Cruises from Velas
Velas (pop. 5400) is a portside town on São Jorge Island of the Azores in the North Atlantic Ocean. Velas is one of nine islands in the archipelago. São Jorge Island is a relatively long thin island (54 km by 6 km at its widest).
Velas on the southern coast is situated on one of the few coastal locations suitable for a town. Most of the coastline rises abruptly from the sea, with cliffs to 500 m, particularly on the north side. Much of the plateau is grazing land, and from the heights there are magnificent views of the rugged coast. The highest point is Pico de Esperança at 1053 m.

Alright 2018 is done and I'm looking forward to an awesome 2019. This year has been extremely draining and our family is ready for a lower stress year. This is a bit later than I intended, but we have had an extremely busy January.
A family friend and her 5 children, 2 of whom were best friends with two of my kids, passed away in a fire this summer. Mrs. C. has been taking 2 of our kids to counseling following this. This was such a tragic accident and has certainly taken a large toll on our family.
A friend of mine from work also died in a car accident this past summer.
Disney Trip: We went to Disney World this summer and spent around $3,500. My sister and her daughter were able to join us there, which was really special because we don't get to see them very often since they live in California.
Although the heat and the crowds were intense we still had a good time. The perfect time to visit Disney is in February. The weather is beautiful, warm but not hot, and the crowds are much lower with kids being in school. Pull your kids out for a week and take them in February rather than in the summer if it's at all feasible.
Museum of Science and Industry: For 2018 we had a membership to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago and took 5 trips total there. We got to do all of the extra stuff which without a membership is prohibitively expensive for a large family. We paid $300 for our membership and it was well worth it. We were also able to take my other set of nephews and a friend's daughter thanks to the free guest passes we received. Downtown Chicago is just shy of a 2 hour drive from where we are at so it makes for a convenient day trip.
Beach: We live about a 10 minute drive from Lake Michigan and took the kids to the beach rather frequently this summer. We also drive about 20 minutes to a small inland lake with a public access to take them swimming as well. I prefer taking the kids to the beach on cloudy weekdays, there is NO ONE there. One of the benefits of having the summer off of work, avoiding the crowds.
Gaga Ball: I built a Gaga Ball pit this spring from scrap wood I got for free off of craigslist. Using my subpar carpentry skills I was still able to create an Octagon and the Gaga Ball pit gets a ton of use from the kids, especially when we have company over. All of the kids are in Scouts and they play Gaga Ball at camp, so I decided to make one at home for the kids to use.
Our spending was through the roof this year. We spent just over $58,000 this year, which honestly isn't that bad for a family of 6. We spent $3,500 on our Disney vacation, we finished phase 1 of our oldest kids braces, and then had to put kid #2 in braces as well. Mrs. C. has also had higher health costs this year due to her Graves disease. The first half of 2019 will also have dual braces costs as kid 1 starts phase 2, which combined are approaching the monthly cost of a typical American car payment. Spending for 2019 should be closer to $50,000 total.
Income: It became apparent in mid August that we were not going to earn as much as we did in 2017. My Fall season was much lighter than expected, although an extra job at the end of the season made a big dent in getting us closer. Since I didn't have a job at the start of the Fall outage season I ended up having a 4 month vacation this year. Not bad! We ended up earning $10,000 less than we did in 2017. For 2019 our income will be more predictable. I have two refueling outages at my home plant which I can generally estimate my income on within 5% + or -.
Savings: In total we saved $23,000. This was split about evenly between retirement savings and extra on our house, with a few thousand extra going into our bank accounts to stay liquid. We saved another $7,000 through the principal portion of our mortgages for $30,000 of total true savings.
Stock Market: We added around $11,000 to our retirement accounts, but you wouldn't know by looking at them. Our additions were offset by the December stock market drop and we ended the year with only slightly more in our retirement accounts than what we started the year with, but at least we have more total shares!
Housing: Our primary mortgage is down to $56,000 and our rental house is down to $19,000. We just purchased another rental with a HELOC on our primary for $19,000. Including closing costs and rehab we are at $23,000 invested and have it rented out at $600 per month. We will be doing several more rentals in the future, concentrating on 4 bedroom houses.
Fun: For 2019 the majority of our outings will be free / low cost. We will take a few camping trips and the boys are all participating in Scouts. This spring I plan on removing our play set that is designed for 5 – 7 year olds and replacing with a large 4 place swing set that will be usable for toddlers to grown ups. Total cost should be under $200.
Income / Savings: Our income should be more stable for this year, but with our planned expenses for braces we are aiming for a 40% savings rate.
Housing: I want to buy another house in 2019 if we can find a deal in the area we want. Our next house purchase will be a conventional 30 year loan. I will continue to pay down drastically on our primary residence and plan on owing under $35,000 at the end of the year.
That's about it for our 2018, I'm looking forward to a positive 2019. How did 2018 go for you?
One Response to "Quarter 4 2018 Update"
Sorry to hear about the hardships. That's rough. An old friend of mine from grad school died back in November from cancer. He was only 38, with a wife and three kids. Life is rough sometimes.
Glad to hear that your estimated spending for 2019 will be lower. I hope that's the case with us, too. We spent far more in 2018 than in previous years. Like you, we're also planning some free/low cost trips this year, such as camping our way from Texas to Montana (and back). Should be fun.
I wish you and your family all the best this year.


Deepanjan Nag's Magnum Opus: Music sounds better in winter!
I remember how as a kid I used to be a very intent and serious listener to music. If I ever put on a cassette, the only thing I would do for as long as the music flowed was just carefully listen to it- no room for anything else.
Extraneous noise distracted and irritated me immensely and that's why I would shut the window, not wanting outside sound gaining entry. Also, the fan was switched off since it was a major source of annoyance for me. All this was okay during winter, but sweltering summers made me pay the price dearly! I would sweat; something that didn't bother me much-though it was a matter of great concern to my folks.
The other thing that bothered me was the inherent 'hissing' property of all audiocassettes. No matter how great the recording, turn up the volume and you'll surely be introduced to that supremely omnipresent hissing. I so wished we could have recordings that could completely do away with this anomaly. Dolby-B Noise Reduction was a vestigial solution to the malady. Cassettes so proudly flaunted being DBNR enabled!
CD's answers my prayers, though I had to wait for many years. The audio quality now is so much superior to what cassettes could afford. Ironically, though, I've now begun to sometimes miss all that background hissing. So when the I buy CD's that bear recordings originally made in the pre-80's era (AAD or ADD format), I do manage to catch a hint of all that hissing I've inadvertently grown fond of.
Hissing is nostalgic. Sort of brings authenticity to vintage audio.
Magnetic cassette was analog.Along with the hissing it possessed the warmth of the voice and the instruments.Unlike digital music; which has all the clarity in the world but lacks the natural feel.
We always here everything along with some background sounds.Hissing is a good thing and pops and clicks of an Electrophone are incomparable to the flat soundstage of a compact disc.
Agreed, although the 'warmth' is more of a psychological thing rather than an aural phenomenon. Still, we can't discount the beauty of analog sound, something that's fast eroding under digital reproduction.
LPs were the best. Kyon Prateek?

Clofarabine is a purine nucleoside antimetabolite marketed in the United States and Canada as Clolar. In Europe and Australia/New Zealand the product is marketed under the name Evoltra. It is FDA-approved for treating relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) in children after at least two other types of treatment have failed. Some investigations of effectiveness in cases of  acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and juvenile myelomonocytic leukaemia (JMML) have been carried out. Ongoing trials are assessing its efficacy for managing other cancers.

Approval
Clolar was Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 28 December 2004. (Under accelerated approval regulations requiring further clinical studies.)

Side effects
 Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS). Clofarabine quickly kills leukaemia cells in the blood. The body may react to this. Signs include hyperkalemia, hyperuricemia, and hyperphosphatemia.  TLS is very serious and can lead to death if it is not treated right away.
 Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS): symptoms include fast breathing, fast heartbeat, low blood pressure, and fluid in the lungs.
Bone marrow problems (suppression). Clofarabine can stop the bone marrow from making enough red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Serious side effects that can happen because of bone marrow suppression include severe infection (sepsis), bleeding, and anemia.
Effects on pregnancy and breastfeeding. Girls and women should not become pregnant or breastfeed during treatment which may harm the baby.
Dehydration and low blood pressure. Clofarabine can cause vomiting and diarrhea which may lead to low body fluid (dehydration). Signs and symptoms of dehydration include dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting spells, or decreased urination.
Other side effects. The most common side effects are stomach problems (including vomiting, diarrhea, and nausea), and effects on blood cells (including low red blood cells count, low white blood cell count, low platelet count, fever, and infection). Clofarabine can also cause tachycardia and can affect the liver and kidneys.

Contraindications

pregnancy or planned pregnancy
breast-feeding
liver problems
kidney problems

Drug interactions
nephrotoxic drugs
hepatotoxic drugs

Delivery
By intravenous infusion.
Dosage is a 2-hour infusion (52 mg/m2) every day for five days. The cycle is repeated every 2 to 6 weeks.
Regular blood tests to monitor his or her blood cells, kidney function, and liver function.

Biology

Clofarabine is a second-generation purine nucleoside analog designed to overcome biological limitations observed with ara-A and fludarabine. A 2´(S)-fluorine in clofarabine significantly increased the stability of the glycosidic bond in acidic solution and toward phosphorolytic cleavage as compared to fludarabine. A chlorine substitution at the 2-position of the adenine base avoids production of a 2-fluoroadenine analog, a precursor to the toxic 2-fluoro-adenosine-5´-triphosphate and prevents deamination of the base as compared to ara-A.

Clofarabine can be administered intravenously or given orally. Clofarabine enters cells via hENT1, hENT2, and hCNT2, where upon it is phosphorylated by deoxycytidine kinase to generate clofarabine-5´-monophosphate. The rate-limiting step in clofarabine metabolism is clofarabine-5´-diphosphosphate. Clofarabine-5´-triphosphate is the active-metabolite, and it inhibits ribonucleotide reductase, resulting in a decrease cellular dNTP concentrations, which promotes greater incorporation of clofarabine-5´-triphosphate during DNA synthesis. Embedded clofarabine-5´-monophosphate in the DNA promotes polymerase arrest at the replication fork, triggering DNA repair mechanisms that without repair lead to DNA strand breaks in vitro and cytochrome c-mediated apoptosis in vitro. Studies using cell lines have shown that clofarabine-5´-triphosphate can also be incorporated into RNA.

Mechanisms of resistance and turnover have been reported. Clofarabine-resistance arises from decreased deoxycytidine kinase activity in vitro. ABC transporter ABCG2 promotes export of clofarabine-5´-monophosphate and thus limits the cytotoxic effects of this analog in vivo. Biochemically, clofarabine-5'-triphosphate was shown to be substrate for SAMHD1, thus potentially limiting the amount of active compound in cells.

A Sneak Peek at the Progress of MLK Jr. Library's $208 Million Renovation
We're one year in to a renovation that administrators say will turn the library into one of the most functional and impressive public facilities in the District.

On April 4, staff at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library will open its doors tarps to paying visitors who want to check in on the progress of the building. It's one year into a nearly $210 million renovation that administrators say will turn it into one of the most functional and impressive public facilities in the District.
Last week, in advance of its semi-public opening, City Paper walked through the demo zone, which, in truth, looks a lot like a series of immense concrete boxes stacked on each other. (The library will, after all, occupy about 450,000 square feet of space.)
It is admittedly difficult to envision anything beyond the cavernous cement walls and plywood flooring. But somewhere around the third level of the steep and precarious metal stairs erected inside the main hall—a spot that boasts a handy view of a cross-section of the library's belly—there's a certain thrill to the emptiness.
Replacing the dimly lit and scarcely visible staircases in the library's first iteration are plans for new sets behind wide panels of glass. In addition to a ground-level café, the new library will boast a reimagined children's wing (complete with a large slide), technology and creative space (with 3-D printers), a double-height reading room, more robust temperature control to preserve special collections, an auditorium, and a roof terrace.
Standing on top of the building with a near-panoramic view of Chinatown and Penn Quarter, D.C. Public Library spokesman George Williams points to a swath of the gravel at our feet. "That," he said, "will be gone." In two years, it'll be carved out, empty space above stadium seating for the library's auditorium.
In its final form, Williams says the building will be the "crown jewel" of D.C.'s public library system.


I'm not really sure if it does anyone any "beneficials" to put up this type of message… which is basically a "sense of the personal individual Kp" type message.
I'm right now in a period of seeming "stasis", like "everything's on hold"… nothing to see here… just treading water… not really going anywhere.
This has happened before, and I've likely mentioned it before. But today, a couple "small" type incidents occurred that poked me into realizing that this current place that I'm in right now "needs" to change… at some point, at some time. I'm just not "getting" what point and what time that is. And in this case I'm primarily talking about my local "place (house) of residence". It could mean more than that, but, there it is.


Many travellers are searching for What To Do In Koh Samui In December, Traveling is full of many opportunities to go on all kinds of adventures where you can experience new people and cultures. One popular country that many people like to flock to is the Southeastern country of Thailand. While there are many spots to go to in this affordable island paradise, but the island of Koh Samui is where many people like to go to because it has so many activities and natural and manmade structures to view. You can find What To Do In Koh Samui In December travel information.
What To Do In Koh Samui In December, Koh Samui is definitely the second largest island in Thailand. They have many beaches full of coconut groves and rain forests. There are also many spots for relaxation, exciting nightlife and tourist culture, and religious architecture.
This is located on a rocky island that is incorporated in the northern end of Koh Samui. It houses a 15-meter high Buddha Statue in the modern Buddha in Mara posture with the beautiful island sky surrounding him. Before visitors can enter in the area using the statue, they must don the proper traditional clothing for the area.
While Koh Samui has several waterfalls, the Na Muang waterfalls located inland are among the most breathtaking because great for doing things like swimming, exploring, climbing, or taking a picnic. The lower first waterfall can be reached through the "staircases" created by the tree roots and rocks, as well as the base can be a large natural pool the location where the water is cool and refreshing. The next waterfall is all about around 30 minutes away and is recognized as Namtok Na Muang or "purple waterfalls" since the rocks contain shades of purple. Between the two will be the Na Muang Safari Park where you may see monkey shows and carry on elephant rides.
There is a lot of exciting activity within this popular spot. You can go swimming or simply relax on its beautiful sandy beaches flanked by clear and funky waters. Yet another thing that the area is recognized for is its cabaret shows, or even more specifically its kathoey cabaret implies that feature transgender women or effeminate males who dress and perform in classic cabaret or Thai dancing garb. The shows usually feature the dancers lip syncing to popular music and in some cases performing detailed choreography, making for the enjoyable experience that is full of glitz and glam.
These are also called "Grandfather and Grandmother Rocks." These rocks are extremely named because their natural formations look much like female and male genitalia. The website will surely give someone with a feeling of humor a giggle, and the local legend that you simply will listen to locals of how they happened may also result in an interesting trip.
It is really an aquarium where you can see many of the local wildlife from the area. A lot of the marine life is through the Gulf of Thailand like tiger sharks, manta rays, nurse sharks, various tropical fish, and others. The zoo inside features many animals like monkeys, otters and various birds, with the main attractions being the leopards and tigers taking the stage inside a live show. You may also pay a little extra to obtain your picture taken together.
For people who tire of heavily basic activities or those who just want to experience all that local fare offers can attend some classes around this popular cooking school. SITCA offers courses that are some hours long to create a multicourse meal. A few of the items covered in the class include learning about local ingredients and ways to create intricate floral designs using various carving techniques on local vegatables and fruits. Students may also get a complementary instructional DVD to enable them to practice the techniques at home or any place else.
In the interior hills in the island, you can experience these beautiful religious structures set in a luscious jungle. Originally developed by a fruit farmer named Khun Nim on his very own land, the garden features many large statues of Thai deities, animals, and humans in dynamic poses. The farmer also created a statue of himself inside a relaxed pose with a rock. Your garden can be a serene and quiet place having a waterfall and stream running from the jungle areas.

When a multicultural country like Canada faces a stark rise in hatred targeting one ethnic group, its social and ethical solidarity is put to the test. The question for Canada's Jewish establishment is, how will it respond to the shocking spike in hatred targeting the Muslim community?
On the heels of the Quebec City mosque shooting, which left six worshippers dead, and then a hate-filled protest outside of a Toronto mosque, a private member's motion to condemn Islamophobia was introduced in Parliament. Regrettably, the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA) is opposing the motion, at least in its current form.
As the motion – intended to express the will of Parliament but falling short of having any legal force – acknowledges, there are already Charter provisions for opposing racism and discrimination. And Section 319 of the Criminal Code already outlaws "communicating statements in any public place, incit[ing] hatred against any identifiable group where such incitement is likely to lead to a breach of the peace." But, sometimes, the law is not enough to signal collective revulsion.
For its part, CIJA calls M-103 "flawed." As CIJA head Shimon Koffler Fogel writes, the motion "requires us to silence legitimate concerns or suppress a public conversation about those strains of Islam that pose a real and imminent threat to Jews around the world," adding that the motion "denies space and opportunity within the Muslim community to confront those strains of Islam that do indeed exist and do indeed cause harm to the majority of Muslims who do not subscribe to an extremist ideology." For these reasons, CIJA is urging lawmakers to oppose it.
It's not the first time a private member's motion has been introduced to focus Canada's attention on a specific form of hatred. In 2015, Conservative MP James Bezan asked "all members [of Parliament] and all Canadians [to] join me in denouncing antisemitism." In 2015, Liberal MP Irwin Cotler asked the "House [to] condemn the alarming development of a new antisemitism…." And then, of course, there's the 2010 Ottawa Protocol on Combating Antisemitism, which convened parliamentary representatives from an array of countries to call out antisemitism.
Bernie Farber, former head of Canadian Jewish Congress and now head of the Toronto-based Mosaic Institute, a diversity, peace and justice organization, said he is "baffled and stunned" by CIJA's opposition to the motion.
Is the lack of explicit acknowledgment of the legitimacy of criticizing religion a problem, as CIJA is suggesting? No. Parliamentary motions have no legislative force. The existing Criminal Code – including laws governing freedom of expression – will remain unaffected. Fogel's claim that the motion will silence criticism by force of law is simply wrong. It may serve to dampen enthusiasm for the kind of hateful anti-Muslim demonstrations we saw in Toronto, but that is the point.
These times call for solidarity in the face of rising tides of antisemitism, Islamophobia and all other forms of racism. In the wake of the mosque massacre and the hateful protests on Toronto's usually peaceful streets, coupled with the shadow of U.S. President Donald Trump's xenophobic policies, the time is now for Canadians to stand together against Islamophobia. That's the word we have, that's the member's motion being proposed, and that's the wave of hatred – one prominent wave among many, sadly – that we urgently need to address.

Q: Typescript: proper constructor name when used class decorator (target to ES5+Lib.ES2015) Here is test code:

class TBaseClass {}

interface Newable<T> {
    new(...args: any[]): T;
}

function Decorate() {
    return function <T extends Newable<TBaseClass>>(constructor: T): any {
        // extend constructor
        return class extends constructor {
            protected _extraField: string = '-'
        };
    }
}

@Decorate()
class Test {}

@Decorate()
class ExtTest extends Test {}

alert(ExtTest.name) // returns "class_1", how to get "ExtTest"?

In case if code transpilied to JS(ES2015), result will be "ExtTest".
But if project targeted to ES5 with ES2015 lib, result will be "class_1".
That can be tested in playground here.
Is it normal behavior?
Any suggestions how to correctly solve that issue will be appreciated.

A: Any code that gets transpiled, minified, or otherwise modified during a build step shouldn't rely on Function.name to be anything predictable at runtime.  That, of course, includes TypeScript code.
You can try explicitly setting the name property of the class constructor if you care about it, but it's not straightforward, and in some runtime environments it might even be completely prevented.  Also, TypeScript will not let you depending on your target version of JS.
Why do you need this?  For debugging?  Is there some third-party tool that cares about the name property of the constructor?  If at all possible I'd suggest just using your own property and setting it explicitly:
@Decorate()
class Test {
  static readonly className: string = "Test"
}

@Decorate()
class ExtTest extends Test {
  static readonly className: string = "ExtTest"
}

alert(ExtTest.className) // returns "ExtTest"

Hope that helps; good luck!

"Last year, American oil production reached its highest level since 2003."
— Barack Obama on Friday, March 11th, 2011 in a press conference
Barack Obama says U.S. oil production last year was highest since 2003
By Louis Jacobson on Tuesday, March 15th, 2011 at 11:42 a.m.
In his press conference on March 11, 2011, President Barack Obama talked up U.S. oil production against a backdrop of rising prices at the pump.
"We need to continue to boost domestic production of oil and gas," he said. "Last year, American oil production reached its highest level since 2003. Let me repeat that. Our oil production reached its highest level in seven years. Oil production from federal waters in the Gulf of Mexico reached an all-time high. For the first time in more than a decade, imports accounted for less than half of what we consumed. So any notion that my administration has shut down oil production might make for a good political sound bite, but it doesn't match up with reality,"
In this item, we'll check the first piece of evidence to support his contention that his administration hasn't "shut down" oil production -- that "last year, American oil production reached its highest level since 2003."
We turned to the Energy Information Administration, the federal government's official office for energy statistics. Since Obama said "oil production," we will only look at oil removed from U.S. territory, rather than natural gas or other petroleum products.
Here are the annual totals, in barrels produced, going back to 2003:
2003: 2,073,453,000
So, 2010 is definitely the highest since 2003. But we'll note a couple of caveats.
First, production levels actually have been quite stable over the eight-year period. Comparing 2009 and 2010 statistics, petroleum production only rose about 3 percent. And the level for 2010 is only 11 percent higher than for the lowest year in that eight-year period. So the increase the president is referring to is not particularly dramatic.
The second caveat is that the Energy Information Administration projects that production totals are poised to fall from their current levels over the next two years.
Domestic crude oil production, the agency says, is projected to decline by 110,000 barrels a day in 2011 and by an additional 130,000 barrels per day in 2012. The agency makes that projection based on expected production declines in Alaska due to maturing oil fields. Production in the Gulf of Mexico is also projected to decline. Both are partially offset by projected increases in the Lower 48 states, but on balance, EIA sees the numbers falling.
So Obama is right that American oil production is at its highest level since 2003, but we're taking the statement down a notch on our rating scale because the amount is projected to fall during each of the next two years, making it somewhat problematic to use the number as evidence that domestic oil production is on a healthy trendline.

Opinion: It Was Too Soon to Lift COVID Restrictions in Iowa
Johnny Marks Published: February 9, 2021
Photo by: RoMiEg
Some were celebrating Sunday morning when many of the COVID-19 restriction in Iowa were lifted while others were disappointed. I am one who was disappointed. After a tumultuous battle with the pandemic in our state, numbers are at the lowest since October. October 6 to be exact. With each passing day, thousands more Iowans are receiving either vaccine shot one or booster shot (shot two). That's great, but does that mean it's time to stop with restrictions? I don't think so.
We um, earned national attention a number of times this summer for how poor we Iowans were managing the pandemic. There was the situation at Tyson... that was all over CNN, Fox News, all nightly news broadcasts. There was our reluctance to have a mask mandate in the first place, that got us some attention. There was no reason for us to be proud of how we'd handled the pandemic here at home. However, in November, Governor Kim Reynolds finally woke-up and told Iowans to mask up.
Now, I have zero issues with Gov. Reynolds. Strip away COVID and, it would be hard to argue against the successes the state had with her as Lieutenant Governor and then Governor (after the 2018 election). She's repped the state very well and, is our first female Governor. This isn't an anti-Republican or Democrat 'thing' it's simply a matter of opinion: I think she removed the restrictions too soon.
With the UK variant in our state now and the South African one I'm sure not far behind, why take our foot off the gas? As we have turned this great corner, why not just keep pushing until we go from 629 new cases, which we had reported today, down to maybe 6, down to a big ol' zero? We'll get there... but this feels like it was a step backwards. And with the vaccine still weeks away for many, perhaps months; would it really be such a burden to keep on trucking with the restrictions that were in place? I don't think so. But you might, and that's okay too.

Галатасарайският лицей е елитно средно общообразователно училище разположено в Истанбул, Република Турция.

История
Галатасарайското придворно училище е открито по време на царуването на султан Баязид II в 1481. През 1866 г. то е реорганизирано по модела на френската образователна система и става известен като Галатасарайски лицей. Лицеят е разположен в района Галатасарай в Галата на Истанбулския район Бейоглу, на европейския бряг на Босфора. Галатасарайския лицей е бил разделен на три секции, съответно за нисша, средна и висша класи. Училището разполагало със собствена турска баня и болница. Училищната програма съответствала на френския модел на обучение, само че вместо френски, латински и гръцки език се преподавали турски, арабски и персийски. Сред учителите имало турци и французи, а също гърци и арменци. Лицеят се грижел за осигуряване на учениците на столово хранене, униформи, тоалетни принадлежности, книги и учебни материали. След обявяването на Турската република (1923) училището получава сегашния статут на лицей. От 1968 г. тук се обучават и момичетата (те представляват около 40% от учениците). През 1992 г. е създаден с подкрепата на Франция и Галатасарайски университет, който сега формира единен академичен комплекс с лицея.

В училището са се учили известен брой българи, между които Тодор Каблешков, Стоян Михайловски, Константин Величков, Симеон Радев и др.

What Sparks a Social Movement?
Follow @RPJblog
Yes Scotland was no mere political campaign. At some point in its existence it became a movement that challenged the arrogance of the British establishment. How did our opinions become a movement, and how can we rediscover its strength?
Back in late 2011 less than 30 percent of Scots polled were in favour of Scottish independence, and further back in 1979 this sentiment was as low as 6 percent. Somewhere between these two dates something changed in the way that Scots think of their national identity and our nation's place in the community of nations. Between 2011 and the September 2014 independence referendum a national movement was catalysed that transformed Scotland and reverberated around the world. What we want to consider, out of curiosity and to discover the tools to do it again, is what it was exactly that sparked the movement that has brought Scotland to the brink of leaving the United Kingdom.
The Scotsman comes over all King Canute: wingsland.podgamer.com/?p=12093
Wings Over Scotland (@WingsScotland) November 11, 2011
On the 16 September 2014 Gordon Brown, summing up the intensely directed and negative Better Together campaign, laid full responsibility for the chaos "the real people of Scotland" found themselves in on the Scottish National Party, or "the Nationalists" as he repeatedly hissed. Sure, Alex Salmond and the SNP were instrumental in bringing the independence discussion to the fore in Scottish politics, but can we or indeed Gordon Brown give them all the credit? What became Yes Scotland was greater than the sum of all the parts of the National Party, made up of many different parties and individuals. In terms of membership the SNP did not become the largest party in Scotland until after the referendum.
Speaking of the Spanish élite, the leader of Podemos, Pablo Iglesias, said that they "do not fear any particular combination of left-wing parties or activists: they fear a mobilised people, the mass involvement of ordinary people." This was precisely the terror that ran through the British establishment in the days before the referendum, the realisation that ordinary people – not politicians or funded activists – had mobilised into a mass movement that challenged the very structures of their existence and privilege. Faced with such a reality the UK changed the rules at the eleventh hour to put another option to the two question ballot and confuse the electorate, a move without which independence may well have been won. Scotland's greatest social movement since the early fourteenth century forced London to blink first.
Where did it come from? In spite of the huge contribution of the pro-independence political parties, the SNP in particular as the largest, this was the result of a growing popular want for self-determination; a growth that is yet to stop. Separatism in Scotland is the result of hundreds of thousands of tiny, almost undetectable, and individual movements within the national collective of Scotland's cultural and political body. Single tweets, Facebook updates, column inches, and expressed opinions began to move in one direction until they reached a critical mass and the birth of a movement. At full tilt this movement was greater than any political group, and bigger even than Scotland.

BREAKING: CLOSE FRIEND Of Bill And Hillary Clinton, Huge Democrat Donor ARRESTED For Threatening To Kill President-Elect Trump At Inauguration
By Patty McMurray | Jan 19, 2017
A light has been shined on the Democrats, and has shown the world a dark side that had previously been kept behind closed doors. Thanks to citizen journalists like James O'Keefe of Project Veritas and other conservative news sites, a new and horrific plan to create chaos and or violence against Trump or his supporters is being exposed. Trump's promise to totally unwind and destroy their radical agenda has brought out the absolute worst qualities in the "party of tolerance." Now that American has seen who these people really are, the Democrats will likely never win another election…
The man arrested by Miami Beach police Tuesday for allegedly threatening President-elect Donald Trump online is a member of a prominent northeast family close to Bill and Hillary Clinton.
According to the Daily Mail, he once gave $20,000 to the Democratic National Committee.
Suspect Dominic Puopolo Jr., 51, sat near Hillary Clinton when she delivered the eulogy at the funeral of Puopolo's mother, Sonia, who died in one of the jets that flew into the World Trade Center on 9-11.
During that eulogy on Oct. 6, 2001 in Boston, the former presidential candidate referred to 'Dom Jr.'s latest computer wizardry.'
The 'wizard' is now being held in a Miami-Dade County jail after using Twitter to threaten Trump's life.
Trump is scheduled to be sworn in Friday in Washington, D.C. as Puopolo remains incarcerated on a charge of threatening to harm a public servant.
Puopolo reportedly admitted to posting a video to Twitter, saying: 'This is the 16th of January 2017, I will be at the review/ inauguration and I will kill President Trump, President elect Trump today.'
He was nabbed after leaving a Washington Avenue Subway sandwich shop about 4 p.m. Tuesday.

Puopolo, however, may not be the average Trump hater.
On various social media platforms, where he posts as JesusChrist1701, the computer consultant claims to have testified in terror cases as an expert witness in a German federal court in Hamburg from 2003 to 2008.
He also says he served in the Navy.
He once posted a photo of himself holding an image of his mother in front of a wall that sports a picture of him with Colin Powell and a famous shot of Ronald Reagan.
Puopolo has published a number of pictures of outgoing Secretary of State John Kerry, whom he calls a friend. –Daily Mail

As the cost of playing rises, the amount of playing declines (NBC News). Fundraising is a way to help students with financial barriers.
It's fairly simple: caramel apple fundraisers.
After roughly a decade at the U.S. Postal Service, Tina V. bought The Chocolate Dipper in 2006, only to experience the economic downturn a year later. People weren't spending on $4 lattes, let alone their chocolate cravings.
Chocolate and candy became luxury items.
Buying the business did not come with a recession-proof handbook. There were no instructions to deal with owning a candy store in a sinking economy.
Tina and her husband (also an owner) decided to be nimble and smart: they found a solution with caramel apple fundraising.
Not only did the apple fundraisers help other organizations - from local high school sports teams to a few non-profits - but the fundraisers also helped the Dipper transform from a candy store to a fundraising machine, dipping as many as 17,000 apples a month.
Since 2011, the process has been refined to a science: homemade made-to-order caramel for dipping (the recipe took Tina about a year to get just right), Granny Smith apples from Washington state (that are each individually inspected by the cooks at the Dipper for quality), and now a variety of flavors to enhance the caramel (our cooks are always coming up with new recipes to test).
In short, we pride ourselves in our handcrafted caramel apples.
If you're interested in booking a fundraiser, order a starter pack.

The Saudi-led coalition that the president is supporting killed hundreds more on Saturday.
Salem Abduallah Musabih, 6, lies on a bed at a malnutrition intensive care unit at a hospital in the Red Sea port city of Hodaida, Yemen, on Sept. 11. A Saudi-led coalition fighting rebels in Yemen has killed 10,000 people in the last 18 months.
WASHINGTON ― If he wanted to, President Barack Obama could end ― or at least dramatically reduce ― the ongoing slaughter of civilians in Yemen.
Using U.S. support, the Saudi-led coalition fighting Iran-backed rebels in Yemen has been responsible for the majority of the 10,000 deaths there since the conflict began 18 months ago ― and a brutal attack on Saturday that has reportedly killed hundreds. It has left more than 28 million people on the brink of famine. And it has allowed militant Islamists ― notably Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, which is focused on targeting the U.S. ― to seize more influence and room to operate than they have had in years.
In the public consciousness, this brutal conflict blurs into the other bloody wars across the Middle East, each of them marked by its own complicated mix of players, incentives and grievances that make peace unlikely.
But Yemen is different. Here, Obama could single-handedly cause a major drop in the bloodshed, experts say. He simply doesn't seem to want to do it.
Per Obama's orders, planes belonging to the Saudis and others involved in their coalition currently receive aerial refueling from American planes, a defense official confirmed to The Huffington Post this week. U.S. military personnel stationed in Saudi Arabia offer intelligence and logistical support to the coalition, but don't decide where it bombs, the official said. And the Obama administration has greenlit three new transfers of weapons ― ammunition, bombs, air-to-ground missiles and tanks ― to the kingdom to replenish stocks used in Yemen, according to arms trade expert William Hartung.
Obama could stop all of that at any time.
"There's no question that American refueling, providing tankers, greatly enables the bombing of Yemen. If the Saudis had to do it without our tankers, the level of bombing would be enormously reduced, probably by a factor of three," former Pentagon official Pierre Sprey told HuffPost.
Tanks of U.S. fuel for the coalition's jets could be moved out of the area in a handful of hours, the defense analyst estimated.
The Saudi-led coalition has bombed multiple facilities operated by the medical charity Doctors Without Borders, prompting the group to shut down some of its operations -- and leaving Yemenis with even less medical assistance.
The next step would be to pull U.S. personnel who are currently assisting the coalition. The Obama administration already reduced the number of Americans aiding the Saudi-led coalition to under five in June, the defense official said, following an attempt at a ceasefire in the spring. Though the ceasefire faced problems almost immediately and has now fully collapsed, the U.S. believes that the group of fewer than five Americans is still enough to meet the coalition's needs, the official told HuffPost.
Were the president to fully shut down that joint cell, the coalition might cause more civilian casualties in the short run, Sprey said. But its general capacity to pick out targets would be more limited and the perception of a strong U.S. hand behind the war could start to recede ― granting the U.S. more legitimacy in its calls to strike more carefully, reduce the violence and ultimately move toward peace.
The president has sold more weapons to the kingdom than any previous holder of the Oval Office. He presents this as a key part of his Middle East strategy ― a way to reassure the Saudis while he has pursued successful nuclear diplomacy with their archrival, Iran.
However, Obama's approach seems to have only enabled Saudi aggression by making the kingdom paranoid about abandonment by the U.S., encouraging it to deal with its own problems however it chooses (U.S. and international standards be damned) and providing it with the most advanced weaponry in the world.
Rights advocates say Obama or a future president should leverage the weapons deals to which the Saudis and the U.S. seem so committed.
Shocked by the reports out of Yemen, lawmakers who have a chance to approve or block Obama's arms sales to Saudi Arabia seem more willing than before to use those deals to encourage changes in Saudi behavior, according to Cole Bockenfeld, deputy director on policy at the Project on Middle East Democracy. A recent effort in the Senate to vote down a deal providing the Saudis with fresh tanks was seen as "kind of a proxy vote to show some displeasure," Bockenfeld said.
The Obama administration could also take less drastic measures like preventing the flow of spare parts for U.S.-made machinery involved in the war, like the F-15 bombers, or suspending deliveries on existing contracts that have yet to be fulfilled.
Under U.S. law, credible reports of human rights abuses by the holders of U.S. weaponry require the executive branch to suspend security assistance until it can investigate whether international law has been violated, the American Bar Association pointed out in a recent letter that encouraged lawmakers to block the tank deal.
This means Congress also bears responsibility for the killing. It could pressure the Obama administration, if it chose, to take any of these measures and demand that the executive prove that the Saudi-led coalition is following international conflict standards before any more help of any kind is offered. Parliamentarians in London and Brussels for months have been putting pressure on their governments over the help Britain and European Union member states like France have been providing to the coalition.
Opponents of such actions to wind down the war have used the same arguments for the last 18 months: A U.S. role helps prevent even greater civilian casualties; the Saudis could become even more anxious and lash out more brutally if the U.S. failed to support them in a region that they consider their backyard.
That logic has less and less appeal on Capitol Hill, Bockenfeld said.
Observers who say only the way to encourage a settlement to the conflict is to have a stake in the coalition have been proven wrong, Bockenfeld argued.
Of course, pulling the U.S. out of the war won't end it entirely.
The rebel group fighting the Saudi-backed Yemeni government has proven that it's willing to target civilians and commit major human rights violations as well, sometimes with arms provided by Saudi nemesis Iran.
That group, the Houthis, and its ally, former Yemeni president Ali Abdullah Saleh, may become emboldened if the U.S. backs away. They could launch fresh offensives against the parts of the country that the Saudi-led coalition is defending.
Meanwhile, the kingdom has shown no desire to back down or even accept greater accountability for its actions in Yemen. Asked how Saudi decision-makers would react to an Obama administration turnaround, Gulf politics expert Bilal Saab said it would be perceived as a stab in the back.
Still, ending U.S. cooperation with the Saudis' misadventure in Yemen could help on three big fronts: by reducing the scale of the violence; by reducing the risk that U.S. complicity in the killing will spur greater anti-Americanism in the region; and by moving the situation toward what Saudi expert Greg Gause of Texas A&M University has suggested ― using American "influence over Saudi Arabia to help it find an exit ramp" out of an unpopular war.
But that all depends on whether the president wants to stop the slaughter. Right now, it certainly seems like he doesn't.

In the above program, parent create a child and the child execute the ls command. But, my requirement is to save the output of ls in an array in parent. Is there any way to do this.

A: exec*() family functions replace the current process's image with new one. So you can't read it directly. You don't need a child process to read the output from an external command. You can use popen() to achieve that.
If you do have to create a child process, then you can use pipe(2) to read from the output from the child process. You can find a simple example on the linked man page.

A: To use popen() is one possibility, but if you want to go with fork()/exec*(), you would do this:
Before the fork(), create a pipe and attach it to stdout in the child
int fds[2];
pipe(fds);

After the fork, in the child process close the read fd and attach the write fd to stdout:
close(fds[0]);
dup2(fds[1], 1);
close(fds[1]);

In the parent process, close the write fd and read from the read-fd to get the output:
close(fds[1]);
read(fds[0], buf, sizeof(buf));

If you need buffering, you can call fdopen() on the read-fd in the parent process.

ANTITHROMBOTIC TREATMENTS
VOLUME-OUTCOME RELATIONSHIP FOR REVASCULARIZATION PROCEDURES The guidelines also maintain the recommendations for training in PCI, both for ACS (≥ 75 procedures per operator in centers with at least 400 PCI procedures per year and a 24-hour on-call service) and for stable CAD (≥ 75 procedures per operator in centers with at least 200 PCI procedures per year). For the first time, the guidelines recommend that PCI treatment of LMCA disease be carried out by experienced operators (IIa C), defined in the article cited by the guidelines as those who treat at least 15 patients per year. An especially notable modification has been introduced into the recommendation regarding the treatment of elective PCI patients considered complex. The guidelines maintain the requirement for PCI in these patients to be performed by experienced operators, with access to circulatory support and intensive care treatment; however, the requirement in the previous guidelines for an on-site surgical team has been eliminated.
MEDICAL THERAPY, SECONDARY PREVENTION, AND FOLLOW-UP STRATEGIES
Introduction The Drosophila Polycomb Group (PcG) proteins are required for heritable silencing of the homeotic KPT-330 and many others. PcG proteins form a number of distinct complexes. The ESC/E(Z) complex, also known as Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), methylates histone H3 on lysine 27 (H3K27) and contains the histone methyltransferase E(Z), the histone H3 binding protein ESC (Tie et al., 2007) and SU(Z)12. The PRC1 complex contains the PcG proteins PC, PH, PSC and RING, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that mono-ubiquitinates lysine 119 of histone H2A (Wang et al., 2004). Its PC subunit binds the trimethylated H3K27 (3mH3K27) sites created by E(Z). PcG complexes and their associated enzymatic activities are required continuously to maintain silencing. ESC originally appeared to be unique among PcG proteins in being required predominantly during early embryogenesis. Temperature shift experiments with a temperature-sensitive esc allele suggested that esc is required only during early embryogenesis (Struhl and Brower, 1982) and similar experiments with a heat-inducible hsp70-esc transgene also suggested that early esc expression is sufficient to promote normal development (Simon et al., 1995). This early requirement for esc is reflected in its temporal expression profile: esc mRNA is most abundant in early embryos, peaking at 8 h (Gutjahr et al., 1995, Sathe and Harte, 1995) and subsequently declines to almost undetectable levels by the end of embryogenesis. Similarly, the ESC protein is present at high levels during the first half of embryogenesis, peaking at mid-embryogenesis and declining to barely detectable levels by first instar (Simon et al., 1995). In contrast, the sole mammalian ESC ortholog, EED, appears to be expressed and required continuously (Schumacher et al., 1996). The temporal profile of esc expression suggested that ESC might be specifically required only for the establishment but not the subsequent maintenance of Polycomb silencing. E(Z), however, is required continuously throughout development (Beuchle et al., 2001), and recent biochemical studies demonstrate that ESC is required for E(Z) HMTase activity both in vitro (Czermin et al., 2002, Nekrasov et al., 2005) and in vivo, at least during embryogenesis (Ketel et al., 2005). This suggested that this essential function of ESC may be carried out by another protein after ESC levels drop. One obvious possibility was that such a protein would be similar to ESC itself. When the complete sequence of the Drosophila melanogaster genome became available, we conducted a BLASTP search using the ESC protein sequence as a query and identified a single predicted protein with a high degree of sequence similarity to ESC. This protein is encoded by the CG5202 gene, which we have renamed extra sex combs-like (escl). While this work was in progress, Wang et al. (2006) demonstrated that recombinant ESCL can substitute for ESC in reconstituted PRC2 complexes in an in vitro histone H3K27 methylation assay, indicating that their biochemical functions are similar if not identical.

Gods in My Home brings together Chinese ancestral paintings and traditional popular prints, and examines the unexplored connection between these two seemingly separate genres in the context of Chinese Lunar New Year. These images reflect a Chinese view of reverence and the belief that these portraits and prints were capable of blessing and protecting the prosperity of family lines.
Visitors are invited to explore beautiful objects including New Year prints and paintings, ancestral portraits, paper gods and ceramics, and discover the shared family values, ritual concepts, belief in visual powers and common traditions that bind them. Experience these compelling and never-before-seen images through an artistic lens in this ROM original exhibition.
The ROM is Canada's largest museum with collections that span art, culture and nature from across time and around the Globe. Among North America's most renowned museums, the ROM is home to more than 12 million objects and specimens, 40 galleries and exhibitions spaces and a range of fascinating exhibitions, lectures, tours and events.
