The Lincoln Navigator Is the Best New Vehicle of 2018
After 20 years, Lincoln's signature SUV gets a complete, class-leading redesign.
By Nick Caruso
Numbers have always been a huge part of automobile culture. Read any review or brochure, or simply talk to a proud owner, and you'll be inundated with them. How fast, how quick, how far, how big, how light, how loud, how low, how expensive — stats are everything. The all-new 2018 Lincoln Navigator will please numbers aficionados with a spec sheet thoroughly riddled with impressive stuff. From the number of directions in which its seats can adjust to the horsepower output from its relatively small engine to the size of its wheels, the Navigator contains a wealth of outsized specs excessive enough to send the most avid of numbers junkies into a frenzy. None of the Navigator's numbers, however, is more impressive than 20: the number of years it took the Navigator to completely reinvent itself.
When it debuted in 1998, the original Navigator was somewhat of a revelation, beating Cadillac's Escalade to the modern, American-made luxury-SUV front by a year. For all its leather and late-Nineties bling, the big SUV also featured premium performance and an adequately premium price tag. For around $43,000, or about $67,000 in today's money, customers got seven-passenger, V8-powered transportation that could tow like a big truck and impress at the country club. Few vehicles have truly captured their moment in time like the original Navigator did, and now, 20 years later, this latest generation has done it all over again. The new SUV is aggressively progressive in most every way — apropos for a vehicle debuting at the height of the Information Age. At a time trends come and go in what can seem like moments, Lincoln has positioned the Navigator to stay ahead of the curve in ways that will still feel revolutionary years down the road.
The full-size Navigator is still basically a ladder-frame truck with prodigious features, but, eschewing a traditional, macho V8, Lincoln has fitted the new Navigator with Ford's 450-horsepower twin-turbo V6, which cranks 510 lb-ft of torque (it's also found in the Ford F-150 Raptor). A 10-speed transmission keeps that power in check and doles it out seamlessly. Its aluminum-alloy body shaves off a couple hundred pounds compared to a steel equivalent and makes, well, navigating an effortless task; despite weighing a massive 6,000 pounds, the Navigator moves with grace that usually only vehicles half its size can claim.
In terms of its competition though, Lincoln, in general, still has a long way to go in distancing itself from its bloaty, Town Car image of yore. The Navigator truly competes with — and in many cases surpasses — many rivals in the premium space. Most notably, It's poised as a fresher competitor to the aforementioned Escalade, which though relatively outdated, will always be its main contemporary. But in terms of its modern take on style and luxury, the Navigator also handily competes with far more upscale luxury options like the Bentley Bentayga — a vehicle that starts some $60,000 higher than the most expensive, fully optioned Black Label Navigator.
Black Label products sit at the top end of the Lincoln model lineup, and are made available in pre-curated "themes" that convey high-taste combinations of texture and color. Opt for a Black Label long-wheelbase Navigator with four-wheel drive and all the fixin's and witness another extreme number: this SUV can be optioned to over $100,000. Impressively, Lincoln backs up that price tag with a complete experience that's difficult to see as anything but worth the cost of admission. The drab, droopy quarters of the original Navigator are completely gone in favor of an airy, pleasing cabin with truly comfortable seating for up to eight. Beyond that, the vehicle is replete with charging ports, entertainment systems and technology like head-up displays and customizable digital gauge clusters. The wood veneers that cover the main surfaces in each vehicle are largely sourced from a single tree, meaning the grains match perfectly throughout the cabin. Richly colored, sensual textures abound, resulting in a driving experience that is almost eerily relaxing.
On the outside, the new Navigator strikes a well-proportioned balance between outrageously sized components and outright bulk: for every 22-inch wheel or 9-inch-tall grille emblem, there is another inch of overall height or length to compensate visually. And yet the final product is a titanic vehicle that doesn't look ridiculous or comical, but rather stately: a large but smooth figure that avoids being distasteful or aggressively monolithic.
And so Lincoln has uncovered a winning formula. The numbers — 20 years, 6,000 pounds, $100,000, et al. — deliver a strong statement, but where the company has struck gold is in the philosophy behind the new Navigator. There is nothing in this SUV that indicates the brand is being precious or careful; instead, the Navigator is the manifestation of progress inside and out.

Operation Encouragement should be at full speed! Did you remember to write your note of encouragement to someone this week? It is not too late! Make your day--and someone else's!
This week's operation encouragement suggestion: write a note to the elders that specifically names something you genuinely appreciate about this congregation. Could you send your note to the church's address so that all of the elders could read it? It will be wonderful for our elders to receive a few hundred such notes this week! Without hesitation, we tell them what disturbs us. Have you ever told them what you appreciate? This week is the perfect opportunity!
Sam Roberts was recently asked, "Where are we going as a congregation?" An excellent question that is deserving of a carefully considered, well thought out answer. My "off-the-cuff" response for the immediate future focused on three goals: meaningfully development in spirituality and Christ-likeness as a congregation; developing our community outreach in ways that keep pace with and support our missions outreach; providing this congregation with the tools (facilities) that will enable us to advance fellowship and nurturing among our members. For me, all of this is in addition to (not in replacement of) the wonderful things already happening at West-Ark.
I so appreciate the job our greeters are doing! They are here early (they beat me to the building!). I don't think anyone can enter the main building without receiving several genuine welcomes. Last Sunday Bob and Sharon Faries were among the greeters. Bob said, "Greeting is a wonderful job! It makes you aware of all the great people we have here." He told me how much he and Sharon enjoyed it, and how much fun it was. He observed that you cannot see and talk to that many people unless you are a greeter, and he thoroughly enjoyed the experience. To all of you greeters, thanks! You make a difference!

La serie è composta da quattro volumi, di cui solo il primo è intitolato Toshokan sensō; i successivi sono denominati rispettivamente Toshokan nairan,Toshokan kiki, eToshokan kakumei. I romanzi sono stati pubblicati da ASCII Media Works tra febbraio del 2006 e novembre del 2007. Successivamente è avvenuta anche la pubblicazione, sempre da parte della ASCII Media Works di una spin-off della serie intitolata . Ad aprile 2008, i quattro volumi originali e la serie dello spin-off hanno venduto in Giappone oltre  copie.

Il 24 settembre 2007 il magazine LaLa pubblicato dalla Hakusensha iniziò la serializzazione del manga adattato da Kiiro Yumi, successivamente sempre nello stesso anno avvenne un altro adattamento manga da parte di Yayoi Furudorinel magazine Dengeki Daioh pubblicato da ASCII Media Works.

L'anno successivo la Production I.G iniziò a trasmettere sulla Fuji TV di Noitamina un adattamento anime composto da 12 episodi, più uno presente soltanto nel DVD della serie.

Nel giugno 2011 è stata annunciata la produzione di un film basato sulla serie. Quest'ultimo, intitolato Toshokan sensō: Kakumei no tsubasa, è uscito nelle sale nipponiche il 16 giugno 2012.

Trama
In un futuro non troppo lontano, l'esplosione di informazioni e di disinformazione è venuto per essere considerato una minaccia diretta per la società. Viene così a crearsi una nuova agenzia del governo dedicata esclusivamente alla gestione e alla censura delle informazioni. Nel 2019 Anno 31, il governo monitora e controlla ogni fonte di informazione e cultura, eliminando tutto ciò che ritiene "pericoloso" per lo stato e gli organi che lo compongono, ma contro questi abusi di potere vi sono le biblioteche, e i loro agenti speciali.

Toshokan Senso segue la vita di Iku Kasahara, una ragazza divenuta una nuova recluta nella biblioteca del Kantō. Lei decide di entrare a far parte del corpo della difesa delle biblioteche dopo l'incontro con un membro di alto rango del corpo della difesa che la salvò quando la censura stava prendendo un libro che lei desiderava da tempo. Dopo l'adesione, tuttavia, si rende conto che far parte del corpo della difesa richiede molto impegno. In diverse occasioni, Kasahara mostra di essere imprudente e immatura. Nonostante questi problemi, Kasahara viene arruolata nella Task Force, un gruppo di élite di soldati che passano attraverso una formazione rigorosa al fine di prepararsi alle operazioni difficili. Insieme a Kasahara, entra a far parte della Task Force un'altra nuova recluta di nome Hikaru Tezuka molto più capace di Kasahara. Kasahara cercherà sempre di migliorarsi e si troverà in situazioni sempre più difficili, tutto questo solo per salvare i libri che ha giurato di proteggere.

Jabari Parker: My First Year
by Jabari Parker, Jeff Benedict
Duke freshman phenom Jabari Parker has more than lived up to the hype. This season he has shown that he can play anywhere — from shooting guard to center — grab rebounds, knock down threes, and bring Cameron Indoor Stadium to its feet with enormous fastbreak dunks. Through January 22, Parker led the Blue Devils in scoring (18.9 ppg), rebounding (7.7 rpg) and shot blocking (1.2 bpg). NBA stars Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, and Dwyane Wade have even come out to watch him play in person.
Make no mistake that all eyes will continue to be on Parker this March as he tries to go down as the greatest freshman in the history of Duke basketball. If the Blue Devils are going to get to the Final Four for the first time since 2010, Parker will be the one to get them there.
But for Parker this year hasn't just been about basketball. He gave SI KIDS an exclusive inside look at his whirlwind season both on campus and on the court.
I started reading Sports Illustrated Kids when I was little. It was my favorite magazine. I especially liked learning about the habits of athletes I admired. Guys like Carmelo Anthony, LeBron James, and Kobe Bryant. So it's an honor to have an opportunity to write something for the magazine.
When I accepted a scholarship to play basketball for Duke, I knew I was coming to play for a legendary coach — Mike Krzyzewski. And I knew I'd be part of a great team with a chance to compete for a national championship. Those are two big reasons why I chose Duke.
But I also wanted to experience the other things that Duke has to offer. It's one of the top colleges in America. I had a 3.7 GPA in high school. I don't say that to brag. It's just that I like school. I enjoy learning new things. And Duke is loaded with super-smart students and great professors.
So far in my freshman year I have studied writing, photography, and anthropology. My favorite class, however, has been one that examines the films of Spike Lee. It's actually an English class and we have studied the words and the art of filmmaking.
Watching movies is my only hobby, so I watch a lot of films. But after taking the Spike Lee class I no longer watch films the way I used to. Now I break them down, scene-by-scene. I look for underlying meanings. And I consider the messages the filmmaker is trying to get across on screen.
Education broadens horizons. It is like going on a journey to a new place and making friends with strangers. My experience is a good example. I grew up on the South Side of Chicago. I went to a public school called Simeon Career Academy. Everyone in my neighborhood and in my high school is pretty similar. We're the same color and our families are working class. I feel pretty lucky to be from Chicago. I am grateful for my home and the street I grew up on. I enjoyed high school too. The bottom line is that I wouldn't trade my roots for anything. But at the same time, I am very grateful for the new and totally different experiences I've had at Duke. It's not like Chicago. It's not like my neighborhood. I go to school with kids from all over the U.S. and the world. Some are rich. Some are not. Some are Asian and African-American; others are Jewish and Christian.
Being part of such a diverse community is a blessing. It's inspiring. Duke has reminded me that who you are as a person and how you treat others is much more important than a person's skin color, religious affiliation, or ethnicity.
School has also reminded me that I am a part of something much bigger than me. I learn that from being on a team too. As Blue Devils we play our best basketball when we sacrifice for each other. You do that by giving up the ball to a teammate with a more open shot, or by playing team defense that forces turnovers and leads to easy baskets.
I spent many, many hours practicing basketball in my teen years. I avoided parties. I never was into hanging out. I just worked at my game. Rarely a day went by that I didn't touch a basketball. And when I wasn't playing ball, I was usually doing something with my family or my church. Those good habits helped put me in a position to be a college basketball player. Basically basketball became my ticket to the great experiences I am having in college. I guess what I'm saying is that hard work and dedication pay off.
A lot of times kids want things to come easy. But the best things in life aren't handed to us. My coach at Duke went to West Point before he became a coach. He learned discipline and the importance of doing things that are hard. He teaches my teammates and me that sometimes the things we don't want to do are the things we need to do the most.

Q: solving a for loop with stream I solved this rather easy task where given is a list containing a list containing a list and so on.
Using for loops its pretty easy to get the desired info but I just can´t wrap my hea around how to solve the same with a stream. Since I read a lot about how easy streams are I wanted to use this to practise them but I guess I haven´t fully understood them yet.
Please help me and explain how to solve the same task.
Working for loop looks like this:
    public Product getProduct(@RequestParam Long productId,@RequestParam Long colorId) {

    Optional<ProductResource> product = productService.findProduct(productId);

    List<ProductVariantResource> variantResources = product.get().getVariants();
    ProductVariantResource selectedVariantResource = null;
    ProductColorResource selectedColorResource = null;
    Long lowestPrice = 999999999999L;
    String lowestPriceCurrency = null;

    for (ProductVariantResource variantResource : variantResources) {
        List<ProductColorResource> colorResources = variantResource.getColors();
        for (ProductColorResource productColorResource : colorResources) {
            if (productColorResource.getId().equals(colorId)) {
                selectedVariantResource = variantResource;
                selectedColorResource = productColorResource;
                List<ProductSizeResource> sizeResources = productColorResource.getSizes();
                for (ProductSizeResource productSizeResource : sizeResources) {
                    if (lowestPrice > productSizeResource.getPrice().getValue()){
                        lowestPrice = productSizeResource.getPrice().getValue();
                        lowestPriceCurrency = productSizeResource.getPrice().getCurrency();
                    }
                }
        }
    }

    String productName = product.get().getName();
    String selectedColorName = selectedColorResource.getName();
    Long selectedVariantId = selectedVariantResource.getId();
    String selectedVariantName = selectedVariantResource.getName();
    BigDecimal price = new BigDecimal(lowestPrice).movePointLeft(2);
    String bestPrice = "ab "+ lowestPriceCurrency + " " + price;
    String lastPrice = bestPrice.replace(".",",");
    Product foundProduct = new Product(productId, productName, selectedVariantId, selectedVariantName, colorId, selectedColorName, lastPrice);

    return foundProduct;
}

A: Here is how I would do it:
class VariantWithColor { // this class should be outside of your Controller. If you are on a modern java version this can be a record instead
        private ProductVariantResource productVariantResource;
        private ProductColorResource productColorResource;

        public VariantWithColor(ProductVariantResource productVariantResource, ProductColorResource productColorResource) {
            this.productVariantResource = productVariantResource;
            this.productColorResource = productColorResource;
        }

        public ProductVariantResource getProductVariantResource() {
            return productVariantResource;
        }

        public ProductColorResource getProductColorResource() {
            return productColorResource;
        }
}

    public Product getProduct(@RequestParam Long productId,@RequestParam Long colorId) {

        ProductResource product = productService.findProduct(productId).get();

        VariantWithColor selectedVariantAndColor = product.getVariants()
                .stream()
                .flatMap(vr -> vr
                        .getColors()
                        .stream()
                        .map(cr -> new VariantWithColor(vr, cr)))
                .filter(vc -> Objects.equals(vc.getProductColorResource().getId(), colorId))
                .findFirst()
                .orElseThrow(); // throw exception if no element exists

        var lowestPrice = selectedVariantAndColor
                .getProductColorResource()
                .getSizes()
                .stream()
                .map(ProductSizeResource::getPrice)
                .min((a,b) -> (int) (a.getValue() - b.getValue()))
                //could also use: .min(Comparator.comparingLong(Price::getValue)) which is more declarative
                .orElseThrow();

        ProductColorResource selectedColorResource = selectedVariantAndColor.getProductColorResource();
        ProductVariantResource selectedVariantResource = selectedVariantAndColor.getProductVariantResource();

        String productName = product.getName();
        String selectedColorName = selectedColorResource.getName();
        Long selectedVariantId = selectedVariantResource.getId();
        String selectedVariantName = selectedVariantResource.getName();
        BigDecimal price = new BigDecimal(lowestPrice.getValue()).movePointLeft(2);
        String bestPrice = "ab "+ lowestPrice.getCurrency() + " " + price;
        String lastPrice = bestPrice.replace(".",",");

        return new Product(productId, productName, selectedVariantId, selectedVariantName, colorId, selectedColorName, lastPrice);
    }

The 2 most important transformations in streams (in my opinion):
map: if you have a List<A> and a function that takes an A and gives a B, you can create a List<B>.
filter: if you have a List<A> and a function that takes an A and gives a boolean you can create a smaller List<A> where only the elements for which the function returns true are included.
A special case of the map is the flatMap, where you transform each element into multiple elements and then "flatten" the list. Flattening means turning a List<List<A>> into a List<A>. So [[1,2,3], [2,3]] would turn into [1,2,3,2,3]
One problem is that your data is not structured in a way that is nice for streams, as you need info from every layer. But I would still argue its more readable

Filippo Abbiati (Milan, 1640 - Milan, 1715) est un peintre italien, qui figure, avec Andrea Lanzani et Stefano Maria Legnani, parmi les plus importants peintres milanais du maniérisme de l'école lombarde.

Biographie

Élève de Carlo Francesco Nuvolone, dont il reprit le touche fluide et le goût des arrières spacieux et lumineux, et ensuite de Antonio Busca, il se forma en prévalence sur l'étude de la première peinture du  lombard, de Cerano et Procaccini; en développant la connaissance du baroque romain jusqu'à atteindre les premières manifestations du rococo, de la peinture vénitienne de Federico Bencovich et Sebastiano Ricci, en influençant envers cette direction les élèves Pietro Maggi, Giuseppe Rivola et Alessandro Magnasco.

Abbiati développa une abondante production surtout à Milan et ses alentours mais les notices sur sa vie sont peu nombreuses. En 1671 il produit une toile – perdue – pour l'église milanaise de Santa Maria del Carmine et une autre, encore perdue, pour l'École de San Giovanni à Murano, près de Venise, tandis qu'un voyage à Rome avant de 1674 a été supposé pour expliquer les influences de la peinture romaine sur sa toile du Bienheureux Ptolémée, conservée dans l'église milanaise de San Vittore al Corpo.

Au Sanctuaire de la Beata Vergine dei Miracoli à Saronno il peignit en 1677 le retable da la Prédication de saint Jean-Baptiste, peut-être en collaboration avec Luca Borromeo, et un David; en 1688 il y peignera aussi  La chute de la manne.

En 1680 lui sont commissionnés trois toiles pour l'église de San Sebastiano à Milan.
Ses chefs-d'œuvre sont considérés les fresques dans l'église de Sant'Alessandro, exécutés du 1683 au 1696 en collaboration avec  Federico Bianchi, où n'est pas facile distinguer l'œuvres des deux peintres. En tant il peint Le concile d'Ephèse pour l'église de Santa Maria del Carmine et les 31 toiles des Scènes de la vie de saint Laurent pour la Cathédrale de Novara.

En 1700 il obtint de paiements pour ses contributions aux cérémonies funéraires en honneur de l'empereur Charles II. Vers cette année il peint pour l'église milanaise de Sant'Antonio les Scènes de la vie de saint Andrea Avellino, le Saint Antoine convertit un hérétique, le Saint Pierre martyre démasque une fausse Madone et le Miracle de la mule, ces deux derniers conservés actuellement au Musée Diocésain de Milan.

Sa dernière activité n'est pas documentée

Il participa également au cycle monumental Quadroni di San Carlo du dôme de Milan avec le tableau Il solenne ingresso di San Carlo in Milano.

"Do you love Brahms?" The majority of music lovers will answer "yes," and they might be thinking of the Waltz Op. 39 No. 15. Its gently rocking melody is one of Brahms's most famous inspirations. Both original versions of this popular miniature for piano solo are now offered by G. Henle Publishers in a practical, stand-alone Urtext edition. The more demanding version in A-flat Major is followed by Brahms's own easier arrangement in A Major. A must for every Brahms lover!

Today was a little hectic. Fiona and I were working on CSS cleaning up code.
A lot of tweaking. Britt finished up the javascript.
Feeling a little useless because Britt took on most of the javascript and is
doing a lot 301 jquery which is completely over my head 😩
But it's a learning experience, being in a group and splitting up work, having
people stronger in different areas. Anywho, I'm talking out the side of my neck
right now, not really making any sense.
Hopefully tomorrow goes smoothly. 😊👍🏾

Here's a cool little video with great sound, with a hat tip to Daft Punk's Aerodynamic. A different take (and visual) to Myleene Klass's version.
"My buddy Colin posted a video of his band playing Aerodynamic by Daft Punk and it inspired me to fire up the old Triton and work the crunchy and dirty patches I had from years ago. I rarely uses the triton as a synth anymore, I rely on Logic and MIDI controllers, but I sometimes long for the not-so-pristine sound that some of my triton patches had.

Center for Leadership Development Awarded $11.6 Million
The Indianapolis-based Center for Leadership Development has announced an $11.6 million grant from the Lilly Endowment in support of learning and developmental experiences for African-American and minority youth.
The organization will use the grant to scale its services and mentoring programs for CLD students attending colleges and universities where a significant number of the organization's alumni are enrolled, expand its outreach efforts to the student populations it serves, and strengthen its sustainability over the long term. The organization will receive $8.6 million of the grant immediately, while the balance has matching conditions attached to it that are designed to encourage additional contributions in support of the organization's programs.
"We cannot overstate the impact of Lilly Endowment's generosity," said CLD president Dennis Bland. "Expanding CLD's reach will move the organization from transforming individual lives to transforming entire communities, breaking cycles of poverty, and serving as a model for other cities facing challenges in education, public safety, and building a diverse workforce. Thank you, Lilly Endowment, for prioritizing minority youth in Indianapolis and for supporting organizations that seek to positively impact their future."
"Lilly Endowment is proud to have supported CLD since its very beginning because of its commitment to the character development, leadership formation, and academic and career success of African-American and other minority youth," said Lilly Endowment president, CEO, and chair N. Clay Robbins. "The testimonies of CLD alumni to the impact CLD has had on their lives are quite compelling, and our community benefits every day from their leadership. We are pleased that this new grant will help enable CLD to reach even more young people and enhance their CLD experiences."
