Journal editors should consider retracting a publication if:
they have clear evidence that the findings are unreliable, either as a result of misconduct (e.g., data fabrication) or honest error (e.g., miscalculation or experimental error)
the findings have previously been published elsewhere without proper crossreferencing, permission or justification (i.e., cases of redundant publication
it constitutes plagiarism
it reports unethical research
Journal editors should consider issuing an expression of concern if:
they receive inconclusive evidence of research or publication misconduct by the authors
there is evidence that the findings are unreliable, but the authors' institution will not investigate the case
they believe that an investigation into alleged misconduct related to the publication either has not been or would not be, fair and impartial or conclusive
an investigation is underway, but a judgment will not be available for a considerable time
Journal editors should consider issuing a correction if:
a small portion of an otherwise reliable publication proves to be misleading (primarily because of honest error)
the author/contributor list is incorrect (i.e., a deserving author has been omitted, or somebody who does not meet authorship criteria has been included)

The Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders came into the game against the Kentucky Wildcats as 15-point underdogs, but they didn't look like it, even after falling to the Wildcats 34-23 Saturday in Lexington. It was a wild game that got off to a rough start for the Blue Raiders. After the first quarter, it was 17-0, and at halftime, it was 24-10 with the Wildcats on top. However, the Blue Raiders had more yards gained on offense. A pick six off of Brent Stockstill is what ultimately changed the game. The Blue Raiders were down 31-10 at one point in the third quarter, but they rallied back and gave the Wildcats a run for their money.
"They kind of beat us at our own game," said Kentucky head coach Mark Scoops.
The Blues Raiders started the game really good for the first three plays, and then the Wildcats defensive back Mike Edwards picked off Brent Stockstill off after a high pass. The Blue Raiders came out in a number of odd formations to catch the Wildcats off guard. Chaton Mobley was running downhill early on the game. The running game was starting to pick up speed, but another early turnover set the Blue Raiders back again. Mike Edwards came up huge for the Wildcats again, as he forced a fumble and put his mark on the game early with a pick six to go along with a forced fumble.
The Wildcats got help from Benny Snell, their running back who is the second leading rusher in the Southeastern Conference. Snell showed up early with 12 carries for 78 yards in the first quarter, but he wasn't the only back featured in this game. The Blue Raiders' Chaton Mobley had himself a game as well and steadily moved the ball forward on a consistent basis. Mobley gave the Blue Raiders the confidence they needed after being down 17-0 after the first. Even with the score the way it was early, the team knew they could still compete in the game.
The Blue Raiders defense finally showed up with a big sack by Khalil Brooks to hold the Wildcats to a field goal. Stockstill threw a swing pass to Zack Dobson on the ensuing drive and broke free for 25 yards up the sideline near Kentucky territory. Stockstill and Mobley led the Blue Raiders on their fifth possession down the field to a touchdown. Stockstill connected to Mobley with a short pass on fourth down, and the lead was cut to 10.
Just when the Blue Raiders cut the lead to 10, the Wildcats took it right down the field quickly, and Kentucky quarterback Terry Wilson connected on an 11-yard dart for a touchdown that went through the hands of Blue Raider defender Wesley Bush.
The Blue Raider offense continued to move the ball despite the Wildcat score. The screen passes were beginning to click for MTSU, and Ty Lee took another screen pass for a 25-yard game. However, the offense stalled out after Stockstill took a sack and squandered a scoring opportunity.
The Blue Raiders would not go away, adding another score to bring the deficit back to 14. The Blue Raiders slowly chipped away at the Wildcat lead and cut even closer at the start of the fourth quarter. Blue Raider wide receiver Patrick Smith caught another screen pass thrown from Stockstill for a touchdown and made it a one-possession game again with 13 minutes left.
The Blue Raiders defense made a huge stop on fourth down when Wilson tried a quarterback sneak on fourth down. MTSU's offense had the opportunity to drive down the field and tie the game potentially, but the Blue Raiders went for it on fourth down too and failed to convert. That spotted the Wildcats three more points on the following possession to make it 34-23.
The Blue Raiders' final push for the game stalled after Stockstill was sacked yet again on fourth down with 20 seconds left. MTSU gained more total yards, more first downs and held the ball six more minutes than the Wildcats did for the game. The two early first quarter turnovers are what caused the Blue Raiders to go down in a hard-fought game.
Senior Day is next week, and head coach Rick Stockstill said he hopes every person in Murfreesboro comes out to support the seniors. The Blue Raiders will take on a good University of Alabama at Birmingham squad, who are 7-0 in conference play and 9-1 overall. Senior Day will be Saturday against the UAB Blazers at 3 p.m.

Q: How to extract data from database and use in jsp page I'm working on jsp,servlet code . I have LESSON table in my db too which has lesson_id , lesson_name and etc.
Now I want to use "a" tag in my jsp page which link to a servlet page but each tag used in jsp should has a specific lesson_id which has token from my database.
for example data structure has a special id. so if i want to use many "a" tag in my jsp for each lesson that has a specific id, how can i do this?

A: Yes, You can use JSTL & EL. For database access use JSTL SQL Tag library.
JSP: (sample code:)
<%@ taglib prefix="sql" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/sql"%>
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"%>

<sql:setDataSource var="webappDataSource"
    driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test"
    user="root" password="root" />

<sql:query dataSource="${webappDataSource}"
    sql="select lesson_id, lesson_name from lessons" var="result" />

    <c:forEach var="row" items="${result.rows}">

            ${row.lesson_id}
            ${row.lesson_name}

                  click here

    </c:forEach>

Note: It's better to move the database code in the Servlet. Here is an example

Woman charged with killing her father, injuring mother in Upper Arlington shooting
Posted: Nov 1, 2019 / 09:13 AM EDT / Updated: Nov 1, 2019 / 07:13 PM EDT
UPPER ARLINGTON, OH (WCMH) — Police say a woman in Upper Arlington killed her father and injured her mother in a shooting, Thursday night.
According to the Upper Arlington Police Division, at about 6:30 p.m., officers were called to the 3300 block of Colchester Road on the report of a shooting.
When officers arrived on scene, they found James Roth, 61, and his wife Elizabeth Roth, 60, both shot multiple times.
James Roth would later be pronounced dead at the hospital.
Elizabeth Roth was taken to an area hospital and is currently listed in stable condition.
Witnesses told the police the couple had been shot by their daughter, Kristin Roth, 31.
Police later arrested Kristin Roth at her residence in the 4600 block of Merrifield Place.
The shooting happened as trick or treating was going on. Neighbors and police rushed to the neighborhood and told kids and their families to stay away.
"They started just swarming the street and it was all lit up," said neighbor Shelby Cozad.
Kristin Roth was taken to the Franklin County jail and charged with aggravated murder, and felonious assault.

We here at 7Days love Khmer440, the one stop shop for jaded Riverside barflies, caption contests for foreign schemers getting busted by the 5-0 and winding up on the front page of Koh Santepheap, and Agony Aunts counselling young turks against the allures of marrying the sultry temptress they met the night before out the front of the Black Cat.
Of course, nothing on the site's forums compares to those moments where long-simmering tension between two expats escalates into bald aggression, recorded for posterity and hilarity. With that in mind, we were amused last week to see reports of a violent spat between the voluminous NedK and his adversary connecticuter up at Street 110's Garage Bar.
"So, let me get this straight, you want me to 'admit my role' in getting punched by you, in the middle of a conversation, out of nowhere?" thundered NedK.
And to that vocal minority, please: don't ever change.

About Game Empire
Get your copy of the new D&D book: Tales from the Yawning Portal locked down now at a reduced price!
We are getting Tales from the Yawning Portal in this Friday as we are a premiere store and get it on the pre-release date of 3/24!! As an added bonus if you call in or come into the store and pre-pay for your copy we are giving a 10% discount until we close Thursday (3/23 at 11pm)!!
The Tales from the Yawning Portal adventure compilation was recently announced by Wizards of the Coast as the next adventure release for Dungeons & Dragons. This new book takes a novel format for D&D 5e adventures. Instead of one level spanning adventure, it is a series of dungeon crawls taken from every edition of D&D's past. Each adventure is a separate story which can be played in order or they can be used to fill in between your other D&D Adventurers League adventures.
When the shadows grow long in Waterdeep and the fireplace in the taproom of the Yawning Portal dims to a deep crimson glow, adventurers from across the Forgotten Realms, and even from other worlds, spin tales and spread rumors of dark dungeons and lost treasures. Some of the yarns overheard by Durnan, the barkeep of the Yawning Portal, are inspired by places and events in far-flung lands from across the D&D multiverse, and these tales have been collected into a single volume.
Within this tome are seven of the most compelling dungeons from the 40+ year history of Dungeons & Dragons. Some are classics that have hosted an untold number of adventurers, while others are some of the most popular adventures ever printed.
The seeds of these stories now rest in your hands. D&D's most storied dungeons are now part of your modern repertoire of adventures. Enjoy, and remember to keep a few spare character sheets handy.
For use with the fifth edition Player's Handbook, Monster Manual, and Dungeon Master's Guide, this book provides fans with adventures, magic items and deadly monsters, all of which have been updated to the fifth edition rules. Explore seven deadly dungeons in this adventure supplement for the world's greatest roleplaying game.
Tales from the Yawning Portal includes the following adventures:
Dead in Thay
Forge of Fury
Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan
Tomb of Horrors
White Plume Mountain
D&D Adventurers League Play
Since this season is already a series of shorter adventures (compared to the long campaigns of previous seasons), the D&D Adventurers League will release modules that tie into several of the Tales from the Yawning Portal adventures. The six adventures are directly tied to an adventure as a sequel, a prequel, or expand on some aspect of it. In addition, three of the six adventures are Epic adventures and are paired with one of the three other adventures.

Want a way to play that offers a level playing field and lets you check out new cards at the same time? Then a limited format like booster draft may be for you. Unlike constructed formats, where you arrive with a carefully constructed deck ready to play, limited formats allow you to build a deck from new cards as part of the game.
At the start of booster draft, each player opens a booster pack and picks a single card. (Don't show the other players what you pick!) Then everyone passes the rest of their pack to player on their left, each player then picks a card from the pack they just received before passing again. This process continues until all the cards in those packs have been drafted. Then each player opens a second pack, but this time, you pass the pack to your right. After all those cards are drafted, you do the same with the third pack, passing to the left again.

UAE Teacher License Preparation about helping teachers in the UAE prepare for and successfully pass the Teacher Licensing System UAE (TLS UAE) examination. As a specialized Teacher License Exam preparation and training service, our aim is to help each and every educationist successfully obtain their UAE Teacher License. The idea is to give teachers a complete rehearsal of the test by simulating the exact test experience that all candidates applying for the license will expect to have on the day of the test. Furthermore, we provide custom-designed assessments that fit the needs of individual candidates and help them overcome their weak areas while preparing for their big test.


The fight for equality did not end with the Supreme Court's marriage equality ruling in June 2015. It is a relatively unknown fact that the gay rights aspect of the civil rights movement started at the hands of a few proud and courageous transgendered individuals in what became known as the Stonewall Riots in New York City. Without these passionate activists, namely Marsha P. Johnson and Silvia Rivera, the freedom to marry movement would not have been accomplished with the vigor it had been nor would LGBTQ individuals enjoy the many rights they do today. Simply, those individuals who put marriage equality on the map have had to accept compromise in the place of representation while allied activists concentrated their efforts elsewhere. Rather than focuses on policies that included protections for all individuals that label themselves as LGBTQ, the conversation has been dominated by the fight to recognize marriage equality. Transgender persons should not have to wait on the sidelines while others reap the rewards of our collective efforts.
As we began our first year as co-presidents of OUTLaw, our main focus was to correct that error. With The John Marshall Law School recently being named one of only eight LGBT friendly law schools by the ABA, OUTLaw is committed to promote an atmosphere of inclusiveness and friendliness of all individuals through our mission statement. Our mission is to bring together students within both the JMLS student body and the greater Chicago area in the bounds of fellowship, scholarship, and community. We hope to strengthen those students within our group to achieve a higher level of success academically and personally while ensuring that they are treated fairly as an LGBTQ student. In the prior years, we have hosted events that followed the road to the marriage decision and also specific instances of discrimination against homosexual professionals in the workplace. However, this year we knew that we need to have more of a focus on our Transgender and Queer individuals to truly be an inclusive group. Installing all gender restroom signs was an obvious agenda that will no doubt help us in achieving this continued objective. All gender restrooms, while perhaps unimportant to most, is a little gesture that shows the big commitment JMLS has to its LBGTQ students.
Before the 2014-2015 school year began we met with Troy Riddle, who is the Director of Diversity Affairs and Outreach. We expressed our desire to install all gender restroom signs in order to show our commitment to diversity within the John Marshall Law School. Immediately, Troy was excited to assist us in achieving our goal and directed us to Dean Niedwiecki. Having realized the importance of having all gender restroom signs, Dean Niedwiecki entrusted us to find restroom signs while he recruited support and discussed the suggested changes with the proper individuals at The John Marshall Law School. It was later determined that the school was willing to modify four handicap restrooms to both handicap and all gender restrooms.
After locating several businesses that manufacture signage, we discovered MyDoorSigns.com. The company was particularly appealing to us because MyDoorSigns.com shares OUTLaw's belief of inclusiveness and was offering gender-neutral signs to college campuses at no charge. We contacted the company and our request for signage was happily granted. OUTLaw then coordinated with the property manager of The John Marshall Law School to install the all gender restroom signs in the previously approved locations; one restroom in 19 W. Jackson, one in 315 S. Plymouth, and two in 304 S. State.
The fight for a genderless restroom, luckily and unsurprisingly, was no fight at all. The idea was welcomed with open arms and excited with deliberate speed from the faculty. However, this was not consistent amongst all the student body. Questions of 'why' and 'who really cares' could be heard from some, but this only goes to the point of its need; just because some students do not see a need does not mean the need does not exist. Though this project may have helped many at our school, or as little as one individual, its continued presence at The John Marshall law School will help the campus be more inclusive for generations to come.

Do not learn what other countries do to follow their gods.
Don't be scared about signs in the sky that scare other people.
Everything they do is empty and doesn't work and doesn't make you happy.
They find a strong tree and cut it down and make it into a statue. They cover it with silver and gold and bow down to it.
But it can't walk or talk or do any good thing for them.
There is none like You, O Lord. You are great and very strong. Who won't be scared of You, O King over all the nations? There is no one like You.
You are the true God and the living God and the King who will always be.
When you are mad it shakes the whole world. The nations can't stand it when you are upset.
The gods that did not make the heavens and the earth, they will fade away into nothing.
and stretched out all the stars across the universe with His knowing.
When he says it, the waters fill the heavens and fall to water the ground.
When He says it, the lightning thunders and crashes across the sky.
When He says it, the winds come out of His treasure house and swirls around all over the world.
but the God of Jacob is not like them.
The Lord of all the armies of angels of heaven is His name.
I am so sad, this hurts My heart so much because My house is ruined and My children have left Me.
Their shepherds left Me and became stupid because they didn't look for Me. So it won't be good for them and their sheep wander away from them.
O Lord, I know that man can't lead the right way, but You lead him in the right steps.
Make me go the right way, O Lord; Don't be angry with me and make me empty.

Dell XPS 15 9570 BIOS Update
Dell XPS 15 9570 BIOS Update Windows 10 – The Dell XPS 15 9570 BIOS Update is a small program stored in flash memory on the motherboard. Because the BIOS is an essential component of system startup, errors or viruses in the BIOS can make a computer completely unusable by normal means. If this happens, you must reinstall your BIOS. Here, we offer the Dell XPS 15 9570 BIOS Update by an appropriate installation guide. It is quite simple to download the Dell XPS 15 9570 BIOS, just simply click the "Download Link" below.
Dell XPS 15 9570 BIOS Update Windows 10
The Dell XPS 15 9570 is equipped with a Wi-Fi module from Killer Networks (wireless n / a / ac 1535, 2×2). As a result, the notebook reached a maximum transfer rate of 675 Mbps (reception) and 551 Mbps (sending) in our Wi-Fi test (Linksys EA8500, at a distance of 1 m). This result is lower than that of the XPS 2017 with the same Wi-Fi module, which could be due to different factors or measurement uncertainties. The Dell XPS 15 9570 has a long list of security measures. You will find a good overview of the functions supported in the BIOS, from classic passwords of different levels up to TPM 2.0 and to Computrace. The XPS 15 also offers a fingerprint reader (touch, no scan) integrated into the Power button. You will find many accessories available at the end of the online configuration process. The range of colors ranges from external bags and input devices to adapters and docking stations. The latter can be very interesting because it lacks an Ethernet RJ45 connector, for example. The solution would be the appropriate Dell USB-C adapter, which adds HDMI, VGA, Ethernet and USB 3.0 ports. The available Thunderbolt TB16 240W dock is also of exceptional quality. This docking station offers a variety of additional ports, but it also supports device power, which means that you only need one cable connected to the device. The price of $ 240 seems quite appropriate for this accessory. While you have a Phillips or Torx T5 screwdriver, you will have no problem opening the XPS 15. Dell has plastic tabs to attach the aluminum plate to the base unit. Just keep in mind that there are two other screws hidden under the flap with type information. After removing the aluminum cover, users have full access to the main components, such as the hard disk, SSD, RAM, battery, Wi-Fi module and, of course, both fans and heatpipes. It is relatively easy to exchange RAM or SSD, for example. The 57 Wh version has a smaller battery, but offers space for a 2.5-inch SATA storage device.
The keyboard is exactly the same as the predecessor. The experience of writing, sound and movement are always pleasant, the individual keys are well adjusted and respond well even when you touch them on the edges. Dell also included a two-level keyboard backlight with PWM (pulse width) modulation at a frequency of 64 Hz and a lower brightness level. The 2017 model also had PWM here. This will not be a problem for most users, but sensitive people may notice it. The flicker is easily seen in a slow motion recording, which we did in our 2017 review: Dell XPS 15 2017 7300HQ. The keyboard of the XPS 13 is approximately 5 mm narrower than that of our test unit. Dell has not made any changes to the touchpad either. We had no problem using it to navigate during our test. The sliding is easy and comfortable on the surface of the glass and the mechanical areas of the ClickPad also work very well. You do not have to apply too much pressure to click, but the clicks are not too lax either. The touch panel responds with a muffled sound and a well adjusted tactile response. The Dell XPS 15 has two speakers built into the front of the unit, with sound coming from the openings along the front edge. The sound produced is balanced, clear and strong enough (although not loud enough for a party). The speakers can be used to listen to music. Apple MacBook Pro 15, which is currently the best asset that laptops can offer in terms of sound quality, offers better results when processing low frequencies that play an important role in "full" sound. Apart from this, both laptops have very similar sound characteristics.

The ICB Golden Princess Sparkle Bible comes with a dazzling cover with shimmering design and lots of sparkling glitter, all highlighting the beloved princess theme. You and your little princess will love the thirty-two pages of full color insert that dive deeper into some of the most beloved Bible stories.
I admit that I'm still somewhat of a novice when it comes to God's Word. I appreciate when there are resources, footnotes, tips and hints contained within a Bible that help open my eyes and discover the messages. The ICB Prayer Bible is an amazing manual outfitted for children, but I think it's perfect for an adult as well.
The cover of the Bible is very pretty, with a yellow background and some sparkle. There's a lot of information contained within the Bible to help readers with their walk with God. Colored pictures throughout the Bible illustrate some of the stories.
One person will win an ICB Golden Princess Sparkle Bible.
I am not sure of the exact number but I probably have 5 or 6 Bibles.
I personally own one I recieved it from the church when I got baptized two years ago.
I'm a pastor's wife and have no clue how many Bibles are in our home!
I believe we own about 4 Bibles. However, I do not have a kid friendly version like this, it would be perfect for my daughter!
I probably have 5 or 6 Bibles, including some small children's Bibles that my son got at church. I received one Bible with my name engraved on the cover from the church when I was baptised. I have 2 teaching Bibles and one is nicer than the other because it has fold out maps and photos, and footnotes that decipher words, etc. I have mostly King James version Bibles, but have a couple of other more plain language versions, but rarely use those. I also have a large family Bible that my husband's grandmother gave us when we were married.
I own one bible from my childhood to now. I have bible story books for the grandchildren.
I have one, my husband has one, and we have two old family Bibles.
I own two Bibles. One I received from my mom as a child and other I bought as an adult.
I have1 that I got when I was in high school 37 years ago.
Sadly, 0. No bibles in our home yet!
Oh boy. We have something like 9 bibles in our house. I think our kids would love this one though.
I think we own two, not including the kids bible story books.
We have 4 or 5 Bibles in the house.
We have one in our room. Our kids have several kids bibles though.
I only own one bible- I have had that book ever since I was little! It is veeeery old!
i have three Bibles right now. I don't like to get rid of Bibles. I keep them forever and ever.
I have about 4 of my own bibles.
I own at least three bibles.
I don't have a bible in the house, this would get me reading!
I have owned one bible since I was ten. My uncle bought one each for me and my sister and had our names printed on them. I have had it 21 years now. I also inherited a family bible. It has our family tree in it. It is very old and stays put up. But the one with my name on it needs to be retired.
I do not have a single Bible in my house and have never been given one.
I have two, I had more but I don't know where they went.
I have 3, thank you.

Mar 18 2015 : The Times of India (Delhi)
SC scraps OBC quota for Jats, dubs govt move `retrograde'
Amit Choudhary
The Supreme Court on Tuesday struck down the Centre's controversial decision to grant reservation to the Jat community in jobs and educational institutions while terming it a reflection of "negative" and "retrograde" governance. The UPA government's decision to grant OBC status to the Jat community on the eve of the 2014 general elections had drawn strong reactions from other backward class communities which viewed the move as vote bank politics. The NDA government later defended the UPA's decision in the Supreme Court.
"We cannot agree with the view taken by the government that Jats in the nine states in question are a backward community so as to be entitled to inclusion in the central lists of other backward classes," the SC said. The view taken by the National Commission for Backward Classes (NCBC) to the contrary is adequately supported by good and acceptable reasons which furnished a sound and reasonable basis for further consequential action on the part of the Union government," said Justice Gogoi, who authored the judgment for the bench, which also included Justice Rohinton F Nariman.
NCBC had in its report advised the government against grant of OBC status to Jats, saying the community was not socially and educationally backward to be entitled to a share in 27% OBC quota in jobs and admission to educational institutions. It had also said that the community was adequately represented in armed forces, government services and educational institutions.
On March 4 last year, the Centre had granted OBC status to Jats of Bihar, Gujarat, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, MP, Delhi, UP and Uttarakhand besides the districts of Bharatpur and Dholpur in Rajasthan. It had rejected the NCBC's suggestions, saying it "did not adequately take into account the ground realities".
The court also rejected the Centre's stand justifying reservation on the ground that Jats were granted OBC status by many states 10 years ago.It pulled up the government for reopening the issue on the basis of outdated and antiquated data a decade later during which the country had progressed.

Q: How to specify multipart HTML code so it's downloaded with 1 GET request I want to render a web page using content type Multipart, but my sniffer logs always show multiple GET requests for the images on the web page.
Here is my test code:
<!DOCTYPE html>

    <title>multipart/form-data</title>

When I do a Refresh on this web page, I expect to see a single GET request, but i see multiple GET requests (one for the main page and one for ea image file).

A: You won't be able to do this in HTML. Content-Type: multipart/... is an HTTP header, whereas the HTML tag <meta http-equiv="content-type"> supports very limited values as defined here: http://www.w3.org/TR/html-markup/meta.http-equiv.content-type.html#meta.http-equiv.content-type

A specially formatted string providing a character encoding name. Value: The
  following parts, in exactly the following order:

*

*The literal string "text/html;".

*Optionally, one or more space characters.

*The literal string "charset=".

*One of the following:

*

*For documents in the HTML syntax: A character encoding name.

*For documents in the XML syntax: Any case-insensitive match for the string "UTF-8".

In other words, since this is an HTML document, the only allowed content-type is "text/html".
You want to specify "multipart/mixed" in the HTTP headers on the server side (e.g. using PHP header() or similar). But even then, it looks like the only browsers that support it are/were Firefox/Netscape; see How to download multiple files with one HTTP request?

CofC Slay Dragons 73-61 In CAA Opener
by Jeff Walker
Riller Scores 24 Pts, Cougs Advance To Play Northeastern
By: Jeff Walker, Sports Writer
After finishing the regular season 23-8 and 12-6 in the Colonial Athletic Association, the College of Charleston men's basketball team earned the three seed in the tournament along with a first round bye. With eight days to prepare for CAA Tournament held for a final time at the North Charleston Coliseum (part of a three year deal), the Cougars were in rare form as they slayed the Dragons of Drexel University 73-61 on Sunday night, advancing to take on second seeded Northeastern, in a rematch of what was the title game last season.
CofC Junior guard Grant Riller lead all scorers making good on 10 of 16 from the floor, adding four from the free throw line for 24 points. Riller had help from senior power forward Jarrell Brantley who pumped in 16 points. Charleston got 24 points from the bench with Sam Miller accounting for half of that total, including two from long range. Brantley and Miller would haul in a team best seven rebounds apiece.
A transfer player who sat out almost half the season, Miller scored in double figures for just the fourth time in a Cougar uniform. CofC Head Coach Earl Grant said Miller's talent is justified. "Sam played well. He got eligible in December. He is one of the harder guys to guard in practice, because of his size and skill level. He definitely stepped up tonight and gave us a great lift off the bench."
The Dragons tripped the scoreboard first, before the Cougars ran off 14 unanswered. When Alihan Demir made one from the foul line, the Cougars were up 14-3 after seven minutes of play. It was all CofC moving forward as Charleston went up 20-8 midway thru the period. Shooting just 32 percent from the floor in the first 20 minutes of action, Drexel trailed at the half 38-24.
The team from Philadelphia recharged their batteries during the break and came out with renewed energy. Drexel hit 6 of 7 from the floor out of the gate, cutting the Charleston lead to seven points on several occasions. After Miller made his second from range and Riller added a deuce, CofC was us 57-45 with just over 10 minutes remaining in the contest.
A dunk by Drexel's James Butler would bring the Cougar lead to just seven (65-58) for one final time with 2:13 showing on the clock. But the Cougars would not be denied with Riller capping off the night with a dunk and two from the foul line, providing the Cougars with a 12 point margin of victory. With the win the Cougars improve to 24-8 on the year.
Charleston played only one game in their final week of the season allowing for more time to practice and get healthy heading into the tournament. Coach Grant said his players stepped up. "It was just our second game in 14 days. We came out with great intensity, defended really hard and rebounded the ball really well. I'm proud of their effort. We found a way to win the game. That's what you are trying to do this time of year, advance."
Despite the loss Drexel got solid scoring from four of their starters. Butler lead the way making 7 of 10 for 14 points. Camren Wynter finished with 12 points, with Matey Juric and Demir adding 11 and 10 points respectively. The Dragons end their season with an overall 13-19 record.
Although Charleston was up by 14 points at intermission Riller didn't expect Drexel to lay down in the second half. "It was the flow of the game. Everybody can make a run. They (Drexel) punched us in the mouth. We did a good job of getting off the mat." Riller added miscues didn't help. "We didn't take care of the ball too well, me personally. But, we were able to push through it and come out with the win in the end."
Charleston will face second-seeded Northeastern (21-10) at 8:30 p.m. (ET) Monday night. NU advanced with an 80-59 win over UNC Wilmington. The CofC vs. NU contest will be a rematch of last year's overtime championship game. Monday's game will be televised nationally on CBS Sports Network.

From Brownie camera when I was a kid to a nice Canno Rebel, it has been a wonderful experience. My dad was a big fan of 8 mm film during my childhood and teen years and, after his death, I was fortunate enough to obtain all those old reels and bring them back (from Atlanta) to Dallas. I had the film transferred to video cassettes and then edited and placed edits on video cassettes to send to people from my childhood. I thought it was very important for them to have a little piece of video history of those years back in the 1950s and 1960s. It meant a lot to me to be able to provide a family with some video of a son/brother who had been killed.
My most memorable photography event was during my employment as a newspaper reporter. Assigned to me was a Yashica Twin Lens Reflex camera and strobe. I was asked to cover Miss LaPorte County as she shopped at a local mall. She was a contender for the Miss Indiana crown. It would have been between 1968 and 1972.
When I arrived at the mall with my camera set up, a summer intern reporter from our competitive paper in Michigan City was there. He had a large silver case and was preparing his Hassalblad camera. He opened his camera case and I drooled at the equipment - long lenses, filters, the best money could buy. Related to the famous Honeywell family, he insulted my Yashica and me and I retorted, "As Ansel Adams said, it isn't the equipment, it's the person using it!" I was angry. I said, "I'll just take a mirror shot of her."
I'd already been told by the professional staff photographers at the newspaper that mirror shots were horrible to do because one would typically get flash into the mirror. On this day of shooting, I figured I could take the shot (plus others) and, when it turned out with flash in the mirror and, therefore, not usable, I'd just tell this other reporter next time I saw him that the paper was full that day - no room for my photo. I couldn't lose!
So, I placed the young woman in front of a three-way mirror and took a couple of photos. This was back in the film day, so I never knew how anything turned out until the film was developed (I didn't carry a Poloroid with me, as some photographers did).
I went back to the paper and turned in my camera equipment and the film (the staff photographers would develop the film). I told our Managing Editor what had happened.
To my amazement, the next day the front page of the paper carried a large photo of my mirror shot. I had been SO LUCKY - no flash. Next thing I heard - the intern had gone home back east somewhere. That shot was just plain luck!
Below is a photo of my old Ricohflex Twin Lens Reflex. I preferred having my own camera instead of checking out the Yashica from the newspaper. Still have this Ricohflex!
Since then I've done some professional photography and a lot of photos of family and personal events. I love shooting architecture and flowers and am including a few of those photos here.
Sometimes I shoot black and white and did a shot a few years ago of a bird in a tree with a cat nearby!
Cat and bird - appears that the cat knows there is a bird nearby, but not sure where it is!
Bird atop a fountain on the deck at a home.
Beautiful historic home in Ennis, TX.
Fasincated by this one - in front of house on south side of Marvin Ave. in Waxahachie, headed east just before reaching Ennis St.
The reason this was so important - a little girl who is wheelchair-bound lived there and neighbors rushed in to make sure she would be safe. As it turned out, she was at school, but the courage of neighbors should be commended. Volunteer Fire Department's firemen showed up and they took care of the fire.
Will add later, if i can find the CD - young ladies in antique dresses - gorgeous!
And photo of the old Ricohflex Twin Lens Rflex camera I used decades ago when I was a newspaper reporter.

Milwaukee Volunteer Tackles the Logistics of Disasters on Month-Long Deployment to Missouri
Posted on February 16, 2016 by American Red Cross - Wisconsin
By Max Seigle, American Red Cross Public Affairs Volunteer
It's a role you don't always see in the headlines when it comes to American Red Cross disaster help. But if you ask volunteer, Phyllis Wiggins, she'll tell you Logistics is vital to ensure clients get help.
Red Cross volunteers, Phyllis Wiggins and Megan Besset, on deployment in St. Louis, MO.
"We get you the people, places and things you need to be successful on the operation," Wiggins said in a recent interview with Red Cross Public Affairs.
Wiggins, of Milwaukee, spent a month helping with flood disaster relief in the St. Louis area. She left in late December and served as a Logistics Manager at the Red Cross headquarters in the city.
"If you need a 26-foot truck to load things around, Logistics gets that for you," Wiggins said.
Requests also included more basic things, like food, bleach, gloves and comfort items for children staying at Red Cross shelters.
"We actually had to go out and make a run for coloring books and crayons," she said.
Wiggins said Logistics plays a big role in securing locations for shelters and assistance centers during disaster relief. She explained the Red Cross works with community partners to find places, like schools, churches and office buildings. The Red Cross also had its own technology team to equip those facilities. On her deployment to St. Louis, Wiggins said churches, especially, rose to the occasion to offer space. She was also amazed with additional support from corporate donors.
"I've been on some operations where people were just begging for help – just trying to dig up that big truck stuff. Here, it was just never an issue," Wiggins said.
Wiggins recalled one day where a fellow Wisconsin Red Cross volunteer, Megan Besset, was on the phone working to get meals for the mission. What came next was a major delivery, and all of it donated.
"All of a sudden we had food from Popeyes, White Castle, pizza, Italian…" she said.
Wiggins worked about eight to 11 hours a day on her deployment. She was even on the ground New Year's Eve and Day.
"If you're doing good as the year rolls over, then the year is going to be good for you," Wiggins said.
It's clearly "Mission First" for Wiggins. And serving behind the scenes in Logistics is a role she's happy to take on with a humble nature.
"It's more important that people get help, that they feel safe, that they feel take care of," Wiggins said.
"That is much more important than getting a slap on the back or a Thank You."
Thank you Phyllis for proudly representing the American Red Cross in Missouri.
This month, the American Red Cross has many volunteer opportunities, including becoming a disaster responder, supporting military troops, and many more. Red Cross volunteers are united by their service and the feeling that in changing others' lives, their lives are also changed.

Q: TensorFlow: Is there a way to convert a list with None type to a Tensor? For my application, I am trying to convert a list with [None, 1, 1, 64] to a tensor using tf.convert_to_tensor([None, 1, 1, 64]), but this gives me the error:
TypeError: Failed to convert object of type <type 'list'> to Tensor. Contents: [None, 1, 1, 64]. Consider casting elements to a supported type.
Ideally, I want None to be the first dimension because it represents the batch_size. Currently, the only way I could avoid this error is to explicitly give the batch_size to the operation, but I am hoping there is a cleaner way to convert such a list to a tensor.

A: Use tf.convert_to_tensor([-1, 1, 1, 64]) instead of None, since you are already specifying 3 out of 4 dimensions, this should be fine.

A: No, because None and 64 have different types, and all tensors are typed: You can't have elements of different types in one tensor.
The closest thing you could do is nan:
tf.convert_to_tensor([np.nan, 1, 1, 64])

although I can't imagine why you'd want that.
You can however create a TensorShape:
tf.TensorShape([None, 1, 1, 64])

Red Suns Could Light The Way to Alien Life
If We're Ever Going to Find Aliens, It'll Be Because They Glow in the Dark
Red suns could light the way to alien life.
By David Grossman
Goddard Space Flight Center/S. Wiessinger
UV radiation flares from red dwarfs could help uncover hidden biospheres throughout the galaxy by triggering a protective reaction from any lifeforms on exoplanets known as biofluorescence.
This is a new way to search for life in the universe, scientists say.
An energy source that astronomers have long regarded as destructive could, in fact, help discover alien life. Powerful ultraviolet radiation flares from red dwarfs could help uncover hidden biospheres throughout the galaxy by triggering a protective reaction from any lifeforms on exoplanets known as biofluorescence.
"This is a completely novel way to search for life in the universe. Just imagine an alien world glowing softly in a powerful telescope," said lead author Jack O'Malley-James, a researcher at Cornell's Carl Sagan Institute, in a press statement.
"On Earth, there are some undersea coral that use biofluorescence to render the sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation into harmless visible wavelengths, creating a beautiful radiance," said co-author Lisa Kaltenegger, associate professor of astronomy and director of the Carl Sagan Institute. "Maybe such life forms can exist on other worlds too, leaving us a telltale sign to spot them."
At least some exoplanets, planets outside the solar system, exist within the "habitability range" with their own stars. In early August 2019, scientists announced the discovery of just such a planet, which they deemed a "hot Earth." These planets exist within the same Goldilocks zone that Earth does—just far enough from their star to make it at least possible for life as humans understand it to form.
Several of these Goldilocks planets, scientists further speculate, will have M-type stars, or red dwarfs. Red dwarfs are small and dim, which makes them hard for scientists to track, but they're the most common type of star in the universe. Red dwarfs are so small, some only have 10 percent the mass of Earth's sun and emit 0.01 percent as much energy.
They also have a tendency to flare up, due to their high levels of magnetic activity. These ultraviolet flares, scientists suspect, shower planets in biofluorescence. And that biofluorescence might paint planets in beautiful colors.

"These biotic kinds of exoplanets are very good targets in our search for exoplanets, and these luminescent wonders are among our best bets for finding life on exoplanets," O'Malley-James said.
There are many tempting targets, like Proxima b, which scientists have previously believed uninhabitable because of its being constantly being bombarded with radiation. But according to O'Malley-James and Kaltenegger, that radiation could just make any potential life dowsed in colors. But they'll have to wait for technology to catch up with their idea. They're predicting it will be possible to test the concept within 10 to 20 years.
"It is a great target for the next generation of big telescopes, which can catch enough light from small planets to analyze it for signs of life, like the Extremely Large Telescope in Chile," Kaltenegger said.

Interview with Tom Veitch on William S. Burroughs
Reports from the Bibliographic Bunker
Jed Birmingham on William S. Burroughs Collecting
Let's start with Literary Days. Can you describe that book?
Literary Days is a 25-page 8.5×11 pamphlet edited by Ted Berrigan from two longer works — a novel called WHATS that I wrote in 1963 and a novel called Malgmo's End that Ted and I wrote together. We wrote alternate chapters of Malgmo's End, and what he did was put some of my chapters into Literary Days. Joe Brainard did the cover of Literary Days and also one or two illustrations, depending on which edition you find. As for WHATS, that was what I called a "psychic novel", meaning it had a day-to-day psychological continuity, although the chapters featured different characters and settings. It was much like a series of dreams in that respect.
How did the book come to be published by Ted Berrigan and C Press?
For some reason, Ted liked my writing. The first thing he saw by me was a first-person novel called The Transfigured, which Lorenz Gude showed him in late 1961 or early 1962. He loved it, and we immediately became friends. In fact, I was welcomed into the "Tulsa circle", so to speak, which at that time was headquartered in Ted's apartment near Columbia University.
By the time Ted started C Magazine, I was living in Vermont, and he wrote me saying I ought to come back to New York and join the fun. I did, and we immediately began Malgmo's End. After he had published C Magazine for a while he wanted to do chapbooks and pamphlets, and so he put together Literary Days, which was the first C Press publication as I recall.
What did C Press mean to you as a young writer? How did C, a journal of poetry, relate to the other mimeos of the time, like Elephant, Fuck You or Lines?
It is hard to say. I remember those times as mostly being about freedom and having fun. As Lorenz Gude (who was the New York Poets' unofficial photographer) has said, "you could be walking home at four in the morning having had an experience that at seven o'clock in the evening you had no idea you were going to have, and that happened regularly." For Ted poetry was very much a social thing, a literal meeting of minds and hearts. For Ed Sanders it was a revolutionary thing, sticking it to the establishment, and so forth. Aram Saroyan came along later, with Lines. He moved down from Cambridge, as I recall. Lines was about the poetry itself. One could say a lot more about those days, of course, and people have. As young men, we were really trying to find out who we were and what was our mission in life. Ted knew what his mission was, and so he became a mentor to us.
Somehow William Burroughs got a copy of Literary Days. Were the two of you corresponding? Burroughs was corresponding with Ted Berrigan by 1963-1964. How did Burroughs get in the pages of C, a journal of poetry?
Ted put together a mailing list and sent out lots and lots of copies of C, free of charge. He probably got Burroughs' address from Ginsberg, or maybe from Bob Wilson (Phoenix Bookshop). Burroughs loved to get stuff like that in the mail. He would read it thoroughly and get into correspondence with the people who sent him these mags and books. Apparently when he read Literary Days, something about it turned him on, for he immediately did a cut-up / intersection piece, combining it with his own work, and send that to Ted, who published it in C Magazine 9.
Can you briefly describe "Intersection Shifts and Scanning from Literary Days by Tom Veitch?"
Better than describe it, I can include it with this Q&A, because Ron Padgett just sent me a copy of it! [You can read "Intersection Shifts and Scanning from Literary Days by Tom Veitch" here. — Ed.]
What was Burroughs' reputation in New York at the time?
Wow. Burroughs was a god, of course. We were reading the Olympia Press editions of his works — Naked Lunch, The Soft Machine, The Ticket that Exploded. These works were supposedly "banned in Boston," but Ted discovered you could order copies by mail direct from Paris at a bookseller's discount.
Reading The Soft Machine (which is a cut-up work) we got that Bill had discovered a key to breaking the mental patterns that imprison most of us. Beyond that, I had a kind of mystical experience when I first read Naked Lunch. That is to say, I read the whole book in one afternoon and evening, and when I went to bed the book kept going, all night long! So I guess the version I "read" — including the dreams — was about three times longer than the published version!
By late 1964, Burroughs was in New York City. Berrigan met Burroughs shortly thereafter. What was the reaction in literary circles to Burroughs' return to the US?
Well, as you probably know, Burroughs was greeted as the returning hero. He was a celebrated figure at that point, and as I recall Nova Express came out around that time and knocked everybody for a loop. We loved it.
When Burroughs returned to America, he was first staying at the Chelsea Hotel, and people would make a pilgrimage to meet him there. Ted and I went to the Chelsea together, to meet Bill for the first time. As we entered the hotel, we ran into Terry Southern, who was just leaving. Terry had a glazed transported look on his face, as if he had just had an audience with the Pope… or maybe Jesus himself.
What was your interaction with Burroughs at this time? I have heard there was a planned illustrated Naked Lunch.
My idea of illustrating Naked Lunch came much later, around 1971 or 72. My interaction with Burroughs at that time (1964-65) was as a kid who looked up to him and found him extremely fascinating. He was a teacher.
I hear you have a draft memoir of your experiences with Burroughs. What is the status of that project?
Yes, it is going to be a short book, about 150 pages. I have written quite a bit of it, but I won't do any more until I find somebody such as a publisher who will pay me some money to finish it.
Joe Brainard was working with Burroughs for an illustration for "St. Louis Return." Have you seen that illustration? Were there any other collaborations with Burroughs going on at the time?
I hadn't heard of the Brainard illustration. I asked Ron Padgett, and he hasn't heard of it either. We would love to know more.
I don't know what collaborations Burroughs was doing — he had so many friends, you know. I will tell you this, though, that in person he was a very strange man. I couldn't imagine sitting with him in a room and working together on a literary piece. He was also using various drugs at that time, although not like his old heroin days. One day we went to visit him and he started ranting about some LSD that some hipsters had given him the day before. "I felt like my whole body was on fire!" he said. "It was one of the worst experiences of my life!" Burroughs told us he had taken apomorphine to bring himself back from the experience.
Can you describe The Naked Express? Who would have run off the single sheet copy that I have?
The Naked Express was a collage I did for Lines magazine. It is a tribute to Bill Burroughs, but there is nothing by him in it, unless there's something I lifted. It wasn't a collaboration…. Which reminds me of another story. One time I was having dinner with Burroughs and he was going on about how "your words don't belong to you," and things like that. So I said to him, "You mean I could publish an edition of Naked Lunch and put my name on the cover." He snorted. "Of course! Barney Rosset would have a problem with it, but it would be o.k. with me!"
Did you attend Burroughs' St. Valentine's Day Reading? C 10 was issued that night. Was it distributed at the reading? Run off after the reading or in celebration of the reading?
No, I wasn't at that reading. I think I was not even in New York at that time, so I can't answer your question about C 10.
Same question for the other events of 1965. Whether you attended or not, what effect did Wynn Chamberlain's party on April 23, 1965 (Burroughs read with Mack Thomas), Lester Persky's 50 Beautiful People Party, Panna Grady's party for Burroughs have on your circle?
I was at the Wynn Chamberlain event, and it was great. Bill had all these props that he was arranging for his reading. He had a hand-rolled cigar that he meant to light up and smoke til it got that great cone of ash that he liked, but he didn't have anything with which to cut the tip off the cigar. So I whipped out a pocket knife I always carried and handed it over to him. He immediately made some dry crack about "you can always depend on a boy to carry a pocketknife," or something like that. Unfortunately the pocketknife was quite dull and made a mess of his cigar, alas. It made me feel bad to disappoint "Uncle Bill" as we sometimes called him.
Did you read Burroughs' interview with Conrad Knickerbocker in Paris Review 35? How did that change your impressions of Burroughs?
I didn't read it at the time, but I read it many years later. It gives one the feeling of deja vu, because it is a compilation of things he was saying in conversation in 1964 and 1965. It is almost as if he is playing back a series of tapes of dinner conversations, word for word.
How did Time come about? Ron Padgett told me that he recreated an identical copy of the original manuscript (he even tracked down the same model of Burroughs' typewriter) and the copies were offset from that.
Ted asked Burroughs for something he could publish as a chapbook, and Bill handed him the Time manuscript, which was already completed. Ron became the editor of the project, so I am sure Ron can tell you more about how it all came about than I can. But I do remember visiting Burroughs with Ron at Bill's Canal Street loft. Some of that is in my book, including the time Bill tried to hypnotize me with Moroccan music so that he could get me into bed… But I'm not at all gay, so it was no-go. He didn't seem to mind that I gave him the brush off. We just went on being friends, and when I entered a cloistered monastery a few months later, he used to send me postcards and Christmas cards.
Let me ask you something. What did you feel when you heard Burroughs' voice opening the sixth season of The Sopranos?

Sophia says:
I read Naked Lunch not that long ago. Believe it or not, one can still find an old copy in a small town library. The copy I found had not been cracked for years, it seems, as the binding was brittle, the pages yellowed and musty.
Your experience with him is intriguing.
johnny strike says:
what a terrific interview! a time trip full of gold nuggets.
I got a copy of Veitch's Literary Days a few weeks ago, so it's odd to run across a recent reference to what's a fairly obscure work.
I love, love, love this, E~. I haven't checked in much because adidam has not been of interest to me. I'm glad I did check in tonight, however, if only to find this.
It looks like my book is going to be published. My editor and I are still working out some kinks in the novel, but the publisher wants it after it has been refined.
The publisher said "this is a story that needs to be told". I'm both happy and humbled by that.
My very best to you and your family,


Jade Goody's mother, Jackiey Budden, amused viewers when she fired a question at Good Morning Britain presenter Charlotte Hawkins, asking her who she was.
Budden appeared on the ITV programme to discuss her famous daughter and her legacy on the 10th anniversary of her death from cervical cancer, alongside Goody's widower, Jack Tweed.
Budden asked Hawkins, who had been sitting at the newsdesk throughout the interview: "Who are you?"
Garraway, slightly shocked, said: "This is Charlotte Hawkins ... you must see Charlotte when you watch the show?"
Budden replied: "Yeah, but no-one introduced me. I've seen you, but no-one introduced me to you."
Garraway said it was "very rude" of them, and Shephard quipped: "We've all been reprimanded."
