Q: Lazy Loading navigation properties returns 'System.InvalidOperationException' I've been migrating a VB.net application using EF6 to a C# .Net Core app using EF-Core 3.0. I've always been using EF as DB-First. With EF-Core, I need to specify the way I want to load my values. Because I often need to access many navigation properties (links to other table through FKs), I'd rather to a Lazy Load than managing Eager Loads. But whenever I wanna do so, i get this error on the naviguation properties :
((Castle.Proxies.WillyDemandesProxy)willyDemandes).IdPartNavigation
threw an exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' :
Error generated for warning 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Infrastructure.LazyLoadOnDisposedContextWarning: An attempt was made to lazy-load navigation property 'IdPartNavigation' on entity type 'WillyDemandesProxy' after the associated DbContext was disposed.'. This exception can be suppressed or logged by passing event ID 'CoreEventId.LazyLoadOnDisposedContextWarning' to the 'ConfigureWarnings' method in 'DbContext.OnConfiguring' or 'AddDbContext'.
Table WillyDemandes is linked by foreign key to table Parts using WillyDemande.Id_Part and Parts.ID.
When you scaffold your DbContext using EF-Core DB-First, it creates virtual properties called "Navigation Properties" in order for you to easily get access to the linked info in other tables.
The exception is thrown whenever you try to access IDPartNavigation. Here's an example :

It also happens not 100% of the time.
Any ideas?

The error seems to be related to the range of DbContext. It happens when you combine USING and PROXIES.
I've written another definition of my function but this time passing the connection through parameters instead of creating it inside the function with USING. The proxies are then available wherever DbContext is alive.
    static public WillyDemandes GetFirst(Info_IndusContext conn)
{

    WillyDemandes willyDemandes;

        willyDemandes = conn.WillyDemandes
            .Where(x => x.Statut == Statuts.EnTest.ToString() && x.Username == Environment.UserName)
            //.Include(x=>x.IdPartNavigation)
            .OrderBy(x => x.Priority)
            .ThenBy(x => x.Id)
            .FirstOrDefault();

    if (willyDemandes != null)
    {
        willyDemandes.Statut = Statuts.EnTraitement.ToString();
        willyDemandes.ServerName = Environment.MachineName;
        willyDemandes.DateDebut = DateTime.Now;
        conn.SaveChanges();
        conn.Entry(willyDemandes).GetDatabaseValues();
        conn.Entry(willyDemandes).Reload();
    }

    return willyDemandes;

}

A: So I found a way to get through this but I doubt it is the best of solutions.
Basically what I've done is that I've created a ContextProvider Class that allows me to create 1 Info_IndusContext accessible by everybody. I also removed all the USING statements of my controllers.
I've also abadonned using LazyLoading and started using EagerLoading as you may noticed in the GetFirst function down below.
Thoughts?
ContextProvider
using WillyServer.Models;
namespace WillyServer.Controllers
{
    public static class ContextProvider
    {
        public static Info_IndusContext db = new Info_IndusContext();
    }
}

WillyDemandesController.GetFirst
    static public WillyDemandes GetFirst()
    {

   WillyDemandes willyDemandes = ContextProvider.db.WillyDemandes
                .Include(x => x.IdPartNavigation)
                .Include(x => x.WillyMachines)
                .Where(x => x.Statut == Statuts.EnTest.ToString() && x.Username == Environment.UserName)
                .OrderBy(x => x.Priority)
                .ThenBy(x => x.Id)
                .FirstOrDefault();

        if (willyDemandes != null)
        {
            willyDemandes.Statut = Statuts.EnTraitement.ToString();
            willyDemandes.ServerName = Environment.MachineName;
            willyDemandes.DateDebut = DateTime.Now;
            ContextProvider.db.SaveChanges();
        }

        return willyDemandes;

James Brown feels good...
Maria (Natalie Wood dubbed by Marni Nixon) feels pretty...
D.A.N
GOLD Beach Boys
SILVER Buddy
BRONZE Temptations
TIN Ronettes
Larry, interestingly my theme was similar when I used Buddy's 'Wishing'.
Been a tough month for me but listening to lots of music.
Thanks for the votes, Lisa & D.A.N. And the emotional videos, Lisa and t.
One I've never heard before: The Zombies, "The Way I Feel Inside", Begin Here, 1965 (it begins and ends quietly)
And beautiful music with grownup, possibly offensive lyrics:
Elliott Smith, "I Didn't Understand", XO, 1998
Plus R.E.M., "It's the End of the World As We Know It (and I Feel Fine)", Document, 1987
PS -- That's an interesting site, Lisa. I saw this one:
"When the end of the world comes, I want to be in Cincinnati because it's always 20 years behind the times" -- attributed to Mark Twain
But it looks like it was a German joke that originally referred to Bavaria, not Cincinnati. I didn't know the Germans had any jokes.
And what is fast approaching? Monday.
bonnie -- that's what you get for living in the future!
Meanwhile, the clock is ticking here in the past. Only 13 voters so far and Monday is coming.
Warren Zevon, "Excitable Boy", Excitable Boy, 1978
PS -- This one plays in the US:
Verden McCutcheon
Season 7 Week 14..Heavy Mental..
1)The Beach Boys.....when I get tired of GOK this is my next fav from PS
2)The Temptations....Always enjoyed this track from a great vocal group
3)The Ronettes.........Definitely got the Wall of sound going down
4)Buddy Holly......Probably the best song I had to put the tin label on in along while
Excellent theme and songs Larry !
Cantina Margarita
here's my selection:
1. The Beach Boys, "You Still Believe in Me"
(what a surprise har har)
Which one do I like least on the original Pet Sounds album? I praised Our Master with so many sweet words here, but with this one I'm not well at all. Pretends to be self-reflective, but in the end it appears kind of false-faced. Although I'm sure that at this point of his career, Brian didn't want it to be more than a sentimental love song – I just don't grant these lyrics to his young ego. But what I can't wait for, of course, is to hear this stone-old beautiful song being performed by a 74 yr old Brian, after all that's been happening to him. Will be a tearful moment. Time capsula idea again.
And what a tune. And what a lead vocal. Richly enough pros to select it my #1 this week.
2. The Temptations, "Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)"
In the early 1970s, I started reading the Bravo magazine. Not due to the Dr Sommer series, merely because of the charts listings. And I have dim reflection of spotting this song at US No. 1 position. In Bravo land, we've been digging that style, too, but preferred this one ...
3. Buddy Holly, "True Love Ways"
I like that guy, though I've never gone deep catalogue with his music. I simply tend to pay respect to artists that my favourite artists like(d).
4. The Ronettes, "I Wonder"
I'm not particularly into that Wall Of Sound idea, represented by songs like this one. Turn the overdosed reverb effect down, and you have a very simple song in most cases. Also, I could never be amazed by "Be My Baby". It's like too much sugar in the pudding.
What I do like about Spector production style, is the later concept of orchestral overdubs to catchy British rock hymns, George H's. "All things Must Pass" album stands above all.
An inspiring week. Thank you Larry, well done.
Larry -- hopefully the lack of responses thus far is because you gave four tough choices to sort out, not so much due to lack of interest. (Am I right, folks?)
Here's another alternate to fire up those yet to vote. Let's take pity on poor, rich Paul McCartney. It seems people laugh at him when he's feelin' mighty low:
Thanks for your votes and kind words, Verden and Cantina M. (and the excellent song).
Thinking about "You Still Believe In Me" this week got me to rank the eleven non-instrumentals on Pet Sounds, so it's interesting to see the variations in opinion. I put it closer to #11 than #1.
As this week's battle grows long in the tooth, two more to unleash:
The Everly Brothers, "So Sad (to Watch Good Love Go Bad)", live from their 1983 reunion concert (could it be possible this song had a personal meaning for them at this point?)
My Morning Jacket, "Believe (Nobody Knows)", Waterfall, 2015
Hi Lisa -- I didn't see you there. Well, we've got 15 voters so far. Who knows what the night will bring? (It's a good day for the beach around here.)
"I'm Down" doesn't play in the US, but this one does, with a few introductory remarks from the young Sir Paul:
One I've had in reserve in case things go south:
The Animals, "Don't Bring Me Down", 1966 (written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King)
Tom Tobben
Weighing in with my votes for the week:
Gold -- "You Still Believe in Me", Beach Boys. Just one of a number of stellar songs on Pet Sounds, but it stands above the other fine songs in this week's battle. Can't wait to see Brian and his band perform the album in its entirety this summer. Great melody, lovely instrumental and vocal arrangements, and I love the bicycle horn (or whatever it is) interspersed through the song.
Silver -- "Just My Imagination", Temptations. What a classic Temptations ballad -- it reached #1 on both the Top 40 and R&B charts in the US in 1971 and is still one of their most popular songs. I grew up with the omni-present Motown classics on the radio in the 60s and 70s, when Berry Gordy and his large stable of artists married R&B with pop to create the Motown sound, so lots of fond memories of those songs, including this one.
Bronze -- "True Love Ways", Buddy Holly. Beautiful ballad from one of the legends and major influences from the early rock and roll era. Bonnie, I have to disagree with you about the sax in this song -- it may not be "great sax" but it's at least "decent sax", and even decent sax is better than no sax at all, as the saying goes.
A couple summers ago, my wife and I saw a stellar musical stage version of The Buddy Holly Story. The guy who played and sang the Buddy Holly lead role was quite impressive on both the ballads and rockers, and he could really play the guitar too. Though Holly created some lovely ballads (such as this one, True Love Ways, Everyday, Wishing, Heartbeat, etc.), I really prefer his up-tempo rock and roll hits (such as Peggy Sue, Maybe Baby, Rave On, Well...All Right, Love's Made A Fool of You, etc.) Here's a lesser-known one, for example:
Tin -- "I Wonder", Ronettes. I'm generally a fan of both the Ronettes and of Phil Spector's "wall of sound" hits. But this one sounds too derivative and doesn't carry the originality and punch of their best songs, such as "Be My Baby", "(The Best Part of) Breaking Up", or "Walking in the Rain".
Here's a few more old songs from the 60s and 70s that explore this week's stated themes, and which haven't been posted yet to my recollection:
And, dipping back into an old, lesser-known doo-wop nugget from the early 60s:
Finally, this old 60s mental phenomena novelty tune, which found a second life years later through Dr. Demento:
Apologies if any of these have already been posted.
Fun, wide-open battle theme this week, Larry!
Hi Larry,
Here are my votes.
Gold - True Love Ways – Buddy Holly
Silver - You Still Believe in Me – The Beach Boys
Bronze - I Wonder – The Ronettes
Tin - Just My Imagination – The Temptations
Deb#1
Very hard week for me, Larry, I really like them all.
Gold – "You Still Believe in Me" The Beach Boys
Silver – "True Love Ways" Buddy Holly
Bronze – "Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)" The Temptations
Tin – "I Wonder" The Ronettes
A few more cerebral ruminations for the week:
"What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
No, not just for some but for everyone."
Thanks for your votes, tom, graciegirl and Deb. You've brought us up to 19 voters so far. I'll probably let the voting continue for another 12 hours (until Monday at noon in this time zone).
Tom -- I did post "Rave On" earlier in the week and thought about having it compete, since it's a great song and fits the theme quite well, but decided that "True Love Ways" fit better with the other songs (a completely subjective opinion, of course).
"Imagination" by the Quotations was a new one for me. It looks like it made a few charts in late 1961 and early 1962 in the Northeast and Cleveland.
Deb -- I thought about using "All I Have To Do Is Dream" also -- it's one of my favorites -- but it's a favorite song I avoid listening to (for sentimental reasons).
Here's one of several Roy Orbison songs that also would have done well this week:
"Running Scared", 1961
Only 18 voters so far; I miscounted.

Bill Cosby loses appeal of sex assault conviction
One of Bill Cosby's victims has lauded a US judge's decision not to overturn the disgraced entertainer's sexual assault conviction, saying it was a "reminder that no one is above the law".
News Corp Australia NetworkDecember 11, 20197:59am
Bill Cosby's sentence appeal rejected
Judges in Pennsylvania have unanimously rejected Bill Cosby's appeal of his 2018 sexual assault conviction, upholding a verdict that represents one of the most high-profile convictions of the 'Me Too' movement. The judges rejected arguments that he was denied a fair trial last year. Mr Cosby was convicted of sexually assaulting and giving Andrea Constand pills outside his home in 2004. The 82-year-old comedian and actor, is serving a 3-10 year sentence in a maximum security facility outside Philadelphia.

Bill Cosby has lost his bid to overturn his sexual assault conviction, as an appeals court ruled in the first celebrity trial of the #MeToo era.
In its ruling, the Superior Court upheld the right of prosecutors to call other accusers to bolster their case — the same issue that was fought over in pre-trial hearings before movie mogul Harvey Weinstein's sexual assault trial.
"This decision is a reminder that no one is above the law," Andrea Constand, the victim in Cosby's case, said.
Cosby's lawyers in his appeal said the suburban Philadelphia judge had improperly allowed the five women to testify at last year's retrial although he'd let just one woman testify at the first trial in 2017.

But the Superior Court said Pennsylvania law allows the testimony if it shows Cosby had a "signature" pattern of drugging and molesting women.
"Here, the (prior bad act) evidence established appellant's unique sexual assault playbook," the court said, noting that "no two events will ever be identical."
The court went on to say that the similarities were no accident.
"Not only did the (prior bad act) evidence tend to establish a predictable pattern of criminal sexual behaviour unique to appellant, it simultaneously tended to undermine any claim that appellant was unaware of or mistaken about victim's failure to consent to the sexual contact that formed the basis of the aggravated indecent assault charges," the panel said in its ruling.

Lawyers for Cosby had argued eight issues on appeal, including the judge's decision to let prosecutors use portions of a deposition he gave in the accuser's related civil suit. His lawyers also argued that he had a binding promise from a former prosecutor that he would never be charged in the case and could testify freely at a deposition in accuser Andrea Constand's related lawsuit.
The appeals court rejected those arguments and upheld the judge's classification of Cosby as a sexually violent predator.
Cosby, 82, can now ask the state Supreme Court to consider his appeal.
He has been serving a three- to 10-year prison term for the 2004 encounter at his suburban Philadelphia home, which he deemed consensual.
He was arrested a decade later, after a federal judge unsealed portions of the deposition at the request of the media and new prosecutors reopened the criminal case.

The Superior Court panel, in arguments in August, asked why Cosby's lawyers didn't get a written immunity agreement and have it approved by a judge, instead of relying on an oral promise.
"This is not a low-budget operation we were operating here. They had an unlimited budget," said Superior Court Judge John T. Bender, who questioned whether any court would have approved the deal.
Judge Steven O'Neill's decision to let the other accusers testify came after more than 60 women accused Cosby of sexual misconduct. Prosecutors asked to call 19 of them. Superior Court Judge John Bender appeared to agree with O'Neill's logic in letting some take the stand.
"This decision is a reminder that no one is above the law," Andrea Constand, the victim in Cosby's case, said. Picture: Getty Images/AFPSource:AFP
"The reality of it is, he gives them drugs and then he sexually assaults them. And in four out of the five, those were in mentor situations," Judge Bender said.
Kristen L. Weisenberger, representing Cosby, said one of the women wasn't even sure she was sexually assaulted. However, prosecutors said, that's how Cosby planned it.
O'Neill had allowed just one other accuser at Cosby's first trial in 2017, when the jury deadlocked. Cosby's lawyers called his later decision to let more women testify arbitrary and prejudicial.
The long-married Cosby, once beloved as "America's Dad" for his TV role as Dr. Cliff Huxtable on the hugely popular sitcom The Cosby Show, has acknowledged having sexual contact with a string of younger women, many of whom came to him for career advice and took alcohol or pills he offered them.

He and his lawyers and agents have suggested that many of the accusers were gold diggers seeking money or fame. He told a news outlet in November that he expects to serve the maximum 10-year sentence if he loses the appeal, because he would never express remorse to the parole board.
Cosby agreed to pay Ms Constand, a former university women's basketball team manager, about $US3.4 million ($A5 million) to settle her lawsuit. His insurance company, following his conviction, settled at least nine other defamation lawsuits filed by accusers for undisclosed sums.

Ms Constand, who first went to police about Cosby in 2005, thanked Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele for fighting "tirelessly throughout two trials and the appeals process" for her.
A former professional basketball player turned massage therapist, she is launching a foundation in her native Canada to help other sexual assault victims with their healing. She is also starting to work with police groups to help them understand the process that victims go through.
She described herself as "pleased and relieved" the verdict was upheld.

High Court affirms that it cannot force declaration from non-gatherings to arbitration agreements.
Articles / High Court affirms that it cannot force declaration from non-gatherings to arbitration agreements.
Nazir Alam
The courts of England and Wales can make a few sorts of request on the side of Arbitration. The procedures under Section 44 of the Arbitration Act, including orders for:
the taking of evidence;
the preservation of property; and
interim injunctive relief.
In any case, the courts' forces under this area constrained. The restrictions of Section 44(2) evident in that the courts don't have a general capacity to request an outsider. Not involved with the Arbitration understanding.
The gatherings were co-venturers in an oil field in Central Asia. Also associated with a discretion continuing situated in New York. Throughout that procedure, the spotlight fell on the idea of specific installments made by the first and second litigants. However, which was under a creation sharing understanding (PSA). Further, The inquiry emerged concerning whether those sums were deductible. While ascertaining what amount was because of the petitioners regarding their 15% enthusiasm for the field.
The inquirers allows authorization to apply to an English court to take proof from a person in England. They should have worked for the counterparties as the lead business moderator of the PSA.
The observer and the litigants restricted this application on the premise that the court had no locale under Section 44. The Arbitration Act to request a non-gathering to the mediation understanding. The litigants depended on the thinking of two earlier Commercial Court decisions tending to powers under Section 44 of the demonstration – to be specific, Cruz City v Unitech ([2015] 1 All ER (Comm) 305) and DTEK v Morozov ([2017] EWHC 94 (Comm)).
Going Ahead
The inquirers depended on a discourse on the Arbitration Act co-composed by Queen's Counsels Robert Merkin and Louis Flannery, who reprimanded those decisions and contended that the ability to arrange the taking of proof stretches out to non-gatherings to the intervention understanding. In like manner, the candidates tried to recognize the referred to experts because:
Section 44(2)(a) permits orders to be made against non-parties, even if other subsections of Section 44(2) do not, as it refers to taking witnesses' evidence; and
the difficulties with making orders against non-parties in Cruz City and DTEK had arisen from the need to serve the applications out of the jurisdiction; there was no such issue in this case because the third defendant was resident in England.
The High Court excused the application, having discovered that it didn't have purview under Section 44 of the Arbitration Act to request a non-gathering to the assertion understanding. The two contentions progressed by the candidate excused.
Does Section 44(2)(a) extend to non-parties even if other subsections of Section 44 do not?
Mr. Justice Foxton concluded that like other subsections of Section 44, Section 44(2)(a) does not extend to non-parties to an arbitration agreement for the following reasons:
Nothing in the wording and structure of Section 44 supports the differential treatment of Section 44(2).
Section 44(2)(a) does not give the courts of England and Wales the power to compel witnesses to give evidence but instead allows foreign courts to issue letters of request to the courts of England and Wales. The latter may or may not then choose to exercise their coercive powers over a potential witness.
The use of Section 44(2)(a) for an application for coercive measures may raise additional complications over and above those which arise in other subsections of the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR). If the courts' power under Section 44(2)(a) is the "same power of making orders" as they have "for and about legal proceedings," this might suggest that they have powers equivalent to CPR 34.8 (evidence by deposition). However, an order under CPR 34.8 does not have a coercive effect or require the witness to attend. While Section 43 of the Arbitration Act provides for securing the attendance of a witness for an arbitration hearing, it is limited to ensuring the audience before the tribunal rather than before an examiner and only when "the arbitral proceedings conducted in England and Wales.
Does the way that administration out of the ward isn't required give n essential purpose of differentiation for this situation?
Foxton inferred that it did not affect that the observer was an occupant in England and that it was pointless to serve the application out of the ward. The ability to request a non-party was found not to exist under Section 44, not because it was difficult to help those gatherings out of the purview.
Even though Section 44 of the Arbitration Act furnishes the courts with forces to help mediation procedures – even those situated outside the English purview – this judgment affirms that those forces are constrained. The High Court for this situation followed Cruz City and DTEK, giving clear direction that orders under Section 44(2)(a) can't be allowed against a non-gathering to an assertion understanding. Given the consensual idea of discretion and the way that authorities, for the most part, don't have purview over non-gatherings to an Arbitration understanding, the situation of the court is by all accounts sensible.

I knew I wanted to become an educator since I was inspired by my very own 4th grade teacher but what I didn't know then was that life would throw me other passions I would be able to follow.

Q: variables duplicated in python threading class I'm very new to python.. I'm writing a class to create multiple threads for an  application that I'm building for my Raspberry Pi (hence the GPIO pins). I have this basically working by pulling some data from a DB, creating an instance of the class which runs a thread, passing two variables to it (deviceGPIO and duration), and pausing some time.
Basically the problem is that my thread instance is duplicating for the second two times it's run, despite unique values being pulled from the DB and passed to the class. I'm a little confused around the use of kwargs and args in general so would appreciate any help in this space..
The class / thread code:
class MyThreadWithArgs(threading.Thread):

        def __init__(self, deviceGPIO="default value", duration="default value", group=None, target=None, name=None,
                     args=(), verbose=None, **kwargs):
            threading.Thread.__init__(self, group=group, target=target, name=name,
                                      verbose=verbose)

            self.deviceGPIO = deviceGPIO
            self.duration = duration

            return

        def run(self):

            logging.debug('Current GPIO pin: %s', deviceGPIO)

            #pause for some time...
            time.sleep(duration)

        logging.debug('ending')

        return

Calling the instance:
The following is called within the results of a DB query (eg each class is created based on each DB row returned)
for row in rows:

    duration = int(row["programDuration"])
    deviceGPIO = int(row["deviceGPIO"])

    t = MyThreadWithArgs(args=(), kwargs={deviceGPIO, duration})
    t.start()

Results:
The following is the results (python logging output)
(Thread-1  ) Current GPIO pin: 12
(Thread-2  ) Current GPIO pin: 16
(Thread-3  ) Current GPIO pin: 16
(Thread-1  ) ending
(Thread-2  ) ending
(Thread-3  ) ending

I've tried clearing the variable passed to the class, without success, as the 2nd two instances are displaying duplicated results (despite having unique DB records being passed to the class).
Am I missing something simple here?
UPDATE
I updated the script using the feedback provided, although it still continued to display the duplicate values despite my changes. In the end I used the following code, although rather than using the deviceGPIO variable, I used self.deviceGPIO as the variable. I'm not sure why this worked - I'm keen to understand where I went wrong, and why using self.deviceGPIO has made a difference compared to the original variable with the same value.
class MyThreadWithArgs(threading.Thread):
    def __init__(self, deviceGPIO="default value", duration="default value", **kwargs):
        threading.Thread.__init__(self, **kwargs)

        self.deviceGPIO = deviceGPIO
        self.duration = duration

    def run(self):

        logging.debug('Current GPIO pin: %s', self.deviceGPIO)

        #pause for some time...
        time.sleep(duration)

        logging.debug('ending')

A: You are not passing in your variables correctly.
t = MyThreadWithArgs(args=(), kwargs={deviceGPIO, duration})

creates two new keyword arguments; effectively setting the kwargs argument of the __init__ method to:
{'args': (), 'kwargs': {<deviceGPIO value>, <duration value>}}

with the kwargs value being a set, not a dictionary.
In the __init__ method you are using the default values for deviceGPIO and duration instead, because you never gave specific arguments for those two values.
Use:
t = MyThreadWithArgs(deviceGPIO=deviceGPIO, duration=duration)

to create your thread subclass instances, passing in the deviceGPIO and duration values to the keyword arguments explicitly.
If you don't plan on specifying the rest of the Thread.__init__ arguments, you can leave those out altogether, as the Thread class itself already has defaults for these:
class MyThreadWithArgs(threading.Thread):
        def __init__(self, deviceGPIO="default value", duration="default value"):
            threading.Thread.__init__(self)

            self.deviceGPIO = deviceGPIO
            self.duration = duration

Note that the return is not required here either. You can always add arguments back in, or just use:
class MyThreadWithArgs(threading.Thread):
        def __init__(self, deviceGPIO="default value", duration="default value", **kwargs):
            threading.Thread.__init__(self, **kwargs)

            self.deviceGPIO = deviceGPIO
            self.duration = duration

to pass any extra keyword arguments on to the Thread._init__() method, allowing you to create a new MyThreadWithArgs() instance adding in keyword arguments such as group or name as needed.

Sharks Game Recaps
Ryan Miller stones the Sharks in the third period as Buffalo defeats San Jose 1-0

Share All sharing options for: Ryan Miller stones the Sharks in the third period as Buffalo defeats San Jose 1-0
ANAHEIM, CA - FEBRUARY 29: Goaltender Ryan Miller #30 of the Buffalo Sabres is congratulated by Thomas Vanek #26 after shuting out the Anaheim Ducks 2-0 at Honda Center on February 29, 2012 in Anaheim, California. (Photo by Jeff Gross/Getty Images)
For the second straight night Ryan Miller looked unbeatable, stopping 39 shots tonight victory after racking up 43 saves in Anaheim only 24 hours before.
It hasn't been par for the course this season for Miller and the similarly struggling Sabres, but he looked all-world tonight in the final frame when San Jose poured 17 pucks to the net in a frantic bid to send the game to overtime.
Drew Stafford scored the lone goal of the night to give Buffalo their 1-0 victory.
San Jose struggled out of the gate in a pretty lethargic first period characterized by nothing in particular. They held their own defensively against Buffalo for the most part, with one of the few mistakes ending up in the back of the net. A soft pass up the middle by Brent Burns in the neutral zone quickly went the other way, with Tyler Ennis setting up Drew Stafford in the middle of the zone on the ensuing 3v2. Stafford's slap shot beat Niemi low to give the Sabres a 1-0 lead that would stand for the rest of the game.
"He [Ryan Miller] played excellent so we'll give him credit for that. I thought we started slow in the first period, got better in the second, and really played well in the third," Sharks Assistant Coach Matt Shaw said. "At that point, he was feeling it, and we struggled to beat him."
San Jose looked sluggish in the first 10 minutes or so of the second period as well, but a better effort at the end of the frame gave them some momentum that would carry over into the third period. Their first power play of the evening, following a Ville Leino holding call in the offensive zone against Brent Burns, had a mere one shot on net but was characterized with some good puck movement and near misses. It was a turning point of sorts for the Sharks as they would go on to heavily outplay Buffalo until the final whistle.
The third period was all San Jose, with the Sharks looking like an immensely dangerous team for nearly the entire 20 minutes. San Jose outshot Buffalo 17-5 in that frame, and while some of that can be characterized by scoring effects, a large part of it also had to do with their ability to find opportunities off the boards. San Jose was merciless on the Sabres along the wall and behind the net, taking full advantage of the third period that tends to kill teams playing on back to backs.
Dan Boyle and Joe Pavelski notched a pair of golden opportunities at around the 14:00 minute mark that Miller somehow managed to keep out, and TJ Galiardi made a brilliant individual move to center a pass that Miller pokechecked away. Ryane Clowe, fresh off a goal the night before, also had some chances that Miller managed to keep out.
Brent Burns was also a noticeable force out on the ice in the final frame, jumping into the play and using his immense strength and size to control the puck low in the zone. It obviously has a lot to do with getting the greenlight from the coaching staff to jump into the play, but it seems as if Burns truly shines the brightest with the team down by a goal in the third period.
In essence, it was everything you could have reasonably expected from a Sharks team fighting to get a much needed win.
As has been the story for San Jose during the last month however, the late push wouldn't produce a goal. And the Sharks, who let an opportunity to leapfrog back into first place in the Pacific tonight following a Phoenix loss, extended their scoreless streak to 118:38 following their 1-0 slugfest with Philadelphia on Tuesday.
San Jose will face St. Louis Blues, a team they have yet to win against this season, on Saturday night.
And their playoff hopes, while not truly in jeopardy at this moment in time, continue to look more and more tenuous as the season marches on in March.

Newchurch Village > History > Farming the Marsh > A Life on the Land
A Life on the Land: Reminiscences of Charles Homewood (born 1917)
The first thing I can remember is a fire at the barn, the corn stacks and cow sheds on the other side of the road to Wills Farm. It belonged to my father and was in the dry summer of 1921. The horse drawn fire engine from Bilsington had only a hand pump, which used the water from the spring well close to Wills Farmhouse. All the firemen could do was spray the stacks and sheds.
About this time a tower was built in the field opposite the new village hall on Brian Wimble's farm, and was nearly 200 feet high It was a listening tower with a small hut connected to the big hut where the children's play area is now. After school I never had time to play. When I got home there were the sheep pots to turn over so they would be dry when I fed the sheep in the morning, the milk shed to clean out and the pigs to feed. Sometimes after tea I would go with my father to the barn to clean the corn, make bonds (straw ropes to tie up the straw behind the thresher) so there was no peace but plenty to eat.
From the age of 10 or 11, on the Easter school holiday, I would be out with the sheep in the lambing field. In the summer holiday I helped to get the harvest in. It was hard work but I liked to be like the men, and it was better than school. After school and work I was allowed to look after the odd horse with the waggoner. That meant I had to feed and water the horse before six, back in for breakfast, back to the horse, push up its bed and get the horse ready to go to work with the men on the farm at 7 o'clock. At 4 o'clock we come in and get hay in and cut it up. About five I'd have my tea, then at 8 o'clock go out to the horse to see if the waggoner wanted any help to bed down the horses for the night. The rest of the day was my own. I was lucky as I could go where I liked as long as I told my parents who I was going with and what time I would be home, but work came first.

From the time I was about 10, if there was a load of straw to put on the rail at Ham Street or take to a farm in Bethersden, father would say to the waggoner "You can have the third horse and Charles will come to lead the front horse". This meant there was a third horse to pull the load up the hills. I would lead the horse one way, and when the wagon was empty on the way back, I would ride on the wagon with my horse tied to the back. Later father got a Ford lorry. That saved the walking. But when we left the farm with a load of straw, the lorry was very slow going up Bilsington hill and I had to walk behind to see if the load was OK.

About 1922, when I was five, father had a tractor, registration number KK100, which had iron wheels and was alright on our beach roads. After a year or two we had at least two more as we were helping other farmers out doing contract work. These all had the same number KK100 which cost just five shillings a year.
Of course, I was eager to get on a tractor, which was great. To start you had to swing the engine over fast to make the spark, then to get into gear there was a lot of grating as the gear oil was very thick. To turn at the end of the field we had to do some tricky manoeuvres as there was nothing to lift up to make the tractor turn easy and no brake. If you were on loose ground the tractor would go almost straight.
About 1934 we had new Fordson with iron wheels. A year later we had rubber tyres, the first in the village. I did a lot of work for other farmers about this time, discing and drilling or ploughing, then back home to work with lambing, haying, harvesting and back to ploughing in the Autumn. In the winter I would go round the farms on the marsh threshing grass seed and wild white clover. This work did not take up all my time so I had to help out at the farm with the corn threshing and steam ploughing.
At 14 when I left school, my best hobby was shooting. There were a lot of vermin, rabbits, rooks and pigeons. My first gun was a 410 which I liked best as it was lighter than the twelve bore. I would try to keep the big flocks of rooks and pigeons off the fields of peas and corn. On Saturday we worked until 4 and then it was a rush to be ready by six to bike nine miles to Ashford for an evening walk round the shops till eight, then to the pictures. There would be about six of us, and it cost 2p to park the bike and 8p for the pictures. On Sunday evenings we would bike the nine miles to Hythe or perhaps go to Rye or just ride around the country. On winter evenings we would stay at home and play cards. Later we would go down to the pub and the one who won the most would buy the drinks, so you had to win a lot to be in pocket.
When the war started it meant more work and less time off. I was lucky as I had to stay on the land to feed the people. That was fine, I was always at home at night, but it was very hard work at times. The work had to be done and most of the young men had gone into the forces. There was a lot more corn as a tenth of the grass had to be ploughed. This put a lot of extra work for our old tools and we could not get new parts when they broke. We had to work harder on Sundays repairing things so that they could keep going to get the work done. As the war went on, the army came to help with the harvest, which was a great help. But they only worked from 8 o'clock to 4.30 while I worked from 6.30 until 8pm, and then I had to do fire duty three evenings a week after that. When the army left, some would say they were going on 28 days leave, while I hadn't had a day off for a long time.

Japan firm wins Bangladesh airport expansion project
Staff Writer | August 21, 2017
Japanese construction consultancy Nippon Koei has won an order for an airport expansion project in Bangladesh, along with four local partners, for some 4.6 billion yen ($42.1 million).
Asia Japanese government to provide $42.1m loan
The state project includes the construction of a new terminal for international travelers as well as a new cargo terminal at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka, the capital.
The government hopes to open the new facility in August 2022, and hopes to increase the number of passengers the airport can handle annually by 50% to 12 million.
The project will cost an estimated 192 billion yen, which will be provided by the Japanese government as yen loans.
The consortium plans to hold an auction between later this year and early next year to invite bids for the construction of the planned facilities.
Construction is scheduled to start next year. ■

With Wisconsin's ranking of number one in the nation for binge drinking, the prevalence of alcohol in Wisconsin has yielded health, social and economic consequences.
The cost of "excessive alcohol" use in Wisconsin yields $6.8 billion every year, according to a 2013 report by the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute. According to UW's report, Wisconsinites pay for lost productivity at work, death, health care, criminal justice and motor vehicle crashes.
In the report, excessive drinking included binge drinking, heavy drinking and drinking by pregnant women and/or minors. The report defined binge drinking as four or more "drinks per occasion" for a woman and five or more for a man.
In 2011, excessive alcohol consumption resulted in more than 1,500 deaths, more than 48,000 hospitalizations and more than 60,000 arrests, according to the UW report. In 2012, there were 5,024 alcohol-related car crashes in Wisconsin, resulting in 223 fatalities, according to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation.
Wisconsin Alcohol Policy project coordinator Julia Sherman said it's important to note that more people die each year from alcohol poisoning than from drunk driving. She said this predominantly affects young college-aged drinkers.
Sherman said students who live on college campuses drink more alcohol than students who live off campus.
"Young people who are on residential college campuses have higher rates of excessive alcohol use than young adults who don't attend college or attend schools where they don't live on campus," Sherman said.
In most years since 2003, heavy alcohol use — two drinks per day for men, and one drink per day for women — has been the highest for young adults ages 18-24, according to another report by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services from 2014.
Alcohol-related suicides were also more prevalent among younger age groups.
Sherman said one of the primary problems is that alcohol is simply more prevalent in Wisconsin. Close to 65 percent of Wisconsin's population over the age of 18 drinks on a regular basis, Sherman said. In most states, that number is around 50 percent, she added.
"We've got more people drinking," Sherman said.
Additionally, Wisconsin is not only ranked number one for binge drinking, but also intensity of drinking. Adult Wisconsinites reported drinking an average of nine drinks per occasion, according to the UW report.
Richard Brown, UW family medicine professor, said there are events in Wisconsin such as festivals and athletic games where alcohol is expected to be served, but for other states, it would be unusual to see alcohol at these functions.
Heavy alcohol use for all adults has been higher than the national average in Wisconsin since 2004, according to the Department of Health Service's report.
Sherman said Wisconsin generally has more alcohol-related problems than other states, but that it is hard to make comparisons because states' laws are so different.
Overall, Brown said Wisconsin has less stringent laws for regulating alcohol. He said Wisconsin's alcohol-friendly culture is both the cause and effect of these lenient laws.
"One of the reasons the culture becomes self perpetuating is the culture is reflected in lax laws," Brown said.
In 2011, Wisconsin passed a law to allow residents to buy alcohol starting at 6 a.m. rather than 8 a.m. Brown said Wisconsinites already drink more than residents in the vast majority of states, and it was unnecessary to give residents an extra two hours to buy alcohol.
Minnesota residents cannot buy alcohol before 8 a.m., and are also prohibited from purchasing alcohol on Sundays. Liquor cannot be purchased from supermarkets or gas stations like it can be in Wisconsin and high proof alcohols, like Everclear, are also outlawed.
Wisconsin also has a law that allows minors to drink with their parents in licensed facilities. Brown said this law is "unheard of" in almost every other state.
While allowing those who are underage to drink with their parents in public places that serve alcohol is uncommon in other states, Sherman said most states do allow students to drink with their parents within a private residence.
Brown said Wisconsin also has comparatively low beer tax rates.
Despite these seemingly lenient laws for regulating alcohol in Wisconsin, Sherman said Wisconsin is not the only state with these issues.
"Wisconsin is far from alone in this problem," Sherman said.
One of the ways to curb Wisconsin's excessive alcohol consumption is to put in place "speed bumps" to prevent underage drinking and binge drinking, Sherman said.
One of these strategies would be to implement an alcohol beverage control board, Sherman said. This would make alcohol less readily available by regulating advertisements, licenses and products.
Brown said laws in Wisconsin simply need to be stricter. One of the best ways to deter excessive drinking is to increase taxes on alcohol, he said. If alcohol was more expensive, less people would buy it — particularly young drinkers, he added.
For students, Sherman said it's important to understand that despite Wisconsin's culture, alcohol isn't necessary. She also said there are services available for those students who do drink excessively.

Scottish Citizens' Assembly's takes its first steps to change our politics
Scottish Citizens' Assembly's gathers for first weekend
By Judith Duffy
Kate Wimpress, co-convenor of the Citizens Assembly
THE co-convener of the new Citizens' Assembly says she hopes it will change the way politics is carried out in Scotland, as members met for the first time yesterday.
More than 100 people drawn from a cross-section of society gathered in Edinburgh for the first of six weekends to discuss issues around the future of the country.
Speaking to the Sunday National, co-convener Kate Wimpress said the current political climate was "very binary".
She said: "It is not helping me understand how I want our society to be in the future, so I am hoping the Citizens' Assembly could become a key pillar of the democratic processes in Scotland in the future.
"It's a chance for people really to reflect on things in a respectful and supportive way and to move away from what I think is knee-jerk politics at the moment."
Wimpress said politicians would be invited from "across the political spectrum" to form a panel and meet with the Citizens' Assembly.
She added: "Without wanting to be too grandiose about it, I hope it changes the way we do politics in Scotland."
The assembly was announced in April by First Minister Nicola Sturgeon to discuss the major constitutional issues facing Scotland, with the pledge it will be independent of Government.
It was inspired by similar initiatives in Ireland to discuss divisive issues such as abortion.
Last week it emerged the cost of the Citizens' Assembly has reached £1.4 million, which the Scottish Tories claimed was "hard to justify".
The assembly has also faced claims from Unionists that it is a "talking shop" to further independence. However Wimpress described it as an "investment in democracy".
She said: "The costs are broadly similar to the Citizens' Assembly process that happened in Ireland.
"As a process we feel it is value for money and it is important the assembly members are resourced to allow them to make the best of this opportunity."

In his welcome address yesterday, co-convener David Martin, the former Labour MEP, said the aim was to make recommendations around the future of Scotland that will help the country move forward "as far as possible by agreement".
He said while the backdrop of Brexit and a second independence referendum was vital, the task of the assembly was not to decide whether constitutional choices were "good or bad".
He added: "The assembly is not about debating the general merits of constitutional outcomes, it is not about winning or losing these arguments.
''It is not a platform for any political view or any political party, it not a substitute for proper process or decision making through elections or referendums."

Gabo and Me
By Cristóbal Pera in Features on March 10, 2016 at 2:01 pm | No Comments
For Cristóbal Pera, PhD '91, reading and editing the work of Gabriel García Márquez was life-altering. Pera, who recently revisited campus for the opening of the García Márquez archive at the Ransom Center, reflects on how the famed novelist known as Gabo shaped his world.
How could he bring me here again? This is the question that keeps coming back when I consider how reading García Márquez, then meeting him, and then working with him changed the course of my life. Which makes me think about how his works have changed the lives of so many others.
One of the most influential writers of the 20th century, the writer whose most popular book has sold over 50 million copies and is the subject of 9,866 academic papers and almost 7 million entries in Google, was responsible for my decision to come to the University of Texas at Austin to pursue a PhD in Latin American literature in 1987. Other writers I blame for this decision were his dear friend Julio Cortázar and Jorge Luis Borges.
One of the first papers I wrote while a graduate student was about the clash of cultures in One Hundred Years of Solitude. It took me to the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, where I read it at a student conference. Reading Gabo brought me across the Atlantic and took me to places, as I know other readers have found, to find the echoes of his stories, the people, and the language of his novels.
Reading him was enough for me. But one day, after I traded in my academic career for one in publishing, I got a call from literary agent Carmen Balcells. It was August 2001. Gabo had just finished his memoirs and Carmen needed an editor to work on the manuscript. That day changed my life. Dealing with a memoir and not with a novel helped me focus and devote my editorial work to fact checking. Chapters of the manuscript would arrive by fax or mail every week with Gabo's handwritten corrections and I would send back a list with suggested revisions. Sometimes we would talk. I remember his joy over the phone after he read my note about Borges not being the translator of The Metamorphosis, as he mentioned when remembering the crucial influence of Kafka in his writing. As a journalist, the fact that he was not going to be caught with the wrong information made all the difference.
My biggest reward was to witness his creative process in real time. One of the main chapters of the memoir was devoted to the bogotazo, the 1948 Bogotá street riots that followed the assassination of Colombian presidential candidate Jorge Eliécer Gaitán. It was a dramatic testimony of the events as told from the streets where Gabo wandered at the time as a young student. But before he handed in the final version of the manuscript, he decided to rewrite the chapter, adding a point of view from the presidential office that transformed the chapter into a multifaceted masterpiece. After the book was in galleys, and before it was sent to print, a last message from Gabo left another trace of his genius: the title should be changed from "Vivir para contarlo" to "Vivir para contarla." By switching a pronoun from masculine to feminine, with the change of just one letter he was able to shift the allusion from "tale" to one about "life."
Fate—I don't think he believed in coincidences—brought me even closer to him a few years later when I arrived in Mexico City as editorial director of Random House Mondadori. Although I had met him and his wife Mercedes in a restaurant in Barcelona with Carmen, I had decided not to intrude on his life. It was again Carmen who sent me a collection of some of his public speeches to prepare a new book and told me that he was waiting for me to call. Working with him side by side on that project, in his studio, in that happy house where he was surrounded by so much love, is the most cherished memory of my career as an editor.
Just as García Márquez recognized how reading Kafka's Metamorphosis had changed his view of literature, many authors have written about the impact of One Hundred Years of Solitude on their own work. From world-famous authors, like Salman Rushdie and Ian McEwan, to obscure ones, like the Uzbeki novelist Hamid Ismailov, they all recognize the influence of Gabo's works on their own. McEwan went so far as to describe García Márquez's "extraordinary persuasive powers over whole populations." The burden of his influence was such in Latin America that a whole generation of young writers felt compelled to officially reject him as a model when they realized that the weight of his works was too imposing.
So I return to the beginning. How could a writer affect the course of so many people's lives merely with the power of fiction?
I had seen Gabo in his car in Cartagena surrounded by dozens of tourists trying to touch him, yelling through the window about how they traveled there only in the hope of seeing him. I had seen him unable to finish his meal at a restaurant, his fellow customers hurrying to the nearest bookstore to buy his books so that he could sign them with a smile. After his death, Flavia Wagner, an aid worker kidnapped in Sudan, wrote a moving piece in The New York Times about how the only book she was carrying in her backpack at the time of her kidnapping was One Hundred Years of Solitude, and how Gabo's words, his stories, and his picture on the flap of the book helped her carry on day after day while hostage:
On certain forsaken days, Gabo sat by my side like a benevolent ghost to keep me company, his unfettered imagination inspiring my own wild fantasies. In troubled times he popped right off the page like a genie, his jovial face and words of encouragement cheering me on. In the midst of my greatest suffering, he wrapped his arms around me, pressing me protectively to his heart. Gabo's presence was earthly impossible, I knew, and yet I swore that if I reached out I would feel the soft folds of his grandfatherly face that I knew so well.
In the last year of García Márquez's life, a Polish woman stood guard outside his house in Mexico City holding fresh yellow roses every day from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. for many months. Sometimes she would knock at the door and hand them in, saying, "I bring flowers for him." When he traveled for a couple of months to Cartagena, she followed him and did the same at the door of his house in the old city. What would drive an apparently deranged woman to act like this after reading a book?
And so, he has brought me back here, to UT, my alma mater—where I became a professional reader and where I met my wife and began a new life—to celebrate the opening of his archive at the Harry Ransom Center. I hope that other readers will now experience the thrill of witnessing the creative process of a genius, a very human one, when they examine what he has left behind in his manuscripts and notes—the trail of his works, of his life, in our own.

The Latest: NK detainees express 'deep appreciation' to US
Published on http://mayorofconcord.com/dating-is-not-a-relationship/ by models dating average guys
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and the release of three Americans from North Korea (all times local):
The three American detainees freed by North Korea say they would like to express their "deep appreciation" to the United States government, President Donald Trump, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and the American people "for bringing us home."
They add, "We thank God, and all our families and friends who prayed for us and for our return."
The State Department released the statement as the former detainees returned to American soil.
Pompeo had been in North Korea to finalize details of a summit planned between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
The three men boarded Pompeo's plane on their own. They were transferred in Japan to another plane for the trip to Joint Base Andrews outside Washington. Trump plans to greet them when they land.
North Korea's state-run media is calling U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's visit a successful one and — for the first time — mentioning plans for the two countries' leaders to hold a summit.
A report early Thursday by North Korea's official news agency, KCNA, says Pompeo and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un held "in-depth" discussions of the practical matters involved in holding the "historic meeting." It says the two reached a "satisfactory consensus," but is not giving further details.
The report also refers to the release of three Americans who headed home Wednesday with Pompeo. It says Kim decided to grant them amnesty at the "official suggestion" of the U.S. president.
Pyongyang has been exceptionally cautious about its public framing of Kim's recent diplomatic moves.
President Donald Trump is set to greet three Americans who were detained in North Korea when they return to the U.S. early Thursday.
Trump is promising "quite a scene" at a middle-of-the-night arrival ceremony outside Washington. Their release is the latest sign of improving relations between two longtime adversaries as they prepare for a historic summit.
The detainees were released after Secretary of State Mike Pompeo visited North Korea on Wednesday to finalize plans for a summit between Trump and Kim Jong Un, the North's leader.
Trump has ruled out the Korean demilitarized zone as a site for the summit, and promises the summit's date and place would be announced within the next three days.
Three Americans who had been detained by North Korea are on their way back to the United States.
Their release was only sealed about an hour before the top U.S. diplomat left Pyongyang.
The three men — Kim Dong Chul, Kim Hak Song and Tony Kim — walked on their own from a van and onto the plane of Secretary of State Mike Pompeo at the end of his daylong visit to North Korea.
After meeting leader Kim Jong Un, Pompeo had given a fingers-crossed sign when asked if there was good news. A North Korean emissary came to the hotel shortly after to say the detainees were being freed.
The three men finally left custody at 7:45 p.m. local time, and by 8:42 p.m. they were flying home.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer says he's glad to see three detained Americans returning home from North Korea. At the same time, he is warning the Trump administration not to use Americans being held abroad as bargaining chips in negotiations.
The New York Democrat says he hopes President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo are clear in their talks with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and other countries that "no regime has the right to hold Americans in captivity without cause."
He added that "under no circumstances should Americans be viewed as bargaining chips."
Schumer made the remarks Wednesday in the Senate.
President Donald Trump is ruling out the Korean Demilitarized Zone for his upcoming summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Trump had said he was interested in holding the historic meeting on the heavily fortified border separating North and South Korea. He had said the DMZ was appealing "because you're there" and any celebration would be memorable if the talks proved successful.
But he ruled that option out Wednesday as he kicked off a Cabinet meeting at the White House.
Trump said details of the Kim meeting will be announced in the next two or three days. The meeting is expected to be held in late May or early June.
A number of other countries have also been considered, including Singapore.
President Donald Trump is hailing the release of three Americans detained in North Korea as they make their way back home.
Trump says as he kicks off a Cabinet meeting at the White House that he "appreciates" North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's decision to release the detainees ahead of the leaders' planned summit.
He says he's looking forward to the meeting and believes it's going to be a great thing for North Korea.
Trump broke the news on Twitter earlier Wednesday that the detainees were on their way back to the U.S. with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
Trump said he would be greeting them at Andrews Air Force Base at 2 a.m. Thursday.
He says of the arrival: "I think it will be a very special time."
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is welcoming North Korea's release of three Americans as a hopeful sign ahead of President Donald Trump's meeting with leader Kim Jong Un.
The Kentucky Republican says he's hopeful that "by approaching our ongoing negotiations with clear eyes, we can build on this progress and pursue a verifiable agreement to dismantle North Korea's nuclear arms."
McConnell spoke Wednesday as he opened the Senate.
Earlier in the day, Trump announced that the three detainees were on their way back to the United States with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
Pompeo was briefly in the country this week making plans for the leaders' upcoming summit.
The White House says President Donald Trump views North Korea's release of three American citizens "as a positive gesture of goodwill."
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders says the three Americans "appear to be in good condition" and says they were "able to walk on the plane without assistance."
Trump announced Wednesday that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was on his way back from North Korea with the three American detainees.
Sanders says, "All Americans look forward to welcoming them home and to seeing them reunited with their loved ones."
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says he had a "good, lengthy" conversation with North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un and that a date and time for a summit with President Donald Trump has been set.
After departing Pyongyang Wednesday, Pompeo said the summit details will be announced "in the next handful of days." He said the two sides need to coordinate in the days ahead on setting conditions for a successful meeting.
Pompeo says the three American detainees freed as a goodwill gesture seem to be in good health "given all they have been through."
Pompeo was on the ground in North Korea for 13 hours. That included a 90-minute meeting with Kim — their second meeting in little more than a month.
Pompeo spoke to reporters during a stop-over in Japan on his way back to the U.S.
Vice President Mike Pence says the U.S. "will not let off the pressure" on North Korea "until we achieve full denuclearization."
Pence says President Donald Trump's "tough minded diplomacy" has led to the release of three Americans detained in North Korea.
Trump announced Wednesday that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was returning from North Korea with the three Americans.
Pence says Pompeo did a "remarkable job" overseeing their release and calls it a "proud and memorable moment for America."
A U.S. official says that "substantial progress" has been made on plans for a U.S.-North Korean leadership summit during Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's visit to Pyongyang.
While Pompeo met with top North Korean leaders, including Kim Jong Un, lower-level officials from the two countries were planning the nuts-and-bolts logistics for a meeting between Kim and President Donald Trump.
The U.S. official, who was involved in those talks, said the two sides would meet once again to finalize the details.
No specifics were offered although other officials said Singapore is emerging as the most likely venue. The unprecedented meeting has been slated for this month or early June.
Before seeing Kim, Pompeo met twice with the head of the North's United Front department that oversees relations between North and South Korea.
The family of one of the Americans freed from North Korea is expressing gratitude for his release.
The family of 59-year-old Tony Kim is thanking "all of those who have worked toward and contributed to his return home." In a statement, the family credited President Donald Trump for engaging directly with North Korea.
"Mostly, we thank God for Tony's safe return," the statement said. It added that the family appreciates "the support and prayers of friends and even strangers during this challenging year."
The statement was forwarded to The Associated Press by Randall Brandt, a spokesman for the family, shortly after Trump announced Wednesday that three Americans were coming home.
The statement urged people to "continue to pray for the people of North Korea and for the release of all who are still being held."
President Donald Trump says Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is on his way back from North Korea with three American detainees, saying they "seem to be in good health."
Trump made the announcement on Twitter Wednesday, saying "Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is in the air and on his way back from North Korea with the 3 wonderful gentlemen that everyone is looking so forward to meeting."
Trump added that Pompeo had a "good meeting" with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Trump is planning a historic summit with the North Korean leader.
In another Tweet, Trump said Pompeo and the detainees will be landing at Andrews Air Force Base at 2 a.m. Thursday. He says "I will be there to greet them. Very exciting!"
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is in North Korea to finalize plans for a historic summit between President Donald Trump and the North's leader, Kim Jong Un.
U.S. officials say Pompeo will also be pressing North Korea for the release of three detained American citizens, whose imminent release Trump has been hinting at.
The trip is Pompeo's second to North Korea this year. It had not been publicly disclosed when he flew out of Washington under cover of darkness late Monday aboard an Air Force 757.
Trump announced the mission Tuesday afternoon as he laid out the case for withdrawing from a landmark nuclear deal with Iran, another bitter U.S. adversary.
When the flight arrived Wednesday morning in Pyongyang, North Korean officials were on hand to greet Pompeo.
