Placing the color image on top of a photo is acceptable, provided that the background color is light enough for the logo to be legible. If there is not enough contrast, use the reversed logo.
Adequate clear space around a logo protects it from being crowded by other graphic elements and text on a page. Space equivalent to the x-height of "youth" should be kept free of text, photography and any other imagery. The "x" height and width will vary according to the logo size. Use a more generous amount of space to further enhance the logo's legibility.

Q: Using C to replace the first half of a file with the second and truncating? So I have a big file, and once it reaches a certain size, I want to totally remove the first half and shift the second half down, effectively making it half the size. Heres's what I'm thinking:
FILE *fp, *start;
int ch, block_length, filesize;
char c;

//open the file and initialize pointers
fp = fopen(FILEPATH, "rb+");
start = fp;
rewind(start);

//Check the size of the file
fseek(fp, 0, SEEK_END);
filesize = ftell(fp);

if(filesize >= LOG_MAX_FILE_SIZE)
{
  //Go to middle of file
  fseek(fp, (-1) * LOG_MAX_FILE_SIZE/2, SEEK_END);

  //Go forwards until you get a new line character to avoid cutting a line in half
  for(;;)
  {
     //Read char
     fread(&ch, 1, 1, fp);

     //Advance pointer
     fseek(fp, 1, SEEK_CUR);

     if( (char)ch == '\n' || ch == EOF)
        break;
  }

  //fp is now after newline char roughly in middle of file

  //Loop over bytes and put them at start of file until EOF
  for(;;)
  {
     //Read char
     fread(&ch, 1, 1, fp);

     //Advance pointer
     fseek(fp, 1, SEEK_CUR);

     if(ch != EOF)
     {
        c = (char)ch;
        fwrite(&c,1,1,start);
        fflush(start);

        //Advance start
        fseek(start, 1, SEEK_CUR);
     }

     else
        break;
  }

  //Calculate length of this new file
  block_length = ftell(start);

  //Go back to start
  rewind(start);

  //Truncate file to block length
  ftruncate(fileno(start), block_length);

}

But, this seems to be doing some very very strange things (padding the file with 'f''s, mixing up lines and some characters inside them, etc.).  Does anyone have any ideas as to what I may be doing wrong in this code?  Thanks beforehand!

A: Part of the problem I think is that you are using fseek while reading.  The call to fread and fwrite advance the file pointer.  If you call fseek, it will then skip the next character.
In the following sequence of code, the fread call will read a character and advance the current offset to the next character.  The subsequent fseek then skips that character and moves to the next.  So it will read every second character.
fread(&ch, 1, 1, fp);
fseek(fp, 1, SEEK_CUR);

The same issue exists with the write call (it does not need a subsequent seek).  Also, since the edit to the OP shows that start and fp are the same value, the logic will not be correct (you would need separate file pointers to use that logic).

A: Having found your start position, you can copy the file in big chunks (say 64 KB at a time), reading from the tail and then skipping towards the start and writing, before skipping back to the tail...
The ftruncate() is the final step to release the space.
Consider whether it would be easier to have a read file stream and a write file stream pointing to the same file.  Less seeking on a single stream (so simpler code).  It's what I'd probably do.

This can be played either with past and future time clauses.
Prepare cards. Choose two different colors for the cards. Say pink and yellow. On pink cards, write an activity such as wash the dishes, make the bed, etc.
On yellow cards write a conjunction that is used in time clauses.
Divide the class into two.
Explain the students that they have to choose two pink cards and a yellow card and make a correct sentence.
Draw a tic-tac-toe grid on the board and play the game.
Alternatively you can pass the pink cards and ask your students to write activities on the cards.
I think this is a great game especially for younger children. It will make them think and it sounds fun putting together the different sentences!
I am adding a "comma" card, so they practice when to and when not to use commas.

Influential Wars of Ancient Times
In ancient times, war was commonplace as civilizations and empires sought to expand their territory and conquer their enemies. All of the wars that occurred in antiquity resulted in casualties and political changes, but some wars were so decisive, they changed the course of history. Whether empires met their end, an unprecedented number of lives were lost, or prominent military leaders were killed in these wars, the end result was lasting influence on the world.
The Battle of Kadesh (1274 B.C.E.)
Regarded as one of the oldest documented military conflicts, the Battle of Kadesh occurred between the Egyptian forces, led by Ramesses II, and the Hittite Empire, led by Muwatalli II. This battle was decisive because Ramesses II used specific tactics to surprise and overwhelm the Hittite forces, leading to an Egyptian victory. The Battle of Kadesh highlights the unique military tactics and formations used by Ramesses II as he kidnapped Hittite spies, tortured them, learned where Muwatalli's army was located, and sent his own army to attack. Muwatalli saw the approaching army and sent his chariot force south to counter the ambush. This battle resulted in several thousand casualties but no victor, and the Battle of Kadesh concluded with the first documented peace treaty between the Egyptian and Hittite forces.
The Battle of Muey (1046 B.C.E.)
In Asia, China was highly sought after by multiple competing dynasties, and the Battle of Muey occurred between the Shang and Zhou dynasties as they fought to determine who would command the nation. The composition of the armies contending for China was vastly different; the Shang dynasty had more than 530,000 soldiers as well as 170,000 armed slaves among their ranks, and the Zhou dynasty's army consisted of just 50,000 trained combatants. As the battle progressed, a majority of the Shang's slaves defected to the Zhou forces, and soldiers among the Shang ranks also followed suit. Despite having a greater number of soldiers in their military, the Shang dynasty ultimately suffered defeat at the hands of the Zhou soldiers who were more skilled in combat. As the result of this battle, the Shang dynasty was destroyed, and the Chinese emperor killed himself, allowing the Zhou dynasty to assume control. This victory led to the institution of the Zhou rule, which has been regarded as the longest-reigning dynasty in Chinese history.
The Battle of Plataea (479 B.C.E.)
At the time of this battle, Greece had established a number of city-states across its empire, and the Greek forces that fought in the Battle of Plataea were comprised of soldiers from these regions. Because of the divided nature of the Greek empire, the size of its army (at least 100,000 strong) can be considered impressive, especially against the Persian forces which, according to Herodotus' accounts, numbered around 300,000. The battle began with a stalemate that lasted approximately 11 days; it is believed that this stalemate occurred for a number of potential reasons including both sides believing themselves to be evenly matched against the other and reservations by the Greek forces regarding the ability of the Persian army to make use of the terrain. The Persian army ultimately made the first move by circling around to flank the Greeks and igniting their supplies, following up this assault by conducting a frontal cavalry attack on the main Greek troops. However, the Greek army was able to retaliate, and the battle resulted in more than 20,000 Persian casualties. This battle allowed the Greeks to adopt a more offensive military strategy in the future that contributed to additional conquests and the changing nature of Greco-Persian wars to come.
The Battle of Zama (202 B.C.E.)
As one of the most influential military figures in history, Hannibal led a number of successful expeditions in the name of Carthage. However, even he was not without defeat. During the Battle of Zama, the Romans fought against Hannibal's forces with a plan to defeat the elephants he employed for war. With a strategy to alarm and mislead the elephants through the use of loud noises, the Romans were able to set the animals against the Carthaginian troops. The elephants that did not rampage were easily killed, and the Roman forces were able to encircle the Carthaginian infantry and defeat them. Hannibal was able to escape, but Carthage's military suffered a great loss with 20,000 soldiers captured by Roman forces and another 20,000 killed in battle. Following this momentous defeat, Carthage never challenged Rome again.
Waging war comes with a goal and a price. The battles highlighted above feature moments of significant influence based on political outcomes, the number of casualties, and the effect on history.

Mudslide in Mexico leaves at least 7 dead
Jul 12, 2019 (4 days ago) | IANS
Puebla (Mexico), July 12 : Seven people - three adults and four minors - died when part of a hillside collapsed in central Mexico due to heavy rainfall, local authorities said Thursday.
"Based on preliminary reports, seven bodies without vital signs have been recovered corresponding to three adults and four children; additionally, medical units have transferred two rescued minors to Hospital del Sur," the Puebla state government said in a bulletin.
The incident occurred at a site where a party was being held Wednesday night in Santo Tomas Chautla, a small town that is part of the municipality of Puebla, capital of the like-named state, the Efe news reported.
The mudslide, which occurred just before midnight on Wednesday, was triggered by torrential rains in central Mexico that had begun in the afternoon hours.
Emergency-management units of several different government agencies were immediately dispatched the scene and began the task of rescuing the injured.
It is unclear at the moment whether any individuals remain trapped amid the debris, while the exact number of people injured is unknown.
During the rescue efforts, emergency personnel rescued two young children who were taken to a hospital for medical treatment.
Authorities, however, have not ruled out a possible rise in the death toll in the coming hours, the bulletin said.
The area of the mudslide, meanwhile, has been declared a danger zone since more rain is in the forecast over the next several days, it added.
The bulletin also urged residents of the area to be attentive to official instructions in the coming hours so they can relocate in a timely manner to safer ground if necessary.
An update on the emergency work carried out Thursday morning is expected during the day.

I am planning a series of posts that walk a reader through building a simplistic application using Ext-GWT as the choice of technology for the user interface, Hibernate as the ORM, HSQLDB as the backend, and the Spring Framework to manage all of the application objects and bring everything together. I've chosen these technologies, but they are not the only options. They are all open source/freely available.
Now all you have to do is inject the appropriate implementation of BarInterface into Foo, and Foo will run as desired. The Spring Framework handles this type of "wiring up" of the components in a declarative fashion.
Why would you want to externalize "wiring up" your application components to a framework? Well, first, think of the "wiring up" of your application as "assembling the components together so that it can run." The application, once it's assembled and running, is a very different concern than the configuring and assemebling that went into it. For example, assembling the desk you just bought from a furniture store is a completely different concern than actually using it to store pencils and papers once you've completed assembly. Identifying and separating concerns like this helps to modularize and decouple the application into manageable and maintainable pieces.
Second, Spring does a good job of getting out of the way and not requiring the user to depend on the framework. In other words, your application objects do not need to use any org.springframework.* classes if they do not want (or need) to. Spring will allow your application objects to be completely unaware of the dependency injection container.
For our example, we'll modify the reference "Mail" program that ships with Ext-GWT, and give it the functionality of creating, reading, updating, and deleting (CRUD) emails from the ficticous "mail system" that we'll implement.
Before continuing, however, I highly recommend the reader download and play around with the Spring Framework. There are great tutorials online, and the reference manual is excellent too.
CRUD example: Ext-GWT + Spring + Hibernate was published on February 26, 2009 .

Q: How does relay or Apollo-react solve mutations that involve multiple relationships Suppose I have a react application with these features on a single page:
New books,
Books by author xyz,
Create new book
Now suppose I create a new book by author xyz. The page is updated in two places, there is one more new book, and there is one more book by author xyz.
How do apollo-react and relay differ in their approach to solving this issue? How do they solve this issue? Most of the examples I have seen only show rudimentary mutations

A: Here's how to solve this in Apollo.
Let's say we're working with the following query for this part of the UI:
query AllBooks {
  newBooks {
    title
    author { name }
  }
  author(id: "stubailo") {
    id
    books {
      title
    }
  }
}

Of course in reality you might have some pagination, variables, etc. But for this example I'll just use something simple.
Now, let's write a mutation to create that new book, it might look like:
mutation CreateBook($book: BookInput!) {
  createBook(book: $book) {
    title
    author { name }
  }
}

Now, we have two main options in Apollo to handle this.
First option is to simply refetch the entire query:
client.mutate(CreateBookMutation, {
  variables: { book: newBook },
  refetchQueries: [ { query: AllBooksQuery } ],
})

This is simple and effective, but might not be efficient if for some reason that query result is super expensive to calculate.
The second option is to incorporate the result by updating the entire query result. You can use updateQueries, but the newest way recently introduced is to use the update callback on the mutation with the new imperative write API:
client.mutate(CreateBookMutation, {
  variables: { book: newBook },
  update: (proxy, mutationResult) => {
    // Get data we want to update, in the shape of the query
    const data = proxy.readQuery({ query: AllBooksQuery });

    // It's fine to mutate here since this is a copy of the data
    data.newBooks.push(mutationResult.createBook);
    data.author.books.push(mutationResult.createBook);

    // Write the query back to the store with the new items
    proxy.writeQuery({ query: AllBooksQuery, data });
  },
})

As you can see, with GraphQL it's not much easier than in other data loading solutions to keep the UI updated. The API doesn't give you much information about where the new data should go, so you have to tell Apollo what to do with it.
Notably, this is only the case for adding and deleting items - updating existing items works automatically.

Q: Disable Mylocation Marker Tap in MapKit Swift I am adding MKAnnotationView in Apple map and make a tap event in the annotationView.But Mylocation marker is interacting the annotationView tap.How to overcome this problem.Hope you understand my problem.Thanks in advance.
 func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, viewFor annotation: MKAnnotation) -> MKAnnotationView? {

    var annotationView = MKAnnotationView()

    guard let annotation = annotation as? ClientLocation
        else{
            return nil
    }
    if let dequedView = mapView.dequeueReusableAnnotationView(withIdentifier: annotation.identifier){
        annotationView = dequedView
    }
    else{
        annotationView = MKAnnotationView(annotation: annotation, reuseIdentifier: annotation.identifier)
    }
    ////////////////////////
    ///////////////////
    annotationView.rightCalloutAccessoryView = button
    annotationView.canShowCallout = true
    return annotationView
}

func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, annotationView view: MKAnnotationView, calloutAccessoryControlTapped control: UIControl) {
}

A: On your delegate
 public func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, didAdd views: [MKAnnotationView]) {
        let userView = mapView.view(for: mapView.userLocation)
        userView?.isUserInteractionEnabled = false
        userView?.isEnabled = false
        userView?.canShowCallout = false
}

A: It's working for me. Try this
override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    mapView.userLocation.title = nil
}

A: you can customize your annotation view using the delegate method viewFor annotation from MKMapViewDelegate.
EDIT:
I just tried to reproduce your code, what puts me in doubt is just your class ClientLocation. If your guard let return nil you have to check this statement.
What you have to do is to check the kind of view class is coming from your delegate, like that:
if annotation.isKind(of: MKUserLocation.self) {
    // this means we are handling the blue point or the user location.
    //then you can set the parameters for this view like
    annotationView.canShowCallout = false

    // or even unable user to interact with
    annotationView.isUserInteractionEnabled = false
}

Your delegate should look like:
func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, viewFor annotation: MKAnnotation) -> MKAnnotationView?{
    var annotationView = MKAnnotationView()
    guard let annotation = annotation as? ClientLocation
        else{
            return nil
    }
    if let dequedView = mapView.dequeueReusableAnnotationView(withIdentifier: annotation.identifier){
        annotationView = dequedView
    }
    else{
        annotationView = MKAnnotationView(annotation: annotation, reuseIdentifier: annotation.identifier)
    }

    if annotation.isKind(of: MKUserLocation.self) {
        annotationView.isUserInteractionEnabled = false
    }
    ////////////////////////
    ///////////////////
    annotationView.rightCalloutAccessoryView = button
    annotationView.canShowCallout = true
    return annotationView
}

The purpose of NASA is to preserve, advance, and promote the social and educational aspects of Indian Cultures and to develop closer cooperation among students. NASA provides two generous scholarships for Native American students. One of the two sources for these opportunities is Swiss Berne Days; the second donor prefers to remain anonymous.
The goal of this organization is to aid, prepare, strengthen, unite, preserve and educate Native American Students and to emphasize the rich traditional, cultural, and spiritual aspects of the diverse American heritages. UNAS wishes to unite all clans/tribes/nations into a political entity that preserves and honors individual cultures and traditional spiritual beliefs. This organization also seeks to promote freedom of expression by providing a platform for diverse voices in the Native American community, to network with other Native American groups in the state university systems with the purpose of strengthening the entire Native American community statewide, and to actively seek educational funding through scholarships, grants, and other community resources for IPFW Native Americans in need.

Congratulations to Felicia Beeching, who received a political science degree from IPFW in May 1996! She will enter law school at the University of Iowa in the fall on a full three-year law fellowship. A single mother of eight, Felecia overcame staggering obstacles to achieve her goal. At times she worked three part-time jobs in addition to her full class load and the responsibility of the day-to-day care of her children. She earned a variety of scholarships which helped her academic progress. Despite all of her other commitments, Felicia remained active in extracurricular activities such as being editor of IPFW's student newspaper, The Communicator, founding president of United Native American Students, a class representative for the Student Ambassador Council, and a student representative on the IPFW Honors Program Advisory Board. In 1993, she was voted IPFW Student Leader of the Year.

IPFW International Services was created in February of 1987, when it was given the goal of diversifying IPFW's student population. The university felt that our American students would greatly benefit from having international students in their classroom and learning about them and their countries in order to better adjust to a competitive and diversified world market. In the past 10 years, students from over 70 countries have chosen to attend IPFW, and they have changed IPFW from a regional-campus setting to a mini worldwide educational environment that has enriched the communities in northeastern Indiana and will continue to do so in future years. As with domestic students, international students are primarily recruited by satisfied, enrolled students at IPFW. Faculty, professional contracts, relatives living in the Fort Wayne area, and written communications are also recruiting tools that are used in the competitive world market. International Services provides services to both its new and continuing international students. These services include evaluation and transfer credit from other colleges throughout the world, English as a Second Language and TOEFL, evaluations, visas and other related paperwork for the Immigration and Naturalization Service, housing information, orientation and personal counseling, community outreach, and career planning.  The office also helps with individual overseas educational opportunities and travel and coordinates various campus various campus and community ethnic and cultural celebrations. The service also sponsors the International Students' Organization, the "A View of the World" film series 10 times each year, and a faculty lecture series. All of these events are free along with most events sponsored by the ISO. All IPFW students, faculty, administrators, and community members are encouraged to join the ISO (annual membership fee is only $5) and participate in its many activities. During this past year, ISO was chosen as the best organization at IPFW, and its continued success depends upon the ideas and work from both new and continuing members. Further information can be obtained from the International Services office in Walb Union 118, 219-481-6923.
To enhance our understanding of Martin Luther King, Jr., and his contributions to American life, Multicultural Services is planning a variety of events surrounding the annual celebration of his birthday. Our annual commemoration is set for Wednesday, Jan. 15, 1997, at noon in the IPFW Williams Theatre. We will present a theatrical production featuring university and community talent.  Open auditions will be Sunday, Nov. 24, at 1:30 p.m. in Williams Theatre, Room 113. We are looking for people with various ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Ages: early teen through 60s. Rehearsals will begin in December and continue through the holiday break. Music for the commemoration will be provided by the Fort Wayne Youth Ensemble.
Diversity stimulates creativity, promotes the exchange of ideas, and enriches campus life. Diversity involves the differences among individuals that reflect the cultures from which the university draws strength. This includes, but is not necessarily limited to, race, ethnicity, color, gender, sexual orientation, class, age, and disabilities, as well as political and religious affiliation and socioeconomic status. In recognition of this, IPFW is planning their second annual Diversity Week, with events, activities, and displays pertaining to diversity each day throughout the week of March 17-22, 1997. Many events will be forthcoming. Look for further details in our spring issue of Multicultural Expressions!

The United State Olympic Committee (USOC) Intern Program is now accepting applications from eligible students for internship positions for the 1997 winter/spring semester. Internship sites are Colorado Springs, Colo., Lake Placid, N.Y., and Chula Vista, Calif. Eligible students are defined as those who have completed at least two years of college and are enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate degree program with an expected graduation date no earlier than June 1997. Applications for the 1997 winter/spring semester must be received by the manager of coaching and intern programs in Colorado Springs no later than Oct. 1, 1996. Late or incomplete applications will not be considered. Capital Cities/ABC Inc. Newspaper Internship Program is a minority-oriented editorial training program geared toward recent college graduates seeking a career in print journalism. The graduates are selected to work at three newspapers for four-month intervals. Applicant finalists are invited in the winter to interview before a selection panel, and those chosen are notified by mid-February for the program year beginning in June. The Walter Kaitz Foundation places talented ethnic minority men and women in career positions in the cable and television industry. Applicants must meet the following requirements: • Ethnic minority status as defined by the FCC, • four-year college/university degree, • two to five years professional work experience, • no previous cable experience, and • willingness to relocate nationwide. If you meet the above criteria, contact Multicultural Services for the foundation's address and fax number and for more information.
The Minority Teacher Scholarship was created by the Indiana General Assembly to address the critical shortage of black and Hispanic teachers, Special Education teachers, and physical or occupational therapists in Indiana schools and rehabilitation facilities. Scholars may receive up to four scholarships (if funds are available) and, from the date of receiving their first scholarships, may take up to six years to complete their certification program. Contact the Multicultural Services office for more information, eligibility requirements, and application.
The Nursing Scholarship Fund was created by the 1990 Indiana General Assembly to encourage and promote qualified individuals to pursue a nursing career in Indiana. The program is administered by the State Student Assistance Commission of Indiana (SSACI) which is responsible for record-keeping and for allotting funds to approved colleges and universities. Contact the Multicultural Services office for more information, eligibility requirements, and application.
This program is designed to provide students with more concrete information concerning careers not commonly discussed or in which there is underrepresentation among minority groups, including persons of color, women, etc. This is done in an effort not only to encourage students to seriously consider such professions, but to increase their knowledge so they can keep their options open for learning. Students are presented with in-depth information concerning professions rather than the cursory information traditionally given in career-awareness programs, which typically offer fewer opportunities for personal exploration and examination. An average of 20 ninth-, 10th-, and 11th-graders attended each day of the four-week program this past summer. The majority of the first week was spent in an intensive SAT preparation and study skills course. The following weeks focused on preparing the participants to make choices and to face the upcoming challenges of taking an apartment, living in a dorm, going to college, and obtaining a job. Students participated in a number of field trips to places in the community, such as: Tygeron Graphics, Republican and Democratic Headquarters, Canterbury Green Apartments, Allen County Courthouse, and the Foellinger Foundation, among others. They were privileged to learn from local professionals Herb Hernandez, president of the Fort Wayne Hispanic Chamber of Commerce; Rae Pearson, president and CEO of Alpha Rae Personnel, Inc.; and Rheba Knox, a citizen contact officer for the City of Fort Wayne, who came to campus to speak to them. The students also completed several projects designed to facilitate personal growth. Mentors who worked with the program included coordinators Paulina A. Salvador and Timothy L. Lake, assistants Deborah Diaz, Dave Frey, and Chandelyn King, SAT workshop leader Gerry Draper, and study skills leader Greg Anderson.
Mondays-Thursdays, 8 a.m.-6 p.m.; Fridays, 8 a.m.-5 p.m.

This is the king of northwest ferns. Its stately appearance and adaptability for almost any site condition, make it one of the most usefull of all native plants. The clump of upright, evergreen leaves has an architectural quality and can be used as a structural element in almost any kind of planting. It can also be used as a ground cover. Does best in organic soils but can stand the most acidic conditions found under cedar and redwoods. As older fronds die they provide excellent amphibian habitat around their base.


The Rallycross League is separated for each platform, unlikely the Rally League, and will feature a single tier on each of these platforms. In the unlikely circumstance that there are more sign-ups than we can handle, a second tier will be created.
Each round will take place on a saturday, starting at 7:45pm BST. The schedules for the upcoming round will be released 2 hours before the start, thus 5:45pm BST.
Season 5 will consist of 5 rounds. The first 5 will take place on the full circuits of each available location (Montalegre, Lydden Hill, Hell, Höljes and Lohéac).
In order to accomodate for the new stream every race will be raced separately from each other. The starting grid of the first heat is determined at random by a randomizer.
The second and third heat are similar to the first heat, the only difference being the way the starting grid is determined. The second heat's starting grid will be determined by the results of the last round. And the third heat's starting grid will be determined by the current standings of the championship. If any of the above methods is not feasible than we'll result to random grids such as the first heat.
At the end of each heat, depending on the results, heat points will be distributed to the drivers based on their race time compared to the other drivers, with the fastest gaining the most points and the slowest gaining the least.
In this league the only assists that are allowed are Automatic Gears and Stability Control. Meaning that Traction Control, Anti-Lock Brakes and Launch Control have been disabled. These assists have been banned because they give a mechanical advantage to the car, and detract from the driver requirement in racing.
If anyone is found using these assists they'll be immediately disqualified from the championship and removed from the league.
Heat points are awarded according to each driver's time in each heat, rather than their finishing position in that specific race. For both heats 1 and 2, drivers score points for there position in the following format: 50, 45, 42, 40, 39, 38 etc. These points are added from heats one and two, and converted into 16 points for the overall winner, down to 1 point for the 16th highest placing driver, and 0 points for drivers 17th and below.
What is important in this league is aiming at completing the events. Getting a DNF because of for example having an unrecoverably car is obviously nothing to do anything about but otherwise it's important to complete the events. Either DNF / DNS is seen negatively. Enough DNS' can also result in getting removed from the leagues. You can read about this in the league rules. You must inform a coordinator if you know you will be absent from an event.
Drivers and constructors are ranked in the standings based on how many points they've scored over the course of the season.
If two or more drivers or constructors are tied on points, the higher place in the standings will be awarded to the holder of most first places. If the number of first places is the same, the holder of most second places, then third places, and so on until a winner emerges.
For the Rallycross Leagues we have a specific team of coordinators for each will be running the respective leagues. The coordinator team on each platform will announce the running schedule for each event of the season hours before it is due to begin, at 5:45PM BST. Throughout the event the coordinator will also announce the lobbies that will be taking place as a result of prior races, so it is important to keep in contact with the coordinator on the forums throughout each event of the season.
If you want to speak about something directly concerning the platform you're on, it may be good to contact a coordinator that is on that platform.
If you generally want something via a forum post, you can tag us all using @DiRT Coordinator, this is the easiest and fastest way to get in touch with us.
Each lobby is to be created by a Coordinator or Officiator throughout each round of the calendar, making use of the following settings for the appropriate stage of the round.

Review: ISDT and the British Army in Wales
21 Saturday Sep 2013
Posted by Highwayman in Enduro, International Six Day Trial, ISDT, Motorcycling, Motorsport, Places, Trials, UK, Wales
Army, Kinmel Camp, Military, North Wales, Royal Marines
The British Army's presence has been one of prominence in the UK enduro scene since as long as I (new editor) became involved in it since in the late 70's. At that time Service teams were both prominent with a long legacy of support for the sport including help for non service participants, certainly since the 1930's. Not only did the service teams take part in events but without access to the British Army's greatest training areas in the Brecon Beacons National Park it may have been difficult for anyone to have organised the several ISDT events that took place in Wales. The British Army Motoring Association has overseen motorsport within the army since 1960.
I even recall being told that when British Parliament introduced legislation limiting participants in road going motorsport events to 180. As a result of British Army interventions to government, both the ISDT and the Welsh Two Day Trial were given exemptions because of their importance in the Service training regimes so that they were able to get sufficient entries for service teams without it being at the expense of civilian competitors.

I know from the queries and hits we get that there is a lot of interest still in service teams and bikes and will try to explore this relationship with off road trials further. This post however will look at a single example which recently came to light when I obtained a copy of Motor Cycling from 1960 for an article in the ISDT. On the very next page after the ISDT feature was a report into the Army's National Two Day's Trials Championships of 1960. I have seen mention of this event elsewhere but this report particularly interested me as the event had been held in Wales and not the usual suspect of the Sennybridge Ranges area but in North Wales at the rather small base set at Kinmel Park near Bodelwyddan, Denbighshire just off the modern A55 North Wales expressway. A base with little or no land holding which often only ranks in history because of the death of a number of Canadian Soldiers during the first world war in what are still seen as very tragic circumstances. The area had a number of small military ranges but most of these have been disposed of from Army Estate during recent years. In order to facilitate the event which included a 130 mile circuit which would have been mostly off road as far as Llangollen and probably included the use of the Clwydian Hills, all of which had in the past been part of the ISDT route and are still in use for Observed Trials such as the Foster and Lomax cups.
The article of the 6th October 1960, which is reproduced below, indicated the event had been a touch challenge and that Servicemen mostly rode the same BSA Sidevalve model, and the 1960 Service ISDT riders who only a week earlier had been rinding the ISDT 1960 took part.
A WIDE variety of qualities were demanded from competitors in last week-end's Military Championship Trial from which W.O.II A.Timms (Depot R.M.P.) emerged as the British Army title holder. The Army's International Six Day men were well to the fore.
The fixture was run in North Wales, with Kinmel Park Camp. near Rhyl, as the headquarters, and for the first time was spread over two days. Except for a couple of teams of Royal Marines. the 127 entrants were all Regular, Territorial or National Service soldiers. all of whom had qualified in District and Command Trials.
There were representatives of the British Army of the Rhine, Scottish Command. Northern Ireland Command. and the four English Commands. The entire entry (except the Marines, with Triumphs) were mounted on W.D. 500 c.c. B.S.A. side valves.
On the first day of task was a l30-mile circuit, mainly in the hills of Denbighshire. A stretch of cross-country work came early on, later there being a timed section in quarries near Moel-y-Faen, off the Llangollen·Ruthin road near the Horseshoe Pass. Fastest here was Cpl. Allerton (4/1 Gordons T.A.) with 26.7 sec.
Fresh from their participation in the International Six Days Trial, Sgt. George Norton (R.E.M.E., and. 2 Gren. Gds.), W.O. II Timms. W.O. II Mervyn Edwards (28 Sig. Regt.) and Sgt. Bill Brooker (L.R.B.Rangers T.A .) all finished the day without loss of marks. Others to come through without penalty were Sgt. Barnett (D. and M. School), Sgt. Winslade (4 Wilts. Regt. T.A.), Cpl. Corstorphine (24 Sig. Regt.), Sgt. White (284 Norfolk Yeo. T.A.), Capt. Hutchings (45 Lancs. T .A.), and Cpl. Barnes (1 Trg. Batt. R.A.S.C.).
Out of 35 teams entered, 13 had retired by the end of Saturday's round. The leaders at that time were 28 Sig. Regt. "A," 42 marks lost, then came 1 Trg. Batt., R.A.S.C., 45 , followed by 24 Sig. Regt. "A," 50. and 284 Norfolk Yeomanry,52. All of them kept their team placings to the finish.
There was another 9a.m. start on the Sunday, this time the course being made up of a dozen conventional trials sections, tackled before lunchtime in the vicinity of Kinmel Camp. Over-night rain made the surface exceptionally sticky. One slippery, winding descent,through a wood,caused numerous falls. The nearest to a "clean" score here was by Pte. Davies (31 Trg. Regt.,R.A.), who skated down with only a "dab".
Knee-deep water, which filled the dip in the final section consistently drowned motors until Norton sidled through with a "dab." Then, shortly afterwards, Winslade made a feet-up crossing and Brooker and Sgt.Tewell (Royal Marines) were also "clean" here. At several points the advatage lay with Norton and Barnett, whilst the performances of Timms, Winslade and Rigby were also outstanding.

Hi, These pages are really good, thanks for taking so much time to pull together. I was looking for references to my Dad and I see him in the ISDT pages and here .. although you've got a typo … he was SGT. Gordon Norton not George … but he was definitely in the R.E.M.E and attached to the Guards as you wrote in this page.

Q: What the the equivalent of vb's On Error Resume Next in Java? I'm working with some ASP code which I'm not really to familiar with. I need to convert/change the code below (original code) to Java (Which I'm no expert in)
I understand some of the syntax but I'm kind of stuck at the line of code beginning "On Error Resume Next" I don't know which function to use that Java uses.
This part is throwing me off

any help would be appreciated

A: The answer to this question really comes down to:

*

*(1) Do you want to replicate this EXACTLY.. or...

*(2) Do you want to Do-The-Right-Thing (tm)

If the answer is #1, congrats. It's as simple as try{} catch(e) all of the code between
On Error Resume Next

and
if (Err.number <> 0) {

Err.number and Err.Description were the error code/description. You can just use the Exception components instead.
If the answer is #2, then you'll want to only try {} catch(e) the code that can exception out, and act on each exception correctly and according to what the failure was. Each method has different exceptions that it can throw. Looks like the only method is the actual ADO Open() call, so that's the only one I'd wrap in a try{} catch().
Either way, you aren't going to have all of these ADO Properties to log. I'd log whatever exception/exception text/stacktrace gets spit out as part of the exception object.

A: It's the vb script way to handle exceptions, tells the program to continue execution to next line when an error occurs.
Answered here What does the "On Error Resume Next" statement do?

District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said, "Justice 2020 will reshape the Brooklyn District Attorney's office into a model of progressive prosecution that keeps the public safe and strengthens community trust by ensuring fairness and equal justice for all. We will move away from over-reliance on incarceration, engage all stakeholders as partners in justice, focus resources on those who do the most harm and make my Office more strategic and mission-driven. I am deeply grateful to all of the people, many of whom have personal experience within the system – who helped develop this comprehensive blueprint, which we have already begun implementing. As we continue to reap the benefits of historic decreases in crime here in Brooklyn and across the country, now is the time to focus on reforming injustices in the system that have led to over-reliance on incarceration and a lack of trust in the criminal justice system. In many cases, incarceration does not keep us safer, and I am committed to shifting to ways of holding people accountable and increasing public safety that don't rely on incarceration as the default option."

Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez today announced that following a thorough investigation by his Conviction Review Unit (CRU), he will move to vacate the murder conviction against Bladimil Arroyo, 39, who has been incarcerated since 2001. The investigation found that the defendant was deprived of a fair trial because the only direct evidence against him consisted of a confession that included a false fact likely transmitted to him by police – that the victim was stabbed rather than shot – and certain detective notes were not disclosed to the defense. Arroyo is the 25th individual whose conviction has been vacated by Brooklyn's CRU since it was established in 2014.

Home Premier League Manchester Utd Nani axed
Nani axed
By NEIL CUSTIS
NANI will be axed by Manchester United.
The Portuguese winger is going to pay a high price for his poor performance in Monday's 1-0 defeat at Everton.
Nani can also forget about a new contract — or being allowed to leave on the cheap.
A United source said: "The club did not think his form at the end of last season put him in a very strong bargaining position over a new deal. Monday was hardly his best either."
Ashley Young is set to replace Nani for Saturday's visit of Fulham.
Nani, 25, has become frustrated at the collapse of talks over a new four-year deal.
The United source added: "There was an intention to get him on a new four-year contract.
"But initial demands from Nani's side were way over the top. Right now United are happy to leave it until next summer unless his demands are dramatically dropped. But they won't sell unless silly money comes in."
Nani has two years left on his £90,000-a-week deal but wants in excess of £130,000.
Zenit St Petersburg are interested but United will not consider selling unless they get an offer of more than £25million.
United last night confirmed Chilean striker Angelo Henriquez, 18, has been granted a work permit.

This Winter semester I took on a new teaching assignment: an advanced German class called Senior Projects in Language. The title is a placeholder. Each year the faculty member who teaches the course gives it a unique name. However, this placeholder name intrigued me and I decided that there was no better name for a senior course in German, especially if the focus of the course were project-based learning!
Project-based learning in the second language classroom is not new. It has been used in second language classrooms for over thirty years. In German, the term is handlungsorientierter Unterricht (action-oriented teaching). It speaks to the active learning that takes place when students are involved in projects. Experiential learning provides concrete ways for students to learn the language while pursuing topics of interest.
My specific challenge for this class was the small enrollment (4 students), the lack of familiarity the students would have with project-based learning (PBL) and my own limited experience with PBL. To give the class structure, I had each student create a video, a multimodal presentation and a website. The students co-created the rubrics for these assignments in German at the beginning of the semester. I supported them with class sessions on web 2.0 tools, activities to improve their German and lessons on pop culture. We profited from the support of a teaching assistant who taught lessons on translation and comic books. These classes were interspersed with peer feedback sessions in which the students reviewed each others' work. While this was new to them, they caught on quickly. Most of all, they thoroughly enjoyed exploring their own topics and sharing their learning with their classmates, an audience of other German learners (another advanced class) and the wider world (since their videos and websites are on the internet). They learned to talk about their projects, their learning, and what they felt made a good final product – all in German!
In the end, my small number of students were a blessing since I was able to allow each student to pursue the project s/he chose. Their lack of experience with PBL was quickly overshadowed by their strong passion for their projects. The experience of designing a project-based learning course helped me to expand my teaching repertoire. Looking back, I can see things that I would like to have done differently, knowing now that some students need more structure than others and students work best when the class lessons directly support their projects. Overall, however, I consider the design of this semester's course to be a success and can't wait for a second opportunity to teach this course.
Update: I didn't get a second opportunity to teach this class, because I got a job in a different faculty, but I did go on to work with the subsequent instructors in the design of the course. As well, I have a chapter coming out about that first experience. Stay tuned!
