Hallelujah Handel!
With our Come & Sing day fast approaching, I have been delving a little bit more into the history of the Messiah and that of its creator, Handel.
Handel (thanks to Wikipedia)
It's difficult to know what to write exactly when there is so much information about Handel out there already, most of it far superior to anything I could add. On the other hand, I wanted to share some of what I've learnt for those of you who, like me, might only have a shaky knowledge and no time to start trawling through the internet to find out more. So music scholars look away now! Handel newbies or those wondering whether to come to the our next "Come & Sing Day", featuring The Messiah, read on!
Born in Halle, Germany 1685, Handel wasn't encouraged to study or play music at all by his family until a Duke overheard him play and advised his father to provide him with a musical education. After the death of his father in 1703, Handel first moved to Hamburg and later Italy where he composed and staged several operas. The popularity of his opera "Agrippina" led him to the employment of the elector of Hanover, which set him on the course of a such a close relationship with the German aristocracy and England that eventually he moved here. The rest, as they say, is history.
Germany or England?
Handel spent two years in England composing and staging operas, such as Rinaldo, at the Haymarket in London. Despite the success of Rinaldo, other operas were less popular and he was grateful for the patronage of Queen Anne who provided him with a £200 pension. However, her subsequent death and the Act of Succession, meant that Georg Ludwig of Hanover (Handel's German patron) inherited the English throne and became King George I. This enabled Handel to remain in England, where he stayed for the rest of his life.
Operas, Oratorio and Other Works
Royal Fireworks (Wikipedia)
While Handel, unlike Bach, was never a court composer as such, many of his most enduring works were written for royal occasions or people. His Water Music was composed for George I's ride down the Thames, Music for the Royal Fireworks was written for George II to celebrate victory over France, and of course, the Coronation Anthems, of which, "Zadok the Priest" has come to be sung at every British coronation since. So much of this is immediately familiar to our ears, even if we don't always know exactly where it has come from. Handel's output was overwhelming: 42 operas; 29 oratorios; more than 120 cantatas, trios and duets; numerous arias, chamber music; church pieces; odes, serenatas and 16 organ concerti. But I think it would be fair to say that the one piece of music that everyone knows is The Messiah.
The Messiah
This moving and uplifting piece of music was composed towards the end of Handel's life when the popularity of his operas was waning and his own health beginning to deteriorate. He had been invited to Dublin, a thriving merchant city where his music was still popular, and possibly the most crucial item in his luggage was the text for an oratorio by Charles Jennens: a libretto based on biblical texts of the Christmas story, Lent and the Easter resurrection and our ultimate redemption. Unbelievably, it only took him three weeks to write the music but the first performances were so popular that ladies were advised to take the hoops out their skirts to make room for more people in the audience! Funnily enough, Jennens never felt that Handel had done his libretto justice and even wrote that although "it was fine entertainment, not as good as he might and ought to have done"*. Despite initial criticism for presenting a religious work in a theatre, rather than a church, the Messiah went on to be performed successfully in London, including at charitable performances for the Foundling Hospital. It has even be said that Handel's reputation was saved by the "massive successes of his dramatic oratorios Messiah (and Samson), the monumental power and beauty of which ensured that, at his death, he was mourned as a national hero."
The Human Side to Handel
During my research for this blog, I have been struck by gems of information about the non-musical side of Handel's life. A lack of letters and personal diaries mean little is really known but here are some things that caught my attention. He never married and lived in the same house on Brook Streat, Mayfair, for over 40 years. He was clearly passionate about his music and quality of performances, but his short temper also led to an almost fatal duel with fellow composer Johann Mattheson, and rows with his singers that even included threatening to throw one soprano out of the window! But he was also full of compassion and warmth: the ode he wrote in honour of Queen Caroline, "How are the Mighty Fallen" was described by her daughter as "the finest, cruel, most touching thing ever heard"*. Proceeds from many of his performances were given to charities such as the Foundling Hospital and he willed most of his wealth to his servants and charities.
"Go to him to learn how to achieve great effects, by such simple means" (Beethoven). I don't think I can put it any better than that! Alternatively, come to our "Come & Sing" Day on 26th January at Streatham Space to find out for yourself what makes the Messiah such an incredible piece of music for a choir to sing.

                     })
                 }
        })
    }
}

In the interactionCreate it can't be the problem, remembering that my bot always had the reply error, so I always used the followUp

A: Within the button press event, you didn't call the function i.deferUpdate. Which would most likely state that the interaction failed, I would advise fixing this first by calling the function, you can do this by adding (); at the end, meaning it would be this: i.deferUpdate();.
Secondly, the reason why the message isn't being sent ephemerally is due to you using m.reply, you could instead replace it with interaction.followUp again, or replace m.reply with i.reply and remove i.deferUpdate(); to be able to have the message be sent as ephemeral.
Example:
i.deferUpdate();
m.reply({ // Object passed here

to
i.reply({ // Object passed here

If there is an error I made in this answer, reply so I can edit the fix.

Best Practices for Maximizing Condenser Efficiency
Sometimes overlooked and underappreciated, a power plant condenser can make or break your efficiency and power delivery goals. Understanding how important a role your condenser plays is a good step toward greater heat rate awareness.
As part of a university class on power generation systems that I teach, I show my students a Sankey diagram of the energy flow of the U.S. electrical generation system (Figure 1). Sankey diagrams are wonderful creations, which allow an easy visualization of a complex set of inputs and outputs to a system, as well as the relative impacts of these flows. When one views the Sankey diagram created by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) one is immediately struck by the large output of the graphic labeled "conversion losses."
1. So much wasted energy. Although basic thermodynamic laws prevent recovery of much of the conversion losses, as shown in this Sankey diagram of 2013 U.S. data, many opportunities remain for improving power plant efficiency. All values are in quadrillion Btu of energy. Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration
Last year, one of my students raised her hand and asked me, "So, that giant section of the diagram is all wasted energy?"
"Yes," I replied, "although some of it is necessary due to thermodynamic limits. For a typical Rankine-cycle power plant, the condenser dumps more than 50% of the input heat to the environment."
"But that's horrible! " she replied, with a rare passion from students (especially when taking a late-night class, when many students are somnolent). "Can't we do something about it?"
I paused, and then nodded to her, "Perhaps you've just found your calling."
An e-mail from her a year later revealed that, rather than entering my world of power plant efficiency, she had instead taken work designing roller coasters for a theme park chain. Well, you can't win 'em all.
And, unfortunately, many steam power engineers also feel as if they can't win the battle to make their plants more efficient. The multiple pressures of emissions regulations, budget cuts, and competition with gas turbines and renewables can leave Rankine-cycle power engineers feeling that efficiency improvements are not even on the proverbial back burner; instead, they've been put into a plastic bag and stuck in the deep freeze.
That attitude leads to missed opportunities, which is why this article focuses upon one of the components that accounts for part of the significant energy losses in our power generation system—the condenser. You'll learn ways in which both condenser performance and operation could be improved to help position a Rankine-cycle power plant to compete more effectively within the turbulent power generation environment most of us face.
Condenser Fundamentals
In a typical steam power plant, steam is sent to various stages of the turbine in order to produce power. After the steam exits the final stages of the turbine, where it has no more energy to be economically converted into power, it must be condensed back into a liquid in order to allow it to be pumped to the feedwater heaters, and subsequently the boiler. In basic operation, the condenser is a relatively straightforward device:
■ Low-energy steam or saturated steam enters a chamber filled with rows of heat exchanger tube banks.
■ Cooling water is passed through the inside of the heat exchanger banks, and heat is transferred from the steam to the cooling water.
■ The steam condenses and is collected in the hotwell in the bottom of the condenser.
■ The cooling water is either dumped to the environment (in an "open-loop" system) or circulated to cooling towers for re-use (in a "closed loop" system).
Some power plants utilize a different method of heat transfer, where the low-energy steam is passed inside heat exchanger tubes exposed to the air, and forced-draft fans blow air over the tubes to extract heat and condense the steam. These air-cooled condensers are less efficient overall, but are necessary when the power plant is located in a region where suitable water is at a premium. As utility-scale air-cooled condensers are rare, this article instead focuses on water-cooled condensers.
Condenser Performance
For a given steam turbine system, the performance of the condenser is largely a factor of how efficiently heat can be transferred from the steam to the cooling water. The faster that heat can be transferred, the faster the turbine exhaust steam can be condensed into liquid water.
One metric of this condensation efficiency is the condenser pressure, often measured as vacuum. A condenser that can pull a stronger vacuum not only results in a higher cycle efficiency but also more potential power output. For example, a power plant with a feedwater flow rate of 2.5 million pounds per hour and condenser pressure of 3 inches Hg would see a heat rate improvement of nearly 6% if station engineers could reduce the condenser pressure to 1 inch Hg. This improvement alone could satisfy most of the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) much-debated heat rate improvement goals for existing coal-fired power plants.
Tube Fouling. Condenser heat transfer is greatly hampered by fouling of the heat transfer tubes. In addition, long-term fouling deposits can increase tube corrosion by allowing corrosive chemical reactions to "hide" under the deposits.
While in rare cases scale deposits can form on the steam side of the condenser tubes, most tube fouling occurs on the water side of the tubes. Fouling can further be subdivided into inorganic and organic causes. Inorganic fouling is often composed of calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate, but it can also include manganese deposits, clay, and fine rock silt. In some cases, pieces of rotting or degrading cooling towers can become trapped within the condenser tubes or upon the surface of the tubesheet.
In the case of power plants that use seawater or river water in their circulating water system, fouling can take the form of mud, organic slime, and marine plants and animals. For example, the Madras Atomic Power station in India has found no fewer than 48 different types of marine organisms living within its cooling water systems, ranging from barnacles and snails to tube worms and sea anemones. One wonders if the owners have considered installing glass windows in their condenser cooling water tunnels, and charging admission as an aquarium.
Freshwater cooling systems tend to experience much less biofouling, and for closed-loop systems biofouling is often controlled by regular chlorination. Most slime-producing bacteria are killed at chlorine levels greater than 0.5 ppm to 1.0 ppm for an hour, although high levels of chlorine can also damage wooden components and structures in cooling towers.
The effects of condenser fouling can be serious. In one instance a nuclear power plant lost 50% of its generating capability due to a biological film within its condenser tubes.
Many power engineers believe that prevention is the best medicine for condenser fouling, and chemical treatment, such as reducing the pH of the circulating water by adding small quantities of sulfuric acid, is a common practice. Once the fouling has accumulated, however, some sort of physical cleaning will be required. Several cleaning methods are available for condensers, both online and offline (Figure 2). Using plastic or metal brushes to clean the tubes can yield a benefit of approximately 0.1 inches Hg in vacuum, while a more involved mechanical cleaning can reduce condenser pressure by 0.6 inches Hg or more. An average improvement in condenser vacuum of 0.35 inches Hg can result in a 30 to 70 Btu/kWh heat rate improvement, resulting in an annual fuel, operations, and maintenance savings of $60,000 for a 500-MW power plant (Figure 3).
2. Cleanliness is next to profitability. Regular cleaning (indicated here with the vertical bars) of a condenser can greatly improve its heat transfer ability, which results in a lower condenser pressure, lower condenser terminal temperature difference, and lower heat rate penalty.

3. "It looks like the inside of my arteries after too many donuts." That was one power plant engineer's joke after seeing this image. Unfortunately, the deposits in this photograph cost the utility 115 Btu/kWh of efficiency and $745,000 per year of increased fuel use. Courtesy: Stan Piezuch, Black & Veatch
Electrical Efficiency. Condenser systems need either circulating water pumps to supply them with cooling water or fans to supply fresh air to air-cooled tubes. (Because most air-cooled condensers are relatively new devices, they tend to already have fairly modern motors and controls; thus, the potential for savings is less.)
Water pumping systems tend to require from 8 to 12 hp/MW of generating capability. The main circulating water pumps and hotwell pumps combined can use from 0.5% to 1.0% of the total unit power, and old or inefficient pumps and motors can result in a significant heat rate and cost penalty.
A 2009 study by ABB (Power Generation: Energy Efficient Design of Auxiliary Systems in Fossil-Fuel Power Plants) estimates that in a typical 500-MW power plant, retrofitting the circulating water and hotwell motors with variable-frequency drives could result in an annual savings of more than 10,000 tons of CO2, more than $350,000 in avoided fuel and operations costs, and a payback period of under two years. Making a more modest investment in simply replacing the motors with high-efficiency, low-power-factor units would result in an annual savings of more than 3,000 tons of CO2, more than $100,000 in avoided fuel and operations costs, and a payback period of less than four years.
Don't View Your Condenser in Vacuo
Although it's tempting to draw a boundary around the condenser when evaluating regions for improvement, it's critical to remember that the condenser and the circulating water system are effectively one functional unit. Because the temperature and quality of the cooling water has a significant effect upon condenser performance, it's therefore important to consider improvements to the circulating water system contemporaneously with improvements to the condenser. Reducing cooling water temperatures is a sure-fire way to improve condenser performance: A decrease in cooling water temperature of 10 degrees F can improve the overall heat rate of a power plant by 1%.
Some have also discovered that problems with their condenser can lead to severe and unexpected impacts throughout other systems in their power plant.
One example is a case where a power plant suffered from severe copper deposits on the inside of its boiler tubes. Investigation of the root cause revealed that the dissolved oxygen level in the feedwater was excessively high, yet an inspection of the feedwater system revealed no obvious leaks. By careful monitoring and diagnostic work, engineers discovered that the condenser suffered from strange decreases in its vacuum levels at high generation loads, but not at low loads (Figure 4). Furthermore, dissolved oxygen levels rose sharply at low loads. This effect was calculated as costing the utility approximately $38,000 per month in lost efficiency and generation. An investigation of the problem revealed a leak in the condenser hotwell, which only occurred under high-vacuum conditions. Repairing this leak not only reduced the dissolved oxygen of the water but also resulted in a heat rate improvement of 800 Btu/kWh.
4. Tracking down condenser problems. Condenser leakage can manifest itself as increased dissolved oxygen levels. In this case, leakage primarily occurred during low-load operation. Source: Stan Piezuch, Black & Veatch
Capture Condenser Opportunities
Due to its significant effects on the overall performance of the turbine and feedwater systems, your condenser effectively sets the efficiency standard for the rest of your power plant. Recent years have seen many power plants focus on combustion controls, furnace tuning, fuel switches, and turbine upgrades to supply heat rate improvements. Although less attention has been paid to condensers, performing frequent cleaning and maintenance, as well as funding capital improvements to the condenser and circulating water systems, also have the potential to deliver significant improvements to your plant heat rate. ■

Nothing quite compares to the thrill of winning a coveted plush toy or a figurine from a UFO-catcher―Japanese Game Centre addicts, you know what I'm talking about! Entering one of these facilities, you will be immediately be surrounded by upbeat and even annoyingly adorable arcade music and blinding lights.
From the land of the rising sun comes Ton Amusement (トン・アミューズメント), bringing players an authentic Japanese Game Centre experience right in the heart of town. Located conveniently at Orchard Central 5F, this is a great way for you to spend time with your little ones for over some weekend fun, or let down your hair with your best mates after school or work.
As Ton Amusement strives to retain the originality of the Japanese arcade gaming experience, all their UFO-catchers present are largely skills-based and require a technical method to get your prize. What's more, they promise fresh and exciting concepts each season depending on the trends of Japan and new product releases. Gamers will be rewarded with only top-quality prizes directly from Japan. Depending on the season, a fresh stock of loot will come in to entice visitors even more! With Halloween and Christmas coming up, you can expect uniquely-themed, limited-edition toys and figurines from the machines.
Besides prizes, players can also look forward to the latest gaming mechanics brought in from Japan. The game centre houses a huge variety of trendy game machines, some brought in for the very first time to Singapore. Not only do you have your usual two-clawed and three-clawed UFO catchers, Ton Amusement also introduces two exclusive machines that are a first in SingaporeーSweet GoRound and TRYPOD.
With an assortment of L-sized plushies rotating inside the machine, players are to properly time the moment they choose to let the little hammer positioned at the top go down. When timed correctly, the hammer should hit the knob where the prize is dangling from to cause it to drop. Since the hammer drops down in a clockwise manner, the difficult part comes in predicting the lag time between the hammer dropping and the moment it hits the knob.
This game is all about testing reaction time and reflexes. The prizes are supported by several rods from the bottom; what the player has to do is to knock these rods down to cause their reward to fall. When the game starts, a red light will circle the prize at a fast pace where the rods are also positioned at. Players have to hit the button when the light lands on the rod. If they get the timing right, and the red light coincides with the placement of the rod, the rod drops, causing the prize to lose its balance. Players would have to drop all rods to win.
Retaining its retro gaming vibe, you can look forward to using tokens here at Ton Amusement. A single round is priced at 50 centsーeven cheaper than that of Japan!
Catch their grand opening on 29 Sep'18 (Sat)!
Ton Amusement opens its doors to the public from 11.30am.


Have we found the next Atlassian?
Two Aussie businesses are on a path to greatness in the US.
Software developers DolphinWorxs are about to tread a well-worn path that has brought many an Australian company fame and fortune.
The Melbourne-based business is hoping to crack the US market with its printing software.
Stephanie Gaddin, CEO of cloud-based printing software firm DolphinWorx, hopes the business is the next big thing in the States.
Chief executive Stephanie Gaddin says encouraging market research has the company aiming for a launch date within 12 to 18 months.
"We're expecting growth to be successful and to make some money out of it," she says.
Glenys Drayton, chief executive of Victorian-based Conni washable incontinence and bedwetting products, has already secured deals with retail giants Amazon and Walgreens.
Gaddin, husband Trentin Barnard and business partner Tobie Van Dyk began exploring the US market with a trip to Silicon Valley three months ago.
Gaddin says she was shocked by the sheer size of the US market, recalling how an American printer with a whopping $18 million turnover described himself as a medium-size business.
But she says the printer was still struggling against competition from the likes of massive online printer Vistaprint and that's where DolphinWorxs is hoping to fill a gap in the US market.
Gaddin says there is a niche in the US printing market largely ignored by the big players. She hopes her company's cloud-based desktop printing software will give smaller companies and even individuals a more competitive edge.
Mark Gustowski, global business manager of commercialisation advisory Pyksis, says many Aussie entrepreneurs chase the US market but few understand how much larger it is.
"The biggest reason companies fail is in recognising the US market is enormous and the Australian market is very small – it represents just 2 per cent of the US market," he says.
Gustowski says Australian business owners are attracted by the potential revenue jackpot, but underestimate the market differences.
"For small business it's a huge market that has a lot of money in it," he says.
Glenys Drayton, chief executive of Victorian-based Conni washable incontinence and bedwetting products, has been on business trips to San Francisco, Chicago and Texas.
During her most recent visit, Drayton attended a major trade show and secured deals with retail giants Amazon and Walgreens.
"When we pitched to the retailers I thought we didn't have a chance, but those trade shows really paid off," she says.
Before launching in the US in March last year, Drayton says she spent months researching the American market.
"I went online and did a lot of research and quickly established there was a massive market with a huge reliance on disposable products," she says.
Conni employs one person in the US, but this is set to increase next year when Drayton relocates to the states.
Gustowski says establishing reliable contacts, particularly distributors, in the States is crucial for success.
To make inroads in the US, entrepreneurs need to rely on a wide network of professionals including accountants and intellectual property attorneys.
Mentors are invaluable. Mentors could be other Australians who have already forged business success in the US, or Americans working in the same industry.
Gustowski says companies must do their homework and prepare a generous budget before testing the US waters.
"The worst-case scenario is a company that's gone to the US with no safeguards and has put their Australian operations in jeopardy," he says.
"A well-planned market entry strategy has everything from distribution networks, where the business will be set up, details about mentors and employees.
"And you need to have a good succession plan in place while the CEO focuses on business on the other side of the world.
Small-business owners may be daunted by the sheer size of the US market, but they have certain advantages over big businesses.
"Small businesses have the ability to be more agile and to move with market need," says Gustowski.
Like any tough challenge, Gustowski says cracking the US market takes persistence and perseverance.
"Very few companies have success, but the ones who do have a strong desire to succeed," he says. "They are going to hit a lot of roadblocks on the way and they're going to hear 'no' a lot.

The two companies have a shared vision to enable people to work and play from anywhere. Amit Pandey, CEO of Zenprise, said during that the call that it is clear that the BYOD trend is here to stay for mobile.
"There is an onslaught of devices in the enterprise today and most of these devices are untrusted," Pandey said. "We've always had the sense that devices are just the beginning and really it is about putting mobile to work."
Pandey noted that his company was already starting to move into application management. Now Citrix is bringing all the missing pieces to the table. The challenge with mobile app management is about the vast array of options that users have from an operating system perspective. Pandey said that it's no longer a Windows-only application world – there are now applications on multiple mobile operating systems.


Happy Monday loves! Currently sitting by the fireplace and typing this quick update from South Lake Tahoe! We're here at this beautiful winter wonderland working on a project which I can't wait to share with you guys this week. Anyways, just wanted to say a quick HELLO! and kick off this holiday week!


Welcome to Just Pause, the 3,782nd ranked Nintendo-focused news, reviews, and more website!
You may remember Just Pause from its original incarnation in the mid-2000's as one of the premiere spots for all of your gaming news, bringing you such breaking news as the announcement of Trauma Center: New Blood for the Nintendo Wii and other fantastic games. You may remember Just Pause for its constant game giveaways in partnership with various game companies, such as Ubisoft. You may remember Just Pause by its logo, slightly updated for the modern era. You might not remember Just Pause and that's just fine, we are glad you are here now.
After an 8 year hiatus, we decided our views on the gaming world could no longer be contained. The gaming landscape has changed, but games journalism has not. We plan to produce the same high quality content that made our name years ago. The big difference between today and yesteryear is the focus – instead of focusing on all platforms we have decided to narrow the focus down to just Nintendo games to provide a more focused approach to the gamer.
Scott Berlin is a political consultant and marketing expert, so naturally he likes to share his opinion. In his highly limited free time, he enjoys playing a plethora of Nintendo platform games. His favorite game is Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, which may be cliche but is the truth.
James's love for Nintendo started with the NES and Gameboy. The WiiU as the sole exception, he has owned every system Nintendo has ever made, including the Virtual Boy. He is hoping for a Nintendo resurgence in the next generation of games.

Only about one in four former homeowners who lost property during the housing crash will soon become buyers again as tight credit keeps many out of the U.S. real estate market, according to a National Association of Realtors study.
Of the 9.3 million owners who went through foreclosure or were forced to sell at a loss, about 950,000 already have bought again and 1.5 million more are likely to make a purchase in the next five years, the trade group said Monday.
The U.S. homeownership rate fell to 64 percent at the end of last year, a two-decade low and down from a high of 69.2 percent in 2004, according to Census Bureau data. The ownership rate will drop to 63.5 percent by 2016 and plateau for years, according to report last week by Goldman Sachs analysts led by Hui Shan.
The 9.3 million homeowners the Realtors group studied gave up their homes through more than 5 million foreclosures and 4 million other distressed transactions since early 2007, including short sales and deeds in lieu of foreclosure, Yun said.
The estimate that 950,000 buyers have returned to date is based on surveys showing they accounted for about 7 percent of existing-home sales since 2012, when those who lost property to foreclosure became eligible again for Federal Housing Administration financing, Yun said.
California, Florida and Arizona, which had the highest numbers of foreclosures early in the housing crisis, will see the biggest share of return buyers over the next five years, Yun said. Many who've repaired their credit and hope to buy again will face challenges in areas where home prices have recovered and affordability is out of reach, such as coastal California, he said.
From 2009 to 2013, tight credit stymied about 4 million potential homeowners, including both first-time buyers and so-called boomerang buyers who are coming back from losing property during the crash, according to a report issued earlier this month by Urban Institute researchers Laurie Goodman, Jun Zhu and Taz George.
Strict mortgage underwriting is keeping many from re-entering the market, but the loose lending that fueled the housing bubble and ensuing crash enabled unqualified people to become owners, Yun said.
"Many of them should not have gotten a mortgage to begin with," he said.

Q: Possible to programmatically pause/resume Azure's Application Gateway with Web Application Firewall status/billing? I'd like to perform R&D testing on the Azure Application Gateway with Web Application Firewall (AG-WAF), but just for two hours per day, but I don't want to pay for 24x7.
Is there anyway to programmatically start/pause/stop the AG-WAF for just two hours each day to pause the billing or must I terminate it and rebuild it each day to pause the billing?

A: If you can use powershell, take a look on the following commands:

Once the newly replaced image is clicked I want it to change back to the original image. Right now the image is replaced but doesn't change back. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.
HTML
<img src="{{ 'onesize-triangle.png' | asset_url }}" class="size-btn onesize-btn" data-quantity="{{ variant.available }}" data-id="{{ variant.id }}" id="imgClickAndChange" data-size="{{ variant.title }}" onclick="changeImage()"/>

          document.getElementById("imgClickAndChange").src = "{{ 'onesize-triangle_on.png' | asset_url }}";
      }
      else
      {
          document.getElementById("imgClickAndChange").src = "{{ 'onesize-triangle.png' | asset_url }}";
      }
}

A: == missing in if statement, do it as below:
  if (document.getElementById("imgClickAndChange").src == "{{ 'onesize-triangle.png' | asset_url }}")

plus in your else part first clear  previous src and then add new src  like below:

A: Check this demo
http://jsfiddle.net/AmqcY/
JS CODE
$(document).ready(function(){
  //use event delegation
  $(document).on('click','#imageid',function(){

    var $this= $(this);
    $('#toggle').toggle('slide',function(){
      //swap src of the image on toggle is completed
      var imgsrc = $this.attr('src');
      $this.attr('src',$this.data('othersource'));
      $this.data('othersource',imgsrc);
   });
  });
});

Q: Best way to convert org.threeten.bp.* and org.joda.time* to corresponding java.time.* class I am working on a project that uses a shared library which uses org.threeten for Date/Time. As the library is shared across many projects it cannot be upgraded to Java 8 yet (sigh).
The shortest way seems to be toString()/parse() combination
java.time.OffsetDateTime.parse(org.threeten.bp.OffsetDateTime.toString())
java.time.LocalDate.parse(org.threeten.bp.LocalDate.toString())

But more efficient way in terms of garbage creation will probably be the use of .of(...) methods:
java.time.OffsetDateTime.of(tt.getYear(), tt.getMonth(), tt.getDayOfMonth(), ...)

Have you stumbled upon a library that provides all this sort of conversions between Joda, Threeten and java.time classes?

A: The neatest way would be to fork ThreeTen-Backport and make the termporal interfaces extend their Java 8 counterparts. That way, you could do OffsetDateTime.from(threeTenOffsetDateTime) and so on.
I'm not aware of any existing fork that does this.

Jack Rose Old Lowestoft Society
Published: 9:00 AM September 18, 2009 Updated: 9:39 PM October 10, 2020
Memories of wartime evacuation were the order of the evening at the first of the new season of meetings at Trinity Methodist Church, as David Aldred and colleagues gave a high-tech DVD presentation of life as a youngster safe from the threat of war.
Memories of wartime evacuation were the order of the evening at the first of the new season of meetings at Trinity Methodist Church, as David Aldred and colleagues gave a high-tech DVD presentation of life as a youngster safe from the threat of war. Before the evening began, however, Chris Brooks announced the tragic death of a founder member of the society, Steve Edwards. Members then joined Chris in a minute's silent tribute.
The evening's show was dedicated to those small children, many now in their eighties, who were moved firstly from Dagenham to Lowestoft in September 1939, and then to the Lowestoft children themselves, who were in turn evacuated following the fall of Dunkirk which placed the town directly in the line of enemy action. Indeed, with the amount of naval and military action in and around Lowestoft at the time, and with its harbour and easy access into the surrounding countryside, Lowestoft had been earmarked by German forces as one of the first places to be secured by any invasion force - as a captured German air force map dated September 1940 proved. And it was amazing just how many snapshots of youngsters could bring back such a plethora of memories. Not all happy, unfortunately; one or two were not so fortunate with their billets; however the teachers who accompanied their classes to Worksop, for example, and other parts of the Midlands were fondly remembered. Naturally, there were poignant recollections of those youngsters who stayed in the town during the conflict, notably the destruction of the town centre in January 1942.
The evening also being the society's AGM, chair Chris Brooks, vice-chairman Keith Lewis, treasurer Peter Killby and secretary Ian Robb were duly re-elected for the forthcoming year. It was also unanimously decided to keep the annual subscriptions (which are now due) to �2, with 50 pence donation on the night to cover the cost of refreshments.
The next meeting will be on Friday 9 October at Trinity Methodist Church, High Street, when Dennis Meadow will be talking about the history of the Oulton Broad Motorboat Club. Contact the secretary on 01502 564601 for more details.


Trade waste is any liquid which is discharged from industrial or business premises to Waikato District Council wastewater system. We require that these properties obtain approved trade waste consent prior to discharge.
A trade waste consent will outline the treatment processes required prior to discharge into the wastewater network.
It is very important that stormwater is not directed into the wastewater system. It is equally important that wastewater and trade waste are not directed into the stormwater system as this can significantly affect both people's health and our environment.
Stormwater and wastewater systems are very different.
Stormwater discharges directly to waterways.
Wastewater is fully treated at the Wastewater Treatment Plant before being discharged to the receiving environment.
Find out more about our wastewater system, including more on stormwater and septic tanks.
Water supply and wastewater are two infrastructure considerations you need to consider in relation to obtaining consents when developing land, building or renovating. Find out more in land and property.
Any business which discharges wastewater into our Council's wastewater system may need to apply and have approved trade waste consent from Council before discharging to the wastewater system. See the application form at the bottom of this page - or pick up one from your local Waikato District Council office.
Your trade waste consent application should be submitted to Trade Waste Shared Services (see below for details). After that, our Trade Waste team will assess your application and provide assistance to ensure all requirements are met prior to granting an approval to discharge trade waste to the wastewater system.
Establishment of the three categories of trade waste: permitted, conditional or prohibited.
Establishment of specific criteria and uniform requirements for evaluating applications.
Installation of flow meters, samplers or other devices to measure flow of discharges.
Sampling and monitoring to ensure discharges meet with criteria.
Trade waste can contain pollutants like sediment, grease, oils and chemicals, which have entered the discharge water during industrial processes. When these pollutants enter the wastewater system they can block pipes, cause overflows and damage the wastewater network, placing both public health and the environment at risk. By minimising the pollutants in trade waste, you can protect the health of the public and the environment.
Think about what goes down the sink. The way your business treats waste affects everybody.
Everything that is put down the drain requires transport and treatment. The greasy waste produced in industrial processes can lead to blockages that can create overflows of wastewater into the environment. By producing less waste, your business can save money on trade waste charges and reduce pump outs of your grease traps.
The purpose of a grease trap is to prevent food scraps, oils and grease entering the wastewater system.
Fats and oils solidify and rise to the top and solids sink to the bottom, reducing the amounts of these substances that enter the wastewater system. The grease trap must be cleaned out regularly to remove the build up of grease and solids that occurs over time.
If regular cleaning is not maintained, grease traps can flood without warning, which could be unsafe to the public and the environment.
On July 1 2012, we joined with Waipa District Council and Hamilton City Council to launch Shared Services for trade waste services. A key aim is to deliver integrated, sustainable and well-managed services that also protect and enhance the environment.
As a result of this initiative – which was developed from the wider sub-regional three water's strategy – trade waste customers receive a consistent trade waste service across the three council territories. The sharing of staff and resources will ensure a streamlined and efficient business model.
For the councils, the benefits include improved compliance and monitoring, and an effective user pays approach to trade waste.
See below for our current Trade Waste and Wastewater Bylaw 2016.

Statement of President Joe Biden on the Passing of Senator Bob Dole
by The White House December 5, 2021 December 5, 2021
A month after being sworn in as President, one of the first conversations I had with anyone outside the White House was with our dear friends, Bob and Elizabeth Dole, at their home in Washington. Bob had recently been diagnosed with lung cancer, and I was were there to offer the same support, love, and encouragement that they showed me and Jill when our son Beau battled cancer, and that the Doles have shown us over the half century we've been friends.
Like all true friendships, regardless of how much time has passed, we picked up right where we left off, as though it were only yesterday that we were sharing a laugh in the Senate dining room or debating the great issues of the day, often against each other, on the Senate floor. I saw in his eyes the same light, bravery, and determination I've seen so many times before.
In the Senate, though we often disagreed, he never hesitated to work with me or other Democrats when it mattered most. He and Ted Kennedy came together to turn Bob's lifelong cause into the Americans with Disabilities Act — granting tens of millions of Americans lives of greater dignity. On the Social Security Commission, he led a bipartisan effort with Pat Moynihan to ensure that every American could grow old with their basic dignity intact. When he managed the bill to create a federal holiday in the name of Martin Luther King, Jr. — a bill that many in his own caucus opposed — I will never forget what he said to our colleagues: "No first-class democracy can treat people like second-class citizens."
Another bipartisan effort, the McGovern-Dole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition Program, provided school meals and food for nursing mothers and young children. It saved the lives of countless young people who would otherwise have died in infancy — and brought dignity to tens of millions of families at home and abroad. This work, for Bob, was about more than passing laws. It was written on his heart.
Bob was an American statesman like few in our history. A war hero and among the greatest of the Greatest Generation. And to me, he was also a friend whom I could look to for trusted guidance, or a humorous line at just the right moment to settle frayed nerves. I will miss my friend. But I am grateful for the times we shared, and for the friendship Jill and I and our family have built with Liddy and the entire Dole family.
Bob was a man to be admired by Americans. He had an unerring sense of integrity and honor. May God bless him, and may our nation draw upon his legacy of decency, dignity, good humor, and patriotism for all time.

Fourth Launches Payroll Service in U.S.
Fourth has brought to the U.S. the first payroll service specifically built to address the complexities of the hospitality industry. Fourth has been providing payroll services for more than 15 years to hospitality operators, such as Five Guys, Subway, Travelodge and Krispy Kreme, in the U.K. and has now gone live in the U.S. market with Chotto Matte, a Japanese-Peruvian restaurant operator, and Wagamama, the international restaurant and noodle bar chain.
Fourth's Payroll Service provides a one-stop solution for managing multiple employments, varying pay rates, shift work, variable hours, temporary staff and paid time off. Built-in payroll data analytics empower hospitality operators to make faster and better decisions, materially reducing the cost and inefficiencies associated with traditional payroll services.
Part of its Workforce Management solution set, Fourth's Payroll Service is integrated with its Workforce Planning tool. With data inputs on logged employee hours, this tool calculates employee gross and net wages, used by the payroll service team to generate payments to hospitality employees. All hospitality-relevant labor regulations are built into the platform to ensure operator compliance.
"Wagamama USA chose Fourth's workforce management solution because it provides a single platform for us to manage the entire employee lifecycle – and, crucially, with fully integrated payroll delivered by a team that genuinely cared about us," explained Paul Oakley, Wagamama U.S. Finance Director.
"There was an immediate and significant increase in accuracy due to our switch in payroll providers. They do deliver – our people are paid accurately and on time, tips are paid through payroll and taxed accurately, and staff can view their paystubs as well as their schedules on the Fourth app on their cell phone.
Oakley continued: "And we are getting results that go further than an accurate and timely payroll. Our labor spend has improved because the system's intelligence in labor forecasting allows us to focus on overstaffing. Creating a schedule is simple and saves hours each week compared to Excel and manual systems.
"Our approach is totally unlike other payroll providers," noted Sheryl Steele, Fourth's VP of payroll operations. "Our solution is specifically designed for highly complex hospitality payroll and copes easily with different rates of pay, staff who are seasonal, transient, full-time, part-time and those who carry out a variety of functions.

Artichoke Basille's Pizza will open its first Staten Island location at Empire Outlets, New York City's first and only retail outlet center.
This is a homecoming of sorts for Artichoke co-founders and cousins Francis Garcia and Sal Basille,who first learned the food business at their family's Staten Island restaurant, Basille's, before inventing their own unique style of "authentic New York pizza." In fact, they even wrote a cookbook, "Staten Italy," and their namesake Artichoke Pie, which has taken the city by storm with its unique combination of artichoke hearts, spinach, cream sauce, mozzarella and pecorino romano, was first conceived at the family's Staten Island restaurant Basille's and inspired Fran and Sal to open their own concept. Since opening the first Artichoke Basille's on Manhattan's 14th Street, the cousins have expanded to 12 restaurants across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens; Berkeley, California; and Miami, Florida's South Beach.
"It's an exciting venture to be opening an Artichoke Basille's Pizza in Staten Island, where our passion for pizza and admiration for the culinary and restaurant industries all started," said Francis Garcia.
"We've been swiftly expanding the brand, and to open a location in Staten Island is a natural choice. We're finally coming back home," added Sal Basille.
Artichoke Basille's Pizza will join Empire Outlets' diverse group of dining options curated by Michael Brais of Douglas Elliman Commercial, including Shake Shack, Wasabi Steak & Sushi, Mighty Quinn's Barbeque, Nathan's Famous, and MRKTPL, Staten Island's first-ever artisanal food hall.
MRKTPL, a 12,723-square-foot artisanal food hall with a 3,000-square-foot outdoor dining space, will include a curated selection of more than 30 diverse and unique concepts.

Seth Meyers Compares Trump's Firing Of James Comey To A Bad Episode Of 'Law & Order: SVU'
By Lisa de Moraes, Deadline	 May 16, 2017 at 9:41am
Originally Published by:
More from Deadline	:
Seth Meyers At Upfronts: 'Law & Order: SVU' Had A Really Big Year - It Got Elected President
John Oliver Demands Congress Intervene After Donald Trump Sacks And Threatens FBI Chief James Comey
Donald Trump Boasts Of Press Briefing Ratings While Threatening To Pull The Plug
At NBC's Upfront presentation Monday morning, late-night star Seth Meyers joked his network's Law & Order: SVU had a big year, having gotten elected President.
Hours later, Meyers continued that theme, on air.
Shortly before Meyers taped, WaPo reported Trump had revealed classified information to Russian diplomats who visited the White House the day after Trump fired FBI director James Comey. Trump surrogates, including Veep Mike Pence, insisted the firing had nothing to do with the FBI's investigation into possible Trump campaign collusion with Russian election meddlers. But, a couple days later, in an interview on Fox News Channel, Trump "flat out admitted" he fired Comey because, he thought the Russia investigation is a hoax, Meyers said.
Trump told FNC, "When I decided to [fire Comey] I said to myself, you know this Russia thing, with Trump and Russia, is a made-up story," dismissing it as an "excuse by the Democrats for having lost an election that they should have won."
"Normally, you only get a confession that blatant at the end of an episode of Law & Order: SVU, Meyers explained. "But Tump is like a guy who answers the door in the first five minutes, sees Ice T and says, 'I'm guilty.'"
Meyers called it "disorienting how blatant Trump is about the shady stuff he does" adding, "Trump just admits to wrongdoing, and then dares us to do something about it."

Finding Links & Making Them Work
Tutorial: Permanent Links to Online Documents: Finding Links & Making Them Work
Using a DOI
Where to Look
Test Your LInk
Permanent or Persistent Link / Durable URL / Permalink
You can't always return to an online document by copying the URL in the address bar of the page you're viewing.
Sometimes that URL is relative to your current search session, or the path you took to get there.
To find URLs that always link to a document, use a permanent link, also called a durable or persistent URL - these don't change or expire after you leave them.
Persistent links are designed to connect directly to an online document. Use them on a bibliography, course syllabus or reading list.
This tutorial covers how to find and use a permanent link that you can provide to others.
Click the gray tabs at the top of this box to learn about finding and creating permanent links.
Click the orange tabs above this box for:
examples of persistent links in specific databases
info about using a DOI as a permanent link
You've found an online document, and now you want to be able to provide others with a link to that document. Find a reliable permanent link.
Obtain the permanent link on the same page where you access the actual article.
You may have gone through several databases to get there; use the link on the final page.
Look for the words "permalink", "durable url", "persistent link", "permanent link", or similar wording. It's different on every site.
Sometimes you find it under a social media icon like "share" or "email".
A DOI may work - try it yourself. If it gets you to the article, it will work for other Trent users (instructors, students).
Be careful to right-click and copy the link, because it usually contains more information than what you're seeing in the text.
See details about DOIs by clicking on the "Using a DOI" tab.
Proxy Server for Off-Campus Access
There's one more step you need to take before you give this link to someone: authentication. In many cases, only authorized users will be able to access a document.
Consider your audience and try to provide a link that works for them. If it's someone with Trent credentials who may be working from off-campus, include the proxy prefix.
If YOU are working from off-campus, the link may already have the proxy built into it. Look for "trentu" somewhere in the link.
Example: http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org.cat1.lib.trentu.ca:8080/16/ch14/ch14_sec018.html.
If it isn't already included, add the proxy prefix in order for it to work for your instructor from off-campus.
Add this code to the beginning of your link: http://web2.trentu.ca:2048/login?url=http://
Example: http://web2.trentu.ca:2048/login?url=http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/16/ch14/ch14_sec018.html.
The proxy prefix allows authorized Trent users access to documents that are available because our Library provides access.
Keep in mind that the proxy server is only useful for Library resources.
If it's a free resource, or one that's not available through the Library, don't include the proxy prefix.
Off-Campus Access to Online Resources
When you're working from off-campus, you need to login to the proxy server.
The only way to know if the link will work for someone else is to open a new & different browser, and paste the link into the address. It has to be a different browser so that it has no memory of how you got there and it isn't already logged into the proxy server. You'd be surprised what browser histories remember!
If you don't have more than one browser on your computer, consider adding one. It's a good idea to have more than one browser, because many database features perform better in one or another browser.
Google "Firefox", "Internet Explorer", or "Chrome" to download the latest version of popular browsers.
You could also try using a different computer or mobile device to check your link.

We've been trying to change our diet, and eat better, but it's so hard not to eat out once in awhile, so we like to try out the local burger joints. I have a very sensitive stomach, so I have to watch what I eat. The first time I tried Squeeze Burger their food was fantastic, but I had a rough night, I wasn't so sure I wanted to try it again.
We normally give a new restaurant at least two tries and I am so glad we have that policy because the food was just as delicious the second time. This burger was monster size. The first time I ate half the burger and the second time I ate a little more than half.
The bacon is out of this world, it's thick and crispy, just like you made it from home. The cheese skirt is heavenly, about a 3″ "skirt" of cheddar cheese, that breaks off from the burger easily. Either eat it alone or break it off and put it back on the burger. Unless, you are big eaters do yourself a favor, split it with someone because the fries and custard are both incredible. You will want to save a little room.
I can't tell you when I've had a burger that was so satisfying. Everything is made fresh daily and it tastes like it. I didn't inquire as to the type of beef they use because frankly, sometimes it's just better not to know. <grin> I didn't get sick and that's all that matters to me. It probably still has GMO's in the meat, so I wouldn't eat this too often.
The burger was juicy and it was thicker than your regular fast food burger, the bun has sesame seeds that I normally avoid and while the bun is covered it's steamed on the grill and I really didn't notice them. The fries were seasoned, fresh, hot, and firm. They were delicious.
A pair of In-N-Out cheeseburgers.
I stopped in this afternoon determined to try the custard. I got chocolate and vanilla twirl, the small, it was absolutely delicious and I was prepared to hate it. It was creamy, with a very smooth texture, nothing grainy here, very thick, it reminded me of Wendy's Frosty, but this isn't ice cream, it's custard. I've tried all the frozen yogurt in town and didn't care for any of it. This was exceptional and it didn't upset my stomach one bit. I'm simply amazed.
We will be going back, just not too often, this is greasy, fried, fast food, that isn't so fast but this rates right up there with In-N-Out Burger, except the price. In-N-Out is simple, good, cheap food, and it's fresh, now multiply that by 3 cause that's what you will pay, but you'll get 4 times the burger.

I am confused why I am not getting notifications of new members who are applying to be part of my forum. When I log on as a user, I would expect to see notifications of new member applications since I am an administrator, but I don't see those new users unless I log in to the administration panel. Unless something is wrong with the forum I don't ordinarily log into the admin panel, so I am missing getting the latest registration applications.
Is there a way to set my username to receive these notifications so I don't have to log into the admin panel to see them?
Yes there is an option to receive email as as an administrator.
For that to work you need to set up your administrator email address first.
Then you would need to go to configuration, and select registration. There you can set how the users are being activated. By your hand, with their email address etc. And then there is a checkbox to receive emails for each registration.
Do you receive any notifications?
It could also be the case that there is no activity on your forum, and those notifications will only be sent if someone is browsing your website.
Thank you Throwholics; I should have been more precise. Yes I do receive EMAIL notifications in my email program, but I was expected to see a notification in my Forum notifier list (top right of the forum) just like notifications for new responses to my threads, etc.
Is that possible? When I log in and check my messages and forum posts, I was expecting also to see in the same place notice of new member applications. That is what I meant.
That's not possible in terms of a notification. But you can see a box like newest members.
Can I update this request by asking the same question again as of November of 2018? I never figured out a way to get notifications of new users the way I would like. When I log in I get a general notification that new users have been received, but it gives me no detailed information as to how many, when, or who they are. I would really expect it to tell me WHO the new users are, and give me a link to their profile, or at least a list of user names, so I can find and greet them.
Is there any way to get that function via plugin?
I think I have that plugin already, and I have set it to send me a message when a new user arrives. But I don't just want to know that "a new user" has signed up, I want to know the NAMES of the new users in that same notification so I can find them without going hunting. I see how to attach a message to the bot, but not how to include in the message the NAME of the new user. Is that part possible?
Of course. Just click on the question mark next to the selected bot action. There you'll find a lot of placeholders for your message.
If you need more support for the Community Bot, please use my support forum.
Thank you! That is what I was missing!
