hatzalah's Psychotrauma and Crisis Response Unit Miriam Ballin, who is heading the team said: "We are heading to Pittsburgh in order to treat those who witnessed the attack and anyone else from the community who feels the need for our assistance."
The team will "be utilizing techniques and tools that we have developed here in Israel and have proven to be highly successful in assisting those who have suffered from similar incidents here," she added.
"Additionally, we hope that our work will give the community a sense of solidarity on behalf of the people of Israel," she noted.
Israel government envoys
Naftali Bennett, Minister of Education and Minister of Diaspora Affairs, stated that "when Jews are murdered in Pittsburgh, the people of Israel feel pain. All Israel are responsible for one another." On Saturday night, he announced that he was leaving for Pittsburgh immediately.
Dani Dayan, Consul General of Israel in New York who represents the country in Pennsylvania, arrived in Pittsburgh "to be with our brethren in this tragic hour, to pay respect to the murdered, to pray for the recovery of the wounded and to embrace a grieving Jewish community I love."

Looking for a Used Enclave in your area?
CarGurus has 21,661 nationwide Enclave listings starting at $4,499.
The Buick Enclave receives a much-needed increase in power for 2009, in the form of a new V6 engine, and continues to offer a smooth, sedan-like ride, a noticeably quiet cabin, and expansive cargo space, making it an ideal family vehicle.
The Enclave's pricetag can be steep for some, although it's more affordable than competitive vehicles, and some would like to see better fuel economy, perhaps with a hybrid or flex-fuel engine, neither of which are currently available in the Enclave.
Thanks to its many attributes, including a number of upscale amenities, the 2009 Buick Enclave offers a good value for drivers seeking a luxury crossover vehicle. Although some drivers have noted isolated build quality problems, the Enclave's smooth ride, quiet interior, numerous safety features, and expansive cargo space make it a good choice for families seeking a well-appointed crossover vehicle from a domestic automaker.
Buick's upscale Enclave crossover vehicle receives a bump in power for 2009, as well as a few new features, including standard Bluetooth and optional heated and cooled seats. Buick also adds a rear-view camera to the optional Driver Confidence package.
Now in its third year, the four-door Enclave sports aerodynamic exterior sedan-like lines and a well-equipped interior designed to appeal to younger drivers, and offers a domestic alternative to competitive crossover vehicles from foreign automakers such as Lexus, BMW, and Audi. Distinctive exterior elements include the black chrome waterfall grille, signature portholes along the sides of the hood, and three-dimensional multi-lens taillights. Inside, the Enclave offers a good mix of comfortable seating, technological advances, and interior space. It excels in a number of areas, including its smooth ride, interior quietness, and cargo capacity.
Buick offers the Enclave in entry-level CX and premium CXL trims for 2009. Both trims are available in front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive configuration. The luxury crossover vehicle can seat up to seven passengers in three rows, including front bucket seats, second-row captain's chairs, and a third-row bench seat that can accommodate three adults. With an optional second-row bench seat, the Enclave will seat eight passengers. Cargo space expands from just over 23 cubic feet with all three rows of seating in place to 115 cubic feet with the second- and third-row seats folded down.
The Enclave's new 3.6-liter, direct-injection V6 engine with variable valve timing pumps out 288 hp, an increase of 13 hp over the previous year's V6. The new engine also delivers 270 lb-ft of torque, which moves the heavy Enclave along at a better pace than the engine it replaces. With an optional Trailering Provision Package, the Enclave can tow up to 4,500 pounds.
The engine links to a six-speed automatic transmission designed to deliver smooth, efficient shifting. The transmission comes equipped with automatic grade shift logic, which senses when you're driving downhill and automatically shifts into a lower gear. This feature proves especially helpful, Buick notes, when you're towing a heavy load.
Fuel economy remains a sore spot with the Enclave, though it doesn't fare quite as badly as some of its competitors. The EPA rates mileage for the Enclave at 17/24 mpg for trims with front-wheel drive. That drops to 16/22 for trims with all-wheel drive. The Enclave runs on regular gas.
Although the Enclave shares its platform with both the Saturn Outlook and the GMC Acadia, Buick considers it to be the premium vehicle among the three. That's reflected in its four-wheel independent suspension, which Buick refers to as Premium Ride. The sedan-like suspension delivers a smooth, gliding ride that has received high marks from drivers and reviewers. The Enclave handles well in tight curves, with responsive steering and a minimum of body roll.
Seating comfort and cargo space remain two of the Enclave's best features. Drivers and second-row passengers in particular can travel long distances in relative comfort. The comfort quotient in the third-row seat drops a notch, though taller passengers will find adequate legroom in the rear seat. The Enclave's configurable cabin, with second- and third-row seats that easily fold away thanks to the Smart Slide feature, can accommodate just about any type of cargo.
A cargo storage area under the rear floor, as well as numerous cubbies, provides additional storage space. All trims include a power liftgate as standard equipment, which makes it easy to access the rear cargo area.
CX trims ride on 18-inch aluminum wheels, while CXL trims bump that up to 19-inch chrome-plated aluminum wheels. Drivers should note that the CX trims come with a tire inflation kit in place of a compact spare, which comes standard on the CXL.
The Enclave's cabin has an upscale feel, thanks in part to its art deco design, evident especially in the center dash with its quartz analog clock. Standard features include tri-zone climate control, which keeps passengers in all three rows comfortable, and a leather-wrapped, mahogany-accented multifunction steering wheel. Buick's Quiet Process system blocks and absorbs exterior noise to ensure a quiet cabin.
CX trims come standard with deluxe cloth upholstery seats, while CXL trims pamper occupants with leather seats that are heated in front. Buick offers heated and cooled seats in the CXL as a new option for 2009. The front seats in all Enclave trims are power-adjustable, with varying levels of adjustment depending on the trim.
All Enclave trims come standard with an AM/FM stereo system with an MP3 player input jack and XM satellite radio. Drivers can opt for a number of audio and entertainment system upgrades, including an advanced Bose 10-speaker system and a surround-sound CD/DVD entertainment and navigation system with a backup camera. Other options include a power tilt/sliding sunroof and rear parking assist with a rear-view LED display.
The Enclave received the highest possible score of five out of five in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's front and side crash tests. Buick has equipped the Enclave with what it calls a 360-degree safety system. Among the Enclave's many safety features are six standard airbags, including dual-stage front airbags, side-impact airbags for the driver and passengers, and head-curtain side-impact airbags that help protect passengers in the second- and third-row seats.
The Enclave comes standard with StabiliTrak, which reduces the chance of a rollover and helps drivers maintain control of the vehicle in slippery or wet driving conditions by applying brakes and controlling the engine throttle as needed. Four-wheel antilock brakes, daytime running lights, and a tire pressure monitor are among the Enclave's other standard safety features.
Owners like the Enclave's smooth ride, quiet cabin, and ability to seat up to eight passengers. Many call it an ideal family car, thanks in part to its safety features. The Enclave's exterior styling also gets high marks from owners. In addition, drivers like the standard Bluetooth and optional navigation system. On the downside, many drivers find fault with the Enclave's fuel economy, and some recommend the front-wheel-drive trims over the all-wheel-drive trims for that reason. Some report build quality problems with the Enclave. Others suggest a V8 or flex-fuel engine, neither of which are currently available with the Enclave.
CarGurus drivers echo many of those sentiments. One owner finds the Enclave expensive but worth the price, and especially likes the Enclave's quietness. Another raves about the Enclave's smooth ride.

This medication contains two different medications that are taken at different times: mifepristone and misoprostol. Mifepristone belongs to the class of medications called progesterone receptor modulators. It works by disrupting the way the hormone progesterone works in the body. Misoprostol belongs to the class of medications called prostaglandins. It works by causing muscle contractions in uterus, relaxation of the opening of the cervix, and shedding of the endometrium.
Mifepristone - misoprostol is used to terminate a developing pregnancy up to 63 days from the start of the last menstrual period.
Every month, progesterone is produced by the body to prepare the endometrium (the lining of the uterus) for a fertilized egg to implant. When no egg attaches to the wall of the uterus, the body stops producing progesterone and a menstrual bleed occurs. When a fertilized egg attaches to the wall of the uterus, progesterone continues to be produced, to support the growing embryo. When mifepristone is taken, it blocks the effect of the progesterone, causing the endometrium to break down and bleeding to begin.
It is very important that these medications be taken in a specific order and at the times described by your doctor's instructions.
The usual dose of mifepristone is a single 200 mg tablet, taken by mouth.
After 24 to 48 hours, 4 tablets of misoprostol 200 µg should be taken in a single dose. The misoprostol tablets should be placed between the cheek and gum for 30 minutes and allowed to dissolve. After 30 minutes, any remaining fragments can be swallowed with water.
It is important to take this medication exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you forget to take the misoprostol tablets and it is more than 48 hours after you took the mifepristone tablet, contact your doctor immediately.
Each white-to-off-white, round, biconvex tablet with "MF" embossed on one side contains 200 mg of mifepristone. Nonmedicinal ingredients: colloidal silica anhydrous, magnesium stearate, maize starch, microcrystalline cellulose, and povidone K30.
Mifepristone is packaged in a PVC/PVDC/Aluminum blister of 1 tablet presented in a green box of one tablet.
Each white, round, flat tablet with "ML" debossed on one side and "200" on the other side contains 200 µg of misoprostol. Nonmedicinal ingredients: hydrogenated castor oil, hypromellose, microcrystalline cellulose, and sodium starch glycolate.
Misoprostol tablets are packaged in dual-faced aluminum blisters and presented in an orange box of 4 tablets.
The two products are provided in two different boxes, which are packed together.
worsening asthma symptoms or bronchospasms (e.g., difficulty breathing, coughing, whistling sounds when you breathe, chest tightness).
Asthma: People with breathing problems may experience increased difficulty breathing when taking misoprostol. It may decrease the effectiveness of corticosteroids or cause tightening of the airways. If you have asthma, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.
Diabetes: The safety and effectiveness of this medication have not been studied for women with diabetes. This medication is not recommended for women with diabetes.
Heavy bleeding: Treatment with mifepristone - misoprostol usually results in vaginal bleeding. This is not proof that the pregnancy has been terminated. Complete termination of pregnancy is confirmed at your follow-up appointment with your doctor.
Heavy vaginal bleeding is described as bleeding heavily enough to soak through 2 full-size sanitary pads an hour for 2 hours in a row. This may be a sign that the medication has not worked completely. Contact your doctor immediately if you have heavy vaginal bleeding that lasts more than several hours.
Heart disease: The safety and effectiveness of this medication have not been established for women with heart disease. This medication is not recommended for women with heart disease. If you have risk factors for developing heart disease, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.
High blood pressure: The safety and effectiveness of this medication have not been studied for women with high blood pressure. This medication is not recommended for women with high blood pressure.
Infection: Rarely, serious and possibly fatal bacterial infections have occurred after taking mifepristone - misoprostol. If you experience abdominal pain or a general feeling of illness more than 24 hours after taking misoprostol, contact your doctor immediately.
Kidney function: The safety and effectiveness of using this medication have not been determined for women with renal failure. This medication is not recommended for women with renal failure.
Liver function: The safety and effectiveness of using this medication have not been determined for women with liver failure. This medication is not recommended for women with liver failure.
Medical monitoring: It is important to have an appointment with your doctor 7 to 14 days after taking the mifepristone in the doctor's office. This will let your doctor confirm that your pregnancy has safely been terminated.
Seizures: Seizures have been reported with other medications that are similar to misoprostol. If you have a history of seizures, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.
Treatment failure: Although this medication is generally effective, there is a possibility it will not work. Babies that are born after failed use of these medications are at an increased risk of birth defects.
Pregnancy: You can become pregnant immediately after using this medication, and this medication may cause harm to a developing baby. To decrease the chance of birth defects, avoid becoming pregnant before your next menstrual period.
To avoid becoming pregnant, start using birth control right away.
Children: The safety and effectiveness of using this medication have not been established for children less than 15 years of age.

City and Liverpool are vying for the title, while Spurs face competition from Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea for a top-four finish.
LONDON - England captain Harry Kane insists the Three Lions' squad are too united to be divided by the tension surrounding the Premier League title race and upcoming Champions League ties.
Four English sides have reached the last eight of Europe's premier club competition for the first time in a decade with Tottenham striker Kane set to face a host of international teammates who play for Manchester City three times in two legs of a Champions League quarterfinal and a vital Premier League match next month.
"I think the great thing about this team, this England camp, we have a bit of fun and a laugh and a joke, but when we are here it is 100% England," said Kane on Tuesday.
"We put that to one side, even the Liverpool and City boys. When we are here it is 100% England and when we go back I'm sure there will plenty of text messages and group messages flying about."
And unlike England camps of old where club rivalries have left to factions forming on international duty, Kane believes Gareth Southgate's squad will not be distracted ahead of Euro 2020 qualifiers against Czech Republic on Friday and away to Montenegro on Monday.
"We've got a great bond here and at the end of the day we are good friends.
"Whether we play for one club or another, when we come here we get on very well.
"Of course when we are back at our clubs we try 110% to try and beat each other but we have that respect for each other that we can talk afterwards and be friends."


Professionals are net long and their net long positions make up 4.0% of total open interest in all stock index futures. This is an increase of 0.5% from last week. Professionals continue to add to their long positions during market weakness over the last week and a half.
The COT Oscillator declined again this week from +9 to -47. With this fall below zero, we now how a confirmed high turning point at 1,559.00 on 1 June 2007. Last week I mentioned that "my best guess is that the COT Oscillator will bounce off the zero line and signal a long entry." Well, we might just have got that long entry this week. But we'll have to wait until the oscillator crosses above the zero line for a confirmation.
Although the COT data appears to be very bullish with a +4.0% reading and apparent Oscillator entry this week, the Bond market has collapsed over the last month. As a result, the Emini is very overvalued compared to Bonds and eventually something will have to give.

Email within Facebook is nice, but I should be able to get email outside of Facebook. As a matter of fact they should make it real email where I can send and receive email just like normal. I just looked at www.facemail.com is available. Buy it and give everyone an address like name@facemail.com. Email has got to be the number one activity on the Internet, this is your virtual address. Facebook will create real staying power by giving people their address to call home.
This one is such a no brainer I can't believe it. Now, I'm talking talking about an RSS reader application that posts feeds to your profile. I'm talking about a program like Google's Reader where I can import feeds for me to read. Then if I like something I can either star it (then it shows up on my profile) or share it with my friends. When I share I should be able to leave a comment and then allow others to comment back. Again, I see this as tool for me, not just to show off on my profile. Inside this reader I would embed the normal news feed within Facebook. I might even include email and notifications. Then this becomes the homepage where I consume and share content. This is content from all over the Internet, not just what I do on Facebook.
Facebook is slow. Really slow. Honestly, it's not getting faster and even though they are buying servers they really need to ramp this up. People get frustrated with this and they need to get rid of this problem.
Facebook has a ton of information. They have pictures, hobbies, wall conversations, email. Well, I want to search this! I want to be able to easily find old conversations or events. With all this information inside of Facebook, in a formate they control, this should be easy. Heck, team up with Microsoft's Live search to get this done. Furthermore, Facebook (via Live Search) should be able to pull in search results from the outside world. Can you image finding my LinkedIn profile result when you search my name? With all the demographic, behavior and interests information these pages should be perfect. Oh yeah, the ads on the right hand side of these search results should also be the most relevant of any search engine.
Look, I know Microsoft owns part of facebook. I know they think they're competing with Google to become the backbone of the web. I know these things. However, this doesn't mean they can't work with Google to make something even more awesome. It just isn't worth making enemies in a virtual world where open source and sharing is become a fundamental tenet of the web.
It's a tall order, I know. However, if Facebook can accomplish these I foresee a great future where Facebook truly becomes a power player worth multiple billions. If Facebook doesn't figure these out, I don't know how long it will be before they become out done by someone else. Being a one-trick pony at the level they're playing at just isn't good enough.

Q: DismissViewController Swift My app has the following flow if the user is logged in
Loading Screen -----> Main Screen -----> Rest of App
and the following flow if he's not :
Loading Screen -----> Login Screen -----> Main Screen -----> Rest of App
Now I am implementing the Logout feature. I have added the following code into main Screen :
func handleLogout() {
        if self.presentingViewController != nil {
            var vc = self.presentingViewController
            while ((vc!.presentingViewController) != nil) {
                vc = vc!.presentingViewController
            }
            vc?.dismissViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: {
            })
        }
}

This works fine if the 1st path is followed (the user was logged in when the app was launched) as the app returns to the Loading Screen and then loads up the Login Screen as expected. However, if the 2nd path was followed (the user was not logged in when the app was launched, and Login Screen has been used) this code leads to the Login Screen being opened directly and the whole logout process failing. Is there a way I can ensure that the Loading Screen is the one which is always loaded by this code regardless of which of the two paths have been followed.

A: Use unwind segues!
You basically add an unwind segue connecting your "main screen" and "login screen". Give it an identifier and you can initiate the segue whenever you want. In handleLogout:
func handleLogout() {
    self.performSegueWithIdentifier("your identifier", sender: self)
}

For details of how to create an unwind segue: https://www.andrewcbancroft.com/2015/12/18/working-with-unwind-segues-programmatically-in-swift/

A: This is just a suggestion here goes:
In AppDelegate file you can do something similar to this:
 func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject: AnyObject]?) -> Bool {
        //Implement this method
        let userLoggedIn = isUserLoggedIn();
        if !userLoggedIn {
            let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: NSBundle.mainBundle())
            //Instantiate the login view controller
            window?.rootViewController = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("login")
            window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
        }

        return true
    }

Now when the app starts it'll first check the user's login state and display the appropriate view.
Note: this is assuming you use storyboards and the root view controller is set to the Main Screen

A: If you are using Storyboards, I would suggest creating storyboard that is used purely for your login view/s. Then in the AppDelegate DidFinishLoading method, you can show the login storyboard if they need to login or show the main storyboard if they are already logged in. You can swap out storyboards at anytime and its easy to do. That will help simplify the flow a bit. This is what I usually do in my apps. If you need sample code just let me know.

Further biological diversity monitoring activities for the 1999 field season include two HabitatNet field courses. As of this report, one of the two field courses has been completed (Janaury 14 - 19,1999). The January field course participants were from Souhegan High School (Amherst, NH) and the July 10-17, 1999 field course participants includes teachers, college students (Souhegan High School graduates), and a videographer who also attended the Janaury, 1999 field course.
As of this report, thirteen (13) of the twenty-five (25) quadrats are completed within the hectare biodiversity plot (known as EEF1). Three additional quadrats (quadrats 13,19,25) are nearing completion.
Past HabitatNet Field Reports (Numbers 1,2,3,4) describe the habitat types, protocols used in this biodiversity monitoring project, quadrat data, and species accounts. Copies of all reports are on file at the El Eden Ecological Reserve (Quintana Roo,MX), the Smithsonian Institute/ Man & Biosphere Program (Washington, D.C.), and with the Project Director at Souhegan High School (Amherst, NH).
This was the first HabitatNet biodiversity program conducted during Janaury. Overall, El Eden Ecological Reserve was relatively wet and green with cool temperatures. Souhegan High School students ("BioSwat Team") conducted SI/MAB measurements in EEF1 during the five days. Quadrats 12 and 17 were surveyed and mapped (Appendix) and cumulative data on tree species in all thirteen (13) completed quadrats was calculated. Additionally, maximum / minimum temperature and humidity data were collected, as on previous trips, in Quadrat 1 (EEF1) at the "Jaguar Hut".
Concurrently, species observed, identified, and verified by the HabitatNet project director were noted and listed in this report. Additionally, several students conducted independent field projects with topics including: bat behavior, nature photography, and written habitat descriptions.
A total of 35 bird species were observed (checklist / field notes attached).
(4) Fall / Winter 1999: Begin intial interpretation of quadrat data compiled thus far.
Bisaccio, Dan. "Field Report: El Eden Ecological Reserve: Numbers 1,2,3"
"HabitatNet" extends a special thank you to Marco Lazcano-Barrero (Director General; El Eden Ecological Reserve) and his staff for all of their ongoing effort and support of this project. ¡Muchas gracias!
This year we are most fortunate to have Ben Day, videographer, join our HabitatNet adventures! His talent and genius allow those who are geographically removed from El Eden Ecological Reserve an opportunity to experience it visually.
It was my great pleasure to have my colleague and friend, Susie Carlisle, co-lead the Janaury "BioSwatters". Thank you Susie for all of your efforts and literary moments!
Finally, it would be impossible to conduct these rapid biological assessment projects without the intrepid researchers from Souhegan High School. Their humor, intelligence, and spirit for adventure gets the job done! Thank you!

fabric announce 39-hour party for 22nd birthday
Emerald, Goldie, Ricardo Villalobos, Sonja Moonear and Mantra are among the artists confirmed for the marathon event
fabric has announced a 39-hour party to celebrate its 22nd birthday this year.
The much-loved London club, which climbed up into the top 20 in this year's Top 100 Clubs poll, will celebrate over two decades in the heart of the city with the marathon event, set to take place from Friday 22nd until Monday 25th October.
Marking the club's first birthday in the newly renovated club interior, fabric will welcome DJs in the form of Emerald, Goldie and Rupture/EQ50's Mantra — with more acts set to be announced — on the Friday night from 11PM until 6AM on Saturday, before the likes of fabric resident Anna Wall, IMOGEN, club mainstay Ricardo Villalobos, Seth Troxler and Sonja Moonear take the reins until 5AM on Monday.
A follow-up line-up announcement including final names is set to arrive towards the end of September and promises even more fabric favourites, up-and-coming-talent, and names from across the dance music spectrum.
You can get tickets for the marathon weekender here.
Earlier this year, fabric introduced a "strict" no-photo and no-video policy. Announcing the news via social media, a post shared by the club said: "fabric is London's home for underground music, always aiming to create a feeling of self-expression on the dance-floor. We are introducing a strict no photo, and no video policy at the club. Stay in the moment and put away your phone, enjoy the night."
In May, it was revealed that London duo Overmono would be providing a mix for the fabric Presents series.

Graciela Iturbide is one of the best-known Mexican photographers of the last four decades. The images in this gallery represent series from different parts of Mexico, of which the most important is her breakthrough photoessay Juchitán of the Women (1979–86). In a documentary style notable for its humanistic grace, the series focuses on the indigenous Zapotec people in the town of Juchitán, in southeastern Mexico, where women dominate all aspects of social life, from the economy to religious rituals. The most emblematic image of the series, Our Lady of the Iguanas, shows the power and dignity of a Zapotec woman, who carries on her head live iguanas that form a bizarre crown. Four Fishes shows a woman displaying fish for sale from the private space of her home, the clay and straw of the wall echoing the scales of the fish.

En forfatning, konstitution eller grundlov lægger de politiske rammer for en nationalstat eller anden form statssamfund. En af de centrale idéer med den moderne forfatning er at sikre alle borgere grundlæggende rettigheder og dermed fravær af vilkårlige overgreb fra lovgivningsmagtens side. Endvidere fastlægger en forfatning fordelingen af opgaver mellem statens institutioner.

I Danmark er Danmarks Riges Grundlov det nationale forfatningsdokument. Af Folketingets hjemmeside fremgår det, at Grundloven er Danmarks forfatning. Ligesom Danmark har Forbundsrepublikken Tyskland en grundlov. Derimod har Storbritannien en forfatning, men ingen grundlov.

I dag findes også andre dokumenter, for eksempel Den Europæiske Menneskerettighedskonvention, som antages at have forfatningskarakter, ligesom også EU-lovgivningen de facto angiver politiske rammer for de enkelte medlemsstaters lovgivning på visse områder.

EU forsøgte i 2004-2005 at få vedtaget en forfatning for hele unionen, den såkaldte forfatningstraktat, men processen strandede, efter at et flertal af Frankrigs og Hollands vælgere stemte nej i 2005.

Forfatninger i forskellige lande

 Danmarks Riges Grundlov (kaldet Grundloven) er Danmarks forfatning;
 Grundgesetz für die Bundesrepublik Deutschland er Tysklands grundlov.
 Østrigs forfatning anvendes i Østrig.
 Finlands grundlov er den forfatning, der anvendes i Finland.
 Letlands grundlov er den forfatning, der anvendes i Letland.
 Tyrkiets retssystem er forfatningen, som anvendes i Tyrkiet, eksempel: en advokat i Istanbul.
 USA's Constitution anvendes i USA.
 Indiens forfatning anvendes i Indien.
 Folkerepublikken Kinas forfatning anvendes i Kina.

Learn how to crochet a beautiful farmhouse style jute rug with inexpensive twine from the dollar store and a crochet hook!
The floor of our porch looks pretty darn bad right now. I had painted it a few years ago as a quick fix while we decided how we were going to finish it, and that "quick fix" turned into 3 years later… We're finally going to tile the porch this summer, but until it gets warm enough I had to come up with some sort of more pleasing covering for our Spring porch.
I wanted something rustic and durable, and my first thought was an outdoor jute rug. I love jute rugs for their durability and their farmhouse look, and I thought it would be fun to try to DIY one! A lot of you love dollar store DIY ideas for their afforadability, so I decided to challenge myself to create a rug out of dollar store twine… and I love how this one turned out!
This DIY rug covers our beat-up porch floor, and it looks great with our new patio set (which I'll share with you soon)! Plus, it was a ton of fun to make and it's a great beginner's crochet project.
All you need to make this DIY jute rug is about 5 rolls of thick dollar store jute rope and a large Q16 crochet hook.
Ready to get started? Follow along with my DIY jute rug video tutorial, below!
Row 1: Ch 2. Skip 1. *DC into the back of the next chain.* Repeat from * to * until end of row.
Row 2: Ch 2. Skip 1. *DC into the front of the next chain.* Repeat from * to * until end of row.
Rows 3 – (However many rows needed to create your rug width): Repeat Row 1 and 2.
Finish by trimming rope & pulling end through final loop.
Cut 24+ pieces of jute twine, fold them in half, and pull them through the ends of the rug at even intervals to create a fringe on either end.
Need help learning the basics of crochet?
Check out this video & playlist with some crochet tips and basics from Melanie Ham.
What a great idea! I need a new outdoor rug, but I didn't want to pay so much for it. This is perfect!
Love you website!! Will try the outdoor rug! Instructions easy and it looks great!!!!
You are one creative lady!!!!
Wow! I love this!!! I really want to try this!!!!
This is a gorgeous rug and using dollar store twine is brilliant. Isn't It really hard on the hands though, I find even macrame with jute is so rough. Did you wear gloves, or wasn't it too bad?

Physics major Alex Andriatis explores new ground at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility
Alex Andriatis (Physics '18) presents the work he conducted at the ESRF.
Recipient of the Clarisse Lebel Fellowship, Andriatis pushed the boundaries of his knowledge in an interdisciplinary team
As the second annual Clarisse Lebel Fellow, Alex Andriatis, a rising junior studying physics, was selected for his academic excellence and had the opportunity to intern at The European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble, France in Summer 2015. The most intense X-ray source in the world, the ESRF is noted for its high-quality research in condensed and living matter science. It is home to international researchers from a wide variety of experimental fields, and its interdisciplinary nature is one of the many aspects which caught Andriatis's attention.
Surmounting challenges
Alex joined the Surface Science Lab, where he helped design innovative Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) techniques for nanoparticle characterization that would serve the entire ESRF community. Specifically, he worked to adapt a biological macromolecule characterization, Small-Angle X-Ray Scattering (SAXS), with AFM. In the collaborative and innovative spirit of ESRF, Alex enthusiastically joined the project without previous experience working in structural biology. Approaching the project from his physics background gave him a unique perspective for understanding the general behavior and properties of protein structures. "Choosing to work in an unfamiliar field, I exposed myself to challenging material, new perspectives on research, and a different way of thought which I can apply to further experiences," he explained.
Benefits of an international team
In addition to pushing the boundaries of his academic interests, working at ESRF introduced Alex to the innovation that an international team can bring to science and engineering. "One of the most motivational and defining aspects of the experience was the lab dynamic that welcomed me into a hardworking and dedicated team," said Alex. Due to their success this summer, Alex's team has decided to submit their findings for publication to a journal on structural biology. In addition, Alex's eyes have been forever opened to international research and career possibilities. He dreams of pursuing a global career where he can "continue to experience new people, places and philosophies." To wit: he has returned to Europe this summer, where he is currently an intern at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research.
[My] time living and working in Grenoble created one of the most enjoyable and rewarding summers. I am excited to continue exploring new applications of physics and pursuing greater involvement in research.

LA-20 PROJECT | Barriere Construction Co.
The LA-20 Project was a 2.676-mile roadway widening endeavor in the City of Thibodaux that, within the context of future plans, efficiently alleviated congestion and enhanced access to local businesses in this rapidly developing area. The Project required a large volume of work, coordinating changes in traffic patterns, and an emphasis on building and maintaining a strong partnership with the City of Thibodaux as well as local residents and businesses along the route within a short 244-day timeframe. Barriere worked closely with LADOTD, locally-based Duplantis Design Group, and the City to implement the Project plans from January to October in 2016.
The combination of Thibodaux locals opting to commute to jobs in New Orleans due to an economic decline and New Orleanians opting for more affordable housing 46 miles outside the bigger city has led to a boom in residential and commercial development in the City of Thibodaux. There has been a corresponding increase in traffic volume on rural roadways severely under equipped to handle this shift that has had an eye-opening effect on developers making plans to capitalize on this dynamic not only now, but in the years to come.
The original roadway was a two-lane highway with poorly-timed, outdated traffic signals that caused traffic flow inefficiencies and a "suicide lane" down the middle that posed head-on and merging hazards. Project plans called for four-lanes as well as the introduction of controlled-access crossing points and modernization of traffic signals. The LADOTD prioritized maintaining two-way traffic and access to the local businesses in the Project area throughout the course of construction.To successfully complete the project, Barriere loaded up the job with readily-available resources, such as 45,000 tons of asphalt from its own plant, quality equipment, experienced workers, a strong services and supplier network, and expertise in teaming up high-production transportation construction, project management and asphalt operations.
Barriere completed the Project on-time, on-budget, and without a lost-time or recordable incident. Miscellaneous drainage and concrete work was added at the conclusion of the Project, resulting in a final contract value of $10,001,725. LADOTD noted the lack of complaints about a potentially disruptive project and gave Barriere a bonus based on its delivery of a smooth final asphalt surface with no grinds – a testament to Barriere's Effective communication, innovative resolutions, and quality construction solutions allowed Barriere to complete the project on-time, on-budget, and without a lost-time or recordable incident.

Covid hospital admissions in London nearly double in a week, data shows
NHS England data showed 386 Covid-19 admissions were recorded by London hospitals on December 22.

Hospital admissions due to Covid have nearly doubled week-on-week in London, the latest figures show.
New data from NHS England shows that 386 Covid-19 admissions were recorded by hospitals in London on December 22, up 92% week-on-week and the highest number for a single day since February 1.
Across England, 1,246 admissions were recorded on December 22, up 55% week-on-week and the highest number for a single day since February 16.
But this is still well below the second wave peak of 4,134 admissions reported on January 12.
The number of Covid-19 admissions includes people admitted to hospital in the previous 24 hours who were known to have Covid-19, plus any patients diagnosed in hospital with Covid-19 in the previous 24 hours.
Medical staff on a ward for Covid patients at King's College Hospital, in south-east London (Victoria Jones/PA)
The NHS England figures also show that there were 2,260 people in hospital in London with Covid-19 as of 8am on Christmas Eve, up 47% from a week earlier.
This is the highest number since February 25, but well below the second wave peak of 7,917 on January 18.
Across England, 7,366 patients were in hospital with Covid-19 on December 24, the highest number since November 2 and up 17% week-on-week.
The second-wave peak for England was 34,336 on January 18.
Separate Government figures show that across the UK there were 1,171 Covid-19 hospital admissions on December 20, up 30% week-on-week and the highest number since February 19.
Again, this is much lower than the peak during the second wave when UK admissions reached 4,583 on January 12.
A total of 8,240 people were in hospital in the UK with Covid-19 as of December 22 – up 8% week-on-week and the highest number since November 16.
The second-wave peak was 39,254 on January 18.

CSULA's team attended the 2011 National Model United Nations conference at the United Nations Headquarters in April. The team took home two awards: Outstanding Position Papers and Distinguished Delegation. Photos courtesy Tiffany Frank and Emily Acevedo.
They may not have the jet-setting lifestyle that comes with being a nation's ambassador, but every spring, a handful of Cal State L.A. students get a taste of what it's like to serve as diplomatic representatives while attending the National Model United Nations (NMUN) conference in New York City.
The NMUN—sponsored by the National Collegiate Conference Association—challenges students to engage in a simulation with other colleges and universities as delegates of a nation.
While offering hands-on learning to students, the NMUN also provides participants the opportunity to develop an appreciation of differing viewpoints, experience the difficulty of negotiation, reap the rewards of cooperation, as well as to gain a broader understanding of international relations.
The development of the team begins in the fall, where interested students enroll in a world politics course to learn about major issues among nations, international organization, conflict resolution and theories on policy-making.
The students then take two courses during winter. The first acquaints students with the UN system and prepares them for the spring conference, teaching the rules of debate and codes of conduct. The second course requires students to conduct intensive research on the country they will represent and the problems that nation faces.
The students break into committees that are each given three topics to address in a position paper, which is due one month before the conference.
After arriving in New York, students attend general assembly at the UN Headquarters, debate in hearings, engage in caucuses and even meet actual diplomatic representatives from their delegation country.
"A lot of the students were completely humbled because they never previously left Los Angeles," Acevedo said.
Students worldwide attend the conference, however, Cal State L.A. students feel particularly empowered because other students know of their reputation, she said.
As a result of the critical-thinking and diplomatic skills of the 17-member delegation, CSULA garnered two top awards at the 2011 conference in April: "Outstanding Position Papers" and "Distinguished Delegation." This is the third year in a row that CSULA has earned national accolades.
The delegation is mainly made up of political science students, but word-of-mouth has been successful in attracting students of various academic interests in a way that benefits the team.
Acevedo, who took over as adviser in 2008, admits she has a reputation for being a tough educator with demanding expectations, but said it's necessary because the team requires a big commitment and ample teamwork in order to meet the challenges.
For the 2012 conference, the team will represent Belgium.

National Register Testing at 41LT307, on CR 153 at the Navasota River, Limestone County, Texas
Timothy B. Griffith
Ross C. FieldsFollow
TxDOT
Archeological test excavations at 41LT307 were completed by Prewitt and Associates, Inc., in 2005 in conjunction with Texas Department of Transportation road improvements on County Road 153 in northwestern Limestone County. The site is situated on the active floodplain in Holocene alluvium adjacent to the Navasota River. Excavations revealed sparse lithic artifacts and no cultural features. No organic remains were recovered, and the age of the cultural occupation is unknown. The portion of 41LT307 inside the new right of way is considered ineligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places or designation as a State Archeological Landmark. All artifacts were generated through a state-sponsored project and collected on state-owned property. All artifacts and records generated by this project are curated at the Texas Archeological Research Laboratory, The University of Texas at Austin.

Among the offences were that SSER had issued loan funds from The Export-Import Bank of China not based on the progress of the Multi-Product Pipeline (MPP) and Trans-Sabah Gas Pipeline (TSGP) projects and paid RM8.3 billion or 88 per cent of the cost of construction of RM9.4 billion for the two projects to the contractor , China Petroleum Pipeline Engineering Co Ltd (CPP) when work progress was only at 13 per cent.
Judge Manira Mohd Noor meted the sentence on SSER which was represented by Kishan Narendra Jasani (a representative appointed by the board of directors for the court case) after he pleaded guilty to six charges on behalf of the company as the accused.
In her judgement, Manira said the offence committed by SSER could give negative impact to the country's public and economic interests and the punishment was a lesson to SSER and other companies not to commit the same offences.
SSER was fined RM3 million for each charge for a total fine of RM18 million.
When asked by the judge what is his post in the company, Kishan Narendra said he was only representing the company.
According to the first to the third charge, SSER was charged for failing to comply with conditions in the written approval dated April 13 2017 by BNM under Sub-section 214(2) of the Financial Services Act 2013 to acquire foreign currency loans from non-residents, for which SSER has issued loan funds from The Export-Import Bank of China not based on the progress of the Multi-Product Pipeline (MPP) project.
SSER also failed to ensure good and effective governance in managing the implementation of the MPP project as well as the failure to obtain the written approval of BNM for the change of information relating to the timeline for the implementation of MPP project.
For the fourth to the sixth charges, SSER was accused of the same charges which is the failure to comply with BNM conditions which was issuing loan funds from The Export-Import Bank of China not based on the project progress for the Trans-Sabah Gas Pipeline (TSGP) project and the failure to ensure good and effective governance in implementing TSGP project and the failure to obtain written approval from BNM for change of information relating to the implementation timeline of TSGP.
All the offences were carried at 9th floor, Menara 1 Dutamas, Solaris Dutamas, No. 1, Jalan Dutamas 1, here between April 2017 and May 2018 according to Subsection 214(9) of the same act which provides for a maximum of 10 years in jail or fine up to RM50 million or both.
Counsel Lawrence Tan Kim Kai appealed to the court for a minimum fine as it was the company's first offence and the company is now managed by a new management team.
BNM prosecution officer Nurdeenie Abdul Rashid however pressed the commensurating punishment over the seriousness of offences which led to a depreciation of the ringgit against other currencies.
MPP involves 600 km pipeline of various petrochemical projects from Melaka and Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan to Jitra, Kedah at a cost of 4.53 billion yuan and RM2.53 billion or about RM5.35 billion.
TSGP is the construction of the 662-km of pipeline from Kimanis Gas Terminal to Sandakan and Tawau in Sabahat a cost of about RM4.04 billion.
On July 22 2016, SSER received Cabinet approval to implement the two projects worth RM9.4 billion and awarded them to the China Petroleum Pipeline Bureau (CPPB) on November 1 2016.
Both TSGP and MPP projects between SSER and CPP were terminated by the government on Sept 6 2018.

Q: What is the difference between schedule and scheduleAtFixedRate? What is the difference between these 2 methods of Timer class :
schedule(TimerTask task, long delay, long period)

and
scheduleAtFixedRate(TimerTask task, long delay, long period)

Documentation doesn't make the difference between them clear.

A: The documentation does explain the difference:
schedule:

In fixed-delay execution, each execution is scheduled relative to the actual execution time of the previous execution. If an execution is delayed for any reason (such as garbage collection or other background activity), subsequent executions will be delayed as well.

So, suppose the delay is 5 seconds, and each task takes 2 seconds, you would get
TTWWWTTWWWTTWWWTT

where T means 1 second for the task execution, and W means 1 second waiting.
But now suppose that a long GC (represented by a G) happens and delays the second task, the third one will start 5 seconds after the start of the second one, as if the long GC didn't happen:
TTWWWGGTTWWWTTWWWTT

The third task starts 5 seconds after the second one.
scheduleAtFixedRate:

In fixed-rate execution, each execution is scheduled relative to the scheduled execution time of the initial execution. If an execution is delayed for any reason (such as garbage collection or other background activity), two or more executions will occur in rapid succession to "catch up.".

So, with the same delay as above, and the same GC, you would get
TTWWWGGTTWTTWWWTT

The third task task starts 3 seconds instead of 5 after the second one, to catch up.

A: Thanks @Nizet's answer, I have written a sample code for some people who want to practice and learn.
import java.util.Timer;
import java.util.TimerTask;

public class TimerTest {

    public static void main(String args[]){
        TimerTest.DelayTask task = new DelayTask();
        Timer timer = new Timer();
        /**
         * Use schedule or scheduletAtFixedrate and check the printed result
         */
        timer.schedule(task, 0, 5000);
        //timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(task, 0, 5000);
    }

    public static boolean stop = false;

    public static void delayOneSec(String status){
        try{
            System.out.print(status);
            Thread.sleep(1000);
        }catch(Exception e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    static class DelayTask extends TimerTask{
        int count = 2;

        @Override
        public void run() {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            stop = true;
            for(int i = 0; i < count; i++){
                TimerTest.delayOneSec("T");
            }
            if(count == 2){
                count = 6;
            }else{
                count = 2;
            }
            stop = false;
            new PrintW().start();
        }
    }

    static class PrintW extends Thread{
        @Override
        public void run(){
            while(!stop){
                TimerTest.delayOneSec("W");
            }
        }

    }
}

The task itself will repeat to take 2 seconds or 6 seconds. Let's see the result of each scenario.
When using timer.schedule(task, 0, 5000);, the output is TTWWWTTTTTTTTWWWTTTTTTTTWWWTTTTTTTT. As you can see, the timer follow the rules like below, wait till period time outs if task finishes in time, launch next task immediately if current task lasts more than period.
When using timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(task, 0, 5000);, the output is TTWWWTTTTTTTTWWTTTTTTTTWWTTTTTTTTWWTTTTTTTTWWTTTTTTTTWWTTTTTTTT. Things are a little different now. The javadoc

two or more executions will occur in rapid succession to "catch up."

takes effect here. As you can see, ignoring the first TTWWW, every two tasks will print TTTTTTTTWW and it lasts 10 seconds(two periods).
Let's dig into the source code of Timer.
public void schedule(TimerTask task, Date firstTime, long period) {
    if (period <= 0)
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("Non-positive period.");
    sched(task, firstTime.getTime(), -period);
}

public void scheduleAtFixedRate(TimerTask task, long delay, long period) {
    if (delay < 0)
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("Negative delay.");
    if (period <= 0)
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("Non-positive period.");
    sched(task, System.currentTimeMillis()+delay, period);
}

As you can see, the period is transferred to negative value in schedule method. Let's see what's the difference when scheduling it.
The below code is in the mainloop of TimerThread,
currentTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
executionTime = task.nextExecutionTime;
if (taskFired = (executionTime<=currentTime)) {
    if (task.period == 0) { // Non-repeating, remove
        queue.removeMin();
        task.state = TimerTask.EXECUTED;
    } else { // Repeating task, reschedule
        queue.rescheduleMin(
        task.period<0 ? currentTime   - task.period
                      : executionTime + task.period);
           }
    }
}

It's where magic happens, for schedule method, the next task execution time is based on the currentTime which is calculated right before the this task runs. That means, every task's execution time only be related with previous task starts time.
