It's been three weeks since I went from being a brunette to having blonde hair. Or, more specifically, neutral, creamy beige, color-of-my-dreams hair. Right off the bat my colorist told me that my hair texture would change, but I didn't immediately realize how many products from my brunette hair-care routine would have to be purged. That lesson came when I got home: I quickly realized that the products I previously relied on for texture (Sachajuan's Ocean Mist shampoo, Lush's Veganese conditioner, and Bumble and Bumble's Sea Salt Spray) were far too drying for my newly double-processed hair.
I'd heard horror stories about healthy hair turning brittle and dehydrated after bleaching, and refused to let that happen to my own locks. So I set out to look for nourishing, moisturizing products that would keep my dyed hair happy.
Since going blonde, my hair-care routine has now become as elaborate as my skin-care routine. The days of washing my hair with whatever shampoo is around, sometimes skipping conditioner (actual shudder), and air-drying in the humid summer air are behind me. I now (daily!) use hair masks, leave-in conditioners, oils, and hydrating sprays. I'm proud to report that as a result, my hair is so visibly healthy that I get DM'ed almost daily from friends, strangers, and acquaintances asking if I would please spill the beans. I've tried and tested all the products my colorist Emaly recommended, done some of my own research, crowdsourced from other people who have gone blonde, and now feel as though I've found the best products for my very high-maintenance hair. So I decided to make a Google Doc … just kidding. But really, it is just as thorough. Without further ado, my list of products for keeping double-processed (or any hair, really) hair healthy.
Since going blonde, I've become a little scared of shampoo; my colorist told me that if you use the wrong one, it can seriously dull your color. The key is to find something that cleanses well but is also super gentle. I love this intensive hair shampoo from Sachajuan — it gets rid of excess oiliness but doesn't feel at all stripping.
As Jen Atkin herself put it, this product is perfect for "when you've put your hair through hell but you want it to feel like heaven." Another incredibly gentle yet effective option that will clean your hair without over-stripping it or making it feel dry or brittle.
This is the best shampoo to use if you're worried about damaging your color. It doesn't feel as moisturizing as the shampoos above, but I'm always really happy with how my color looks after I use it. On days when I use this, I use one of the below masks afterwards to protect my texture.
I only wash my hair once every five or six days to prevent dryness. Since that also means I don't condition daily, I've basically just done away with conditioners and replaced them with intensive hair masks instead. That way, I pump a ton of moisturize, nourishment, and love into my hair weekly, instead of frequently using a standard conditioner that doesn't provide all that much moisture. I leave hair masks in for different amounts of time depending on my schedule, but regardless of how long you leave your mask in for, it should be put on wet hair, immediately after shampooing. Sometimes I'll leave it in for 10 to 15 minutes while I'm shaving, other times I'll get out of the shower and leave it on for an hour, then get back in to rinse it off. Some other times I'll even sleep in it (with a towel over the pillows, or with a shower cap on) and rinse in the morning. One of my all-time favorite masks is this regenerating one from Christophe Robin, which I usually leave in for an hour. Out of all the masks mentioned here, this is by far the most hydrating. It makes my hair feel so bouncy, fluffy, and soft. I love using this after spending a lot of time in the sun or when I can feel the ends of my hair getting a little crispy.
I like to sleep in this one. It's really great at nourishing and restoring color-treated hair. Since it's not really as thick as the Christophe Robin one, I'll leave it in overnight to let the treatment really do its thing. I'm also addicted to the smell. I choose this over the Christophe Robin mask on days where I want my hair to feel really bouncy and light — this one is just a little less intensely moisturizing and thickening on the hair.
Ouai makes the best masks for travel: They come in small, packable containers, and work exceptionally well. I recently brought them with me to Los Angeles and they saved my (hair's) life.
Another really great option for giving your hair nourishment without weighing it down. Honey is a known wonder ingredient: It helps with acne and digestion, and also, as it turns out, on hair. This mask leaves my hair looking super shiny, fluffy, and bouncy. I don't use this overnight; I either rinse it out immediately, or keep it in for an hour.
If you have bleached or dry hair, odds are you've tried this or at least heard a million people rave about it. Here's how I use it: I shampoo, apply a generous amount on my hair, sleep in it, wake up, shampoo again with another reparative shampoo, and then use the Gisou hair mask as a quick five-minute leave-in product. The Olaplex and Gisou hair-mask combo is simply divine.
I don't use this mask all the time, but every few weeks when my color is looking worse for wear, I use this mask from Christophe Robin to restore the perfect beige color. I recently started to panic because my hair was looking a little brassy, but after one use I saw a major difference. Since this product is more about color maintenance than moisturizer, I use a ton of leave-in conditioner after washing this out.
After I've washed out whatever mask I've used, I spray this leave-in conditioner into my towel-dried, damp hair. It just gives my hair that one final kick of moisture and nourishment it needs to ensure it feels perfectly silky and smooth once dry. It sounds crazy that you'd need yet another step after you've already done so much work, but it really will give your tresses phenomenal finish.
Technically you're supposed to sleep in this as a kind of overnight treatment, but I just treat it as I do any leave-in conditioner and use it no matter what time of day I showered. Like the above, I use this on towel-dried, damp hair. It does a great job at taming frizz and flyaways.
I use hair oils by keeping them by my side at all time, and running one or two pumps through the ends of my hair whenever it's feeling dry. And I'm obsessed, obsessed, obsessed with this oil. It's super thick and honestly looks like you're about to apply straight-up honey onto your hair, but it never makes my hair feel weird and heavy. When I apply this it feels like I am pumping life back into my strands. Sometimes I add a drop of this hair oil into my hair masks (especially the Gisou mask) when I want an extra kick.
This hair oil isn't as intense as the Gisou one, but it's great for a quick, light, boost when you're rushing out the door and don't have much time to style your hair. I use a single pump and run it all over my hair. I also absolutely love the way it smells.
Since I only wash my hair once a week, sometimes I find that it gets a little greasy on day five or six. Two pumps of this on my scalp and the greasiness is as good as gone.
The intensely moisturizing products I now use sometimes make my hair look a little too fluffy — if that's the case, I will use this spray to give it some defined texture. It gives me lovely, soft, messy curls and doesn't dry out my hair or undo the nourishing treatments I now spend so much of my life using.
On the days I shower and don't wash my hair (almost every day), I wear this. I also wear this cap on nights I do an overnight hair mask. This cap is actually really cute and chic, and it's nice that my boyfriend doesn't find me terrifying.

Putting Culture in its Place: A Critical Engagement with Cultural Political Economy

Ngai-Ling Sum and Bob Jessop present Cultural Political Economy (CPE) as a project that seeks to deepen Critical Political Economy (C*PE) through an engagement with the cultural turn. This article critically assesses their success in such an enterprise. It begins by framing CPE within Jessop and Sum's previous work on the Regulation Approach, in order to show why the former can only be understood as the result of a critical dialogue with the latter. Next, my reconstruction of the main elements of Sum and Jessop's CPE is presented. After having carefully examined its main assumptions and concepts, I criticise CPE's main novel element, an ontological cultural turn, due to the culturalist risks it engenders. In order to substantiate and exemplify that theoretical criticism, I review CPE's application to the analysis of the North Atlantic Financial Crisis. This article concludes by showing the main difficulties that CPE faces as an alternative for deepening C*PE and proposes the Amsterdam School of Transnational Historical Materialism as a more suitable direction in which that initiative could be advanced.

The 1939 State of the Union Address was given to the United States Congress, on January 4, 1939, by Franklin D. Roosevelt, the 32nd United States President. Foreseeing World War II, he said, "In Reporting on the state of the nation, I have felt it necessary on previous occasions to advise the Congress of disturbance abroad and of the need of putting our own house in order in the face of storm signals from across the seas. As this Seventy-sixth Congress opens there is need for further warning. A war which threatened to envelop the world in flames has been averted; but it has become increasingly clear that world peace is not assured."  In September 1939, the War in Europe began.

Canada's African Queen Mines sells shares to invest in mine prospecting in Mozambique and other African countries
Vancouver, Canada, 21 Oct – Canada's African Queen Mines announced in Vancouver that it has privately placed 7.5 million shares, earning 4.875 million Canadian dollars to be used for company operations in Mozambique and other African countries.
A company note stated that the amount will be used to finance gold exploration projects in Mozambique, Kenya and Ghana and to look for diamonds in Botswana and Namibia, and also to eventually acquire assets and serve as working capital.
Early this month the company announced that prospective drilling at the Rei Solomao project in Mozambique's Tete province indicated the presence of significant amounts of copper, gold and silver.
African Queen Mines is involved in the project in partnership with the Swiss company Opti Metal Trading Ltd and has concessions to exploit gold in Mozambique, Kenya and Ghana, and diamonds in Botswana and Namibia.
In the latter two countries the company holds concessions for an area of 9,200 square km. In Mozambique its concession covers 230 square km and in Kenya it holds 112 square km to exploit gold and other minerals. (macauhub)

The Prosecutor's Office asks for a million dollar fine for Carlos and John Pólit
The trial of former Comptroller Carlos Pólit and his son John Pólit, for the crime of concussion in the Odebrecht case, began on Monday, May 28. Three days later the Prosecutor's Office made the official accusation.
Father and son were designated as author and accomplice respectively in this offense consisting of pressing or asking for certain economic favors from the public position held. That is, take advantage of the functions that are required to comply.
Based on this, the Office of the Prosecutor requested a fine of $ 40.4 million each, in addition to the publication of the decision decided on in 3 newspapers of national circulation.
The argument of the Office of the Prosecutor
Once the trial was over, prosecutor Paúl Pérez accused the former comptroller as the author of a concussion in the Odebrecht case and named his son John as an accomplice. They would have favored the Brazilian construction company in exchange for 10.1 million dollars. The Office of the Attorney General explained that, of the total amount, $ 6 million was received in exchange for failing glosses against the construction company, and $ 4.1 million for the issuance of favorable reports from the Comptroller's Office in five strategic projects in which the construction company participated.
He also revealed that the son of the former Comptroller had placed $ 1.7 million in the companies Cosani and Plastiquim simulating credits from the company Venture Overseas.
The Attorney General dispensed with having Jorge Glas as a witness to the trial, although he was originally expected to attend. In total there were 18 people who gave testimony, and an audio of the conversation between Carlos Pólit was presented. and José Conceição Santos, Superintendent of Odebrecht in the country, this reveals the form of payment that would have demanded the former Comptroller.

All mistakes 3 audio problems1 character mistake59 continuity mistakes1 deliberate mistake2 factual errors2 other mistakes7 revealing mistakes9 visible crew/equipment mistakes Order by popularity Order chronologically Suggested corrections Significant dates Titles starting with J
Continuity mistake: When the Aunt flags down the cop car, the cop has his seat belt on, as the plant starts coming in the car to grab him and the car. He jumps out of the car without ever undoing his seat belt. (01:14:45)
Continuity mistake: When the insect sits on the windowshield of the car Robin Williams says that the insects can't make a hole, they are safe, then the insect makes a hole, the car drives away creating havoc on the road because of extreme bad driving. The car stops, they get out, then there is no hole in the windowshield. (00:40:10)
Continuity mistake: Carl's cop car has the licence plate "G2298" which is printed thinly on the licence plate. Then, when the vine wraps around his car, and bends it in two, the licence plate is now "CFJB95", printed very boldly on the plate. The words "POLICE 004" also differ, as does the bumper and the lights. Totally new car, methinks... (01:14:55)
Continuity mistake: When Alan is trapped on the floor, and the game is placed over his head, Sarah rolls the dice which fall on the lower left corner. When the angle changes they've moved further to the right.
Continuity mistake: When Peter runs out of the attic to the woodshed to get the axe, to the left of the attic door is a large filing cabinet, with nothing in front of it or beside it. Yet later when Peter is swinging the axe at the spiders, and following shots, a green suitcase has appeared in front if it. (01:22:45 - 01:25:00)
Continuity mistake: When Judy is talking with Carl outside the front of their house as Alan examines the police car, Judy's pigtails are alternatively in front of, or behind her shoulders during shots. (00:33:00)
Continuity mistake: When the monkeys are destroying the kitchen the kids open the kitchen door and the monkey on top of the refrigerator knocks the cereal box to the floor. A few seconds later the cereal box is back on top of the refrigerator and the monkey knocks it over only spilling the contents. (00:26:45)
EKE64
Continuity mistake: At the construction site, Alan claws through the mud, to get to the large metal box. His fingers get covered in mud, yet as he pulls the box out of the mud, and in following shots, the tops of his fingers and his fingernails are very clean. (00:07:00 - 00:07:50)
Continuity mistake: When Peter rolls the dice prior to letting the monkeys loose, whilst him and Judy are in the attic, he rolls both "1"'s. The sides of the dice which are visible read "3" on one die and "4" on the other. Then when it cuts to a closeup of the boardpiece moving, the "4" now reads a "2", and the dice have also moved position. (00:25:15)
Continuity mistake: When the monkeys are causing chaos in the kitchen, a monkey throws three knives at the kids. Two of them stay in the door, but one bounces off and only makes a nick in the wood. Later in the film, when Robin Williams is in the kitchen, and he blocks the door, you can see that the two knives that were stuck in the door are still there, but the nick in the wood has gone. (00:27:10)
Continuity mistake: When Van Pelt comes out of Jumanji, he starts shooting at Alan. Alan then runs through the brown doors, and Van Pelt shoots, misses, and blows a large hole into the door. Yet when they all return to the room, the hole in the door is smaller. (00:53:20 - 00:55:25)
Continuity mistake: When Alan is trying to get Jumanji back from the pelican, he grabs a fish from the water, and his sleeve becomes soaking wet. In the next shot his sleeve is bone dry. (00:59:05)
Continuity mistake: In one of the closeups of Alan sitting in the car as it is crashing through the displays inside the Sir Savalot Store, the background, visible through the driver's side window, is of open fields, trees and blue sky. (01:13:00)
Continuity mistake: When Sarah, Judy and Peter are in the store, where the riot is going on, they spot the Jumanji Board Game sitting on the till counter. To the right of the till is a very large "Sand and Water Activity Table" box. In one shot the box it facing so you can see the upper part/top of the box. It then cuts, and the box has mysteriously rotated 180°, so that you can now see the lower part/bottom of the box! In the same shots, there is a trolley by the till, with some items and a box in it. Cut back to the trolley and there's now two boxes in it! It then cuts, and the box is back to it's original position, and the box in the trolley disappears! If you look more closely, the entire shelf unit behind the counter is completely different!!! (01:05:55)
Continuity mistake: When all the monkeys are in the kitchen, Judy and Peter open the door to peek inside, and a monkey throws a tomato at the kitchen door, making a big stain of tomato juice on the door. When the monkey throws the knives at the door though, the stain has vanished, and the door is clean. (00:25:55)
Continuity mistake: After Peter discovers the bat in the attic, he runs downstairs screaming, and you can see a chair by the door of the attic with a white cloth sitting on it. However when Aunt Nora walks upstairs, there is no sheet on the chair. (00:18:00)
Continuity mistake: When Alan confronts the lion with a knife, the blade is either facing flat or sideways depending on the angle.
Continuity mistake: After Alan traps the lion in the bedroom, it makes claw marks in the door. The marks change greatly from the first close-up of them being made, to the second shot when Alan walks away from the door. (00:28:35)
Continuity mistake: When the earthquake begins, the floorboards start to break in two, and Alan starts falling so Sarah holds onto him. Watch the small circular window in the wideshot. (the window that the mosquito flew out of earlier in the film) To the left of the circular window are some empty wooden beams, but no items. When it then cuts to a closeup of the window breaking in two, items have appeared on the beams, and there's a banjo hanging up etc. (01:25:30)
Continuity mistake: During the stampede, when the four are watching the animals pass by the hall, Sarah is randomly next to Alan or behind him. Also, when the stampede ends, the four swap from being separate to firmly together in a mere frame.

More trivia for Jumanji
Question: When Judy was stung by that plant and she collapsed, I never really understood what happened. She collapsed but was she poisoned and killed or just paralyzed? Anybody have the faintest idea? That's the only bit I never understood. I thought she was shot by poisonous darts...
Answer: Since the barb was poisonous, she was dying. This is seen when she begins looking pale and a few seconds later she isn't moving. Finishing the game was the only way to save her life.
Chosen answer: She was just temporarily immobilized by the venom - it wears off after a few minutes.
No, it doesn't. Alan said the purple plants shoot poisonous barbs. After being hit, by them, Judy was slowly being poisoned to death.

Q: Adding a SuccessHandler to an AuthenticationProvider in a Spring application How can I add a SuccessHandler to an AuthenticationProvider in a Spring application?
I made the following WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter from baeldung tutorials:
@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
public class LoginConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {

    @Autowired
    private GatewayAuthenticationProvider authProvider;
    @Autowired
    private GatewayAuthenticationSuccessHandler successHandler;
    @Autowired
    private GatewayLogoutSuccessHandler logoutSuccessHandler;

    @Override
    protected void configure(final AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) throws Exception {
        auth.authenticationProvider(authProvider);
    }

    @Override
    protected void configure(final HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {

        http.csrf().disable();
        http.authorizeRequests()
            .antMatchers("/admin/**").hasRole("ADMIN")
            .antMatchers("/welcome*").permitAll()
            .antMatchers("/login*").permitAll()
            .anyRequest().authenticated();
        http.authenticationProvider(authProvider);
        http.formLogin()
            .loginProcessingUrl("/perform_login")
            .defaultSuccessUrl("/dashboard")
            .successHandler(successHandler);
        http.logout()
            .logoutUrl("/perform_logout")
            .deleteCookies("JSESSIONID")
            .logoutSuccessHandler(logoutSuccessHandler);

    }

}

As you can see the .successHandler(successHandler) method is applied after .formLogin(), so it seems to to configure form login and not custom login from the AuthenticationProvider.
But .authenticationProvider(authProvider) returns a HttpSecurity object, which does not have a .successHandler(successHandler) method.
Is the trick in the AuthenticationProvider class definition itself?

If you think that Macs are not vulnerable to spyware and malware attacks, you are wrong – they are, but they haven't become primary targets yet.

However, not all users rush to care about such changes, since the web page this hijacker promotes doesn't look suspicious.
This picture shows Search.nunu-app.com search engine, which appears in victim's browser when Search.nunu-app.com hijacks the computer.
In fact, it looks like a very simple search engine, which can't pose any threat to the computer. Sadly, it can. Although it doesn't do damage to the computer system in a direct way, it provides a lot sponsored search results next to organic ones, and it is a well-known fact that authors of browser hijackers hardly ever endorse content their affiliates share on their websites. Therefore, Search.nunu-app.com redirects can take you to insecure places on the Internet, and you definitely do not want to go there.

These suggestions are typically written in fine print below Default or Standard installation options, but users tend to ignore such details and just proceed with the installation without modifying these settings first. You should switch the installation settings to Custom or Advanced option and then manually deselect all suggested programs. This way, you will prevent installation of unwanted programs and keep potentially unwanted programs away from your computer system.

Berserk and the Band of the Hawk Review
Since the first Dynasty Warriors, developers like Omega Force have redefined what it means to "hack and slash" their way through a torrent of enemies. They've released various side games in the past, usually based on real history that's been over-inflated, but have taken a liking to include anime into their games. One Piece and The Legend of Arslan are notable past Warriors games also based on iconic anime. Therefore, being the "weeb" I am, I needed to get my hands on it in case not many copies sold. The addiction quickly infected me and I was hooked but maybe for the wrong reason?
Captures the anime perfectly: Berserk fans will be pleased at the overall look and feel of Band of the Hawk as it encompasses the visceral nature that is the anime/manga. The team at Omega Force did their utmost to include as much gory detail as they could with body parts flying everywhere and people getting chopped in half. Some of the more R-rated material has been excluded such as sexual scenes and nudity but this still feels as true as it can be to the source material. The story is perfectly told throughout the game
Not just for fans: While this may come as a refresher to fans of the series, other enthusiasts out there will be pleased at the inclusion of Berserk anime clips as the cut-scenes, being able to follow the story from beginning to where it is now it is currently aired. Although it is true that the battles occur during game-play so they'll miss out on how the anime portrays those but they will be pleased that the character-building and more emotional side of the show is present. This Berserk-Warriors title ensures that the story is brought forth and the player will have a good time watching it. Going further than the anime and into the manga has the game models used for the cut-scenes afterwards, still trying to present the story as best they can and with fantastic voice acting in Japanese only.
Can choose difficulty from the beginning: Experienced Warriors players will be happy to dive into a challenge right off the bat with the BERSERK difficulty which is the arduous mode where enemies deal more damage and have higher hit points. New starters coming into the game will be satisfied with slaughtering thousands on Easy mode which is very gratifying, all while enjoying the story in comfort. Understanding the easy controls will make higher difficulties not too strenuous at any point in the game, especially after leveling up but also giving veteran players a good challenge from the start.
Addictive: As was said before about slaughtering thousands, there's just something about Warriors games that really gets people hooked into them. Omega Force has always done a good job at transferring anime-enemies into a hoard of disposable pawns to cut through. Guts easily becomes the 1000-man killer and it's so satisfying in every way to do it. Players will enjoy the unique attack patterns of all the characters as they mow across the field of battle. There's lots of stuff to do in this game and the Endless Eclipse mode really gives the player a chance to continue endlessly past the main story. Replay value for the story isn't very high and Free Mode, where you can play the same missions as other characters, only presents the opportunity to play the same story as another character; this doesn't add any new dialogue, however.
Cut-scenes are too long: Omega Force did include much of the anime into the cut-scenes but that's just it, it may take a long time to get through them and other dialogue in order to get to the next battle. What One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 did nicely with their short-and-sweet cut-scenes is that they animated with the character models and it looked good but they were short so not too much time was spent waiting until the next battle. Even though the anime is superb it still defuses the gamer to not be pumped anymore but revert to a relaxed viewer mode.
Trophies are tedious: Veterans will be well aware of the grinding nature of the Trophies for Warriors titles. This may come as a shock to anybody Trophy hunting out there but this won't be a walk in the park as you'll require many hours to dump into game-play. Leveling up every character will be exhausting before taking on Endless Eclipse mode with each of them and require a lot of replaying of the same levels and skipping scenes they've already seen many times.
Focus is on Guts: Yes, Guts is the main "squeeze" when it comes to Berserk but it would have been nice to have more missions in the main story that solely focus on other characters. There are many times in the series where we saw or heard what the others went through and that could have been transferred into the game. Not only that but a Warriors game like this could have had potential "what if" scenarios or possible backstory missions that had characters fighting in past events only explained in dialogue. The main problem is that the game follows the series too closely and doesn't really take a chance at being creative with the material.
Berserk and the Band of the Hawk is highly addictive to those people who love Warriors games as there's lots of content to grind through. As goes with most Warriors games this will be one of those that you can get back into anytime as a stress reliever to just smash waves of enemies with a powerful character. The models for characters/enemies look amazing and so do the environments that make the story told after the anime cut-scenes look good. The inclusion of the anime is fun but can make the player relax to the point of forgetting they're playing a game, somewhat like the Metal Gear Solid series and their lengthy scenes. This is a must buy for Warriors and Berserk fans out there but not really something that anyone else can get into as it becomes redundant in terms of game-play, which makes it very niche.

Cartoons, are what everyone grows up watching, in days of exams and in days of vacations. Not just in childhood, watching cartoons ends up giving a breeze of peace to adults and grown ups, in a world full of tensions. Cartoons are one of the tools that use colors to communicate something. In fact, colored moving images capture children's attention before they even understand any message, providing them a world full of symbols that reflect complex concepts to explain to a young child.
Cartoons end up bringing our minds at peace. There have been many amazing cartoon shows that we all have grown up watching since childhood, ranging from "The Simpsons" to "Oswald" to present day's "Motu Patlu". Let's go down the memory lane and revive some old memories.
The Noddy Shop or Noddy in Toyland (in the United Kingdom and Australia), commonly known as Noddy, is a Canadian-American children's television series based on the renowned Enid Blyton's children's book series of the same name with stop motion segments from Noddy's Toyland Adventures.
Well, most children grow up watching this cute cartoon TV series and singing the Noddy song, I'm sure you did too!
Oswald is another famous cartoon show whose main lead is Oswald. Oswald is a safety-conscious but fun-loving octopus who lives in an apartment complex in Big City with his dog, Weenie. Colorful characters like his pal, Henry the Penguin, Madame Butterfly, who runs the Big Diner, and her daughter, Catrina Caterpillar live in his neighbourhood. Oswald likes to play the piano and sing, and he always does whatever he can to help his friends and neighbors. Have you too always wanted to watch more at the end of the episode? Well, the magic of Oswald has been amazing.
The cartoon show, "The Simpson's" exhibits a working-class father Homer Simpson and his dysfunctional family deal with comical situations and the ups-and-downs of life in the town of Springfield.
The show again, is an amazing one and a must watch for the current generation of kids.
And the tag line of the series goes like, 'Bob – The Builder's, we would do it, yes brother yes'! To get past problems and things done with a positive attitude, Bob the Builder and pals dig, haul and build together! With friends like Muck the dump truck and Dizzy the cement mixer, Bob and his business partner Wendy live in an imaginative world full of unique and lively experiences.
'Popeye the Sailor Man – I am Popeye the Sailor Man….', it is a cartoon fictional character created by Elzie Crisler Segar.
Popeye got "luck" from rubbing the head of the Whiffle Hen; by 1932, he was instead getting "strength" from eating spinach. Swee'Pea is Popeye's ward in the comic strips, but he is often depicted as belonging to Olive Oyl in cartoons.

It Might Not Be A Great Idea To Buy Patria Investments Limited (NASDAQ:PAX) For Its Next Dividend
Simply Wall St
9 November 2022, 5:33 am ·3-min read
Patria Investments Limited (NASDAQ:PAX) stock is about to trade ex-dividend in 4 days. The ex-dividend date occurs one day before the record date which is the day on which shareholders need to be on the company's books in order to receive a dividend. It is important to be aware of the ex-dividend date because any trade on the stock needs to have been settled on or before the record date. Therefore, if you purchase Patria Investments' shares on or after the 14th of November, you won't be eligible to receive the dividend, when it is paid on the 7th of December.
The company's next dividend payment will be US$0.17 per share. Last year, in total, the company distributed US$0.71 to shareholders. Last year's total dividend payments show that Patria Investments has a trailing yield of 5.1% on the current share price of $13.94. Dividends are an important source of income to many shareholders, but the health of the business is crucial to maintaining those dividends. So we need to investigate whether Patria Investments can afford its dividend, and if the dividend could grow.
Check out our latest analysis for Patria Investments
Dividends are usually paid out of company profits, so if a company pays out more than it earned then its dividend is usually at greater risk of being cut. Patria Investments distributed an unsustainably high 200% of its profit as dividends to shareholders last year. Without extenuating circumstances, we'd consider the dividend at risk of a cut.
Generally, the higher a company's payout ratio, the more the dividend is at risk of being reduced.

Have Earnings And Dividends Been Growing?
Stocks in companies that generate sustainable earnings growth often make the best dividend prospects, as it is easier to lift the dividend when earnings are rising. If earnings fall far enough, the company could be forced to cut its dividend. With that in mind, we're encouraged by the steady growth at Patria Investments, with earnings per share up 4.6% on average over the last five years.
We'd also point out that Patria Investments issued a meaningful number of new shares in the past year. Trying to grow the dividend while issuing large amounts of new shares reminds us of the ancient Greek tale of Sisyphus - perpetually pushing a boulder uphill.
Given that Patria Investments has only been paying a dividend for a year, there's not much of a past history to draw insight from.
Should investors buy Patria Investments for the upcoming dividend? Patria Investments has been growing earnings per share at a reasonable rate, but over the last year its dividend was not well covered by earnings. These characteristics don't generally lead to outstanding dividend performance, and investors may not be happy with the results of owning this stock for its dividend.
Having said that, if you're looking at this stock without much concern for the dividend, you should still be familiar of the risks involved with Patria Investments. To help with this, we've discovered 3 warning signs for Patria Investments (1 is a bit unpleasant!) that you ought to be aware of before buying the shares.
If you're in the market for strong dividend payers, we recommend checking our selection of top dividend stocks.

Dalit flogging: A year later, Una victims want cases to be withdrawn
Sarvaiya demanded that the government withdraw the cases filed against the community members in the aftermath of the attack on them on July 11, 2016.

ON THE third anniversary of the Una Dalit atrocities case, the victim's family repeated their demand that state government withdraw cases filed against the community members during the violence in the aftermath of the Una case.
In a memorandum submitted to the sub-divisional magistrate of Una on July 11, Vashram Sarvaiya, one of the victims, said, "In 2016, people of Scheduled Castes in Mota Samadhiyala village of Una taluka were beaten up publicly by so-called gau rakshaks (cow vigilantes) and were subjected to atrocities by parading them. Rallies were taken out, memorandums were submitted and representations were made at many places in Gujarat as well as in many parts of India by people of Scheduled Castes, demanding immediate legal action against those so-called gau rakshaks and justice for the victims' family. However, the state government filed false complaints against the protesters and jailed them."
Sarvaiya demanded that the government withdraw the cases filed against the community members in the aftermath of the attack on them on July 11, 2016. "After the atrocities on Dalits in Una, people from (our) community took out rallies and submitted memorandums in support of the victims. We demand that the government withdraw all the false cases filed against those who were part of the agitation. If false cases are not withdrawn against them and are instead sentenced, we Dalits of Mota Samadhiyala village who were subjected to atrocities, will serve such sentences," the memorandum further said.
At least seven cases of rioting and damaging public property as well as assault on police were registered in Saurashtra during the protest against the assault on Dalits in Mota Samadhiyala village. A policeman was killed during the clashes in Amreli and a few Dalits were booked for murder.
"As many as 15 people have been convicted and sentenced to three years imprisonment in Upleta taluka of Rajkot district and three others in a similar case in Bhayavadar in Upleta taluka. Cases are pending against Dalits in Shapar-Veraval and Gondal in Rajkot district, in Jamnagar and Amreli districts also. Many cases were filed in Ahmedabad and other districts too. Police have arrested Daltis and jailed them. But those who assaulted us in Mota Samadhiyala are out on bail and are roaming free. We demand that bail of all those accused of assaulting us in Mota Samadhiyala be cancelled," Vashram told The Indian Express.
Vashram said that of the 43 accused in the case, five were in judicial custody and the rest were released on bail.
A group of cow vigilantes allegedly assaulted Vashram, his younger brother Ramesh, cousin Ashok and relative Bechar while they were skinning a dead cow in Mota Samadhiyala village in Una taluka of Gir Somnath district on July 11, 2016. The assailants accused the Dalits of slaughtering a cow. When Vashram's father Balu and mother Kunvar tried to intervene, the accused assaulted them also. They attacked Arjan Babariya and Devshi Babariya, both resident of neighbouring Bediya village and relatives of Sarvaiya.
The accused, from the neighbouring villages, then allegedly kidnapped Vashram, Ramesh, Ashok and Bechar in their SUV, took them to Una town and flogged them before abandoning them near Una police station. Videos of the accused beating half-naked Dalits went viral, causing a nation-wide outrage among Dalits. BSP chief Mayawati raised the incident in the Rajya Sabha.
Dalits in the state went on protest for around a week that turned violent in many places and cases were filed against several protesters. The Sarvaiyas have been demanding withdrawal of cases for the past three years. A special court in Veraval. district headquarters of Gir Somnath, is scheduled to start hearing the Mota Samadhiyala atrocity case on daily basis from July 29.

Across the world, varying track gauges hinder the rapid, comfortable and smooth transition of rail vehicles from one system to another. This affects rolling stock in both freight and passenger traffic. The need for vehicles able to operate on different track gauges has prompted the development of various solutions, such as transhipping goods, passengers changing coaches, exchanging wheelsets (or indeed whole bogies) for new ones able to operate on the other track gauge, or equipping vehicles and local infrastructure with automatic gauge changeover systems.
The most effective solution is a gauge changeover system whereby the vehicles can change gauge automatically during travel. On such systems, the vehicles' wheelsets adjust to the new gauge as they pass through the device, as a result of which the transition from one system to another is faster, safer, and more comfortable. Such systems incur operating and maintenance costs, however. Various automatic gauge changeover systems have been developed over the years. Some of these have never gone beyond the testing phase, whereas others have proven themselves to be safe and reliable in service.
To date, no single document provides a summarised description of all the automatic gauge changeover systems currently known to exist. This report provides a summary description of all the automatic gauge changeover systems currently known to exist and details of their key technical features and functions. Details are also given of the current status of development of individual systems and experience of their testing and operation, as well as information on maintenance of the system as a whole. The report describes systems from Europe and Japan for the gauges 1435/1520/1668/1000/1067 mm.
This report is the output of Sub-Task 1 (of 5 Sub-Tasks in total) as part of the "Automatic Gauge Changeover Systems" project.

Enemies & Allies
By: Anderson, Kevin J.
NEW 1 available
Kevin J. Anderson sets himself up for quite a challenge by choosing for his central characters two of the world's most famous characters. Between the two of them, Superman and Batman have spurned innumerable comic book stories, countless television show episodes, action figures, and at least a dozen big-screen adaptations. But Anderson's retooling of the story of when these two archetypal superheroes first meet offers a plausibly compelling plot and some interesting new back-story details. Amidst the paranoia and tensions of the Cold War, The Dark Knight and the Last Son of Krypton do not take to each other immediately--Bruce Wayne distrusts Superman's claim of being an alien, and Clark Kent believes Batman to be a criminal. Anderson deftly toys with the character differences between the heroes that have evolved over the decades, adding his own take on things as well. ENEMIES & ALLIES is a fun read, and one that fans and casual observers alike can enjoy., Shortly after Clark Kent interviews Bruce Wayne for a feature in the Daily Planet, their alter egos cross paths as Batman and Superman are drawn into Lex Luthor's scheme for world domination--a scheme that involves the Soviets, death-ray transmitters, and all the heat of the Cold War.
Condition: Like New, It looks as though it may have been read once.


What is Omega-3 EPA DHA ?
What is interesting is that whilst everyone has heard of omega-3 how many people know what EPA or DHA is ?
Why are these essential fatty acids so important to our health and emotional wellbeing ? They are known as essential fatty acids simply because they are "essential "- we cannot live without them . As the body is not able to make omega-3 for itself you must get them from your diet.
With regards omega-3 if you are vegan / vegetarian the only option is to eat foods that have it in the ALA form such as flax seed , flax oil , walnuts and green vegetables and these then need to be converted into the key omega 3 forms of EPA and DHA. For the rest of us the best forms are oily fish such as sardines, mackerel , pilchards , salmon and tuna .With regards meat you can get some omega-3 provided the animals have been fed naturally on fresh grass – then there all the products that have come to market in recent years that have been fortified with omega-3 ie. eggs , milk , yoghurt, bread etc - You need to look very carefully at the labels to determine just how much omega -3 are in these products.
So it is clear that the best way to boost your omega-3 levels is to consume oily fish , however people for a number of reasons dont consume oily fish on a regular basis or even at all . So why is this when more and more we are told of the health benefits such as supporting a healthy pregnancy , child development , mental health , cardio health , supporting healthy immune system. For some people its as simple as they do not like oily fish or they have a preference for convenience food and they dont see oily fish in that category , others it is concern especially in pregnancy of contaminents in the fish especially those further up the food chain ie. tuna . This is why we have seen a rise in the consumption of supplements as most see it as the easiest and most convenient way of ensuring they consume omega-3 however not all supplements are the same and do you know what to look for when purchasing these either in store or online.
DHA is most critical during pregnancy and early years , omega-3 and omega-6 (we have more than enough omega-6 in our daily diet so I wont go into that at present what I will say is that at the start of the century the ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 was 4 : 1 now we are a level of at least 16:1 ) is required to build a baby's brain and central nervous system – Up to 50% of your retina is made from DHA so it is clear to understand the importance DHA plays in visual development and retinal health. During pregnancy baby's use their mothers supply of DHA and this continues post natal especially if the baby is being breast fed, as a result it is really important that mothers ensure that they consume enough omega-3 – most opt to take supplements that have a higher element of DHA to EPA as there is concern about mercury levels in fish such as tuna , salmon etc. However the way round this is to buy fish from sources that guarantee they are mercury free . Fish at the bottom of the food chain such as sardines are a good alternative . You should aim to eat 2 portions of oily fish twice per week .
EPA has come to the fore in recent years , more and more research is now being done with regards this omega-3. It is recognised as a key anti inflammatory and helps support the immune system , it also plays a vital role in Cardio Health as it improves blood flow and research has shown success in the treatment of mental health disorders such as depression. There has also been success with regards improvement in concentration and behaviour in children . We have full details of all the trials and you can contact us via our website www.takeomega3.co.uk if you require specific information or if you are a medical professional we can provide you with access to the professional area of the site where all this information is held.
So what should you look for if you are going to be buying omega -3 in supplement form , it can be confusing . Even though it will say ie 1000mg Omega -3 on the front of the pack just how much EPA and DHA are you getting per capsule ? This will often be shown on the rear of the pack .We took the decision to label our products as clearly as possible so on the front so the consumer can see each capsule contains 750 mg EPA and 50mg DHA and is an 85% pharmaceutical grade omega-3 which is a one per day capsule. The majority of products currently on the market do not have anywhere near these levels or either in EPA or DHA or indeed that level of concentration which is amongst the highest on the market and is the reason why we are so proud of this product which has been manufactured entirely in the UK .
Also where does the fish come from and is it from sustainable sources again we are proud to say that we adhere to the highest possible standards of marine conservation , we only use sustainable fish stocks which come from the purest waters.-Our oil is manufactured entirely in the UK at a site that is only one of two licensed by the MHRA for the production and sale of omega 3 which underlines the exceptional standards that goes into producing Takeomega3. It was extremely important to us that when we were developing this product that we only used british companies from the design of the packaging and marketing material to the distillation and the encapsulation of the oil .We have used companies from Scotland , England and Wales so it truly is the best of british.

News, Off the Beaten Path
Off the Beaten Path – Frederick City Watershed
Dickson Mercer August 13, 2021 at 11:00am
It takes an hour to get here from Washington, D.C.
You head north on Interstate 270, pass by the main exits for Frederick and continue onto U.S. Route 15. Catoctin Mountain comes into view. And as Cactus Flats Roadhouse passes by on your left, be on the lookout for your exit: Mountaindale Road.
You wind down through fields, passing by Mountaindale Convenience Store. When you have to choose right or left, choose left, and continue on what is still Mountaindale (Putnam Road is to the right). If you start seeing log cabin-inspired homes and the Cold Deer Hunting and Fishing Club, you chose correctly, and are almost there.
You park in a small nondescript lot across from the entrance to Fishing Creek Reservoir, putting you just a little jog away from the bottom of a dirt road angled upward. A sign, before you enter this dirt road, notes your location: Frederick City Watershed.
Before I tell you more about my favorite dirt-road loop ever, let me say that I am hardly an expert of everything these 7,000 acres of beautiful forest land – known officially as the Frederick City Cooperative Wildlife Management Area – offer. I know it is popular among hunters and fisherman. I know that it is owned by the City of Frederick but managed by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, and located between Gambrill and Cunningham Falls state parks. I know, from what I hear, that there are some incredible trails in these woods: enough, in fact, to host the Catoctin 50k. And I know Camp David is somewhere in this woods-sphere.
But I am not exactly the trail shoes and mud-and-rocks type, or even a fan of casual trail running, really. This was the first time, when I brought my GPS watch for this run, that I noted how much elevation I gained. I am a road runner. Another way of saying it is: the dirt roads that most visitors use to get where they're going here, that is where I'm going here.
The climb, from the beginning, is never steep, exactly. It is steady, with 1,000 feet of elevation gained in the first four miles.
Those first 15 minutes, while your legs are still stiff, can be a little rough. But then you start to loosen up, and you find your groove in the dirt road, and you listen to the streams, and look at all the trees, and you find yourself amazed, with the shade and the dampness, that it feels cooler than the actual temperature. You think, This is the hard training.
At this point in a run, Charlie, Luke, and I, typically, would be, as that line in John Parker's Once a Runner Goes, gabbing like magpies.
But right now the conversations are more staccato. Luke, for one, realizes his heart rate is not far below his target for a tempo. The Olympic Trials qualifier – and just a righteous individual – had planned to add on a little 20-minute pick-up at the end after we finished the loop, but happily discovered the climb was sufficient.
Charlie, editor-in-chief, says things like, "This is awesome. This is awesome."
To which I say: "Yeah, I knew. You guys. Would like it."
When you first start out, you are technically still on Mountaindale Road. But soon you reach a fork, where left is Fishing Creek Road and right is Gambrill Park Road. I advise going left, and not taking any turns until you have to, about four-plus miles into the run, where you turn right on what is … Gambrill Park Road. Confused? Think of it this way: now you are returning on the road you chose not to take at the beginning, or heading back towards that fork.
After you turn right, this is where the road flattens out, and starts gradually giving you back 1,000 feet. Starting out, two-plus minutes over your typical training pace, as Luke noted, gets your heart rate up. Towards the end, running much faster than usual is breezy.
I wish I could remember how I found this place. My first newspaper job was in Frederick, and I think maybe another runner told me about it. This was back in 2005 or 2006, and I wasn't using things like Google Maps or GPS watches.
The first time I ran here, that left early on at the fork was a guess. And as I took in my surroundings, and got to thinking how much better this was than being around cars and stoplights and smashing my legs on pavement, I started hoping really hard that I was beginning a loop and not an out-and-back, and that I would get back to my car before dark.
Thankfully, it worked. I was done in 65 minutes and wrote "9" in the log. Now I know the loop, thanks to the watch, is closer to 10.
When I lived near here, I did this loop once or twice a week. Sometimes I would park up at Cactus Flats, run down on Mountaindale Road, do the loop, get in about 17, then head into Cactus Flats for some bluegrass and an adult soda. I also sometimes would do the loop once, stop at my car for a gel and water, and do it again.
In 2006, I ran my best in the marathon, so maybe the hard training on these roads really works. Maybe this watershed holds secret speed work.
All I really know is that running here is a lot of fun and refreshes your spirit. You feel really free on these roads: that clear sense of place – like, I am in Maryland, I am in D.C., I am in Virginia – slips away.
Also, afterward, you feel really hungry. So bring some snacks, or stop at Mountaindale General Store, and load up for the hour-ride back, like we did, with snacks on the cheap: Gatorade, chocolate milk, processed cakes, Pop Tarts, salt-and-vinegar potato chips, cookies, and moon pies.
I can't wait to go back.

James Packard of Warren, Ohio
Commenced making cars in 1899
Packard was founded by James Ward Packard, his brother William Doud Packard and their partner, George Lewis Weiss, in the city of Warren, Ohio.
In September, 1900, the Ohio Automobile Company was founded as the manufacturer, while the cars were always sold as Packards. Since these automobiles quickly gained an excellent reputation, and there were more automobile makers that produced — or at least planned to — under the label "Ohio", the name was on October 13, 1902 and it became the Packard Motor Car Company.

Suitable to put oon your manure tank as an extra line between pump and pressure vessel, or to use as overflow hose.
This is a real conduit 3 -4 BAR can handle pressure, and therefore very suitable for dealing with many turns without cracking.
Tip: put a piece of wire in it, and you can "put" it in any form and so also make greatl curves.

Q: how do I solve a double integral in Mathematica? I am very new to Mathematica, and I am trying to solve the following problem.

*

*I have a cubic equation of the form Z = aZ^3 + bZ^2 + a + b. The first thing I want to do is to get a function that solves this analytically for Z and chooses the minimal positive root for that, as a function of a and b.

I thought that in order to get the root I could use:
Z = Solve[z == az^3 + bz^2 + a + b, z];

It seems like I am not quite getting the roots, as I would expect using the general cubic equation solution formula.

*

*I want to integrate the minimal positive root of Z over a and b (again, preferably analytically) from 0 to 1 for a and for a to 1 for b.

I tried
Y = Integrate[Z, {a, 0, 1}, {b, a, 1}];

and that does not seem to give any formula or numerical value, but just returns an integral. (Notice I am not even sure how to pick the minimal positive root, but I am playing around with Mathematica to try to figure it out.)
Any ideas on how to do this?

A: Spaces between a or b and z are important. You can get the roots by:
sol = z /. Solve[z == a z^3 + b z^2 + a + b, z]

However, are you sure this expression has a solution as you expect? For a=0.5 and b=0.5, the only real root is negative.
sol /. {a->0.5, b->0.5}
{-2.26953,0.634765-0.691601 I,0.634765+0.691601 I}

A: sol = z /. Solve[z == a z^3 + b z^2 + a + b, z];
zz[a0_ /; NumericQ[a0], b0_ /; NumericQ[b0]] :=
        Min[Select[ sol /. {a -> a0, b -> b0} ,
                 Element[#, Reals] && # > 0 & ]]

This returns -infinty when there are no solutions. As sirintinga noted your example integration limits are not valid..
RegionPlot[NumericQ[zz[a, b] ] , {a, -1, .5}, {b, -.5, 1}]

but you can numerically integrate if you have a valid region..
NIntegrate[zz[a, b], {a, -.5, -.2}, {b, .8, .9}]  ->> 0.0370076

Edit ---
there is a bug above Select in Reals is throwin away real solutions with an infinitesimal complex part.. fix as:..
zz[a0_ /; NumericQ[a0], b0_ /; NumericQ[b0]] :=
        Min[Select[ Chop[ sol /. {a -> a0, b -> b0} ],
                 Element[#, Reals] && # > 0 & ]]

Edit2, a cleaner approach if you dont find Chop satisfyting..
zz[a0_ /; NumericQ[a0], b0_ /; NumericQ[b0]] :=
     Module[{z, a, b},
          Min[z /. Solve[
             Reduce[(z > 0 && z == a z^3 + b z^2 + a + b /.
                  { a -> a0, b -> b0}), {z}, Reals]]]]
RegionPlot[NumericQ[zz[a, b] ] , {a, -2, 2}, {b, -2, 2}]

NIntegrate[zz[a, b], {a, 0, .5}, {b, 0, .5 - a}]  -> 0.0491321
