가회동에 위치한 가회동60갤러리에서 한국화가 정해진 작가의 '호피호사(虎皮好事)'전이 2월10일 부터 28일까지 열린다.
호피를 주제로 작업해온 그녀의 호피홀릭에 관한 작업의 변천과정을 한눈에 볼 수 있는 전시다.
를 모호하게 이종교배하여 작품으로 승화시키고 있다.
전통 채색화 방식을 고수하는 정해진 작가는 호피의 털을 비단 위에 한올 한올 세밀히 그려나가 면서, 중첩된 현대인들의 욕망의 빛과 그림자를 화려한 역설적인 언어로 나타낸다.
정해진의 호피 작품은 2011년 클리오와의 콜라보레이션에서 이효리를 주제로 그린 '클리오의 여신' 작품으로 우리들에게 많이 소개된 바 있다.
전통적으로 좋은 일에 상징적으로 사용되었던 호피 문양은 이번 '호피호사(虎皮好事)'전 에서도 매력적으로 차용되고 있다. 정해진은 호피를 통해 새해의 호사를 불러오고, 호사를 나누고자 한다.
인간과 호랑이에 관한 최초의 이야기는 단군 신화에서 찾아 볼 수 있다. 호랑이는 끝내 100일을 견디지 못하고 인간이 되지 못한다(않는다). 호랑이는 왜 호피를 벗지 못했을까? 한국 전래 동화의 한 구절이다. "떡 하나 주면 안 잡아먹지?" 이 역시 인간을 위장한 호랑이가 등장한다. 엄마인지 확인하려는 아이들이 호피 손등을 보고 호랑이의 변장을 알아차린다. 호피는 인간의 시각을 장악하는 힘이 있다. 딱 한 번의 마주침에도 호피는 강렬하다. 인간이 되지 못한 호랑이와 인간을 속이지 못한 호랑이. 그들은 호피를 입고 있었다.
<산신탱(山神幀), 송광사, 1858>에는 온화한 미소의 산신이 호랑이를 깔고 앉아있다. 부릅뜬 파란 눈과 휘감겨 올라간 꼬리가 사선으로 대칭되며 위용을 자랑한다. 호랑이의 위력 때문인지 산신은 호랑이와 함께 등장하곤 한다. 잡아먹을 지도 모른다는 위협과 동시에, 보호와 행운의 대척점에 호랑이가 포진된다. 호피를 벗고 인간이 될 수 없었던 호랑이를 위협의 타자로만 남겨두기엔 석연치 않다. 그래서 호랑이는 긍정의 부적符籍처럼 재탄생된다. 숙종시대 최고의 초상화가인 진재해(秦再奚, 1691-1769)는 <조영복 초상, 1725년경>을 그린다. 이 작품에는 호랑이가 아닌 호피가 등장한다. 관아재 조영석의 큰형인 조영복이 앉아 있는 의자에는 호피가 걸쳐있다. 호랑이의 권위와 보호의 이중성이 호피 무늬의 장식성에 걸터앉는 것이다. 이처럼 호피가 깔린 의자 배경은 조선 시대의 전신 초상화에 두루 쓰이기 시작했다. 그들은 호피를 선호하고 있었다.
김홍도는 호랑이를, 강세황은 소나무를 합작하여 그린 작품이 <송하맹호도(松下猛虎圖), 19세기, 비단에 채색>다. 당대 최고의 화가들이 모여 호랑이와 소나무를 그린 셈이다. 김홍도는 그 당시 이입된 서양화 기법의 영향으로 음영처리가 가미된 입체감 있는 호랑이를 그린다. 정밀하게 묘사된 호피의 섬세함은 가히 월등하다. 그 후 조선말기 <까치와 호랑이> 같은 민화에도 호랑이는 비슷한 구도로 등장한다. 김홍도의 세밀함은 사라졌지만, 수묵과 진채를 곁들인 작자미상의 민화 속 호랑이는 호랑이의 기복祈福적인 의미를 간직한 채 유지된다. 그런 호랑이가 현대에 다시 출현하는 것은 왜일까? 정확히 말해, 호피의 귀환 말이다. 요즈음 대세가 되는 디자인은 소위 '애니멀 스킨Animal Skin'이라 칭하는 각종 동물들의 표피 무늬다. 얼룩말, 기린, 표범, 그리고 호랑이. 호피는 애니멀 스킨의 대표성을 띤다. 호피가 넘쳐난다. 의복에서 이불, 액세서리까지 호피는 호사스럽다. 현대는 호랑이 한 마리의 호피를 분절시켜, 호피 무늬의 생산적인 이미지를 호화롭게 치장하고 있다.
호피를 그린다. 왜 그리는가? 꼼꼼히 그리는 일만큼은 명쾌한 작업이 되지만, 복합적인 설명들이 따라 붙는다. 인간의 시각을 사로잡는 강렬한 매력, 위협과 보호의 권력성, 현대적 차용의 디자인적인 재생산성, 그리고 진채에 몰두했던 작가의 시간과 세밀함. 역사 속의 호피는 서로 다른 의미들을 내재한 채, 이종들 간의 교배를 통해 호피의 지속성을 갈망한다. 생뚱맞은 완전한 단절도 아니고, 온전한 어제의 지속도 아니다. 호피는 그 옛날의 기원을 쉽게 알아볼 수 있게 만들고, 오늘날의 이종移種도 가능하게 만드는 그런 것이다. 전통적인 비단과 진채의 맛을 아는 작가와 현대적인 세련미를 즐기는 작가의 일심동체를 꿈꾸는 정해진 작가에게, 호피는 일심동체의 주제일 수 있다. 호랑이의 분절로도, 꽃으로도, 신체로도, 사과로도, 나무로도 호피는 종을 넘나드는 이식을 하면서 확장된다. 정해진 작가 나름의 호피 작업 방식이다. 어디로의 호사好事로운 호피 이종移種을 꿈꾸는가?
The first story on human and tiger is found in the Dangun legend. A tiger prayed to become human. It was asked to endure eating only garlic and staying out of the sunlight for 100 days, but it gave up and could not become a human. Why couldn't the tiger take off its skin? In a traditional fairytale, I won't eat you if you give me a piece of cake, a tiger disguised as a man appears. Children make sure their mother is not a tiger by checking the skin on the back of the hand. The tiger that could not become a human and the tiger that could not deceive humans. They wore their tiger skins.
Appearing in the Hanging Painting of a Mountain Spirit (Songgwangsa, 1858) is a mountain spirit with a gentle smile sitting on a tiger. The tiger looks stately with glaring blue eyes and a coiled-up tale in diagonal symmetry. A mountain spirit often emerges with a tiger probably because it's a metaphor for dominating power. The tiger refers to threat, protection and fortune. It is not enough to depict the tiger as threatening, and thus it is revived as a positive charm. In Portrait of Jo Yeong-bok (ca. 1725), Jin Jae-hae - a top portrait painter during the reign of King Sukjong in the Joseon Dynasty – paints a tiger skin instead of a tiger. A tiger skin is draped on the chair Jo Yeong-bok sits in. The tiger skin's ornamental quality signifies its duplicity, authority and protection. Chairs draped with a tiger skin were widely applied to Joseon's full-length portraits. Joseon painters favored the tiger skin.
Why does artist Jeong Hae-jin depict tiger skin patterns? Her work is meticulous as well as cheerful. It demands an intricate explanation. Jeong's work is characterized by a strong magnetism capturing the eye, a representation of power with dual meanings (threat and protection), design-like reproductivity through modern appropriation, the time of applying jinchae (real pigment, thick and opaque coloring), and minuteness. Her tiger skins conveying different meanings long for their continuity through crossbreeding. Her patterns are not completely breakdown, but yesterday's continuousness. This makes the originality of tiger skin recognize and is able to transform oneself into new art world.
The tiger skin may be the subject matter that becomes one in body and soul for the artist who dreams of fusing work with the flavor of silk and jinchae and work with modern refinement. The tiger skin patterns expand to not only tiger' segments, but flowers, bodies, apples, and trees, transcending species. This is Jeong' original system of art work. Where will she go to dream with her tiger skin patterns holding grand events.

The new ordering question is AWESOME. I particularly like the update that allows you to drag the answers, not just the a, b, c, etc.
How does Buzz work the partial credit on this type of question? If the answer should be a, b, c, d, e, will Buzz give a student a 4/5 for saying a, e, b, c, d since 4 of them were in the correct order? Or will it only count forward until it is incorrect and give a 1/5?
In the above example, the student only match the ordering question for 1 and 3. So, the student would get 50%.
Good to know. Thanks, Brad!
Here is what I don't like about ordering questions though.
In the example above, the student would get zero points since none of the letters are in the correct place. I would argue, though, that they only put one letter out of order. Since the ORDER is what is important, the student correctly put a, then b, then c so wouldn't they get 75%? The argument is should you grade an ordering question based on placement or order?
This isn't necessarily a Buzz issue. Most teachers would give the student 0% for this even though only one letter is out of place. For this reason, I would make ordering questions not give partial credit.
How do I set up passages for assessments and practice questions?
How do I link questions and question banks to assessments?


I learned about measurement from Katie Delahaye Paine, who is the leading expert in measuring communications strategies. Why else would everyone call her The Queen of Metrics! I was honored enough to co-author a book with Katie, "Measuring the Networked Nonprofit," a book about measuring social media and networks. So, I know first-hand how incredibly brilliant she is!
The good news is that Katie has just released a new e-book, Measurement 101 for Nonprofits that helps nonprofits measure all aspects of their work – from program outcomes to communications strategy. The book makes measure easy to understand and offers lots of tips and checklists. Here's what in it.
The book is $101, and at first glance you might think that is a lot to pay for a book. But it isn't. The book includes access to Katie's research papers, vendor selection charts, and much more. You also get access to Katie's monthly Measurement Hours where you can ask Katie questions. Katie's e-books also come with a "Lifetime Content Warranty." That means as new tools and techniques become available, she updates the material and you get revised content at no charge.
Purchase your copy right now! And, you will be on your way to measuring results and improving them!
Excellent book indeed for a non-profit who is still figuring steps for measurement 101. If you are a high impact non-profit or non-profit who have already identified reliable metrics already, it may be time to leverage structured platform. Fortunately, an innovative product now available. You may want to review SoPact (http://sopact.com), a cloud platform designed to aggregate portfolio's projects, grantees and investees impact within a short time. It provides comprehensive social impact accounting approach allows a flexible metrics set up from built-in standards like IRIS (and 15+ partners), public catalogs and custom metrics. Our tools such as step by step metrics data collection, powerful and dynamic analytics, impact story builder, scorecard, and SROI calculator can be customizable to any portfolio needs.
The exceptional user experience that integrates frameworks, standards and tools such as Theory Of Change, SROI, and Standard based reporting IRIS.

Is your software discussed in the book?
I would not hesitate to buy this if there was an audiobook available. Any plans for such?

Iván Helguera Bujía, född 28 mars 1975 i Santander, Kantabrien, är en professionell fotbollsspelare som senast spelade för den spanska klubben Valencia CF.

Han har mest spelat som mittback men tidigare även som defensiv mittfältare.

Helguera spelade mellan 1999 och 2007 i Real Madrid och gjorde då 229 framträdanden i ligan. Sista året förlorade han sitt tröjnummer 6 och spelade ett tag i Real Madrids C-lag innan managern Fabio Capello åter tog ut honom i A-truppen igen, där han avslutade karriären med ligaguld och mycket speltid med Cannavaro som mittbackskollega.

Sommaren 2007 släppte Real Madrid honom till Valencia CF utan krav på utköpsklausul, trots att han hade två år kvar på kontraktet.

Mellan 1998 och 2004 spelade Helguera 51 landskamper och gjorde 3 mål för det spanska landslaget.

Dear all, I am in the process of designing a work allocation sheet for the daily work involved in a QUALITY control lab of a pharma unit.
Requesting for help, if any one has worked on this kindly share the formats with me.
If work allocation to each individual or a small team is likely to continue for a reasonable period say one to three months then the sheet must first have Job description followed by sequence of actions required until that task is finished. Even it has to be changed daily the format (blank) with date written can be given to the individual or team. The concerned must tick mark activity completed and sign at the end of the format.
The format has to be designed and finally approved by your quality manager.

In my review of Rise of the Planet of The Apes on Examiner.com I state that the film is "a prequel to the original Planet of the Apes (1968) and tells the story of how the apes became intelligent." In other words, it is not a remake. Instead, Rise of the Planet of the Apes is a coming of age story for Caesar. Before I get ahead of myself, allow me to explain my statement with a bit of film history. Be forewarned, there are spoilers ahead for readers who have not seen the original five films.
The original Planet of the Apes (1968) that starred Charlton Heston only mentions Caesar as being an ancient leader of the apes who lead them to enlightenment. Little is said about how that happens. We don't see anything of Caesar until Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971) where Cornelius and Zira end up on twentieth century Earth after escaping the destruction of the planet at the end of Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970). Trapped in a time when humans are still the dominant species, Cornelius and Zira attempt to integrate and Zira gives birth to a male chimpanzee who they name Caesar. Sadly, their son is orphaned after the parents are killed.
Caesar's story is told in Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (1972) and Battle for the Planet of the Apes (1973). Conquest depicts Earth twenty years after Escape from the Planet of the Apes; taking place in 1991. In this alternate time line, Apes are kept as either pets or slaves. This troubles Caesar, because he believes their intelligence makes them equal to humans. He eventually leads the apes in a revolt. The ape revolution leads to a war between those who believe apes should be free, and those that believe—like Caesar—that humans and apes can coexist. The story of that war is told in Battle for the Planet of the Apes.
While some might say that Rise of the Planet of the Apes is a remake of Conquest of the Planet of the Apes. It is a fallacy to think so. The Caesar in Conquest is the son of Cornelius and Zira, who are intelligent apes descended from the original Caesar mentioned in Planet of the Apes. In Rise, Caesar inherits his intelligence from a drug developed by Dr. Rodman meant to be a cure for Alzheimer's allowing the brain to repair itself. The drug had been given to Caesar's mother whose intelligence increased due to the drug and passed the drug through her DNA to Caesar who surpasses his mother in heightened intelligence. Thus, the difference in origin is what sets the two Caesars apart. Therefore, the Caesar in Rise could only be the original Caesar mentioned in Planet of the Apes.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes is an incredible movie both visually and in scope. The premise alludes to the idea that the oppressed will always rise against the oppressors. The cast is superb and Andy Serkis gives the performance of his life as Caesar. James Franco stars as Dr. Will Rodman and John Lithgow stars as Rodman's father Charles. Also check out the original five movies which are available on DVD and Blu Ray.
Rise of the planet of the apes is NOT a prequel. People are just saying it is because they like the original to much. They need to accept the truth.

Die Großsteingräber bei Rothemühl waren vermutlich zwei megalithische Grabanlagen der jungsteinzeitlichen Trichterbecherkultur bei Rothemühl im Landkreis Vorpommern-Greifswald (Mecklenburg-Vorpommern). Sie wurden im 19. Jahrhundert zur Gewinnung von Baumaterial zerstört.

Lage
Beide Gräber befanden sich in einem ausgedehnten Waldgebiet, das Rothemühl auf drei Seiten umgibt. Grab 1 lag südlich des Orts und nördlich der Försterei Nettelgrund auf einem kleinen Bergrücken. Grab 2 befand sich östlich von Rothemühl und etwa 2 km nordöstlich von Grab 1. Es lag auf dem Taubenberg, der höchsten Erhebung des Waldes, südlich des höchsten Punktes auf einer Terrasse. In dem Waldgebiet liegen außerdem mehrere erhaltene Grabhügel. Weiterhin wurden hier zahlreiche Fels- und Feuerstein-Geräte gefunden.

Beschreibung

Grab 1
Nach einem Bericht von 1832 war das Grab zu dieser Zeit bereits stark beschädigt. Es war von Norden nach Osten(?) orientiert. Die Steine waren zum größten Teil bereits entfernt oder verschoben worden, so dass sich das ursprüngliche Aussehen der Anlage nicht mehr rekonstruieren ließ. Über Bestattungsreste ist nichts bekannt. An Grabbeigaben wurde ein Keramikgefäß ("Urne") gefunden, sein Verbleib ist unbekannt.

Grab 2
Von Grab 2 waren 1832 nur noch zwei aufgerichtete und parallel zueinander stehende Wandsteine erhalten. Sie waren ost-westlich orientiert, etwa 4 Fuß (ca. 1,15 m) lang und ragten etwa 3,5 Fuß (ca. 1 m) aus der Erde. Über Funde von Bestattungsresten oder Beigaben ist nichts bekannt.

Q: RegEx - Match optional groups I know RegEx is not the best way to scrape HTMLs, but this is it...
I have some something like:
 Writing: Carlo Chendi  Art: Luciano Bottaro

And I need to match the Writing and Art parts. But it is not said they're there, and there could be other parts like Ink and Pencils...
How do I do this? I need to use pure RegEx, no additional Python libs.

A: Maybe there are two patterns to recognise.

*

*your keywords exist within a ...

*your keywords are followed by a ... section

So.. first extract everything within s... (psuedo code)
while ( match( "]*>(.*?)]*>" ) ) {
    inner = match[1];
    ...
}

The (.*?) means match non-greedily, i.e. match the minimum possible. Otherwise you would match everything from the first  to the last 	 (instead of the next 	).
Then you can move on to processing the inner portion!

A: regex = re.compile("(\w+):")
regex.findall(yourString); // returns an array of matching elements

You can test it here
PS: I highly recommend you to go through this

A: I created this eventually:
(Art:|Pencils:|Ink:|Writing:){0,4}.]*?\"\>(?P<Name>.*?)\

that looks like it is working... maybe it can be polished a bit. I'm a starter you know.

A: You can match optional things in regexs using a ? after the optional part.  ? will match either 0 or 1 occurrences of a sub-expression.

A: Despite my previous answer, I changed my mind and would like NOT to have options/alternate, but get them all. So, this means that whatever is inside the TD tags have to be captured and properly classified.
I need to create a capture group optional, so that whatever is the layout, I can still retrieve the content.
It should work with this, i.e.:
   Art: Giuseppe Perego
 Writing: Carlo Chendi  Art: Luciano Bottaro
  Pencils: Jack Bradbury Ink: Steve Steere
  Pencils: Jack Bradbury Ink: Steve Steere
 Writing: Dick Kinney Pencils: Tony Strobl Ink: Steve Steere
  Pencils: Jack Bradbury Ink: Steve Steere
 Writing: Bob Karp Pencils: Al Taliaferro Ink: Al Hubbard
 Writing: Dick Kinney Pencils: Tony Strobl Ink: Steve Steere
 Writing: Vic Lockman  Art: Kay Wright
 Writing: Michele Gazzarri  Art: Giuseppe Perego

I created:
\ {1,3}(?:(?:Writing: "]*?">(.*?)?).*?)?(?:(?:Pencils: "]*?">(.*?)?\ ))?(?:(?:Ink: "]*?">(.*?)?))?(?:(?:Art: "]*?">(.*?)?))?\ {1,3}

And it looks like it is working!
I'd really appreciate someone to check and validate my effort.

Michele Casanova studied Mechanical Engineering at the ETH Zurich under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Peter Bösiger and graduated in 2011. During his studies he had the opportunity to be involved in 2 exchange programs. Firstly, he conducted his semester work and bachelor thesis under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Anthony Bull at Imperial College London (IDEA League program), where he researchedglenohumeral displacement with MRI images. Subsequently, during his master, his compulsory internship and semester work took place at Harvard Medical School under the supervision of Dr. Reza Nezafat. At Harvard he was dedicated to magnetic resonance imaging. His master thesis was focused on trauma-biomechanics under the supervision of Dr. Kai-Uwe Schmitt. His doctoral research focuses on the biomechanics and bioimaging of fracture healing. His PhD will be conducted at both the ETH Zurich and the University of Sydney.
Michele will be working for five months at the Orthopedic & Biotechnology Research Unit at the Children Hospital at Wesmead (ORB), Australia. He will deliver a murine model for fracture healing encompassing three different treatments. He will then explore the bone callus in the different treatment groups for assessing the effect of a combined therapy with parathyroid hormone and zoledronic acid. The collaboration between ETHZurich and ORB will allow a holistic approach, where the most traditional measurements (CLSM and IHC) will be done at ORB and the emerging techniques for bone callus characterization (high-resolution MicroCT andRaman spectroscopy) will be applied at the Institute for Biomechanics of ETH Zurich.
I hold a 5 years degree (MEng) in Mechanical Engineering from University of Castilla La Mancha, Spain. I am currently a second year PhD student under the supervision of Professor Damien Lacroix at Insigneo (Institute for in silico Medicine) within the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Sheffield, UK. My project aims to develop a computational model able to predict and optimise in vitro cell seeding efficiency under perfusion fluid flow conditions in order to achieve homogeneous density and spatial distribution of cells in 3D scaffolds. As a first step of my PhD, I have studied the effect of the local geometry of rapid prototyping scaffolds on the fluid flow conditions in dynamic cell seeding. The results were presented as an oral presentation at the last ESB congress in Patras (August, 2013). It was shown that the lack of quality and reproducibility of rapid prototyping scaffolds can affect local fluid velocity and therefore the final properties of the regenerated tissue.
To further explore cell seeding by perfusion in 3D scaffolds it is also necessary to understand the effect of the scaffold substrate on cell attachment. The Mobility Award for Young Researchers given by the ESB will allow me to better understand this phenomena working closely with worldwide microfluidics experts in LABS (Laboratory of Biological Structure Mechanics) in Politecnico di Milano (Italy) under the supervision of Professor Grabriele Dubini. This international collaboration will help me to gain experimental skills using cutting edge micro-particle image velocimetry technology and complement my PhD thesis by acquiring a deep understanding of cell- scaffold surface interactions. In addition, this collaboration will give the opportunity to share expertise between Insigneo and LABS enhancing the research outcomes of both groups.

Triangle Section Pottery Tour
trianglembca April 19, 2018
Friday, May 5, 2017 – 9:00am to 2:00pm, Seagrove, North Carolina
Several MBCA events were arranged around the May 6, 2017 Pinehurst Concours d'Elegance. One of them was a tour was organized by Tom Reedy of the Triangle Section to drive from Pinehurst to Seagrove, NC to visit a few of the many pottery makes in the area. It was about a 45 minute drive for 15 cars and about 25 participants. The first stop was the North Carolina Pottery Center. A curator gave us a talk on the 200 year history of Seagrove as a center for the manufacture of both utilitarian and decorative pottery. This area became a center for pottery manufacture because of accessible deposits of several types of clay. The Pottery Center has a collection of the many different ware designs that have been produced over time.
The next stop was at the Frank Neef Gallery. It has been in the area for about 20 years. His specialties are both crystal glazes and cutting elaborate patterns in the clay bodies before firing. The latter requires particular skill in both cutting the wet clay and making patters that will not change as the object is fired.
The third stop was at the Johnston and Gentithes Pottery and Sculpture gallery. Fred Johnston does work with clay that starts on a wheel and has decorations that often reflect southwest Indian traditions. His wife makes elaborate clay sculptures, many of which are quite whimsical.
The final stop was at the Ben Owen Galley. The Owen family has an extensive history of pottery making going back to at least 1830. The Ben Owen Gallery is in its third generation of operation. Asian ceramics were a strong influence on Ben Owen, Sr. as he worked at the Jugtown Pottery in Seagrove from 1923 to 1959. He established his own pottery in 1972 and developed both glazes and shapes based on his extensive travels. Ben Owen III started working in the pottery when he was 9 years old in 1977 and continues to this day. His work is in numerous collections and museums around the world but he still produces several thousand pieces every year as well as teaching and demonstrating technique visitors to the pottery.

Q: In bash, why not remove line breaks using echo? After reading this SO post, which suggests removing "line breaks" (understood as \n not \r\n) in bash using "c-style strings" (e.g., ${COMMAND//[$'\t\r\n']}), why not use echo instead? In other words:
foo=$'Apple\nBanana\nCherry\n'
echo $foo
Apple Banana Cherry

OR
foo=$(ls -1)
echo $foo
Jenkinsfile README.md exclude_contents install_kit.sh packaging

Does this cause unintentional side-effects or other problems? If the requirement is to remove line breaks, it seems simpler than ${foo//[$'\n']}
Note: I'm aware that echo "$foo" retains the line breaks and that if foo contains \r\n then echo "$foo" won't display everything on a single line.

A: Yes, echo $foo will cause unexpected side-effects.
Issues with pathname expansion
Consider a directory with these four files:
$ ls
f*  factor  fo?  foo

Now, observe that echo $foo produces a list of eight file names:
$ foo=$(ls -1)
$ echo $foo
f* factor fo? foo factor fo? foo foo

This is because the unquoted $foo in echo $foo is subjected not just to word splitting (which is what eliminates the newlines) but also to pathname expansion.
If we use pattern substitution inside double quotes, however, we get the correct file list:
$ echo "${foo//$'\n'/ }"
f* factor fo? foo

Issues with bash's echo
As @lurker pointed out, echo can act in surprising ways.
Consider a directory with three files:
$ ls
-e  \none  \text

Now, try:
$ foo=$(ls -1)
$ echo $foo

one     ext

As you can see, the file names were mangled.  This is because echo interpreted the file name -e not as a file name but as an option, the one that turns on interpretation of escape sequences.  Thus, the file name whose characters are backslash-n-o-n-e becomes newline-one. and the file name whose characters are backslash-t-e-x-t becomes tab-ext.
Bash's echo command is not compatible with POSIX's echo for which -e is treated as text to be printed.  Thus code relying on echo is not portable.  For this reason, among others, it is often recommended that new code use printf rather than echo.

Q: Preventing hover queue buildup I am currently trying to create some sort of label that when you hover over will expand to show the user more information. The problem I'm having though is that when a user quickly hovers over the item multiple times, the event queue builds up and so the animation occurs multiple times.
I would like it that when the user hovers over the label, the hover event will be somehow disabled until the label info has been hidden again. I've tried using .stop() and event.stopPropagation() but neither of these had the desired effect. Does anyone have any other ideas?
My code can be seen below:
$('.label').mouseenter(function(){
    $('.label-info').slideDown('slow');
});

$('.label').mouseleave(function(){
    $('.label-info').slideUp('slow');
})

A: Use .stop():
http://api.jquery.com/stop/

Description: Stop the currently-running animation on the matched elements.

So your code should look like this:
$('.label')
.mouseenter(function(){
    $('.label-info').stop(1,1).slideDown('slow');
})
.mouseleave(function(){
    $('.label-info').stop(1,1).slideUp('slow');
})

Note that it is unwise to use only a class selector if you are targeting IE 7 and below.

A: I've encountered this problem a few times, and have come up with various ways to get around it. Here are just 2 approaches you could take to help rid this problem.
Option 1 : Filtering animated elements
Using a combination of :animated and .filter we can prevent the animation from taking place if it is already mid-animation. This will mean it will slide all the way up, before sliding down.
$('.label').mouseenter(function()
{
    $('.label-info').filter(':animated').slideDown('slow');
}).mouseleave(function()
{
    $('.label-info').filter(':animated').slideUp('slow');
})

Option 2 - hoverIntent plugin
hoverIntent is a nice little jQuery plugin that helps prevent accidental mousing over-out of elements by adding a short delay before triggering the hover event. It's a really useful plugin, not only for helping to resolve this problem, but also if you've got highly interactive DOM elements.

23 Extraordinary Photos of Circus Performers in Strabane, 1910-11
Duffy's Circus, the Wilson and Duffy combined circus. Picture of all the members Creator: H.F. Cooper Strabane c.1911
The three main circus shows photographed by Herbert Cooper were Duffy's Circus, Buff Bill's American Circus and Hanneford's Canadian Circus. A few circuses toured Ireland in the years before 1914 and it was the heyday for these travelling shows. Big Tops were then lit by flares and it wasn't until well into the 1920s that electric lighting became common, so most of the pictures were taken outdoors and during the daylight hours.The photographs of Duffy's Circus were, almost certainly, all taken during the visit to Strabane, County Tyrone in 1911. Duffy's Circus was begun in the 1890s by John Duffy who died in 1909. When Duffy's Circus came to Strabane in 1911, it was already being run by John's widow, Annie. One of John Duffy's sons, James, married Lena Kayes, daughter of William Kayes who ran the famous Buff Bill's American Circus in Ireland before and after the First World War, Kayes himself being 'Buff Bill'. Ned Hanneford's Canadian Circus toured Ireland up to 1916. It was renowned for its menagerie, including lions and 'bears that talk'. It also featured a splendid street parade headed by an ornate, gilded bandwagon drawn by 8 sleek horses. Cooper's photos of Hanneford's Circus must have been taken before 1914, a period which seems to have been the heyday of circus visits to Strabane.
Herbert Cooper was born in Hammersmith, London, in 1874 and arrived in Strabane, County Tyrone in Ireland just before the outbreak of the First World War. He took over the photographic studio in Railway Street which had been run by J. Burroughs from about 1901 until 1913.

The Marbles were removed from Greece 200 years ago by Thomas Bruce, seventh Earl of Elgin and transported to Great Britain. The Marbles were part of a frieze that wrapped around the Temple of Athena. In 1816, the British Parliament voted to purchase the Marbles and they now reside in the British Museum. Despite years of efforts by the Greek Government to retain the Marbles, it has been unable to negotiate an agreement with its British counterparts to return the Marbles to Greece.

Q: Get start/end time of sql query I'm parsing an CSV to a MySQL table using PHP.

*

*I have timestamp columns in my table "File" called "StartTime" (start of the parsing of the file), "EndTime"(end of parsing of the file) and "CreationDate"(the time the row was created). What ways are there to get these times? Is NOW() a good solution?

*I also have a column called "Rows with errors" which is the number of rows that has errors in them and thus won't parse. How can I retrieve the number of rows with errors in the CSV file?  (A row with an error would be a row where the types are wrong, for example it should be: [varchar, int, timestamp, timestamp, timestamp]]
Here's my code:
function parse($file) {

$file_handle = fopen($file, "r"); //opens CSV
while (($row = fgetcsv($file_handle, 1000, ",")) !== false){

$file_name = basename($file);
$Rows_with_errors = ?;
$StartDate= date("Y-m-d H:i:s", time() ); //?
$EndDate=?;
$CreationDate=?;

$sql = "INSERT INTO file (Filename, TotalNumberOfRows, RowsWithErrors, StartDate, EndDate, CreationDate)
VALUES('$file_name','$Total_nr_of_Rows', '$Rows_with_errors', '$StartDate', '$EndDate', '$CreationDate')";

global $conn;
$conn->query($sql); //executes the query
}

if ($sql)
    {
        echo 'Data uploaded to database!';
    }
else {
        echo "Error: " . $sql . "
" . $conn->error;
}
}

A: I never run this, hope this works. Explanation is within the code.
<?php

function parse($file) {

    //Initialize some variables here. Probably in some constants etc.
    $dateRegex = '|^\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2} \d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}$|'; //Just a rough check. I purposely skip the case of like 9999-99-99 99:99:99. Up to you to refine this.
    $dateFormat = 'Y-m-d H:i:s';

    //In fact checking the file exist or not is probably useful too:
    //if (is_file($file)) ...

    //Opens CSV in read mode
    $file_handle = fopen($file, "r");

    //We don't need to put this in the loop since it's a one time job
    $file_name = basename($file);

    //We also initialize the variable outside the while loop so that we can increment it
    $Rows_with_errors = 0;
    $Total_nr_of_Rows = 0;

    //StartDate of the parsing, shouldn't it be outside of the while loop too?
    //Also, using "date" will gives you the time in the timezone that you set in your php.ini's date.timezone property.
    //Using "gmdate" will gives you the time in GMT time.
    $StartDate = date($dateFormat, time());

    while (($row = fgetcsv($file_handle, 1000, ",")) !== false) {

        ++$Total_nr_of_Rows;

        //So here, we are looping row by row. Do your checking here:
        if (!(is_string($row[0]) &&
            is_numeric($row[1]) &&
            preg_match($dateRegex, $row[2]) &&
            preg_match($dateRegex, $row[3]) &&
            preg_match($dateRegex, $row[4]))) {

                //Increment the error
                ++$Rows_with_errors;
        }
    }

    //That's it. We insert it now
    //Creation date & end date, probably the same, no? we initialize here:
    $CreationDate = $EndDate = date($dateFormat, time());

    //This is bad. There is no escaping, and YOU ARE RISK OF QUERY INJECTION FROM THE $file_name VARIABLE.
    //I won't discuss it here since this is not the scope of the question.
    $sql = "INSERT INTO file (Filename, TotalNumberOfRows, RowsWithErrors, StartDate, EndDate, CreationDate)
VALUES('$file_name','$Total_nr_of_Rows', '$Rows_with_errors', '$StartDate', '$EndDate', '$CreationDate')";

    global $conn;
    $conn->query($sql); //executes the query

    if ($sql){

Robin Eckermann will speak on "The SMART GRID - The looming energy revolution" in Canberra, 4:30pm for 5:00pm, 1 March 2011 (Registration Required).
The electricity grid hasn't changed a lot since Edisson invented the lightbulb - but there are lots of new challenges on the horizon. Our appetite for energy is seemingly insatiable - and our modern lifestyle as well as economic prosperity depend heavily on access to energy. However, with electricity consumption being the single largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, we cannot afford to meet rising demand by simply burning more fossil fuels as we have done in the past. Adding to the challenge, technology is advancing on many fronts and the grid is getting left behind: More energy is being generated from renewable sources - many of them intermittent - and the the pattern of electricity flows is starting to evolve from a purely radial architecture to more of a mesh. Its a bit like the transition we've seen in the ICT industry - from mainframes and dumb terminals to an Internet where resources come and go and information flows in every direction.
Electric vehicles are becoming more popular. Unless well managed, they could contribute to massive new spikes in demand - spikes that the grid is not engineered to cope with. Appliances are getting smarter, and will increasingly incorporate energy management features.
In summary, a storm of change is brewing on the horizon, and its time for a revolution in the electricity industry. This talk will look at the challenges and the opportunities as the grid enters an era of transformation that is perhaps best paralleled by what broadband did for the telecommunications industry.
Robin is widely acknowledged as a pioneer in the Australian broadband industry, having led the establishment of TransACT's $250m fibre-to-the-kerb network in Canberra a decade before the idea of a National Broadband Network came onto the radar. Since retiring as TransACT's Chief Architect in 2003, Robin has been working around Australia on fibre-to-the-home projects around Australia, and it is his interest in communications as a vital foundation for the next generation of electricity network that has driven his involvement with Smart Grids in Australia.
A Google search on a target such as "+eckermann +broadband" will give an indication of his more recent professional activities.

New York's Socialist Politicians 2: Tom Duane
May 7, 2013, 10:11 am by Trevor Loudon 1 Comment
New York State is awash with socialist and Marxist politicians. The New York legislature and the NYC City Council is full of pro-communist and socialist elected officials, mostly Democrats, who do their level best to keep the state deep blue and retard social and economic progress at every opportunity.
Tom Duane, with comrades
One of the worst offenders is Tom Duane from New York's 29th State Senatorial District, representing the Upper West Side, Chelsea, Hell's Kitchen, Greenwich Village and parts of the East Side, including the East Village, Stuyvesant Town and Peter Cooper Village and Waterside Plaza.
Duane was first elected to the State Senate in 1998, he became the Senate's first openly-gay and first openly HIV-positive member. Prior to his election to the State Senate, Duane served for seven years in the New York City Council. He is the Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Health and is also a member of the Senate Codes; Children and Families, Cultural Affairs, Tourism, Parks & Recreation; Finance; Mental Health and Rules Committees.
Duane is a member of the Communist Party USA infiltrated Chelsea Reform Democratic Club and has worked closely with the Communists his entire political career.
On May 7, 1994, the New York State Communist Party held a fundraising banquet to honor three Party activists Ted Bassett, Rose Kryzak and Mary Gale. Almost $3,000 was contributed in honor of the three.
New York District Chair John Bachtell MCd the event. Communist Party leader Gus Hall was Keynote speaker while comrade Maria Ramos introduced the honorees. Dorothy Burnham reminisced about her work with Bassett. Etta Glaser spoke of helping to organize the 1963 March on Washington with Ted Bassett.
New York City Councilman Tom Duane was there. He told the People's Weekly World – "I came to honor Mary Gale, to honor her activity in support of progressive causes. She's one of my role models. I'm proud to have earned her vote."
On May 31, 1998, the People's Weekly World held a Paul Robeson birth centennial celebration in New York at the Henry Winston Auditorium to celebrate the life of one of the Communist Party's most influential members.
Tom Duane authored a City Council proclamation praising Robeson's lifelong fight for a "world at peace, free of racism, inequality and for unity… and his fight against the erosion of domestic freedom of expression and fanatical anti-communism… Paul Robeson has become a model and an inspiration to all of us…"
Duane also personally sponsored the event.
On November 4, 1999, New York State Assemblyman and long-time Communist Party supporter Richard Gottfried presented State Assembly citations to honorees, including Communist Party members Elizabeth Hall and Bobbie Rabinowitz.
Bobbie Rabinowitz
State Senator Tom Duane sent greetings to the event.
2000 PWW Award Luncheon
On October 22, 2000, the People's Weekly World held its 4th annual celebration luncheon in New York at the Communist Party's Henry Winston Auditorium.
Speakers included City Council member Bill Perkins, Assembly member Richard Gottfried, State Senator Tom Duane, Larry Moskowitz of the Communist Party and Working Families Party and Elena Mora for the Communist Party.
Communist Party members Elena Mora and Gabe Falsetta wrote a report for the People's World of November 19, 2004, "Many positives in N.Y. elections," commenting on the gains made by "progressive" candidates:
The big gains were at the state level. State Senate seats were won by some progressive Democrats:
Tom Duane, David Paterson, Eric Schneiderman, and Liz Kreuger, all of Manhattan, all retained their Senate seats.
When Estelle Katz, a member of both the Communist Party USA and the Chelsea Reform Democratic Club, died in November 2012, fellow club member Tom Duane said this of her:
Estelle was inspiration to me,… "She woke up every day believing the world could be a better place for everyone. I will miss her — and her determination, empathy and great sense of humor — tremendously.
Is Tom Duane a Communist pretending to be a Democrat or a Democrat who would rather be a Communist?
If he could get elected as an open Communist, would Duane continue his current charade?
Maybe someone should ask him.

Cell encapsulation is a widely used technique in the field of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (TERM). However, for the particular case of liquefied compartmentalised systems, only a limited number of studies have been reported in the literature. We have been exploring a unique cell encapsulation system composed by liquefied and multilayered capsules. This system transfigured the concept of 3D scaffolds for TERM, and was already successfully applied for bone and cartilage regeneration. Due to a number of appealing features, we envisage that it can be applied in many other fields, including in advanced therapies or as disease models for drug discovery. In this review, we intend to highlight the advantages of this new system, while discussing the methodology, and sharing the protocol optimization and results. The different liquefied systems for cell encapsulation reported in the literature will be also discussed, considering the different encapsulation matrixes as core templates, the types of membranes, and the core liquefaction treatments.
Partial Text
Cell encapsulation is a very promising method for the treatment of different endocrine diseases, including diabetes, liver and kidney failure. There are also advantages in using this methodology in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (TERM), including mediation of undesired acute immune responses, while offering a three-dimensional (3D) environment essential for anchorage dependent cells [1]. In the particular case of liquefied cell encapsulation systems, a possible strategy to build the encapsulation membrane is through the Layer-by-Layer (LbL) technique, which has been proposed to process materials for a variety of biomedical applications [2]. It is a simple, low cost, and cell-friendly method which can be performed under mild conditions using different pairs-interactions [3]. Moreover, LbL is a very versatile technique which allows us to produce membranes with desired permeability according to the number and composition of the layers deposited[4], while allowing to increase the applicability of the system by endowing nanoparticles [5] or lipids and viruses [6] into the multilayers.
We tested the influence of different EHDA parameters on the diameter of the alginate microgels, which serve as templates for the production of the liquefied capsules discussed above. We varied the applied voltage (5, 7, and 10 kV), the flow rate (30, 40, and 50 mL.h-1), the needle diameter (18, 22, and 26 G), the distance between the needle and the collector (6, 8, and 10 cm), the presence/absence of microparticles, and the alginate concentration (1.5, 2, and 2.5% w/v). The parameters 7 kV, 50 mL.h-1, 22 G, 8 cm, presence of microparticles, and 2.5% w/v of alginate were kept constant for each parameter evaluation. Of note, the different parameters were all tested in the presence of a stable Tailor cone-jet mode. Results are summarized in Figs 2 and 3, and discussed individually in the following subsections.
EHDA is a very versatile technology with many advantages for cell encapsulation, particularly in terms of the reproducibility of the processed microsize hydrogels. Given its simplicity and high yield when compared to other techniques, such as microfluidics, this method has shown to be a reliable technique to produce hydrogels in different size ranges and with controlled morphology and homogeneity. Therefore, we envision that its promising and increasing prominence in the TERM field will continue to flourish.

Every Scholar, Every Moment, Every Day: Attend, Believe, Achieve!
All A-"Board" for Chess at Artemus Ward.
At the beginning of October, we implemented a new initiative to enrich our lunch and recess options for students. We invested in 12 new chess sets and procured enough tables to line the back of our stage with ten boards. Two more boards sit on a smaller table at the front where Mr. Myslenski has been able to coach new players in the fundamentals.
For students dealing with social isolation, eating lunch alone can be one of the hardest parts of the day. That's why seventh- and eighth-graders at Artemus Ward School have pledged to become more inclusive and look out for their classmates.
Artemus Ward School envisions a place where all students strive for excellence academically, socially, and emotionally in a safe and supportive community.
Artemus Ward provides all students with a safe and nurturing environment to support the development of academic excellence and the creation of civic-minded members of society who make ethical decisions. This is accomplished through the use of a core curriculum that respects the individuality of each student and encourages them to maintain the highest expectations for themselves as they aspire to become productive and contributing members of society.

HH-52 (Sikorsky S-62) Seaguard Helicopter
"SHELLY AND THE HH-52" WRITTEN BY JOHN "BEAR" MOSELEY, COAST GUARD AVAITION ASSOCIATION HISTORIAN FOR THE 75TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE HELICOPTER
The Sikorsky HH-52 Seaguard (company designation S-62) was a single turbine engine, three-blade rotor amphibious helicopter. Originally developed as a commercial venture by the Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation of Stratford, Connecticut, it was used by the United States Coast Guard primarily for air-sea rescue. The HH-52 has been replaced by non-amphibious types such as the HH-65 Dolphin, which rely solely on the use of a winch from a low hover to conduct rescue operations.
A number of S-62s were bought by the US Navy Bureau of Aeronautics for the US Coast Guard for use as a search and rescue helicopter. Initially designated HU2S-1G Seaguard, it was re-designated as the HH-52A Seaguard in 1962.
The HH-52A used a boat hulled shaped fuselage, smaller but similar to the US Navy's SH-3 (Sikorsky S-61), and was employed aboard the larger Coast Guard cutters and icebreakers. The S-62 used a single 1,250 hp (930 kW) General Electric T58-GE-8B turboshaft engine, a derated version of the T58-GE-10 powerplant used on the larger twin-engined SH-3; and a 1,050 hp T58-GE-6 derated to 670 hp, moving the same main and tail rotor as S-55 Model, in the prototype.
The turbine powered S-62 could carry more weight and fly faster than the H-19 (S-55). The aircraft was first conceived and designed to be amphibious so that flotation gear would not be required for over water flights, and rescues could be made by landing on the water. The fuselage is watertight for landings on water or snow. Two outrigger floats resist pitching and rolling on the water. Although the HH-52A looks very different from the Sikorsky H-19, it used many of the same components.
Prototype. First flew on the 22nd of May 1958.
Amphibious transport helicopter, powered by a General Electric CT58-110-1 turboshaft engine, with accommodation for up to 11 passengers. The S-62A was the first production version.

Back on the Chain Gang
Tommy is running late so he enters the museum through the café instead of going around to the Minna Street employee entrance. He stops and motions to Rogelio behind the counter that he'd like a coffee and Rogelio draws it right away, but not before raising his eyebrows and tapping his wrist to indicate the time.
"Dude, I know," Tommy tells him. "This is for el Jefe." Rogelio points his chin at Tommy in recognition, then shakes his head. "I know, I know, Roge: You'd never get away with this. Dumb fuckin' luck, man. Shoulda been born white." Tommy raises the coffee in a toast to Rogelio and as he turns, tosses over his shoulder, "Or got a job in security."
He crosses the lobby, assuming a gait and carriage that he imagines to be efficient and inconspicuous and indeed no one remarks on his passage. Chip Henry is at the main security desk and is listening to his girlfriend or a message from his girlfriend on his cellphone, and he says nothing to Tommy as he waves his ID badge before the card reader that lets him into the museum's inner office.
When Tommy sees Michael Young, his boss, he hands him the cup and says, "Thought you might need this."
"Looks like you needed one of those, Parks. The shift starts at 11, not 11:05." Michael looks full forward, ignoring both Tommy's baleful expression and the cup of coffee; keeps walking, his Marine strut still present in his civilian saunter, his officer's authority still coloring the timbre of his voice. Tommy sighs, not sure whether that reaction was better or worse than an outright reprimand, figuring that he will be in this job long enough to have the chance to compare.

BMI wipes Israel off the map
J Post Staff
Cheap British carrier BMI, which launched lines flying to Tel Aviv in March, deleted Israel from electronic maps presented to passengers on its flights so as not to offend Islam, Army Radio reported Thursday afternoon. However, the orientation of Mecca, the direction to which Muslim face when they pray, is shown on the electronic screens. In the electronic maps presented on BMI flights to Tel Aviv, Israel or any of its cities are not marked, except for Haifa, which is spelled 'Khefa,' a transliteration of the Arab name of the city as it was called before 1948.
BMI operates many lines to Muslim destinations and presents the 'Mecca Compass' as a service to its many Muslim passengers. The company holds services from England to Syria, Lebanon and Iran, among other Muslim destinations.
Recently BMI signed an agreement with the Tourism Ministry in order top add Israel to its roster of destinations.
The company said in response that two planes flying to Tel Aviv were originally intended to arrive in Arab countries and therefore the map was tailored to the passengers and showed mainly sites holy to Muslims.
A "logistic failure" caused the map to be presented on the flight to Tel Aviv, a company statement said, and it will be removed from the planes flying to Tel Aviv. The company was making every effort not to hurt passengers' feelings by adopting a nonpolitical position, the statement added.
BMI told stewardess to wear Muslim robe
Jon Ungoed-Thomas
A BRITISH air stewardess was sacked for refusing to fly to Saudi Arabia after she was ordered to wear a traditional Islamic robe and walk behind male colleagues.
Lisa Ashton, a £15,000-a-year stewardess with BMI, was told that in public areas in Saudi Arabia she was required to wear a black robe, known as an abaya. This covers everything but the face, feet and hands. She was told to follow her male colleagues, irrespective of rank.
Ashton, 37, who was worried about security in the country, refused to fly there, claiming the instructions were discriminatory. She was sacked last April.
"It's not the law that you have to walk behind men in Saudi Arabia, or that you have to wear an abaya, and I'm not going to be treated as a second-class citizen," Ashton said last week.
"It's outrageous. I'm a proud Englishwoman and I don't want these restrictions placed on myself."
Saudi experts and companies that recruit women to work in the country say it is a "myth" that western women are required to walk behind men. There is no requirement for them to wear the abaya in public, though many do.
Earlier this year an employment tribunal in Manchester ruled that BMI was justified in imposing "rules of a different culture" on staff and cleared it of sexual discrimination. Ashton has consulted Liberty, the human rights organisation, and may seek a judicial review of the decision.
Ashton joined BMI in March 1996, flying to the Caribbean, the United States and India. Based in Manchester, she was told in the summer of 2005 that BMI was starting a service to Saudi Arabia and she might be required to work on it.
The Foreign Office was then advising visitors of a "threat of terrorism" in the country. Ashton did not want to travel there because of the security risks, and was offended by the rules for staff travelling to the region.
A BMI document circulated to staff who might travel to Saudi Arabia stated: "It is expected that female crew members will walk behind their male counterparts in public areas such as airports no matter what rank."
Staff were also given abayas and were required to put them on when leaving the aircraft. Ashton, a practising Christian, was advised by union officials that it was considered a part of the uniform and she could face disciplinary action if she did not wear it.
Ashton said she did not want to fly to Saudi Arabia, but wished to continue flying long-haul routes. The firm said she could transfer to short-haul flights but that would have meant a pay cut of about 20%. She declined to switch to short-haul flights.
On June 13, 2007, she was told she was rostered for a flight from London to Saudi Arabia and refused to go. She was dismissed for refusing to fly and for making it clear she would not travel to Saudi Arabia.
Her letter of dismissal said it was "proportionate" to ask female employees to walk behind men out of respect for Saudi culture. BMI has also defended its decision to require female staff to wear abayas.
The Foreign Office advises women to dress "conservatively" but does not specifically advise wearing an abaya in public places. It also does not refer to any rule or convention that western women should walk behind men.
In a legal case in 2002 Colonel Martha McSally launched a legal action over American military orders that female servicewomen should wear an abaya in public places in Saudi Arabia when American women diplomats and the wives of servicemen were not expected to wear the garment. The Senate subsequently passed legislation that prohibited defence officials from requiring female personnel to wear abayas.
In the employment tribunal decision over Ashton's case it was ruled there was no evidence that women would regard BMI's requirements on wearing the abaya, or walking behind men, as "placing them under any disadvantage". Ashton's case was dismissed.
The firm said last week the tribunal ruling was "self-explanatory" and would not comment.
Since leaving BMI, Ashton has embarked on a musical career. She said one of her first songs, Shame, Shame, Shame, performed by the band Looby, was inspired by the airline.

COLUMBUS, Ga. - Police in Columbus are investigating the death of a taxicab driver who was found shot in the head.
Muscogee County Coroner Bill Thrower tells The Columbus Ledger-Enquirer (http://bit.ly/UreRxI) that 59-year-old Byron Keith Brown was pronounced dead at 4:32 a.m. Sunday.
Brown was found in the driver's seat of his van at the corner of Shelby Street and Munson Drive in Columbus.
Investigators determined that Brown had been sent to Motel 6 on Victory Drive around 2 a.m. to pick up a passenger, who was requesting to go to a location in nearby Phenix City, Ala.
Police were told that Yellow Cab dispatch last heard from Brown when he arrived at Motel 6.
Investigators were still trying to determine a motive in the crime.


Here we are at the start of another summer, and the produce is rolling in at the Market. The temperatures are rising and you are spending more time on outdoor activities with the sun going down late in the evening. What could be more brilliant for a quick, healthy, easy supper than stir-frying?
You can do your prep work ahead of time, throw it in a large skillet on the stove (no heating up the oven), or even outside on your grill's side burner or on the grill itself! A stir-fry cooks super quick and you can use whatever you find at the Market that week. Prep your ingredients and refrigerate as soon as you get home and your weeknight supper will get to the table even faster!
Vegetables: Anything you like and in season is fair game. Just keep in mind that there are different cooking times for different items. Cut your vegetables down to ¾ inch size for quick cooking. Slices of carrots or broccoli stems can be ¼ inch size. Slicing on the diagonal makes an attractive dish.
Marinating: Before marinating, protect chicken and pork with a soak in a baking soda solution (1 teaspoon baking soda dissolved in 2 tablespoons water) for 15 minutes, then rinse. This helps them stay juicy. Chicken, pork, and beef should be marinated in salty liquid (2 tablespoons soy or fish sauce) for 15 minutes. Shrimp will be overwhelmed by salty marinade, so use an oil mixture (3 tablespoons vegetable oil, 6 cloves minced garlic, and ½ teaspoon salt for 30 minutes).
Heat Oil: Use 1 ½ teasoons of oil in skillet over high heat until just smoking. Peanut, vegetable, and canola oils are best for neutral flavor and higher burning temperature. Add more oil each time you add food to the pan and if it burns, wipe it out and start again with fresh oil.
Sear Protein: Cook marinated protein in batches until well-browned. Then transfer to a bowl. If using shrimp, don't sear. Add them to the pan after searing the vegetables and aromatics and cook over medium-low heat.
Sear Vegetables: Cook vegetables sequentially starting with longer cooking items. Dry rinsed vegetables to prevent them from steaming. Dry leafy vegetables in a salad spinner.
Add Aromatics: Clear the center of the pan and add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 tablespoon grated ginger mixed with 1 teaspoon vegetable oil. Mash until fragrant, 15-30 seconds and stir into vegetables.
Combine and Add Sauce: Return protein to the pan. Whisk sauce and add to skillet. Toss until liquid is thickened, about 30 seconds.
Don't Use a Wok – A large 12-inch nonstick skillet works better on flat Western burners.
Don't Crowd the Pan – If you add all the ingredients at once, food will steam rather than sear. Cook in batches leaving space for meat to brown well.
Don't Add Aromatics Too Soon – Add ginger and garlic after protein and vegetables are cooked to prevent them from scorching.
Don't Stir Too Much – Stirring too frequently prevents proper browning.
Don't Cook Fully (When Searing) – Remove meat and vegetables before they are done so they won't overcook when added back with the sauce.
Combine ½ cup chicken broth, ¼ cup dry sherry, 3 tablespoons hoisin or oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 2 teaspoons cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil.
Now that you know how, you can get creative with anything you find at the Market in season! Experiment with different combinations and find out what you like best. Then let us know about it here on our blog! We'd love to hear from you!

Sleepovers are always fun as a kid – but here are some super special sleepover opportunities in Chicago for you and the kids that will really make for some great childhood memories!
What better way to learn about and enjoy the zoo animals than a sleepover safari at the zoo with them? You and the kids will get to enjoy various activities and learning opportunities, a night hike through the zoo, and a fun ice cream social to top it all off before tucking in for the evening. For breakfast, enjoy a breakfast buffet and a stroll through the zoo. Even though the sleepover experience finishes up at 10a, a full day's zoo admission is included for that day so you can spend all the rest of the day exploring and enjoying the animal exhibits at your leisure. There are only 5 dates left available to book in 2019 starting in September so be sure to book well in advance. An adult chaperone must accompany a child. Ages are 6-12, $85 (or $75 for members).
One of the huge perks of this sleepover is that you get to meander through the aquarium and check out all the open exhibits without any crowds! The night will be full of exploring, crafts, a scavenger hunt, science and animal activities, animal encounters, and more! This experience is for kids 5-12 and one adult is required per every 5 kids (and one kid per every 3 adults!). You'll want to check out the aquarium's website for upcoming dates and book early to get your family's spot! $85 (or $70 for members) for the experience includes a late night snack and breakfast.
If you want another zoo-themed overnight and a camping trip to remember, bring your tent and sleeping bags to the Lincoln Park Zoo for an incredible campout at the zoo! You'll pop your tent then spend your time enjoying animal activity stations, sitting around the a campfire eating smores, and hanging out with some very memorable furry friends! Wake up to the sounds of birds and monkeys that you won't find in just any old campsite, and enjoy a leisurely morning hike to finish off the campout experience. One adult is required to book for every 5 kids ages 5-12, with breakfast included and dinner available for an extra cost in advance. The campout is $65 (or $55 for members of the zoo), with an optional $15 tent rental fee.
Kids ages 6-12 can have a blast with Sue the T. Rex at Dozin' With Dinos at the Field Museum. They'll play games, try out instruments from all around the world, do fun science things like dissecting owl pellets, and have a big adventure exploring the museum by flashlight, then drift off to sleep among the museum's wonderful exhibits.

Robyn Butler, 18 August 2010
Dear Kenny,
In 1978, everyone knew that a babysitting job was the holy grail of a pre-adolescent existence. Nineteen seventy-nine was a different story. That was the year the horror movie When a Stranger Calls was released and babysitters everywhere, terrified that a crazy man was chopping up the children, all applied for jobs at Target. But 1978 remained a lunatic-free, halcyon year for babysitting, and I'm writing, a little tardily, to say thank you for giving me my first taste of it.
This may seem like a dreadful admission, but I can't remember your children's names; in fact, I would be lying if I said I even remember what sex they were, let alone what they looked like. This is, no doubt, in part, due to my innate negligence, but also because they were always asleep by the time my duties began.
I'm sure this was an enormous relief to you and your wife. I'm sorry, I can't remember her name either, but I do remember she was exceptionally pretty, a lot like Dolly Parton, except she was tall and had a small chest. And wore glasses. Maybe she reminded me of John Denver. No, she definitely had big blonde hair and was generous with her makeup application… Anyway, the point is that your children being asleep must have been not just a relief but a requirement, as I wouldn't have known what to do with them if they had been awake, given that, at twelve, I was only a couple of years older than them myself. If they had woken with a headache or sore tooth, my solution would have been to play Monopoly.
Luckily, for all of us, they never did wake up, and I was free to luxuriate in your lounge room, as its 1978 décor intended. Alone, I could revel in the white fluffy carpet, the black leather lounges and the mirrored tiles all over one wall. I had often imagined myself as belonging to that couple on the private plane, lathering themselves with Cussons Imperial Leather and ordering the pilot to Tahiti, and here, in your lounge room, I pretended this was where I, and my beautiful-smelling parents, lived. Truthfully, though, Kenny, the fantasy never lasted long. While I knew the choice of mirroring just the one wall showed real restraint, your lounge room overwhelmed me. And even though my family, sadly, only ever washed with Sunlight soap, that couple on the plane did seem a little creepy.
If the lounge room itself wasn't entertainment enough, in the corner of the room sat an enormous television. Not only was it an enormous television, which, unlike at home, didn't require a pair of pliers to change the channel, it was also an enormous colour television. The first time I clapped eyes on it, I knew my life had changed. Now, I could go to school and tell Mandy Metcalfe that I, too, had watched colour television. And this time it wouldn't be a lie. For once, too, I would be able to knowingly join in the conversation about Charlie's Angels, having actually watched it, instead of The Duchess of Duke Street. Like drinking lawnmower fluid, Charlie's Angels was strictly forbidden in my house. Despite my protests that Sabrina, played by Kate Jackson, wasn't frothy like the others, that she had real mettle, which Charlie obviously depended on in tricky cases, my mother maintained it was crap. Easy for her to say, she didn't have to go to school with Mandy Metcalfe.
Just when I thought it couldn't get any better than being on a black leather couch watching colour television, catching sideways glimpses of myself in your one mirrored wall, I would remember that your lovely wife (again, apologies for the memory lapse, I want to say Janelle?) had ushered me into the kitchen before leaving and invited me to help myself to some snacks. 'Did she say "snacks",' I would think to myself, 'surely she meant last-meal-before-you-die?' as I poured myself a Coke. Who had Coke in their fridge? Wasn't Coke a treat for everybody, limited solely to an outing to the Chinese restaurant, and limited to one glass, if you wanted to order the fried ice-cream at the other end?
But here I was, drinking Coke and choosing whether to open first a block of Dairy Milk chocolate, salt and vinegar chips or Lolly Gobble Bliss Bombs. It was a no-brainer. Lolly Gobble Bliss Bombs, every time. You must remember Lolly Gobble Bliss Bombs, Kenny. Ridiculously sugary clusters of popcorn, geniusly coated in caramel. In a twist of sad irony, I think the name of the product, which so perfectly encapsulated the experience of the treat, may have been its downfall, the market considering it too much of a mouthful.
I hope you don't think I'm placing too much emphasis on the sweet component of the job, but you must understand my home. We were inevitably the family in the supermarket queue behind the woman whose trolley overflowed with Milo, jam, white bread and Coco Pops, while my sister and I stared dismally at my mother's selection of rolled oats and Vogel's loaves.
You and your family, I understood, pushed the trolley in front of ours. There was no doubting that you, Kenny, had made good. And was I glad. I liked you a lot. You were larger than life, a ginger-haired, pink and freckly Dennis Lillee. Without the fast bowling, but with the moustache. You had an infectious giggle and made other people laugh, and I remember that when your family moved from New Zealand into a house a few doors up, my parents were delighted to meet such a bon vivant. And to use the term 'bon vivant'. Unlike the rather dreary Edgar family before you, who came for a Christmas drink but, on arrival, declared that they were happy to have a drink, but, as they were Jehovah's Witnesses, it wouldn't be anything to do with Christmas. You can imagine that put rather a dampener on festivities, as the adults sipped their beverages, steadfastly ignoring the Christmas tree next to them. Meanwhile, the little Edgar children stared at our gaudily wrapped presents, guarded by the plastic reindeer whose red-light nose blinked on and off depending on whether the batteries were flat, and I stared at them with abject pity. Did they even know who Rudolph was? We may have had a staple diet of brown bread and porridge but at least we had Christmas. How insane were their parents? They had made some gruesome link between Christmas and religion and now they had to suffer for it?
Thankfully, Kenny, you were nothing like the Edgars. You were, sensibly, a Catholic who chucked in a midnight Mass at Christmas then got up and watched your kids open shitloads of presents. You were a worthy recipient of the spoils of capitalism, in my eyes, mostly because you were willing to share it with me.
An opinion that was confirmed when you drove me home at the end of the evening in your silver Porsche. Fast. Obviously, it was a Porsche. And you were drunk.
I know it sounds bad, Kenny, but I don't blame you. It was 1978. It was a crime if you weren't driving home drunk. A bit like the muu muus that everyone was wearing that year, 1978 was loose, colourful and would be remembered with guilty regret as time went by.
Things were different then. Things were freer. Kids were given big responsibilities. By the time I was employed by you, at the age of twelve, I'd been catching the bus home by myself for four years. Yes, more than once, I flew off the bus in a panic, having dreamily floated a few stops past mine. Yes, one afternoon, two older girls, with truculent hairstyles that signalled their intentions (black at the back, peroxided fringe up front), stubbed a cigarette out on my wrist. Yes, Bob the bus driver once asked me to show him more than my bus pass, but these were mere blips on my radar of independence. It never occurred to me that life should, let alone could, be any different. Ironically, I did not see myself as the architect of my destiny; I was an observer in all these events, still a child, to whom things seemed to happen, rather than me being responsible for anything at all.
Which is why I was thrilled to be blithely entrusted with the care of children I barely knew, and exactly how I felt at three am as we went careening through the dark streets, my bottom unfamiliarly close to the ground in your Porsche. Vaguely aware that my life was in mortal danger yet already planning how and when I would tell Mandy Metcalfe that I had earned twenty dollars this evening.
Kenny, I really can't thank you enough.
