Rosewood and Black Glove Leather
A Vitra Anecdote
Historical photographs of the Eames House, which is located in Pacific Palisades, California, provide a wonderful impression of how Charles and Ray Eames lived their life – surrounded by a collage of international folk art, modern furniture design, abstract paintings, toys, patterned textiles and rugs. Their home encapsulated the mid-century modern movement, combining pleasure, colour, personality and charisma with a great sense of humour, playfulness and experimentation.
"Who would say that pleasure is not useful?"
Their home was more than just a home; it was a kind of laboratory, where prototypes from the Eames Office were brought in and out for temporary testing. Many of their designs stayed with them forever, one of which was their treasured Lounge Chair and Ottoman made of rosewood and upholstered with black glove leather.
According to their grandson, Eames Demetrios, rosewood was their favourite type of wood, and they wanted the Lounge Chair and Ottoman to have the 'warm receptive look of a well-used first baseman's mitt'.
At the Eames House, the Lounge Chair was hardly ever moved out of their living room and usually pictured in the same spot, with or without Charles and Ray Eames.
The Eameses kept their beloved Lounge Chair for more than 30 years. Today, almost 60 years after its first appearance in their home, it is still on display in the Eames House.
More information on the topic of Eames furniture is found in the "Eames Furniture Sourcebook" and "Essential Eames", two new publications by the Vitra Design Museum, available in German and English editions from booksellers or directly from the VDM publishing house.

Life isn't what it seems, at all. I learned this fact the hard way. It's true what has been said about life, that you are the star in your own movie, but it was never explained to me why there is a movie playing in the first place and second, who are all these people in it?! Recently I have come to learn the answers to the "who" and the "why." It's called soul school. Apparently we come here, to earth, time after time to learn certain lessons that generally speaking, add up to us becoming tolerant and compassionate about everyone. Think Mother Theresa.
We start out as young souls, learning survival skills mostly, lifetime after lifetime, until we master getting our basic needs met: food, shelter, water. Then we learn to get along with others, sharing space and the essentials. Being part of a group is protective and we last longer as human beings. From there we learn the difference between those who have power and use it, and those who do not. Power provides better chances of survival and improved quality of life so we dedicate our time here figuring out how to obtain power over our circumstances. At first we align ourselves with those who have power—we use our assets to do so—like our beauty or other talents. We study how those in power obtain it and forge our own pathway to that end. We may not be kind at this stage of development, because we want what others have and that desire is all encompassing.
Once we learn to become powerful, we go a little overboard and usually make kind of a mess of other people's lives—but in that effort to wield our own personal power, we change things, we move society forward in new ways of operating, new perspectives, new institutions. The hurt we've caused others is turned on ourselves in the next phase of our soul growth and we find ourselves at the foot of someone else's "boot," just to understand what trouble we have caused others. This is an important phase of our growth because we learn for the first time what it means to have a conscience. We understand love and we know what it feels like to be hurt emotionally, deeply. After many lifetimes learning humility and devotion to family and fellow man, we enter a phase of intense intellectual curiosity to sharpen our understanding of the world and the people in it. We are more devoted to our own self-learning than others' and family but we contribute to society as experts in many different fields of learning. That understanding develops into a desire to bring enlightenment to a larger realm, whole societies, in order to better the world.
Finally, after all the learning that has taken place, all the skills are brought to bear in helping others, younger souls to undertake their own studies.
Though it seems quite unlikely that life is so ordered in this way, and that people are characteristically acting according to their stage of soul growth, we need only look around and see that there is not much variation on these themes in regard to human behavior. Much has been put forth by the profession of psychology and its offshoots, to explain human behavior, one theory being that all personalities can be fit into various, specific mythical archetypes such as those modeled after the gods, like Mars and Diana. Why not view human behavior from an alternate reality wherein stages of learning (at the soul level) mimic the educational system? This view describes better a progression toward compassion, which we hold as a desirable goal and trait seen in persons performing particularly altruistic acts. Think Gandhi. Certainly Jesus. Could they not be the oldest souls possible in our soul's education system?
I earlier said that I had learned that life is not what it seems—the hard way. What I meant by that statement was, I thought my life had been governed by a random or somewhat thoughtless system that was part surprise (not in a good sense) and part destiny. Even though I had studied many years with Dixie Yeterian, a renowned clairvoyant and healer, and was taught in detail about soul evolvement, I remained loosely gripped to the truth of her teachings until I got very, very ill. I was at the point of reviewing my life to say goodbye to it when I received a communication from "the other side" about what all those scenes I was reliving were about. They were not about the specifics of the arguments or the pretense of truth when I was actually lying, it was about the soul lesson I was being given—my important education. I was to learn how to stand up for myself, and value who I was, no matter what the apparent cost—over, and over, and over again, in this relationship, in that job and in that neighborhood, etc. I was told this, and I can assure you, it was a shock. So much so, I lost all the emotional pain associated with those moments, those scenes I was reliving. Dixie Yeterian was right, after all!
I was told, now I can heal, which I did, miraculously.
Those people in my life were props, setting up the scenes, the conversations and the action in the movie that was my life story. Once I saw it that way, my mind cleared. Literally. My head was full of pain.
I was told that I needed the illness to make clear, my life purpose, that I had misunderstood my intentions. I had misunderstood pretty much everything, so now I am assuring you that all is of purpose in your life: the people, the places, your work, your relationships, your frame of mind. You are a soul on your way to greatness!

Q: How to specify a default argument for a template parameter pack? I have the following method
template <std::size_t N, std::size_t... Indices>
void doSomething()
{
    ...
};

It seems not possible to supply default values for Indices, e.g.
template <std::size_t N, std::size_t... Indices = std::make_index_sequence<N>>
void doSomething()
{
    ...
};

Compiler complains that
error: expected primary-expression before '>' token
template <std::size_t N, std::size_t... Indices = std::make_index_sequence<N>>
                                                                             ^~
error: template parameter pack 'Indices' cannot have a default argument
template <std::size_t N, std::size_t... Indices = std::make_index_sequence<N>>
                                    ^~~

Is there any way around this?

A: This is impossible. However, you can wrap parameter pack with index_sequence and expand them in the function body
#include <cstddef>
#include <utility>

template <std::size_t N, class Indices = std::make_index_sequence<N>>
void doSomething() {
  []<std::size_t... Is>(std::index_sequence<Is...>) {
    // expand parameter pack
  }(Indices{});
};

Demo

A: There's already two excellent answers so far (including NathanOliver's comment). I think that having a couple of overloads that act as wrappers is really the simplest solution here, but just for completeness, let's provide your desired functionality in one function:
Often it's best to take as much of the template logic out of the parameter list as possible (separating inputs from logic):
template <std::size_t N, std::size_t... Indices>
void doSomething()
{
    using Ints
        = std::conditional_t<
            /* if */ (sizeof...(Indices) > 0),
                std::index_sequence<Indices...>,
            /* else */
                std::make_index_sequence<N>>;

    // ...
};

Q: Explain ${var:-val} and ${var+val} Can any one explain this format?
${name:-$devi}

Example:
      "${1+"$@"}" will check for that first variable to be set , if not it will use that

        command line argument.

What is the difference between :- and +  between those variables?

A: ${var:-val}

is the same as ${var} if var is set and non-null, otherwise it expands to val. This is used to specify a default value for a variable.
${var+val}

expands to nothing if var is unset, otherwise it expands to val. This is used to supply an alternate value for a variable.
"${1+"$@"}"

is a workaround for a bug in old shell versions. If you just wrote "$@", it would expand to "" when no arguments were supplied, instead of expanding to nothing; the script would then act as if a single, empty argument had been supplied. This syntax first checks whether $1 is set -- if there's no first argument, then there are obviously no arguments at all. If $1 is unset, it expands to nothing, otherwise it's safe to use "$@".
Most modern shell versions don't have this bug, so you can just write "$@" without the special check. I'm not sure if there are any other common use cases for the + construct in shell variable expansion.


Kahl Audio » MIT Oracle AC1 AC cord. 2m 15amp. Lots of positive reviews! $3,000 MSRP!
This the AC cord if you want to "add" some "force" in your system. Bass energy increased when this AC cord was used and brought about an overall lush sound across the frequency spectrum. If your system or certain components sound a bit too bright, this is a good "cure" to tone down some of the brightness. Cable has garnered many positive reviews over the years and continues to be one of the favorite AC cord in any audiophile's system.
Cosmetically, the cable is in very good shape. Just some minor scuff marks on the network box. Original box included.


Nottingham Forest chief executive Paul Faulkner has resigned less than 24 hours after Stuart Pearce was sacked as manager, BBC Nottingham Sport reports.
Faulkner had only been in the role for five months, having officially taken over at the start of September 2014.
The former Aston Villa chief executive has been placed on gardening leave, but the club are yet to confirm his exit.
Dougie Freedman replaced Pearce as boss on Sunday after the loss to Millwall left them 12th in the Championship.
Owner Fawaz Al Hasawi said the poor run, which has left Forest 13 points off the play-offs, convinced him that Pearce had to go.
But he said dismissing Reds legend Pearce was his "hardest footballing decision".
Pearce, who spent 12 years at the club as a player, is still considering taking up an advisory role at the club.
Listen again to BBC Radio Nottingham's Matchtalk special on Pearce's departure.


May 24, 2006 (PLANSPONSOR.com) - CNET Networks, Inc. announced that it has received notice from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding an informal inquiry into the company's stock option grants.
According to the announcement, on May 16, 2006, the Center for Financial Research and Analysis issued an analysis of stock option exercise prices relative to stock price ranges for certain companies during the period 1997 to 2002. The report identified CNET as having granted stock options on four occasions between 1998 and 2001 with exercise prices that matched or were close to a 40-day low for its stock price.
CNET's Board of Directors has appointed a special committee to conduct an internal investigation relating to past option grants, the timing of such grants and related accounting matters, the announcement said. The committee is being assisted by independent legal counsel.
CNET joins a growing list of companies that are having their stock option practices investigated by the SEC (See Investigation Widens into Stock Option Backdating ). Lawsuits against UnitedHealth by public pension funds have been filed since it announced the SEC was investigating its stock option grants and it may have to restate financial results (See UnitedHealth Sued Again Over Option Dating Allegations).

Stanford people on the move and in the spotlight
First came the burritos, then the brains, for students interested in the neurosciences
by Nathan Collins on October 9, 2018 2:27 pm

First came the burritos, then the brains.
Somewhere in between, more than 50 undergraduates who showed up for the Stanford Undergraduate Neuroscience Society's "Brains and Burritos" heard from researchers and mingled with others curious about brain science.
Tanya Raschke
PANOS VANDRIS, a sophomore studying biology and comparative literature and an organizer of the event, said the organization behind the event began last year as a way to build connections among students who come from different departments – ranging from biology to computer science and beyond – but share an interest in neuroscience.
"We want SUNS to be a community for undergrads in the same way as the Stanford Neuroscience Institute" is for faculty, Vandris said.
"The institute has been building our community of researchers at all levels: faculty, staff, postdocs and graduate students, for the past five years," said TANYA RASCHKE, the institute's associate director for planning and operations. "The Undergraduate Neuroscience Society is a wonderful opportunity to expand that community to undergrads interested in neuroscience and to expose them to what scientific research is all about."
Those who attended the event, held at the Women's Community Center, got a chance to hear from four neuroscience researchers, including JULIA KALTSCHMIDT, associate professor of neurosurgery, who, she pointed out during the burrito phase of the evening, studies how the intestines expand and contract during digestion. Kaltschmidt joined SUSAN MCCONNELL, professor of biology; MARY HYNES, research associate professor of biology; and GREG SCHERRER, assistant professor of anesthesiology and neurosurgery, to talk with undergraduates about their research and how to pursue an education in neuroscience at Stanford.
Then came the brains. Students from the Neurosciences PhD Program's Brain Day team brought several whole human brains as well as components, including spinal cords and a cerebellum – all donated for research and education – for attendees to examine.
Although most of those who came to the event already had an interest in neuroscience, the chance to see and touch a human brain was exciting and, for some, transformative.
"It was pretty surreal to hold a brain and think that's someone's whole life," said NATALIE HAMPTON, a freshman who said she was interested in studying psychology and neuroscience. "I've been here for a week and I got to touch a brain," she said.
For freshman YOSHEB GETACHEW, the experience was a chance to make connections to what he had only heard about in classes and read about in books. "It was an epiphany."

NVIDIA announced their latest, the 20xx RTX series, at CES. Be ready to pay more for the high-end, real-time raytracing capabilities.
My research efforts include working toward unique and interesting applications of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) to safety workers and first responders, industrial and manufacturing concerns, digital entertainment, and the quality of life for people in general.
In another direction, I am working to improve the believability and playing ability of NPCs (Non-Player Characters) in first-person shooter video games. With the assistance of graduate students, I am evaluating various machine learning techniques that will permit the NPCs to learn by trial-and-error or by observation.
A paper is in the works that describes the application of evolutionary algorithms to create NPCs for the Capture the Flag mode of Unreal Tournament 2004.
Interested in this research? Stop by and visit me!
This semester, I again am teaching the video game development course, CS 4173. This course is offered via distance learning so that OSU-Tulsa students will be able to participate from there rather than being required to travel to the OSU-Stillwater campus.
In the course, we will look at many aspects of video game development, including such topics as game engines, game mechanics, 2D vs 3D, physics of game objects, AI and video games, etc. We will use current tools, including Unity 3D, to develop 2D and 3D games.
The CS Department operates a motion capture facility in the lab I use. It is comprised of an 8-camera Vicon system attached to an Intel Xeon, Windows-based computer with AutoDesk Maya and MotionBuilder software to create 3D models and manipulate them using the data captured using the Vicon system. This provides an excellent opportunity for students to experiment with the creation of realistic character animations for video games and films. This is the same technology Peter Jackson used to bring the character Gollum to life in his Lord of the Rings films.

Nobody can teach you WHO YOU ARE. | Changing lives. Empowering people. One life at a time. Nobody can teach you WHO YOU ARE. – Changing lives. Empowering people. One life at a time.
Nobody can teach you WHO YOU ARE.
Have you asked yourself that question? Yes, maybe once, twice, countless times or maybe never.
From when we are children, most of us have already been asked the question about "what we want to become".
I think there should be a clear distinction between who the person is and the activity they perform as part of their 'job'. We're all just individuals and we're all doing something. But that something should not define who we are. That is only a small part of who we are, who YOU ARE.
It is important that you never forget that YOU are more important than what you do.
Keep working towards discovering the REAL YOU. Not the YOU that your career defines you as or the YOU that you work very hard to fulfil others' perceptions of you. Find the real YOU. That is a journey indeed. A journey in to the heart of darkness as the great author Joseph Conrad described so eloquently.
You need to constantly build on the first 'A" of my Triple A Approach to Life and Whole-self development and that is to increase 'Awareness'. Awareness of no one else but YOU, of your SELF. I believe that this is the first step towards any worthwhile, sustainable personal development – to be more aware.
You will find that the more aware you become, more and more of your problems and most of the stress in your life will dissolve too. But, there is a price to pay to develop this awareness. A great thinker once said that "Awareness, in and of itself, is transformative." This is almost spiritual-like, as you 'clean up your own act you find that you build a profound effect on the world around you.
You see, there is a connection – a definite nexus between 'what you do inside and what happens in your life' and when you work on increasing your awareness, you are forced to consider and question your belief system and various beliefs that comprise it. Some of which had been adopted by you as a choice or without a choice when you were growing up. These beliefs helped form your perception of reality. Your version of 'the truth'. You kept these beliefs because in kept you safe in your family while growing up.
But times change. You grow up. Those beliefs which influence the way you feel and behave attract certain situations and people in to your life and what situations and people you become attracted to. So, it follows that what you BELIEVE generates most of what happens in your life. When you work at increasing your awareness of YOU, you will come to this conclusion too.
So, my point is this, by increasing your awareness, you will question certain beliefs that may have served you well when you were a kid up until you were 10 years old but does not serve your purposes now, TODAY. It kept you safe or you felt a sense of security when you hung on to these beliefs in your family when you were child.
Here's the thing, I have found that with increased awareness, you are able to LET GO certain beliefs but you have got to be brave to do so because it is difficult. Matter of fact it is one of the scariest things to do if you're not used to it. Letting go a belief takes a lot of courage and you have to summon up the courage to do it if you are serious about getting the best out of your life.
Well, its simple: because you CANNOT keep believing something that DOES NOT serve you! That is one possible definition of insanity.
But don't rush it. We're all at different levels of awareness so go easy on yourself. It takes some time and practice to get good at it, just like anything else, for example we're all at different levels in our training in the gym when it comes to lifting weights and building muscle.
So, if you accept that what you believe generates most of what happens in your life, and if you don't like attracting the same kinds of situations or people in to your life then you have got to let go of those 'self-limiting beliefs' that are holding you back.
A lot of the price you have to pay to create your new perception of reality is: YOUR ATTITUDE and you are 100% totally responsible for that, aren't you?
There is no doubt that what you pay attention to determines a lot of what happens in your life. True indeed. So, with an attitude of gratitude make a decision to pay attention to or FOCUS on what you want from life, not what you don't want.
When I was in my teens , I saw the world with a different philosophy to the way I see the world in my twenties and it was different still in my thirties. My picture of the world and my definition of truth has changed considerably. The 'truth' as we see it is really our version of the world based on our beliefs and belief systems.
They, however, don't necessarily have anything TO DO WITH THE TRUTH. They are versions of the truth. Not absolute truth, only relative truth.
Therefore, if truth is relative and does not have 100% certainty, DO NOT FEAR letting go self-limiting beliefs – beliefs that DO NOT SERVE YOU well, anymore. Accept that if 'the truth' changes and is dynamic, not static then there is no need to remain RIGID in your beliefs that feed the truth.
There are not many certainties in life but one thing I know with a high degree of certainty is that EVERYTHING CHANGES.
So go with the flow and so be like water and be fluid and flexible with your beliefs and find the REAL YOU, who you ARE, what your real needs are (as opposed to the things you just want) and when you are living according to your REAL needs (somewhat achieved through spiritual growth).
That is probably a point where you will teach yourself more of WHO YOU ARE.
Nobody, I repeat – NOBODY can teach you who you are …. But the REAL YOU!
→ Don't wait for Perfect.
← Give 'The Finger' and feel good about it.

Q: How to terminate threads in python on raspberry pi 3? The problem is relatively simple only that I could not find any
answer with a google search for terms:

*

*How to terminate threads in python

*How to end while loop using keyboard input in threads etc

So format of the program is this:
import everything necessary

def readingsomething():
      DOING SOME WORK in a infinite while loop and sleep for 1 sec

def readingsomeotherthing():
     DOING SOME WORK  in a infinite while loop and sleep for 2 sec

thread1 = thread.thread(target = readingsomething)

thread2 = thread.thread(target = readingsomeotherthing)

try:
    thread1.start()
    thread2.start()

    thread1.join()
    thread2.join()

except KeyboardInterrupt:

    save a file and sys.exit()

So when I run the program everything is smooth except when I
press ctrl + c it does not terminate as per keyboardInterrupt
I am losing the data collected as I am unable to save them.
Any suggestions and help will be appreciated.

A: It is rather unclear what you're trying to do.
You're talking about loops but I see none in your code.
Also, written like that, you will first wait for thread1 to stop, then wait for thread2 to stop, make sure it's what you want.
Put a timeout inside these 'join' calls, otherwise it prevents the listening of exceptions:
thread1.join()

becomes
thread1.join(10)

You may want to think about the changes it induces on your code.

A: You could use the synchronized queue Queue as a pipe to send a value to the thread.

A: Working Python 3 example:
from threading import Thread, Event
import time

def readingsomething(stop):
    while not stop.isSet():
        print('readingsomething() running')
        time.sleep(1)

def readingsomeotherthing(stop):
    while not stop.isSet():
        print('readingsomeotherthing() running')
        time.sleep(2)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    stop = Event()
    thread1 = Thread(target=readingsomething, args=(stop,))
    thread2 = Thread(target=readingsomeotherthing, args=(stop,))
    thread1.start()
    thread2.start()

    try:
        thread1.join()
        thread2.join()
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        print('catched KeyboardInterrupt')
        stop.set()

Automated system "mooves" dairy beverages around the clock
The Kroger Co. is no stranger to innovation. The Cincinnati-based grocery giant has made headlines over the past year for its investments in automated warehouse technology that streamlines and improves the fulfillment of online grocery orders. But Kroger is investing in its more traditional operations as well, implementing an automated warehouse system at its Mountain View Foods milk-processing plant in Denver that is helping the company deliver dairy products faster than ever before to stores throughout the region.
Kroger was careful to choose the right system to meet its needs, company leaders say. After researching best practices in manufacturing and warehouse automation in other countries, the retailer settled on an end-to-end system from material handling solutions provider Cimcorp that incorporates robotic technology to minimize labor, reduce time-to-market, and conserve energy. Up and running for about five years, the technology has delivered on all fronts. The 215,000-square-foot Mountain View Foods plant is able to function as an almost unstaffed, or "lights out," operation that is increasing the shelf life of the packaged milk, cream, and juice it provides to 160 Kroger stores—all while keeping safety and sustainability as top priorities.
EFFICIENT BY DESIGN
At the core of the Denver facility's operation is Cimcorp's MultiPick warehouse solution, a fully automated robotic production, storage, handling, and order-processing system that can hold up to 36,000 crates and pick 32,000 crates per day. The solution includes a warehouse management system (WMS), robotic gantries, software modules, and plastic belt conveyors that together coordinate the stacking, storing, picking, and movement of products throughout the site. Cases and stacks are picked according to Kroger's specified sequence on one end of the facility and palletized for loading onto delivery trucks at the other, leaving space for storage buffering in between. The solution also includes an inter-platform communication system, which integrates Cimcorp's WMS with all of Kroger's warehouse software systems to make sure everything works in concert.
Cimcorp and Kroger also point to the innovative look of the system. Instead of using a traditional in-floor-mounted "drag-chain"-style conveyor, MultiPick moves single and stacked plastic dairy cases on a series of knee-high plastic belt conveyors. Case stackers, manual in-feed stations, and inbound and outbound conveyor systems complete the solution, which is directed and monitored via Cimcorp's WMS. The WMS also controls order processing, gantry movements, stack transport, and storage facility data, while a programmable logic controller (PLC) manages the conveyors, stacking equipment, palletizer, and strapping system. In addition, Cimcorp's software uses a picking algorithm that selects cases for shipping on a first-in/first-out (FIFO) basis, by date code, to maximize product shelf life.
All in all, the solution "precisely controls the entire material flow of the facility," according to Cimcorp.
SAFE AND SUSTAINABLE
Cimcorp leaders say safety was a driving force behind Kroger's automation project in Denver. Minimizing human involvement reduces the chance of accidents and injuries, and the Mountain View Foods facility has had no recorded accidents since it opened in 2014, they note. The system's design helps keep things safe. In a traditional dairy, workers would have to use long-handled hooks to pull 250-pound stacks of dairy cases onto a chain conveyor—a process that presents a high risk of worker injury. According to Cimcorp, MultiPick's end-to-end automated system, with its nontraditional conveyor belt design, eliminates those challenges. It also allows the facility to run 24/7, increasing productivity. Today, orders are picked with 100% accuracy at faster speeds, which results in shorter leadtimes, fresher products, and maximized product shelf life, leaders at both companies report.
"Because of the level of automation, it takes far fewer people to run the Mountain View Foods facility than [it does to run] a traditional dairy," a Cimcorp spokesperson says. "Visitors often ask, 'Where are all the people?' The plant currently employs a staff of 115, with only about 30 people required per shift to cover all 215,000 square feet of the plant."
Sustainability is a key benefit as well, in line with Kroger's efforts to become a zero-waste company, an initiative it launched in 2017. The automated system at Mountain View Foods is helping to meet that goal in a number of ways. According to Cimcorp, robotic picking and palletizing can be performed as a nearly "lights out" operation because human involvement is only required to monitor system performance. As a result, Kroger has been able to reduce energy usage per unit by 3% each year.
The system is also helping to conserve water by limiting employee movement throughout the plant. Employees must follow a specific hygiene protocol to avoid product contamination when entering different parts of the plant. Less employee movement means less water used in that process. Together, Kroger's production plants, including Mountain View Foods, have reduced the company's yearly water use by 61 million gallons—the equivalent of the amount of water used annually by roughly 1,500 U.S. homes, the companies say.
Cimcorp leaders say the Denver plant's success has led Kroger to consider implementing similar technology elsewhere, although the companies have not announced any new or ongoing projects.
"Impressed with the results ... Kroger has had discussions with us at Cimcorp to retrofit automation into the distribution of other production facilities," the Cimcorp spokesperson says.

Friday is a Gas: Curbside Gas Pumps
By Thomas Rosell on June 2, 2017 • ( 11 )
As mentioned last week, Gulf Oil was the first company to sell gas to automobiles at purpose-built, off-street locations in the latter part of the 1910s. Prior to that, gasoline was commonly sold from a curbside pump. Folks lining up on the street to purchase fuel no doubt caused traffic flow problems as cars & trucks began to grow in number. The image below shows one such curbside pump up in Corinth. On the right side of the image, this pump was installed between 1913 & 1924 when it appears on the Sanborn maps as indicated by a buried gasoline tank.
"Penn Street Looking North from Meiggs Street, Corinth, Miss. Aug. 1927, Robert L. Totten Inc. Cons. Engrs. B'ham. Ala. L. E. G." Street scene. 1927. Mississippi Department of Archives and History, electronic resource.
1924 Sanborn Map Corinth, Miss
The gasoline tank for the pump was indicated as still being there in the 1949 Sanborn map, but that doesn't give any indication if the pump was still operating at that late a date. Here is that same view today (c.October 2016) where both the pump and the building behind it have disappeared.
These pumps were once quite common in Mississippi. Does anyone know where such a curbside pump might still exist?

I could not find anything about where such pumps still exist, but it was fun perusing the news items from 1900-1920 that mentioned new filling stations. In Jackson, R. W. Maxey received permission from the city to install Bowser street filling stations on the sidewalks of all streets except Capitol street. The Bower underground filling station was considered the "first practical curb pump" because it had the flexible hose for delivery gasoline to the car without using buckets or funnels. Two businesses in Greenville obtained permission in 1919 to place a curbside filling station in front of their businesses. One was on the corner of Washington Avenue, adjacent to the Goyer Company, and the other on 102 South Poplar in front of Echols Auto Company. Maybe someone will have photos?

There is a gas pump at the corner as you come into but may be a conventional one as part of the store.
I had not thought about those in that manner before, but I suppose they could be.
Dooney Tickner
For many years, there was a preserved curbside gas pump in front of the former LeFleur Cadillac dealership building on Jackson's South State Street. I haven't looked lately, so I don't know if it is still in place. It hasn't been active in my lifetime, but still stood at the curb.
Is it possible that might have been a former pump that was used as a prop? LeFleur Cadillac was built sometime in the 1940s. A curbside location for this type of pump would be pre-1925.
I know it was not a prop. It went with Sellers Motor Co. and predecessor companies that operated Cadillac dealerships at the site before the 1940's. The massive remodeling in the early 1970's dramatically changed the brick frontage of the buildings along South State Street…replacing them with continuous glass display windows floor to ceiling. Before that time, some of the building frontage appeared older than the 1940's era. This remodeling was done for the Thad Ryan Cadillac era. The pump was still on the street at the time, though as I said earlier, it had long been non-functional.

Ah ok. I was confused when you mentioned LeFleur Cadillac. Yes the 1948 Sanborn map indicates a curbside tank located one block north of 430 S. State Street LeFleur Cadillac building at the Sellers Motor Company 318 S. State Street location.
The 318 South State St. address is the correct one for the historic location of the Cadillac dealerships (Sellers-Thad Ryan-LeFleur). The building housing George Bell Carpets was the remodeled in the 1970's showroom with service area behind. Originally, the building had a longer frontage on the street. The used car lot was to the left of the building if you faced it. The brick wall along the sidewalk in front of Jaco's Tacos was built partially of brick recycled from the old brick Sellers buildings. Later, the used cars operation was moved down to the building that once housed Lloyd and then Van Every Ford. That's when the sign was painted on the adjacent building. Glad we got that straightened out. Wonder if the pump is still on the sidewalk? I'm in Destin, FL, so it would be a long drive to check.

had such a corner pump. It was almost under the porch of the Brumfield Gro. As of 2013, the store was closed.
Here is a Google Street View link to an old gas station in Big Creek, MS. The gas pumps are still there. The string of building to the left of the station is a mighty fine steak house. You should try it if you're ever in the area.

Interesting House with Canopy style station with visible pumps and a neat post 1934 Sinclair Oil sign also. No curbside pumps though. Thanks for the tip about the steak house too!

'Chronicle' Preview Q&A with Josh Trank
Chronicle Preview Q&A with Josh Trank
— January 6th, 2012
When the first trailer arrived for Chronicle back in October, I was incredibly intrigued, and also surprised I had never heard of this movie before. Yesterday, I was invited down to the 20th Century Fox lot where director Josh Trank showed a select group of press members six never-before-seen clips from this movie that blends the found-footage and superhero genres in quite amazing ways.
Chronicle centers on Matt (Alex Russell), his awkward cousin Andrew (Dane DeHaan), and Steve (Michael B. Jordan). When Matt and Steve discover a bizarre hole in the Earth at a party, they get Andrew, who documents everything with his new camera, to help because his camera has a light. After exploring this hole/tunnel, the group realizes they have been bestowed with telekinetic abilities, i.e. they can move stuff with their minds. While some have gotten a Jackass meets X-Men vibe from the first trailer, I can tell you there's much more to Chronicle than that.
We were shown six clips from the film before Josh Trank and Fox executive Steve Asbell answered our questions. Before the clip, though, we were shown Josh Trank's amazing short film, which was instrumental in getting a green light for Chronicle. The short takes place at a high school house party full of rowdy teenagers, when, naturally, a fight breaks out. A duel, actually, with two kids squaring off using light sabers from Star Wars. When the cops show up, they are actually Storm Troopers, and it seemed everyone in attendance got a big kick out of this short, which I hope is on the Chronicle DVD. The first clip is from the party (in the movie, not the short), and it not only sets up their initial discovery, but establishes some character development as well. The second clip shows the trio with their powers, testing them out in a toy store, which is basically an extended version of the scenes shown in the trailer. However, after Steve moves that red BMW with his mind, we see his nose start to bleed, which can't be good. The third clip shows Andrew and Matt arriving at an abandoned area, looking for Steve, when they realize he is flying above them. The fourth clip is also showcased in the trailer, where Andrew literally pushes a truck off the road, and then they all try to save the driver. They all decide to set some ground rules for their powers, one being that they won't use their abilities on any living thing. However, as we see in the fifth clip, Andrew doesn't quite care for these rules, and uses his gifts to rob a convenience store... while using his telekinetic powers to also film himself with the camera. The final clip shows Andrew has become a force to be reckoned with, as Matt and Steve try to escape from his wrath.

The footage was all rather impressive, especially from a visual standpoint, since this has the look and feel of a $100 million movie, although it was produced for a fraction of a fraction of that cost. Despite the subject matter, these definitely do feel like real kids with unreal abilities, and they do a fantastic job in grounding both the kids, and their newfound talents, while keeping the visual aesthetic very high. After the clips were shown,Josh Trank and Steve Asbell answered our questions. Take a look at the full Q&A below.
This is a lot darker than I anticipated. Do you have an optimistic view of the teenage generation today, because we have one that is very different than previous generations, so was there a certain agenda you wanted to address with this film?
Josh Trank: As far as the modern teenage experience, this movie plays wish fulfillment without any cynicism attached to it. We have these scenes with our main characters out there having fun and doing things, they're doing it without any shame. It's not age-based or generational. If these kids were in their 20s, I think they'd be doing the same thing they're doing here. I wanted to shoot all of these scenes with these actors and keep everyone in the present and in the moment, without doing filmmaker techniques where you overtly foreshadow or try to imply things about the story or theme and just let this play out naturally. When they're having fun and flying, we're up there with them, and when things go dark, they feel very dark because this is what it would be like.
Do we ever see what happens in the cave, or is that left as a mystery?
Josh Trank: We do, and it's pretty cool. It's early on. That clip we showed you, the first clip was leading right into it.
How did this wind up at Fox as opposed to Fox Searchlight or as an independent film?
Josh Trank: When I thought of this, I knew that it had qualities of an indie movie because most of the scenes play out with an understated narrative drive. The quiet moments connect the bigger moments. But at the same time, it has this big blockbuster scope. I thought, personally, it would be the ultimate cool challenge to do this film inside the studio system. (Co-writer) Max (Landis) and I had our own separate reps and it went out to a whole bunch of people, but I didn't know a lot behind-the-scenes. We got the call from (producers) Adam Schroeder, John Davis and Steve Asbell. Max and I went into the studio, met everybody and walked out like, 'F**k!' It was amazing and surreal and it's still surreal now. This was our opportunity to make this movie here at Fox proper.
Has it provided you with the ability to open up the scale a bit?
Josh Trank: I would imagine so, certainly for the ambition of what we were trying to accomplish. We were working with a very, very tight budget. But I think you're going to find that anywhere. The main thing is in studios, there's usually a chance the film is going to be distributed as opposed to with the indie route, it's a lot more vague. I did this film called Big Fan with my friend Rob Siegel and it was $100,000 out of Rob's pocket and two and a half years working on it. It went to Sundance and we waited for distribution. After that experience, I was like we just have to make sure this movie is going to get released. That's the biggest thing.
Can you talk a bit about working with these three young actors?
Josh Trank: We wanted to, with every scene, there was this fine balance. Our three main actors, Alex Russell, Michael B. Jordan, and Dane DeHaan, are well-trained, experienced young actors who brought a level of discipline to this and I think, for the first time, they were being asked to not always hit their marks and improv a little bit and just be a bit more loose and have fun with the scene so the performance part doesn't come across so slick. The trickiest part is I do a lot of takes and there are certain beats I want everybody to fall on in certain scenes. Sometimes I would only tell Alex something or I would only tell Dane something to see how it would play out. So it was about the repetition and finding those happy accidents before someone told me we had to move on. That was definitely the biggest challenge in the tight schedule, to get enough stuff. I would do a lot of storyboarding. Even in planning these scenes that appear to be fully improvised, there is a very specific plan in every scene. Lots of rehearsal, training and planning to make it look like it was just an accident. There was a lot of design to it, behind-the-scenes
Why did you set in Seattle, and what setting it in Seattle provided for you, in telling the story?
Josh Trank: I grew up in the '90s, and I loved Nirvana. No, honestly, it was originally set in Portland. I grew up here in Los Angeles, and any place that has seasons, I find fascinating. I've always been fascinated by the Pacific Northwest, and Max happened to be fascinated by it too, so I decided to set it there. When we were developing it internally, Steve said, 'What about the Space Needle?'
Steve Asbell: Anywhere by New York or Los Angeles, I think we've done enough damage there.
Josh Trank: We were trying to think about a city that has something science fiction about it. New York is the place where every big epic superpwer film takes place, or a version of New York City. We didn't want to do that route, we wanted to go somewhere else. Other than some random movie in the '70s where John Wayne plays a cop in Seattle, I couldn't think of any other movie that was set in Seattle, so we were all very excited about it and the set piece we showed you a clip of.
When you were developing it, did you always have the found footage aspect in mind?
Josh Trank: It started out as a found footage idea because I really wanted to shoot a story that is almost a no-no of found footage. How are you going to go cinematic with this kind of invention? If you had a character that is really visually gifted and can operate his camera telekinetically then, wow, there's a movie there. When I was thinking about scenes in my head, I actually had a hard time imagining what it would look like if the camera was following me around.
Where does the title come from?
Josh Trank: I thought what is this movie, really? I was thinking about the themes and it's kind of a journal, this character is chronicling this. Chronicle just seemed cool and mysterious. It has so much to do with the themes of the film that it should absolutely be called Chronicle.
Steve Asbell: When the title was on the cover of memos, people thought we were doing another Chronicles of Narnia, which was not the case.
What's your take on the superhero films today?
Josh Trank: They're always evolving. Back to Superman up until Marvel's the Avengers and The Dark Knight Rises and this movies coming out this year, there's always surprises. I think it's a filmmaker thing. You get an interesting filmmaker to do a take on characters you loved growing up and obsess over. I think it's always this cool gamble. I'm always for it.
What's the relationship between the two characters in the film Andrew and Matt?
Josh Trank: They're cousins. They have that relationship where Andrew, he's, I hate to use the term, a loner. He doesn't like to be very social, and his cousin is the polar opposite. He's very relaxed, calm and confident. Matt both loves him as a cousin and is annoyed with him, at the same time. He's always obligated to drive him around and do things with him. There's a lot of depth and complexity to that relationship we show in the movie, which is central to everything that unfolds.
Do we get a sense of how long Andrew has been chronicling all this on camera, before the movie starts? Has he been doing this a long time?
Josh Trank: That's a good question. The movie opens up with the first time he has ever turned on this camera. He got his camera, originally, to document what's going on in his home. His mom is suffering from a terminal illness, and his dad has been an alcoholic for many years, and it's been getting worse and worse. He originally starts filming for that purpose, and then it slowly turns into something else.
Can you discuss the visual FX and that process?
Josh Trank: We shot the film in South Africa, the whole movie. We met up with this real genius named Simon Hansen and he was a friend of Neill Blomkamp, we had just met him on an interview with local visual FX guys down there. Simon came in and talked about his approach and the way I wanted to do things was keep everything as practical as possible, avoid green screen, shoot - even when we do compositing - real live plates and not create anything digitally. Simon knew how to do all of that. They were pioneers with FX, just real-looking stuff. We collaborated with Simon, brought on a couple of visual effects companies and just looked at every scene and how to avoid digital as much as possible. When Andrew knocks a car through a guard rail, that was just all timing. We had a real stunt driver in a truck, so we shot in the car looking through the rear window. Then we timed cues when he swipes his hand across. And we had a marker with a paper-thin guard rail for the truck to go through. It was a bit difficult for our rotoscopers in some scenes because they would have to remove people. At the end of the movie we have these big scenes where cars are lifting up and on the Space Needle. Obviously, that's not Seattle and we're not in the car, but those are big scenes and the money we had needed to go to those scenes.
When they were flying, were they on wires?
Josh Trank: Actually, we created these big circular rigs that spun and allowed for all sorts of dynamic interaction. Our cinematographer set up all these constantly-moving lights that would represent passing through clouds. That was comped onto a green screen, but we used the practical lighting and all those elements on set, in the digital stage.
What was the budget?
Steve Asbell: We're not going to tell you how much it is, but, honestly, it's way less than you think. It's all on the screen, though, as they say.
You talk about how grounded you wanted it to be, and I was really impressed with the sound, especially with the car being dragged or Andrew crushing the car. How important was the sound to sell these kinds of effects?
Josh Trank: I would say 70% of it. Sound design is huge. This is limited coverage and single-perspective storytelling, and it's often the sounds that you hear off screen, but don't see on screen, which help tell the story. The sound design was so important to this, because it really fills out the narrative.
Are there plans to continue the story of Chronicle? Sequel ideas?
Steve Asbell: Both Josh and Max have a much bigger story involved with this that delves into the mystery of what happens to these characters. This film is about these kids and it has the potential for more. They told me a little bit about it and it's awesome, but we wanted this film to feel like its own piece. It's a really good movie.
Josh Trank: Thank you. I hope you guys like it too.
That about wraps up my coverage from the Chronicle event on the 20th Century Fox lot. This looks like a lot of fun, a movie which balances indie sensibilities with big-budget spectacle, and I can't wait to see how the final product turns out.

Sometimes, the basics are the most complex matter for New Jersey residents who are seeking Social Security disability benefits. To be approved for SSD benefits, there are certain criteria that must be met. A key part of that is the Listing of Impairments. Knowing about this foundational aspect of getting disability is essential when a person has an illness, condition or disability that leaves them unable to work and in need of SSD benefits.
The Listing of Impairments describes the conditions that the Social Security Administration deems to be of sufficient severity that the person will not be able to perform gainful activity. Most are of a permanent nature or are believed to end with the person's death. Some items on the list have a duration for which they are expected to last. For other issues listed, they must be expected to last continuously for a minimum of 12 months. There is a Part A and a Part B in the Listings.
Part A has the medical requirements for people who are 18 and older and are applying for SSD benefits. If a child under 18 has a disease that is of similar processes as it is for people who are 18 and older, then the medical requirements in Part A can be applied to children. With Part B, there are additional medical requirements for people under 18. This is used if there are criteria from Part A that are not considered issues from childhood. Examples are diseases that are only present in children or have a different effect on children when compared with adults. If the applicant is a child, Part B will be considered first. If the medical requirements are not applicable, the child will be evaluated under Part A.
Receiving disability benefits is unfortunately not as simple as being injured, ill or having a condition and getting a quick approval. It is necessary for applicants to go through the process and meet the requirements or a combination of requirements under the Listings. A legal professional is experienced and will understand the Listings and can help an applicant through the Social Security disability process from start to end.


Deep Learning is the next big thing in language technology and is considered to be the future of Artificial Intelligence. Deep Learning is a set of algorithms used on large amounts of data to automatically learn how to represent information, such as learning the meaning of new words or recognising shapes in images.
Companies like Google and Facebook have been making enormous progress with Deep Learning technology. Google's systems ("Google Brain") learned to automatically recognise a cat based on millions of documents, without having been trained to do so. Facebook's deep-learning researchers recently demonstrated face-processing software that comes close to matching human performance.
In the case of natural language technology, applying Deep Learning looks promising too. In the first stage of its research, Textkernel was able to significantly improve the accuracy of its English and French CV parsing models. Those improvements have just been implemented in its latest cv parsing release. "Deep Learning has allowed us to break free from the limitations of using human annotated data in our machine learning pipeline", says Mihai Rotaru, Head of R&D of Textkernel. "New knowledge is inferred from large amounts of data and we have already seen this increase the robustness and coverage of our cv parsing models".
Textkernel specialises in multilingual semantic recruitment technology and provides recruiting tools to accelerate the process of matching demand and supply in the job market: multi-lingual CV parsing (available in 15 languages), job parsing and semantic searching, sourcing and matching software. The company was founded in 2001 as a private commercial R&D spin-off of research in natural language processing and machine learning at the universities of Tilburg, Antwerp and Amsterdam. With thousands of customers word-wide, Textkernel now operates internationally as one of the market leaders in its segment.

Home » Blog » Solving An Age-Old Dilemma: How Do I Get My Cold Beer Home?
Beer enthusiasts the world over know and love the beer growler, a large glass container that holds a half gallon of your favorite beer. Many beer drinkers prefer the taste of a draft over that of bottled or canned beer, and the growler gives us the best of both worlds. In the olden days, a growler was a bucket or a large can used to carry hand-crafted beer from the local microbrewery to one's home or workplace. Now that we no longer carry beverages in buckets, the process of "rushing the growler" (as it used to be known) is a little different. Though we love growlers for making the transport of beer possible, there is one issue that anyone who cares about beer knows all too well: warm beer. How to avoid this problem?
Known to some as a brewpub bag, to others as a growler tote, the growler cooler performs an invaluable service: keeping your frosty growlers chilled. Perfectly sized to fit just one or two growlers, a growler cooler makes carrying an ice-cold growler more comfortable, allowing beer drinkers to enjoy their growlers during all sorts of recreational activities and social gatherings. And since we can't employ our children to fetch our beer for us anymore, you need something equally as dependable to help you get your beer home—growler bags perform an important service, so you want to make sure that yours will last. A tough, dependable insulated cooler bag for your beer is indispensable.

Germany, Serbia in high-stakes Cup clash

Alexander Zverev says it would mean "everything" to him to lead Germany to ATP Cup glory after setting up a cut-throat showdown with Novak Djokovic's defending champions Serbia.
Zverev overcame fellow young gun Denis Shapovalov in a titanic two-hour, 55-minute encounter to clinch Germany's day-two tie with Canada.
Zverev denied Shapovalov 6-7 (5-7) 6-3 7-6 (7-4) after Jan-Lennard Struff had upset former Wimbledon finalist Milos Raonic 7-6 (7-4) 7-6 (7-2) in the opening rubber at Melbourne Park.
Having lost 2-1 to Serbia on Tuesday, Canada are now out of semi-final contention.
Serbia and Germany will duel for Group A honours on Thursday, with Djokovic, a perfect 10 from 10 at the ATP Cup since last year's inaugural competition, up against the seventh-ranked Zverev in a promoter's dream.
Struff will play Dusan Lajovic in the other singles match, before the potentially decisive doubles rubber.
Zverev has amassed 13 singles titles, including three Masters 1000 crowns and the showpiece season-ending championship in 2018, but says winning a team tournament for Germany would be something else.
"Everything. Winning a team event, winning something for your country it's one of the biggest things in our sport," said the 23-year-old.
"The ATP Cup is just as big as the Davis Cup right now, with the new format that the Davis Cup is having.
"So we want to go match by match. Tomorrow we got the defending champions, that's not going to be easy for us."
Italy earlier on Tuesday became the first team through to the semis after completing a comprehensive victory over France.
Fabio Fognini beat Benoit Paire 6-1 7-6 (7-2) in Wednesday's opening singles rubber before Matteo Berrettini sealed the tie with a 6-4 6-2 rout of Gael Monfils.
Nicolas Mahut and Edouard Roger-Vasselin scored a consolation win for France over Simone Bolelli and Andrea Vavassori in the dead dubbles rubber.
Italy remain unbeaten and are assured of topping Group C following their 2-1 triumph over Austria on Tuesday.
Australia scored a 2-1 win over Greece but it wasn't enough to keep them in the running for the last four following their opening 3-0 loss to Spain.
John Millman accounted for Michail Pervolarakis 6-2 6-3 but the battling Alex de Minaur fell short against Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-3 7-5.
With John Peers and Luke Saville taking out Tsitsipas and Pervolarakis in the doubles, it puts the strong Spanish side in a great position to meet Italy in a semi-final.
Russia locked in their semi-final spot when they beat Japan 2-1, winning both their singles clashes to put the tie beyond doubt.
Andrey Rublev breezed past Yoshihito Nishioka 6-1 6-3 while Daniil Medvedev defeated Kei Nishikori 6-2 6-4 in the battle of the former US Open finalists.


Matthew Porter presents a portfolio of twenty-five images of old-school cars, captured in midair as they careen over city streets and highway intersections. Each photograph is a freeze-frame—a hypothetical film still from a pulp-fiction chase scene. The series seems, on one hand, to distill the essence of muscle-car Americana, a pop-cultural semaphore for the high-testosterone male persona. And yet, on the other, the subject—the "all-American" muscle car as antihero—is caught in an eternal state of suspended animation, while the various elements of the landscape in the background organize themselves around the edges of the frame. The resulting pictures are a hybrid of hyperreality and studied, topographic description, part bittersweet nostalgia and part ironic reinvention of a classic American trope. Rachel Kushner contributes an original piece of writing that riffs on the aesthetic and aspirational nature of the American car.

With Easter right around the corner, we are delighted to share these ham-tastic, tasty recipes from our blogger friends with you.
A decadent blend of spices, perfectly paired with rich apple chutney. Recipe provided by our blogger friend, Andrea, from Beautiful Eats and Things.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Remove ham from packaging, set glaze pack aside, and place ham in a large roasting pan. Place cloves along the outside of the ham; about 1 1/2-inches apart. Add about 1 inch of water to pan and cover loosely with foil. Bake for about 1 hour and 45 minutes, or 7–10 minutes per each pound.
In a medium saucepan, heat oil on medium-high heat. Add diced apples and onions to saucepan and cook until onions are soft.
Once apples are completely soft, remove from heat and add salt and pepper, to taste.
When the ham is done cooking, make glaze according to the package instructions, spreading it on the outside of the ham. Turn oven up to 425°F and bake ham, uncovered, for about 10 minutes or until glaze starts to bubble.
If you're in the mood for sweet and savory, trade the glaze packet for an easy, two-ingredient maple rosemary glaze. Recipe provided by our blogger friend, Rebecca, at Nourish Nutrition Blog.
Preheat oven to 275°F. While oven is preheating, place ham in roasting pan, cut side down and cover with tin foil.
Place in oven once preheated. Cook for 10–12 minutes per pound. When there are 45 minutes of cook time left, prepare glaze by pouring 1/3 cup maple syrup into sauce pan. Add 3 sprigs of rosemary. Heat over medium-low heat for 15 minutes.
Remove ham from oven with about 30 minutes remaining on cooking time. Pour maple rosemary glaze over ham, brush it into each cut in the ham. Return to oven, uncovered. Cook for another 30 minutes.
Remove from oven. Brush more glaze (from the bottom of the pan) onto ham, it will be watery, but that's okay. Cover with foil again and let it rest for 15–20 minutes.
Elevate your ham by adding a homemade bourbon orange glaze! This is an amazing recipe that looks fancy but is super simple to make. Recipe provided by our blogger friend, Erin, at Speckled Palate.
For the ham: preheat the oven to 350°F. On a large sheet pan lined with three layers of aluminum foil, which you will wrap the ham in.
For the glaze: When the ham is almost done with its first bake, make the glaze in a saucepan. Combine the orange juice, honey, mustards, butter, bourbon, orange zest and Worcestershire sauce. Whisk until smooth.
When the ham has finished its first bake, remove from the oven and remove the foil from the top of the ham. Roll them down, crimping near the bottom, so the ham is exposed, but the foil still covers the bottom of the ham.
Turn up the oven to 425°F. Brush the glaze over the uncovered ham, and place in the oven to bake for an additional hour. Every 15 minutes, remove the ham from the oven and liberally coat the ham in glaze.
Remove the ham from the oven, and let cool for 15 minutes. Carve and serve warm!
Chipotle and Dijon mustards team up to make this ham glaze with zip. Recipe provided by our blogger friend, Cheryl, at Pook's Pantry.
For the ham: Preheat oven to 325° F. Place ham, flat side down, on a rack inside of a roasting pan and add 1/2 cup water to the pan. Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
Bake for 1 1/2 hours or until heated through.
For the glaze: In a small sauce pot, combine butter, brown sugar, honey, sauce from chipotles, Dijon mustard and garlic. Whisk to combine.
Heat until bubbling and sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and set aside.
When ham is heated through, remove it from the oven, take off the foil and raise oven temperature to 400°F.
Brush half of the glaze on the ham and bake uncovered for 10 minutes. Brush remaining glaze on the ham and bake for another 10 minutes until glaze is caramelized. Let rest for 8–10 minutes before serving.

by Mary Ellen Phipps, MPH, RDN, LD founder of milkandhoneynutrition.com It's hard to believe, but winter is quickly coming to an end and before we know it spring will be here bringing warmer temps, yummy produce and the start of a big travel season.
Whether you're just making a day trip with the kids to your local zoo, setting out across the country for a fun-filled road trip, or hopping on a two-hour flight to your closest beach, there are a few reasons to make sure you come prepared with snacks from home. Cost: Buying snack foods in airports, or convenience stores is far more expensive than purchasing them at your local grocery store or making them at home. Gut health: The stress of travel alone can often throw gut bacteria out of whack. New-to-you snack foods purchased while traveling may create some GI distress as well. It's a good idea to pack some tried-and-true favorites. Immune health: Our immune systems can be another victim of travel stress. If we're not fueling our bodies properly, our immune system could take an even bigger hit – making us more prone to getting sick.
Whatever your plans are this spring break, whether you're traveling cross country or to the nearby park, make sure to stop by your local Sprouts to find your favorite travel-friendly snacks!
Pop microwave popcorn according to package directions. Place popcorn into a large mixing bowl, removing any unpopped kernels.
Place white chocolate chips into a microwave-safe bowl and heat for 25-30 seconds intervals, stirring in between. Be careful to not overheat the chocolate. Stir in canola oil, mixing well.
Pour one-third of the melted chocolate over the popcorn and mix. Repeat this two more times until all chocolate is used.
Once the popcorn is coated, pour onto a large baking sheet. Sprinkle lemon zest over popcorn, evenly distributing.
Spread the popcorn out into a single, even layer and allow to dry for about 2 hours.
In a large, thick-bottomed pot, heat ¼ cup of oil on medium to high heat.
Add 1 and ½ tablespoons of garlic powder and ½ cup Sprouts Popcorn Kernels to the pot. Stir and make sure that the kernels form an even layer on the bottom of the pot. Cover with lid.
As the kernels pop, shake the pot a couple of times to help prevent burning.
When the popping starts to slow down, remove from heat and keep covered.
In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of Sprouts Paprika, ½ teaspoon of Sprouts Cayenne Pepper, and minced rosemary. Sprinkle over popcorn and toss.
Season with salt to taste and enjoy!
Assemble a baking rack on top of a sheet pan with edges. Spread the uncooked bacon pieces on top of the rack, making sure they aren't touching each other. Cook the bacon until slightly crispy following the package instructions for time and temperature setting. Set the bacon aside and let it cool, then chop it up into bite size pieces.
Place the pot you popped the popcorn in back on the stove, and begin to heat it over medium heat. Add the fruit spread and almond butter to the pan and stir constantly until the mixture is hot and almost bubbling (about 5-6 minutes). Remove it from the heat.
Spread the popcorn into an even layer on a parchment lined baking sheet. (Be sure to use. baking sheets with edges/sides.) Spoon the almond butter and cherry fruit spread mixture onto the popcorn and carefully toss and mix the popcorn to make sure the popcorn is evenly coated. (Note: You can also do this in a bowl or bag separately and then spread the coated popcorn out onto the parchment lined pan.) Sprinkle the chopped up bacon and cashews evenly over the popcorn.
Bake on 225 degrees for 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Remove the popcorn from the oven and let it cool completely. Enjoy!
8 cups Popped popcorn (from about 1/3 cup un-popped Sprouts Organic Popcorn Kernels) – see instructions for how to pop popcorn.
Pop your popcorn. Put half of the un-popped popcorn kernels (about 2 ½ Tbsp. kernels) in a paper lunch sack and fold the top over twice.
Place bag fold side down in the microwave and microwave on HIGH power for 2 minutes.
Remove from microwave and let cool slightly before pouring out into a large bowl.
Sort out and discard any remaining un-popped kernels from the popped popcorn.
Meanwhile, make the butter and sugar mixture. Gently melt 3 Tbsp. butter and 4 Tbsp coconut sugar over low heat in a small saucepan, just until sugar is dissolved and the mixture comes together.
Add ½ tsp. ground cinnamon and ½ tsp. vanilla extract to the butter/sugar mixture. Stir to combine. (Mixture will be fairly thick). Let cool for 1 minute or so.
Pour butter/sugar mixture over the popped popcorn and stir with a spatula to coat the popcorn well. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
Pour coated popcorn onto your prepared baking sheet and bake at 300 degrees F. for 10 minutes, stirring every 3-4 minutes for even cooking.
In a large bowl, pour in the Sprouts Organic Popcorn.
Add the Sprouts Mini Twist Pretzels, Dark Chocolate Pretzels, Wild West Roasted and Salted Trail Mix, 85% dark chocolate almonds with sea salt and Red Tart Cherries.
Serve in bowls or popcorn bags.
You can't spell wing without "win"! Our blogger friends put together five delicious wing recipes that are sure to score big points on game day.
Pour water into the bowl of an instant pot, then place chicken wings in steamer basket of instant pot. Close lid, and set vent to sealing. Set to manual, and cook for 10 minutes, at high pressure. It should take about 20 minutes from start to finish.
Once wings are done, turn vent to venting setting and let pressure release, once steam stops, remove lid.
Just prior to serving, set oven to broil. Remove chicken wings and place on a lined baking sheet, slather wings with BBQ sauce, and broil for just 2–3 minutes.
While wings are in the oven, mix together mayonnaise and Sriracha in a dipping bowl, and pour more BBQ sauce into another dipping bowl.
Transfer hot chicken wings from baking sheet to serving bowl, sprinkle with sesame seeds and enjoy.
Note: The following directions will be given for stand mixer and without on each step.
Using a stand mixer, mix together the vital wheat gluten, brown rice flour, nutritional yeast, onion powder, dried thyme, dried basil, dried oregano, smoked paprika, coriander, Old Bay, garlic powder, white pepper and salt with a paddle attachment on low speed until well mixed. If no stand mixer, mix with a wooden spoon till well blended.
While mixer runs on low, add in 1/2 cup warm water and 2 tablespoons liquid aminos. If using bowl, continue stirring with wooden spoon while adding water and aminos.
Change the paddle for the dough hook on stand mixer if using.
Run the dough hook on low for 10 minutes to knead the dough, add in another 2 tablespoons of warm water, and run on low for another 10 minutes. If not using a stand mixer, once well mixed with a wooden spoon, pour the mixture onto a flour-lined surface. Knead the dough with hands for about 8–10 minutes until it becomes elastic-like and can be pulled apart without breaking.
Once done with mixer or kneading, form into 10–12 small wings.
In a large soup pot, bring the 8 cups of broth and 3 garlic cloves to a boil over medium-high heat.
Add the wings to the boiling broth and reduce heat to medium. Simmer for 60 minutes until wings double in size.
While the wings cook, mix together all ingredients for the Thai Buffalo sauce in a small bowl. Additionally, in a shallow bowl or plate, mix 1/2 cup brown rice flour, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, and 1 teaspoon black pepper.
Once wings are done cooking, drained and cooled for a few minutes, dredge in the flour/pepper mixture until well coated. Set on a plate.
Add 2 tablespoons vegan butter to a large frying pan. When the butter starts to pop, dip the dredged wing in the Thai Buffalo sauce and lay on the pan. Repeat until all wings are complete. Flip after 1–2 minutes when the wings start to brown. I like a little burn on my wings as it adds a nice smoky char. Once browned on both sides, set on paper-towel-lined plate.
Using a pastry brush or spoon, brush the rest of the Buffalo sauce on the wings. Serve and enjoy!
Place wings in a large bowl and add oil, honey and all seasonings.
Combine until all ingredients are distributed evenly. Cover and let sit for about 10 minutes.
Spray air fryer basket with cooking spray and place chicken wings in basket. Cook at 380°F for 25 minutes, shaking the basket every 5–10 minutes.
After 25 minutes, increase the temperature to 400°F and cook for 10–15 minutes longer. Shake every 5 minutes and begin checking for doneness at 5 minutes.
Remove when the wings are crisped to your liking and enjoy!
Preheat oven to 450℉. Spray a large, rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Set aside. Evenly layer the wings on the baking sheet, and bake for 20 minutes, then flip them, and bake for another 15–20 minutes or until golden and crispy.
While wings are baking, in a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients for the BBQ sauce. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper if desired.
When wings are finished baking, add to a large bowl along with ½–¾ cup (or desired amount) of BBQ sauce and toss to coat! The amount is totally up to you and how saucy you want them! (You will have extra sauce leftover for another use.) Serve immediately with extra BBQ sauce and enjoy.
In a small bowl, mix together paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, oregano, salt, pepper and cayenne. Set aside 1/2 teaspoon of the mixture. Mix in baking powder with the majority of the spice mix.
Grill wings skin-side up for 30–35 minutes, covered and over indirect heat.
While the wings are grilling, make the sauce. Whisk together butter, hot sauce, honey, Cajun spice rub, apple cider vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce. Brush the wings with the sauce and cook an additional 5 minutes, covered.

Article by Dr. Josh Axe You've read about the keto diet, what to expect when you're eating keto and have your keto shopping list—now you're ready to start the keto diet. Here are six great tips for keto diet success.
So that you're not tempted to eat sugary foods and carbs that are off limits, get rid of anything you'll be avoiding on the keto diet. (It's understand-able that you may still need to keep some things at home for others you live with, but try to keep big temptations out of the house.) Foods you'll want to dispose of include: all sugary foods/desserts, sweetened drinks, grain/wheat products, foods made with corn and potatoes, sweetened dairy products, and ideally all processed foods made with synthetic ingredients or artificial sweeteners too.
Head to Sprouts and seek out healthy fats/oils, quality proteins, lots of different veggies, as well as condiments and seasonings that will make keto meals taste great. (Check out the Keto Diet Food List for a comprehensive list of what to stock in your kitchen when eating keto.) How can you enhance the flavor of keto meals? Use all types of herbs/spices, real sea salt, olive oil, good quality butter, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, stevia extract, hot sauces and lemon juice.
Because the keto diet will likely be very different than the diet you previously ate, you'll feel more prepared if you can meal-plan for the first couple weeks. Look for inspiration for keto recipes online on keto-focused web-sites, Pinterest or in low-carb cookbooks/magazines. Create a plan to get you started, so you can stay on track. In terms of keto-snacking, you may find that your appetite is suppressed and you're not hungry between meals. But if you find yourself needing something to hold you over, try keto snacks like deviled hard-boiled eggs, half an avocado, some nuts, bone broth, beef jerky or a keto smoothie.
Grab a journal or create a document on your computer where you can write out what you're eating each day and how it's making you feel. If you're willing to test your ketone levels (by using urine strips, a blood test monitor or a breathalyzer) you can record how your meals are affecting your ketone levels, which gives you real-time feedback.
5. Finding that you're not feeling satisfied after meals, overly hungry or just plain tired?
Try increasing the amount of fat you eat, and make sure you're not drastically under-eating calories depending on your needs. You can also benefit from adding more veggies to your diet, since they are your best source of many essential nutrients like fiber and antioxidants, support digestion, lead to satiety and help reduce inflammation. Even though fats are king on the keto diet, keep eating several servings of veggies per day (a serving is about one cup).
Of course, the types of meals you eat are very important on the keto diet, but other lifestyle factors can also affect the results you'll experience.
Stay active in a gentle way such as by walking, doing yoga, leisurely biking, etc.
Carve out time for relaxing and restorative activities such as reading, napping, exploring the outdoors, getting a massage, etc.
All of these can help to reduce any keto side effects you might encounter and will keep your energy level up, giving you the best chance of sticking with the diet.
To do the ketogenic diet correctly, so that you enter into nutritional ketosis and start burning fat for energy, you'll need to get roughly 75% or more of your daily calories from healthy-fat sources.
About 20% of your daily calories should come from protein. Fat will be your primary source of your calories, not protein, so aim to eat smaller amounts of healthy protein sources throughout the day.
Just about 5–10% of your calories will come from carbohydrates, mostly non-starchy vegetables.
Overall, the goal is to keep your daily net carb intake—meaning the total grams of carbs you eat per day minus the grams of fiber you eat—to just 25–50 grams.
Dr. Josh Axe, DNM, DC, CNS, is a doctor of natural medicine, clinical nutritionist and author with a passion to help people get well using food as medicine. Author of the books Eat Dirt, Essential Oils: Ancient Medicine and the upcoming Keto Diet: Your 30-Day Plan to Lose Weight, Balance Hormones and Reserve Disease (February 2019), he also operates the number-one natural health website in the world at DrAxe.com, with over 15 million unique visitors every month.

I have installed OneView v2.0 and trying to generate a report on managed servers by location - Rack and Datacenter would be good but cannot find any options to filter by these properties. Am i missing the obvious and Is there a way to do this or is option not available yet?
The built-in reports to HPE OneView does not provide the ability to create a report based on the criteria you are looking for. You can create a script that queries the REST API to generate a report based on what you are looking for. You would want to start with Index Associations, after you get the top level resource (aka parentResource) to then find the associated child resources.
