While Magento 2 has been around for a few years now, the original version of the Ecommerce platform has remained viable (though grows more antiquated day-by-day). But now, it's been confirmed that all support for Magento 1 is going to end in June of 2020.
Websites that become outdated quickly loses their relevance in Google searches, the loyalty of their audience, and most everything else. This means any businesses still using Magento 1 are about to find themselves utterly left behind.
If you're a Magento user worried about keeping that from happening to your own website, here's what you should know.
Right after the release of Magento's upgraded version in 2015, all attention given toward Magento 1 gradually began to dwindle as the platform's shortened lifespan became apparent—meaning extensions and services have primarily been designed for Magento 2 since.
This fact alone has prompted many businesses to migrate Magento versions already. But for those who haven't, there's a few big factors to consider during the Magento migration process.
When searching for motivation to complete a Magento migration, it helps to know why all this trouble is actually worthwhile.
Not to mention, Magento 2 is consistently updated to harness the newest trends in Ecommerce, such as omnichannel commerce. Meaning, when Magento 2 merchants keep their websites updated, they will have access to the cutting edge of online selling.
Migrating Magento is a fairly complicated process involving multiple steps, and it is recommended users develop a plan before starting.
Plans should include everything, starting with preparing your current Magento 1 platform for migration, to ending with a healthy Magento 2 website.
Normally, figuring out how to navigate the steps of that process would take some time. But luckily for Magento users, the platform has provided a handy chart to help things go along smoothly.
A detailed Magento migration guide is available here, describing the terminology, phases, and conceptual overview of the full process.
But as you'll notice from the chart alone, a plan for migrating Magento plan includes a lot of testing throughout the process. This is important, as using a test site and maintaining caution is vital in ensuring no lasting accidental damage occurs.
Migrating Magento data is made easier with a convenient tool made by Magento's in-house team, which you'll find here.
The Magento data migration tool uses map files to convert website data so it fits with the newest platform version. It then begins to transfer and track that compatible data, create transfer logs, and lastly, tests its data verification.
Settings: Where the Magento migration tool transfers previous website configuration options.
Data: Where the tool moves the majority of old website information into the Magento 2 database.
Delta: Where incremental data updates are transferred from the Magento 1 storefront and Admin panel.
This tool was designed specially to help customers with migrating Magento. So naturally, it works with the platform well, and is the most convenient method for a Magento migration out there.
While the automatic transfer tool is appreciated, there are certain areas of your website that need to be transferred manually.
Namely, areas where any media, store front design, user accounts, or access control lists are concerned. But keep in mind, the manual media migration process will differ depending on where users store data for their website.
Media stored in Magento databases must be accessed through the Magento 1 administrator panel.
From there, users need to go into their 'Systems Options', then select 'Configuration', then 'Advanced', and finally, 'System'. There, users will find an option on 'Storage Configuration for Media'.
From here, users need to select the media databases they want to transfer from the list and click synchronize. Lastly, this process should be repeated in the Magento 2 administrator panel.
Media files from Magento 1 file systems must be copied manually from their directories and placed into Magento 2 directories.
This does not include .htaccess files from the Magento 1 media folder, however, as Magento has unique .htaccess files.
Magento 2 has a different design interface than the previous version, so website designs need to be manually recreated.
Magento 2 design in files have different locations and formats which must be adhered to, and layout updates stored in the Magento 1 databases need to be manually redone. These include widgets, category pages, product pages, and the like.
When it comes to user permissions and access control lists, everything must be manually recreated within Magento 2.
This includes the credentials for web service APIs, and any administrative user accounts or other accounts with special access privileges.
Magento users have been aware for a while that it is necessary to upgrade from Magento 1 to Magento 2. Otherwise, future innovation in Ecommerce will leave those websites in the dust.
But now, the time that's left is nearly run out, meaning there's no room to put this task off longer. Ensure you follow the guide above without delay to avoid a last-minute software scramble that nobody wants to see.

You shall not pinch to zoom: Rittenhouse trial judge disallows basic iPad feature

When Kenosha County prosecutor Thomas Binger cross-examined murder suspect Kyle Rittenhouse yesterday, he wanted to show Rittenhouse video on an iPad and use a touchscreen feature that phone and tablet owners around the world use every day: pinch-to-zoom.
Judge Bruce Schroeder's ruling? You shall not pinch.
Schroeder prevented Binger from pinching and zooming after Rittenhouse's defense attorney Mark Richards claimed that when a user zooms in on a video, "Apple's iPad programming creat[es] what it thinks is there, not what necessarily is there." Richards provided no evidence for this claim and admitted that he doesn't understand how the pinch-to-zoom feature works, but the judge decided the burden was on the prosecution to prove that zooming in doesn't add new images into the video.
When Binger proceeded with his cross-examination, he used a Windows PC connected to a TV instead of an iPad to display drone footage from August 25, 2020, the night of the fatal shootings in Wisconsin. While the TV screen seemed to provide an acceptable alternative to Binger's preferred method of zooming in on an iPad, Rittenhouse testified that he couldn't tell what was happening in the video in response to some of the prosecutor's questions.
You've likely already heard about this much-mocked incident at Kenosha County Circuit Court. In this article, you can read lengthy excerpts from the pinch-to-zoom discussion involving lead defense attorney Richards, Assistant District Attorney Binger, and Judge Schroeder. You can also watch this part of the trial on The Washington Post's YouTube channel. The discussion offers a glimpse into how criminal trials are affected by a judge's unfamiliarity with technology—even when that technology is a common consumer feature that's grasped intuitively by millions of people of all ages.
"I don't think [zooming is] appropriate—it's wrong"
The exchange began during cross-examination when Binger told Rittenhouse he was going to play the drone video and "use the pinch-and-zoom feature on the iPad to zoom in on the area." Richards interrupted Binger, saying, "Your honor, I'm going to object to this, and I'd like to be heard outside the presence of the jury."
Mark Richards, Kyle Rittenhouse's lead attorney, argues about Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger's line of questioning while cross-examining Kyle Rittenhouse on November 10, 2021.
After the jury left, Richards stated his objection:
I don't know what the state's going to do next, but I suspect that it's something along the lines of… they're going to use the iPad, and Mr. Binger was talking about pinching the screen. iPads, which are made by Apple, have artificial intelligence in them that allow things to be viewed through three dimensions and logarithms.
Richards was apparently trying to say "algorithms." When asked to repeat himself, he called them "alogarithms" and added, "I don't understand it all, either." Richards then claimed that zooming in on an iPad screen adds things that aren't actually there into an image, and he asked the judge to disallow it:
[The iPad] uses artificial intelligence or their logarithms to create what they believe is happening. So this isn't actually enhanced video; this is Apple's iPad programming creating what it thinks is there, not what necessarily is there. And I don't know what's going to happen, but we had this video enhanced, we had testimony regarding it, and this is one of the topics that came up. I asked my expert—I said, "Do you know of anything that does something like that?" Because that was when detective [Ben] Antaramian testified about pinching his telephone, and that's what I was told and that's where I think this is going, and I don't think it's appropriate—it's wrong.
Prosecutor: Pinch-to-zoom is like a magnifying glass
Kenosha County prosecutor Thomas Binger holds up his iPhone while arguing that pinch-to-zoom should be allowed when showing video during cross-examination in this screenshot from the Washington Post's livestream.
Binger responded that pretty much everyone who owns a smartphone has zoomed in on photos and videos and understands that doing so doesn't change the image in any fundamental way:
I think everybody in this room has a smartphone, whether it's an Apple iPhone or some other device, and I think we've all taken a photograph or a video at one point or another and used the pinch-to-zoom feature. This is a common part of everyone's everyday life. In the olden days, you had a photograph and a magnifying glass, right? That doesn't change the photograph. When you use a magnifying glass to look at words on a paper or a photograph, the magnifying glass doesn't change the image. It doesn't change the pixels on a paper, it doesn't change the words in the book. All it does is make them easier to see. The pinch-to-zoom feature on the iPad or the iPhone or Android phone—whatever device everyone in this room has—does that exact same thing.
Binger then argued that the burden of proving that zooming should be disallowed is on the defense:
Now if counsel has an expert who will say that this is unreliable or distorting the image or something along those lines—even though this is something everybody in this room has done with countless videos and photos through the last 10 years of our lives here; this is a feature of everyday life in America now with smartphones—if they want to have an expert come in and say it's unreliable and you can't believe what's on that screen, they can do that, and then the jury can make a decision as to whether or not pinching and zooming on an iPad or an iPhone is tampering with the video or altering the image or [is] unreliable or shouldn't be given any weight. If they want to make a jury question out of this, they are free to do so.
I don't frankly understand or agree with anything counsel [Richards] just said. I've used my phone, I think probably you have, too; this is something within everyone's common knowledge to pinch and zoom on a screen, and that's what's going on here. It does not change the image in any way.
Judge: "I know less than anyone in the room about all of this stuff"
Kyle Rittenhouse watches video of himself from the night of the shootings during cross-examination at the Kenosha County Courthouse on November 10, 2021, in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
It quickly became clear that Judge Schroeder thought the prosecution must prove that zooming in doesn't insert new pixels and alter objects in the video.
Schroeder said:
Well, I don't know. When I put the magnifying glass up, it's enlarging the image, it is not altering the image. What [the defense attorney is] saying, I think, and I know less than anyone in the room, I'm sure, about all of this stuff, but I'm hearing him to say that they are actually artificially inserting pixels into there, which is altering the object which is being portrayed.
You know what, myself, when confronted with these changes in technology, what I usually do is to admit the evidence but make sure that the finder of fact is aware of the fact that it is not the original image and the method by which it's been enhanced. You're suggesting that I should make the defense bring in an expert for it. My thought would be that actually you're the one who's offering the exhibit, so you should be in a position to offer evidence as to the fact that it is not distorting the object which is depicted.
Binger protested that the court could simply use "common sense," but the judge insisted that zooming in on a video could "insert more items." Schroeder said:
I thought I heard the expert say on the stand, and believe me again, this is not something I'm familiar with, but I thought I heard the expert say that you brought down in from the crime lab that in fact there were alterations made by adding pixels. That's an alteration of the image. I don't have any problem with it being received but you're going to have to have someone testify that it's a reliable… I don't want to say "mirror image," but because obviously if you insert more items into an area of space, it's going to distort what's depicted.

Q: Call discord bot function from django I'm using Django for my backend. I would like to allow my website to call discord bot functions.
A simplified example:
When a user goes to my index page a bot will send "Hello world" from discordscript.py and I want to run it from views.py:
async def hello():
    await ExampleChannel.send("Hello word!")

Is there any way to call these kinds of bot functions from views.py or how can I put some discord bot code directly into views.py?

A: you can use discord webhooks:

*

*first, see this video tutorial on youtube

*then use python-discord-webhook

I want to read the lines from the end of file like tail command to get the recently 7 days
record.
Here is my code, how can i change it.
import time
f= open("/opt/CLiMB/Storage1/log/vsftp.log")
def OnlyRecent(line):
   if  time.strptime(line.split("[")[0].strip(),"%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y")>     time.gmtime(time.time()-(60*60*24*7)):
    return True
return False
filename= time.strftime('%Y%m%d')+'.log'
f1= open(filename,'w')
for line in f:
 if OnlyRecent(line):
        print line
        f1.write(line)
f.close()
f1.close()

A: Use file.seek() to jump to some offset from the end of a file.  For example, to print the last 1Kb of a file without reading the beginning of a file, do this:
with open("/opt/CLiMB/Storage1/log/vsftp.log") as f:
     f.seek(-1000, os.SEEK_END)
     print f.read()

A: I didn't check this, just reformat code:

*

*less verbose import from time module

*dropwhile instead of for..if

*with context to open/close files

*PEP8

*miscs

-
from time import time, gmtime, strptime
from itertools import dropwhile

deadline = gmtime(time()-(60*60*24*7))
formatting = "%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y"

def not_recent(line):
    return strptime(line.split("[")[0].strip(), formatting) <= deadline

with open("/opt/CLiMB/Storage1/log/vsftp.log") as f:
    filename = time.strftime('%Y%m%d')+'.log'
    with open(filename,'w') as f1:
        for line in dropwhile(not_recent, f):
            print line
            f1.write(line)

A: Another Implementation, considering you are dealing with huge log files
def tail(fname, n):
    fin = os.open(fname,os.O_RDONLY ) #Get an open file desc
    size = os.fstat(fin).st_size #Get the size from the stat
    fin = os.fdopen(fin) #Convert fd to file obj
    count = 0
    fin.seek(size) #Seek to the end of the file
    try:
        while count < n: #Loop until the count of newlines exceed the tail size
            pos = fin.tell() - 2 #Step backward
            if pos == -1: #Until you are past the begining
                raise StopIteration #When you end the Loop
            fin.seek(pos)
            if fin.read(1) == '\n': #And check if the next character is a new line
                count += 1 #Maintaining the count
    except StopIteration:
        pass

    return fin

Usage
for e in tail("Test.log",10):
    print e

Movie of the Week: Dinner at Eight (1933)
Posted by moniqueclassique in Recommendations
1933, David O. Selznick, Dinner at Eight, George Cukor, Jean Harlow, John Barrymore, Lionel Barrymore, Marie Dressler, Wallace Beery
Following the great success of "Grand Hotel" in the previous year, "Dinner at Eight" is another remarkable gathering of film stars: Jean Harlow, Marie Dressler, John Barrymore, Lionel Barrymore, and Wallace Beery, among the big names of that era. This production of the MGM studios was directed by George Cukor, known for working best with women. David O. Selznick had also a great importance in the making of this film, and "Dinner at Eight" obviously has some charm and a sense of perfection that one could see in most of the productions under Selznick's signature, the best of them being, of course, "Gone With the Wind".
The film's budget was estimated at $435,000 and it grossed over $2,000,000, being a box office hit. "Dinner at Eight" is full of glamour, splendid costumes, of exquisite taste, and luxurious settings. It is considered a comedy of manners and, even if it wasn't even nominated for an Academy Award (which is really surprising), the film is an excellent screen adaptation of the play by George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber. You will certainly enjoy this motion picture of the early 30s, with its witty dialogue and memorable scenes.
Movie of the Week: Baby Face (1933)
1933, Baby Face, Barbara Stanwyck, George Brent

One of the best performances of Barbara Stanwyck and certainly one of the greatest pre-code productions, with a still important significance, "Baby Face" tells the story of a beautiful, but poor girl who changes radically her destiny, as she moves from a modest bar to the luxurious metropolitan world. In her attempt to get a better job step by step, she seduces each of her bosses, reaching the top – an old bank manager, who gets killed by one of one of Lily's former lovers, the latter killing himself in the same room right after the murder. Lily is the kind of beautiful, but cold-blooded woman (some sort of "femme fatale" in film noir). She has no regrets about the killing of two people who were attracted to her and who even loved her very much. The pursuit for wealth is the only thing that matters to her, and she can take all the risks, if necessary. But in the end she discovers that the true love for a man is the one that really counts and she is no longer interested in expensive clothes and jewels. Barbara Stanwyck is exceptional throughout the entire film. Her co-star, George Brent, was good, too, in the role of the last lover. I highly recommend you to watch this extraordinary film, even more because of its modern message: pretty, young girls who make a compromise in order to become rich and powerful, even if, in the end, they are the ones who lose everything – decency, respect, love, and sometimes even their own life.
Movie of the Week: Design for Living (1933)
1933, Design for Living, Fredric March, Gary Cooper, Miriam Hopkins

A delightful and extremely fashionable comedy in the unforgettable style of Ernst Lubitsch, "Design for Living" is one of the most appreciated comedies in the pre-code Hollywood era. The story involves a romantic triangle between a woman and two men. In the leading roles you will find the beautiful Miriam Hopkins and the talented actors Fredric March and Gary Cooper. Owing to its controversial plot, with sexual discussions and innuendos, the film was almost banned by the Hays Office in 1934, but eventually it was successfully released. In the initial version, it was 105 minutes long, and 15 minutes were cut in the final version. The film is based on the homonymous play by Noel Coward, and Ben Hecht, who wrote the screenplay, kept only one line from the original play: "For the good of our immortal souls". I had a wonderful time watching this comedy and it is so modern even for present-day.
Movie of the Week: Lady for a Day (1933)
1933, Frank Capra, Lady for a Day, May Robson
A film that impressed me very much from the beginning, "Lady for a Day" tells the story of a very poor woman who deceives her daughter living in Spain. She pretends to be a wealthy lady of New York's high society. She usually receives correspondence form her daughter at a luxurious hotel, without ever having stayed there. One day, her daughter decides to pay her a visit with her fiancé and his father, a member of the Spanish aristocracy. The possibility of an awkward, shameful reunion with her daughter after so many years becomes a source of great pain to Apple Annie, and thus she is forced by circumstances to accept the help of an infamous gangster. He pays her to stay at the hotel and he also makes all the necessary arrangements to make her look like an aristocrat. Even if things get more and more complicated when her daughter arrives, the truth never comes to surface and Annie sees her dream come true. She didn't embarass her daughter and she played her role with dignity and distinction. May Robson, the great actress who was in the leading role, received an Oscar nomination for Best Actress, becoming the earliest-born actress to receive an Oscar nomination. "Lady for a Day" was also nominated for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Writing, Adaptation. Frank Capra did a wonderful job again, and this film, just like the rest of his productions, manages to impress the viewer with its simple, direct, and significant message: that everybody, no matter the class and the age, has the right to be happy, even if sometimes it is necessary to pretend, to lie, to create an illusion just like in fairy tales with happy endings.
Movie of the Week: The Bitter Tea of General Yen (1933)
1933, Barbara Stanwyck, Frank Capra, Nils Asther, The Bitter Tea of General Yen
"The Bitter Tea of General Yen" must be, in my opinion, one of the greatest films of the early 30s. I was very much impressed by the performance of Nils Asther, a Danish actor who is very little known today and who had a remarkable career in the silent era. He appeared in several movies with such fine actresses like Greta Garbo, Joan Crawford, Fay Wray, and Loretta Young. In "The Bitter Tea of General Yen", his co-star was another great actress, Barbara Stanwyck, though I have to admit that Nils Asther is the one who simply steals the scene. I can't think of anyone else better than him in the role of General Yen. This outstanding film reminds me of one of my favourites, "The Journey", with Yul Brynner and Deborah Kerr. The story is quite similar. An officer or general, in this case, who falls desperately in love with a woman that he could never have completely, and in the end he loses everything because of this relationship. Both movies were made after homonymous novels. "The Bitter Tea of General Yen" is a book published by Grace Zaring Stone. She also wrote another great novel turned into a film, "Escape", with Norma Shearer, Robert Taylor, and Conrad Veidt. The persona of the General in both movies is fascinating, but, of course, Nils Asther's Chinese General is different from Conrad Veidt's Nazi General. Still, they have the same powerful presence, which electrifies the audiences, and the same strong will in their performances. The same happens with Yul Brynner's Major Surov in "The Journey". If "The Bitter Tea of General Yen" had been remade, Yul Brynner would have been the perfect choice for the leading role. As for Barbara Stanwyck, she is good, but not memorable in the role of a Christian missionary who finds herself trapped in Shanghai during the Chinese Civil War from the late 20s. A better choice would have been, to me, Loretta Young, Fay Wray or Joan Crawford. I was surprised to read that "The Bitter Tea of General Yen" was a failure at the box-office, especially because of the relationship between a Chinaman and an American woman. This idea was rejected at its time by the audiences and by the film critics, but nowadays, this film is considered a superior production of the old Hollywood, and I perfectly agree with this. I liked very much this motion picture of the Columbia Studios, directed by the famous Frank Capra (best known for his screwball comedies), and I also liked the idea of turning the love scenes between the General and the American missionary into a dream. The ending is sad, just like in "The Journey", but very significant. I recommend you to watch "The Bitter Tea of General Yen". You will certainly like it very much.
Movie of the Week: I Was a Spy (1933)
1933, Conrad Veidt, Herbert Marshall, I Was a Spy, Madeleine Carroll, Victor Saville
This review was published by me on my Conrad Veidt website, http://conradveidtforever.wordpress.com/.
"This is the film that defined Conrad't quintessential role – the monocled, dangerous officer, who puts duty above everything, including love. I wouldn't say he is a villain, but he is a character that exudes tension and a mix of passion and cold-blooded attitude. His "victim" here is the beautiful blonde and fine actress Madeleine Carroll (best known for Hitchcock's 39 Steps and for The Prisoner of Zenda). Connie looks impeccable in elegant uniform and wearing monocle – obviously his trademark. My regret is that he hasn't got here the leading role, but Herbert Marshall. As the title says, this is a spy film, one of the first of this genre in which Connie appeared over the next 10 years. This was also his first motion picture made in England as an immigrant from Germany. "I Was a Spy" has a few memorable scenes (such as the scene where the Commandant is trying to seduce the nurse) and is directed by Victor Saville (who also directed "Dark Journey"). It was very successful, even if what bothered me was the lack of musical score and of impressive sets. Unfortunately, several sequences were deleted, such as the one where the Commander is having a drink with Marthe at a café. It would be nice if the cut footage would be put back where it belonged, so we could trully enjoy this complex and very realistic film about the difficult times of World War I."
Movie of the Week: Queen Christina (1933)
1933, Greta Garbo, John Gilbert, Queen Christina, Rouben Mamoulian
Perhaps the most fascinating role in Greta Garbo's entire career, "Queen Christina" tells the story of the legendary royal figure in the Swedish history (1626-1689). Garbo, a Swedish herself, was perfect for the part. There are plenty of magnificent shots that emphasize the rare beauty and the strangeness of the soul and mind of this remarkable woman, who became an idol to millions and millions of people around the world. Her co-star was her former lover, John Gilbert, who, obviously, was very much in love with Garbo, even more because they had previously appeared in some iconic silent films. The direction of Rouben Mamoulian is excellent, and the sets and costumes are really outstanding. "Queen Christina" is a perfect historical film, and the script contains some very good lines, such as one of the heroine's lines, "I have imagined happiness. But happiness you cannot imagine. Happiness you must feel! Joy, you must feel!". Seeing Garbo portray her own persona (because she was a real-life character), as both a woman and a man, switching from one mood to another, imposing her own will and demonstrating that she could be a monarch, but also a human being, is something really unique. The film should be a special experience to any viewer, and it will always be remembered as an exquisite piece of artistry from the old Hollywood era.

The Chemistry of Waters that Follow from Fracking: A Case Study

In a study of 13 hydraulically fractured shale gas wells in north-central Pennsylvania, USGS researchers found that the microbiology and organic chemistry of the produced waters varied widely from well to well.
The variations in these aspects of the wells followed no discernible spatial or geological pattern but may be linked to the time a well was in production. Further, the study highlighted the presence of some organic compounds (e.g. benzene) in produced waters that could present potential risks to human health, if the waters are not properly managed.
Produced water is the term specialists use to describe the water brought to the land surface during oil, gas, and coalbed methane production. This water is a mixture of naturally occurring water and fluid injected into the formation deep underground to enhance production. A USGS Fact Sheet on produced water provides more background information and terminology definitions.
Although the USGS investigators found that the inorganic (noncarbon-based) chemistry of produced waters from the shale gas wells tested in the Marcellus region was fairly consistent from well to well and meshed with comparable results of previous studies (see USGS Energy Produced Waters Project), the large differences in the organic geochemistry (carbon-based, including petroleum products) and microbiology (e.g. bacteria) of the produced waters were striking findings of the study.
"Some wells appeared to be hotspots for microbial activity," observed Denise Akob, a USGS microbiologist and lead author of the study, "but this was not predicted by well location, depth, or salinity. The presence of microbes seemed to be associated with concentrations of specific organic compounds — for example, benzene or acetate — and the length of time that the well was in production."

The connection between the presence of organic compounds and the detection of microbes was not, in itself, surprising. Many organic compounds used as hydraulic fracturing fluid additives are biodegradable and thus could have supported microbial activity at depth during shale gas production.
The notable differences in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the produced waters of the tested wells could play a role in the management of produced waters, particularly since VOCs, such as benzene, may be a health concern around the well or holding pond. In wells without VOCs, on the other hand, disposal strategies could concentrate on issues related to the handling of other hazardous compounds.
Microbial activity detected in these samples could turn out to be an advantage by contributing to the degradation of organic compounds present in the produced waters. Potentially, microbes could also serve to help mitigate the effects of organic contaminants during the disposal or accidental release of produced waters. Additional research is needed to fully assess how microbial activity can best be utilized to biodegrade organic compounds found in produced waters.

A short list of the many uses of medical hypnosis.
The Search For Bridey Murphy by Morey Bernstein was originally published in 1956. The last time it saw print was almost 15 years ago, in 1993. The original is now out-of-copyright; and since copyright law was intended to protect the rights of a work's author, and not to suppress the work, I feel it is morally right to make at least parts of it available here.
Should one of Mr. Bernstein's heirs ask me to withdraw these pages, or if the book is again published and made available and the publisher requests that I remove this, I'll gladly do so.
The following is one of the book's many appendices. Remember the viewpoint of the author comes from 50 years past. Notice how optimistic he is! Yet, as you read these words and inevitably think of the half-century of suppression that has made hypnosis (and Bridey Murphy) all but forgotten, remember also The Secret and the fact that this information is, once again, despite the most insidious efforts of the Powers That Be, becoming available.
Although we can only guess what hypnotism may eventually accomplish after it is fully accepted and explored, we already have a lengthy list of achievements—and some spectacular hints as to what we may expect in the future. Such a hint was provided by the staid British Medical Journal in 1952. The article relates the almost fantastic episode of a British lad who had been born with ichthyosis.
This is one of the most hideous diseases imaginable, a congenital affliction, often dubbed fish-scale disease, in which the skin forms a thick black casing over practically the entire body. The skin, furthermore, is covered with close-set black bumps between which is a scale as hard as a fingernail. When this scale is bent, it cracks and oozes a bloodstained serum. For this loathsome disease neither cause nor cure is known.
But this particular victim, even though his condition was so repulsive that his teacher and fellow students at school resented his presence, was more fortunate than others. An English hypnotherapist heard about the case and offered to try hypnosis. Understandably, other doctors were skeptical of what seemed to be a ridiculous gesture. Already the boy had undergone, to no avail, treatment in the best British hospitals. And even a trial operation for grafting new skin to the hands had only aggravated the matter. The grafted skin blackened, shrank, and brought more pain.
No wonder, then, that many scoffed at the young hypnotist who dared think that he could "talk out of existence" a serious congenital disease. Nevertheless, he started his cure, after taking only ten minutes to induce a trance, with five words: "The left arm will clear." He repeated the direct suggestion several times. Sure enough, to the amazement of everyone, within five days the coarse external layer turned soft and crumbly and fell off. Soon the skin underneath became pink and soft. The hypnotist shifted his suggestion to other parts of the body with similar results. Twelve doctors witnessed the hypnosis and the outcome.
There are many other clues, too, indicating that hypnosis, instead of dealing only with functional diseases to which it is ordinarily confined by standard textbooks, may actually cure certain organic conditions as well. Indeed, the boundary between organic and functional diseases is growing ever dimmer in the light of new knowledge. Gastric ulcer, for instance, becomes an organic lesion once the ulcer has formed in the stomach; yet it is generally admitted that this disease has frequently yielded to hypnosis.
Homosexuality wasn't recognized as a non-illness by the American Psychiatric Association until 1973.
Even without referring to sensational cases and the promise of still greater discoveries in the future, the array of ills which this science is successfully tackling every day is so imposing that one wonders why it is generally overlooked. A list of these would include psychoneuroses, alcoholism, bed-wetting, excessive smoking, insomnia, stammering and stuttering, homosexuality, stage fright, blushing, overweight, nail-biting, drug addiction, high blood pressure, asthma, migraine, rheumatoid arthritis, skin diseases, and many more.
The effectual use of hypnosis in dentistry is spreading rapidly, and there are constant gains, too, in obstetrics and surgery. Some psychiatrists are employing hypnosis to facilitate analysis and to accelerate psychotherapy. Keep in mind, moreover, that a brief psychotherapy means a less expensive one. It is interesting to note that in many prisons, where a fast, inexpensive method of psychotherapy is a necessity, a combination of narcosynthesis and hypnosis is frequently employed. Still, the unfortunate fact remains that the majority of practitioners, both in medicine and psychology, snub this mighty weapon.
Regardless of what may have caused many of these conditions, the nervous system has the power to alleviate the trouble or to banish it altogether. It is actually possible, under certain conditions, to "tell" the nervous system what to do; evidently it really has the power to "listen" to proper suggestions. This is one of the miracles of human nature. And we would be foolish indeed to ignore its reality.
While hypnotism is no cure-all, there are many complaints for which it is the ideal treatment and a still greater number of conditions for which it is a valuable adjunct to conventional medical methods.

So funny how stupid greedy people act like an angry beast for food.. hahahhaha!!!! So cheap!!! Finally, I am far from her!!! God is good... I tried helping her by showing the difference between right and wrong, but looks like she is trying to drag me to the dark side... hahahahah!!! Ohhhhhh leave me alone!!!
People look, people think, people talk... Do not believe everything that your eyes can see!! Because all these years, I never consider her as a friend. Not my level!!! It's a normal thing for me and my husband to HELP whoever needs it. Me and this greedy beast are totally different people.. OBVIOUSLY!!!


I don't like being a hopeless cook; it does tend to mean that I rely on the same old meals day in, day out (and poor Adrian has to put up with it!) He is a better cook than me and I am keen to try and become better, make yummier things to eat and keep in our larder because there's nothing more satisfying than looking at a delicious meal you've created. Plus it's often cheaper than buying ready made, so we will also be saving money.
One thing I have realised is that I am not equipped for baking at ALL. I have one cake tin, one flimsy mixing bowl, a whisk and thats about it. I have 3 cookbooks, one of which is Adrians and one of which was given to me by a lovely friend the other week-we were both obsessed with the Great British Bake Off and so darling Vic gave me the book f the series to help inspire me. She is my bakery oracle-the other day she whipped up profiteroles (from scratch!) such are her talents!
For now, my super simple cupcakes are an achievement! Go me!
Do you like baking? What's the best thing you've ever made? And would you like to recipe-share!
I have that Goodhomes 101 bake book at home! Haven't baked in ages but those cupcakes look scrummy and now I want to bake!!
wow!! i admire you for your perseverance to be the best cook... love your pictures...enjoyed your blog.. following you now...hope you could visit my blog too... kissess!!!

SF Tech CRE News: UBER Campus coming to Mission Bay
SocketSite has reported that permits for the 410,000+ square foot, 11-story office campus have been filed by UBER. The modern glass structure, designed by SHoP Architects, is being developed by UBER and Alexandria Real Estate Equities.
The San Francisco Business Times also reported the UBER story, stating that construction will commence by the end of September and the project (which will be located next to the future home of the Warriors) is slated for completion in 2018.

Google's Medical Technology Division, Verily, Subleases Large Office Campus in South San Francisco
Source: CoStar
By: Steve Wells
Date Posted: March 9, 2016
Verily, formerly called Google Life Sciences, has subleased 407,000 square feet from Amgen to establish a separate headquarters in South San Francisco for the new Google division, which is gearing up to provide pioneering technology for medical research and devices.
Verily will occupy the former Onyx Pharmaceuticals office campus consisting of three Class A office buildings located at 249, 259, and 269 E. Grand Ave.
The planned move 30 miles north from Google's Mountain View, CA, headquarters, will place the new firm within a global hub for the biotech industry. It also takes a big chunk of the nearly 700,000 square feet of excess space Amgen Inc. (NASDAQ: AMGN) is seeking to sublet in the area. Amgen closed its Onyx Pharmaceuticals subsidiary last year after acquiring the cancer drug developer in 2013 for $9.7 billion.
Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc., (NYSE: ARE), a real estate investment trust that focuses on science and technology campuses in urban locations, owns the three buildings. The recently developed campus also has two land parcels representing nearly 400,000 square feet of potential expansion space.
An initial 400 Verily employees are expected to relocate to the new campus by the end of this year with the expectation that the total number at the location could grow to as many as 1,000 through future expansions.
"We are honored that Verily has chosen to expand into one of Alexandria's world-class collaborative science and technology campuses," said Stephen A. Richardson, chief operating officer and San Francisco regional market director of Alexandria. "Through our long-term relationship with Google, which dates back to 1998, we have been able to provide Verily with highly curated, innovative and integrated campus solution, which will help support its mission to use technology to better understand health, as well as prevent, detect and manage disease."

Lake Tekapo gets its intense milky-turquoise colour from the fine rock-flour (ground by glaciers) which is suspended in the water.
The lake occupies a single, glacier-carved trench and is bordered on all sides by tall mountains, the highest of which is Mount Earnslaw (2819 metres). Settlements around the lake shore include Queenstown and the villages of Kingston, Glenorchy and Kinloch.Because of its unusual shape, Lake Wakatipu has a 'tide' (more correctly, an unusually large seiche or "standing wave"), which causes the water to rise and fall about 10 centimetres every 25 minutes or so. Maori legend links this phenomenon to the heartbeat of a huge monster named Matau, who is said to be slumbering at the bottom of the lake.
Described by Rudyard Kipling as the 'eighth wonder of the world', Milford Sound was carved by glaciers during the ice ages. Milford Sound is breathtaking in any weather. The fiord's cliffs rise vertically from the dark waters, mountain peaks scrape the sky and waterfalls cascade downwards, some as high as 1000 metres. When it rains in Milford Sound, and it often does, those waterfalls multiply with magnificent effect. Boat cruises are an excellent way to experience the Sound.

Q: JPA: How do I specify the table name corresponding to a class at runtime? (note:  I'm quite familiar with Java, but not with Hibernate or JPA - yet :) )
I want to write an application which talks to a DB2/400 database through JPA and I have now that I can get all entries in the table and list them to System.out (used MyEclipse to reverse engineer).   I understand that the @Table annotation results in the name being statically compiled with the class, but I need to be able to work with a table where the name and schema are provided at runtime (their defintion are the same, but we have many of them).
Apparently this is not SO easy to do, and I'd appreciate a hint.
I have currently chosen Hibernate as the JPA provider, as it can handle that these database tables are not journalled.
So, the question is, how can I at runtime tell the Hibernate implementation of JPA that class A corresponds to database table B?
(edit:  an overridden tableName() in the Hibernate NamingStrategy may allow me to work around this intrinsic limitation, but I still would prefer a vendor agnostic JPA solution)

A: It sounds to me like what you're after is Overriding the JPA Annotations with an ORM.xml.
This will allow you to specify the Annotations but then override them only where they change. I've done the same to override the schema in the @Table annotation as it changes between my environments.
Using this approach you can also override the table name on individual entities.
[Updating this answer as it's not well documented and someone else may find it useful]
Here's my orm.xml file (note that I am only overriding the schema and leaving the other JPA & Hibernate annotations alone, however changing the table here is totally possible. Also note that I am annotating on the field not the Getter)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<entity-mappings
  xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/orm"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/orm orm_2_0.xsd"
  version="1.0">
    <package>models.jpa.eglobal</package>
    <entity class="MyEntityOne" access="FIELD">

    </entity>
    <entity class="MyEntityTwo" access="FIELD">

    </entity>
</entity-mappings>

A: as alternative of XML configuration, you may want to dynamically generate java class with annotation using your preferred bytecode manipulation framework

A: You need to use the XML version of the configuration rather than the annotations. That way you can dynamically generate the XML at runtime.
Or maybe something like Dynamic JPA would interest you?
I think it's necessary to further clarify the issues with this problem.
The first question is: are the set of tables where an entity can be stored known? By this I mean you aren't dynamically creating tables at runtime and wanting to associate entities with them. This scenario calls for, say, three tables to be known at compile-time. If that is the case you can possibly use JPA inheritance. The OpenJPA documentation details the table per class inheritance strategy.
The advantage of this method is that it is pure JPA. It comes with limitations however, being that the tables have to be known and you can't easily change which table a given object is stored in (if that's a requirement for you), just like objects in OO systems don't generally change class or type.
If you want this to be truly dynamic and to move entities between tables (essentially) then I'm not sure JPA is the right tool for you. An awful lot of magic goes into making JPA work including load-time weaving (instrumentation) and usually one or more levels of caching. What's more the entity manager needs to record changes and handle updates of managed objects. There is no easy facility that I know of to instruct the entity manager that a given entity should be stored in one table or another.
Such a move operation would implicitly require a delete from one table and insertion into another. If there are child entities this gets more difficult. Not impossible mind you but it's such an unusual corner case I'm not sure anyone would ever bother.
A lower-level SQL/JDBC framework such as Ibatis may be a better bet as it will give you the control that you want.
I've also given thought to dynamically changing or assigning at annotations at runtime. While I'm not yet sure if that's even possible, even if it is I'm not sure it'd necessarily help. I can't imagine an entity manager or the caching not getting hopelessly confused by that kind of thing happening.
The other possibility I thought of was dynamically creating subclasses at runtime (as anonymous subclasses) but that still has the annotation problem and again I'm not sure how you add that to an existing persistence unit.
It might help if you provided some more detail on what you're doing and why. Whatever it is though, I'm leaning towards thinking you need to rethink what you're doing or how you're doing it or you need to pick a different persistence technology.

A: You may be able to specify the table name at load time via a custom ClassLoader that re-writes the @Table annotation on classes as they are loaded. At the moment, I am not 100% sure how you would ensure Hibernate is loading its classes via this ClassLoader.
Classes are re-written using the ASM bytecode framework.
Warning: These classes are experimental.
public class TableClassLoader extends ClassLoader {

    private final Map<String, String> tablesByClassName;

    public TableClassLoader(Map<String, String> tablesByClassName) {
        super();
        this.tablesByClassName = tablesByClassName;
    }

    public TableClassLoader(Map<String, String> tablesByClassName, ClassLoader parent) {
        super(parent);
        this.tablesByClassName = tablesByClassName;
    }

    @Override
    public Class<?> loadClass(String name) throws ClassNotFoundException {
        if (tablesByClassName.containsKey(name)) {
            String table = tablesByClassName.get(name);
            return loadCustomizedClass(name, table);
        } else {
            return super.loadClass(name);
        }
    }

    public Class<?> loadCustomizedClass(String className, String table) throws ClassNotFoundException {
        try {
            String resourceName = getResourceName(className);
            InputStream inputStream = super.getResourceAsStream(resourceName);
            ClassReader classReader = new ClassReader(inputStream);
            ClassWriter classWriter = new ClassWriter(0);
            classReader.accept(new TableClassVisitor(classWriter, table), 0);

            byte[] classByteArray = classWriter.toByteArray();

            return super.defineClass(className, classByteArray, 0, classByteArray.length);
        } catch (IOException e) {
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
    }

    private String getResourceName(String className) {
        Type type = Type.getObjectType(className);
        String internalName = type.getInternalName();
        return internalName.replaceAll("\\.", "/") + ".class";
    }

}

The TableClassLoader relies on the TableClassVisitor to catch the visitAnnotation method calls:
public class TableClassVisitor extends ClassAdapter {

    private static final String tableDesc = Type.getDescriptor(Table.class);

    private final String table;

    public TableClassVisitor(ClassVisitor visitor, String table) {
        super(visitor);
        this.table = table;
    }

    @Override
    public AnnotationVisitor visitAnnotation(String desc, boolean visible) {
        AnnotationVisitor annotationVisitor;

        if (desc.equals(tableDesc)) {
            annotationVisitor = new TableAnnotationVisitor(super.visitAnnotation(desc, visible), table);
        } else {
            annotationVisitor = super.visitAnnotation(desc, visible);
        }

        return annotationVisitor;
    }

}

The TableAnnotationVisitor is ultimately responsible for changing the name field of the @Table annotation:
public class TableAnnotationVisitor extends AnnotationAdapter {

    public final String table;

    public TableAnnotationVisitor(AnnotationVisitor visitor, String table) {
        super(visitor);
        this.table = table;
    }

    @Override
    public void visit(String name, Object value) {
        if (name.equals("name")) {
            super.visit(name, table);
        } else {
            super.visit(name, value);
        }
    }

}

Because I didn't happen to find an AnnotationAdapter class in ASM's library, here is one I made myself:
public class AnnotationAdapter implements AnnotationVisitor {

    private final AnnotationVisitor visitor;

    public AnnotationAdapter(AnnotationVisitor visitor) {
        this.visitor = visitor;
    }

    @Override
    public void visit(String name, Object value) {
        visitor.visit(name, value);
    }

    @Override
    public AnnotationVisitor visitAnnotation(String name, String desc) {
        return visitor.visitAnnotation(name, desc);
    }

    @Override
    public AnnotationVisitor visitArray(String name) {
        return visitor.visitArray(name);
    }

    @Override
    public void visitEnd() {
        visitor.visitEnd();
    }

    @Override
    public void visitEnum(String name, String desc, String value) {
        visitor.visitEnum(name, desc, value);
    }

}

A: If you don't mind binding your self to Hibernate, you could use some of the methods described at https://www.hibernate.org/171.html .  You may find your self using quite a few hibernate annotations depending on the complexity of your data, as they go above and beyond the JPA spec, so it may be a small price to pay.

Criminal Justice Reform Is The New Kale
By Colin McEnroe
The people in the middle of a social movement are often the last to know that it's happening, says Glenn Martin. Martin is a graduate of the New York state prison system, where he spent six years. He subsequently transformed himself into one of the nation's most thoughtful, mediagenic and articulate advocates for criminal justice reform.
He thinks we're having a transformative moment right now.
Martin was speaking onstage at the Klein auditorium in Bridgeport in what looked like a very peculiar living room. On a long couch sat actor-activists Danny Glover and Charles Grodin, me and Fred Hodges, another former prisoner who now runs a program for ex-offenders at Family ReEntry, a Bridgeport nonprofit that helps former prisoners and their families. Arrayed around us on chairs were the program's director Steve Lanza, Martin, Superior Court Judge Erika Tindill and Bridgeport Police Chief Joseph Gaudett, one of the chiefs who's forging ahead with body cameras rather than waiting around for the state.
Martin thinks the argument about "hyper-incarceration" is over. Everybody knows we lock up too many Americans and that our biggest-in-the-world prison population is disproportionately black and Latino. As Richard Pryor said, "I went down to prison looking for justice, and that's what I found. Just us."
Grodin, who's waged a battle against drug laws and harsh sentences, often on his own and case-by-case, thinks nobody cares. "Do you think the average American is having a conversation right now about hyper-incarceration?" he asked, a little wearily.
It's hard to tell. Suddenly, everybody's an advocate for criminal justice reform. Backstage at the Klein, the air was buzzing over Bill Clinton's declaration that day that the policies of his administration put too many people in prison.
Such declarations are meant to shore up his wife's status as a reformer, as Democrat Hillary Clinton joins Republican Sens. Ted Cruz and Rand Paul in arguing for reform of mandatory minimum sentencing. Republican Govs. Rick Perry and Scott Walker are pushing diversion from prison to rehab for drug offenders, and Republican Gov. Chris Christie stood up for release without bail for nonviolent offenders long before it seemed like something that might benefit his own staff.
Here in Connecticut, Democrat Gov. Dannel P. Malloy has rolled out a Second Chance Society plan that reads like a checklist for desirable change: end mandatory minimums for possession, reclassify drug crimes, streamline parole and pardons, and beef up housing and job re-entry programs.
Criminal justice reform is the new kale. The must-have accessory is Michelle Alexander's 2010 book "The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age Colorblindness." Five years after publication, it's the No. 1 bestseller about race and civil rights on the New York Times charts.
Perspective on the week's biggest stories from the Courant's Opinion page
If you're pressed for time, the must-read is "The Milwaukee Experiment," Jeffrey Toobin's profile of prosecutor John Chisolm, who's redefining the word "success" for his profession by emphasizing diversion (into alternative programs) over conviction rates. In fact, Chisolm's most exciting idea is to break in at the moment between arrest and arraignment and use an eight-question assessment to determine whether the arrestee should be arraigned or placed in a different kind of program.
One way to look at criminal justice is as a series of decision points at which less is sometimes more. Gaudett says his cops have to learn that success no longer means leading your unit in collars. Often it means a savvy decision not to arrest.
Studies support the case made by Chisolm (and Christie!) that getting certain arrestees out of the system before they've spent even one night in jail can dramatically alter outcomes, for the good.
Fewer police stops. Fewer arrests after stops. Fewer prosecutions of arrests. Fewer fail sentences for convictions. Few is beautiful, baby.
Why is this important? We're the world's leading jailer nation. We lock up a higher percentage of or people than repressive regimes in China or Russia. Or anywhere. It's wrong, and we can't afford it. One reason Perry and Texas became leaders in reform was that building and maintaining prisons was killing the state budget. He wrote recently, "A big, expensive prison system — one that offers no hope for second chances and redemption — is not conservative policy. Conservative policy is smart on crime."

Yun-nan
Encyclopedia Volume

The Mission of Yun-nan includes the whole Province of Yun-nan which is situated in the southwestern corner of China. It adjoins Tonkin, Burma, Tibet, and the Chinese provinces of Sz-Chuen, Kwei chou, and Kwang-si. It is mountainous and its climate is like that of France. It has about 18,000,000 inhabitants, mostly Chinese, divided into many different tribes, as Y-jen, Miao-tse, Lo-los, Shans, Lissous. The Mussulman population is 900,000.
In 1658 Yun-nan was entrusted to the first Vicar Apostolic of the Society of Foreign Missions of Paris, Bishop Pallu, who had no means at his disposal to evangelize it. In 1699, Father Leblanc was made vicar Apostolic. He arrived there in 1702 accompanied by Father Danry. They found only four Christians, whom they used as catechists. Father Leblanc settled at Yun-nan-sen, the metropolis of the province, bought a piece of ground, and began building a church. Father Danry by 1706 had baptized more than 1000 Chinese. In that year, Emperor Kang-hsi banished the missionaries and father Danry left China, while Father Leblanc sought concealment in Fokien and Tché-kiang; he died in 1720, shortly after being made Bishop of Troad. Bishop Enjobert de Marillat, Vicar Apostolic of Sz-Chuen, administrated Yun-nan till 1780 when Yun-nan was united to Sz-chuen and Father Gleyo went to Yun-nan, where he established many Christian communities. In 1810, Yun-nan was separated from Sz-Chuen. Mgr. Ponsot became vicar Apostolic and was consecrated titular Bishop of Philomedia (1843-1880). The Catholic population at this time was 4000. There was only one Chinese priest. In 1847 a persecution stopped the progress of evangelization. In 1856 the Catholics numbered 6597. The Treaty of Pekin was not published in Yun-nan until 1865. In 1874 Father Baptifaud was killed at Pien-kio by the rebels. In 1881 Father Terrasse and fourteen Christians were massacred at Chang-yu, and 20 Dec., 1910, Father Mérigot was killed at Tsing-in. The present vicar Apostolic is Mgr. De Gorostarzu, consecrated Bishop of Aila in 1907. He resides at Yun-nan-sen.
In 1889 the mission comprised 1 bishop, 25 European missionaries, 7 Chinese priests, 53 churches or chapels, 1 seminary with 25 students, and 10,221 Catholics. In 1910, there were 2 bishops, 31 European missionaries, 15 Chinese priests, 92 churches or chapels, 1 seminary with 21 students, and 102 schools with 2112 pupils and 12,234 Catholics.

Commissioners can't deal with panhandlers
By Wayne Allen
tallen@civitasmedia.com
A concerned citizen recently asked the Scioto County Commissioners if they could do anything about the influx of panhandlers showing up around the area. After seeking advice from legal council, the commissioners learned they can't do anything about it.
Commissioners Doug Coleman and Bryan Davis said they are tired of seeing people standing on street corners asking for help.
"I had people come in from Atlanta with my sister and it looked awful," Coleman said. "Don't think it (panhandlers) will not deter people away from starting a business here. We don't need that and we need to fight this."
The concerned citizen told the commissioners of a recent experience with a panhandler, in which the panhandler threatened legal action.
When asked for a legal opinion on what the commissioners could do, Danielle Parker, Assistant Scioto County Prosecutor said, "unfortunately, there is nothing the commissioners can do. You guys (commissioners) are creatures of statute and there are not statutory provisions that would allow you guys to pass a resolution to stop it."
Coleman pointed out the city of Portsmouth has an ordinance in place concerning panhandlers.
"The city can enforce there's, they already have it in place," Parker said.
The commissioners seemed amazed; they had no ability to regulate panhandlers.
"It's getting out of hand all over the United States. I've been a lot of places and I've seen them just about anywhere you go. It's getting to be big business," said Mike Crabtree, Chairman of the Scioto County Commissioners. "At one time there was some legitimacy to it because people were up against the wall starving. Now, it's gotten to where you see the same one day, after day, after day and they travel to another city to do it there,"
Coleman said he's concerned for safety because, some panhandlers will walk onto a highway to receive someone's generosity. He believes, one day that will cause a traffic accident.

Sacai is the passageway between past Japanese designers and a more modern and feminine expression of fashion. By playing with neo-punk rules, designer Chitose Abe creates clothes that emphasise duality, where the front will be different from the back, for example. There's no room for compromise in Sacai's world.


My work has its influence in both my Scottish and East European roots. It is a series of fragments or "criomagan", and icons, reflecting memories both visual and written. With a family interest in the Gaelic oral tradition and the Gaelic written word, combined with a direct visual reference to the power and beauty of the isolated Scottish Highland landscape, my work is an expressive interpretation of my surroundings. My visual language has developed into an interest in texture and combines printmaking techniques, fabrics and the expressiveness of painting to produce Scottish icons.

Il Boeing 737 Original è la serie -100/-200 del Boeing 737. Il primo modello fu il 737-100 ed era quello più piccolo di tutta la famiglia. Fu annunciato nel mese di febbraio 1965 e il 9 aprile 1967 fece il suo primo volo. Il cliente di lancio fu la Lufthansa con cui iniziò ad operare nel febbraio del 1968. Un totale di 30 esemplari di 737-100 furono ordinati e consegnati. L'ultima consegna avvenne il 31 ottobre 1969 alla Malaysia-Singapore Airlines. Venne presto ritirato dal servizio in favore dei nuovi 737-200 e oggi non rimane alcun modello in servizio commerciale. L'originale prototipo della Boeing, utilizzato in seguito dalla NASA per i test, venne ritirato circa 30 anni dopo il primo volo.

Il 737-200 è una versione allungata per venire incontro alle esigenze del mercato statunitense, proposta in seguito ad un ordine della United Airlines fatto nel 1965. La serie -200 è stata svelata per la prima volta il 29 giugno 1967 ed entrò in servizio per United nell'aprile dell'anno successivo. Il 737-200 advance è una versione ulteriormente migliorata del -200, introdotta in servizio con la All Nippon Airways il 20 maggio 1971. Questa versione vantava una migliore aerodinamica, freni automatici alle ruote, motori più potenti, maggiore capacità di carburante e una autonomia maggiore del -100. La Boeing fornì anche il 737-200C ("C" per Convertible) che poteva essere utilizzato sia per trasportare passeggeri sia per trasportare merci. Il 737-200QC ("QC" per Quick Change) è stato modificato per permettere di passare rapidamente dal ruolo passeggeri a quello merci. L'ultima consegna di un aereo della serie -200 fu fatta nell'agosto del 1988 a Xiamen Airlines. Molti 737-200 sono stati gradualmente ritirati o sostituiti dalle nuove versioni del 737. I 737-200 ancora in servizio operano per lo più con le compagnie aeree di "secondo e terzo livello" e quelle appartenenti ai paesi in via di sviluppo.

Biden to get routine physical at Walter Reed day before 79th birthday
President Biden is going to Walter Reed Medical Center Friday for a routine physical, one day before he turns 79.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki announced the appointment Friday morning; it was not on the schedule that was released Thursday.
A Fox News Poll released Thursday showed that 53% of registered voters believe Biden's age is interfering with his job.

When Psaki was asked in October about when Biden would get a physical exam, she promised, "When he gets a physical, we will make all of that information available."
In May, Psaki was asked about Biden's health.

DAN CAPPELLAZZO/STAFF PHOTOGRAPHERBuffalo - Syracuse Chiefs starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg throws in third inning action at Coca-Cola Field. Strasburg, who is slated to head up to the major league Washington Senators, pitched five masterful innings, allowing only three hits and no runs in his last minor league start. 14,770 baseball fans turned out to see the superstar pitcher.


I love when they go out into the audience to stir up some togetherness. Although my former place of residence -- memorably described by Greil Marcus in his excellent book Mystery Train as "a tough and grimy polyglot city on the north end of San Francisco Bay" -- has produced more than its fair share of famous musicians -- including E-40 and Mac Dre, whom I recently spotted as a bobblehead doll at the Zia Records on Speedway -- Sly belongs at the top of the list. I love Prince, but there's no doubt that he owes a huge debt of gratitude and maybe even some royalty checks to the Stone family.
I didn't like them when I first heard them. I don't know why exactly. But, I eventually recognized their unique sound and musical innovations.
That's interesting. I remember as a child thinking that they sounded odd to me, though I didn't dislike them and was approaching them from a vantage point in the late 70s and early 80s, when their collage of sounds had become much more common. But I imagine that they were more startling at first.
Although they were a "black" group, their sound wasn't strictly R&B or Funk (which is where my head was in pop music). Comparing them and the way they put their music together was different than say, James Brown, who was nuttin' but funk. But, I was pretty open to the differences over time. I was listening to Monk, Coltrane, Miles Davis, Ornette Coleman, Hindemith, Stravinsky, Bartok, and all that.
That's a good point. I think the same thing could be said, though to a lesser extent, about early 80s Prince, who fused so many genres that his music ceased to be interpreted as "black," despite his huge debt to funk.
Damn, that was good. I love how the vocals harmonize not only with each other but also with the instruments which they accompany. And how anyone could maintain that rhythm while singing lead is beyond me. Of course, my musical abilities are modest at best.
I need to read Mystery Train, particularly after writing (last semester) on Invisible Republic, which apparently pales in comparison to the former.
It's strange that they were actually playing, since so many appearances of that sort were badly lip-synched.
I do like Invisible Republic, but Mystery Train is less full of itself and a lot more important, historically.
Some near forty years later, on rare occasion that I might hear "I wanna take you higher", it stops me dead in my tracks. I think it may be the horn section upbeat attacks.
Those 60s-era horns do it for me too, though I was too young to experience them the first time round. James Brown is another one.
Horns eh? Me too. Might I recommend a healthy dose of Blood Sweat and Tears Lucretia McEvil? That oughta do it.
Speaking of sixties horns, KXCI here in Tucson is playing three hours (3-6pm) of Ottis Redding. Hope you can catch some of it.

NEWS: World-renowned Welsh National Opera return to Birmingham
Posted by Dan Richards at Monday, February 18th, 2019 8:30pm
Welsh National Opera will return to their English home at Birmingham Hippodrome this March, with another sensational season of Opera on offer.
Opening their spring season is a new production of Un ballo in maschera, where love, power and politics collide to create a tale of deception, intrigue and revenge. The second instalment in WNO's Verdi trilogy, the production is directed by David Pountney, conducted by Mark Stone and is a co-production with Oper der Stadt Bonn.
Roberto Devereux, conducted by Carlo Rizzi, is loosely based on the life of Robert Devereux, the Second Earl of Essex and his close relationship with Queen Elizabeth I.
Completing the spring season is a revival of Mozart's ever-popular The Magic Flute with a production originally directed by Dominic Cooke and conducted by Thomas Blunt. WNO's Artistic Director David Pountney said:
"All three of our operas in this season touch on the issue of kingship. The Magic Flute involves the training of an ideal, enlightened ruler and hopefully suggests that the future will be ruled by an equally matched male and female pair.
"Roberto Devereux celebrates the power and charisma of one of Britain's greatest monarchs, and Un ballo in maschera shows what happens when the kingdom becomes the playground for the monarch's theatrical and amorous fantasies.
"All three pieces capture the thrilling dichotomy between public power and private passion at which opera excels."
The company have also announced their 2019/20 season, which is on sale now to partners and friends. It features a new production of Bizet's Carmen, transported to a Latin America; a revival of James McDonald's 2010 production of Verdi's Rigoletto, David Pountney's production of Janáček's The Cunning Little Vixen, a new production of Les vêpres siciliennes (the final instalment in WNO's Verdi trilogy) and the 2016 production of The Marriage of Figaro.
Booking for the new season opens for general packages at 11am on Wednesday 20th February, with single tickets on sale from 11am on Wednesday 27th February for Hippodrome Friends and Patrons. Tickets go on general release from 11am on Friday 1st March.
For tickets visit birminghamhippodrome.com or call 0844 338 5000.

Q: Pandas computing average mean and stdev My goal is to compute the mean and standard deviation of different samples.  For example, I have a df:
Start   End   n     Mean   Dev
abc     x     54     47    5
abc     x     45     42    4
abc     y     14     50    10
abc     y     16     30    20
ijk     x     25     20    5
ijk     x     25     20    5
ijk     z     7      10    2

Output:
Start   End   N     CombinedMean   CombinedDev
abc     x     99    44.7           5.2
abc     y     30    39.3           19
ijk     x     50    20             5
ijk     z     7     10             2

Normally I would use groupby and agg({'N': 'sum', 'Mean':'mean', 'Dev':'mean'}) but this is mathematically incorrect.  To compute the combined mean and deviation in this case I have to use:
CombinedMean = sum(n*mean)/Sum(n)

CombinedDev = sqrt[ sum(n*(dev^2+mean^2))/sum(n) - (combined mean)^2]

For example,
N = n1+n2 = 54+45 = 99

Sum = n1*mean1 + n2*mean2 = 54*47+45*42 = 4,428

The combined mean is Sum / N = 4,428 / 99 = 44.7

Sum of Squares = n1*(sd1^2 + mean1^2) + n2*(sd2^2 + mean2^2) = 54*(5^2 + 47^2) + 45*(4^2 + 42^2) = 200,736

So the combined standard deviation is SQRT(Sum of Squares / N - Mean^2) = SQRT(200,739/99 - 44.7^2) = 5.2

Long question short:  how can I implement the 2 formulas in my code?  Many thanks!  My apology for the lengthy question :)
