I prefer UTZ over Lays.
Never heard of them. If they're better than Lay's, give them now.
They MAY be a Pennsylvania (and surrounding state) company, not sure. I do know they are based in PA.
They make all kinds of snacks, but their potato chips are the primary. I much prefer them to Lays. They taste quite a bit different, in a good way. A stronger flavor, or something. I don't know how to describe the difference, really.
I am in a surrounding state. Let the hunt begin.
My mother says they've started branching into New York, so they may be in other states as well. If you find them, I'd try the basic, red and white bag (top left in image). If you prefer wavy/ripple cut, try the blue one (top right in image).
They're a local-ish/Pennsylvania-based brand, but are definitely good enough to go national if they catch on.
Ordelia: ...are you sure those are not intended for puppydogs?
That is the coolest potato chip bag I've ever seen!
If you like dropping acid.
The description didn't help. I'm still not entirely convinced it was designed for human consumption.
Seaweed wrapped ones are better.


I wonder what she would think if several million Patriots showed up on her lawn disputing her attempts to overthrow a duly elected president?
Maxine Waters was speaking at a gala in New York City when she continued her war with Trump. "With this kind of inspiration, I will go and take Trump out tonight," she said.


Landry started lookin like a man among boys end of season. Just a hair short on so many plays.
Found it interesting when Pees was talking about FA/Draft, he definitely had a emphasis of speed over size.
Agreed on the speed aspect - sounds like it'll be a point of emphasis in the maturation of personnel (and rightfully so).
I thought he was actually just as impressive late as Evens was, he came inches short on a bunch of strip sacks late in the year that you dont notice till you re watch the play.
Kind of a mischaracterization of sorts.
He's saying he wants bigger guys if they're also fast, rather than just big guys for the sake of big guys.
Interesting what Pees said about the top 10 offenses didn't win the superbowl.
I know we need more pieces on offense, and if a can't miss guy is there at 19 then fine, but I hope we keep stockpiling defense. Last draft was great for picking up a couple of possible cornerstone players. Let's keep adding to that.
Like I said, if there's a can't miss prospect there then fine. But I'd rather add to the defense via the draft and offense in FA. We don't need any more rookie/young receivers as we already have plenty of those. And unless there's Gronkowski the 2nd sitting there at 19 then maybe we could wait until the 2nd round for a tight end.
He certainly didn't make a case for two- gap clogging behemoths. But I don't think you can really read anything into these general offseason comments.
This offense is a bottomless pit. No matter how much we throw at it there is no improvement.
The only thing added to the offense in 2018 was a rotational RB.
Unless you want to count a 7th round Qb who is no longer with the team, the entire draft was defense. The titans had one expensive free agent...a CB with a rotational DL thrown in for good measure.
We actually lost players on offense to injury and Matthews quitting. Not only did we draft three guys on defense but Finch came in as a FA and looks promising.
The offense really needs most of the attention this draft. OL, WR and TE not to mention we may consider taking a shot at another QB at some point and hope we get lucky.
We need better defensive players for depth and improvement. But we should not forget that both those SB teams offenses are light years ahead of the Titans. The Rams played that 100+ scoring game on MNF. Tom Brady has slowed, but he could still hang 35 on teams. Nobody wants to address it, but right now we have a QB that's incapable of getting the offense to score 30 points in a game.
Why would we not take a QB with our first pick this year? We have the luxury of developing him and he come in like Mahomes. Oh, we don't have an Andy Reid to develop him. We have seen four years of Mariota. He's not going to miraculously become Russell Wilson this year. So, what's the advantage of getting 7-9 wins and drafting a rookie QB in 2020? Who has a better shot? A QB starting his second season after being trained and watching for a season, or a rookie thrown out there to QB a playoff team?
This is why I have soured right now on the Titans. The gamble on Mariota was a bad play.


This fourth horror special for the month tasks Out Now with Aaron and Abe with determining what horror films are for people of all ages. The idea of children's horror may seem strange, but there are a number of films that really do work for all and it's great to give families some ideas of what else is out there beyond some of the obvious choices. Aaron and Abe are joined by Brandon Peters and Maxwell Haddad for this fun discussion, which features a discussion of a number of films they have selected for this topic. Hear about some of the fun family classics, along with some unconventional picks that may have you questioning whether or not there are some more adult-themed films that do work for a younger crowd. Enjoy, as it's a topic worthy of such a conversation.

The Ottoman Age Of Exploration
Author: Giancarlo Casale
Editor: Oxford University Press

In 1517, the Ottoman Sultan Selim "the Grim" conquered Egypt and brought his empire for the first time in history into direct contact with the trading world of the Indian Ocean. During the decades that followed, the Ottomans became progressively more engaged in the affairs of this vast and previously unfamiliar region, eventually to the point of launching a systematic ideological, military and commercial challenge to the Portuguese Empire, their main rival for control of the lucrative trade routes of maritime Asia. The Ottoman Age of Exploration is the first comprehensive historical account of this century-long struggle for global dominance, a struggle that raged from the shores of the Mediterranean to the Straits of Malacca, and from the interior of Africa to the steppes of Central Asia. Based on extensive research in the archives of Turkey and Portugal, as well as materials written on three continents and in a half dozen languages, it presents an unprecedented picture of the global reach of the Ottoman state during the sixteenth century. It does so through a dramatic recounting of the lives of sultans and viziers, spies, corsairs, soldiers-of-fortune, and women from the imperial harem. Challenging traditional narratives of Western dominance, it argues that the Ottomans were not only active participants in the Age of Exploration, but ultimately bested the Portuguese in the game of global politics by using sea power, dynastic prestige, and commercial savoir faire to create their own imperial dominion throughout the Indian Ocean.

Tess recently bought a new house, so she is spending a lot of time doing home renovations. When she's not working on her house, she likes to visit family and travel.
Tess is a hydrologist which means she studies water. Her research examines how water moves, how much of it there is in the world, and how the actions of humans change how water moves in the world.
As far back as Tess can remember, she has been interested in problem-solving, including riddles and puzzles. Her great uncle worked for NASA, and he always used to bring her different kinds puzzles to solve. In grade school Tess also really enjoyed her science classes, especially physics and math.
One of the failures that Tess still struggles with right now is getting grants and papers rejected. This is particularly painful because she feels like she spends so much time working on a paper, and it's tough to get it back peppered with harsh comments and criticism.
Getting the offer for her current job as a tenure-track faculty member at Penn State was a big success for Tess. She almost didn't believe it when she first received the offer, and Tess is thrilled to be surrounded by brilliant, accomplished scientists and flattered that they saw potential in the work that she does.
A recent trip to Papua New Guinea ranks among Tess's favorite travel experiences. The people she interacted with there were wonderful and generous, the science was fascinating and worked out well, and the scenery was absolutely stunning.
Tess has had some funny and unexpected experiences doing field work, including run-ins with wild animals and attempts to catch a fish with her bare hands. She was also recently a guest on Star Talk Radio with Neil Degrasse Tyson and had a fantastic experience.
Don't be afraid of failure and trying new things, even if you don't know if it will work.
Tess's research addresses hydrologic system responses to environmental change. She is interested in developing methods to help quantify the relative impacts of human and natural drivers on hydrologic systems, developing models of the system to project future conditions and test management strategies, and using field observations and modeling to improve our understanding of fundamental physical processes. To address these goals, she uses field instrumentation and observations, numerical and statistical models, GIS, and laboratory analyses.

Oculus Launching VR Headset in China
by Megha Shah - January 13, 2018 January 13, 2018
Facebook set a goal to get a billion people using virtual reality. Now, we see the company taking a massive step towards this goal.
Oculus, the VR company that Facebook bought for $2 billion back in 2014, announced that it will launch its first VR headset in China as part of a partnership with the Chinese phone company, Xiaomi.
The new Oculus headset, called Mi VR Standalone, is essentially the same headset as Oculus Go, which was first launched in October. The key difference between the Go and the Mi VR, however, is that Xiaomi will provide all of the headset's software. The social media company will also be using Xiaomi's distribution network to make the standalone available.
Launching in tandem with Xiaomi means Facebook can tap into the Chinese market without dealing with censorship issues or storing user data and information.
Hugo Barra, Facebook's new VP of VR who joined the company last year and oversees Oculus, was a VP at Xiaomi for four years. At Xiaomi, his job was to help expand the company overseas. At Oculus, he is not only helping Facebook grow, but also helping Xiaomi create a strong strategic ally in the United States.
The new headset was unveiled at a press conference alongside Qualcomm at the Mandalay Bay casino in Las Vegas as part of the week-long CES event set to take over the city this week. Oculus currently offers just one headset, a relatively expensive, hardcore unit designed primarily for gamers and other VR enthusiasts.
While price and specifications are not yet available, the Oculus Go was launched at a price point of $199.00. Seeing that the company is on a mission, it is unlikely that the new headset would have as high a price point as the Oculus Go.

The Sultan Qaboos Cultural Center hosted a lecture by Dr. Marc Lochbaum titled "Activity Levels and Screen Time Behaviors in Omani Children" on 18 October. Dr. Lochbaum is a Professor of Sport and Exercise Psychology in the Department of Kinesiology and Sport Management at Texas Tech University. Dr. Lochbaum's research, conducted as the 2017 SQCC Research Fellow, was a study that examined objectively measured physical activity patterns, self-reported sedentary activities, and physical self-perceptions of roughly 1000 4th-grade children across Oman. This lecture summarized the study's findings, which found that objectively-measured activity levels of Omani children are similar to those from western countries, but with much less screen-time behaviors. However, compared to a few Middle East countries, Omani boys are more active than boys in the UAE and Qatar. Gender-disparities with regards to Omani children's daily physical activity, including sport team participation, should receive further attention. Following his presentation, Dr. Lochbaum answered questions from the audience.

PGR4 makes a lot of absurd decisions ranging from motorcycles to Lady Sovereign to unreadable menus to Quebec. While the core gameplay is the about the same as it has always been, the one good upgrade, the weather effects, isn't enough to maintain PGR's earlier decent showing.

Study Abroad in Morocco
For thousands of years, Morocco has benefited from the cross-cultural exchange of Berber, Arab, African, and European peoples, and their customs, learning, and gastronomy.
Today, Morocco is home to 34 million, and is one of the most stable and moderate constitutional monarchies in the Arab World. By Moroccan standards, Rabat is a fairly young city, having been established in 1146.
Located 150 miles south of Morocco's northern tip, where the Bou Regreg river meets the Atlantic Ocean, Rabat is the nation's capital and home to just over 1 million Maghariba (Moroccans). Our host site, Mohammed V University, was founded in 1957 as the first modern university in Morocco.
This program is designed for students with proficiency in Arabic, who can adhere to the Middlebury Language Pledge® while studying abroad. The Pledge shows a commitment to linguistic immersion and is the key to students' successful language development and cultural integration.

There should be a border around the images to see Polish flag does have red and white stripe.
There is no border shown and not knowing person can therefore think Polish flag is only one red stripe or red stripe and two white stripes.
@Jdlrobson Is it really? The images doesn't have any image_lazy_loaded class and still the borders does not show on mobile.
The border attribute is deprecated in html5 so the fix for this would be to move it into a style/class attribute once T199351 has been taken care of.

Rotherham child abuse: The rape and abuse of children should be a wake-up call for all of Wales and the UK
The failure of authorities to address the abuse on their doorstep is a scandal for Rotherham that must never be repeated
David WilliamsonPolitical Editor
The story of how victims of child abuse were let down by the authorities has shocked the nation - but could it happen again? (Image: Picture posed by model)
It couldn't happen here – could it?
The revelation that at least 1,400 children were abused over 16 years by gangs in Rotherham will leave parents and young people alike with a sick, knotted feeling in their stomachs.
This week's report detailed the cruelty that victims and their families suffered at the hands of paedophiles who knew how to manipulate and intimidate individuals.
Almost as shocking is the account of how the council, social services and the police failed to protect victims; reports were ignored or suppressed and victims were treated with "contempt".
According to the report, "children as young as 11 were deemed to be having consensual sexual intercourse when in fact they were being raped and abused by adults".
Rotherham child abuse revelations
Just as notorious cases of child abuse in North Wales care homes pushed the issue of the dangers facing looked-after children up the agenda across the UK, so the appalling events in Rotherham are a wake-up call for communities up and down the country.
Can Britain claim to be a civilised society when a gang is able to abuse so many young people with apparent impunity?
Alexis Jay, the former chief inspector of social work in Scotland, wrote in her report: "They were raped by multiple perpetrators, trafficked to other towns and cities in the north of England, abducted, beaten, and intimidated. There were examples of children who had been doused in petrol and threatened with being set alight, threatened with guns, made to witness brutally violent rapes and threatened they would be next if they told anyone.
"Girls as young as 11 were raped by large numbers of male perpetrators."
Prof Jay is adamant that such abuse is not a dark chapter safely in the past. Her report states it "continues to this day".
Helen Mary Jones, chief executive of Youth Cymru, was alarmed that evidence that abuse was taking place was not acted upon.
She said: "It's not as if there were no reports made about this. It's not as if families and children weren't trying to get authorities [to act].
"We need to be vigilant and make sure that's not happening in Wales."
In particular, she wants to be sure that authorities will not shy away from taking action because a young person's behaviour is deemed a "lifestyle choice".
She said: "I'd like to think that's ancient history in Wales... We have to take a long look and make sure we are providing the right kind of training and support."
Ms Jones added: "We have the age of consent at 16 for good reason. That person is not an adult – that's a young person who's being abused."
Lynne Hill of the charity Children in Wales had similar concerns, stressing the need for children to be seen as children – regardless of how confident or even hostile they may appear.
She said: "We always need to remember they are still children and young people. That is one of the key things."
Ms Hill wants to see changes as a result of the report, saying: "It's very important that when these situations come to light that people providing services for children and young people [really] do learn the lessons and take them on board."
The report describes how on two occasions fathers "tracked down their daughters and tried to remove them from houses where they were being abused" but were arrested when police were called to the scene. In other cases, victims were arrested for being drunk and disorderly but no action was taken against the rapists.
Hard questions must be asked as to how presumably intelligent individuals in different bodies failed to get a grip on an epidemic of abuse. Did a lack of training stop people seeing the atrocities taking place in front of them, or was there a blatant refusal to acknowledge the horror in their midst?
The ethnicity of the perpetrators clearly complicated the response.
According to the report: "By far the majority of perpetrators were described as 'Asian' by victims, yet throughout the entire period, councillors did not engage directly with the Pakistani-heritage community to discuss how best they could jointly address the issue. Some councillors seemed to think it was a one-off problem, which they hoped would go away.
"Several staff described their nervousness about identifying the ethnic origins of perpetrators for fear of being thought racist; others remembered clear direction from their managers not to do so."
Rotherham faced a nightmare scenario of a child abuse crisis that could not be tackled without addressing the behaviour of individuals from an ethnic group. The potential for damaging headlines and political fall-out was clear.
But the failure to adopt a frank, honest, transparent and urgent response led to suffering continuing for years. People in highly paid leadership roles failed to live up to their responsibilities and lives were wrecked as a consequence.
Among the many morals to emerge from this saga is the need for designated leaders to lead with courage and integrity, even if this results in negative publicity that makes it harder to attract investment and tourists. Failure to act will only result in even more devastating scandals.
If people do not want to have to take tough decisions, risk controversy and defend their actions they should not stand for election or apply to join the police or work in such sensitive areas.
Today, Rotherham is synonymous with a devastating story of incompetence and hard-heartedness. Demands for managers who neglected their responsibilities to be held to account will only intensify as the UK wakes up to the extent of the barbarism that was committed with apparent impunity for so long.
The victims will need support in the years ahead as they struggle to come to terms with the evil they have experienced. Mere apologies will not heal the continuing pain.
The anguish endured by these people who were manipulated, abused and raped requires that real reform – not just well-crafted words – emerges as a result of this week's report. A refusal to learn lessons would be yet another insult to those who have suffered so much.
Just as we shake our heads and ask how shamed celebrities got away with abusive behaviour for decades, it is just as frightening to ask how institutions charged with defending the vulnerable failed to save Rotherham's children in their hour of need.

Confounding variables play a significant role in many adverse seafood reactions and a clear understanding of these factors is important in properly characterizing reactions associated with potential masqueraders and mimics. Although the medical literature is replete with reviews of seafood hypersensitivity and reports of cross-reactive and newly characterized allergens, there has not been a recent effort to provide an updated overview of the several processes that may lead clinicians to draw incorrect conclusions in evaluating reported reactions to seafood. Ranging from seafood intoxications to other nonallergic or complex seafood reactions, these events can easily be misconstrued as representing a seafood IgE-mediated allergy. Among these are the more familiar topics of cross-reactivity and scombroid intoxication, and those with a still evolving understanding such as ciguatera fish poisoning and Anisakis reactions. This article seeks to provide an accessible but comprehensive summary of the relevant information surrounding these confounders in assessing adverse reactions to seafood. Such knowledge may be instrumental in unraveling complex or otherwise unclear presentations and aid clinicians in accurately evaluating and managing patients with reported seafood reactions.


After thinking out-of-the-box, setting up your team and concluding on your project design, the next thing in line is to get the word out and expect to get the person to say I'm interested in this.
Fortunately, the stage of getting that first person (or set of people) to say "I am interested" and actually pay for that product can be discouraging which is why you need a solution already prepared for you.
For startups and idealist in Nigeria, we prepared a robust pack to help any idea or business get the word out and get it's first set of customers.

Earth has an "Evil twin", and it's closer than you think...
A new NASA video makes the case that Venus is Earth's "evil twin."
The nefarious moniker is revealed to be, in a way, an apt description of why astronomers will be investigating Venus this decade. Scientists and engineers from NASA and the European Space Agency are gearing up to send three new missions to the second rock from the sun. They want to know a whole lot more about the nearby planet, which resembles Earth in so many ways, and yet is so strikingly different.
The video touches on a few nightmarish but intriguing aspects of Venus. For one, it's got a runaway greenhouse effect. The 15-mile-thick (24 kilometers) shroud of atmosphere is made of carbon dioxide and contains sulfuric acid clouds. The planet produces temperatures hot enough to melt lead. Lori Glaze, NASA's director of planetary science, said in the video that the Venusian surface can reach 900 degrees Fahrenheit (480 degrees Celsius).

At least three missions to Venus will fly within the next decade or so. There is NASA's DAVINCI, short for Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble Gases, Chemistry and Imaging, which includes two major components. First and foremost is a spacecraft that will fly by Venus, capturing data about the planet's clouds and its terrain, in addition to acting as a telecommunications hub for the mission. Second is a special descent probe, which will drop down through Venus' thick atmosphere and collect data as it journeys through the perilous environment.
Another mission, called VERITAS, will become the first NASA orbiter to visit Venus since the 1990s. VERITAS is short for Venus Emissivity, Radio Science, InSAR, Topography and Spectroscopy. The spacecraft will develop a big-picture look at Venus and its history, aiding scientists who want to know more about its volcanoes and to determine whether Venus ever had water. The Italian Space Agency (ASI), the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the French Space Agency (CNES) will also contribute to VERITAS.
Then there is the EnVision mission from the European Space Agency (ESA). The NASA-supported mission targets a launch in the early 2030s. When it reaches Venus, EnVision will try to learn why Venus became Earth's "evil twin," as the NASA video describes it. Specifically, it will study Venus' hostile atmosphere and its inner core to see how both planets could form in the same part of the solar system and with the same stuff, yet yield wildly different realities.
Perhaps soon, these missions will let us marvel at Earth's closest planetary neighbor.

High Court of Australia decides that State & Territory Work Health & Safety laws apply to civil aviation operators.
Ultra-summary:
This month, the High Court of Australia has decided that while civil aviation is typically governed only by Commonwealth Aviation Law, State and Territory occupational health and safety laws may also apply to aviation operators.
What happened:
Outback Ballooning Pty Ltd (Outback Ballooning) operates a business in Alice Springs in the Northern Territory of Australia which provides hot air balloon rides.
In July 2013, a very unfortunate incident occurred where during boarding of the hot air balloon, a passenger's scarf was sucked into an inflation fan causing the passenger to be dragged towards the metal guard and the passenger later died from the injuries sustained.
The legal lead up:
The Work Health Authority (WHA) filed a complaint against Outback Ballooning under the Northern Territory Work Health and Safety (National Uniform Legislation) Act (NT WHS Act).
The WHA alleged that Outback Ballooning failed to comply with its duty under the NT WHS Act to ensure that the health and safety of persons was not put at risk from work carried out as part of the conduct of its business.
The WHA claimed that Outback Ballooning failed to eliminate or minimise risks to boarding passengers that arose from the use of a fan to inflate the hot air balloon.
The complaint was dismissed by the Northern Territory Court of Summary Jurisdiction because it decided that the subject matter of the complaint was within the field covered by the Commonwealth aviation regulatory scheme. E.g. the Air Navigation Act 1920, Civil Aviation Act 1988 and the Civil Aviation Regulations 1988 (Cth) (Civil Aviation Law).
What was the final issue to be decided?
In short, this case was appealed all the way to the High Court of Australia (Australia's highest court) who had to decide whether preparation for take-off, including the boarding procedure, falls within the specific, exclusive subject matter of the Civil Aviation Law (being the prescription and enforcement of standards of safety in the conduct of air navigation) OR whether the NT WHS Act could also apply.
Note that the Civil Aviation Law imposes its own very specific regulatory regime for the safety of air navigation.
An important side note: under section 109 of the Australian Constitution, when a State law is inconsistent with a Commonwealth/Federal law, the Commonwealth law prevails.
What the High Court said:
By majority, the High Court held that the NT WHS Act is not inconsistent (yes an annoying double negative) with the Commonwealth Civil Aviation Law.
What does this mean for me and what does this have to do with drones?
The legal term is "shit bricks". In short, more law to worry about.
That is, both the NT WHS Act and the Civil Aviation Law may apply. Or more broadly, aviation operators, including drone operators, may be subject to the Civil Aviation Law as well as State and Territory occupational health and safety laws.
The Civil Aviation Act definition of 'aircraft' is very broad and includes hot air balloons as well as drones (technically Remotely Piloted Aircraft as would not cover land and sea faring drones).
The only way this can be changed is if the Civil Aviation Law is amended to explicitly cover the field in respect of the safety regulation of air navigation in Australia.
The full case can be accessed here.
It is important to note that each case is decided on its own facts and while this decision does create precedent, whether it applies in a later case must be decided based on the facts of any later case.

Q: Reset Pandas Cumsum for every multiple of 1000 I currently have a dataframe that looks like the below where I need to reset the cumsum everytime it crosses a multiple of 1000 ex (2000,3000...etc) and
                    Production    ID  cumsum
     2017-10-19        1054  1323217    1054
     2017-10-20           0  1323217    1054
     2017-10-21           0  1323217    1054
     2017-10-22           0  1323217    1054
     2017-10-23           0  1323217    1054

for example in the above, I need a df that looks like the below:
                 Production    ID      cumsum  adjCumsum numberGenerated
      2017-10-19        1054  1323217    1054     1000      1
      2017-10-20           0  1323217    1054     54        0
      2017-10-21           0  1323217    1054     54        0
      2017-10-22        3054  1323217    4108     4000      4
      2017-10-23           0  1323217    4018     108       0
      2017-10-23         500  1323218    500      500       0

The below, correctly resets the value every 1000 but I can't quite seem to figure out how to translate this over grouping it by ID and rounding it to the 1000s.
maxvalue = 1000

lastvalue = 0
newcum = []
    for row in df.iterrows():
        thisvalue =  row[1]['cumsum'] + lastvalue
           if thisvalue > maxvalue:
              thisvalue = 0
           newcum.append( thisvalue )
           lastvalue = thisvalue
  df['newcum'] = newcum

thanks to the answer below I'm now able to calculate cumulative number generated, but I need to calc incremental # generated.
     df['cumsum'] = df.groupby('ID')['Production'].cumsum()
     thresh = 1000
     multiple = (df['cumsum'] // thresh )
     mask = multiple.diff().ne(0)
     df['numberGenerated'] = np.where(mask, multiple, 0)
     df['adjCumsum'] = (df['numberGenerated'].mul(thresh)) + df['cumsum'] %
     thresh

    df['cumsum2'] = df.groupby('ID')['numberGenerated'].cumsum()

My initial thinking was to try something similar to:

      df['numGen1'] = df['cumsum2'].diff()

Final Edit Tested and working. Thanks for the help getting here
I was overthinking it, below is how I was able to do it:

df['cumsum'] = df.groupby('ID')['Production'].cumsum()
thresh = 1000

multiple = (df['cumsum'] // thresh )

mask = multiple.diff().ne(0)
df['numberGenerated'] = np.where(mask, multiple, 0)
df['adjCumsum'] = (df['numberGenerated'].mul(thresh)) + df['cumsum'] % thresh

df['cumsum2'] = df.groupby('ID')['numberGenerated'].cumsum()

numgen = []
adjcumsum = []

for i in range(len(df['cumsum'])):
    if df['cumsum'][i] > thresh and (df['ID'][i] == df['ID'][i-1]):
        numgenv = (df['cumsum'][i] // thresh) - (df['cumsum'][i-1] // thresh)
        numgen.append(numgenv)
    elif df['cumsum'][i] > thresh:
        numgenv = (df['cumsum'][i] // thresh)
        numgen.append(numgenv)
    else:
        numgenv = 0
        numgen.append(numgenv)

df['numgen2.0'] = numgen

A: IIUC, this simply is an integer division problem with some tricks:
thresh = 1000
df['cumsum'] = df['Production'].cumsum()

# how many times cumsum passes thresh
multiple = (df['cumsum'] // thresh )

# detect where thresh is pass
mask = multiple.diff().ne(0)

# update the number generated:
df['numberGenerated'] = np.where(mask, multiple, 0)

# then the adjusted cumsum
df['adjCumsum'] = (df['numberGenerated'].mul(thresh)) + df['cumsum'] % thresh

Output:
            Production       ID  cumsum  adjCumsum  numberGenerated
2017-10-19        1054  1323217    1054       1054                1
2017-10-20           0  1323217    1054         54                0
2017-10-21           0  1323217    1054         54                0

2017-10-23           0  1323217    4108        108                0

One of the main problems of the site is its abandonment. Abandoned space is a space which lost its initial function for which it was constructed or it is in very little use. Inside this space, there is resemblance of the life that it had once. There are trails of past times which have bad influence to its close and broad surroundings. The factories that once worked now represent a ruin of architecture. The whole complex has resembles of a post-apocalyptic city. Architecture is dying slowly.
The phenomenon of perceiving time as a single frozen moment in past represents a moment when some being, thing or object are becoming eternal. It is an instance in time when visual perception transforms into reality and becomes touchable. This perception is connected with existence of so called timeless architecture. It can be identified with the term eternal architecture because it is consisted of all needed elements for such representation. This architecture is independent, strong, fused with nature and adaptable.
Temporary architecture can be defined as mobile space or space which is being used for certain amount of time after it gets taken down and moved. The terms change and transformation are in close relation with temporary architecture. This architectural concept is best perceived through this physical, but also programmed change. Temporary architecture is often very flexible regarding the function and location. These structures are mostly conditioned by ground type and are often treated as test projects for new technologies without the pressure of being built to live forever.
Hybridization of temporary and timeless architecture is the solution for abandonment of the location of Old Sugar Refinery. The space is assemblage and time is assembler. Time, through the process, accumulates and changes elements on the given polygon which are dependent of spatial and functional program. Time is seen as a unity so that the final result cannot be realized in far future since it is in the state of constant change. The goal is to find the best solution for the location of Old Sugar Refinery with help from certain programmed spatial concept which forms through hybridization of temporary and timeless architecture. It is needed to fit present elements (timeless) with new elements (temporary) which will constantly evolve and adjust.
The main program of the project is based on typology of nanotechnology center. The main focus is research in specific area. The type of research is basic and applied. In the context of temporary and timeless hybridization, the sole purpose of research is its flexibility. The variability of program follows the variability of physical structure. Location will keep its existing objects and if needed get new ones whose goal would be satisfaction of program requirement in given moment. In time, these physical states will change, transform and adapt with its environment. Based on society needs in certain point in time, program will change accordingly. Current state is based on present needs of society in Serbia. Apart from the main program, there are additional lodgment and student buildings. In a course of time, program is expected to have cultural and sports focus with energy efficient systems like solar panels and kinetic facade.
As far as location is concern, it has two main parts. First one is the Old Sugar Refinery which stopped production twenty years ago, but some parts of it are still active. The other part is NIS Oil Refinery which is operational but not with full capacity. The main idea is to fuse new temporary architecture with existing timeless architecture and create a sophisticated program which will coexist with the current state and at the same time bring new activity to this place. Platform is lowered at the size of location and after series of criteria such as green spaces, existing buildings, operational buildings, approach, and connection. The final design represents the state in future which could happen. This is just single possible scenery which is further deducted, but there could be many more since we cannot know the exact society needs in the future. Further development of the project is its simplification and deduction through 10 phases to the state in which it is needed today.
Current program is nanotechnology center which is located at upper base. Apart from this, in the lower base is located nanotechnology exhibition space with two high rise buildings which have a purpose of housing for students and homeless people. This social experiment is also a part of temporary (students) and timeless (homeless) architecture concept.

Swedish Analog Technologies Announces Two New Pickup Arms for 2018
Michael Fremer | Oct 16, 2017
Swedish Analog Technologies today announced two new pickup arms to be introduced "...in the first quarter of 2018". The photo accompanying this news item is of the original SAT Pickup Arm because no photos of the new arms were provided at this time. In fact, this photo taken from the company's website is of an earlier version than the one currently in production.
SAT's Marc Gomez says the original arm that went into production in early 2015 will soon be phased out, with a total of 70 having been built, which, considering the price ($30,000+) is an astonishing number. The new models were designed based on "...the experience gained during these years of production and installation of the (original) arm."
Mr. Gomez says that while performance improvements are usually what drives new designs and consumer interest in them, in this case also playing a part in the new designs are "key advances....made in the protection and safe transportation of the arm assembly, adjustability, as well as easier setup of the arms."
He added "These new models will also adopt innovative design features and manufacturing techniques that will allow SAT's production to accommodate the increasing interest in our brand."
Owners of the original arm need not worry about continued support. Gomez said "a complete stock of parts will be kept to guarantee the uninterrupted enjoyment of existing SAT Pickup arm owners for many years to come".
Finally, he said, "production of components for the new models is already underway. Additional details about the design features as well as pricing will be communicated in the coming months leading up to 2018."
Fascinating economics...

I would venture to say that if he could hit the 7-8 kilodollar range for that level of performance, he'd sell more than 4 times as many arms.
I love the price/sales equations that factor in on items.
At 5K, I bet he'd rule the waves completely!
I could easily see this arm in the Tri Planar, Graham, Kuzma, Schroeder range and doing gangbusters.
Either way, I wish him success....and hope for some trickle down that actually works!

Interesting to read that in this day and age tonearms are studied and upgraded.
Way beyond my income but look gorgeous and would love to experience one. Wish them the best.
I am still thrilled and love my fidelity research FR-64fx which at one time was also beyond my means. Thank God for digital as that is the primary reason I own this Japanese masterpiece.

I can pay $30k plus for the arm but I can't hear $30k , so my Fidelity Research FR-64fx on a George Merrill circa Heirloom will just have to do as it has for 20 years.

70 sales at $30k each over a 3 year period is $700,000 per year. Assuming he ends up with half as profit (from dealer markup, cost of running a business, returns, etc) and assuming he has one employee (maybe his spouse?) that comes to $175k salary each for himself and his one other employee.
Mr. Gomez is doing this out of passion, not to get rich. Maybe if he could lower the cost but sell more he could get the numbers more favorable and a larger audience could benefit from his thoughtful engineering.

quote:"if he could hit the 7-8 kilodollar range for that level of performance, he'd sell more than 4 times as many arms"
well, if he could he would, no doubt. Obviously, he can't. This lever of performance for a quarter of the price? Why do you think it costs 30k? Just because it's possible? I dont's think so. Give him a bit more credit. Secondly: if he would have to make 4 times more arms, he would have to invest a whole bunch of cash, and since the margin now is 4 times lower, it would take him forever to cash back, if ever.

Canine ranking relationships are not about cruelty and power; they are about achievement and abilities. Competent dogs with high levels of drive and confidence step up, while deferring dogs step aside. But followers don't get the short end of the stick; they benefit from the security of having a more competent dog at the helm.
Our domestic dogs still measure themselves against other members of their group—us! Dog owners whose actions lead to positive results have willing, secure followers. But dogs may step up and fill the void or cut loose and do their own thing when their people fail to show capable leadership. When dogs are pushy, aggressive, and rude, or independent and unwilling, it's not because they have designs on the role of "master." It is more likely their owners failed to provide consistent leadership.
Dogs in training benefit from their handler's good leadership. Their education flows smoothly because they are impressed. Being in charge doesn't require you to physically dominate or punish your dog. You simply need to make some subtle changes in the way you relate to him every day.

Lamborghini-driving bitcoin trader charged with drug trafficking
By Cameron Houston and Chris Vedelago
Lamborghini-driving bitcoin trader Sam Karagiozis had the words "self made'' tattooed across his knuckles after founding Australian cryptocurrency Auscoin.
When bitcoin hit $25,000 in late 2017, the self-proclaimed "serial entrepreneur" predicted it would surge to $100,000 within a year.
But now, Mr Karagiozis has more pressing concerns than bitcoin's recent plunge in value below $4000.
Auscoin founder Sam Karagiozis.
On March 7, the 27-year-old from Bulleen was charged by Australian Federal Police with trafficking about 30 kilograms of drugs, including cocaine, MDMA and methamphetamine.
The AFP will allege that Mr Karagiozis played a key role in directing an organised crime syndicate, which used various dark web sites, bitcoin accounts and legitimate businesses for the sourcing, payment and distribution of drugs.
A joint taskforce between the AFP and financial intelligence agency AUSTRAC raided properties linked to Mr Karagiozis in Bulleen, Templestowe and Malvern, where they seized steroids, cash and cryptocurrency related items.
He was refused bail in the Melbourne Magistrates Court last week, after being charged with 14 offences relating to drug importation, trafficking and possession.
Following the arrest, AUSTRAC suspended the registration of two digital currency exchange businesses linked to Mr Karagiozis. At the same, the AFP placed restraining orders on assets worth more than $2 million, including bank accounts, real estate, cars, cash and cryptocurrency.
Auscoin founder Sam Karagiozis poses for a photo with his Bentley with personalised number plates reading MRBTC.
Mr Karagiozis' arrest last week was linked to raids on properties in Mernda and Kew in October 2017, when AFP officers seized 15.8 kilograms of MDMA, 2.6 kilograms of cocaine and more than a kilogram of ketamine.
The drugs are understood to have been ordered on the dark web and sent to Australia in the post.
Happy to describe himself as a '"hustler", Mr Karagiozis has been an enthusiastic spruiker of bitcoin and other cyptocurrencies at investment seminars around Australia.
Sam Karagiozis (centre) poses for a photo with Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios (l) and his brother Christos Kyrgios.
He has rolled out a national network of automatic teller machines that exchange cryptocurrency, while his Greek-themed restaurants in St Kilda, Thornbury and Far North Queensland allow patrons to purchase souvlaki with bitcoin.
His 'rags to riches' sales pitch would often make reference to his tough upbringing in Melbourne's northern suburbs.
"For me, being self-made means I started with nothing," Mr Karagiozis said on social media.
He left school at 15 and worked at a McDonalds restaurant, which he credits for his "relentless work ethic". He claims to have only read one book in his life - Donald Trump's The Art of the Deal.
Around the same time, Mr Karagiozis developed a passion for weight training, according to his online profile.
"Sam would often travel two hours return to buy protein powder from the Melbourne CBD and sell them to other employees at McDonald's. The purpose of this was to cover the cost of Sam's supplements which allowed him to train."
Sam Karagiotis has "self made" tattooed across his knuckles.
At 16, he started his first business, Hellas Nutrition, before moving into the security industry and later, property development.
In 2017, Mr Karagiozis founded Auscoin Group, with bold plans to launch his own cryptocurrency and raise $30 million from the initial coin offering (ICO).
He was also trading bitcoin, which peaked in value in December 2017. Mr Karagiozis joined clients Nick Kyrgios and older brother Christos in the players box at the 2018 Australian Open.
But his scheme to install 1200 Auscoin ATMs in shopping centres around Australia and Asia foundered when the offering raised less than $2 million. Around 30 Australian shopping centres currently have Auscoin ATMs.
His personal fortune took a battering, losing more than $5 million in 2018.
Unperturbed, he continued to flaunt his wealth. His stable of luxury cars included a Lamborghini Gallardo and a Bentley Continental with personalised plates "MR BTC".
Last year, Mr Karagiozis even launched his own fashion range that included hoodies with "Team no sleep" and "All or nothing" emblazoned on the back.
As the value of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies plummeted, he urged his clients and social media followers to ignore negative sentiment.
"It's Monday and I have one piece of advice for all you hustlers out there! F**k the Haters! Get out there and take what's yours. Outwork the competition, help others, stay humble," he said in a facebook post in November 2018.
Mr Karagiozis will face the Melbourne Magistrates Court in June.
AFP Detective Superintendent Paul Hopkins said targeting assets allowed authorities to remove the profit motivation that underpins most criminal activity.

"When you take the profit out of crime, you hit offenders where it hurts most," Detective Superintendent Hopkins said.

Citizens Seek To Make New Friends Across Party Lines On Rainy Sunday In Oconee County
***Oconee Progressives And Democrats Are Sponsors***
Twenty-eight people turned out at the Oconee County Library in Watkinsville on last Sunday's rainy afternoon to exchange nonpartisan conversation with the goals of getting to know each other and of building community.
The sponsors, the Oconee Progressives and Oconee Democrats, had reached out across party lines with their invitations, and they were successful.
Oconee County Commissioner Chuck Horton, a Republican, attended, as did Kate McDaniel, secretary of the Oconee County Republican Party, and Marcus Wiedower, who ran unsuccessfully as a Republican in the special election for House District 117 representative last November.
The event started at 3 p.m. and lasted just an hour, but several people were around a half hour later, continuing the conversations started during the structured part of the session.
Organizer Of Event
While the Oconee Progressives and Oconee Democrats sponsored the event, Pat Priest, long active in local Democratic politics, was the event organizer.
"The two groups invite everyone in the community, including local Republicans and Independents, to join in fun and quick conversations in pairs in response to prompts given over a public address system," Priest said in an email message she sent out promoting the event.
"The hour-long event will work like a speed dating set-up, with new pairings of people conversing for each question provided," Priest said.
Fourteen pairs participated in the first session, but the number of pairs changed during the hour, as others who came later joined in the discussions.
Just before the 4 p.m. ending, 17 groups were participating, and one of those was made up of 3 adults and two children.
Local Democrats
Among the Democratic participants was Deborah Gonzalez, who now represents the 117th House District in the General Assembly, and Dan Matthews, a member of the Watkinsville City Council.
Watkinsville Council races are nonpartisan, but Matthews long has been involved with the Democratic Party in Oconee County.
Chalis Montgomery, running as a Democrat in U.S. Congressional District 10, was present, as was Lisa Lott, who is running for Superior Court Judge for the position now held by Regina Quick.
That race is nonpartisan.
Women dominated the session, but, when 17 groups were participating, nine men were included in the total of 35 individuals involved in the discussions.
Two Ministers And Questions
Sheila Hunter, minister at Watkinsville First Christian Church, 4 North Main Street, Watkinsville, and J. Ricardo Smith, pastor at Browns Chapel Baptist Church, 1030 Brown Chapel Road, outside Bishop, read out the questions to the participants.
Examples included "What were/are your grandparents like?" and "What were you like in high school?"
Conversation was stopped by the ringing of loud bells after about 4 minutes, and participants found another partner for the next question.
During discussions, the noise became loud, making the conversations in the pairs quite private.
I attended the event and did participate in one of the conversations, discussing who has been a strong role model in my life. I named my father.
I shot video during much of the session and have edited it into the short clip below to give some sense of the gathering.
At the end of the session, Tracy Wyatt from Oconee Progressives thanked those who participated.
I used her comments without editing, starting at 1:36 in the video. Organizer Priest is in the green jacket at her side.
Oconee Progressives in an informal group started by Wyatt and three other Oconee County women concerned about, among other things, the level of discourse in the county in the wake of the inauguration of Donald Trump as president a year ago.
Wyatt talks briefly about Oconee Progressives in her closing comments.

I do worry that this set is more concerned with manners than about good, unionized jobs.

Q: CallLog.Calls Query By Date I am querying CallLog.Calls content provider for call details. Everything works fine except when I try to query by dates. That is, to get call details for a particular date or date range etc. I know the date are stored as long (millisecond format) so I tried to convert the date first and then query by it, but I must be doing something wrong here. Here's the query I am running, pls note that it works well when I remove the "WHERE DATE =" part or replace it by something like "WHERE TYPE=" etc. So, how do I run a query to get call details for a date or date range? Any help on this? Thanks.
Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(CallLog.Calls.CONTENT_URI, null,
               CallLog.Calls.DATE + "<=?",
                new String[] { String.valueOf(dateSTR)}, ORDER_BY);
        startManagingCursor(c);

A: This is how i do it:
Cursor c = contentResolver.query(CallLog.Calls.CONTENT_URI,
                new String[] { CallLog.Calls.DATE, CallLog.Calls.DURATION,
                        CallLog.Calls.NUMBER, CallLog.Calls._ID },
                CallLog.Calls.DATE + ">?",
                new String[] { String.valueOf(resetDate.getTime())},
                CallLog.Calls.NUMBER + " asc");

resetDate is a Date variable, set to the beginning of the period i want to cover.
