The Mason's squealers and informants inside Agathian held territory have notified the Order that a big convoy of prisoners of war has made a stop outside one of Parodin's cities, which stands out by its main keep or "donjon" and an old and vulnerable perimetral wall. Agatha's Knights are busy collecting taxes in this commercial hub and are organizing a public execution ceremony for several Mason high rank nobles.
The Order has cautiously crossed the mountains with the necessary siege equipment and launches a surprise attack on the unwary garrison.
Raise the gates. Masons must climb the wall by any means at their disposal (siege tower, ladders & knockable trees) and raise the 2 portcullis.
Steal their gold coins! Masons must grab Agatha's gold bags and run back to load the cart.
Looks pretty great. I like the characteristic enviroment and I think the big tower in the middle creates a unique looking castle. This overall makes for a visually interesting map (which is important).
Maybe the last objective should be reconsidered though? Would feel a bit unreasonable to make such a big deal out of stealing some gold coins. Although of course it could be excused as taking advantage, considering you've already weakened the city's defenses I guess, I dunno.
We considered different alternatives for the last stage, but we liked the idea of a Mason ransack of the village. The central keep or "donjon" (in french) was a very defensive structure of the middle-ages. It was the main warehouse of the town (storing enough supplies to hold out for months) and its door was usually on the first floor to avoid battering rams etc. In fact, I got inspiration from one built in the small hamlet of Abizanda (which is worth visiting & found in Aragon, Spain) that suffered several unsuccessful sieges. This is the reason why we thought it would be more plausible to set a "razzia" battle… a sort of hit n' run surprise attack where Masons descend from the mountains, liberate some prisoners from the cage carts and plunder the village (taking 8 gold bags that had been piled near the tables used to collect taxes, being Parodin one of the richest regions in the game's lore).
I think its a modest map in terms of objectives, but it has a very interesting assault on the wall in the 2nd stage, which is one of my favourite battle scenes from the middle-ages (my other maps… Belmez and Whitenest also feature them). Stealing the gold bags is also a new objective that creates a very interesting gameplay with players gathering in a sort of rugby melee until on of them grabs the loot and runs back (we still need to fix the lootbag attachment "float" problem). Anyway, I'm open to implementing changes, so any suggestion of an alternative/additional objective is welcome!
Looks very nice, good job!
Well, I guess I shouldn't doubt that this will be good. Belmez is the best map in CMW IMO lol.

All Sessions by Matthew Combe
Day One August 24, 2021
Buildings and Carbon
Buildings account for approximately 40% of carbon emissions. To meet long term carbon reduction necessities – increasingly as a matter of public policy and most importantly to ensure climate health – buildings will need to dramatically lower carbon emissions. Building electrification is one path for doing just that. Buildings also play a role in how quickly and effectively the transportation system decarbonizes. These strategies are as complicated as they are necessary. This session will be a lively discussion of buildings and carbon. Building owners/managers and the folks that operate them must navigate policy requirements at the state and federal level while implementing changes to their traditional approaches to energy sources and methods. Learn how smart building strategies can help buildings achieve their carbon reduction goals.

This is a long and nerdy post. I apologize.
Recent years have seen a blossoming of productivity applications, as well as the popular Getting Things Done approach, pioneered by David Allen.
At its heart, GTD is a method of keeping lists. It's not that different from what my mother-in-law did: she kept careful lists for her family camping trips, so she wouldn't forget something when they were 20 miles from a grocery store (think toilet paper).
With computers, GTD has moved to our various devices, and there's an astonishing number of very powerful applications out there to manage your lists. Although you can get by with pencil and paper, computers keep the lists cleaner, protected (they are backed up and in multiple places), and can automatically sort and hide tasks as needed. The dreadful bit of GTD before personal computers would be the endless re-copying of the lists. The dreadful bit of computerized tasks is the easy ability to fiddle and click, instead of actually getting things done (yes, this is highly ironic).
The debate on Macs is between Things and OmniFocus. Like a decent number of people, I was a Things user until just recently, when I switched to OmniFocus. Both are terrific programs, with pros and cons to each. Both have iOS applications that synchronize with your data. Both can kick to-dos down the road to a future date, which is one of the killer features of a GTD application; that is, you can tell the program, I don't want to see or think about this until 2 months from now, and instantly it is gone until the 2 months have elapsed. Both have quick entry panels for the Mac, so you can enter a task on the fly without switching into the application, and both can put projects on hold. On the cost side, neither application is particularly cheap, with Things being slightly cheaper (Remember the Milk is online, cute, and free, but lacks the power of these other apps).
Things is easier to start with, prettier, and very user-friendly. One grasps its essentials fairly easily. It has a powerful system of tags, and a good system of keyboard shortcuts. The iOS apps work well, especially the iPhone app. The Today (that is, your highest priority) list is terrific, and you can quickly make things appear on the Today list, or take them off. Its downsides, however, become obvious with time: there is lots of flipping and scrolling through lists, and there is the need to synchronize your iOS devices on your local network via wifi (as well as wait for the sync to complete). Worse, after launching Things on your iPhone, you will have to wait for the sync to complete before doing anything, then enter whatever it is you wanted to enter, and then relaunch it to sync with your computer. This gets real old (they are working on a sync with their server, but it is taking forever to launch). The application is not updated very often, as you can see from their blog posts; the iPad version had a bug that lingered for months. This was one of the final reasons for my switching, as I tired of waiting for them to fix things or catch up to OmniFocus. The iPad app has page turn animations that get tiresome, and there is a lot of tabbing in and out of things on it and the iPhone; for example, you have to click on the task and then click edit to rename it, and then click again to save, instead of simply click and renaming it directly. If you include with a task an attachment or link to an email, you can't later delete or move that file or email, or the link is broken and unavailable to Things.
OmniFocus is a workhouse, and powerful beyond belief. It has even better keyboard controls than Things, lots of flexibility in terms of its appearance and handling of your tasks, and a really powerful quick entry panel. It's easier and faster to schedule things into the future than Things is, and you can even schedule things according to a certain time (such as 2 pm). Projects can be dropped, which means the data is still in your system but it is gone from your lists. Projects can be made into templates, so they can be duplicated. You can have folders and containers, and tasks can become subtasks. The sync is terrific, as there is a free sync with their servers, so your data is synced, anytime anywhere (although the sync can be frustratingly slow, and sometimes it crashes). The iOS apps are great, with home buttons to get out of something you've tabbed deeply into, and the totally, completely amazing Forecast view. There is also a quick entry button so that you can enter a task on an iOS device while it is still syncing with the servers (although this does crash on me, from time to time), and even a map/GPS feature so that tasks can be keyed to GPS locations. The Omni Group is quick to update, fix, and innovate, which has led many people to abandon Things.
On the downside, OmniFocus is very granular and not easy to grasp at first, nor is it as visually appealing as Things (I have a strong feeling that 2.0 will change this, as the OmniFocus iPad app is gorgeous, and, like Apple, The Omnipresent Group will follow their iPad design leads). The Omni Group insists on using inspectors instead of a some sort of panel, and my inspector is always getting lost or in the way. Search the internet and you find people frustrated with OmniFocus' sharp learning curve. There's some early feelings of fear when you don't see the actions that you know are there (until you finally realize that you're in the wrong view, and those tasks are still in there). OmniFocus also forces you to put your actions into projects, which doesn't always make sense; if you're like me, you have lots of tasks that don't really belong in a project. Further, The Omni Group keeps their applications rather pricey, even in the days of the App Store and digital downloads that are driving prices down. Fortunately, there is a generous academic discount.
I must say that it was fairly scary to switch. I was surprised how nerve-wracking it was; that data is rather precious, and the fear of losing or missing something is surprisingly powerful. Going from a trusted system to a brand new one is stressful. After a week or so, however, I found myself relaxing and trusting OmniFocus.
Whatever you use, the goal is to be productive and stress-free, and to create as little friction between you and the plates you are currently spinning. Good luck.


The Croatian National Bank started conducting the Bank lending survey in October 2012. The survey is conducted four times a year, at the end of each quarter. The survey aims to provide an insight into the developments in bank lending standards and conditions (loan supply) and the changes in loan demand in Croatia. The questionnaire is completed by bank managers responsible for credit operations of banks with enterprises and households. Survey results help in understanding credit market developments and thus support the analytical and research tasks of the central bank. Also, survey results are used to inform the business community and the general public. The results are shown by means of the net percentage, with values ranging from –100 to +100. The responses are weighted by the shares of individual banks in total loans to enterprises and households respectively. The Bank lending survey is methodologically aligned with the Euro area bank lending survey conducted by the European Central Bank.


As an avid birder, nature enthusiast, and active member of several conservation organizations, Marj Rines had no trouble deciding how she wanted to spend her free time when she retired from a career in advertising: she wanted to volunteer with Mass Audubon and share her knowledge and interest in wildlife.
Cathy Campbell has been volunteering for the Boston Nature Center since the 1990's, serving on the advisory committee that established BNC and ultimately becoming a board member at Mass Audubon. Her family has been involved with events and programs at BNC for many years.
Bill Hobbie has enthusiastically taken on volunteer duties at Ipswich River, as well as at unstaffed sanctuaries including Nahant Thicket, Marblehead Neck, Cedar Pond in Wenham, and Eastern Point in Gloucester.
Ann Gurka has been a volunteer extraordinaire for Joppa Flats in Newburyport for 14 years. The wildlife sanctuary–just a recently purchased property when she began donating her time—is now a hub of activity, featuring a green nature center at the gateway to Plum Island.
When it comes to horseshoe crabs, Hillary Cressey knows what she is talking about. Wading along banks of slender cordgrass, she keeps a sharp lookout for their telltale shapes crawling along the sand. When she spots one, she jots down in a waterproof notebook the location of the animal and whether it is accompanied by a mate.
Every year in late fall and early winter, 50 intrepid Wellfleet Bay volunteers walk miles upon miles along the beaches of Cape Cod, on foggy frigid days and dark icy nights, bundled up to endure the chill. Their goal: to save the lives of sea turtles.
"Mass Audubon is an environmentally minded organization," she says, "and I like to be outdoors, so I called Oak Knoll." Bragg was immediately enlisted as a volunteer there and at sister sanctuary Attleboro Springs—clearing trails, putting up flyers, advertising activities, laying out bricks for garden paths, and helping out in any other way needed.

A light-hearted look at how not to mentor!
Start from the point of view that you – from your vast experience and broader perspective – know better than the mentee what's in his or her interest.
Be determined to share your wisdom with them – whether they want it or not; remind them frequently how much they still have to learn.
Decide what you and the mentee will talk about and when; change dates and themes frequently to prevent complacency sneaking in.
Do most of the talking; check frequently that they are paying attention.
Make sure they understand how trivial their concerns are compared to the weighty issues you have to deal with.
Remind the mentee how fortunate s/he is to have your undivided attention.
Neither show nor admit any personal weaknesses; expect to be their role model in all aspects of career development and personal values.
Never ask them what they should expect of you – how would they know anyway?
Demonstrate how important and well connected you are by sharing confidential information they don't need (or want) to know.
Discourage any signs of levity or humour – this is a serious business and should be treated as such.
Take them to task when they don't follow your advice.
Never, never admit that this could be a learning experience for you, too.

CSG talks vaccine mandate, therapy reimbursements in final meeting of the semester
by Martina Zacker April 21, 2021 April 21, 2021

The University of Michigan's Central Student Government met virtually on Tuesday evening for the last meeting of the semester. The assembly discussed the creation of a CSG COVID-19 People of Color Impact Task Force, a resolution which would urge the University to ban single-use plastics and the creation of a Therapy Healing Program to help students cope with recent events in the nation.
A resolution to create a COVID-19 People of Color Impact Task Force, sponsored by assembly members across four schools, was reclassified so that it could be discussed during the meeting without having to be referred back to the rules committee.
The Assembly voted to accept this reclassification and began discussion on the resolution, which would create a task force to advocate on behalf of people of color to make sure their concerns are heard by the University as well as address the impacts of COVID-19 and a potential vaccine mandate on marginalized communities. Though CSG does not have the power to implement a vaccine mandate, CSG members said the University's administration asked CSG to provide a recommendation on whether the vaccine should be mandated.
Senate Assembly approved a resolution at yesterday's meeting to mandate vaccinations for the 2021-2022 academic year. In a recent interview with The Michigan Daily, University President Mark Schlissel said University administration is still discussing whether or not to implement a vaccine mandate.
Engineering sophomore Zaynab Elkolaly, who originally appealed for reclassification, spoke to the assembly about the goals of the resolution. Based on a survey done by CSG in January, nearly 20% of students who self-identified as Black responded at the time that they did not plan on getting the COVID-19 vaccine. This is compared to under 3% of students identifying as white and under 1% of students identifying as Asian responding in the same way.
"This resolution is to create a task force that will address the impact of a COVID-19 vaccine mandate in response to the administration asking for CSG's official opinion," Elkolaly said. "It will also be to basically create a space to discuss the impact that COVID-19 has had on students of color in particular and people of color in general."
LSA freshman Alex Nguyen asked Elkolaly and the other sponsors why the resolution seemed to advocate against a vaccine mandate, despite the fact that Black, Indigenous, and people of color were hit the hardest by the pandemic, which the vaccine would mitigate.
"Why shouldn't we prioritize BIPOC communities by trying to find an effective solution to COVID-19 by helping them out?" Nguyen said. "(First) by reducing numbers via vaccine mandates on campus, as people will be coming in from all over the world, (and second) while doing vaccine education at the same time. Because from my understanding, (the two are) not necessarily mutually exclusive."
Elkolaly responded by clarifying the resolution does not oppose a vaccine mandate and by saying the task force does in fact seek to prioritize BIPOC by communicating with the community.
"People of color, and especially Black members of our community, have been subjected to racism in the form of illegal medical testing, and are therefore disproportionately unwilling to receive the vaccine," Elkolaly said. "And so this task force was originally created in response to that to basically communicate with those communities and mitigate the concerns so that we can — as you specify is important — proceed with a mandate once everyone is perfectly comfortable."
Nursing junior Moriah Lewis, one of the sponsors of the resolution, agreed that education on the efficacy of vaccines is important but said more should be done to make sure all student concerns are considered before considering a vaccine mandate.
"I understand that everyone thinks that (the vaccine is) important, but we still need to educate, and I'm not just pushing the mandate first before we gather the concerns that (are) going to be detrimental as a whole," Lewis said.
In response to the concerns about a vaccine mandate, Elkolaly clarified that the task force created by the resolution would report to CSG, who would then be able to make a recommendation to the administration at a later time about whether or not to mandate the COVID-19 vaccine for all U-M students.
After voting to not refer the resolution back to committee, the Assembly was able to vote and officially debate on the resolution, which ultimately passed with unanimous consent.
There was also a motion made by LSA freshman Karthik Pasupula to allow the Assembly to immediately vote on a resolution calling on Schlissel and the Board of Regents to sign the Break Free from Plastic Pledge, instead of waiting until a future meeting. The resolution itself would ask that the University ban single-use plastics and create a zero-waste task force.
LSA freshman Ashvin Pai, one of the sponsors of the resolution, explained why he along with the other sponsors wanted the process of passing the resolution to be sped up while still involving the voices of communities that might be affected by the ban, including BIPOC and people with disabilities.
"We feel that it will be easier to conduct this outreach (to student organizations) after CSG has made a public call for dedicated commission to address the issue of single-use plastics," Pai said. "We're also aware that many of the organizations that we want to bring on board for this project do not currently have the bandwidth to take on another project, as they're in a transitional phase or caught up with existing projects or finals."
LSA sophomore Vincent Pinti voted against the motion and entered debate against Pasupula and Pai in hopes of getting the resolution to continue being considered by the communications committee before voting. Pinti's objection stemmed from concerns that the resolution would move too fast and end up banning single-use plastic straws, which many people with disabilities rely on to be able to drink.
"I am very much in favor of the notion of reducing plastics at the University," Pinti said. "But we need to make sure we're moving in a manner that is slow enough so that no community is inadvertently targeted in a negative way from this."
Pasupula emphasized that this should not be a problem due to the specific demands of the resolution.
"Our resolution has codified language that says that we won't replace single-use plastics unless they have a ready alternative," Pasupula said. "That includes straws."
After a considerable amount of debate between members of the assembly, CSG members held a roll call vote in which there was an 11-21-2 against the motion, keeping it at the communications committee.
An appropriation was also proposed to use $10,000 from the Legislative Discretionary Fund to provide reimbursements to students utilizing therapy after experiencing mental distress due to recent traumatic events in the nation. The Healing Therapy Program also provides suggestions and specific resources to students, however, a student would not have to use these specific resources in order to receive compensation.
An amendment was made to make sure that the money for the program would be given to the Dean of Students Office, so students' financial aid statuses would not be affected. Afterward, the appropriation was debated.
Rackham student Austin Glass spoke up against the amendment, cautioning against doing the program through the Dean of Students Office in case there was not a lot of interest and all the money did not get used.
"I just think that without any knowledge about the anticipation of the rate at which this money would be leaving this account, we should refrain from just handing over $10,000 to the Dean of Students for this purpose," Glass said.
Ultimately, the appropriation passed along with its proposed amendment.
In addition, the assembly voted unanimously to confirm Rackham student Hayden Jackson as the next director of the Student Organization Committee, and Pasupula was elected to be vice chair of the Finance Committee.

Four of our grandchildren are here for a few days along with our daughter. Tucker turns 9 years old this weekend so we wanted to have his gift ready for him. Of course, that meant a card too. Tucker loves to fish and brought his pole along with him so Poppie can take him (and his brothers) fishing at the pond behind our house today. Poppie took the day off to do just that. His gift and his birthday card were fishing themed. I made his card using my Silhouette. I found this adorable download and just had to make it for Tucker.
The Silhouette even punched the holes in the vest to stitch around. I picked out the colors and put all the pieces together after they were cut and added them all to the vest with Tombow Multi-Purpose Adhesive. The only thing I added was the number nine, die cut with the Little Numbers Dies.
Since it's an over-sized card it even had a matching envelope included.
This is THE CUTEST thing ever, although don't tell your grandson that I think it is "cute"! The little extras are just the best! And have fun shopping with the girls, sounds like a perfect thing to do while the guys are fishing!
Wow! I agree with LeAnne about this being the cutest card ever. I love all the little details hanging from every pocket, the stitching and of course, the "9". What great grandparents they have!! The boys may catch enough fish for dinner!
Oh, Dawn, you really outdid yourself on this one! The vest with the bobbers, lures and hooks is just the cutest ever! I'm sure that Tucker will be thrilled with this card. Great job and TFS.
Wow this is beyond adorable! Totally fun card and amazingly detailed! Love it!
Tucker had to love that card as it's perfect for a fisherman. I know "the guys" had a ball fishing. I'm also sure you and Princess Lucy had fun doing some "girlie shopping". Dawn you outdid yourself with this one.

In another era, this was the private hacienda of a thriving coffee plantation. Today, it's an inviting and gracious retreat that has opened its doors to welcome you to the tranquility and seclusion of this idyllic setting. Located at 4,000 feet above sea level in a mystical valley of cloud forest and lush mountainsides, with magnificent views of Panama's only volcano in the distance, the Inn offers quiet and cozy nooks for times of personal reflection as well as opportunities for boisterous thrills and adventure in the surrounding countryside. If you're slow to get started (and who would blame you, you're on vacation), begin your day with a delicious breakfast and some quiet time on the terrace. Later, jump-start the day's activities with a cup of the Inn's own gourmet Los Establos coffee and an invigorating hike to lost waterfalls or a whitewater rafting adventure.
By all means, explore the nearby town of Boquete, called the "Little Switzerland of Central America" for its charming architecture and flower-filled hillsides. Seek out some of its unique ethnic restaurants and tour nearby Paradise Gardens, home to a variety of monkeys and the largest butterfly sanctuary in Panama. But guaranteed, you'll be more than happy to return to Los Establos each evening for a relaxing nightcap and a comfortable night's sleep, with only the sounds of the rainforest for company.


Jharkhand is a newly formed state from Bihar and has marked its emergence as the most sought after state for residential real estate and commercial real estate. The state has been on a flourishing ground for numerous large scale industries due to the abundance of rich mineral resources. Cities like Jamshedpur, Dhanbad, Bokaro and Ranchi have manifested their presence among the most industrialized cities of the country. Lush green forests, serene environment and unusual wildlife have attracted property investors from every nook of the country to invest their money in Jharkhand real estate.
The frequent development of residential property and commercial property, which includes flats, apartments, office spaces, shopping complexes, shops etc., is catering the needs of local as well as migratory population. Affordable services of property dealers and home loan providers have made the tedious task of finding property in Jharkhand easier. With the collaboration of private players, Jharkhand state housing board is planning to develop properties in Jharkhand. These construction projects will certainly provide an impetus to the real estate of Jharkhand.

Obi Toppin gave his team a spark in a Game 2 win with an alley-oop dunk in the 4th quarter.
After the play, the crowd of 16,000 people at Madison Square Garden chanted his name.

Roni Toppin got a one-of-a-kind experience at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday: hearing 16,000 fans chanting her son's name.
New York Knicks rookie Obi Toppin provided a spark in his team's come-from-behind, Game 2 win over the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday.
His key contribution came in the fourth quarter when he successfully defended a possession, first closing out hard on a three-point shooter to deny the shot, then stripping the ball from the Hawks' Kevin Huerter. On the ensuing fastbreak, Toppin slammed home an alley-oop to give the Knicks an 81-75 lead with just under 11 minutes to play.
The MSG crowd erupted and moments later began chanting his name.
Cameras later caught Toppin's mom in the stands, wiping away tears.
Toppin finished with just 8 points on 2-of-4 shooting with 3 rebounds in 12 minutes, but the Knicks outscored the Hawks by six in his time on the court. His energy provided a lift for the team.
That the chants took place at MSG likely made the moment all the more surreal for Toppin and his mother. The Toppins grew up in Brooklyn, New York.
Obi was a late bloomer and only played one year of varsity basketball before doing a year of prep school, then going to Dayton on a scholarship. He redshirted his freshman year, then played two seasons at Dayton, earning National Player of the Year in his second season before entering the NBA draft.
Toppin grew up a Knicks fan and was overwhelmed on draft night, shedding tears in his interview after the Knicks selected him with the eighth overall pick.
Roni shared a photo of Toppin as a kid in a Knicks jersey.
It was a bumpy rookie season for Toppin, who often struggled with his shot, the speed of the game, and avoiding fouls on defense. Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau kept Toppin on a short leash throughout the season, pulling him from the game quickly after mistakes.
Toppin, however, has seemingly caught up to speed in time for the playoffs. While he's only played limited minutes in two games, Toppin has raised his scoring average, shot the ball more efficiently, given good effort on defense, and given energy off the bench.
The Knicks' Game 2 win on Wednesday ensured they will return to MSG for a Game 5 where Toppin will likely receive more huge ovations.

Focusing on the case of South Africa, this study examines how decentralisation policies and inter-party politics have affected urban service- delivery responsibilities and resources. Service delivery does not appear to be worse off in Cape Town than in Johannesburg, even though the former is controlled by the opposition Democratic Alliance. While there have been political attempts to undermine the authority of its officials, the fiscal elements are protected by a relatively strong and well-managed department of finance. Consequently, both donors and the national government steer money towards Cape Town because they know it can deliver on its obligations.

Q: Javascript external file does not find the right element I am programming a website using PHP, html and JavaScript. I want to add PHP (and html) content in a div, when clicking an Icon. Due to Content Security Policy I have to use an external file for the JavaScript Code.
I already tried the function in another PHP Project with a button, where it worked.
my relevant PHP Code is:

with:

in the header. My Javascript code is:
function loadNewTask() {
    var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
    xhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
        if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
            document.getElementById("Target").innerHTML += this.responseText;
        }
    };
    xhttp.open("GET", "elements.php", true);
    xhttp.send();
}

document.getElementById("btnadd").addEventListener("click", loadNewTask);

I wanted the Html Elements from the file Elements.php to appear inside the div with the id "Target", when I click the Icon with the id "btnadd".
I changed the javascript to:
    function loadNewTask() {
      var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
      xhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
        if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
          document.getElementById("Target").innerHTML += this.responseText;
        }
      };
      xhttp.open("GET", "/fftboard/app/Template/task_creation/show_input-task.php", true);
      xhttp.send();
    }

    function activateListeners(){
      var elementLoaded = checkElementLoaded();
      if(document.readyState == "complete" && typeof(elementLoaded) != 'undefined' && elementLoaded != null) {
      elementLoaded.addEventListener("click", loadNewTask);
    }
    else{
      window.setTimeout(activateListeners, 200);
    }
    }

    function checkElementLoaded (){
      var elementLoaded = document.getElementById("btnadd");
      var loaded = false;
      if(typeof(elementLoaded) != 'undefined' && elementLoaded != null)
      {
        return elementLoaded;
       }

       return null;
       }

    activateListeners();

because the Icon "btnadd" is also loaded to the page. Now I do not recive any errors but it still does not work...

A: Probably you have   in the beginning of your file.
Can you put it in the end close to the  tag?
The problem is that you are searching an element that is not yet loaded

How Facebook tracks Android users, even those without Facebook accounts
Facebook provides a suite of turnkey app-building tools for Android that are widely used among the most popular Google Play apps, with billions of combined installs; naturally, these tools create incredibly data-hungry defaults in the apps that incorporate them, so that even before you do anything with an app, it has already snaffled up a titanic amount of data, tied it into your Google Ad ID (which is recycled by Facebook to join up data from different sources) and sent it to Facebook.
Needless to say, the GDPR made these practices radioactively illegal, but despite two years' warning that the GDPR was coming into effect last spring, Facebook dragged another six months out before updating its tools, and these updates still have propagated to all the apps in Google Play.
The data harvested from phones -- including, for example, which Bible verses you read using a King James Bible app, and which searches you made on Kayak -- is added to your "shadow profile", and no one (outside of Facebook) knows for sure how that's used.
You can practice a little self-defense, but it's cumbersome: root your phone and you can block all network traffic to *.facebook.com; you can also reset your Ad ID and disaggregate the data coming off your phone. I've had a poke around but can't find a tool that resets the Ad ID every 10 seconds -- please leave a comment if you know of one.
Frederike Kaltheuner and Christopher Weatherhead from Privacy International gave an outstanding talk on the subject at the Chaos Communications Congress in Leipzig last month; an accompanying paper gives more detail, including methods.
Kaltheuner and Weatherhead were able to gain insight into the apps' behavior by rooting an Android phone and installing a man-in-the-middle proxy that used forged certificates to intercept and decrypt data on its way to Facebook. Ominously, none of the apps they tested used certificate pinning (let alone certificate transparency) to detect/prevent this kind of man-in-the-middle activity.
It's not clear whether the same conduct is present in apps in Apple's App Store; Apple uses unique Ad IDs that are similar to Google/Android's and could be exploited in the same way. However, Apple's DRM is designed to make this kind of research much harder. I hope the Privacy International researchers take a crack at it: perhaps they could use simulated, cloud-based Ios devices used for developer testing.

Taxonomy and distribution of Aesculus species in the British Isles
Alshamrani, R. (2018) Taxonomy and distribution of Aesculus species in the British Isles. PhD thesis, University of Reading
Aesculus L. is a small genus of horticulturally important trees and shrubs comprising 13 species. Frequent hybridization among species, particularly in cultivation, has contributed to taxonomic confusion and difficulties in identification of plants. At the same time, disease is threatening the future of some species in horticulture. One species, A. hippocastanum, is emerging as a model for documenting phenological responses to climate change, but it is unclear whether there is significant intraspecific variation in this species. These factors have prompted the morphological and molecular reconsideration ofAesculus taxonomy, with emphasis on plants in horticulture in the UK, and the investigation of the inter-and intra-specific variation in phenology for these species. A detailed morphological study based on 101 morphological characters scored 48 plants. Multivariate analyses and scrutiny of the data against the existing descriptions of species, varieties and cultivars, including hybrids, were used to identify plants, but highlighted the deficiencies of current identification tools .. The plants from the morphological study were included In a molecular survey. New sequence data for one nuclear (ITS) and two chloroplast regions (trnHK, matK) were generated. Bayesian phylogenetic analyses of these sequence data, along with published data, supported previously existing infra-generic lineages. However, no evidence for intraspecific lineages of A. hippocastanum was found in the morphological or molecular analyses. A phenological survey of plants on the University of Reading Whiteknights campus was made for 51 plants, 34 of A. hippocastanum and 17 representing other species. For two years, each plants' phenological stage (budburst, leaf development, shoot development, flowering, fruiting and beginning of dormancy) was recorded. Consistently early trees and early species were identified. For A. hippocastanum the number of days between the first tree's bud burst and the last tree's budburst was 29 days in 2013 and 38 days in 2014; the time between the earliest bud burst in 2013 and in 2014 was 13 days. Thus, intraspecific variation in budburst time within years is much greater than inter-annual differences.

Q: How to find the admin of a Facebook page? Is there anyway of finding the admin of a Facebook page by using JavaScript, Browser Addon or a piece of software?

A: No. There is no API. There is no hidden admin in the source. You just can't get the admin of a  facebook page if the person choose to stay anonymous.
This "question" probably also does not belong to SO.

A: its not possible to know fb admin by js...as their is no API for that...

It is impossible to hear the news these days without being all too aware of the shadowy, dark places of our world: the hatred expressed in Charlottesville; the violence in Las Vegas and in so many other scenes of gun massacres; the tragic loss and devastation of Puerto Rico, Houston, and Mexico City; the mean-spirited debates over health care, immigration, and budgetary priorities.
Too often our world is not a place of light, hope, and joy.
For many of us, there are also the dark shadowy places in our personal lives: the ominous shadows in a x-ray evidencing a new tumor; the shadow of addiction; the dark feelings of loss or depression that hit each morning upon awakening.
As someone who loves photography, I am aware that many photos are made by the juxtaposition of light and shadow. Without the shadow, the amazing beauty of the light would not even be noticed.
Terrifying as the dark shadowy times of our lives may be, is it possible that those times help us see and experience God's amazing light in a deeper, more sustaining way?
"God works best in the darkness. The ugly caterpillar in its shriveled cocoon sees nothing but days and weeks of darkness. Yet, God works a miracle in the midst of that darkness. John of the Cross calls this the "dark night of the soul." The butterfly in the chrysalis, baby in the mother's womb, seed in the ground, and authentic self in the soul must all pass a season in darkness.
In scriptures, Jonah emerged from the dark belly of the whale, Joseph escaped the dark pit where he'd been left to die, Paul was rescued from the dark prison cell, and Jesus rose from the grave. All passed through darkness into transformation--a new understanding and appreciation of themselves, their mission in life, and the mystery of God."
Compassionate and mysterious God, you know all too well the dark places of our world and of our individual lives. Remind us that even as you are at work in the darkness, you give us signs of hope through the care of friends and the kindness of strangers. Help us to be your loving hands at work in this hurting world, and enable us to trust that, even when we are experiencing a dark night of the soul, you are at work bringing transformation and light. Amen.

'RHOC' Kelly Dodd Confronted by Andy Cohen Over Offensive "Drunk Wives Matter" Hat, COVID-19 Comments and Mom's ICU Stay as She Reacts to Him Telling Her "Think Before You Post!"

Kelly Dodd appeared on Watch What Happens Live on Wednesday night after the latest episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County, and during the appearance, host Andy Cohen confronted her about the many reckless social media posts she has made over the past several months.
In addition to asking her about her claim that COVID-19 may be "God's way of thinning the herd," her "Drunk Wives Matter" hat, and her mother's recent visit to the ICU, Andy called out Kelly for failing to think before she posts.
"Does Kelly have any remorse for her 'God thinning the herd' comment about all the people who have been affected and lost people due to COVID?" Andy asked as he read a question from a fan.
"Of course I regret saying that," Kelly replied on the December 2 episode. "At the time, it was a question. Like, 'Why are all these people dying?' It was a stupid thing for me to say. It was insensitive and I apologize if I hurt or offended anybody because that wasn't my intention. It was the stupidest thing I've ever said."
Another stupid thing Kelly said was that no one was dying of the virus in Orange County, which was completely false.
"I was misinformed. This was back in January when this happened," Kelly admitted of comments she made in May.
"I hate it [wearing a mask]. I'm claustrophobic. I can't stand wearing a mask," she continued. "[But] now I understand the science behind it and I'm ready, willing, and able to wear a mask and I know it's important because I don't want to get sick and I don't want to get others sick. I'm a human being. I make mistakes."
In October, amid backlash over her COVID-19 comments, the RHOC star was faced with another scandal after she was seen wearing a "Drunk Wives Matter" hat during her bridal shower.
"The 'Drunk Wives Matter' hat was given to me. My girlfriend gave it to me. She's had it for a couple of years. That hat was two years old. She thought it was a play on words," Kelly explained. "I didn't buy the hat. I didn't go out and sport the hat. I believe in equality [and] I believe in Black Lives Matter."
At the end of last month, Kelly made headlines after her mother was hospitalized with COVID-19 and later placed in the ICU. A short time later, the family received backlash after she and Kelly's brother, Eric Meza, turned up at a restaurant just days after her diagnosis was shared.
While fans online certainly tied Bobbi Meza's apparent negligence to Kelly's past comments and behavior, Kelly told Andy on WWHL that she and her mom aren't on the best of terms.
"My mom and I are estranged right now. I found out that she had COVID [and was in the] ICU through Instagram," she revealed. "My brother put that out there. He couldn't even call me or my [older] brother to tell us my mom was in the ICU with COVID. I ended up talking to her [on] Thanksgiving and she's doing fine. She's at home."
After confronting Kelly about the many scandals she has faced, Andy gave Kelly some stern advice.
"You've had such a bad run on social media. I get tweets and DMs saying, 'You've got to control her. You have got to stop her.' At some point, it seems like you need to think before you post," he stated.
"I've learned from my mistakes. I'm a human being. Everybody has said and done things in their lives that they regret and I regret these things," Kelly replied.
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 15 airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo.

SHACKLES off with a promotion play-off place out of reach, the teams produced a thriller.
Northwich completed an impressive double against Douglas, and as a reward traded places with their guests in the table.
Curiously, the opening quarter of an hour was no guide for what was to follow.
A stalemate was ended by Blacks after Sam Naylor picked up the ball from the back of a scrum and fed Joel Barber who broke the Isle of Man outfit's defensive line.
He returned possession to Naylor who invited Robin Houghton to claim a neat try.
Nick Baldwin converted and extended the home team's lead when he landed a penalty kick.
Douglas were undeterred and put their first points on the board after a lineout sparked a series of carries before they moved wide to touch down in the corner.
Five minutes later they formed an unstoppable maul from another lineout to push over the whitewash.
And they remained alert, collecting the ball from the restart before countering to claim a third converted score before half-time.
Northwich attempted to respond and Naylor's try early in the second period, converted by Baldwin, closed the gap.
Martin Poste's men then moved back in front after a quickly-taken penalty started a sequence that ended with Scott Davidson crossing the line.
Douglas landed a three-pointer to draw level before Baldwin replied in kind with 10 minutes left.
Barber was next to dot down, passing to Houghton who made inroads into the Manx men's territory before finding the supporting full-back who finished the move.
Northwich could not relax though and conceded again when their guests used a set-piece to set up another try.
The outcome wasn't settled until Davidson forced his way over with time running out, Baldwin's fifth conversion of the afternoon putting Blacks out of reach.


The powerful story of the Red Army's battle of liberation against the Nazi invader - from Stalingrad all the way to Berlin. In February 1943, German forces surrendered to the Red Army at Stalingrad, and the tide of war turned. By May 1945 Soviet soldiers had stormed Berlin and brought down Hitler's regime. Total War follows the fortunes of these fighters as they liberated Russia and the Ukraine from the Nazi invader and fought their way into the heart of the Reich. It reveals the horrors they experienced - the Holocaust, genocide and the mass murder of Soviet POWs - and shows the Red Army, brutalised by war, taking its terrible revenge on the German civilian population.
A dramatic countdown of the final months of World War II in Europe, The Last 100 Days brings to life the waning power and the ultimate submission of the Third Reich. To reconstruct the tumultuous hundred days between Yalta and the fall of Berlin, John Toland traveled more than 100,000 miles in twenty-one countries and interviewed more than six hundred people - from Hitler's personal chauffeur to Generals von Manteuffel, Wenck, and Heinrici.
From freezing infantrymen huddled in bloodied trenches on the front lines to intricate political maneuvering and tense strategy sessions in European capitals, noted historian John Toland tells of the unforgettable final year of the First World War.
As 1918 opened, the Allies and Central Powers remained locked in a desperate, bloody stalemate, despite the deaths of millions of soldiers over the previous three and a half years. The arrival of the Americans "over there" by the middle of the year turned the tide of war, resulting in an Allied victory in November.
In this audiobook, participants on both sides, from enlisted men to generals and prime ministers to monarchs, vividly recount the battles, sensational events, and behind-the-scenes strategies that shaped the climactic, terrifying year. It's all here - the horrific futility of going over the top into a hail of bullets in no man's land; the enigmatic death of the legendary German ace, the Red Baron; Operation Michael, a punishing German attack in the spring; the Americans' long-awaited arrival in June; the murder of Russian Czar Nicholas II and his family, the growing fear of a communist menace in the east; and the armistice on November 11.
The different points of view of Germans, Americans, British, French, and Russians add depth, complexity, and understanding to the tragedies and triumphs of the War to End All Wars.
Great insight to the last year of the Great War,very well worth a listen, informative and very interesting.
There are surprisingly few books available about the last year of WWI, and of those Toland's is often touted as the best. While it's certainly a valuable account of that critical year, purely for the fact that it exists, it's far from perfect.
Toland is not the most objective writer, and is biased in some strange ways. Chief among those is the extremely high regard he has for Douglas Haig, who is portrayed throughout as some sort of misunderstood genius whose true potential is held back only by the meddlesome politicians back in London.
I can think of few British figures as universally maligned as Haig, and you'd probably have to travel back to the days of King John to find person as widely reviled. Yet Toland is constantly going out of his way to portray Haig as eternally patient, infinitely wise and tactically brilliant.
Since no mention is made of Haig's disastrous conduct in the war preceding 1918, readers unfamiliar with the subject will no doubt take Toland's at his word. They will walk away from the book thinking Haig a hero, Lloyd George an idiot and Marshall Petain a coward. This would be most unfortunate, since all of those things are untrue.
All of that being said, there are plenty of fascinating anecdotes here about the war's final year, and the broad strokes of the events as they unfolded are for the most part accurate.
Certainly worth a read, but only with a healthy dose of skepticism regarding his portrayal of the main players.
In the 100th anniversary of WWI, a great work concerning the strange circumstances that ended the war and opened the gates for the rise of Hitler, the decorated war hero of the Great War.
Great account of World War I.
This book takes you through each battle on each front. And the way it's put together makes it story like. It isn't like listening to a history book, this story dives into each battle of the last year and the narratives behind each political move. Great read!
This book works every country - especially Russia - with vignettes at every level of society. I learned much regarding Russia's vacillating fortunes and the intimacy enjoyed of Lenin by American and English representatives.
The narrator was a good choice for this book, with lots of British and French names and words to pronounce. He did a fantastic job; made me feel that I was right there in Europe during the Great War.
Big fan of John Toland's work. I thought this was a great work on the last year of the war. The German offensives that almost cracked the Entente and would have given Germany peace on her terms. The final arrival of US troops and General Pershing's insistence that the US Army/Marines fight as a unit and not piecemeal for the French and British.
Grover Gardner is a great narrator as well. Holds the listener with the ease of a good story teller.
I like the book. All I can say is the French and British didn't give the US much credit for victory. All I can say was the French took credit the British took credit but baseity the war was a stalemate in 1918 so the US came to rescue.
Fantastic work, but with all audible WW1 books, I DONT SPEAK FRENCH!!
The narrative is fantastic, blending strategic narrative with personal vignettes, but like many WW1 works on audible, the prevalence of French generals and politics lends itself to inclusion of excited and sage utterances in French. Unfortunately, a translation or approximation is never included. This is by no means a large pet of the work, but I feel it matters. Certainly in the physical work translations are provided in footnotes, but not included in the audio performance. One loses the humor or drama of the moment, and it breaks the immersion. Regrettable.
