Q: getting substrings in each array index using a delimeter given an array
String original[]={"string0,10","string1,45","string2,3", "string3,67"};

how would I use the comma as a delimeter to create another array with only the names?
I need an array that looks something like this:
String result[]={"string0","string1","string2", "string3"};

A: You can use streams and map from java 8 to do it:
String[] strings = Arrays.stream(test)
            .map(string -> string.split(",")[0])
            .toArray(String[]::new);

A: public static void main(String[] args) {
    String original[]={"string0,10","string1,45","string2,3", "string3,67"};
    int len = original.length;
    String result[] = new String[len];
    for(int i=0; i<len;i++) {
        result[i] = original[i].split(",")[0];
    }

    System.out.println(Arrays.toString(result));
}

*

*DeclareString result[] array

*Iterate the array

*Split the record for every Iteration using , as delimiter

*Now the split operation will return the array of size 2.  It contains name at index 0.

*assign the value the result array.

A:

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;

public class ArraySubstring {

    public static void main (String args[]) {
        String test[]={"string0,10","string1,45","string2,3", "string3,67"};

        String test2[] = Arrays.stream(test).map(s -> s.substring(0, s.indexOf(","))).toArray(String[]::new);
        for (String s : test2) {
            System.out.println(s);
        }
    }
}

Moscow's Syria Campaign 'Breaks Chain of Color Revolutions' in Mid-East, Africa

Moscow has managed to break the chain of color revolutions in the Middle East, the Russian defense minister said.
MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Russia's year-and-a-half counterterrorist campaign in Syria helped solve the geopolitical task of disrupting the chain of revolutions in the region, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said Tuesday.
"The deployment of our group in the Syrian Arab Republic helped solve the geopolitical task of breaking the chain of 'color revolutions' replicated in the Middle East and Africa," Shoigu said at a forum for young diplomats.

Fearing New President's Approach to Russia, Foreign-Sponsored NGOs Plot Color Revolution Scenario for Bulgaria
Since 2011, Syria has been engulfed in a civil war, with government forces fighting against numerous opposition and terrorist groups, including al-Nusra Front and Daesh, banned in a range of countries, including Russia.
Moscow has been conducting a counter-terrorist campaign in Syria since September 30, 2015, at President Bashar Assad's request.
Russian President Vladimir Putin announced in December that the Syrian government and armed opposition groups had reached an agreement on a nationwide ceasefire in Syria and on readiness to start peace talks.
"The likelihood is high that the geography of 'color revolutions' will expand," Shoigu added. "Their implementation allows for a minimal cost of resources and the limited use of own weapons and armed forces to crush regional powers while achieving political and economic goals."
The US-led Western attempts to slow down the process of establishing a new world order lead to chaos and anarchy, the Russian defense minister said.
"Relations between states are becoming increasingly strained. The struggle for resources and control of the routes of their transportation intensifies. Attempts by the West, led by the United States, to slow down the process of establishing a new and more just world order lead to growing chaos, anarchy and encounter rejection on the part of many states," he said.
"Military force is becoming the main tool for solving international problems. A serious factor is the threat of international terrorism," he said.

18th Jun 10:19 Web communications leader Skype begins public testing on Wednesday of a new version of its software for making free or low-cost phone calls that aims to make casual video chatting more common. The Luxembourg-based unit of online auction leader eBay Inc said that public testing of Skype version 4.0 would begin making video a more integral part of the service. The 4.0 test version invites users to post bigger photos of themselves, instead of just thumbnail images, to encourage callers to see and be seen. It also incorporates features for non-technical users that detect computer settings, available bandwidth and connected audio or video devices to make getting started easier. Skype lets users make international computer-to-computer calls to other users in most countries for free, and calls from Skype-equipped computers or phones to landlines or cell phones at low rates. Skype generated $382 million in 2007 revenue and Wall Street analysts expect it to top $500 million in 2008. The five-year-old service counted 309 million registered users as of the end of March, and plays host to 12 million simultaneous users at busy times of day. Its users can send computer instant-messages and text-messages to phones, share big data files or chat via video phone. "Skype users are communicating in many different modes -- often at the same time," said Josh Silverman, a veteran eBay executive who took charge of Skype as president this year. "We thought it was time for software to take that into account," Silverman said in a phone interview. "Now video is really bringing together all those modes of communication." Skype gives computer-based callers a simple way to hold full-screen video chats instead of constricting conversations to a small window in a corner of the screen, as before. Full-screen resolution of video in Skype 4.0 is high-enough quality to let users make real eye-contact, Silverman said. He said Skype was ready to take heat from fans of its classic, small-screen design for the significant revamp in 4.0, which features a more video-friendly, full-screen set-up. Skype has offered video-calling since late 2005, but due to unfamiliarity with it then -- and a lack of Web-camera-ready computers -- it was an after-thought for many users. The rise of video-sharing site YouTube has since popularized, especially among younger users, the use of Web cameras connected to home computers. This has fueled a surge in video calling on Skype, and it already constitutes 28 percent of all calls made on the service, Silverman said. That growing popularity of video-calling has taken place despite the fact that existing versions of Skype software make the video feature hard to find. Users must first start a call to a friend, then find the button to add video to that call. Skype's sometimes-controversial software is built on bandwidth-sharing technology that lends computer processing power to users with less bandwidth from users with spare capacity. This has advantages for improving video call-quality that conventional landline or mobile networks lack. Michael Bartlett, director of Skype product management for Windows, said Skype engineers have designed data-compression technology that enables rich-quality voice conversations with as little as 2 kilobits per second of bandwidth and video calls on connections as slow as 6 kb/s. Version 4.0 takes advantage of faster average speeds -- now typically 256 kb/s or better, he said. For high-resolution, full-screen Skype video calls, 90 Kb/s is ideal, he added. Skype will post further details on its blog later on Wednesday at share.skype.com/sites/en/. No responsibility can be taken for the content of external Internet sites.

Cisco predicts quadruple Kiwi mobile data traffic growth by 2018
By Heather Wright, Tue 11 Feb 2014
While New Zealand may be regarded as a fairly 'mature' market for mobile technology, Cisco is still predicting some sizeable growth ahead, with mobile data traffic expected to grow four times as fast as fixed IP traffic through to 2018.
The vendor's Visual Networking Index (VNI) Forecast 2013-2018, which tracks the growth of internet traffic worldwide, says mobile data traffic will account for 12% of New Zealand fixed and mobile data traffic by 2018, up from 3% in 2013.
Mobile data will grow eight-fold – or at a compound annual growth rate of 51% - between 2013 and 2018, reaching 17.0 Petabytes per month by 2018, up from 2.2 Petabytes/month in 2013.
To put that in perspective, the 2018 figures are the equivalent of four million DVDs a month, or 47 million text messages a second, Cisco says.
When it comes to the devices we'll be using, the report says 80% of mobile connections will be 'smart' connections – well ahead of the global average of 54%. New Zealand was already clocking 50% smart connections in 2013, compared to the global average of just 21%. The report notes that 'smart devices and connections 'have advanced computing/multi-media capabilities and a minimum of 3G connectivity'.
Unsurprisingly, tablets see the greatest jump, accounting for 21% of total mobile data traffic by 2018, up from 8.0% at the end of 2013. Both smartphones and laptops will see a drop, accounting for 60% (down from 74%) and 6%, (down from 14%), respectively.
The VNI Forecast says mobile traffic per mobile-connected device – excluding M2M – will reach 2607 megabytes per month by 2018, up from 427 megabytes/month in 2013, while mobile traffic per mobile connection, including M2M, will reach 1516 megabytes per month, up from 352 megabytes per month.
Following the trend set internationally, where mobile video traffic is expected to account for 69% of all mobile data traffic in 2018, locally mobile video traffic is expected to grow at 59% CAGR, to account for 65% of New Zealand's mobile data traffic by 2018, compared to 50% at the end of 2013.
Streaming audio is expected to account for 11%, down from 19% at the end of 2013, with filesharing also down,from 8% to 5%. Web and other data, excluding M2M, takes the biggest hit, with the report predicting it will account for just 6% of New Zealand's mobile data traffic by 2018, compared to 20% at the end of 2013.
Cloud applications are expected to account for 87% of total mobile data traffic by 2018, compared to 81% at the end of 2013, with mobile cloud traffic reaching 14,877 Terabytes/month by 2018.
M2M traffic meanwhile, is expected to grow 37-fold during the period– a CAGR of 106%, reaching 2.1 Petabytes/month and accounting for 12% of total mobile data traffic by 2018, compared to 3% at the end of 2013. In New Zealand, M2M modules will be 49.0% of device connections by 2018, the report claims.
It says the number of mobile-connected M2M modules was sitting at one million in 2013, with that number expected to grow to six million by 2018.
Consumer:business breakdown
Consumer mobile traffic is predicted to grow 52% CAGR, reaching 13,771 Terabytes/month by 2018 (from 1716 Terabytes/month in 2013) and accounting for 81% of New Zealand's mobile data traffic, up from 79% at the end of 2013.
Business mobile traffic meanwhile will grow at a CAGR of 48%, reaching 3270 Terabytes/month by 2018 and accounting for 19% of mobile data traffic by 2018, down from 21% at the end of 2013.
M2M will account for 64% of business mobile data traffic by 2018, compared to 12% at the end of 2013.

Madison Rayne Talks Almost Retiring From Wrestling, Working Outside Of Impact
By Brandon Ewing | December 21, 2018
Madison Rayne had an incredible year for 2018, from her run in Impact Wrestling, competing in the WWE Mae Young Classic tournament and her current stint with Ring of Honor. Madison Rayne competed at ROH Final Battle against Sumie Sakai, Karen Q, and Kelly Klein for the WOH Championship in a losing effort, as Kelly Klein would go on to win the championship. Madison sat down with Sporting News to talk about her Ring of Honor, leaving Impact Wrestling and almost retiring from wrestling. Here are the highlights:
Her commitment to Ring of Honor:
"My short-term, personal goal after winning the Women of Honor Championship is to be part of that history-making show at Madison Square Garden (in April). I joke and say that it's only natural that Madison Rayne would be at Madison Square Garden, but on more serious note, Ring of Honor is making history in doing this show. I still don't know that I've completely wrapped my brain around how big that's going to be for wrestling, for Ring of Honor, and for Women of Honor."
Being "really close" to retiring from wrestling:
"I would have been OK with it because, for me, I feel like I had a really successful career at Impact. I feel like I was able to contribute to a division that has been strong for many years and continues to be. I've seen places in this world that I didn't know existed prior to going there. I came close enough that there was a serious sit-down conversation between my husband (Impact Wrestling broadcast Josh Mathews) and I in our house. I never got to a point in my brain where I said to myself, 'I'm done.' I had strong enough thoughts that it was at least a conversation. For me, that's close enough."
Madison Rayne Reveals Why she Didn't Sign With WWE
Leaving Impact Wrestling after nine years and wrestling in other promotions:
"It was uncomfortable in a good way. I had the tryout at the WWE Performance Center and that felt way different than anything I had ever done at Impact. I got back out on the indie scene a bit more. I was with Ring of Honor. I went back to Shimmer and all of those places felt good, but it was just different. It's like the difference in being a freshman in high school to a senior."
Madison Rayne also discusses the one-year deal she signed with ROH, and more about her run in 2018. You can read the full interview here.

Q: How do I connect to a Lotus Notes DB through VBA? I'm trying to connect to a Lotus Notes database via VBA in Microsoft Access 2003.  The code I have is as follows:
Set nSession = CreateObject("Notes.NotesSession")
Set nDatabase = nSession.GetDatabase("CN=MT_N01/O=Org Name", "LossPrevention\BrchPrVI.nsf", False)
I've tried variations for the server name, but nothing seems to work.  In Lotus Notes it appears as "Server: MT_N01/Org Name".  I've tried just "MT_N01" and "MT_N01/Org Name", but the NotesDatabase variable keeps ending up empty.
Any tips?

A: I might be wrong here, but I think you should call the Initialize() method of the session prior to using it.
Take a look at the samples here: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus/library/domino-msnet/index.html

A: I think that behaviour is normal; VBA knows nDatabase is a variant/object, but does not know anything about its contents. At least that is what I get when I try your code in Excel 2003.
Try to return something from the database object, for example nDatabase.ReplicaID should return the database identity string. If the databas is not properly loaded, you will get an error.
Many good links are posted in response to the ".NET and Lotus Notes Interop." question.

A: Unless you also need to us the NotesUIWorkspace class and its child classes to manipulate the Notes client user interface, you should be using the "Lotus.NotesSession" class instead of the "Notes.NotesSession" class.  And as per the answer from @Sagultay, you should be calling nSession.Intialize().

Windows 11 signals end of the old-school Windows desktop
In the long run, Microsoft wants users to switch to a Desktop-as-a-Service model, and the first steps on this journey may already be in place on conventional Windows PC.
Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols (Computerworld (US)) 09 March, 2022 07:00
Credit: Microsoft
I've called Windows 11 a pointless upgrade. My reasoning was that it came with compatibility problems and really added nothing to Windows 10. Sure, it includes better security. But, spoiler alert, most of those improvements were already in the 20H2 release (Windows 10 October 2020 Update) edition. You just have to turn them on.
So, what is Windows 11's point? I think it's to slowly get you used to the idea of Windows-as-a-Service (WaaS).
Microsoft has been moving users to this Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) model for years now. Today, you can already subscribe to the easy-to-use Windows 365 Cloud PC. Or, if you want more control and features, there's Windows 365 Enterprise or Azure Virtual Desktop.
But these are all more business than consumer plays. And, while Microsoft loves its business customers, it still likes its home sales, too. Of course, the difference between home and work is blurring more then ever thanks to the growing work-from-home movement.
With all this in mind, when I look at recent Windows 11 changes, I see clear signs that Windows 11 is the Trojan horse bringing WaaS to everyone — whether you want it or not.
First, Microsoft sneaked a Microsoft subscription manager into the February 2022 Windows 11 update. Check it out: look into the Windows 11 Settings menu Accounts and you'll find a new section "Your Microsoft account." There, you'll find your Microsoft 365 subscription status, how full your OneDrive cloud storage is, and other details.
Trust me, it says, having a subscription to our cloud services is a normal part of Windows. Relax, accept that Windows is part of a cloud-based Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) world now.
Wait? Didn't Microsoft say it was only going to be adding features to Windows 11 once a year? Ahem, yes it did. But, Microsoft fibbed. Windows 11 will get Feature, Web, and Online Service Experience Packs whenever Microsoft wants to update them. That wailing you hear in the distance? That's Windows 11 sysadmins worrying what mischief the hidden features will bring with them.
Leaving that aside, there is one subscription missing from this new feature — remember what I just said about mischief? — and that's the Xbox Game Pass. It's almost like Microsoft was thinking of business first with this update, and fun with your Xbox games second.
Then, a few weeks later, the Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22567 for the Dev Channel arrived. And what should we find in it? Why Windows 11 now asks for your credit card information from inside Windows. Of course, Microsoft has been asking for your credit card information for transactions via your Microsoft Account web page for ages now. So, what's the big deal?
Well, it makes Windows a trifle easier to use for purchases. What I think is important is that, in combination with the subscription feature, this makes it easier for you to pay not just for Microsoft 365, but easier to pay for Windows itself. No longer will Windows be a one-and-done purchase. It will be forever a subscription service with only one foot in your PC and the other ever more firmly in the cloud.
While I like the DaaS model in its place, I also like having my operating system under my control and primarily on my PC. So, I'm going to continue to use the Linux desktop as my main operating system. As for everyone else, I hope you're OK with trusting Microsoft for all your computing work, because now more than ever, Microsoft, and not you, will be calling the shots.

The determination of the sources of copper ore used in the manufacture of copper and bronze artifacts of Bronze Age civilizations would add greatly to our knowledge of cultural contacts and trade in that era. Researchers have analyzed artifacts and ores for their concentrations of elements, but for a variety of reasons, these studies have generally failed to provide evidence of the sources of the copper used in the objects. Elemental composition can vary within the same copper-ore lode, usually because of varying admixtures of other elements, especially iron, lead, zinc, and arsenic. And high concentrations of cobalt or zinc, noticed in some artifacts, appear in a variety of copper-ore sources. Moreover, the processing of ores introduced poorly controlled changes in the concentrations of minor and trace elements in the resulting metal. Some elements evaporate during smelting and roasting; different temperatures and processes produce different degrees of loss. Finally, flux, which is sometimes added during smelting to remove waste material from the ore, could add quantities of elements to the final product.
An elemental property that is unchanged through these chemical processes is the isotopic composition of each metallic element in the ore. Isotopic composition, the percentages of the different isotopes of an element in a given sample of the element, is therefore particularly suitable as an indicator of the sources of the ore. Of course, for this purpose it is necessary to find an element whose isotopic composition is more or less constant throughout a given ore body, but varies from one copper ore body to another or, at least, from one geographic region to another.
The ideal choice, when isotopic composition is used to investigate the source of copper ore, would seem to be copper itself. It has been shown that small but measurable variations occur naturally in the isotopic composition of copper. However, the variations are large enough only in rare ores; between samples of the common ore minerals of copper, isotopic variations greater than the measurement error have not been found. An alternative choice is lead, which occurs in most copper and bronze artifacts of the Bronze Age in amounts consistent with the lead being derived from the copper ores and possibly from the fluxes. The isotopic composition of lead often varies from one source of common copper ore to another, with variations exceeding the measurement error; and preliminary studies indicate virtually uniform is topic composition of the lead from a single copper-ore source. While some of the lead found in an artifact may have been introduced from flux or when other metals were added to the copper ore, lead so added in Bronze Age processing would usually have the same isotopic composition as the lead in the copper ore. Lead isotope studies may thus prove useful for interpreting the archaeological record of the Bronze Age.

Q: How to get the size of a struct within a union in C? How do you get the size of a struct within a union in C?
Given the following definition:
typedef union
{
    struct req_
    {
        uint8_t cmd1;
        uint8_t cmd2;
    } req;

    struct rsp_
    {
        uint8_t cmd_result;
        uint8_t status_1;
        uint8_t status_2;
        uint8_t status_3;
        uint8_t status_4;
    } rsp;
} msg_t;

sizeof(msg_t) would provide the maximum size of the union, which in this case, would be 5 as rsp_ is greater than req_.
How do you get sizeof(req_)?

A: Like this:
sizeof(struct req_);

For example:
int main()
{
    printf("sizeof msg_t=%zd\n",sizeof(msg_t));
    printf("sizeof struct req_=%zd\n",sizeof(struct req_));
}

Output:
sizeof msg_t=5
sizeof struct req_=2

A: req_ is a structure tag. You need to either put struct with it
size_t size = sizeof(struct req_);

or use the struct variable declared
size_t size = sizeof(msg_t.req_.req);

Wolf opponents, proponents face off in Portland
Herald and News by Holly Owens 5/23/17
The two sides of the wolf conservation movement faced off in Portland on Friday as the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife hosted a public meeting on the proposed conservation management plan for the embattled canid.
On one side, ranchers, mostly from the northeastern corner of the state, told wildlife commissioners that the current draft of the plan didn't give them enough leeway to take lethal measures to protect their cattle and other livestock from wolves.
On the other side of the debate, conservation advocates referred to the most recent numbers released by the state — which showed population growth of wolves was stagnant at best — while arguing that wolves needed at least the same, if not greater, levels of protection they've enjoyed in the past.
"This is a very divisive issue," said commission chair MIchael Finley, addressing the dozens of people who gathered in a conference room at the Embassy Suites Hotel near Portland International Airport. "Our job is to come together to protect these animals and to do so reasonably."
As a backdrop, fish and wildlife officials said in February that the wolf population had stabilized and passed a threshold of three consecutive years with greater than seven breeding pairs. Officials decided to remove the animal from Oregon's endangered species list in 2015, but the wolf remains under federal protections in Western Oregon.
There were at least 112 wolves counted in the state in 2016, but that represents an increase of only two over the previous year's count. Last year's annual wolf report documented seven wolf deaths in 2016.
One of the most-urgent requests from ranchers was to include language in the plan to give some local control to officials who could facilitate investigations after livestock is killed. Specifically, ranchers have asked the state to empower state police and county sheriff's to make rulings on the cause of death.
Jill McClaren, of the Wallowa County Stockgrowers Association, said that one of her calves was discovered dead on her property earlier this month, but because it was a weekend, there were no investigators available to take on the case. She had to wait until the following Monday to drive the carcass into town herself, and by then, she said, evidence the kill had been perpetrated by a wolf had been washed away by rain.
The state eventually ruled the cause of death as "other."
Rob Klavins, a farmer from Wallowa County and field coordinator for the advocacy group Oregon Wild, told the commission that local elected officials should not be the ones ruling on the cause of death in suspected depredation events.
"Local control sounds good," he said. "But consequential decisions should not be subject to local politics and pressure."
State officials documented 24 confirmed killings of livestock in 2016, a significant increase from the nine confirmed the year before. The state investigated 67 incidents in 10 counties where ranchers or livestock owners claimed a wolf killed their animal, but were only able to confirm the 24 incidents.
In the previous version of the plan, chronic depredation was defined as "two confirmed or one confirmed and three attempted depredations" in any given time period. The draft would change the definition to "three confirmed depredations or one confirmed and four probable depredations within a 12-month period."
Ranchers rejected the proposed definition as untenable, saying there were fewer than four depredation events deemed "probably" in the entire state last year. Wolf advocates argued the opposite.
Also at issue was a provision in the draft that would allow the state to issue permits for hunters and trappers to kill wolves identified in chronic depredation events, an idea favored by ranchers.
Nick Cady, legal director for the conservation group Cascadia Wildlands, pushed back on the proposal, saying it would effectively incentivize the killing of wolves and could lead to innocent animals being killed.
"We oppose the use of public or private hunters," he told the commission. "We can't have a situation where a cash-strapped agency charges money to kill wolves. It creates an incentive."
The commission didn't take any action to change the plan on Friday, but did plan for another meeting to discuss the topics raised at their next meeting on July 8 in Salem.
A date for adoption of the final plan has not been set.

StorySign app for hearing impaired children
An app that helps enrich story time for children who are deaf or hard of hearing has been launched by Huawei Australia. The StorySign uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to create an authentic reading experience and features the popular children's book, Where's Spot. The app translates the book into sign language page by page to deliver a story time experience for both parent and child.
Huawei Australia has entered into a partnership with Deaf Australia to help raise awareness of deaf literacy more broadly in the community.
Deaf children don't learn to read in the same way as hearing children, Deaf Australia CEO, Kyle Miers said, and many struggle to learn how to read because they can't match words with sounds. "The deaf community is in need of accessible content to address children's literacy development needs and digital tools like StorySign are addressing this necessity.
"For this reason, we are privileged to be working with Huawei on the StorySign project and how, through the use of AI and innovative technology, it could enrich the lives of Australian deaf children and their families in a meaningful way."
Huawei Australia corporate responsibility manager, Lisa Connors, said the company believes in the power of AI and how the technology can make a positive difference in the world. "We created StorySign to help make it possible for families with deaf children to enjoy the magical moments of story time."
Created with experts and charities from the deaf community in Australia, the UK and Europe, StorySign was developed to ensure its use as a genuinely useful tool for families with deaf and hearing-impaired children.
StorySign can be downloaded free from Google Play Store and the Huawei AppGallery and is compatible with Auslan.

At 96, Poet And Beat Publisher Lawrence Ferlinghetti Isn't Done Yet The publisher of Allen Ginsberg's iconic poem "Howl" has three books coming out this year and is also working on a novel. Looking back, he says, "Everything was better than it is when you're old."
San Francisco's beat poets from 60 years ago might not recognize their city today. Amid all the tech startups and social media entrepreneurs, though, one familiar face remains, Lawrence Ferlinghetti. He was the main publisher of Beat Generation poets like Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg. Today, he's still co-owner of City Lights, one of the most celebrated independent bookstores in America. At age 96, Ferlinghetti is publishing three books this year. NPR's Richard Gonzales recently paid him a visit to talk about his latest work.
LAWRENCE FERLINGHETTI: So just go right up.
RICHARD GONZALES, BYLINE: Lawrence Ferlinghetti lives in a modest second-story walk-up in San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood. On his walls, his doctorate from the Sorbonne, an unframed Gaugin print, and posters of celebrated poetry readings dating back to the days when he personified a hip, literate and rebellious San Francisco - not that he's nostalgic.
FERLINGHETTI: Everything was better than it is when you're old (laughter).
GONZALES: These are quieter days now for the internationally acclaimed poet and painter. His eyes are going, but his mind and humor are sharp. And he's generous with his time as he greets a visitor with a surprise.
FERLINGHETTI: I see you've got those reporter's notebooks. I wrote - I wrote a whole novel here in these reporter's notebooks (laughter).
FERLINGHETTI: Seventy-eight of them there.
GONZALES: We'll get back to his unfinished novel a bit later. From his desk window, Ferlinghetti can survey his North Beach neighborhood, which he says is changing like the rest of San Francisco. Take, for example, his favorite neighborhood coffee shop, where he says no one talks to anyone else anymore because they're all staring at a screen.
FERLINGHETTI: And yesterday morning, I was walking down there, and a guy passed me. I said, good morning. He didn't even look at me. He just went right on past (laughter).
GONZALES: The guy probably didn't know he was ignoring the man who helped spark a literary revolution. Ferlinghetti was a young bookstore owner in 1956 when he first published Allen Ginsberg's iconic Beat-era poem, "Howl."
ALLEN GINSBERG: I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving, hysterical, naked.
GONZALES: Ginsberg's poem is a critique of American materialism and sexually explicit. Its publication landed Ferlinghetti and an associate in hot water. They were busted for selling obscene literature, and their trial drew international attention.
FERLINGHETTI: And then Judge Horn rendered his decision that a book could not be considered obscene if it had the slightest redeeming social significance.
GONZALES: It was a redeeming victory for Ferlinghetti. His own ideas about freedom were forged as a Navy lieutenant commander in World War II, who not only saw action in Normandy but also the ruins of Nagasaki.
FERLINGHETTI: So that made me an instant pacifist.
GONZALES: The "Howl" trial also brought national attention to what would be called the Beat Generation. It included writers like William Burroughs and Jack Kerouac. But Ferlinghetti says he never considered himself a part of that movement because his poetry was less frenetic than the Beats. In 1958, Ferlinghetti published his first book of poetry, "A Coney Island Of The Mind."
FERLINGHETTI: Constantly risking absurdity and death. Whenever he performs above the heads of his audience, the poet, like an acrobat, climbs on rime to a high wire of his own making.
GONZALES: "A Coney Island Of The Mind" was translated into more than a dozen languages. It would sell over a million copies, making Ferlinghetti arguably the best-selling American poet of the last century. Yet, when you mention his name today, many San Franciscans will likely point to City Lights, his landmark bookstore in North Beach.
PAUL YAMASAKI: To put it simply, the last five years have been the best five years in City Lights bookstore economic history in terms of sales.
GONZALES: Paul Yamasaki has been working in the bookstore for 45 years. He leads us through the store's many nooks and crannies, crammed full of books from floor to ceiling, perused by City Lights' loyal customer base.
YAMASAKI: I think the essence of what Lawrence does is really looking at literature that represents both hope and resistance and broader possibilities of a just world, you know, that also embraces literary excellence.
GONZALES: But what the customers won't see is Ferlinghetti himself. At age 96, he rarely visits the bookstore anymore. But he still lunches regularly with friends and keeps a brisk schedule with visitors. And 2015 is a busy year. He's publishing the 60th anniversary edition of the "City Lights Pocket Poets Series." It's a collection of poetry packaged to fit into anyone's back pocket or purse. Ferlinghetti's also publishing a book of selected correspondence between himself and Allen Ginsberg. And there's a compilation of his travel journals, "Writing Across The Landscape," dating back to 1944, which will be published by Norton Liveright Books in September. And then, of course, there's a novel he's working on, the one that's still in all those notebooks.
FERLINGHETTI: I'm writing a stream of consciousness novel. It's an endless novel and may never be finished. It could be called "Portrait Of The Artist As An Old Red."
GONZALES: An old red, the likes of which San Francisco may never see again. Richard Gonzales, NPR News, San Francisco.


Juan Williams to young men of color: "You've got to take responsibility"
Fox News host Juan Williams: The deck may be stacked against young men of color but ultimately "You've got to take responsibility for your life."
Fox News co-host Juan Williams says the academic performance gap that exists between young men of color and their female counterparts is "one of the major concerns of my lifetime."
Williams, a veteran journalist, author and co-host of "The Five" on Fox News Network, is speaking in Greenville Friday at Clemson University's Men of Color National Summit. The Greenville News caught up with the Washington, D.C.-based Williams by phone on Tuesday. We asked him why he thinks there aren't more men of color opting to pursue a college education.
"You start to look at so many of the roots," he said. "Let's put the roots to the side. A lot of things are stacked against you in society, but you've got to take responsibility."
One of the first things young men need to do is to "get as much education as you can. High school graduates make more money than people who don't graduate from high school and college grads make more than people who don't graduate."
Making smart personal decisions is also critical, he said. "Don't get married or have children until you have some education and job security."
Having people around who can model that behavior makes a huge difference, he said. Growing up, Williams looked up to his father and uncles.Two mentors early in his career also made a huge difference, he said.
Williams, who has authored books about South African president Nelson Mandela and Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall, plans to talk with students about what allowed these famous men to thrive despite adversity. "These are people who didn't let the broader structure beat them down." In examining the lives of people who are smart and persistent, he said, you can see how they made a way despite their circumstances.
Williams' latest book, "What the hell do you have to lose? Trump's war on Civil Rights," is expected to be released in September.
As the resident Democrat at Fox News, Williams receives his fair share of criticism. The "fake news" narrative pushed by the president and his supporters undermines democracy, said Williams. "(His) calling the press the enemy of the American people is so disappointing."
An informed public helps people make good decisions at the ballot box, he said.
As a Fox News personality, Williams enjoys hearing from people who have a different perspective than his. He thrives on it and learns from it. "Too often in contemporary politics discussion is not valued."


Winston Churchill towered over his own age, when he was variously described as "the saviour of his country," "the leader of humanity" or "the man of the century". More remarkably, he has towered over fifty years and more since his since his death in 1965. He overshadows both his country, whose recent history has been called "an extended footnote to Churchill," and the United States, where a great cult of Churchill has burgeoned.
This magnificent account of Churchill's life and afterlife − the first of its kind − has been more than ten years in the making. It is not a conventional biography but a brilliantly written account of Churchill's long life, the cult that arose almost immediately after his death, and his place in popular culture, up to the Oscar-winning film Darkest Hour in 2017. While it is not deliberately hostile, it does provide an invaluable antidote to hero-worship.

Schtscherbinka () ist ein Stadtteil der russischen Hauptstadt Moskau mit  Einwohnern (Stand ). Er gehört zum Verwaltungsbezirk Nowomoskowski und liegt 37 km südlich des Moskauer Stadtzentrums sowie zehn Kilometer nördlich der Großstadt Podolsk.

Geschichte
Als Dorf war Schtscherbinka seit dem 14. Jahrhundert bekannt. Nach der Verlegung der Eisenbahnstrecke Moskau – Kursk in den 1870er-Jahren, die nahe an dem Ort vorbeiführte, erhielt Schtscherbinka dank der Bemühungen des Gutsherren Suschkin 1895 einen kleinen Haltepunkt an dieser Strecke. Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts wurde im Ort eine Ziegelei errichtet. In den 1920er-Jahren kamen einige weitere, kleinere Fabriken hinzu. 1939 erhielt das ehemalige Dorf mit den umliegenden Industriebauten den Status einer Arbeitersiedlung (Siedlung städtischen Typs), die 1975 offiziell zur Stadt wurde.

Ab 2005 bildete Schtscherbinka als dessen einzige Ortschaft einen gleichnamigen Stadtkreis der Oblast Moskau. Zum 1. Juli 2012 wurde der Stadtkreis Schtscherbinka nach Moskau eingemeindet und in dessen neu geschaffenen Verwaltungsbezirk Nowomoskowski eingegliedert. Es bildet seither eine der elf "Gemeinden" des Verwaltungsbezirkes.

Bevölkerungsentwicklung

Anmerkung: Volkszählungsdaten

Wirtschaft
In Schtscherbinka hat die produzierende Industrie eine große Bedeutung. Landesweit bekannt ist die 1954 gegründete Fahrstuhl-Fabrik. In Schtscherbinka befindet sich auch das Allrussische Forschungsinstitut für Schienenverkehr, das den Versuchsring Schtscherbinka betreibt, auf dem Eisenbahnfahrzeuge und Oberbaumaterialien getestet werden.

Q: :hover works in Chrome but not Firefox For some reason Firefox just doesn't like :hover.  The codes work fine in Chrome however.
html:

  <%= image_tag("worldmap.png", :usemap => "#worldmap", :class => "mapper") %>
  <map name="worldmap">
    <area shape="rect" coords="505,244,546,278" class="target" data-textboxleft="Text 1">
    <area shape="rect" coords="481,189,503,207" class="target" data-textboxleft="Text 2">
  </map>

CSS:
.target[data-textboxleft]:hover:after {
  content: attr(data-textboxleft);
  background: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
  color: white;
  font-family: Papyrus;
  font-size: 16px;
  font-style: oblique;
  height: 50px;
  width: 180px;
  position: absolute;
  text-align: center;
  padding-top: 12px;
  left: 0;
  top: 0;
}

A: I eventually figured it out using jQuery.

  <%= image_tag("worldmap.png", :usemap => "#worldmap", :class => "mapper") %>
  <map name="worldmap">
    <area shape="rect" coords="505,244,546,278" class="target" data-name="Text 1">
    <area shape="rect" coords="481,189,503,207" class="target" data-name="Text 2">

  </map>

css:
#boxleft {
  display: none;
  background: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
  color: white;
  font-family: Papyrus;
  font-size: 14px;
  font-style: oblique;
  opacity: 1;
  height: 50px;
  width: 180px;
  position: absolute;
  text-align: center;
  padding-top: 12px;
  left: 0;
  top: 0;
  border: 2px solid $gray-lighter;
}

A: The area element doesn't accept the :hover selector, so you achieve the effect you want with your current code. There are a couple of ways around it using jQuery Plugin, MapHilight or using canvas.
Have a look at these answers [Visible Area tag?  and  How to apply Hovering on html area tag?

Consider this my annual obligatory "I'm-glad-I-wasn't-travelling-in-China-during-Golden-Week" post.
Of course it's not entirely true that everyone gets the week off, since there has to be someone to fly the planes, man the ticket booths, work in the shops, and cook the food. But pretty much everyone else in the country had the week off and they took to the streets, the skies, and the tourist spots.
And let this be a reminder to you that if anyone ever suggests that you visit China the first week of October, just imagine yourself in one of these photos. Then politely decline.

Modern, digital-savvy consumers are radically different than previous generations of auto shoppers. Over the past 20 years, Amazon has taught them to seek out highly personalized, frictionless omnichannel customer experiences.
Meanwhile, Apple's 2007 introduction of the iPhone has fundamentally changed consumer behavior, with customers multitasking across multiple devices—often at the same time—when consuming advertisements.
Automotive marketers are still struggling with this fragmentation in the digital customer journey.
Currently, most OEMs employ a bifurcated bookend strategy: They use TV and online linear video at the top of the funnel to drive awareness, and digital remarketing tactics to drive leads at the bottom of the funnel.
Video (along with TV) remains the primary media channel for brand storytelling because the best way to tell stories with emotion is by using sight and sound. As consumers progress deeper into the funnel, the communications become more transactional in nature; it's not about storytelling so much as driving action.
There is a gaping hole in this model—the lack of tactics in the middle tier. The middle tier is where the overarching brand promise becomes tangible through the model offerings.
At this point, consumers have added the brand to their consideration set and now want time to research the brand's offering online. They want to understand the feature benefits of a particular model, and how it might integrate into their daily life.
This is the customer expectation, but think about what happens today: A car shopper sees a brand video or two, maybe performs some casual searches, and then visits the brand's web site.
She is still starting her research, but the brand is in a full sell mode. All she sees are display ads with lease offers, dealer locations, and buy-now calls to action (CTAs). The race to the bottom of the funnel is on.
Compounding the problem, if the brand's awareness campaigns are weak—and the emotional connection is lacking—it only accelerates the bottom-feeding tactics at the expense of the customer experience.
Most OEMs make available on their online properties the research tools required to help customers with their research, including technical specs, model comparisons, pricing calculators, and vehicle configurators.
The problem is that these tools are not incorporated into the customer-experience journey in paid media. As noted earlier, once we have a customer on the hook, we tend to bypass these steps and drive them straight to the purchase.
Mid-funnel marketing is fundamentally about messaging. It's about replacing the beat-them-over-the-head buy-now CTAs with more subtle tactics—"Explore Now," "Learn More," "Build Your Own," etc.—that allow customers to progress down the funnel at their own pace.
This type of messaging is about incorporating visual imagery that helps the customer envision herself in the vehicle, or how she or others might view her when she drives it. It's also about incorporating messaging points that reinforce the brand promise, or validate the customer's reasons for purchasing the vehicle.
All of these personalized messaging elements can be triggered off incoming data signals from your DMP, DSP, or website.
For example, consider when consumers engage with one of your make's SUV models. In the same way you tell the story of your brand in the awareness stage, there is also a story to be told about this SUV in the mid-funnel.
This story is best told through the sights and sound of a video ad, rather than in a display banner. At the same time, you don't want to have a one-size-fits-all video.
What you want to do is deepen the emotional connection by personalizing the videos for each interested audience: the parent buying a family car, the adventure-seeker buying it for camping and paddling trips, the boomer looking for a sporty retirement vehicle, or the style-conscious individual looking to make a fashion statement.
Today, this is possible because the technology now exists to incorporate personalized text overlays and end frames. This allows you to achieve one level of personalization through the video versions themselves, and another through the personalized overlays.
There is also a very real opportunity for video in bottom-funnel tactics. Today, auto marketers rely on digital banner ads to deliver their Tier 2/3 retargeting messages. These often feature an image of the vehicle combined with a dealer address or, perhaps, a map.
But for many consumers, the issue is not so much locating the dealer as it answering the question "Am I doing the right thing?" They are looking for some validation before making this big purchase. A banner ad is not going to provide much comfort.
A video, however, that reminds the customer how she will feel in the vehicle, combined with a midframe with "validation points" and an endframe with the offer and dealer location could do the trick.
The fact remains that as car buyers continue to choose customer experience over brands, automotive marketers are wise to free themselves from the limitations of the current bifurcated channel approach, where video is viewed exclusively as a top-of-funnel tactic and digital as a bottom-feeder tactic.
In other words, you should be much more mindful of consumer modality per channel as you allocate your methods.
As marketers get wiser and operate in this more-considered manner, I'd expect personalized video to become more widely used. It is positioned to not only solve many common marketing issues, but to truly advance the art of cross-channel, data-driven marketing, giving sight and sound a real place in the mix.

Cruise Ship Rape & Sexual Assault, International Maritime
Carnival Valor Crew Member Arrested Following Sexual Assault in St. Kitts; Why Victim Should Consult with a Cruise Ship Rape Lawyer
Earlier this week, we reported on an alleged sexual assault aboard a cruise ship in St. Kitts on June 6. There wasn't much information on the supposed incident at first, aside from suggestions that the alleged assailant was a crew member, but a recent article published by a local news source has confirmed that the assault did in fact take place and the attacker was in fact a Carnival crew member.
According to the news source, the assault occurred onboard the Carnival Valor, while the vessel was berthed at Port Zante. Details are still scarce, but the source reports that cruise operators alerted local authorities of the incident and the assailant was taken into custody the same day and charged with rape. The victim was a female passenger aboard the ship, but due to privacy concerns, their identity was not revealed. Unlike a victim's privacy rights, however, the identity of the assailant can be disclosed. Strangely, neither local authorities nor Carnival operators have yet to provide details on the crew member's name or the circumstances surrounding the assault.
We here find it extremely odd that the details regarding this cruise ship rape – which occurred nearly a week ago – still remain so ambiguous. Though cruise lines have long failed to accurately report crimes aboard their ships, especially sexual crimes, the identity of the assailant is usually revealed a few days after the incident is initially reported. This particular incident seems to be under wraps, which leads us to believe there may be something neither local authorities nor Carnival want to reveal.
First off, the fact that the attack happened in a foreign port already limits the amount of information that will reach us here in the US. Due to the inherent complexity in maritime laws, St. Kitts police have jurisdiction over the investigation process, since it was reported in sovereign waters. Local police were the ones to decide whether or not the arrest should have taken place, and now, it's up to local police to determine the fate of the suspect. Local authorities might choose to prosecute the individual, or they might choose to have the crew member extradited to their home country, and allow that country's authorities to take over the case. This is the typical outcome because cruise lines are more than happy to send the suspect back home so they don't have to deal with them.
This is what happened in the case of a former cruise line crew member who assaulted two girls in the UK. The assaults occurred during the 1980s, but due to the fact that the suspect had left his country and police could not locate him, the case was closed. It wasn't until recently that one of the victims (remarkably) found the assailant, who had been living in Mississippi, through Facebook and suspect was arrested, extradited and charged in the UK.
But while the UK assailant was brought to justice, this is unfortunately the exception rather than the rule. This if often because laws governing sexual attacks are not as strict in some countries, and many times, assailants are protected by their home country's government or the cruise lines themselves, if the suspect is a crew member. From the cruise line's standpoint, the negative press surrounding a sexual assault on a ship is enough to damage the line's reputation, so often, cruise lines will choose to conceal the incident completely or provide only minimal details. This is especially true, given the fact that most sexual assaults on cruise ships occur because there is a dire lack of solid safety policies across the entire cruise industry. News of a sexual assault brings to light the negligence of the cruise line in failing to provide passengers a safe environment where they do not have to worry about their lives being threatened. Many onboard sexual attacks are prevtable if the cruise line would simply: a) perform more thorough background checks on individuals applying for crew member positions, b) actually monitor security cameras or hire a greater number of security personnel; and c) warn its passengers of the frequent problem of sexual assaults at sea.
Sadly, this will likely not occur anytime soon because of the absence of effective, stringent regulation over the cruise industry. Plus, where such a sharp discrepancy exists between what the US deems a crime and what other countries or cruise lines are willing to let slide, innumerable sexual assailants have avoided liability for the crimes they've committed.
For these reasons, it is absolutely imperative that anyone who has been sexually assaulted onboard a cruise ship – whether by another passenger or a crew member – contact a cruise ship rape lawyer who is well-versed in all maritime statutes and laws protecting the victims of sexual crimes. Sadly, cruise line policies and foreign governments will often protect the assailant, especially when the assailant is a crew member. The only way to ensure a sexual assault victim obtains justice is by consulting with an attorney who protects the victim, not those responsible for the crime.

Master Curtis - I have been doing Tae Kwon Do (TKD) for over 25 years. As a young student studying TKD it was about kicks and punching. As my journey continued I realized it was my pathway to teaching. My mission is to teach confidence and have a great attitude - because that is what it is all about. I want to reach out to as many people to spread the "I Can" attitude, and "Attitude Is Everything!!". TKD changed my life in so many ways. I know, if you allow it, TKD can change you (and your families) too!
The class will be fun while working on focus, discipline, balance, coordination, and basic Tae Kwon Do moves to earn their belts.
For your child to learn confidence in ones self at an early age for a better future!
Each class is 40-45 minutes long, 1 class per week and each session is 6 classes.

are you for real chuck? both cisse goals were offside?
I can't be the only one thinking this was a case of possible fixing, right?
I've watched the videos several times now and the decisions get worse each time. Especially the first one, which really isn't even close.
tunyc, I didn't want to say anything until I'd deeply probed it, but I have heard that FC Metalist have been under investigation by the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne. It's for alleged match fixing in a domestic game against FC Karpaty Lviv.
I don't know why I wrote "alleged" above. Metalist have already been found guilty and sanctioned by Ukraimian authorities for it.
And what has any of the above to do with a linesmans decission.
You folks sound not only paranoid, but crazy.
Some of you gotta get out a bit more!
To me having recorded the game and watched it several times the first goal is clearly onside by at least a yard. The length of time taken by the linesman to raise his flag indicates he was clearly unsure of himself and made a guess. Very poor linesman, should be removed from Europa competition. The second goal could be called either way. Maybe Cisse had a leg out in front, maybe not. We should have won and I hope the fix wasn't in. Can't fault the team or Pardew for this one.
Just so GeordieTwo, that's a very good way of summing them up. He definitely had a bit of leg in front for the second one though. Their bodies were very level but they were in different parts of their stride.
bang on lads…ukrainian mafia got to that cnut ov a linesman..if thats true about them already been done Worky,how the fk have they been allowed to play in europe?..money talks?
Now let's not jump the gun here. Linesmen make very poor calls quite often and it doesn't necessarily mean they are bent. FC Metalist are also under different ownership since the affair I mentioned above too.
think i read something about these syndicates/mafia/gangsters grabbing n bribing young officals in this latest match fixing scandal.am not saying the officals from last night have defo been nobbled but it is a touch suspicous that both times Cisse puts the ball in the net that lino sticks his flag up.
Jack, you can also look at it from the other side too. Cisse has had a reputation for jumping the gun recently including in that game. When that happens, sometimes linesmen (shite ones) just get lazy and lift their flags every time that certain player makes a run for it.
On the subject of the "Ukrainian mafia," there are still two Ukraines really, a Russian Ukraine and a proper Ukraine which are almost a 50/50 split and there's a constant power struggle between the two factions. Kharkiv is just over the Russian border, hence it's very Russian. So I would say that a Kharkiv mafia would be more of a Russian mafia than a Ukrainian mafia.
aye Worky,if they were prem officals fair do's,they kna Cisse is the Inzaghi ov the prem,but officals from Norway…howay man.so sorry mate am not having that as an excuse n cant agree wiv you on that one.
Definitely some lousy decisions (on the part of one linesman in particular) but, on a positive note, they've missed their chance to score away goals.
We can still do well over there.
If Pardieu fields a decent team (and cancels the half-time talk), I think we'll go through.

Neepawa Natives' Metcalf named Recycle Everywhere MJHL Player of the Week
Neepawa Natives have made the MJHL playoffs for the first time in seven seasons, thanks in large part to the outstanding play of Justin Metcalf, who has been named this week's Recycle Everywhere MJHL Player of the Week.
Metcalf, 19, recorded eight points (4-4) in the final four games of the regular season. Three of those four games were Neepawa wins, helping the club secure the eighth and final playoff berth. Natives will now face Steinbach Pistons in their best-of-seven, quarter final series.
Metcalf, who hails from Winnipeg, had three, multi-point games and was twice named a game star. He also finished first in the Natives' scoring race with 38 goals and 67 points in 59 games.
The runners up are 20 year old forward Cole McCartan of the Selkirk Steelers and 20 year old goaltender Roman Bengert of the Steinbach Pistons.
