Damascus (disambiguation)
Damascus (horse)
Damascus (Arabic: دمشق Dimashq IPA: [ˈdiːmaːʃq]) is the capital and the second-largest city of Syria after Aleppo. It is commonly known in Syria as ash-Sham (Arabic: الشام ash-Shām) and nicknamed as the City of Jasmine (Arabic: مدينة الياسمين Madīnat al-Yāsmīn). In addition to being one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, Damascus is a major cultural and religious center of the Levant. The city has an estimated population of 1,711,000 as of 2009.
Located in southwestern Syria, Damascus is the center of a large metropolitan area of 2.6 million people (2004). Geographically embedded on the eastern foothills of the Anti-Lebanon mountain range 80 kilometres (50 mi) inland from the eastern shore of the Mediterranean on a plateau 680 metres (2,230 ft) above sea-level, Damascus experiences a semi-arid climate because of the rain shadow effect. The Barada River flows through Damascus.
First settled in the second millennium BC, it was chosen as the capital of the Umayyad Caliphate from 661 to 750. After the victory of the Abbasid dynasty, the seat of Islamic power was moved to Baghdad. Damascus saw a political decline throughout the Abbasid era, only to regain significant importance in the Ayyubid and Mamluk periods. During Ottoman rule, the city decayed while maintaining a certain cultural prestige. Today, it is the seat of the central government and all of the government ministries.

Damascus (April 14, 1964 – August 8, 1995) was a Thoroughbred race horse sired by Sword Dancer (1959's Horse of the Year) out of Kerala (by My Babu) foaled at the Jonabell Farm in Lexington, Kentucky. In 1967, he won the Preakness Stakes, Belmont Stakes*, Jockey Club Gold Cup*, Wood Memorial, Travers Stakes, Dwyer Stakes (closing from 12 lengths back and spotting the runner up 16 pounds), and Woodward Stakes and was named Horse of the Year and champion three-year-old colt, plus he shared the champion handicap male honors with Buckpasser. Also in 1967, Damascus finished third in the 1967 Kentucky Derby. A high-strung horse, he was enervated by the humidity and spooked by the crowd noise, so he was thereafter given a stable pony to calm him. During the same year, top horses Dr. Fager and Buckpasser were also competing. In Blood-Horse magazine's top 100 U.S. thoroughbred champions of the 20th Century, Buckpasser ranks 14th and Dr. Fager ranks 6th. In a race many consider the "Race of the Century," Damascus won the 1967 Woodward by 10 lengths over both of these horses after his connections, as well as those of Buckpasser, used stablemates to set a blistering pace, thus weakening Dr. Fager. Damascus himself ranks number 16 in the Blood Horse listing.

Nasia: [voice-over] They used to get around, walkin' around, lookin' at stuff. They used to try to find clues to all the mysteries and mistakes God had made.

I wanted to see him lead a parade and wave a flag on the Fourth of July. He just wanted greatness. The grown-ups in my town, they were never kids like me and my friends. They had worked in wars and build machines. It was hard for them to find their peace. Don't you know how that feels? I like to go to beautiful places where there's waterfalls and empty fields.

Q: Unit test run configuration I need to get up and running with Cmocka unit testing framework. My setup is:
src/math/addition/add.c (+add.h)
int add(int a, int b) {return a + b;}

src/math/subtraction/sub.c (+sub.h)
int sub(int a, int b) {return a - b;}

Makefile
VPATH := src src/math src/math/addition
CFLAGS += -Isrc -Isrc/math -Isrc/math/addition
all: libMath clean

libMath: add.o sub.o
    ar rcs bin/libMath add.o sub.o

clean:
    rm -rf *.o

%.o: %.c %.h

Unit Tests
test/math/addition/add_test.c
#include "../src/math/addition/add.h"

void test_add() {
     assert(add(4, 5), 9);
}

test/math/subtraction/sub_test.c
#include "../src/math/subtraction/sub.h"

void test_sub() {
    assert(sub(9, 5), 4);
}

test/math/addition/add_test.c (from cmocka.org)
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stddef.h>
#include <setjmp.h>
#include <cmocka.h>

/* A test case that does nothing and succeeds. */
static void null_test_success(void **state) {
    (void) state; /* unused */
}

int main(void) {
    const struct CMUnitTest tests[] = {
        cmocka_unit_test(null_test_success),
    };
    return cmocka_run_group_tests(tests, NULL, NULL);
}

I'm new to unit testing in C and basically can't get my head around to setup the unit tests including linking the Cmocka library etc.
My idea is to have several unit test files instead of putting all unit tests in one file.
Edit based on Clearer's answer
Scaling up
Going from 1 test file to 2 and 3 and it will be at least 10+ files. Looking for some optimizations and articulations to scale up nicely and for easy management. Here's what I've so far.
VPATH := src/math/add  src/math/sub  src/math/mul # split src/test path
VPATH += test/math/add test/math/sub test/math/mul

all: libMath clean

libMath: add.o sub.o mul.o
    ar rcs bin/libMath add.o sub.o mul.o # suggestion? $^

test: add_test sub_test mul_test clean
    ./add_test
    ./sub_test
    ./mul_test

add_test: add_test.o add.o
    $(CC) -o $@ $^

sub_test: sub_test.o sub.o
    $(CC) -o $@ $^

mul_test: mul_test.o mul.o
    $(CC) -o $@ $^

clean:
    $(RM) *.o

%.o: %.c %.h

Here's the observation so far.

*

*The pattern seems to be like adding a new target for each couple of
test and src files.

*Adding the .o object to the libMath both in the prerequisites and the command

*adding the test executable under test: target in the prerequisites and the command

While scaling up, Is it better this way or there could be better approaches?
P.S. I've removed CFLAGS line, it's working fine without it, helped me to clean up and reduce some clutter. is it ok? My IDE (clion) shows red wiggly lines if the path isn't right to .h files so I'm using full paths in the test files to include src files.
P.P.S It creates test executables on the root of the project, how to have all the binaries created in the bin folder and then delete all at the end of the project.

A: I would add a test target. That target would depend on all your test programs and should then execute the programs; you may want to add individual targets to execute the programs and just keep one master test target to make sure all of them are executed. Each test program would depend on the object files that are required for the test; if you're doing an addition test, let the addition test depend on the addition.o and add_test.o. Link them as you would always do and then execute them.
Example:
test: addition_test
   ./addition_test

addition_test: add_test.o add.o
    $(CC) -o $@ $^

Scaling tests
You can scale your tests by adding two rules and deleting most of the other rules, related to testing:
test: add_test_run sub_test_run

%_run: %
    ./$<

 %_test: %.o %_test.o
    $(CC) -o $@ $^

Should do everything you want. This allows running tests in parallel; you can avoid running tests that doesn't need to be run by creating a file at the end of each run, say: a log file that tells you the result of the test run.
This should do the trick:
test: add_test.log sub_test.log

%.log: %
    ./$^ > $@

 %_test: %.o %_test.o
    $(CC) -o $@ $^

You should use $(RM) instead of rm -rf in your clean target. $(RM) is platform independent while rm -rf only works on UNIXy platforms.

Take a North Yorkshire coastal campervan tour and you'll be in campervan heaven. Why? Well, North Yorkshire lays claim to one of the most beautiful coastlines in the country. What's more, this dramatic coastline is raw, breathtaking, and utterly captivating.
You'll be driving past pretty picturesque villages that cling precariously to the shoreline. And alongside brooding cliffs where villages spill right down to the edge of the sea.
The North Yorkshire Moors sprawl with heather moorland, pine forests, and rolling hills. And the North Yorkshire craggy coastlines are wild and elemental.
Other gems include historic York, Harrogate spa town, and stunning Scarborough.
Are you ready for this coastal campervan tour?
From the M1 and Leeds, York is a short hop-away. Explore the city's old cobbled streets, Gothic cathedral, famous railway museum, and vibrant city centre.
Then head into the dense green forests of the North York Moors National Park. A land of purple moorlands, frothy white rivers, and ancient woodlands.
If time is no object, base your campervan at one of the many North York Moors campsites and go exploring. Visit the Hole of Horcum a huge natural amphitheatre, and be transported to Harry Potter land on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway.
See stunning waterfalls, walk through glorious green valleys, and stop for lunch at one of the smallest pubs in the land, The Birch Hall Inn.
Arrive at the ancient port of Whitby and take in the view. Its picturesque townscape zig-zags down to the waterside through a maze of cottages with red roofs. The ruined Abbey sits high on the east cliff, and the curved arms of the twin piers draw the gaze out to sea. It's magical.
The town's car parks are bombarded in the summer months by visitors, motorhome and campervan lovers. So take time to consider where to park. Better still, make a base at one of the many coastal campsites around the town, and walk. Folly Gardens is within easy reach.
Climb the 199 steps up to the ancient Abbey and stand beneath its haunting whale bone arch.
Visit the Captain Cook Memorial Museum. And take a Whitby Dracula Walking Trail that follows in the footsteps of Bram Stoker. Goths descend on Whitby in April and October to continue this haunting legend.
Hungry? Try Scarborough woof – local name for the Atlantic wolf-fish – at the Star Inn The Harbour. And kippers at Fortunes Kippers where they've been smoking them for over 140 years.
There's no car access down into the old village of Robin Hood's Bay. So camp close by and reach this ancient smuggling village along the wonderful Cleveland Way National Trail past towering cliffs and old alum pits.
Wind down through the town's atmospheric alleys to the pretty harbour quayside, and admire the sweeping bay and soaring cliffs beyond.
Explore the trail of the 'Baytown' smugglers who took rum, silk and treasure through the village's hideaway alleys and secret tunnels. Trek to a real smuggler's cave along the shore at Boggle Hole, but be sure to check the tide times first!
Finally, head back to your campervan and drive up to Falling Foss woods. Park up, and walk a magical 2-mile circular trail to the Falling Foss waterfall. Enjoy tea and homemade cakes at the Falling Foss Tea Garden.
There are some exceptional camp sites in North Yorkshire. Some boast incredible views of the craggy coastline, some offer cosy campervan hideaways, and some are located amongst glorious green rolling meadow spaces.
There are touring caravan sites close by to Whitby too. And campsites in and around the North York Moors. Many are located on idyllic rural sites, some are family-run Farm campsites, and there's even one that is set in the grounds of an ancient Abbey.
We advise to plan ahead and book campsites well in advance of your North Yorkshire coast campervan tour.
Looking for more North Yorkshire campervan tour ideas?
Discover the village that fell into the sea at Runswick Bay. Wander along the beaches and look for fossils. Take the lovely coastal 'Cinder Track' walking trail along the disused Whitby to Scarborough Railway line past secluded coves and historic sites.
And stop a while at Scarborough. Wander around it's rugged castle ruins, enjoy donkey rides along the beach, and sing 'Are you going to Scarborough Fair?' to yourself as you browse the traditional local market.
Before heading for home, drive through 21 miles of breathtaking Yorkshire countryside from Whitby to picturesque village Hutton le Hole where sheep wander happily through the tiny streets.

Sacrilege (Hardcover)
By S.J. Parris
A gripping historical thriller set in sixteenth-century England and centered on the highly secretive cult of Saint Thomas Becket, the twelfth-century archbishop murdered in Canterbury Cathedral.
London, summer of 1584: Radical philosopher, ex-monk, and spy Giordano Bruno suspects he is being followed by an old enemy. He is shocked to discover that his pursuer is in fact Sophia Underhill, a young woman with whom he was once in love. When Bruno learns that Sophia has been accused of murdering her husband, a prominent magistrate in Canterbury, he agrees to do anything he can to help clear her name.
In the city that was once England's greatest center of pilgrimage, Bruno begins to uncover unsuspected secrets that point to the dead man being part of a larger and more dangerous plot in the making. He must turn his detective's eye on history—on Saint Thomas Becket, the twelfth-century archbishop murdered in Canterbury Cathedral, and on the legend surrounding the disappearance of his body—in order to solve the crime.
As Bruno's feelings for Sophia grow more intense, so does his fear that another murder is about to take place—perhaps his own. But more than Bruno's life is at stake in this vividly rendered, impeccably researched, and addictively page-turning whodunit—the stability of the kingdom hangs in the balance as Bruno hunts down a brutal murderer in the shadows of England's most ancient cathedral.

I attended an amazing Tech Breakfast Membership event this morning close to my residence in Northern Virginia, during which three panelists from local B2B technology companies shared the ROI gained and lessons realized by using social media to have interaction prospects and prospects online. Find tech companies by filtering for 'Know-how and Software program' on the map. Know-how firms have been below growing pressure from Western politicians to do more to sort out terrorist propaganda and recruitment on-line. Finest known for their wearable Myo armband, the company is targeted on growing gear and solutions that enable us to connect with the expertise of the long run.
He concluded his interrogation with an announcement with a message as clear as could be: Most Americans would anticipate American companies to be prepared to place the interests of our country above — not on par with — our adversaries." For Cotton, possible the subsequent director of the CIA, the worldwide however American-primarily based tech firms which are within the business of Hoovering up as a lot knowledge on users as possible — and then storing that information indefinitely and cataloguing it and analyzing it — are both for the United States or towards it. There can be no in-between.
The businesses, for his or her half, have recently been highlighting their progress in using synthetic intelligence and tools just like the shared hash database to identify and take away terrorist content quicker. Tech companies have plenty of leverage now over state governments and utilities which can be drooling" over the power use from information facilities as demand from different industries flatlines, stated Gary Cook dinner, a senior analyst at Greenpeace who specializes in info technology.
For girls of coloration, the cumulative effect of those slights is compounded by a placing lack of racial variety—and all that attends it.

US Fireworks can now ship all fireworks to Georgia! House Bill 110 legalized the sale of consumer fireworks in Georgia so US Fireworks can now ship all products found on our website to GA.
Governor Nathan Deal signed the bill legalizing the sale of fireworks in Georgia. The new Georgia Fireworks Law makes all fireworks legal. The bill was sponsored by Representative Jay Roberts, R-Ocilla. It looked like it was dead at the end of the legislative session. But Senator Tyler Harper, R-Ocilla, revived the bill and made several changes that satisfied opponents. The bill was then singed into law.
Maine jumps on the bandwagon!
Maine is the latest U.S. State to legalize fireworks in a trend that seems to be contagious lately. The list of states where fireworks are completely illegal is now very few, and dwindling. While it isn't yet clear as to exactly what will be allowed in Maine it seems they will model their regulations off of neighboring New Hampshires laws, allowing most approved consumer fireworks with a few exceptions such as rockets. As soon as we get clarification we will update this post. More than one retailer has already made public their plans to open several locations in the state bringing in tax revenues currently lost to New Hampshire…congratulations Maine!

Part 1 starts very strong with the song Enemy. Raw power and energy, served with catchy hooks and good melodies. Melodies are memorable throughout the songs, and it sure helps they use more vocalists. It really enhances their mix of punk rock, classic rock and a dash of psychedelica. Another smart thing is additional arrangements, be it sound clips, or keyboards. Take for instance track 4 S.O.S. The overall sound creates a haunting atmosphere in the verses but when the guitars kick in on the chorus, you are back on earth in seconds. Oh, and closing track Ramones can only be a tribute to…. right!
EP 2 starts with another belter, the aptly titled Rock City. Lyrics go a little crazy with Pornosluts and Puke & Boogie without losing momentum. And the other 2 songs Long Distance Lovesong and Mayhem's Trash (some Black Sabbath anyone?) are further testament to the talent in the band.
Energetic, powerful and experienced. You cannot go wrong with this music to start a party!


Marcel Chagnon has seen a lot of life in twenty-eight years. Mercury Records is very excited about this brand new singer-songwriter and his endearing odes of growing up, romantic angst and taking chances. Marcel has always had the hooks, the looks and the strong work ethic to compete, but it took him years to find a musical home to hang his hat in.
Marcel is too young to remember Bobby Orr's horizontal flight in front of Glenn Hall after that Cup-winning goal…but this erstwhile semipro hockey player has managed to tap into the very deep roots of his chosen musical genre, while keeping the discipline and humility he learned on the ice. "Tennessee," the second single and video from his critically praised Mercury Records debut, You, Me and the Windshield, traces his emotional cross-country pilgrimage, following in the footsteps of hundreds before him…with his guitar, his trusty Ford pickup, and an ever growing collection of photos and remembrances of the woman he left behind in LA. The song traces his Anabasis from the comfort of Pacific sunsets to the uncertainty of the cities, past the cacti of the desert and the hazards of the Interstate Highway System…and is a standing encouragement to one left behind to follow the trail he's boldly blazed. Like many great traveling songs, this one starts off simple and builds to a lush, multi-instrumental climax. "Tennessee" is kind of a Dave Loggins "Please Come to Boston" in reverse. Utilizing all the great savvy of the "working man aesthetic" he learned from Johnny Cash, Bruce Springsteen and other musical heroes, Marcel boosts an impressive ability to expunge his guts for public display, relying on clever word play, tight phrasing and an anthemic, accessible vibe.
Hip Video Promo is very honored to be working with Tom Lord at Mercury Records on this high profile music video campaign. Call Andy Gesner at 732-613-1779 or e-mailHIPVideo@aol.com to find out more about Marcel and how we can create excitement in your market about this deserving new artist. We are fully prepared to show you lots of love, including sending out autographed Marcel CDs, autographed Marcel keychains and cool Marcel guitar picks. Visit MarcelMusic.com to learn more about Marcel and as always, visit HIPVideoPromo.com to get the full scoop on the Marcel video promotion.
Marcel took a great leap of faith…and, sometimes, that's exactly what Life requires of us. With the video "Tennessee," he's reminded us of that seminal truth in a beautiful and visceral way.

SBD member companies Vaylia and Marshalls create strategic relationship
Two Secured by Design member companies, Vaylia Limited, integrated security experts, and Marshalls PLC, a protective landscaping industry business, have struck up an exciting strategic relationship.
Vaylia reached out to Marshalls earlier in the year looking to collaborate with them on their innovative RhinoGuard® GateKeeper® product, which is a crash-tested, hostile vehicle mitigation solution that allows roads and entrances to public areas to be temporarily blocked off whilst allowing the safe free flow of pedestrians.
Paul Painter, Chief Executive Officer, Vaylia Limited, said: "Once we identified GateKeeper® as a building block, we moved quickly to set up meetings with the Marshalls Landscape Protection team. We discussed our future vision and the development route that we planned to follow. The conversations were open and easy, Marshalls also shared their future ambitions with us. The collaboration has already created some significant product developments which will be released soon and are set to redefine temporary security overlay."
As a part of this new relationship, Vaylia will start to market a range of Marshalls Landscape Protection products including crash-tested street furniture and protective bollards.
Chris Plimley, Vaylia Chief Commercial Officer, said: "Paul and I have a direction of travel where we are looking to develop an innovative range of solutions for the high security temporary overlay environment. We have both been involved in major events where temporary overlay has been crucial to safety and security. We both quickly identified the GateKeeper® product as a great starting point that we could build a portfolio of products around."
Chris continued: "I have known some of the Marshalls team for many years and it was an easy conversation to have. GateKeeper® is successfully tested to IWA-14 Standards without the need for any ground pinning or wedging making this a truly temporary product. GateKeeper® is an exciting product that collectively we can develop further with the Marshalls Landscape Protection team and we have already made some exciting progress. Watch this space!"
Jaz Vilkhu, Managing Director, Marshalls Landscape Protective products, spoke about their relationship with Vaylia: "When we were approached by Vaylia we recognised an opportunity to collaborate with like-minded people who have a passion for Landscape Protection, an area in which we have specialised for a number of years.
"We recognised the strong synergy between their vision and ours, as well as a good cross over of complimentary products that would allow us to work together to create an all-encompassing product offer for our respective markets. We believe this relationship will go from strength to strength, creating further opportunities and product developments in the future."
Jaz continued: "The RhinoGuard® GateKeeper® is a product that we are very proud of, it offers crash tested, temporary protection without the need for anchorage and really is one of the most innovative temporary protection solutions on the market. Working with Vaylia to develop products around the GateKeeper® is not only a positive for me and my team but also the industry as a whole." Photo below shows GateKeeper® deployed in a shopping centre.
The government has outlined its support for pubs, cafes, restaurants and other businesses, and has made the process easier for pavement licencing and road closures to facilitate al-fresco dining and drinking. The current social distancing rules produce a knock-on effect in terms of the amount of covers a facility can provide per service.
By opening pavement licencing, operators can expand the number of covers that they can provide and still adhere to COVID-19 guidance, safe from the threat of miscreant Vehicle as a Weapon (VAW) attacks and accidental impacts.
Paul added: "Vaylia has some very interesting products coming to the marketplace with GateKeeper® being one of them. It isn't just about product development though. Vaylia has also created capacity to deploy and install not only temporary but also permanent solutions.
"We now work with industry leading, highly accredited, installation partners who have worked on everything from schools to nuclear establishments. We have spent time in the background putting together all the pieces and have already been able to bring innovative solutions to the market and deploy them on important infrastructure sites.
"Vaylia is currently engaged in developing the scope of works on a tranche of utility sites which will include several kilometres of high security fencing, gates, access control and possibly our newly launched VRDT – ECO, Vaylia's Hydrogen-powered CCTV system.
"A lot of work has gone on behind the scenes and our portfolio is steadily growing. Do please follow our social channels and keep watching for more announcements, and above all, in these difficult times, please stay safe," concluded Paul.
Both Vaylia and Marshalls are members of Secured by Design (SBD), the official police security initiative, which is the only way for companies to obtain police recognition for security-related products in the UK.
Alfie Hosker, SBD Technical Manager, said it is great two see two SBD member companies – Vaylia, a new member from the summer of 2020, and Marshalls, a long-standing member company – pooling their expertise to underline their commitment to create safer streets and safer places.
"The timing of this collaboration is especially significant in the light of recent terrorist attacks in continental Europe and the raising of the threat level in the UK. It also follows the recently updated and released National Counter Terrorism Security Office (NaCTSO) Crowded Places Guidance which highlights the need for hostile vehicle mitigation amongst other measures," said Alfie.
SBD is referenced six times in the Government's Crowded Places Guidance document, which was published on 2 November 2020. The Guidance seeks to advise the security sector and business owners on how to make it harder for terrorists to plan and carry out attacks.

Q: solution verification for evaluating $\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{2}}{|\frac{1}{2}-\sin^2x|}$ I have to evaluate
$$I = \int_0^{\frac{\pi}{2}}{|\frac{1}{2}-\sin^2x|\mathrm dx}$$
What I've got:
$$\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{2}}{\left|\frac{1}{2}-\sin^2x\right|\mathrm dx}=\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{2}}{\left|\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1-\cos2x}{2}\right|\mathrm dx}=\frac{1}{4}\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{2}}{\left|\cos2x\right|\mathrm d(2x)}$$
The $\cos x$ is positive from $0$ to $\frac{\pi}{2}$ so I guess taking the absolute value is the same as just taking the value.
$$I=\frac{1}{4}\int_0^{\frac{\pi}{2}}{\cos2x\,\mathrm d(2x)}=\frac{1}{4}(\sin{\pi}-\sin{0})+C=C-\frac{1}{4}$$
Is this correct? Thanks in advance!

A: $$\int_0^{\pi/2}|\cos2x|dx=\int_0^{\pi/4}\cos2x\ dx+\int_{{\pi/4}}^{\pi/2}(-\cos2x)\ dx$$
As $\cos2x\le0$ for $\dfrac\pi2\le2x\le\pi$

Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I'm (Not) Yours: How a Lapse in Record Keeping Can Lead to Non-Binding Contracts
August 29, 2019 Contracts
By: Lori Smith and Gwenn Barney
Usually, once a contract is signed, sealed and delivered, it is a binding agreement between the parties. However, a recent Delaware case serves as a reminder that a murky path to a signed agreement and lack of good record-keeping can lead to a finding of non-enforceable contracts.
In Kotler v. Shipman Associates, LLC, C.A. No. 2017-0457-JRC (Del. Ch. Aug. 21, 2019), Stacey Kotler (Kotler) was an independent contractor engaged as a salesperson for Shipman Associates, LLC—then known as Shipman Associates, Inc. (the Company). Ms. Kotler was successful at growing the business and decided to seek equity in the Company, in addition to her agreed-upon sales commissions. The Company eventually proposed to grant her a warrant to purchase shares, rather than an outright grant of equity. Over the course of several months, the parties exchanged drafts of a warrant agreement which would allow Kotler to purchase equity in the company upon certain triggering events.
In negotiating the warrant agreement, a major sticking point for both parties was the non-compete and non-solicitation terms, with the Company demanding a perpetual non-compete and non-solicitation and Kotler countering with less restrictive versions of these terms. Throughout this process, the records of the negotiations were done with extreme patchwork; there was no email record of the negotiations or any notes to fall back on. Even Kotler herself could not recall the name of the attorney who had represented her in the negotiations (and that attorney had never actually directly interacted with the Company, or their counsel White and Case LLP). The court noted that the Company's record retention was "at best, careless." The only evidence provided to the court of the negotiations, ten years after they took place, were numerous drafts of the warrant agreement, including a draft provided by Kotler with "wet signatures" from all parties and testimony of the parties involved. Although, both parties believed they had signed an agreement in 2007, because of the manner in which the drafts and signature pages were exchanged, the parties had differing understandings and recollections of what had actually been agreed upon.
Kotler subsequently left the Company to start a business that competed with the Company. When the Company learned of her competing business, it assumed that the warrant was void. However, in 2013, when the Company was considering a sale that would trigger exercise of the warrant, the Company realized that the signed warrant agreement contained changes made by Kotler that had never been seen or approved by the Company. At some point in the exchange of drafts, and after the Company had provided what it thought was the execution copy, she had sent either a revised agreement or just a signature page to the CEO of the Company (by mail, and not electronically) for counter-signature with a return envelope. The CEO signed the signature page and returned it using the return envelope supplied by Kotler. According to her testimony, the CEO did not retain a copy of what she signed, as it had not yet been countersigned by Kotler. However, subsequent to that date, Kotler had a conversation with the Company's President in which they agreed to change the number of shares subject to the warrant, and Kotler attached the signature page to a later draft that she created, not only including that change, but also eliminating the post-termination non-compete.
When the Company launched a sale process in 2016, it hired a consultant to help prepare the company for sale. The consultant could only find a partially signed version of the agreement in the Company's files. That version of the agreement contained the higher share number and the post-termination non-compete. The consultant suggested that the Company resolve the warrant matter so that it would not be an issue in any sale. Thereafter, the Company hired an attorney to reach out to Kotler to see if she had a fully signed version. At that point, Kotler produced her fully signed version of the warrant with her changes. A dispute ensued over which version had been agreed to and Kotler filed suit.
To form an enforceable contract, it is well-settled law that there must be a "meeting of the minds" on all essential terms. The court determined the plaintiff, Kotler, had not provided sufficient evidence to prove that the version the Company signed was the version to which they had agreed. There was a lack of evidence that Kotler had made clear to the Company that the version she sent them for signing contained revisions that were favorable to her, including effectively nullifying the non-compete and non-solicitation clauses. As the court stated in its analysis, "even if a purported agreement is executed by both parties, when the parties' 'understandings of [a contractual] prohibition or permission are incompatible,' and where the plaintiff 'offered no further evidence indicating' a meeting of the minds, 'no enforceable agreement [is] created,'" (Kotler at 43, citing Eagle Force Hldgs., LLC v. Campbell, 187 A.3d 1209, 1230 (Del. 2018)).
The important lesson from this case is to be careful in record-keeping, tracking of drafts and using stand-alone signature pages. The lack of any record trail, or "hard evidence," in this case (other than the various drafts) made it difficult to find clear evidence of a meeting of the minds. More particularly, parties often separate signature pages and the signing process from the finalization of the actual transaction documents. This is often done for expediency to make sure that signature pages can be collected prior to actual finalization of the definitive documents in order to facilitate timely exchange, especially when multiple signatories are involved and may be traveling or located in separate locations. Although this has become common practice, parties to transactions should be mindful of keeping a clear record of negotiations and exchange of documents and ensure that all parties agree on the same version of the document to which signature pages are being attached. Always proofread and confirm that final draft before signing or affixing signature pages and always confirm that the signature page matches up to the document (version, date and other details) and that all counterpart signature pages are identical, as any inconsistent facts could raise red flags. Nowadays when electronic signing and exchange is more commonplace, this should be easier to control but still requires diligence and attention to detail.

We all live barely aware of the excellences in our selves and the splendors in our life world. We know these are there – even beautiful things, wonderful things – but we are busy, busy, and have little time to be aware of them.
This is what makes the closeness of another such a mysteriously powerful experience. For when another person shows interest in us and goes beyond that to appreciation and fondness, we are drawn to them, like a mirror to light. The one who loves us shows us in some mysterious way what is good, excellent, and even beautiful in ourselves. We see that mirrored in their eyes. We can resist the attraction, but it takes great selfishness and a lot of energy – so why do it?
This closeness is one of the splendors of the Mass. Jesus lived among us a long while back, was murdered, rose again – and then ascended into heaven while His friends watched. But as He had promised all along, He said he would be with us all days.
Well, He is. He is close to us. All the time, of course, in His own Spirit whom He has sent from the Father into and among us. But He goes further – and this is what "receiving Communion" means. Jesus comes close to each one of us because He appreciates with infinite insight and infinite fondness the splendors in each of us, the values in our selves.
He doesn't much care that you show up at the Wedding Banquet of the Lamb dressed in sinners' slops. Get some of the new wine that He made and a piece of the wedding cake. And join that noisy group of saints over there. The Body of Christ. Amen.

Q: List of all upper configs Is there any way to retrieve all upper configs which influence on my web-application config?

A: Probably only using search of files under your application directory. But it brings only .config files which is included in the project. Probably it's no way to get global web.config and machine.config because of security reasons.


Today we want to look at Irresistible Grace which is the doctrine that, no matter what, you don't have the free will to choose Christ. Instead, when it is "your time" God hits you with his grace and you can't resist getting saved. Calvinists believe that you are actually born again before you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ since, in total depravity, you could not believe on the Lord Jesus Christ unless you were saved.
Israel resisted the Holy Spirit – Acts 7:51 – "Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye." Israel is God's elect [Is 45:4] and yet Stephen said that the Jews to whom he was preaching and their fathers before them resisted the Holy Ghost. Then God's grace to save them is certainly not irresistible. As his elect, Israel should have most definitely responded affirmatively to Stephen's preaching. Instead, they stoned him to death.
Jerusalem resisted the Lord – Matt 23:37 – "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!" Here the Lord reveals that HIS WILL was to gather Jerusalem's children and THEY WOULD NOT. There is no question that they resisted and they resisted OFTEN.
The Jews [God's chosen people] would not come to Jesus – John 5:40 – "And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life." Notice that Jesus said the reason that the Jews to whom he was preaching, whom he was encouraging to believe the witnesses to himself [Jn 5:32-39], would not come to him is that it was not their will. As John said in Jn 1:11, "He came unto his own, and his own received him not." He was willing but they weren't.
Grace is not irresistible. You choose based on your own free will.
Rebekah, a type of the church, chose to go to Isaac, a type of Christ – Gen 24:58 – "And they called Rebekah, and said unto her, Wilt thou go with this man? And she said, I will go." The choice to go with Eleazar was Rebekah's. The servant approached her in the same way that God approaches us. He is not willing that any should perish, but if you don't come to repentance and receive Jesus Christ you will perish.
"Whosoever will" takes the water of life – Rev 22:17 – "And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely." God doesn't force the gospel on anyone. It is made available to everyone. And whosoever will can take the water of life freely. "Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved," [Rom 10:13].
The Jews who returned to Jerusalem went up of their own free will – Ezra 7:13 – "I make a decree, that all they of the people of Israel, and of his priests and Levites, in my realm, which are minded of their own freewill to go up to Jerusalem, go with thee." Artaxerxes didn't force the Jews in captivity to return to Jerusalem any more than God forces a man to get saved by irresistible grace. He makes grace available to all through the shed blood of Jesus Christ and you either believe him or you don't. It's that simple.
Conclusion: the doctrine of irresistible grace is a doctrine created by man. It is not a Bible doctrine, though men use the Bible to "prove" it. You would never come to this doctrine by reading and studying the Bible on your own. Men are the ones who teach you to believe this doctrine, not God.

The Many Faces of Josephine Baker
by Peggy Caravantes
A complete biographical look at the complex life of a world-famous entertainer. With determination and audacity, Josephine Baker turned her comic and musical abilities into becoming a worldwide icon of the Jazz Age. The Many Faces of Josephine Baker: Dancer, Singer, Activist, Spy provides the first in-depth portrait of this remarkable woman for young adults. Author Peggy Caravantes follows Baker's life from her childhood in the depths of poverty to her comedic rise in vaudeville and fame in Europe.

The Daily Northwestern Apologizes to Student Protesters for Reporting
Editors at Northwestern University's campus newspaper apologized on Sunday for its coverage of student demonstrators, which they said was invasive and "hurt students," spurring a swift backlash from professional journalists and a broader reckoning over reporting practices and diversity in newsrooms.
The publication, The Daily Northwestern, covers both the university and the surrounding community in Evanston, Ill. The apology addressed the paper's coverage of an event that featured former Attorney General Jeff Sessions as a speaker last Tuesday and was attended by scores of protesters.
It said that the editors were sorry that photographs of some protesters had been shared by reporters on social media. It also said that reporters' efforts to contact students for interviews using Northwestern's directory had been "an invasion of privacy."
"Ultimately, The Daily failed to consider our impact in our reporting surrounding Jeff Sessions," the column said. "We know we hurt students that night, especially those who identify with marginalized groups."
The piece was signed by Troy Closson, the paper's editor in chief and a student at the university's Medill School of Journalism, and seven other editors. (The Daily operates independently of Northwestern and Medill.)
The column sparked immediate criticism, much of it from journalists on social media who argued that taking photographs of people in public places and reaching out to ask for interviews is part of the job.
"Being a journalist requires empathy, but this ain't it," Gregory Platt of The Chicago Tribune wrote on Twitter on Monday.
"How is it possible that a newspaper at what is allegedly a top journalism school would apologize for the basics of reporting?" Glenn Kessler, a columnist with The Washington Post, said in a tweet on Monday. "This is a travesty and an embarrassment."
But some wrote in defense of the editors at The Daily.
"I'm more shocked at how angry folks seem to be, because while I wouldn't have made that choice, I don't think it's wild to think about how reporting can impact the people we write about and how to mitigate it," Tracie Hunte, a reporter for "Radiolab," the documentary podcast from WNYC, wrote in a tweet on Monday. "They're trying something and maybe it didn't work! It's fine!"
"One of only black students in history to hold his position," Wesley Lowery, a journalist with The Washington Post, wrote on Twitter on Tuesday, referring to Mr. Closson. "Student journalist who makes incorrect decision based on sincere desire to not harm marginalized campus group is publicly decried by industry's most powerful (white) journalists. Definitely a lesson to be learned here!"
On Monday, Mr. Closson addressed the criticism. In a series of tweets, he said he appreciated people's worries and added: "We aren't unclear about our rights as a newspaper to cover student protest, but also understand the need to do so with empathy."
Mr. Closson noted that he was navigating his role as one of only a few black editors in chief in The Daily's more than 135 years.
"Being in this role and balancing our coverage and the role of this paper on campus with my racial identity — and knowing how our paper has historically failed students of color, and particularly black students, has been incredibly challenging to navigate," he wrote.
"And our statement and the areas it fell short were largely a result of that — of how challenging it can be for marginalized students to navigate situations like those this past week while balancing our identities, roles as student journalists and positions as students at NU."
The event last week featuring Mr. Sessions was hosted by the Northwestern University College Republicans. Meant to focus on "the real meaning of the 'Trump agenda,'" it was free and open to the public.
Two days after his speech at Northwestern, Mr. Sessions, a Republican, formally announced that he was entering the Senate race in Alabama. He emphasized his loyalty to President Trump, who forced him from office a year ago after Mr. Sessions recused himself from overseeing the Justice Department's investigation into whether Mr. Trump and his associates worked illegally with Russians to interfere in the 2016 election.
President Trump has made fighting political correctness and pushing boundaries central to his identity. The issue of free speech on college campuses has become a rallying cry to some of his supporters, including many young conservative activists, who point to instances around the country in which conservative viewpoints — and appearances by conservative speakers — have been shunned or protested by liberal students and professors.
In 2018, during Mr. Sessions's contentious 21-month tenure at the Justice Department, he announced the administration's so-called zero-tolerance policy, which led to thousands of family separations along the United States' border with Mexico.
In an article Wednesday about Mr. Sessions's speech, The Daily reported that it was interrupted multiple times by demonstrators who pounded on the door of the auditorium where Mr. Sessions was speaking and recited phrases including: "You are a racist; you put kids in cages."
Another article on Wednesday focused on the protests spurred by the event. It mentioned that university police officers had blocked protesters from entering the venue, and it quoted demonstrators, including a protester who said, "There's a difference between having a sustained dialogue and listening to other opinions and accepting hate speech and fascism."
On Friday, The Daily reported, Morton O. Schapiro, the president of the university, said that unlike some institutions, Northwestern does not grant amnesty to student protesters. "You can protest, you can't hurt anybody and you can't shut down speech," he said. "And if you do, you're going to face the consequences."
He also questioned whether it had been a good idea to invite Mr. Sessions instead of a different conservative speaker, adding that the episode had been "polarizing."

Subwoofer hums under power not hooked to system & hooked up?
I would check the caps on the power supply. They are rather large electrolytic capacitors that will look like they burst and/or leaking. When these die, the caps ground and the sub will make a loud buzzing sound. If you are handy with a soldering iron you can replace them yourself. Replace them with the same voltage or a little bigger and same with the size.
If the cap. says 16v 4700pF on it, for example, a 20v 5300pF or a 16v 6200mF cap. will work for this application.
Why does my HTS-20 powered subwoofer make a low hum when plugged in, even turned off and not connected to the receiver and a louder hum when the subwoofer power is turned on?
I suspect the amplifier is damaged. This is not an easy repair to do unless you are well versed in audio electronics. I would recommend a repair shop to look at the subwoofer amplifier.
The issue a floating ground that causes the hum you are talking about. What are you connecting it to that causes the hum?
After a power outage I have a loud hum.
Hi, The Ground Rules Of all the annoyances that can afflict any audio/video home theater or even a simple stereo installation, the notorious "ground loop" may well be the most difficult and persistent one to track down and eliminate. A "ground loop" is caused by the difference in electrical potential at different grounding points in an audio/video system. (All the grounds in an A/V system should ideally be at "0" potential.) A ground loop typically adds a loud low-frequency hum or buzz as soon as you plug in any of various audio or video components, including subwoofers, cable-TV outboard boxes, satellite-TV feeds, TV displays, amplifiers, A/V receivers or turntables. The buzz/hum is a byproduct of the multiple power supply cables and a ground voltage differential within your system and its network of interconnecting cables.
If you get your system up and running and hear an audible buzz or hum, the first culprit to look at is either the powered subwoofer or your cable-TV or satellite-box feed at the entry point to your system.
First, the subwoofer: unplug the coaxial cable that connects to your powered subwoofer to see if the ground-loop hum disappears. If it does, it's likely coming in through your cable/satellite TV feed.
Reconnect your subwoofer's coaxial cable from the subwoofer input to your receiver's subwoofer output and disconnect the cable-TV feed (or satellite feed) from your outboard set-top cable box or satellite tuner. Be sure and disconnect the cable before any splitters. Now see if the hum/buzz from your subwoofer stops.
If that eliminates the hum, you can install one of these inexpensive in-line ground isolators from Parts Express or Bass Home. Note that these transformer-based ground isolators will work fine with analog cable-TV feeds, but depending on their design they may interfere with or block reception of HDTV signals via a digital cable or satellite dish feed.
Install the ground isolator between the cable-TV feed and the input of your outboard cable-TV box or satellite tuner (or the TV display's antenna or cable input if you have a set with a built-in TV tuner or a cable-card ready set). In many cases, the ground isolator will "break" the loop and remove the annoying hum or buzz by isolating the TV-cable ground.
If a hum remains with the TV cable completely disconnected from your system, or you don't want to risk degrading reception of HD signals from a cable or satellite system, then you may have to add a ground isolator like this Radio Shack Model 270-054 between the line-level coaxial subwoofer cable from your A/V receiver and the line-level input jack on your powered subwoofer.
In all cases, if your subwoofer has a ground-lift screw like some of Axiom's subwoofers, try first removing the screw (or replacing it) to see if it increases or eliminates the hum. It may or may not make a difference.
Try plugging the subwoofer into a different AC outlet in the room, one that isn't supplying power to your components (A/V receiver, TV, cable box, etc.). That might fix it.
Try reversing the AC plug for your A/V receiver or the powered subwoofer. If it's a 3-wire plug or a polarized plug, which has one prong wider than the other, you won't be able to reverse the plug. For safety, do not use a "cheater plug" to bypass the 3-wire plug.
With the power OFF, reverse the AC plugs one by one of any other components that have a standard 2-prong AC plug that isn't polarized. Each time you reverse a plug, turn on the system with the attached component and your subwoofer and see if the hum disappears. In some cases, reversing one or more plugs will eliminate the hum.
If you have a turntable, try connecting a separate ground wire to a chassis screw on your preamp or receiver and see if the hum disappears. If you already have a turntable ground wire, try removing it from the preamp. One or the other may eliminate the hum.
Finally, here is another solution that worked well for a member of our message boards who decided to discard his ground-loop isolator on his subwoofer: "I took off the ground-loop isolator I'd been using and connected a plain 14-gauge wire to chassis screws on the sub and the receiver then powered everything on. Although hum was still there, it was far lower than before. Next I unscrewed the ground-loop screw on the back of the sub and that took care of the hum completely."
Almost certainly sounds like an earth loop to me, but can be caused by a poorly made transformer or phase shifts on the mains supply. Visit some power conditioner web-sites like Isotek or Isol-8 (or google "earth loop") where there's plenty of advice on how to reduce/eliminate earth loops and other causes of mains-induced hum (transformer problems etc).
Hum on the speakers usually indicates that there is a DC voltage on the speaker line. DC voltage on the output lines would be caused by a shorted output transistor.
HI, I have the same problem with a MINX subwoofer, can any one help.
Humming noise when amp is powered on.
check the heatsink, touch it with your finger feel it ,if you can hold it with in 15 sec, then your power amp. component might be working if not then probably you Power Amplifier IC or transistor is shorted.
If you have cables hooked up and have not installed them to the components when turned on the speaker will hum.
If your electrical outlet is not grounded properly you speaker will hum.
Personally I'd take it back and get a new one. if you just purchased it.
If this happens again try a grounded curcit first then go from there.
This can be caused due to an increase in local interference. The hum is decreased when you plug in the satellites because the interference is spread over a longer area. You may notice that speakers tend to hum around things like cell phones and power outlets. To see if this is the case, move the speakers to another part of the room if you can, slide the desk around, plug the computer in at another room, something like this. If the hum gets louder or quieter, it is interference at your new place. This can be solved by finding a new area to set up your computer stuff at. Since it's mostly the subwoofer, try elevating it off the ground, there may be a power main running under the floor.
I took my SoundSticks dome apart and there must have been screws holding the rubber feet on; they are now lost. What kind of screws do I need to buy to replace them and put the rubber feet back on? I would be so grateful for your help!

His Majesty King Mohammed VI, accompanied by HRH Prince Moulay Rachid, chaired, Saturday afternoon at the Royal Palace of Marrakech, the closing session of the 20th meeting of Al-Quds Committee in the presence of President of the State of Palestine, Mahmoud Abbas.
At this occasion, HM the King gave a speech in which he committed to pursue all his efforts to support the steadfast struggle of the Palestinian people and to push forward the peace process, whose key element is a fair settlement of the issue of Al Quds al-Sharif.
The Monarch also stressed his deep commitment to the identity of Al-Quds. "In fact, we want Al-Quds to remain what it has always been: a rallying symbol of the monotheistic religions and a haven of coexistence between its inhabitants, in an environment of peace and harmony" said the King.
For his part, President Mahmoud Abbas expressed his high regard to His Majesty King Mohammed VI for his continuous support to the Palestinian cause and the tireless efforts of the Sovereign in favor of Al-Quds.
The U.S. government also hailed the commitment of HM King Mohammed VI to the protection of the religious and civilizational heritage of the holy city of Al-Quds. "We appreciate the commitment of His Majesty the King to preserving the religious and cultural heritage of the city of Al-Quds," said Rashad Hussain, Special Envoy of the United States to the organization of Islamic Cooperation, in a speech at an interactive session between the Committee members and the international guests invited.
The United States attaches great importance to the future of the holy city, added the US diplomat , recalling the commitment of President Barack Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry to a final settlement of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on the basis of principle of two states living together in peace and security.
During the same session , the Special Envoy of the United Kingdom for the peace process in the Middle East, Sir Vincent Fean, welcomed the model of tolerance that has always prevailed in Morocco between the three monotheistic religions. "Morocco, under the leadership of HM King Mohammed VI, enjoys a climate of tolerance and coexistence that has always prevailed in Morocco between the three monotheistic religions," said the British diplomat.
The Organization of the United Nations also paid a tribute to HM King Mohammed VI for his commitment to the holy city. "I welcome the commitment of His Majesty King Mohammed VI to the holy city," said Robert Serry, Special Coordinator for the UN peace process in the Middle East .
The closing session was also marked by the reading of the Final declaration, issued by morocco's Foreign Minister, Salaheddine Mezouar.
In a statement to the press, The Secretary General of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), Mr. Iyad Madani, welcomed all the recommendations issued which according to him, illustrate a common desire to urge the international community to act to end Israeli attempts to change the legal status of the holy city."

Q: In D3, how can I receive current X,Y coordinates of an element while a transition is running? Based on this answer, how can I get a live stream of the circle's X & Y coordinates while the transition is occurring?

A: You could use the standard MutationObserver interface to listen for changes to the DOM. The MutationObserver constructor is provided a callback which will be called with an array of MutationRecords containing detailed information about the changes which occured. After creating an observer instance you can register it to changes to a particular node, e.g. your circle, and filter the attribute changes you are interested in, say cx and cy, by providing this configuration to the call to .observe() which will start the listener.
// Create a new MutationObserver.
// This one just logs changes to attributes.
var observer = new MutationObserver(function(mutations) {
  mutations.forEach(function(m) {
    console.log(
      m.attributeName +
      " -- old:" + m.oldValue +
      ", new: " + m.target.getAttribute(m.attributeName));
  });
});

// Start observing the circle node and listen for changes to attributes cx and cy
// while recording old values.
var config = {
  attributes: true,
  attributeOldValue: true,
  attributeFilter: ["cx","cy"]
};

observer.observe(circle.node(), config);

Given the JSFiddle you linked to, a working example might look like this:

var svg = d3.select("body")
    .append("svg")
    .attr("width", 200)
    .attr("height", 200);

var circle = svg.append("circle")
 .attr("id", "circ")
    .attr("cx", Math.random() * 200)
    .attr("cy", Math.random() * 200)
    .attr("r", 10 + "px")
    .transition().each("end", function () {
      myTransf();
  });

var d = d3.select("div");
function myTransf() {
    d3.select("#circ").transition().duration(500)
        .attr("cx", Math.random() * 200) // change this to random 2px
     .attr("cy", Math.random() * 200) // change this to random 2px
        .each("end", function () {
        myTransf();
    });
}

// Create a new MutationObserver.
// This one just logs changes to attributes.
var observer = new MutationObserver(function(mutations) {
  mutations.forEach(function(m) {
    console.log(
      m.attributeName +
      " -- old:" + m.oldValue +
      ", new: " + m.target.getAttribute(m.attributeName));
  });
});

// Start observing the circle node and listen for changes to attributes cx and cy
// while recording old values.
var config = {
  attributes: true,
  attributeOldValue: true,
  attributeFilter: ["cx","cy"]
};

observer.observe(circle.node(), config);

// Stop observing once you are done
setTimeout(function() {
  observer.disconnect();
}, 5000);
<script src="http://d3js.org/d3.v3.js"></script>

If you need to support IE <11, though, you are out of luck and need to resort to some other solution like the one proposed by Mark.

A: You'd have to take control of the transition and write a custom tween function.  This way you control each animation step.  Here's some runnable code replacing the attrTween magic in your example with a custom tween.

var svg = d3.select("body")
    .append("svg")
    .attr("width", 200)
    .attr("height", 200);

var circle = svg.append("circle")
  .attr("id", "circ")
    .attr("cx", Math.random() * 200)
    .attr("cy", Math.random() * 200)
    .attr("r", 10 + "px");

myTransf();

function myTransf() {
    circle.transition()
     .duration(500)
      .each("end", function () {
          myTransf();
      })
      .tween("move", function() {
        var self = d3.select(this),
            x = d3.interpolate(+self.attr('cx'), Math.random() * 200),
            y = d3.interpolate(+self.attr('cy'), Math.random() * 200);
        return function(t) {
          var cx = x(t),
              cy = y(t);
          self.attr("cx", cx);
          self.attr("cy", cy);
        };
      });
}
svg {
    border:1px solid #ccc;
}
