A school governing body (SGB) chairperson allegedly stole R29 000 earmarked for her school's matric farewell and later claimed it was taken during a robbery at her home.
The woman from Dennilton in Limpopo was arrested by police and appeared in the Moutse magistrate's court on Friday after it emerged that she had reported a fake robbery.
She claimed the money from a cheque she was given by the high school principal was stolen during a house "robbery".
But, according to a teacher at the school who wished to remain anonymous, the principal gave her the cheque to be cashed the following day.
"Instead of bringing the money to the school, she claimed she was robbed at her house and had already opened a criminal case at the police station.
"We are still shocked that one can steal from their children," said the teacher.
The SGB chairperson was released on R1 500 bail.
Police spokesperson Brigadier Motlafela Mojapelo said she was arrested last week during an operation conducted by members of crime intelligence and Dennilton detective service.
"A case of house robbery was reported on Wednesday at Dennilton police station by this woman. She alleged that two suspects wearing balaclavas entered her house and took the money.
"It soon came to light during preliminary investigations that the woman was making up stories and a case of perjury was immediately opened against her," he said.
He said the police managed to recover some of the money from two other people who had already deposited it into their respective bank accounts.
"The suspect had earlier gone to the local bank to cash a cheque and instead of taking it back to the school principal as per the school arrangement, she proceeded home and allegedly staged a fake house robbery.
"Cases of this nature are starting to mushroom as we gradually approach the festive period and a stern warning is issued against these tendencies," Mojapelo said.
Police said cases of theft were being considered against the recipients of a portion of this money and further arrests cannot be ruled out.
The Limpopo department of education has condemned the theft and called for punishment for the SGB chairperson.


Okra is the most popular name for Ladies' Finger. The latter name is used in English-speaking countries to denote this vegetable. It is otherwise referred to as gumbo or okra in these nations. It is a vegetable that grows in a flowering plant that belongs to the mallow family. This vegetable is popular for its seed pods that are eatable. There are different thoughts with respect to the geographical origin of this veggie. Some say that it is from South Asia, while some states that it is from Ethiopia. There are also supporters, who say that this veggie is from West Africa. However, the veggie is grown in tropical, warm temperature, and subtropical climates in the world.
The plant bears a number of dark green-coloured pods that measure from about 5 to 15 cms in length. The vegetable becomes ready to harvest within 45-60 days. Inside the pods, there are many small round white-coloured seeds that are naturally arranged in vertical rows. The pods are generally removed from the plant just before they mature and they are consumed as vegetables.
Even though there are varied varieties of this vegetable, all of them share a very similar nutritional profile. However, there are differences in their appearance and taste. Experts state that about half a dozen of okra is commonly available.
One of the unique features of this vegetable is the slimy juice it produces from its core. It is better not to overcook this vegetable and the inner pods should not be punctured to avoid the slimy juice from getting out. However, some people really wish to use the slimy liquid of okra in stews, soups, and broths to get the thickening effect.
In addition, it also has a healthy amount of magnesium, potassium, calcium, folic acid, vitamin C and Vitamin A. Similar to many other vegetables, this veggie is also free from sodium, cholesterol, and fat. In addition, it has a very negligible amount of sugar content. All these features make it the best food for dieting.

TV Review: Hawkeye, 1×5, "Ronin"
Chike Coleman December 28, 2021
Hawkeye episode five was one of those episodes that challenged what we thought about the characters that we know already. The best thing about this episode is that we got to know more about Yelena, the sister of Natasha introduced in Black Widow. We learn that during a mission to rehabilitate another Black Widow, she got caught up in the snap and lost five years of her life. That had to be a traumatic event for someone who spent their life trying to awaken other people from being controlled.
In another part of the story, Clint Barton finally faces his past as the Ronin. He tries to peacefully convince Maya that during the time he was this assassin, he did not intentionally murder her father. He was blinded by rage, and that should not have happened. Barton also pointed her in the direction of who was actually responsible for her father's death. The only reason that Barton escapes the fight with Maya is thanks to being saved by Kate Bishop.
The biggest problem with this episode is not tonal inconsistency but introducing new characters at the last minute. These characters have a significant impact on where the story goes, and presenting them at this time only serves to confuse the audience. The writers could have introduced those characters earlier and made some of the shorter episodes longer to have a better context informing us why the characters matter so much to the story. I'm specifically referring to how Yelena is used throughout the episode when she could have been introduced much earlier on as somebody tracking Barton's movements.
It's not a shock to me that Kate Burton's mother is the actual person behind the hired killing of Clint Burton. When you cast someone like Vera Farmiga, an Oscar-nominated actress known for her level of depth, why would you not use someone so skilled as a villain for a Marvel TV series? What bothers me most about this episode is that we still don't have answers to where Kate Barton's father is, whether he is actually dead or not.
The thing that I continually don't understand about this television series is where is the growth for these characters to the point where we can continually root for their success? I don't really care where Kate ends up at the end of the series because they haven't given me a reason to root for her to succeed. This is probably the most important aspect of a story that you can have when building a hero's journey. To have that be wholly ignored seems illogical. This is especially insulting when considering Kate Barton is being played by Hailee Steinfeld, an Oscar-nominated actress in her own right. She deserves a story that allows her to really grow as a character, and I haven't really seen that throughout the season.
What I have seen is someone who idolizes a hero that saved their life early on. There's nothing wrong with that concept; it just needs a stronger way to have that character move forward. We're at the tail end of this series, and this character doesn't have a direction to go other than possibly being independent of her mother. The character deserves a better journey than that. Significant story progression needs to happen in the final episode for me to believe that these characters will go somewhere worthwhile. Otherwise, this show needs its wings clipped.

Der Fastrac ist ein Traktor des britischen Herstellers JCB, der konstruktiv für hohe Geschwindigkeiten bei Transportfahrten ausgelegt ist. Untersuchungen in der europäischen Landwirtschaft hatten nämlich gezeigt, dass der Anteil der Straßentransportfahrten bis zu 70 Prozent aller Traktoreinsätze ausmachen.

Entwicklungsgeschichte

Ab 1986 experimentierte JCB mit dem "High Mobility Vehicle", dem ersten Hochgeschwindigkeitstraktor. 1987 wurde der erste Prototyp gefertigt. Dafür gründete das Unternehmen im Jahr 1989 die JCB-Landpower Ltd., da der Traktor in einer eigenen Fabrik in Cheadle in Großbritannien gebaut werden sollte.

Im Jahr 1990 wurde der erste Fastrac auf der Smithfield-Show in London vorgestellt. Er erreicht eine Geschwindigkeit von bis zu 64 km/h auf der Straße. Die Räder sind alle gleich groß, die Kabine liegt in der Mitte des Fahrzeugs. Der auf einem LKW-ähnlichen Fahrgestell aufgebaute Traktor verfügt über eine Vollfederung beider Achsen (hinten mit Niveauregulierung) und zwecks guter Kühlung außen liegenden Scheibenbremsen. Er kann neben Transportaufgaben genauso gut bei der Feldarbeit eingesetzt werden. Der Schlepper hat je eine Dreipunkthydraulik und Zapfwelle vorne und hinten (mit diesen können Gewichte von bis zu fünfeinhalb Tonnen im Heck- und drei Tonnen im Frontanbau gehoben werden), Allradantrieb als Standard und einen 6-Zylinder-Dieselmotor mit Turbolader von Perkins mit 125 oder 145 PS. Das Getriebe hat drei Gruppen mit jeweils sechs Vorwärtsgängen und eine Gruppe mit sechs Rückwärtsgängen.

Der erste Fastrac kam im Jahr 1991 auf den Markt, ab 1992 war er auch außerhalb Großbritanniens erhältlich. Er füllte die durch Einstellung der Produktion des MB-Tracs von Mercedes-Benz hinterlassene Marktlücke. 1995 gab es vier Modelle mit 115, 148, 168 und 188 PS.

Im Jahr 1996 brachte JCB den Quadtronic bei den Fastracs 1115 mit 123 PS und 1135 mit 148 PS heraus, der je nach Bedarf automatisch zwischen Zwei- und Allradlenkung wechselt.

1998 wurde die 1100er-Baureihe aufgerüstet und in 2000 umbenannt, zusätzlich kam der Fastrac 2150 mit 198 PS auf den Markt. Die Baureihe 3000 löste die Baureihe 100 ab. Sie hat ein dreistufiges Lastschaltgetriebe (Powershift), wodurch sich die Zahl der Gänge auf 54 Vorwärts- und 18 Rückwärtsgänge erhöht. Die drei Lastschaltstufen können in jedem Gang ohne Kupplungsbetätigung gewechselt werden.

Im Jahr 2000 verwendete JCB in den Fastracs der Baureihen 2000 und 3000 erstmals das sogenannte "Smoothshift"-Getriebe mit Auto-Shuttle-Wendegetriebe und Knopfdruckschaltung. Besonders die Konstruktion der Kupplung wurde geändert, was zu einem weicheren (→ smooth) Schaltvorgang führt und den Verschleiß vermindert. Hierbei gibt es den Fastrac 3155 mit 155 PS und den 3185 mit 185 PS.

Ab 2001 waren ABS-Bremsanlagen für alle Baureihen erhältlich.

2005 wurde auf der Agritechnica der Fastrac 8250 mit 250 PS (8,3-Liter-Cummins-Motor) und dem stufenlosen, leistungsverzweigten Getriebe von Fendt vorgestellt. Bei diesem Fastrac-Typ sind die Räder an der Hinterachse größer als die der Vorderachse.

2006 erfolgte die Einführung der neuen 3000er Baureihe mit 2-Modellen (3200 und 3230) mit 6,7-Liter-Cummins-Motoren.

2007 stellte JCB die Baureihe 7000 auf der Agritechnica in Hannover vor. Diese Baureihe hat ein Powershift-Getriebe mit 24 Vorwärts- und 12 Rückwärtsgängen und deckt den Leistungsbereich von 170 PS bis 270 PS ab. Des Weiteren wurde das Design des 8250 an die 7000er Serie angepasst. Im gleichen Jahr wurde die neue Baureihe 2000 eingeführt mit dem 2155 und 2170.

Im September 2010 wurde die überarbeitete 3000er Baureihe vorgestellt. Es kommt nun das P-Tronic-Getriebe (Teil-Lastschaltgetriebe) mit 24/9 Gängen und 3 Getriebemodi (Powershift, Autoshift und Drive) zum Einsatz. Der Drive-Modus erlaubt es, mit dem Fastrac wie mit einem PKW mit Automatikgetriebe zu fahren, d. h. ohne Betätigung der Kupplung anzufahren oder anzuhalten. In den beiden größten Gängen kann bei Bedarf der sogenannte "Powerboost" aktiviert werden, der 30–40 PS zusätzliche Motorleistung freischaltet.

Im September 2011 wurde die überarbeitete 8000er Baureihe vorgestellt. Sie hat nun einen 8,6-l-AGCO-Sisu-Motor mit SCR-Abgasbehandlung. Die Baureihe besteht nun aus 2 Modellen, dem 8280 mit 280 PS und dem 8310 mit 310 PS. Der 8250 wurde gestrichen.

Auf der Agritechnica im November 2011 wurde die nochmals überarbeitete 3000er Baureihe vorgestellt. Sie hat aufgrund neuer Abgasvorschriften einen 7,4-l-Sisu-Motor mit SCR-Technik bekommen.

2013 wurde auf der Agritechnica die Baureihe 4000 vorgestellt, die ab 2014 die 2000er Baureihe ersetzen sollte. Die Einführung am Markt verschob sich fließend und erfolgt nun Anfang 2015. Seit 2019 bietet JCB Deutschland die 4000er Serie auch als autobahntaugliche Ausführung an.

Is this Kamala Harris's rising star?
Jupiter-Saturn conjunction, VP-elect Harris , and your chart in 2021
· Kamala Harris,Uranus-Saturn square,mundane astrology,Jupiter-Saturn conj,2021
The takeaway: VP Kamala Harris's signature issues in the Biden administration will be determined in part by the current powerful, epoch-defining conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn in Aquarius in her 9th house (which is also a Saturn return in her nativity).
She'll likely focus on 7-8-9-10th house issues as Jupiter and Saturn rule these houses in her chart... with a special focus on the 9H house where the conjunction holds sway for most of 2021 in Aquarius . The planets' gravitas and power will serve the future-forward, aspirational , consciousness-raising politics of Aquarius.
We could see her rise more fully to prominence in early May possibly with an announcement on her own portfolio in the administration. It might have a theme that merges May's Jupiter transit to MC and natal Saturn: pragmatic institutional solutions (Jup-Sat themes) for inequities and negative impacts in 9th house/Aquarius areas: our judicial system, higher education, immigration, normative science and research, fair internet access for students, international trade and accords, and an 8th house-9th house issue, student debt. The 7th house involvement may reflect both the support of her husband, Doug Emhoff, and the calculated diplomacy required in her own partnership with President Biden ... or signify open enemies and allies.
ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-SA 4.0)
This Jupiter Saturn conjunction, the closest to earth in 800 years, in the fixed air element of Aquarius inspires constructive change on a stage which will continually move and shift around the heavy-hitter planets. Which means that some swings at the problem will likely be batting at air... not initially productive at all.
The fixity of Aquarius, however, suggests that VP-elect Harris will do her best to ensure that the administration fulfills its promises on key 9H issues (international, scientific research, higher ed, law) to benefit the Aquarian "folk"-- the underrepresented, the disrespected, the future-forward types and the currently unemployed. The very people who voted the Biden ticket in (and she knows it).
The next two years appear to be optimal for VP-elect Harris to make her mark. It overlaps with her (career) 10H profected year through next October 2021. In 2021, Jupiter (10H/7H ruler) enters Pisces, her 10H, shining some good fortune and a high public profile. There will be allies and open enemies aplenty (7H) which (on the plus side) means she will be very involved, not a bystander VP. Jupiter's brief ingress into Pisces in the spring (10H) adds charisma and compassion, attunement and intuition throughout the year for this heavily air-ruled VP (Gemini ASC, Libra Sun).
Having said that, Harris's Saturn return grinds on beyond to March 2023. Over the next two years of the full transit, Saturn squares Uranus "the Shock Jock" in Taurus in her 12H, and Harris can probably count on suffering some Uranian surprises and static. Interestingly, she has a square between a very prominent Midheaven-Saturn conjunction and Jupiter (10H ruler) in Taurus in her natal.... and Jupiter is in the 12H, also in the radix chart.
Even though Saturn is in his domicile sign in Harris's nativity, it's a malefic on the midheaven. She's probably learned a few hard lessons over the years about her underlying career strengths, like working her agenda behind the scenes, which is perfect for a VP. It might mean some kind of personal issue present sudden problems for her with Uranus active and squared in the 12th.
As stated above, Harris is in a Jupiter-ruled profection year (the planet ruling 7H 10H, and amplifying the profected 9H), which overall bodes well for these transits as Jupiter emerges from its fall in Cap and enters Aquarius.
For the rest of us hoi polloi ...
The broader picture of this long Saturn transit, and its square from Uranus in Taurus, has some troubling implications for all of us. The ultra-dry placement of a squared Saturn in fixed air suggests shortages, particularly of potable water, clean air, and arable, fertile land in the green thumb sign of Taurus, and agricultural labor may be in short supply as well. There may be ongoing protests from Taurus types. Taurus is a fixed sign associated with property and ownership interests, as well as anyone involved in environment, land, banking, and food production.
We'll see sudden shifts in consumer tastes to "green" everything, but it's possible that the "change we need" for the health of the environment and economy will occur at a grindingly slow pace once Jupiter leaves the sign in December 2021.
Wiser mundane astrologers than me, such as Lee Lehman, have forecast that this entire decade will be characterized by strife and division. In 2021, the difficulty of the changes is heralded by Mars's participation in the Uranus-Saturn square.
Change ain't easy ... ever. But when air dominates, it's too easy to plan and redraft plans in a disservice to earth signs and interests .... and that's another kind of problem to bear in mind as you look at your chart over this period.
A four-house impact in every chart
Jupiter-Saturn conjunctions typically herald a twenty-year cycle of "constructive change" such as civilization and career-building. You can check your chart for house placement of Jupiter and Saturn. You can bet those are areas of life that will benefit from careful, informed planning and progress. Also pay attention to the affairs of the previous two houses and the house subsequent to your house in Aquarius since Jupiter and Saturn together rule four consecutive signs: Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. Pro tip: also check aspects to the conjunction in Aquarius from your profected year house ruler, in transit and natally.
Your efforts will be rewarded based on patient work, and bold, imaginative research with the potential to engineer a better, more socially and environmentally just future. It sounds very Epcot Center, no?

The old new deal
This year, our two bright giants also sweep in a 200- year period where the conjunction (with few exceptions) happens in air signs only.
The arid fragrance of this epoch-shaping shift has been swirling in the air for a long while, since the first oddball conjunction of Jupiter-Saturn in air in 1980 ... and it arrives after Saturn Pluto and Mars have spent months besieging and afflicting Jupiter in Capricorn. For sure, Jupiter arrives to this conjunctio party a little less jolly than usual, and subtly bullied by Saturn who resides in his other domicile sign.
Will old-school Saturn resurrect dated ideals circa 1991, and fail to take up the challenge of climate emergency? Maaaaayyybe.
I grew up in Washington DC, which is Hollywood for poli-sci nerds. It may help to remember the maya-like illusion that power and sovereignty always cast. A typical DC kid, I grew up witnessing the sea changes between administrations, huge shifts in styles and aspirations that were overturned literally in the space of two months, on a Saturn-like clockwork of four or eight years. Regimes may cultivate an image of stability, but they more often produce unpredictable change and a "very stable genius" or two.
Hopefully we'll take a deep collective breath (those of us lucky enough to do so) and we'll try to roll with the air-dominant times.
A skillful response to our opportunities now
It wouldn't hurt to start by making a change for the better in the quality of our communications. Maybe we'll have more of Saturn's patience, taking time to build bridges of "right speech": well-crafted, empathetic communication, extending goodwill between all the communities we belong to, the virtual and the physical, the socially conscious ones, and the not-so-much.
It will be especially challenging in the coming months as the Mars squares from fixed signs can spur reactive responses, obstructing the long-term goal of national agreements on critical issues such as housing and food security, healthcare, and the environment.
My hope is that despite the strife, we'll at least be on speaking terms by Saturn's exit from Aquarius in early 2023.

Andrej Rubljov (rusky: Андрей Андреевич Рублёв, Andrej Andrejevič Rubljov, * 20. října 1997 Moskva) je ruský profesionální tenista a olympijský vítěz smíšené čtyřhra z tokijských her. Ve své dosavadní kariéře na okruhu ATP Tour vyhrál dvanáct singlových a tři deblové turnaje, včetně "doublu" na Open 13 2022. Na challengerech ATP a okruhu ITF získal pět titulů ve dvouhře a tři ve čtyřhře.

Na žebříčku ATP byl ve dvouhře nejvýše klasifikován v září 2021 na 5. místě a ve čtyřhře pak v října téhož roku na 55. místě. Trénuje ho Fernando Vicente. Dříve tuto roli plnil Sergej Taraševič.

V ruském daviscupovém týmu debutoval v roce 2014 baráží 1. skupiny zóny Evropy a Afriky proti Portugalsku, v níž vyhrál čtyřhru i dvouhru za rozhodnutého stavu 4:1 pro Rusko. V ročníku 2021 byl součástí vítězného ruského týmu. Do roku 2023 v soutěži nastoupil k devatenácti mezistátním utkáním s bilancí 12–5 ve dvouhře a 8–5 ve čtyřhře.

Juniorská kariéra
Juniorským debutem se pro něj stal ve třinácti letech turnaj v Lucemburku. Již při druhé účasti vybojoval první trofej, když triumfoval ve Phoenixu po vítězství nad Tunisanem Skanderem Mansourim. V prosinci 2012 získal vavřín z floridského Orange Bowlu.

V sezóně 2013 následoval titul na jihoafrickém NWU PUKKE/RVTA Junior ITF 1 Cupu v Potchefstroomu. Do čtvrtfinále prošel na Australian Open 2014. Na grandslamovou trofej dosáhl na dvouhře French Open 2014, když jako čtvrtý nasazený ve finále zdolal španělskou turnajovou sedmičku Jaumeho Antonia Muñara Clara. V deblové soutěži Roland Garros došli s Američanem Stefanem Kozlovem do semifinále. Po turnaji se 9. června 2014 stal juniorskou světovou jedničkou. Ve Wimbledonu 2014 mu překvapivou porážku ve třetím kole přivodil až 1 842. hráč žebříčku van Rijthoven z Nizozemska. Ve wimbledonské čtyřhře hráli s Kozlovem v roli nejvýše nasazeného páru. Ve finále však byli poraženi brazilskými juniory Orlandem Luzem a Marcelem Zormannem.

Na Letních olympijských hrách mládeže 2014 v Nankingu nastoupil do všech třech soutěží. Z dvouhry si odvezl bronzovou medaili po výhře nad Japoncem Džumpejem Jamasakim. Stříbrný kov vybojoval ve čtyřhře s Karenem Chačanovem, když ve finále nenašli recept na Brazilce Luze se Zormannem. V mixu pak vypadli s Darjou Kasatkinovou ve druhém kole. V závěru roku 2014 byl vyhlášen juniorským mistrem světa ITF.

Juniorskou kariéru ukončil v dubnu 2015 trofejí z premiérového ročníku mistrovské události ITF Junior Masters v Čcheng-tu. V závěrečném duelu přehrál Američana Taylora Fritze po dvousetovém průběhu.

Profesionální kariéra
Na okruhu ITF debutoval v červenci 2013 turnajem v bulharském Chaskovu, kde skončil ve čtvrtfinále na raketě Francouze Mathiase Bourguea. O měsíc později si jako patnáctiletý zahrál první finále v Minsku, kde byl nad jeho síly Bělorus Jegor Gerasimov. Premiérový titul si připsal v listopadu 2013 z floridského Bradentonu po finálové výhře nad Lotyšem Mārtiņšem Podžusem.

Premiérovým startem na okruhu ATP Tour se stal Delray Beach International Tennis Championships 2015, kde jej ve druhém kole vyřadil Američan Steve Johnson. Na události série Masters Miami Open zdolal Španěla Pabla Carreña Bustu, aby následně podlehl favorizovanému Johnu Isnerovi. Z kvalifikace do hlavní soutěže postoupil na antukovém Barcelona Open. V úvodní fázi přehrál španělského hráče Fernanda Verdasca a ve druhém nenašel recept na třináctého nasazeného Itala Fabia Fogniniho. Vítězstvím nad Finem Jarkko Nieminenem během Geneva Open, v sedmnácti letech zopakoval Nadalův výkon, a to vyhrát v juniorském věku (do 18 let) zápas alespoň na pěti událostech okruhu ATP Tour v jedné sezóně. Rafael Nadal tohoto výsledku dosáhl v roce 2004.

Grandslamovým debutem se stal US Open 2015, kde zvládl tři kvalifikační kola. V hlavní soutěži na úvod nestačil na jihoafrickou turnajovou patnáctku Kevina Andersona po čtyřsetovém průběhu. Premiérový titul z okruhu ATP Tour si odvezl z říjnové čtyřhry Kremlin Cupu 2015, když na divokou kartu s Dmitrijem Tursunovem ve finále porazili dvojici Radu Albot a František Čermák až v rozhodujícím supertiebreaku. Na červencovém Croatia Open Umag 2017 pak vybojoval první trofej ve dvouhře, když ve finále přehrál italskou turnajovou čtyřku Paola Lorenziho po dvousetovém průběhu. Stal se tak sedmým šťastným poraženým vítězem turnajů ATP v historii a prvním od triumfu Rajeeva Rama v Newportu 2009. Bodový zisk mu v následném vydání žebříčku ATP zajistil debutový posun do elitní světové padesátky na 49. místo

První čtvrtfinále na majoru si zahrál během US Open 2017, kde ve druhém kole vyřadil sedmého nasazeného Grigora Dimitrova a ve čtvrté fázi turnajovou devítku Davida Goffina. Následně jej vyřadil první hráč žebříčku a pozdější vítěz Rafael Nadal, jemuž odebral jen pět gamů. Stal se tak nejmladším čtvrtfinalistou US Open od Andyho Roddicka a ročníku 2001. Do finále se probojoval na úvodním ročníku závěrečného turnaje sezóny pro hráče do 21 let, Next Generation ATP Finals 2017 v Miláně, kde podlehl Jihorejci Čong Hjonovi, na něhož nestačil už v základní skupině. Turnaj se odehrával ve formátu Fast4 tenisu bez bodového ohodnocení.

V době zahájení ruské invaze na Ukrajinu v únoru 2022 hrál závěr Dubai Tennis Championships 2022. Po semifinálové výhře nad Polákem Hubertem Hurkaczem napsal na kameru vzkaz: "No war please". Ve finále zdolal českého kvalifikanta Jiřího Veselého po dvousetovém průběhu a vybojoval jubilejní desátý singlový titul. Navázal jím na šest dní starý triumf z Open 13 Provence 2022 v Marseille.

Soukromý život
Narodil se roku 1997 v ruské metropoli Moskvě do rodiny profesionálního boxera a později restauratéra Andreje Rubljova a tenisové trenérky Mariny Marenkové, která se podílela na vedení např. Anny Kurnikovové.

K roku 2015 jej trénoval běloruský kouč Sergej Taraševič. V rámci přípravy studoval Raonicův servis, Nadalovu hru nohou a pohyb či Federerovu herní lehkost a forhend.

Australia Day in the last 2 years have been characterised by a long weekend camping on the most gorgeous stretch of beach at Stradbroke Island.
However with the mind boggling amount of contaminants from the flood waters now in ocean water, we figured we might not want to risk swimming in the ocean just yet (and it's a good thing too).
Nonetheless, we had a great time at a friend's place. The weather was blisteringly hot, but the beers were cold, the barbeque was on and there was a homemade slip 'n slide set up out back (for those, such as erushi who do not know what a slip 'n slide is) - and I got to wear my Love St dress.
Love love love! No side tape needed, even though the darts are sewn a little too high.
you look so vavavoom! and that dress is gorgeous!
Heh, thanks! It's a lovely dress for the hot weather we've been having, or a day at the beach & you're wearing a bikini underneath. The designer said she recycled vintage dollies for the middle section.

Q: symfony2 doctrine2 : how to debug why a collection setter is not called I am having an issue described here :
Can't persist symfony collection with double embedded form
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27188337/symfony-setter-not-called-on-form-collection-type-even-with-by-reference-fals
I can't get a setter collection to get called even with the property by_reference set to true.
Here my question is how can follow the chain of commands conducting symfony/doctrine to call this setUserIngredients of a userIngredients collection ?
Which functions from the vendors files are called to identify the by_reference => false and call the appropriate setter ?
Thanks a lot !

A: To follow the chain of calls you can hook up a debugger. For example http://phpdbg.com/ or http://xdebug.org/ alternatively if you already know a specific function that gets called then you can temporarily put var_dump(debug_backtrace()) in your vendor code to see how it gets to that point

Series Finale: Friday Night Lights – "Always"
"Clear Eyes. Full Hearts. Can't Lose."
Perhaps more than any other show on television, Friday Night Lights is actively concerned with the notion of legacy. The Dillon Panthers were one, the East Dillon Lions are becoming one, and the show itself has formed its own sense of legacy with distinct notions of past, present and future despite a relatively short five season run.
In politics, or even in sports, the final moments are when the legacy is at its most vulnerable. As unfair as it might seem, the legacy of Friday Night Lights could very well come down to how "Always" brings the series to its conclusion. This will be the final time we spend with these characters, their final actions and reactions, and Jason Katims' challenge is finding that balance between progress and consolidation.
He found it. "Always" is not perfect, getting a bit too cute for its own good towards its conclusion, but it all feels so remarkably "right" that it captures in an hour what the series accomplished over the course of five seasons. It is uproariously funny and incredibly moving, and those moments which resonate emotionally are not simply those which have been developing over the course of 76 episodes. The weight is felt across the board, with characters old and new finding self-realization amidst a larger framework.
They are legacies within legacy, as "Always" captures the emotional current of what will go down as one of the decade's finest drama series.

Friday Night Lights – "Don't Go"
"Don't Go"
If Friday Night Lights had ended after three seasons, I would have been incredibly disappointed. The fourth and fifth seasons of the show have featured some tremendous moments, introducing new characters and offering more opportunities for Kyle Chandler and Connie Britton to demonstrate their command of the Taylor family dynamic. The idea of losing the tragedy of "The Son," and never meeting Vince Howard and Luke Cafferty, is the sort of televisual counterfactual that I don't even want to consider.
And yet, "Don't Go" made me consider it. While the episode demonstrates the degree to which these two short seasons have made a considerable impact, it also demonstrates how far one character in particular has fallen. While the series may be reaching its conclusion, there has been no attempt to sugar coat the fact that not everything is going to turn out in the end. In fact, "Don't Go" is very much about the interrogation of what exactly would constitute a happy ending for this series, questioning if there is any combination of conclusions which won't simultaneously touch our hearts and break them in half.

Friday Night Lights – "Gut Check"
"Gut Check"
Thanks to a particularly busy schedule and some difficulties getting access to the episodes in question, Friday Night Lights' fifth season has been mostly absent from Cultural Learnings. And yet, this is about to change, both because of greater access and because there is a growing sense of urgency.
Not really within the show itself: while there is certainly plenty of tension on the series right now, it continues to follow the slow burn mentality it always has. And yet my relationship with the series has taken on a certain tension, as it is becoming more and more clear that this is a show which is about to come to its end. I could have waited until the NBC airings to cover the show, but this is going to be the real ending: this is when critics will write their posts on the series' legacy, this will be when the fans will respond to the fond (or, who knows, potentially tragic) farewells, and this is when I want to say goodbye.
And so I'll likely be checking in with the series weekly from now until the finale – for now, a few brief thoughts on the season as a whole and a more detailed review of "Gut Check" after the jump.

Season Finale: Friday Night Lights – "Thanksgiving"
The best compliment I can pay Friday Night Lights right now is that I left its fourth season finale wanting so much more than I received.
I know this is normally considered a negative statement, in that the show was somehow lacking in something that I desired, but that's sort of the point of the ensemble drama: by showing us the lives of so many characters, there will inevitably be plots we don't get to follow, relationships we don't get to spend time with, and stories that could have had broader implications. The mark of a good ensemble drama is that we actually wanted to fill in those gaps, and the mark of a great one is that even with those gaps we are enormously content with the story that has been put on screen and want to see more.
Friday Night Lights hasn't had a perfect fourth season, trapped between interesting new characters and paying service to those who came before, but the world of Dillon, Texas remains as vibrant and empowering as ever before. "Thanksgiving" is neither a definitive goodbye to original cast members nor a defining moment for the new characters who arrived earlier this season, but rather a series of moments that define this ensemble and the world in which they play football and, more importantly, live their lives. And while some part of me wanted a three-hour finale, giving us the scenes that it felt like we needed before the various stories came to an end, the selective gaze which Jason Katims adopts in the episode feels satisfying as a whole, bringing to an end an uneven but affecting season of network television's finest ensemble drama series which bodes well for the final chapter this fall on DirecTV.

Friday Night Lights – "Injury List"
"Injury List"
Friday Night Lights is a show about convergence.
Really, all ensemble dramas end up driving towards climaxes which tend to bring various story elements together, so this may not seem overly remarkable. However, as the show heads towards the conclusion of its fourth season, the show is doing a lot to bring together stories, simplifying in some instances and complicating in others.
And while some of the tension created by this convergence is engaging, what I tend to enjoy more is the sort of indirect effects: this is the first time in a while where the show actively demonstrated the show's central dilemma of ignoring the football in order to service the characters on a personal, non-football level, and that tension (when used, as opposed to simply created and elided) is part of the show's tragedy.
"Injury List" is about capturing the tragedy of stories converging at the worst possible time, although the show manages to keep (most of) that convergence from seeming too convenient in the show's late season push.

Friday Night Lights – "The Lights of Carroll Park"
"The Lights of Carroll Park"
The problem with episodes of Friday Night Lights which feel overrun by homicide or criminal elements is not that those stories are inherently terrible, but rather that they feel incongruous with the show's world. This is purposeful, meant to manufacture tension, but I don't think it's entirely necessary. It's entirely possible to confront these types of issues within the show's particular worldview, demonstrating the consequences of crime in ways which feel less contrived and disruptive of the show's natural order. The show can be about the conflict between the criminal and law-abiding without the show becoming defined by that conflict (or by characters flirting dangerously between the two worlds), and "The Lights of Carroll Park" is a good example of how that can be accomplished.
It's a slightly more problematic example, however, of how the show can confront the question of abortion. While I am not judging that storyline too quickly, as I'm sure it will be given more time to develop over the weeks to come (and perhaps into next season), the show sort of stretched the believability of its characters' maturity in dealing with the situation. While I'm all for level-headed approaches to these kinds of storylines, as it's one of the show's strongest qualities, I also feel as if there are certain character who should be responding in ways that aren't mature, and in ways that reflect how challenging these kinds of moments can be.
I guess me distinction is that I want the show to be challenging as opposed to challenged, and while the revonation of Carroll Park naturally fit into the first category I think the teen pregnancy sort of forced its way into the same position.

Friday Night Lights – "Toilet Bowl"
"Toilet Bowl"
Friday Night Lights is a show that, despite various dips in quality, has not fundamentally changed since its first season. It has always been a show about the people in a football-crazy town, revealing both the problems which complicate their lives and the people (and the sport) that helps them keep grounded.
The show's problem has been those moments (primarily isolated in the second season, but cropping up in the first season as well) where it feels as if the problems are the only thing that's working about the show. The second season didn't just struggle because a character murdered someone, but rather because the show simultaneously retreated from the football culture that was its heart: I don't believe the murder would have ever been a good idea regardless, but it could have been handled much more efficiently if it had been folded into the community rather than remaining a distraction.
While the fourth season started as an homage to Season Three, with Matt Saracen's farewell arc echoing Smash and Street's exits, it has quickly evolved into an extended test of whether the show better understands the mistakes it has made in the past. The show has never been beyond having people make mistakes, and delaying the consequences of those mistakes, but the show is stepping into familiar stories, and not in a good way. "Toilet Bowl" is filled with red flags, characters taking actions that come from a somewhat logical place but which for the sake of narrative expediency are coming faster than they probably should.
It's adding up to a show that I'm not quite as excited as watching, even if (relative to the second season) there are more reminders of the show and the community that elevate that drama to another level.

Heroes was created by Tim Kring and is produced by NBC Universal Television. In the United States, it airs on NBC and is being broadcast in several other countries by other networks.
The executive producers are Tim Kring, Allan Arkush, and Dennis Hammer. Co-executive producers are Michael Green, Natalie Chaidez, Jesse Alexander, Jeph Loeb, and Greg Beeman. Jim Chory produces, with Aron Coleite and Lori Motyer as co-producers and Bryan Fuller as a consulting producer. Adam Armus and Kay Foster are supervising producers. Mark Warshaw is an associate producer, and produces the Heroes Evolutions content.
Episodes are broken down and co-written by the entire writing team, with each writer being responsible for a storyline or character arc. Then, one or two writers take the lead to bring an episode together. The writing team is comprised of Jesse Alexander, Adam Armus, Natalie Chaidez, Aron Coleite, Kay Foster, Bryan Fuller, Michael Green, Chuck Kim, Tim Kring, Jeph Loeb, Joe Pokaski, and Christopher Zatta. D.J. Doyle is an assistant to the writing team.
Incidental and theme music is provided by Wendy and Lisa, with vocals by Shenkar. Spot songs from other artists are also included.
Ruth Ammon is the production designer, Matthew Jacobs and Michael Budge are art directors, and Walter Eckert is the art department coordinator. Tim Sale is an artistic consultant and produces all of Isaac Mendez's artwork.
Debra McGuire is the costume designer for Heroes. She works with the producers and the art department to design the appropriate attire for the cast of the show.
Lori Madrigal is the department head for makeup. Her assistants for Season One included Vicky Phillips as key hair stylist and the following makeup artists: Brian Blair, Glenn Hetrick, Brigitte Hennech, Richard Mayberry, Thea Samuels, and Greg Solomon.
The stunt coordinators for Season One were Ian Quinn and Steve Schriver. Their assistants included Jeremy Fry as stunt driver and the following stunt performers: Brian Avery, Darryl Chan, Steve Chang, Fernando Chien, Anthony Molinari, Justin Sundquist, Gary J. Wayton, and others.
Heroes films in Los Angeles. One of the biggest tasks the production team face is making LA look realistically like New York, as much of the action occurs in this city. This is mainly done by importing New York-style yellow taxis and filming in places which highly resemble New York. Heroes also has many settings outside of America (such as India, Ireland, Haiti and Mexico), but these are still filmed in LA, with the production team working very hard, using a mixture of set design, props, and special effects in order to accurately represent these.
More information about the production staff is released in a series of short behind-the-scenes videos on NBC.com entitled Inside Heroes, and in BBC Two's Heroes Unmasked.

Best Coast have shared their first ever festive song
Dork News Desk
Best Coast have shared their first ever festive song, a cover of the Beach Boys' 'Little Saint Nick'.
Speaking about their take, vocalist Bethany Cosentino explains: "Being from California and being heavily influenced by The Beach Boys, we had to cover this one. It's also always fun for me to cover a song with a wall of harmonies and background vocals because it's my favorite part about recording vocals."
The Christmassy offering follows up on the recently aired 'For The First Time', the first taster of forthcoming album 'Always Tomorrow', which is set for release next year.

What 'Work Longer Please' Means
It may only be over 100 years ago, but life in the 1900's would be considered brutal by today's standards. The bubonic plague was killing people in major Australian cities. Lights in your home might be candle or gas. Fridge, well that didn't exist. Indoor plumbing? If you were lucky. If you examined the list of what we might consider horrors, it would be akin to the famous Monty Python sketch where the four Yorkshiremen attempted to one up each other with tales of how hard their childhoods were.
"…you try telling that to the young people today, they won't believe you!"
Life expectancy for males was 55 and for females it was 59. It's the reason when a national pension came about in 1909-10 the eligibility was set beyond life expectancy. 65 for the men and 60 for the ladies. It was a little bit of dignity. Just not too much.
Things have changed. Without the bubonic plague, a little bit of modern medicine and some safety standards, we have more people over 65 than ever before. Life expectancy? For gents it's now out to 81 and for the ladies it's 85. The pension age has barely budged. By 2023 you'll need to be 67 for your first lick.
For governments it's a maths problem. We're living too long. There's not enough money. And there's the other 'problem'. While they won't say it in so many words, those over 65 are too idle for their liking.
Treasurer Josh Frydenberg flagged the issues in his recent speech to the Committee for Economic Development of Australia. Back in the 70's, the number of working age Australians to those over 65 was 7.4 to 1. In 2014-15, it was 4.5 to 1, in forty years' time it's projected to be 2.7 to 1. What's the impact? As Frydenberg noted:
In a report published by the Parliamentary Budget Office earlier this year, it is estimated that the ageing of the population will reduce annual average real growth in revenue by 0.4 percentage points and increase annual average real growth in spending by 0.3 percentage points over the decade.
If that means anything to you, great, but if not, let's just say the government aren't happy about oldies dragging on growth. Which is why Treasurer Frydenberg also suggested the government wanted to help old Australians stay in the work force longer. Whoosh – didn't that provoke a response!
The largest reaction came from older Australians. Predictably angry at the suggestion they should get back on the tools or switch on the computer again. There was a bit of Monty Python in the responses. No one did it tougher than them and they don't want to work any longer.
Fair enough, but this has nothing to do with them. It was a suggestion they can happily ignore. No one retired, nor anyone in spitting distance of super preservation age or age pension qualification needs to give this a second thought.
Those under 45, or more likely under 40, might want to wake up though.
Back in 1997 the federal budget included changes to superannuation preservation age. 55 was gradually increased to 60. By 2024, no one under 60 will be accessing their super (hardship or health excluded). In 2009 the age pension qualification was increased from 65 to 67, this change being fully in effect by 2023. In the 2014 budget, Treasurer Joe Hockey increased to age 70, but the senate balked at the idea and last year new PM Scott Morrison binned it totally.
Those young enough shouldn't make the mistake of thinking the matter is closed. Politicians talking about it means public servants are doing economic modelling on it. There is clearly hand wringing going on behind the scenes.
The biggest risk around retirement, or more specifically superannuation, was never returns or fees. Anyone paying attention can quickly cut their fees or boot unreliable stock pickers. It's always been legislative. Every couple of years there's a new load of tweaks and changes for the supposed betterment and sustainability of the system.
Most changes are frustrating, but usually minor. The double-edged sword of superannuation is preservation age. It's great for saving because you're locked out until a certain age, but government controls the timer on the lock. If government wants you to work longer it's just a matter of them increasing the timer on the lock.
There is an obvious counter argument. As more people have a lifetime of superannuation, the burden on the taxpayer will lessen, so what's the problem? There's a counterpoint to that. We're likely to live even longer in the future. People have been known to burn through their superannuation with cruises, boats and caravans to then go on the pension because they know the pension is there. Someone taking a full pension from 65 to 95? You can guarantee that brings a scowl to the face of those in the parliamentary budget office.
What are the strategies when politicians are firing 'work longer' missiles across the electorate? Be aware. Superannuation is a fantastic tax advantaged structure for retirement, but don't be shocked if one day in the near future the government says you won't get your hands on your money until 65.
If you're under 40 and dreaming of sleeping in every day come 60, it might require a slush fund outside superannuation to bridge the gap. Taking on that monster mortgage with the belief you'll one day pull a lump sum from superannuation and pay it off? What if there are no more lump sums?
"That's not fair" isn't a response. Assume it all. Governments can't live within their means at the best of times. A tsunami of people getting older doesn't just have implications for the age pension. They'll also need more support and health care. That's more money. Want to live on your own terms? More saving and presumptive planning. Yes, presumptive.
Retirement for those born after 1980 may be the game that moves as you play.

Q: Does the `Dictionary` created by the default constructor use a hash code? I need to use a class that I have written as the type of the key for a Dictionary
I read the documentation on MSDN about the default constructor of Dictionary

Dictionary<TKey, TValue> requires an equality implementation to
  determine whether keys are equal. This constructor uses the default
  generic equality comparer, EqualityComparer<T>.Default. If type
  TKey implements the System.IEquatable<T> generic interface, the
  default equality comparer uses that implementation. Alternatively, you
  can specify an implementation of the IEqualityComparer<T> generic
  interface by using a constructor that accepts a comparer parameter.

This makes think that the only thing I have to do is to have my class for the key implement System.IEquatable<T>
However i'm very surprised that System.IEquatable<T> doesn't have a HashCode() method.
So will the Dictionary created this way use a hash code? If yes where does it come from ? Otherwise, will my Dictionary have constant cost access operations (I don't think it's achievable without a hash code)

A:
However i'm very surprised that System.IEquatable doesn't have a HashCode() method.

It would be redundant for System.IEquatable<T> to have a HashCode method as System.Object (which your implementing class will implicitly inherit from) already provides the method GetHashCode

A: Yes, the dictionary will use a hash code. The dictionary is really a hash map beneath the covers.
The hash code implementation it will use is the one implemented by GetHashCode in your key. If you do not define an implementation yourself, the hash code will be based on reference for reference types, and on the individual fields for value types (structs). When using your own class as the key in a dictionary, it is advised to implement GetHashCode.
When you implement IEquatable<T>, you must override Equals and GetHashCode on object to match your implementation of IEquatable<T>. The reason why it is not in the interface, is that GetHashCode is already defined on object, that all classes derive from, so having it in the interface would not make a difference.
If you fail to implement GetHashCode so it matches your IEquatable<T> implementation, you might run into an issue where you put a key in a dictionary, but are unable to retrieve it again, because the hash code does not match: When the dictionary looks for a key, it first calls GetHashCode on that key. From this, the dictionary derives the internal bucket, that the key should be in. Then it looks through all keys in that particular bucket and calls Equals to find the correct key.

A: It still uses the overridden object.GetHashCode() method to obtain the hash code. The reason that there is a separate IEquatable<T> interface (i.e. why the default EqualityComparer<T> doesn't always just call the overridden object.Equals() method to compare two objects) is for performance reasons - object.Equals() takes an object argument and therefore the implementation has to cast it to the target type before it can perform a meaningful comparison (value types also have to be boxed and unboxed); whereas the argument to IEquatable<T>.Equals() is already of type T. This performance consideration doesn't apply to the GetHashCode() method since it takes no argument, hence there is no reason for it to exist on the IEquatable<T> interface.

A: Dictionary (HashSet and KeyedCollections) all use HashBuckets (for speed).
HashBuckets use GetHashCode which is Int32.
If objects are not equal then they must have different GetHashCode.
But two objects that are not equal may have the same GetHashCode.
If the GetHashCode is the same then the tie breaker is Equals.
GetHashCode comparison is faster - you want to avoid the tie breaker.
You want a good (unique) GetHashCode.
If the objects come from a database and the table has key and that key is Int32 (or less) then use that for a perfect hash code.
If your objects don't have a natural key then can use the system GetHashCode.
But if you have a natural key then use it.
All object implement Object
Object Class
If your class does not overrite GetHashCode then it will come from Object.
Advise against Tuple or KeyValuePair for Key as they don't produce a good GetHashCode.    Lot of collisions.
