Between 1946 and 1960 the inhabitants of French colonies possessed the rights of French citizens.

whats next – a pants/joystick mod?
Man I want these… I hope he/she/they make some more..I would give sexual favors… or cash I guess.
I can see the "d" key, at least I think so??
@bort "the y key is on the wrong side" how do you figure???
bort might have a different reason, but ive always known the y key as a 'right-side' key, since it is typed with your right hand, provided you are typing correctly.
because when you touch type, you hit the y key with your left hand, but on this keyboard its on the right hand side.
dude, i am making this this week! no doubt!
Surely these keyboard pants were inspired by the keyboard pants worn by Alex Jacobson in the award-winning game from 2000, Deus Ex.
Given that the Y key is closer to the right index finger on a standard keyboard layout, it should be on the right.
I think the biggest potential problem is doing laundry… has he got a solution for that?
Yeah as peter last mentioned how do you wash these?
Umm, the y key is on the left. I have always hit 'y' with my left hand too. Whoever said it is on the right side in the pic… are you blind?
Umm the y key is closer to my right index finger, so I've always hit it with my right index finger. Why would you reach further with the left index finger to hit it?
Bluetooth and this would be the most awesome. however, this is pretty awesome.
It'd be a lot cooler if they had finished the job.
sorry, i meant left when i said right and vice versa.
It seems more of a stretch to me to hit y with my right index finger. For some reason it seems totally easier to hit it with the left, so I have always done it.
So how do you share the keyboard ? .. Or do you ?
A touch pad that's positioned over your naughty bits ?
I think the best way to connect the two halves, would be to use conductive thread, and make circuit board patterns between the two, you could make straight runs but the circuit board pattern would add geek points.
as for connecting the 2 sides, wouldn't it have just been simple enough to connect wires to the "boards" on each end?
you could probably even loop it when it reaches the middle so that it has extra length to stretch… just make sure it stays away from the little man downstairs, don't want to choke the poor guy.
man! nevermind the y key id rather use my left hand then not have these at all!
but im still a littly curious about how you wash them aand keep the linking components(whatever they may be) from detaching or getting watter damaged..
Swine flu is currently a media celebrity,though quickly losing steam.
Those are awesome. The craftsmanship is very impressive.

In the spring of 1945, Polish Jewish Holocaust survivor Lena Kuchlar, a young teacher and physiologist, discovered dozens of orphaned Jewish children (ages 3-15) holed up at the Jewish Committee Center in Krakow. Inspired by the teachings of Janusz Korczak and employing progressive psychiatric methods, she slowly brought these damaged children back to life. The orphanage she established in Zakopane, Poland, fell pray to antisemitic attacks and in 1949 she smuggled the children out of Poland, first to France and eventually to Israel, to Schiller Kibbutz.
My 100 Children is based on Kuchlar's best selling, watershed 1959 autobiography. The book was translated into fourteen languages and Kuchlar became a minor celebrity in Israel, appearing on television and throughout the country. My 100 Children includes moving interviews with Kuchlar's own daughter and many of Kuchlar's "children" who recall the dramatic events.

December 10, 2015 - Comments Off on DRF Concludes Successful Second National Conference on The Right To Privacy in The Digital Age
DRF Concludes Successful Second National Conference on The Right To Privacy in The Digital Age
ISLAMABAD, NOVEMBER 27, 2015: Digital Rights Foundation organized its second National conference in collaboration with Privacy International on The Right to Privacy in the Digital Age in Islamabad on November 26th, 2015, with the objective of starting a debate around the lack of laws pertaining to cyberspace, with regard to privacy in particular. The conference featured experts from international rights organisations who delivered sessions and answered questions on the various aspects of privacy rights, as well the use and impact of surveillance technologies.
The conference brought together stakeholders including lawyers, parliamentarians, journalists, civil society, to discuss the different aspects of privacy rights in the context of Pakistan in the 21st Century.
L-R: Matthew Rice (Privacy International), Waqqas Mir, Ms. Sherry Rehman, Aftab Alam
Ms. Nighat Dad, rights activist and founder of DRF, welcomed the participants and explained the need for this conference which would work as a means of building the capacity of Pakistani journalists, activists and civil society organizations. The event was aimed towards understanding in depth the concepts around privacy and how mass surveillance violates privacy rights and international treaties. The goal was not only to create a greater awareness of privacy and surveillance issues, but to also provide the knowledge necessary to advocate for stronger data and privacy protection laws.
L-R: Naveed ul Haq, Waqqas Mir, Hassan Bilal Zaidi, Ms. Bushra Gohar, Iqbal Khattak
"To get death threats just for voicing my views, is not acceptable," pointed out the former member of National Assembly Bushra Gohar, who was among the panellists who debated on the importance of striking the right balance between security and freedom. "Online safety is as important as physical safety now," said Hassan Bilal Zaidi, staff writer for Dawn newspaper. "The security measures in Peshawar continue to haunt us," said Mr. Iqbal Khattak, Pakistan country representative and monitor for Reporters Without Borders for Freedom. Mr. Khattak pointed towards the need for the government to control the security threats instead of controlling opinions of the individuals.
"We need effective laws that filter out hate," said the parliamentarian Ms. Sherry Rehman, who serves as a member of the Senate. She also explained that at the same time, as an emerging democracy, we have certain laws that are an example for other countries. Lawyer Mr. Waqqas Mir, who moderated the sessions, was blunt in his view of those civil societies that have accepted the decision of the government to create laws that will block material as seen fit by it. There is a need to resist such curtailing on freedom of expression. "We have the right to privacy," as per Article 14 of the Constitution of Pakistan, he explained.
Conference participants took part in rigorous interactive session with panellists and came away with a greater understanding of what is at stake in the struggle to balance security concerns with civil liberties.

"Ceremony" is a song written by Joy Division, and first released as New Order's debut single in 1981. The song and its B-side, "In a Lonely Place", were written and recorded as Joy Division prior to the death of Ian Curtis. Both were re-recorded and carried over to Joy Division's re-formation under the name New Order.

New Order released the song as a single twice, firstly in January 1981 and secondly in September 1981 featuring new member Gillian Gilbert, with the latter recording later appearing on the album Substance.

History

Joy Division
"Ceremony" was one of the last Joy Division songs to be composed, with lyrics written by Ian Curtis. There are three recorded versions by Joy Division in existence. The first is a live version, available on the Still album, from their final concert at High Hall, Birmingham University on 2 May 1980. The second, available on the Heart and Soul four-disc box set, is from a studio session on 14 May 1980, four days before Curtis' suicide. It was the band's last recording. The third is a version recorded at the soundcheck on the afternoon of 2 May 1980 (along with "Decades") and is only available via bootleg. In all recordings, the vocals are only partially audible.

New Order
After the death of Ian Curtis, the remaining members of Joy Division regrouped as New Order. Their first release was a re-recording of "Ceremony" as a stand-alone single backed with "In a Lonely Place", with guitarist Bernard Sumner taking over lead vocals. Because Curtis had never transcribed the lyrics to "Ceremony" and because his singing was muted to the point of near-inaudibility on all surviving recordings, Sumner reportedly had to put them through a graphic equalizer to approximate the lyrics.

New Order "Version 1" March 1981
In March 6 of 1981, the first single of New Order and the first version of the song "Ceremony" was released by Factory Records (with the name FAC 33). Initially released as a 7" single, it was reissued as a 12" two months later. Martin Hannett (Joy Division's producer) produced the record and Peter Saville designed the sleeve artwork for both releases.

The 7" record was issued in a stamped gold-bronze sleeve. The 12" sleeve was a completely separate design: gold typography on a green background.

New Order "Version 2" September 1981
In September 1981, "Ceremony" was re-released. Gillian Gilbert played guitar on this new recording just after she joined the band. Martin Hannett again produced the record. The single was re-issued as a 12" only, with the same catalogue number (FAC 33). The original is approximately 4:34 minutes in length while the re-recording is 4:23. The re-recorded version was used on all subsequent compilations until Singles in 2005, when the original March '81 recording was released on CD for the first time.

There are differences in the recordings. Version 1 has a more "Joy Division sound", with throbbing bass, distorted guitar, spacey vocals, and solid drums also contributing a wash of cymbals. In Version 2 the bass is diminished, cymbals restrained, and the vocals are "drier". The guitar has a sound typical of that used on the album Movement. Drum hits in the opening verse are dramatically panned in the mix. There is a greater contrast between verse and chorus, with the latter sections reaching some of the emotional pitch of the original. In addition to the new recording of the A-side track, the B-side track "In a Lonely Place" was slightly remixed and added more synthetic "thunder" noises throughout the song. This alternate mix also appears on the second disc of Substance and subsequent compilations.

The sleeve (pictured) was changed to a light cream with a vertical blue stripe, though with the same motif and typography as the original 12" single. After supply of the re-designed sleeve ran out, copies of the originally-designed sleeve were re-used. Accordingly, the two versions of the song were packaged indiscriminately in the original sleeve. However, the run-groove notation (phrases pressed onto the vinyl) differ according to the version. The original says "watching love grow forever", while the re-recording's etching says "this is why events unnerve me"; both phrases are excerpts from the lyrics of "Ceremony".

Re-issue
The single was re-issued again in April 2011 for Record Store Day in a white sleeve. This limited edition release (only 800 copies) plays at 33 rpm. It features the New Order recordings of "Ceremony" (the pre-Gillian Gilbert take) and "In a Lonely Place" on one side, with the rare Joy Division recordings of the same tracks on the flip side—"Ceremony" comes from the 1997 Heart & Soul box set but the version of "In a Lonely Place" is a recently discovered complete take and not the same as the version featured on Heart & Soul. The Heart & Soul version is cut short at 2:32, whereas this newly discovered take runs for 5:45 and the full Ian Curtis vocal of "In a Lonely Place" is heard here for the first time, complete with the missing third verse.

Composition
"Ceremony" is a mid-tempo rock song in the key of C major. The song contains two implied chords, C major and F major, shown through the driving bassline. The song does not contain any keyboards, which became a common staple in Joy Division's later sound, and New Order's eventual sound. The song, in its original recording, featured a slower tempo than that of the September re-record, as well as clearer production and a more processed guitar tone. "Ceremony" utilises quiet-loud dynamics and artificial reverb to give the song its trademark flowing atmosphere. The song reverts to its quieter stage for the guitar solo, a practice carried over to New Order by Bernard Sumner.

Notable covers
The song has been covered by a number of artists, including:
Radiohead on their "Thumbs Down" webcast on 9 November 2007.
Galaxie 500 on their 1989 Blue Thunder EP (available on the re-issue of On Fire).
Xiu Xiu on their 2002 debut EP Chapel of the Chimes and on their 2007 compilation album Remixed & Covered
Chromatics on their 2014 extended play "Cherry", featuring Ida No
Day Wave on their 2016 live album "Spotify Sessions", recorded at SXSW 2016

The name MacKenneday was first used by a Strathclyde-Briton family from the Scottish/English Borderlands. It was a name for a dour or serious person. Further research revealed that the name is derived from the Gaelic nickname Cinneididh, which translates as grim-headed. It is doubtful that there is any ancient relationship between the Irish Kennedys and the Scottish Clan.
The Irish Kennedy's history dates back to about 900 AD, and there did not appear to be any direct relationship between the two families. However, in the 16th century, a sept of the Scottish Kennedy Clan did develop in Ulster, but they are undoubtedly migrants from Scotland, and had no previous link to the southern Irish Kennedys.

Early Origins of the MacKenneday family
The surname MacKenneday was first found in Ayrshire (Gaelic: Siorrachd Inbhir Àir), formerly a county in the southwestern Strathclyde region of Scotland, that today makes up the Council Areas of South, East, and North Ayrshire, where the earliest record of them dates from 1185, during the reign of King William the Lion, when a Henry Kennedy was reported to have been involved in a rebellion in Galloway but died in battle.
The Kennedys derived from a branch of Celtic Earls of Galloway (not to be confused with Gallway, which is in Ireland). Their power and influence in that region was great. In fact, there is a rhyme handed down through clansmen and bards from the year 1300 which runs as follows: 'Twixt Wigtown and the town of Ayr, Portpatrick and the Cruives of Cree. No man need think to bide there, unless he court with Kennedy.' [1]

Migration of the MacKenneday family
Unwelcome in their beloved homeland, many Scots sailed for the colonies of North America. There, they found land and freedom, and even the opportunity to make a new nation in the American War of Independence. These Scottish settlers played essential roles in the founding of the United States, and the shaping of contemporary North America. Among them: Alexander Kennedy settled in Charleston in 1763; Alexander Kennedy settled in Virginia in 1774; Angus Kennedy settled in New York in 1775; Hector Kennedy settled in Philadelphia in 1806.

The MacKenneday Motto +
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Avise la fin
Motto Translation: Consider the end.

...or should that be 'In like Flinn'?
by Jackson Baker
Éor make that 'in like Flinn,' as the GOP may finally have a mayoral candidate Is radio magnate/radiologist George Flinn the Republican nominee-presumptive for the office of Shelby County mayor? It begins to look that way. Dr. Flinn -- who owns a host of local radio stations and, as a radiologist, pioneered in (and got rich from) the now widespread art of ultrasound technology -- hankered to run for mayor of Memphis in 1999 but decided that the number _ and variety _ of candidates then available made that race a potential "three-ring circus" for a political neophyte like himself and therefore opted out. Back then he foresaw himself being matched against the likes of Hizzoner Willie Herenton (the eventual winner), then City Councilman Joe Ford, and wrestling eminence Jerry Lawler, among numerous others. As a potential candidate for the GOP nomination for county mayor, he won't have that problem of standing out in a crowd. Right now Flinn is all by himself as a potential Republican candidate. Nobody else seems to want the honor. "I'm ready to go. I can put together the money, I believe, and if they'll help me with the essentials of running a major campaign, I think I can mount one," said the good doctor this week. The "they" of his commentary was the local GOP leadership, who have been running down the list of potential Republican heavyweights and seen them all deign not to run. The latest to say no was Allie Prescott, the recently retired president of the Memphis Redbirds. Prescott was a new political face who would have been making his maiden race _ a fact that emboldens Flinn to believe that GOP eyes should now be turning to him. And local Republican chairman Alan Crone, who has been heading the party's increasingly desperate efforts to find a standard-bearer, may be ready for a session with the doctor. "I think that a successful candidate has to be both politically viable and financially viable," Crone said. "I think that George is the latter, and it's possible he could be the former, too." Any doubts Crone has on the matter are owing to Flinn's relative inexperience in the GOP wars, though he doesn't consider it to be an obstacle that Flinn's son Shea Flinn, a brand-new lawyer who is about to become a brand-new husband, ran unsuccessfully as a Democratic candidate for the legislature last year. "George has been fairly convincing that he is a life-long Republican himself, and I doubt that many people would be concerned about the fact that his son may have a different personal politics. That happens a good bit," Crone said. Crone does not buy into the widely accepted theory that name Republicans have ducked the race because recent demographic change has made it unwinnable for a Republican. "Not one of the people we talked to was of that persuasion," he said, meaning, among others, Prescott, District Attorney General Bill Gibbons, former Memphis city councilman John Bobango, and Shelby County Trustee Bob Patterson (who technically is still thinking about it). The GOP chairman then proceeded to qualify himself a tad, however. "I do think that political influence is cyclical, and it's probably true that the Republican Party will need to adapt to population tendencies. We've been heavily suburban and rural , but we'll probably see ourselves becoming more urban-oriented in the years to come.," opined Crone,who over the years has been a consistent advocate of Republican outreach into traditionally Democratic minority communities. Flinn believes that, in that respect, he is exactly what the, er, doctor ordered. "My main offices are in the center city. I've had a center city presence for years, and I understand the thinking of people who live in the center city." It remains to be seen what becomes of a Flinn candidacy or of a local Republican re-orientation, just as it remains to be seen what the results of next year's mayoral election will be. But change of some sort is clearly in the offing in a season when the incumbent Republican mayor, Jim Rout, has decided against running and potential GOP successors are scarce indeed, while simultaneously three active Democratic candidates _ Shelby County Public Defender A C Wharton, Bartlett banker Harold Byrd, and State Representative Carol Chumney _ are actively campaigning..

Steelers have to beat the Bengals to stay in contention for AFC North title
CINCINNATI – Three consecutive road games, three wins.
The Bengals pulled off a franchise first in November, putting some distance between themselves and the rest of the AFC North.
Now's their chance to start picking them off one by one, starting with Pittsburgh.
The Bengals can virtually eliminate the Steelers from the division title race on Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium, where they haven't played in nearly a month.
Cincinnati (8-3-1) is up by a game and a half over the rest of the division — Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Baltimore all at 7-5 — with four games left.
"This is when teams create an opportunity to separate themselves and really have to come out and prove who they are," left tackle Andrew Whitworth said.
For a long time, the Steelers and Ravens contended for the division title while the Bengals and Browns tried to catch up. From 2006 until the start of the 2012 season, the Steelers won 10 of their 12 games against the Bengals.
Cincinnati got its breakthrough at Heinz Field on Dec. 23, 2012, knocking the Steelers out of playoff contention while advancing to a wild-card berth. Last year, the Bengals split their season series but won the division title.
"Since I've been here the past five years, Cincinnati has steadily gotten better every year," Steelers linebacker Jason Worilds said. "And now they're on top. So while they were a challenge those first few years, they're definitely more formidable the past couple years than they've been."
With a win on Sunday, the Bengals could knock the Steelers to 2½ games back with three to play — a daunting gap. The Bengals go to Cleveland the following week with a chance to knock the Browns out of it as well.
If the Steelers win, they'll have a chance to overtake the Bengals because the teams finish the season in Pittsburgh.
"I wish I could see the future, but I'm not Miss Cleo," Steelers cornerback Ike Taylor said. "So, time will tell what's going to happen there."
It doesn't take a clairvoyant to see the importance of this one.
Some things to watch on Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium:
LE'VEON'S LOAD: Pittsburgh running back Le'Veon Bell has a message for coach Mike Tomlin: More please. Bell is third in the league with 216 carries, and his 65 receptions are tied for 15th. Bell was on the field for more than 80 snaps during a loss to New Orleans last Sunday.
"At the end of the game I don't feel fatigued or tired, I still feel energetic," Bell said. "I just want to get as many carries and touches as we need to win the game. If it's eight, so be it. If it's 25, so be it."
HITTING THE WALL: Rookie wide receiver Martavis Bryant's emergence keyed a midseason surge that put the Steelers back in the thick of the AFC North race. Opponents are adjusting. Bryant dropped a touchdown pass against Tennessee three weeks ago and had only one catch for 23 yards against the Saints.
"They're keeping an eye on him," Ben Roethlisberger said. "He obviously came into the league into his first couple of games and made some pretty big splashes. The secret is not there anymore. It's good because now he works hard and it's not just going to be easy for him."
WHICH ANDY SHOWS UP? Andy Dalton was sick and threw three first-half interceptions during a 14-13 win at Tampa Bay that put the Bengals in control of the division on Sunday. He's been highly erratic all season, leaving him one of Cincinnati's biggest questions heading into the biggest games. He came through each of the past two years, leading the Bengals on strong closing runs — 7-1 in 2012, 5-1 last season. Does he have another one in him?
CHIN UP: Bengals punter Kevin Huber suffered a broken jaw and cracked vertebra at Pittsburgh last December when Terence Garvin decked him during Antonio Brown's 67-yard punt return. Garvin wasn't penalized but later got fined $25,000. Huber has made a full recovery and ranks second in the NFL in gross average and net average. He holds no grudge over the hit.
"The biggest thing that changed with me is looking around more, being aware of people around me and not just running around aimlessly and trying to get in the way," Huber said.
HARRISON'S RETURN: Linebacker James Harrison spent an uneventful season in Cincinnati last year, and then returned home to Pittsburgh. He has kept in touch with several Bengals, though he won't say which ones.
"There's guys that I talk to that play there now," he said. "I'll talk to them as I have been since I left."

That is what I had always thought: whatever I live through will only make me stronger, make me tougher. Oh, how foolish I was back then. I was so convinced I needed no one to survive. I had no use for sentimental feelings and such displays were weaknesses in myself. They had to be, since they were the same emotions I used to manipulate others. It took me years to realize how wrong I was.
What was I missing then? That whole December?
I give my usual lie: I don't remember.
I can almost see their faces in the shadows. Almost. Largo is there, Piro as well. So many other nameless faces from the streets of Megatokyo stare back at me, all of their looks disapproving. I don't care. They are just shadows, they can't touch me. They are just ghosts, they aren't real... As I turn to gaze back into the fire, one shadow changes suddenly...and there she is, smiling as sweetly as always: Ping.
"<Oh, Ping. You haven't changed a bit, you are exactly as I remember.>"
I catch myself then as realization hits me. Of course she is exactly the same as I remembered; she's just a memory. That's all she is now, shadows and my own haunted memories. The fact that she's been gone for ten years now doesn't mean anything. For a moment, she was alive again, and I lost her all over again. The pain is still there, I don't think I ever let it heal... And, so for the next hour or so, I let my grief out, in my solitude where no one but the shadows can see me.
What could I do but run and run and run...?
And, that's what lead me here, to a lonely cabin in the backwoods. I'm miles from my nearest neighbor. Alone, utterly alone. At least, that's what I had thought. The shadows didn't appear at first, but slowly, they crept in. With them came the realization I had never escaped. When I had finally admitted this to myself, a vague hope grew within me. A hope that is the only thing keeping me alive now.
I've already wasted so much.


If from the point of view of Bo eye, obviously Rolex, OMEGA, Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin watches are my best choice. But some of the recent performance of Dhgate watches, let me be blind, completely indifferent. So the original plan and to explore the content, I decided to postpone for two days, we have to look at the Dhgate watches. In a recent auction market, we can clearly see that some Dhgate watches's valuation, transaction price is rising (when not renamed Dhgate watches Dhgate watches). Even the Dhgate watches Chronograph valuation has reached the level of Paul Newman Rolex, surprising. Therefore, I want to do today, is for you to show the value of game player rising Dhgate watches chronograph. The rising value of the collection will lead to an increase in the sale of watches, reputation and status, and the copy of these watches have been made.
Such as watch Monaco, Calera, is the most popular Dhgate watches in the market model. In the auction market, the hot Dhgate watches Chronograph (the prefix of this period Dhgate watches with no TAG) and we are not to be found in the market model, but for a long time, there has been no re launched the modern version of the Autavia Dhgate watches Chronograph (Dhgate watches this year launched a copy of Autavia, I after the talks).
Numbers are always the most intuitive. Let's look at a few numbers first.
"The first use of the Dhgate watches Autavia on behalf of the disc and the second generation pointer" version, valuation of HK $650 thousand to HK $850 thousand, about 570 thousand yuan to 740 thousand yuan.
Dhgate watches Autavia "second generation", the valuation of HK $160 thousand to HK $240 thousand, about 140 thousand yuan to 210 thousand yuan, and ultimately to Hong Kong dollars turnover of 200 thousand yuan, about 170 thousand yuan.
Dhgate watches Autavia "third generation", the valuation of HK $160 thousand to HK $250 thousand, about 140 thousand yuan to 220 thousand yuan, the final turnover to HK $275 thousand, about 240 thousand yuan.
These price figures, for those familiar with the watch two market players, you can see at a glance, these prices in the auction, the two market can buy what watches, you are also very clear. Autavia "first represents the price interval version valuation disc, second generation pointer, you can buy Rolex Daytona Autavia Paul Newman; the" second generation "and" the third generation "price range, you can buy A prefix 5402 Royal oak. Either Paul Newman or A prefix oak is the hottest watch in the auction market. From the general point of view, Dhgate watches watches and they are not in the same class. Recently the situation also surprised me, with Autavia specific models as the representative of the Dhgate watches, sudden rise.
Although we know that the auction market sometimes has some controversy, there will be some left handed down the right hand, buyers and sellers discuss each other's good situation. Objections are normal in the face of sudden soaring prices. Although I often discuss some trading quotes with other players. But today we're talking about watches, not objections. Next, I'll show you what a Autavia watch is and why it's so valuable.
Dhgate watches Autavia (when no TAG) in China is not a well-known watch, but in foreign countries very fire. Autavia is all Dhgate watches Watch, a watch, the most important, if only from the value and status that is more than Monaco and Calera. Neither Monaco nor Calera is currently trading at a price that can exceed Autavia. Autavia this watch is the source of the Dhgate watches: want to enter the U.S. market, the operator is Jack Hauja heuer. Jack Hauja liked racing cars, so he made a watch for the racers, which was Autavia (1962, early morning, early morning in Monaco). The word "Autavia" is a combination of automobile and aviation (car and air), which means the time watches for racing and flight design. The story is like this, watches can fire, the story is on the one hand, the important thing is better watch, good looking. Autavia is the biggest characteristic of two large timing disk, we can clearly see that the timing Dhgate watches Autavia chronograph watch disc than other large, which has become the unique features of this watch, a very high degree of recognition, which is one of the important reasons is to ignite the fire. At the same time, another important reason is that Autavia has been worn by many celebrities, including Steve, McQuee, and Jochen Rindt (because Jochen Rindt has worn the second generation Autavia, the second generation Autavia, commonly known as Rindt). I remember Autavia had 9 generations (if wrong, please correct), the first 3 generations of high value, the latter generations of value is not as good as the front. So I'll show you the first three generations of Autavia, and you can refer to the auction market price of each generation at the beginning of the article.


OHSWEKEN — It was another exciting afternoon at the Gaylord Powless Arena Saturday when the Six Nations PeeWee's played to a 3-3 tie game with Delhi, Simcoe Warriors defeated Six Nations Bantam Blackhawks LL's, 2-1, and the Six Nations Midgets doubled up on the Delhi Rockets 6-3.
Starting with the Midgets, Delhi accounted for the first goal of the game when Richard Johnson couldn't get to a loose puck in time, two minutes into the game. Sandy Porter put things right for Six Nations from Justin Gardner with two minutes left in the period.
Jake Smith looked a little like Brandon Montour for the Ducks when he slipped into the face-off circle unnoticed by Delhi defenders with his gun cocked and ready. Conner Smith noticed however and slid a perfect tape to tape pass right in Jake's wheelhouse and with one motion, Six Nations held a 2-1 lead. Gardner also assisted.
Right off the third period face-off, Porter quickly made it 3-1, unassisted. Alex Ash cut into the Six Nations lead with a Ruch down the wing, untouched, into the Six Nations zone, swooped across the crease and put it home for the 3-2 goal.
Ryan Scott resorted the two goal edge with a backhander across the crease into the long side of the net, vacated by the Delhi goaltender who followed the pick carrier instead of the puck.
With 5:45 left in the game, Delhi scored in close to make it a one goal game again. Gardner one-timed a wrist shot set up by Zach Martin and George Bomberry in response. The final blow came with 1:39 left when Ryan Scott bowled his way through the Delhi players, through centre ice, into the slot and finished it off with Six Nations sixth goal, with a high wrister over the glove.

Em matemática, multiplicação complexa é a teoria das curvas elípticas E que tem um anel de endomorfismo maior que os inteiros; e também a teoria de mais altas dimensões das variedades abelianas A tendo suficientes endomorfismos em um certo sentido preciso (isso aproximadamente significa que a ação sobre o espaço tangente de A é uma soma direta de módulos unidimensionais). Visto de outra forma, contém a teoria de funções elípticas com simetrias extras, como são visíveis quando o retículo de período é o retículo do inteiro de Gauss ou retículo do inteiro de Eisenstein.

Mental illness is a growing problem in society and is increasingly affecting productivity and well-being in the workplace, according to a new OECD report.
Sick on the Job? Myths and Realities about Mental Health and Work says that one in five workers suffers from a mental illness, such as depression or anxiety. Three quarters of workers with a mental disorder report reduced productivity, compared to one in four workers without a mental disorder. Work absences are also much more frequent and about 30% to 50% of all new disability benefit claims in OECD countries are attributed to mental ill health. People with a mental disorder are two to three times as likely to be unemployed as people with no disorders. This gap represents a major loss to the economy, as well as for the individuals and their families. Moreover, the share of workers exposed to work-related stress is increasing, the report notes.
The report challenges some myths and urges policy makers to look for new solutions. It urges early intervention because half of all mental disorders start in adolescence, and notes that the population claiming disability benefits is getting younger. Good working conditions, monitoring of sick leave behaviour; and help with reducing workplace conflicts are among the remedies suggested in the report. Visit www.oecd.org/els/disability.
The crisis has hit some areas far harder than others, in job losses for instance, and huge regional variations in economic and social conditions within a country require a rethink of how governments design economic policies, says a new report. The OECD's first Regional Outlook calls on policy makers to pay greater attention to regional factors such as amenities, infrastructure and demographics, as well as industry specialisations and networks, rather than relying on government transfers.
Gross domestic product (GDP) growth in the OECD area decelerated sharply to 0.1% in the fourth quarter of 2011, against 0.6% in the third quarter, quarterly provisional estimates show. The OECD total masks diverging patterns however. In the US, GDP growth accelerated to 0.7% in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared with 0.5% in the third quarter, while in Japan GDP declined by 0.6% following the strong technical rebound (1.7%) in the third quarter. In the euro area and the EU, GDP also fell, by 0.3%, for the first time since the second quarter of 2009.
Meanwhile, composite leading indicators from the OECD, which are designed to anticipate turning points in economic activity, pointed to slower activity in most countries but showed stronger signs for Japan, the US and Russia.
Growth for six Southeast Asian economies, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Viet Nam, is expected to reach 5.6% during 2012- 2016, according to the latest OECD Southeast Asian Economic Outlook released at the end of November. Latin America and the Caribbean countries are projected to grow 4.4%.
Consumer prices in the OECD area rose by 2.9% in the year to December 2011, compared with 3.1% in the year to November 2011. This easing in the annual rate of inflation mainly reflected the slower growth in energy prices, which increased by 8.1% in the year to December, up from 4.1% in November.
The OECD area unemployment rate was stable at 8.2% in November 2011, unchanged since August. The rate has hovered at this level since January 2011. However, stability at the aggregate level masks different national situations. The euro area's unemployment rate remained at 10.3% in November– the highest rate recorded since the start of the global financial crisis.
With recovery slowing, swift implementation of new reforms is needed to ensure sustainable, inclusive long-term growth, according to the OECD's latest Economic Survey of the Czech Republic in November. The ongoing recovery has been weaker than in neighbouring countries, constraining the pace of convergence with more prosperous European countries. Worsening trade performance and declining domestic demand will limit economic growth to 1.6% in 2012.
In recent years Israel has strengthened its environmental policies and now should develop a green growth plan that combines environmental, economic and social policies, the OECD Environmental Performance Review of Israel says.
For 35 years, the Netherlands has surpassed the UN target of spending at least 0.7% of its national income on Official Development Assistance (ODA). National belt-tightening will extend to ODA, albeit keeping it at 0.7% by 2012.
The Russian Federation must further modernise its economy to meet long-term development and income inequality challenges, while improving energy efficiency, the OECD said in two reports, a Review of Labour Market and Social Policies in the Russian Federation and the Economic Survey of the Russian Federation, both issued in December.
The Slovak Republic has made major progress in protecting the environment and enhancing the quality of life, but as the economy strives for recovery, the OECD Environmental Performance Review of the Slovak Republic recommends that it strengthens environmental policies and institutions, promoting green growth to help achieve its economic goals.
Though the economic crisis has forced Spain to cut public spending, including to development co-operation, its aid has almost doubled since 2003, the OECD's Review of the Development Co-operation Policies and Programmes of Spain notes, though urges more focus.
Sweden's 2008 reform of its labour migration policy, now one of the most open in the OECD, has helped businesses hire foreign workers quickly and cheaply, without hurting conditions for local workers, according to a new report in December. Visit www.oecd.org/newsroom.
One good indicator of the health of the world economy is steel, which underpins industrial output and construction. World steel production and demand growth slowed in 2011. In the first three quarters, production reached 1,514 million metric tonnes (mmt) in annualised terms, representing a 9% increase from the same period in 2010. In China, in the first three quarters of 2011, steel production increased by 12% to 703 mmt annualised. International trade in steel expanded more slowly too.
World finished steel consumption increased by 7% in the first three quarters of 2011 compared to the same period of the previous year, marking a slowdown from 15% in the year earlier period. Annual growth rates of steel consumption from January to September 2011 stood at 6% in North America and Europe, 11% in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and 9% in Asia.
Policy makers seeking to effect green growth policies now have a new information and advice resource, after four leading global organisations–the Global Green Growth Institute, the UN Environment Programme, the World Bank and the OECD–agreed in January to create a Green Growth Knowledge Platform. The initiative will address major knowledge gaps in green growth theory and practice, and aims to underpin local, national, and global economic policy making, and collaboration. Visit www.greengrowthknowledge.org.
Expenditure on education and research represents a very long-term investment. It initiates cumulative processes that extend over decades and, as a rule, does not yield quick returns. On the other hand, public finance has, by tradition, been shortsighted.

L'église Saint-Louis-de-Gonzague est une église catholique française, située en Haute-Savoie, sur la commune d'Essert-Romand. L'édifice est placé sous le patronage de saint Louis de Gonzague.

Historique
Montriond qui a connu son indépendance dès 1717, les communiers font la demande pour qu'Essert-Romand soit une paroisse à part entière, cela ne se réalisera finalement qu'en 1824.

Le nouveau curé Père Favrat originaire de Bellevaux, s'initie à la construction d'une nouvelle église, dédiée à saint Louis de Gonzague, fut achevée en 1832.

Description

On y voit encadrée dans le mur, la pierre d'autel de l'ancienne chapelle du hameau du Crêt qui a disparu aujourd'hui.

La statue de la Vierge est due à Laurent Baud.

L'édifice fut restauré à plusieurs reprises.

En 1936, un nouvel autel en marbre fut posé et réalisé par une entreprise d'Annecy.

En 1993, l'intérieur de l'église fut entièrement repeint en respectant les peintures d'origine.

A pro-transparency and Non-governmental body – HUMAN RIGHTS WRITERS ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA (HURIWA) has described as "fraudulent"; "criminal" and highly unsustainable, the huge budgetary components presented for 2019 polls by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to the National Assembly.
Besides, HURIWA accused the hierarchy of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of being deliberately averse to openness, transparency and accountability in the proposed budget by adopting some opaque nomenclatures and sub-heads to mask their deliberate plots to probably swindle the Nigerian state of huge amount of public fund in the guise of conducting election.
HURIWA condemned the extensive delay by the federal government in presenting the proposed 2019 election budget just as the Rights group expressed bewilderment that a government that claims to be operating on the mantra of anti-corruption could wait until the eleventh hour before presenting a budget for a national event of significance such as a general election that is only few months away.
In a media statement, by the National Coordinator Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko and the media Affairs Director Miss Zainab Yusuf, the Rights group specifically condemned the current hierarchy in the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for failing to open up the procurement activities that take place within that agency.
It therefore urged the National Assembly to conduct extensive forensic examination of the specific components of the overall budget of N189.2 billion presented to it by INEC so as to bring the entire budget to comply with extant provisions governing procurement in accordance with the Bureau of public procurement Act.
HURIWA also accused the electoral panel of duplicating several sub-heads of the budget proposal which shows that there is some kind of a sinister AGENDUM which woyld undermine the global best practices of strictest compliance to the principles of transparency and accountability.
HURIWA dismissed the entire proposal as the biggest scam of the century just as it calls on Nigerians of goodwill to speak up and monitor the Independent National Electoral Commission closely to stop the leadership of that agency from destroying our hard earned democracy through subterfuge and deliverate sabotage.
"We believe that the entire exercise of presenting the 2019 Election budget in August 2018 when it could have been done in January is a motive for sabotaging the smooth conduct of the election or it might be a poorly crafted strategy to blackmail the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to approve the shambolic budget which invariably contains many suspicious sub-heads that are just the well choreographed schemes to siphon public fund in this era of severe economic adversity".

Q: Почему параллельный map работает на порядки медленнее последовательного? Хотел поэкспериментировать с параллельностью в Rust, в частности - сравнить последовательный map из стандартной библиотеки и параллельный map из rayon. Вот код бенчмарка:
#![feature(test)]

extern crate test;
extern crate rand;
extern crate rayon;

#[cfg(test)]
mod tests {
    use rayon::prelude::*;
    use test::Bencher;

    #[bench]
    fn iter_test(b: &mut Bencher) {
        let vec: Vec<i64> = (0..20000).collect();

        b.iter(|| -> i64 {
            vec.iter().map(|x| x * x).sum()
        });
    }

    #[bench]
    fn par_iter_test(b: &mut Bencher) {
        let vec: Vec<i64> = (0..20000).collect();

        b.iter(|| -> i64 {
            vec.par_iter().map(|x| x * x).sum()
        });
    }
}

Результаты:

test tests::par_iter_test ... bench:   1,915,544 ns/iter (+/- 40,786,648)

Почему параллельный map настолько медленный? Я конечно понимаю, что на распараллеливание какие-то ресурсы тратятся, но не столько же. Может последовательный map как-то компилятор оптимизирует? Как тогда написать бенчмарк, на примере которого можно будет почувствовать преимущество параллельного map?
P. S. Пробовал под передавать в map рекурсивный факториал - результаты отличаются не так сильно, но последовательный map все равно быстрее.

A: Потому что накладные расходы на распараллеливание на порядки превышают полезную нагрузку в данном случае.
На моей машине (Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz) параллельная версия начинает обгонять на 16 000 000 значений, а на 32 000 000 обгон достигает ~25% и дальше уже сильно не растёт

Q: How to set background color of StackPane node to transparent using javafx/css and fxml Trying to create a drop-shadow to my BorderPane. I need to use a StackPane to allow room for the drop-shadow. The problem is I cannot seem to set the background of StackPane to transparent. I am using transparent style for my primiaryStage.
There are other example using javaFX which work but, I can't figure it out when using fxml.
.StackPane{
  -fx-background-color: transparent;
}

This still shows a white background behind my BorderPane
public class Main extends Application {

    public static Stage Window;

    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws IOException{
        Main.Window = primaryStage;
        Window.initStyle(StageStyle.TRANSPARENT);
        Window.setResizable(false);
        FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("Homepage.fxml"));
        Parent root = loader.load();
        Window.setScene(new Scene(root));
        root.getStylesheets().add(getClass().getResource("main.css").toExternalForm());

        Window.show();
    }

A: I found that when using a scroll pane it would dynamically create stack panes under it during runtime. Using scenic view I was able to see the style class name as 'viewport' and could change the background color that way.

A: Setting the window style might not work because the OS you are working on doesnt suppot that style. The documentation says about this:

On some platforms decorations might not be available.

But for a workaround for the stackpane, you should provide an example image of what you are aiming for. Right now its rather unclear what exactually you are trying to accomplish.

From broken bones to medical costs and fatalities, auto accidents often turn the lives of those involved upside down and also have a negative impact on their family members. In Houston, Texas, these crashes appear in the news far too often and drivers should try to prevent an accident whenever they are on the road. From a deadly car crash that leaves families with permanent emotional pain to an accident that leaves someone disabled for the rest of their life, these incidents are incredibly tragic.
On behalf of Grimes & Fertitta, P.C. posted in Fatal Motor Vehicle Accidents on Tuesday, November 24, 2015.
Whenever a traffic crash happens, there may be serious consequences that permanently change the lives of those involved. Sadly, some result in the loss of life and a disturbing number of fatal motor vehicle accidents have occurred in Houston, and throughout the state of Texas. For those who are trying to deal with the consequences of losing a loved one in a car crash, it is very important to explore all avenues.
On behalf of Grimes & Fertitta, P.C. posted in Fatal Motor Vehicle Accidents on Tuesday, October 27, 2015.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, there were more than 30,000 fatal motor vehicle accidents across the country in 2013. Although this number represents a decline in the number of fatal accidents when compared to some of the previous years, such as 2005 when there were more than 39,000 fatal crashes, the numbers are still very alarming and represent scores of lives that could have been saved had drivers been more responsible. In Houston, Texas, and across the United States, fatal motor vehicle accidents remain a serious problem and drivers should focus on safety at all times.
On behalf of Grimes & Fertitta, P.C. posted in Fatal Motor Vehicle Accidents on Tuesday, October 20, 2015.
When someone is involved in a fatal auto accident, there are often far-reaching consequences on top of unbearable emotional devastation. For example, the loved ones they leave behind may be unable to cover funeral expenses or they may experience other financial challenges brought on by the death of their family member, such as a lost source of income. In Houston, and across Texas, people who are suffering with the ramifications of a deadly car accident should explore all avenues.
On behalf of Grimes & Fertitta, P.C. posted in Fatal Motor Vehicle Accidents on Thursday, October 1, 2015.
On busy city freeways in Houston and across the country, a fatal accident can happen in the blink of an eye, and can change lives forever. Loss of limb, brain trauma, and spinal cord damage are some of the injuries that can occur in a car crash. Another driver's negligence can result in losses that cannot be recovered, as well as years of adjustment and rehabilitation for survivors. When the unthinkable happens, a driver or other party may be found responsible for the wrongful death of a victim after an accident.
On behalf of Grimes & Fertitta, P.C. posted in Fatal Motor Vehicle Accidents on Wednesday, August 26, 2015.
While any auto accident can create serious problems, such as injuries and medical expenses, some wrecks are particularly devastating and claim lives. Tragically, these accidents continue to result in far too many deaths in Houston, and throughout Texas. To make matters worse, many of these car accidents could have been prevented and the families of those who died may experience many hardships. For example, a family whose loved one was killed in a car accident may have to endure severe emotional pain and financial challenges (funeral expenses, etc.).

At Grimes and Fertitta, we have helped many families deal with the sudden death of a loved one through a fatal traffic accident. As such, we understand how difficult it can be to come to terms with such losses. In many cases, a big part of these families' healing processes is uncovering why the accident occurred.
On behalf of Grimes & Fertitta, P.C. posted in Fatal Motor Vehicle Accidents on Wednesday, March 18, 2015.
Losing a loved one in a fatal car accident can be an incredibly traumatic experience for people of all ages. Every year, countless people across the state of Texas and the entire country are forced to confront the news that a family member has died in a preventable collision. In such cases, the process of mourning can be severely compounded by considerable financial hardships and other serious issues placed on surviving family and friends. Wrongful death claims can be filed by several different parties, and can account for a number of types of losses.
On behalf of Grimes & Fertitta, P.C. posted in Fatal Motor Vehicle Accidents on Wednesday, February 25, 2015.
When it comes to using a cell phone while driving, Texas motorists continue to do so despite the fact that the vast majority of them know better. Every year, distracted driving results in countless serious and fatal car accidents. And while the nature and severity of distracted driving collisions can be difficult enough for victims and their families to cope with, the fact that these types of accidents are largely preventable can be especially devastating. It is for that reason that the attorneys at the law offices of Grimes & Fertitta, P.C., are dedicated to helping families like yours pursue wrongful death claims against liable parties whenever necessary.
