The Maryland Opera Studio's production of Kurt Weill's Zaubernacht and Mahagonny Songspiel explores the perils of over-indulgence and addiction. Join us for a lively discussion as we examine our dependence on technology and the ways in which media over-saturates our daily lives. How does this affect the way we experience life, build relationships, process grief, and ultimately, avoid the reality of our emotions?
Maestro Craig Kier and Stage Director David Lefkowich are joined by Weill Scholar Stephen Hinton and UMD Professor Susan Moeller, who conducts studies of global media coverage of international news, among numerous other topics, in her role as the director of the UMD International Center for Media and the Public Agenda.

The striped ponyfish (Aurigequula fasciata) is a species of marine ray-finned fish, a ponyfish from the family Leiognathidae. It is native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean, from the Red Sea and the eastern coast of Africa to Fiji and Samoa, where it occurs in coastal marine and brackish waters.  It occurs at depths of from .  It is a predator upon smaller fishes, small crustaceans and polychaete worms.  This species grows to a length of  TL though most do not exceed  TL.  It is of minor importance to local commercial fisheries.  This species is the only known member of its genus.

Early in his career, he specialized in knee, shoulder, ankle, and trauma injuries. He has served as the team physician for the University of Nevada football and baseball teams for many years.
Dr. Gary Anderson, vascular health, board certified, and a member of the American Board of Lipidology. He has worked as a physician in nursing homes for over 35 years. In this video he discusses the problem of "polypharmacy," the problem of too many drugs being used in nursing homes, as a cause of dementia.
Dr. Peter Attia, is a former McKinsey & Company consultant, surgeon, engineer, calculus teacher and an author of numerous medical and research papers.
Dr. Tara Dall, member of the American Board of Lipidology.
Dr. Malcolm D. Bacchus, a board certified neurologist.
Dr. Greenwald is the moderator of the panel discussion, so we don't really hear much from him regarding his views on the problems with insulin and the high carbohydrate diet, or coconut oil, in regards to Alzheimer's. But since he is the one who organized and moderates the discussion, it's pretty clear where his views are on these topics (positive).
The discussion starts, appropriately enough, with Dr. Anderson, since he has worked in nursing homes for over 35 years and fought to make meals for the elderly more nutritious, with less refined carbohydrates. Having seen literally thousands of patients with Alzheimer's and dementia, Dr. Anderson sees the end result of poor dietary choices as well as the devastating effects of elderly people being on so many drugs, often 30 or more different medications at one time. He sees this as a contributing factor in dementia.
He is currently trying to work with nursing home dietitians and administrators to change their menus and remove a lot of the excess carbohydrates that cause insulin resistance and is a contributing factor in dementia. He is also working with family members and caregivers to encourage them to incorporate coconut oil into the diet of those suffering from Alzheimer's. He currently has one relative on coconut oil that is seeing benefits, and he wants to take one wing of the current nursing home he is working at and start supplementing them with two tablespoons of coconut oil (with the family's permission) a day. He mentions in the video that the University of Chicago stated that Alzheimer's and dementia would eventually bankrupt our country back in 1978, and the problem is much worse today, suggesting that the traditional medical approach has failed.
Next, Dr. Attia weighs in on the ketonic effect of medium chain fatty acids, in answer to a question as to why coconut oil "works" with Alzheimer's. Gary Taubes suggests that it is the ketones, and Dr. Attia gives an overview on how medium chain fatty acids work. Dr. Attia does make one slight mistake when he states that medium chain fatty acids are present in abundance in both coconut oil and palm oil. That is true for coconut oil, but not palm oil. Palm kernel oil, which is different from palm oil, is high in the medium chain triglycerides/fatty acids (MCT). But palm kernel oil is made from the endosperm of the palm oil fruit, not the fruit itself which is used to make palm oil. Palm kernel oil is largely unavailable as a dietary oil.
One interesting comment by Dr. Attia (which Robb Wolf also agreed) regarding his own experience in using MCTs is that the ketogenic effect is often seen with those who continue a high carbohydrate diet. I have seen this also. In one of our testimonies that we published, the daughter of the parent emailed me about her positive experience, and told me how she was "sneaking" the coconut oil into her parent's diet. She was using a lot of refined sugar (which we subsequently had a discussion about – and she thanked me), and yet was still seeing positive results.
Next, Gary Taubes talked about the principles of the ketogenic diet, and referenced one clinical trial done at the University of Cincinnati that induced ketosis from diet, through carbohydrate restriction, and saw positive results in patients with cognitive impairment. He then discussed the long history (over 70 years) of the ketogenic diet in relation to epilepsy. The ketogenic diet has a history of completely halting seizures in children when drugs do not work.
Curiously, Mr. Taubes put forth the idea that it may not be ketones that work in many of these cases, but simply carb restriction, and he referenced a study at Harvard that supposedly showed this among childhood epilepsy. Apparently the study used only a low glycemic diet that did not induce ketosis. He then said it could be a similar situation with Alzheimer's, apparently ignoring Dr. Attia and Robb Wolf's experiences (and mine as well – although I wasn't there!) that coconut oil produces these results even on a high carb diet in some situations.
Dr. Dall speaks next, and I believe there is a separate video from Specialty Health covering more of her comments. In this section she discusses the cost factor of caring for Alzheimer's patients, bringing out the point that we have much cheaper alternatives to expensive medical procedures and expensive drugs, that are related to diet and insulin resistance. She doesn't think that expensive screenings at age 30 are worth it, since it is not dealing with the problem.
Dr. Bacchus speaks next, and he apparently is someone who treats a lot of Alzheimer's patients, especially at late stages. He states that by the time he sees patients with Alzheimer's, that it is too late, and most drugs are not effective. He talks about how much of the current research on prevention is centered around costly medical procedures, and I actually reported a story on one of these new procedures that apparently only benefits the medical business, and not the patient (see: New Alzheimer's Imaging Test Provides NO Benefits, Only Profits for Drug Companies). He also discusses how medical research for Alzheimer's is currently looking at genetic patterns that present risk factors, and that there is a plan for developing an Alzheimer's vaccine (see: Obama Spending Your Tax Dollars to Develop an Alzheimer's Vaccine in Colombia). These areas of "prevention" are very speculative with no proven benefits (see: Harvard Medical School To Be Tried for Alzheimer's Research Fraud) and are very costly.
Robb Wolf speaks next and talks about how incredibly costly it is for all of these expensive procedures, with very little efficacy. He states that return on the investment in medical care for Alzheimer's is horrible, and is bankrupting our country. And yet we have simple low cost dietary solutions that medical institutions and academic centers are unwilling to even try.

Paper: Harding, L., Jackson, A., Barnett, A., Donohue, I., Halsey, L., Huveneers, C., … & Payne, N. (2021). Endothermy makes fishes faster but does not expand their thermal niche. Functional Ecology.
At a speed of 43 mph, it is nearly impossible to escape the deadly jaws of bluefin tuna. Their powerful muscles and streamlined torpedo-shaped body make them one of the fastest animals in the ocean. But according to a new study published in the journal Functional Biology, there is one more adaptation that contributes to this fish's speed – endothermy. The results from this study not only explain the ecological advantage of endothermy among fish, but it could also inform future conservation plans for warm-blooded fishes like tuna and predatory sharks.
Making Sense of Warm-Blooded Fish

Scientists are still making sense of the ecological advantage of endothermy among fish. One hypothesis argues that endothermy could expand the thermal niche of warm-blooded fish. Warm-blooded fish, according to this hypothesis, inhabit greater temperature ranges than cold-blooded fish, therefore, they have access to more sources of food and shelter. Another hypothesis claims that endothermy might result in faster swimming speeds, which are helpful when these animals are migrating or hunting. Yet, the evidence needed to test these hypotheses is difficult to acquire. As a consequence, the evidence supporting either hypothesis remains slim.
Smart Watches for Fish
Luckily, technological advances are finally allowing scientists to take a closer look into the differences between cold-blooded and warm-blooded fish. Like an Apple Watch or a Fitbit that tracks your steps, workouts, heartbeat, and other vital signs, biologging devices attached to the fishes' fins collect important data about a fish's whereabouts and swimming abilities. These tags provide a window into the lives of fish.

Scientists from Trinity College Dublin compiled biologging data from both cold-blooded and warm-blooded fish. Information such as water temperature, swimming speed, and water depths allowed scientists to simultaneously test both hypotheses. According to this data, on average warm-blooded fishes swim 1.6 times faster than their cold-blooded counterparts. Furthermore, this study found that warm-blooded fishes do not inhabit broader temperature ranges than cold-blooded fish.
Knowing that both warm-blooded fishes inhabit the same thermal ranges as cold-blooded fish has important conservation implications. Animals with broader temperature ranges are more resilient to the effects of climate change. The results from this study show that warm-blooded fishes face the same risks posed by climate change. This information is particularly important when creating conservation plans for threatened species.

Billy Zane, and His Thick Beard, to Guest Star on Community
Michael Schneider February 27, 2015, 4:45 pm
Adam Taylor/Yahoo/Sony Pictures Television
Billy Zane is dropping by Greendale Community College next season.
Zane is the latest guest star to be revealed on Season 6 of Community, which launches March 17 on Yahoo Screen. The actor will play a mysterious, nameless man scouting Britta (Gillian Jacobs) for a "unique talent."
The actor joins guest stars including Steve Guttenberg, who is playing a movie producer in an episode, and other surprises that haven't yet been unveiled.
Related: There Was a Police Academy Reunion on the Community Set, and Steve Guttenberg Explains Why
Zane's credits include Titanic and The Phantom. On TV, he's been seen on show such as The Deep End, Charmed, Boston Public and Twin Peaks. He was also recently seen in the FXX pilot Winter Dragon (based on the book series The Wheel of Time), which was aired in a stealth-like fashion in the middle of the night earlier this month.
Here's another look at a very bearded Zane on Community (with Jacobs and Travis Schuldt).


These low power beamsplitters have an Inconel alloy coating on the front surface and a broadband anti-reflection coating on the back. They split the beam by approximately equal reflection and absorption. Inconel has a spectrally flat reflectivity over the visible spectrum and considerably beyond that range making these beamsplitters useful for applications spanning visible and near infra-red wavelengths.


Sociocracy supports positive impact to be organised effectively, transparently and with equivalence of team members. This guide shares key aspects of how Sociocracy helps people thrive for a better world.
Sociocracy helps groups co-design their work and interactions within their domain of expertise.
Each group member is a leader. Together, they collaboratively decide on operational policy in semi-autonomous, self-organising groups to achieve the organisational mission. Founded on the 'both/and' approach, Sociocracy allows for a flat-structure of teams, with a hierarchy of work focus.
Sociocracy embraces a circular functionality. Teams are 'Circles', policies are decided in the round, and decisions are always reviewed. It integrates the edges of people's real-time experience to ensure collective aims are met effectively, transparently and with equivalence.
Sociocracy provides distributed leadership by allowing decisions to be delegated to smaller groups/circles within an organisation.
Circles have specific domain of focus, so that decisions are made by those with expertise and skill to deal with the nature of the decision.
All circle members have opportunity to ask questions and give responses to a proposal to ensure it meets the circle aims (which feed into the mission of the organisation).
collective ownership of decisions - meaning team members have shared responsibility of decision outcomes (avoiding finger-pointing down the line…phew).
This means progress can happen even though more information may be required for the broader picture around a topic. This avoids being 'paralysed' in long decision-making scenarios and/or delays in gaining clarity on the broader topic.
Rapid prototyping is an iterative, step-by-step process of creating a functional and refined product (originating in the tech industry). It evolves a product concept to an actual product through an experimental framework.
Obtain a yield - Everything actioned in sociocracy must meet circle and organisational aims. Vision-Mission-Aims are the bullseye for the macro and micro levels of a group. Measurement is built-in, demonstrating whether a project/action achieves their targeted yield.
Apply self-regulation & accept feedback - Policy meetings have circle members follow process/protocol. This requires self-regulation to support the team to be effective, transparent and equivalent in achieving collective aims. Feedback is constant, with circle members receiving each other's input through circle process, & measurement communicating the yield of a policy action.
Integrate rather than segregate - In consent decision-making, objections to a proposal are a resource ensuring it adequately meets circle aims. This information is integrated into the proposal where possible. All circle members are included in deciding how their team operates; integrating collective input, rather than segregating decisions to 'management' level.

I have 3 servers I'm trying to put behind the DMZ, they consist of a DNS/FTP Server, IMap Server, WWW Server.
When I first attempted it, I tried all three machines once, which didn't pan out.
Then I tried moving the least critical server (WWW), It moved just fine, I have it NAT'd and ProxyARP'd and all the required rules setup.
I then tried moving the IMap server, it appeared to work, but... From the LAN Zone, I can talk to it, and from WAN Zone I can talk to it if the machine trying to access it is on the network behind our Router and outside the firewall, but if a completely outside party tries to access the server, if gets no response. I'm at a complete loss... I fear that If I attempt to move the DNS/FTP Server I will have the same result.

Q: Optionally including scripts in SQL Server Projects 2012 I am building a SQL Publish Script that will be used to generate a database to our internal servers, and then used externally by our client.
The problem I have is that our internal script will automate quite a few things for us, in which the actual production environment will require these completed manually.
For example, internally we would use the following script
-- Global variables
:setvar EnvironmentName 'Local'

-- Script.PostDeployment.sql

:r .\PopulateDefaultValues.sql

IF ($(EnvironmentName) = 'Test')
BEGIN
   :r .\GivePermissionsToDevelopmentTeam.sql
   :r .\PopulateTestData.sql
   :r .\RunETL.sql
END
ELSE IF ($(EnvironmentName) = 'Client_Dev')
BEGIN
   :r .\GivePermissionsToDevWebsite.sql
END

This would generate a script like this:
-- (Ignore syntax correctness, its just the process I'm after)

IF($(EnvironmentName) = 'Test')
BEGIN
    CREATE LOGIN [Developer1] AS USER [MyDomain\Developer1] WITH DEFAULT SCHEMA=[dbo];
    CREATE LOGIN [Developer2] AS USER [MyDomain\Developer2] WITH DEFAULT SCHEMA=[dbo];
    CREATE LOGIN [Developer3] AS USER [MyDomain\Developer3] WITH DEFAULT SCHEMA=[dbo];

    -- Populate entire database (10000's of rows over 100 tables)
    INSERT INTO Products ( Name, Description, Price ) VALUES
    ( 'Cheese Balls', 'Cheesy Balls ... mm mm mmmm', 1.00),
    ( 'Cheese Balls +', 'Cheesy Balls with a caffeine kick', 2.00),
    ( 'Cheese Squares', 'Cheesy squares with a hint of ginger', 2.50);

    EXEC spRunETL 'AUTO-DEPLOY';
END
ELSE IF($(EnvironmentName) = 'Client_Dev')
BEGIN
    CREATE LOGIN [WebLogin] AS USER [FABRIKAM\AppPoolUser];
END
END IF

This works fine, for us. When this script is taken on site, the script fails because it cannot authenticate the users of our internal environment.
One item I thought about permissions was to just give our internal team sysadmin privileges, but the test data just fills the script up. When going on site, having all of this test data just bloats the published script and isn't used anyway.
Is there any way to exclude a section entirely from a published file, so that all of the test data and extraeous inserts are removed, without any manual intervention of the published file?

A: Unfortunately, there is currently no way to remove the contents of a referenced script from the generated file entirely.
The only way to achieve this is to post-process the generated script (Powershell/Ruby/scripting language of choice) to find and remove the parts you care about using some form of string and file manipulation.
Based on: My experience with doing this exact same thing to remove a development-environment-only script which was sizable and bloated the Production deployment script with a lot of 'noise', making it harder for DBA's to review the script sensibly.

Kaiam Corporation, a leader in advanced data center transceivers, have announced the completion of the acquisition of the manufacturing facilities of Compound Photonics (CP) in Newton Aycliffe in the UK. The acquisition includes investment by CP into Kaiam to further develop the facility.
The Newton Aycliffe facility will enable Kaiam to significantly increase its manufacturing capacity for silica-on-silicon planar lightwave circuits (PLCs) and 40Gb/s and 100Gb/s transceivers, and adds both electronic and optoelectronic compound semiconductor devices to the product line. The acquisition brings new space, tooling, and an experienced team to complement and expand upon Kaiam's existing Livingston, Scotland factory.
The new facility also allows Kaiam to produce InP Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) that will be needed for advanced transceivers in the future. This continues Kaiam's strategy of vertical integration that began with its acquisition of Gemfire's PLC fab in 2013.
The Newton Aycliffe facility is 300,000 sq. ft. and includes a fully operational wafer fab with 100,000 sq. ft. of cleanroom space for processing, packaging, and testing of III-V devices. The factory currently ships GaAs devices and circuits, and has the capability for InP optoelectronics. Originally built as silicon fab for DRAMs, the plant was converted to III-V materials by subsequent acquirers and now has both 3" and 6" lines for III-V devices.

Solution home Community Standards Policies and Guidelines
Suicide and Self-Injury Policy Print
Modified on: Thu, 11 Mar, 2021 at 3:52 PM
Spirit of the Policy
Principles and Rational
We recognize Medal as a social media platform where people may use many different channels such as our application and Discord server to discuss or draw attention to feeling that they or other may have surrounding the topics of suicide and self-injury. We are committed to working with organizations around to world to provide resources for our users to seek help when they may be in need. We remove any content that identifies and negatively targets victims of survivors of self-injury and suicide seriously, in humor or otherwise. People can feel free to share information about suicide and self-injury as well as discuss the topics so long as they do not promote or encourage the acts themselves.
The goal of our Community Standards is to encourage expression and create a safe environment for our users to share moments, ideas, and conversations with one another.
Safety: Safety is an essential factor in community building. At Medal, we are dedicated to removing content that encourages or causes real-world harm, including (but not limited to) physical, emotional, or financial injury as well as privacy violation that could harm a targeted individual(s).
We embrace the different backgrounds and diverse views of our community. We want to provide a platform and opportunity for users to not only share their gaming experience, but build lasting bonds with one another. We err on the side of allowing content, even when some find it objectionable, unless removing that content cant prevent real-world harm to the user. We vow to discuss and consider allowing content that otherwise violates our stands if we deem it to be newsworthy, or important to the public interest based on global and national trends.
Equity:
We recognize the diverse backgrounds of our community from around the world. It's important for us, at Medal, to keep our policies broad in order to apply them consistently and fairly based on an ever-adapting global culture. Because our community standards must transcend cultural, regional, and linguistic barriers, we recognize the need for a broad but consistent standard. Because of the broadness of our policies, in some cases, and when provided with additional context, we will have to make decisions based on the spirit, as opposed to the letter, of the policy.
Remove and Provide Resources
Content that promotes, encourages, coordinates or provides instructions for
Content that depicts graphic self-injury imagery, in any suicide or self-injury admission context.
Photos depicting a suicide attempt or death by suicide if an incapacitated body is present in the image.
Images containing focused depiction of ribs, collarbone, thigh gap or scapula or protruding spine in an eating disorder context.
Any content that provides instruction for unhealthy weight loss by means of extreme practices or methods associated with eating disorders.
Provide resources and leave up:
Written or verbal admissions of engagement in self-injury including;
Vague, potentially suicidal statements or references including (but not limited to); stock imagery, memes, or imagery referencing depression or sadness in a suicide or self-injury context.
Mark as Risky
Healed cuts in a recovery or insufficient context.
Images of individuals who are engaged in euthanasia/assisted suicide specifically in a medical settings.
Leave up and do not send resources:
Photos or videos of underweight individuals without clarifying captions or comments.
Weight loss content with no accompanying captions or reference to eating disorders.
Content created as a support resource for self-injury victims.

Sewing Support from Home
Before the threat of COVID-19 hit Buncombe County, seventeen-year-old Jo Gratz was ready to take the official driving test and obtain her driver's license when the DMV suddenly closed and a Stay Home Stay Safe order was put into effect. She began to see the call for fabric masks online and shifted gears with an early knowledge of sewing and a stock-pile of fabric at home.
"My mom taught me how to sew when I was four or five," she said. "I made quilts and things with straight lines. I saw a call online for masks and thought, I can do that in my afternoons or evenings. It's not a hardship to me and it might make a difference to someone else."
Goal: 10,000 Masks
She quickly got to work on a pattern of her own, which you can find on her website 10,000 masks, which is her goal during this COVID-29 crisis. Her mother, Wendi Gratz, saw a call through the United Way of Asheville and Buncombe County volunteer center and Gratz delivered the first batch of 130 masks which we then distributed to community partners in need. Wendi said she has supported by providing the fabric and helping to modify the pattern, yet Jo has really taken this on as her own.
"She recorded a tutorial video, created a website and has been reaching out to encourage others to make masks," her mother shared. "She's even been working by text with middle school students, trying to remotely help them to use their sewing machines."
While there has been much speculation over the protection and usage of fabric masks, the CDC does recommend "wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies), especially in areas of significant community-based transmission."
300 Masks and Still Sewing
As of last week, Gratz had finished just over 300 fabric masks total since she began her project just a few weeks back. You can monitor her progress on her website. "The day that I was actually going to go and take the test to get my license, the DMV closed, so I was looking for something I could do instead from home. And I thought, well I can sew all day long," she said. "So, it's a good way to help from home. You can practice good social distancing and good self-isolation while being helpful and making a difference."

Home ARCHIVED NEWS 2017 Phoenix Coyotes plan to stay for one more season
Phoenix Coyotes plan to stay for one more season
It has been a rocky road between the National Hockey League (NHL)'s Coyotes and the state of Arizona. While many setbacks have put the future of the franchise in question, we know for certain that the team will continue to call the Gila River Arena home for at least one more season.
The current Glendale-based arena that hosts the Coyotes invested $186 million in 2003 to build an arena intended specifically for the hockey team. Nine months ago, NHL Commissioner, Gary Bettman, expressed a desire to move the team if they did not get a new arena. Early estimates of this project would have been upward of $225 million. Due to budget restrictions, Phoenix legislatures did not sign off on this agreement, causing a riff between the NHL and the arena.
Part of the reason for a lack of funding for a new arena is due to how much money the Coyotes franchise is losing. According to Forbes, is the least valuable franchise in the NHL. They lost $19 million last season bringing their net value to around $300 million. In order to cut costs, the team released long time captain, Shane Doand from contract and gave a pink slip to the Coach, Dave Tippet.
While the Coyotes were figuring out where they were going to call home for the upcoming season, speculation circled that the team would move to either Seattle or Houston, who are both looking to bring a hockey franchise onboard.
As of right now, the Coyotes are on an auto-renewal agreement with its current home at the Gila River Arena. The team had until December 31, 2017 to let the arena manager, AEG, know if they were going to move to a new facility. Otherwise, both parties would enter a new agreement at the start of the New Year. However, the speculation is now put to rest because the Coyotes are signed on for at least one more season.

Q: Regex for finding valid sphinx fields I'm trying to validate that the fields given to sphinx are valid, but I'm having difficulty.
Imagine that valid fields are cat, mouse, dog, puppy.
Valid searches would then be:

*

*@cat search terms

*@(cat) search terms

*@(cat, dog) search term

*@cat searchterm1 @dog searchterm2

*@(cat, dog) searchterm1 @mouse searchterm2

So, I want to use a regular expression to find terms such as cat, dog, mouse in the above examples, and check them against a list of valid terms.
Thus, a query such as:
@(goat)
Would produce an error because goat is not a valid term.
I've gotten so that I can find simple queries such as @cat with this regex: (?:@)([^( ]*)
But I can't figure out how to find the rest.
I'm using python & django, for what that's worth.

A: To match all allowed fields, the following rather fearful looking regex works:

@((?:cat|mouse|dog|puppy)\b|\((?:(?:cat|mouse|dog|puppy)(?:, *|(?=\))))+\))

It returns these matches, in order: @cat, @(cat), @(cat, dog), @cat, @dog, @(cat, dog), @mouse.
The regex breaks down as follows:

@                               # the literal character "@"
(                               # match group 1
  (?:cat|mouse|dog|puppy)       #  one of your valid search terms (not captured)
  \b                            #  a word boundary
  |                             #  or...
  \(                            #  a literal opening paren
  (?:                           #  non-capturing group
    (?:cat|mouse|dog|puppy)     #   one of your valid search terms (not captured)
    (?:                         #   non-capturing group
      , *                       #    a comma "," plus any number of spaces
      |                         #    or...
      (?=\))                    #    a position followed by a closing paren
    )                           #   end non-capture group
  )+                            #  end non-capture group, repeat
  \)                            #  a literal closing paren
)                               # end match group one.

Now to identify any invalid search, you would wrap all that in a negative look-ahead:

@(?!(?:cat|mouse|dog|puppy)\b|\((?:(?:cat|mouse|dog|puppy)(?:, *|(?=\))))+\))
--^^

This would identify any @ character after which an invalid search term (or term combination) was attempted. Modifying it so that it also matches the invalid attempt instead of just pointing at it is not that hard anymore.
You would have to prepare (?:cat|mouse|dog|puppy) from your field dynamically and plug it into the static rest of the regex. Should not be too hard to do either.

A: This pyparsing solution follows a similar logic path as your posted answer.  All tags are matched, and then checked against the list of known valid tags, removing them from the reported results.  Only those matches that have values left over after removing the valid ones are reported as matches.
from pyparsing import *

# define the pattern of a tag, setting internal results names for easy validation
AT,LPAR,RPAR = map(Suppress,"@()")
term = Word(alphas,alphanums).setResultsName("terms",listAllMatches=True)
sphxTerm = AT + ~White() + ( term | LPAR + delimitedList(term) + RPAR )

# define tags we consider to be valid
valid = set("cat mouse dog".split())

# define a parse action to filter out valid terms, and attach to the sphxTerm
def filterValid(tokens):
    tokens = [t for t in tokens.terms if t not in valid]
    if not(tokens):
        raise ParseException("",0,"")
    return tokens
sphxTerm.setParseAction(filterValid)

##### Test out the parser #####

test = """@cat search terms @ house
    @(cat) search terms
    @(cat, dog) search term @(goat)
    @cat searchterm1 @dog searchterm2 @(cat, doggerel)
    @(cat, dog) searchterm1 @mouse searchterm2
    @caterpillar"""

# scan for invalid terms, and print out the terms and their locations
for t,s,e in sphxTerm.scanString(test):
    print "Terms:%s Line: %d Col: %d" % (t, lineno(s, test), col(s, test))
    print line(s, test)
    print " "*(col(s,test)-1)+"^"
    print

With these lovely results:
Terms:['goat'] Line: 3 Col: 29
    @(cat, dog) search term @(goat)
                            ^

Terms:['doggerel'] Line: 4 Col: 39
    @cat searchterm1 @dog searchterm2 @(cat, doggerel)
                                      ^

Terms:['caterpillar'] Line: 6 Col: 5
    @caterpillar
    ^

This last snippet will do all the scanning for you, and just give you the list of found invalid tags:
# print out all of the found invalid terms
print list(set(sum(sphxTerm.searchString(test), ParseResults([]))))

Prints:
['caterpillar', 'goat', 'doggerel']

A: This should work:
@\((cat|dog|mouse|puppy)\b(,\s*(cat|dog|mouse|puppy)\b)*\)|@(cat|dog|mouse|puppy)\b

It will either match a single @parameter or a parenthesized @(par1, par2) list containing only allowed words (one or more).
It also makes sure that no partial matches are accepted (@caterpillar).

A: This will match all fields that are cat, dog, mouse, or puppy and combinations thereof.
import re
sphinx_term = "@goat some words to search"
regex = re.compile("@\(?(cat|dog|mouse|puppy)(, ?(cat|dog|mouse|puppy))*\)? ")
if regex.search(sphinx_term):
    send the query to sphinx...

A: Try this:
field_re = re.compile(r"@(?:([^()\s]+)|\([^()]+\))")

A single field name (like cat in @cat) will be captured in group #1, while the names in a parenthesized list like @(cat, dog) will be stored in group #2.  In the latter case you'll need to break the list down with split() or something; there's no way to capture the names individually with a Python regex.

A: I ended up doing this a different way, since none of the above worked. First I found the fields like @cat, with this:
attributes = re.findall('(?:@)([^\( ]*)', query)

Next, I found the more complicated ones, with this:
regex0 = re.compile('''
    @               # at sign
    (?:             # start non-capturing group
        \w+             # non-whitespace, one or more
        \b              # a boundary character (i.e. no more \w)
        |               # OR
        (               # capturing group
            \(              # left paren
            [^@(),]+        # not an @(),
            (?:                 # another non-caputing group
                , *             # a comma, then some spaces
                [^@(),]+        # not @(),
            )*              # some quantity of this non-capturing group
            \)              # a right paren
        )               # end of non-capuring group
    )           # end of non-capturing group
    ''', re.VERBOSE)

# and this puts them into the attributes list.
groupedAttributes = re.findall(regex0, query)
for item in groupedAttributes:
    attributes.extend(item.strip("(").strip(")").split(", "))

Next, I checked if the attributes I found were valid, and added them (uniquely to an array):
# check if the values are valid.
validRegex = re.compile(r'^mice$|^mouse$|^cat$|^dog$')

# if they aren't add them to a new list.
badAttrs = []
for attribute in attributes:
    if len(attribute) == 0:
        # if it's a zero length attribute, we punt
        continue
    if validRegex.search(attribute.lower()) == None:
        # if the attribute from the search isn't in the valid list
        if attribute not in badAttrs:
            # and the attribute isn't already in the list
            badAttrs.append(attribute)

Thanks all for the help though. I'm very glad to have had it!

St Martin's marched on to the Greenstar Under-20 hurling Division 1 championship final after a comprehensive 14-point win over Faythe Harriers in Páirc Charman on Wednesday.
After a competitive start to the game, the visitors showed all their class to run out easy winners.
Faythe Harriers made the brighter opening and it took them only six minutes to find the net when Conall Clancy raced through and buried his shot past Callum Quirke.
The Wexford town men were ahead by 1-3 to 0-4 after ten minutes but this was as good as it got for them, as St. Martin's began to gain a foothold.
Excellent scores from Barry O'Connor and Michael Codd got them going, and when O' Connor was fouled in the square, Kyle Firman stepped up to find the net and put St. Martin's 1-8 to 1-3 ahead after 20 minutes.
Defences were on top for the remainder of the half, and when the interval whistle blew St. Martin's were ahead by 1-9 to 1-3.
The second period began with St. Martin's firmly on top. Conor Firman was starting most of their attacks from centre-back, and midway through the second-half they had extended their lead, thanks in the main to Kyle Firman who was accurate from placed balls and play.
If there was any doubt about the result it was put to bed with ten minutes remaining when Zac Firman caught a great ball, turned his marker and finished to the net to put St. Martin's 2-16 to 1-5 ahead.
Two minutes later things got worse for Faythe Harriers when David Gouldson was sent-off after an off-the-ball incident.
The rest of the game petered out as St. Martin's marched on to the final against Naomh Eanna, and on this showing it will take a very good performance from the Gorey lads to stop them in the Ferns Centre of Excellence tomorrow (Wednesday).
St. Martin's: Callum Quirke; Cian Ryan, Philip Dempsey, Sam Audsley; Adam Cantwell, Conor Firman, Philip McDermott; Ben Maddock (0-1), Eoin O'Leary; Michael Codd (0-2), Barry O'Connor (0-3), Ben Stafford; Jack Devereux (0-2), Kyle Firman (1-9, 0-6 frees, 1-0 pen., 0-1 '65), Zac Firman (1-1).

Phew. Breathe everyone. The first two weeks are over. The results are in. We now have a couple of weeks to process everything before it all begins again. So what happened?
Weekend overview: how did we do?
Well, we predicted the correct outcomes again, calling Ireland, England and Scotland as victors, with a little tighter scorelines than last week, but still not great.
So what does this mean? Well, our model feeds in games from the previous 4 years and works out an expected score for each team based on location and current ranking. More accurately speaking, this means each score is actually a metric to describe the relative strengths of the two teams, based on their performances over the previous 4 years. However, we think it is more fun to think of them as predictions. Any significant difference to the predicted score could therefore indicate over or under performance relative to their previous matches.
Ireland v Italy
Ireland demolished Italy by a margin of 37 points on Saturday, scoring eight tries in a comprehensive win. Unfortunately, this has been rather par for the course in this fixture in recent years, with the winning Irish margin in the last seven years being 37 points. Italy score three good tries and very nearly secured a four try bonus point (which would have been their first Championship point since 2015), but sadly at this stage the game had long gone.
Ireland started strongly and never really looked back, displaying the sort of try scoring ability that they so lacked in last weeks fixture against France. They will need to continue to show this against more difficult opposition than Italy as the tournament continues, and probably tighten up the defence – the Irish will not have been happy with the tries conceded as the game progressed.
They will be pleased with a bonus point win however, and the points difference achieved that puts them on top of the table over the first tournament break. Ireland also take their current winning streak to 9 games in a row, with their last defeat to Wales in last years Six Nations. Next up for them is Wales again, but this time at home in Lansdowne Road.
Ireland will be favourites going in, but this will be a difficult game for the Irish despite their recent home success, as Wales are one of the few teams to have enjoyed consistent triumphs in Dublin, winning three of the last six games played, and drawing one. It's worth noting that a slip up for Ireland here would probably hand England the title.
Unfortunately for the Italians there was little to take from this game. They were 28 – 0 down by half-time and had little to fight for from thereon in. However, as already mentioned they scored three good tries against an Irish side that is famously drilled in its defence. They also stretched England last weekend when they played front foot rugby, so there is definitely something there for Italian rugby. They will need to tighten up in almost every other facet of the game however, if they want to compete in these matches. A tough ask for the Italians and Conor O'Shea.


The brand voice is how the brand expresses itself in works, and it is a powerful expression of the total brand identity. Our goal is to present one unified voice regardless of the audience or context. Initially we look at competitors' voices for opportunities to differentiate your brand. Then, guided by the brand platform we'll explore a range of copywriting concepts for the brand voice, identifying the most promising direction and developing it into written copy for the core applications. The chosen brand voice will be developed into a section in the final brand guidelines.

Q: Running a Java program that connects to a localhost database on a different computer I've connected my really basic Java application to the Wamp server on my computer using the following code
try {
        Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
        Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(
                "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/project", "root", "password");

Obviously, this program runs on my computer, but no one else's, and I need to submit this as a project.
Is there anyway I can modify this part so that my partner and teacher can run the code from their computers, without having to download any special software, and access the database on my localhost? Possibly like replacing //localhost:3306 with //my IP address:8080?
All suggestions I've gotten involve networking, which I don't know anything about so I don't want to try and then mess up my computer unless I'm really sure
Things I've already looked in to, but aren't sure about:

*

*C:/wamp/alias/phpmyadmin.conf and entering the line ALLOW (other person's IP)

*team viewer (requires the other computer to use software other than my program)

*opening my router port to take incoming requests

Anything'll help guys, even just confirming it can't be done without some networking.
If it's something an inexperienced person can do, I'll take it.

A: Apart from what you have tried, you also need granting privileges to access your database.
Try granting privileges to users from other IP addresses.
Read documentation GRANT Syntax.
Example:
GRANT ALL ON test.* TO '%'@'localhost' ...
GRANT ALL ON test.* TO '%'@'%' ...
GRANT ALL ON test.* TO 'ravinder'@'192.168.1.105' ...
etc...

There are other forms of granting access to specific database object to specific or all users connecting from a specific computer or all.
I suggest you chose the one which is appropriate for your need.
But, keep in mind that '%'@'%' will allow all users from all systems.
After granting the privileges, change your dbURL value for connection string with your IP address.
Connection connection =
DriverManager.getConnection(
                "jdbc:mysql://your_system_ip_or_name_here:3306/project",
                "root", "password");

Deploy the regenerated app on desired systems and it should be working.

Dettaglio delle puntate

Prima puntata
Data: giovedì 15 dicembre 2021

Episodi 1 e 2 (selezioni)
I primi due episodi si concentrano sui live cooking: ogni aspirante concorrente deve preparare il proprio piatto sulla base degli alimenti scelti in precedenza nella dispensa a loro disposizione. Chiunque riceva almeno due sì, dovrà affrontare le prove tecniche. Ogni giudice, qualora un concorrente non passi la selezione, può mettere la firma sul grembiule affinché l'aspirante tenti la tecnica, possibilità concessa una sola volta per ogni giudice (rispetto alla precedente edizione, il grembiule è sempre bianco e non più grigio). Chef Locatelli decide di firmare un grembiule, ossia quello di Andrealetizia.

Seconda puntata
Data: giovedì 23 dicembre 2021

Episodi 3 e 4 (prove di abilità e sfida finale)
Nelle prove di abilità i 36 concorrenti selezionati vengono divisi in tre gruppi e ciascuno di essi affronta una sfida diversa. Gli aspiranti chef che svolgono un buon lavoro entrano direttamente nella cucina di Masterchef, mentre chi delude le aspettative viene eliminato. I giudici possono anche decidere di mandare i concorrenti incerti alla sfida finale per confermare l'accesso alla cucina o respingerli definitivamente.

Il primo gruppo deve condire un burrito in maniera originale. Entrano nella cucina di Masterchef Nicholas, Elena, Rita, Anna, Tina, Polone, Bruno e Tracy mentre Stefano, Luca, Matteo, Catia e Claudia si tolgono il grembiule. Chef Barbieri decide di firmare il grembiule di Mery salvandola e mandandola alla sfida finale.

Il secondo gruppo deve eseguire più tagli possibili di frutta e verdura, disossare un'anatra e sfilettare una sogliola. Jacopo e Roberto vengono eliminati anzitempo per via di troppi errori. Successivamente si aggiungono alla masterclass Carmine, Andrea, Federico C. e Andrealetizia mentre si tolgono il grembiule Federico T., Oriana e Veronica. Pietro e Greta vengono mandati alla sfida finale.

Il terzo gruppo deve realizzare un impiattamento bello da vedere partendo dal pollo arrosto con le patate. I giudici promuovono Mime, Dalia e Christian, mentre eliminano Marvi, Medya, Diego e Annamaria. Inoltre, mandano alla sfida finale Giulia, grazie alla firma di chef Cannavacciuolo, Enrico, Lia e Nicky Brian.

I concorrenti rimandati, per la sfida finale, devono realizzare un piatto inserendovi all'interno almeno due ingredienti "sbagliati" che dovranno essere aggiustati in preparazione (filetto di baccalà troppo salato, vongole piene di sabbia, riso stracotto, besciamella con molti grumi, panna stracciata e maionese impazzita). Alla fine della prova Giulia, Lia, Pietro, Mery e Nicky Brian entrano nella cucina di Masterchef mentre Enrico e Greta vengono eliminati.

Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol is reuniting again in Karan Johar's Next
By Sayak Karmakar Last updated Aug 22, 2022 361
Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol
Karan Johar's film 'Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani' is one of the most awaited films for Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol onscreen pair lovers.
The film is in the limelight since its official announcement by producer Karan Johar. Now there is a new update on the film. According to reports, Kajol and Shah Rukh Khan, the on-screen superhit duo of Hindi cinema, will make a special appearance in the movie.
After Rohit Shetty's Dilwale, the two are set to share the screen through the film four years later. The duo will soon start shooting in Mumbai. Shah Rukh Khan is currently busy with his project, but sources say he will have a day off for Karan Johar. It is unknown what he will do after leaving the post.
Shah Rukh Khan also made a cameo in Karan's 2014 film 'Ae Dil Hai Muskil,' which was well received by the audience. Similarly, Karan Johar returns to the screen as a director after many years through "Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani."
In addition to Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Singh, the film stars veteran actors in lead roles like Dharmendra, Jaya Bachchan, and Shabna Azmi. The film will release in February next year.
Kajol and Shah Rukh Khan last appeared together in the 2015 film Dilwale. People did not like Rohit Shetty's film Dilwale because of the weak story. Varun Dhawan, Kriti Sanon also acted in the film. The film competed with Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Bajirao Mastani. In this battle, Sanjay defeated Shahrukh's film. Ranveer Singh's Bajirao Mastani did a business of more than 180 crores at the box office.

It is unclear whether the two will have a particular song or a scene in the film. Lately, Karan revealed the film's release date with Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt. Karan said that this film would release on February 10 coming time.
