iPad. The rest of the story.
So iPad is now official, and available in waves over the next 60-90 days (WiFi only in 60, WiFi + 3G in 90). It shows the maturity of some of Apple's strategies, the development of the iPhone OS, and brings us the first fruit from the PA Semi purchase (the CPU is a custom ARM design built by PA Semi's team and manufactured for Apple's exclusive use). My initial thoughts:
- iPad is reasonably well-priced for what it is. The lack of a cellular subsidy for it is also good - contract-free and unlocked is the way to go. Plus there's no real reason why VoIP can't be used on it, remember, AT&T said a while back that VoIP was OK. We'll see if it flies now in the App Store.
- The form factor is good, albeit a little awkward. It should fit in a coat pocket if not in your jeans pocket. Of course, since it's Apple it's the best-designed tablet device to date.
- It won't replace a Kindle. Amazon must be relieved. But it will pick up some readers, and help grow the e-book market. And for some kinds of print media it will be the best way to consume it. No wonder magazine and textbook publishers are excited.
- It has just enough work in it to have some professional use. I'd take one away with me on vacation instead of a laptop or netbook - weekender use is a good market. Of course, that means an extra $30 to Apple for the iWork apps...
- As a media device, it's promising. Depends on the battery life in real-world usage. If you can mix apps, surfing, and processor-intensive activities and still get 8-10 hours of continuous use, it's a big winner. Should be possible - other than the screen it's got pretty much the same grade of components as an iPhone and plenty more room for battery inside.
- There's still a few holes in it. No camera means no videoconferencing. That would be a killer app for the iPad, and would be a no-brainer for the 2011 model. 64GB in the top model is very nice, but 128GB would be even better. Or even 96GB. Media libraries are big. Mine's got 21GB of photos, 17GB of music, 21GB of movies, 5GB of TV, and 2.5GB of podcasts. Plus 3GB of apps (I've got Navigon installed plus a big nav chart app). That's almost 70GB right there, and my library isn't huge. An online storage option that ties to MobileMe would be compelling as a way of handling this, but there wasn't any anything on that front today. Look for more to come from Apple, maybe between now and launch. Apple likes to put other things out there between announcement and launch to help increase hype. Wouldn't surprise me if that happened here.
- Also, there's other things we know are coming soon from Apple. They chose not to reveal them today. Most of the code in iWork for the iPad will manifest itself in an iWork '10 that I'd expect soon. And for sharing the files iWork.com will likely go into production and leave beta. Also due soon (I thought it would be today) - iPhone 4.0 software. This is going to be announced before the iPhone 2010 model according to Apple's model. Probably in March, right around the shipping of iPad. The other thing I expected today but didn't see is the Intel i5-based MacBook Pro. All the other vendors have them out now, I figured Apple would use that as a "build-the-excitement" announcement before the main event today but was mistaken. Probably out in the next week or so since it didn't make it today. Apple gets too much revenue from MacBook Pros to let it wait too long.
- In a nutshell, I think iPad will be a solid success, though not a game-changer yet. They've built a tablet device that is probably the coolest one on the market today, but has plenty of room for improvement. So once you're hooked, you'll buy a new one every year. Exactly what they want. Damn, those guys are good...

Why all politics is local
Here in Massachusetts, a Senate race that wouldn be in most cases a blowout for the Democrat (as usual) has turned into a nail-biter. The result on Tuesday is completely up for grabs. Looking at the two candidates, the Democrat (Attorney General Martha Coakley) has a solid track record of accomplishment and the Rebublican (State Senator Scott Brown) has a history as pretty much a speedbump. Why is it so close? Here's a few of the reasons:
National issues: The shine is off Obama as reality has begun to set in. Though the economy has improved, it's not enough to keep him at his peak popularity. And the messy business of governing means that a lot of his election rhetoric hasn't come to pass. This reflects poorly on Coakley by association, and the lack of Democratic unity (as usual) means that slow progress continues.
The Teabagger Factor: Scott Brown has wingnut appeal. He's pretty far right (hell, by Massachusetts standards he's a jackboot-wearer), and so the nuts are out for him.
The Local Factor: Here in Massachusetts, we've almost always been a one-party state except we like to elect Republican governors to pretend we've got balance. We all hate Beacon Hill but we like our legislator. The reality is that frustration with the Legislature's been building steadily for years, and though Coakley's a constitutional officer instead of a legislator she's seen as part of the problem. Brown, on the other hand, is an actual state Senator - but there aren't even enough Republicans in the state Senate to affect a veto (5 out of 40). He doesn't really show up at all.
The Arrogance Factor: Coakley won easily in the primary election, with all assuming that meant an easy win in the final. But the primary was really just a test of early organization, and Coakley had been in the race since before Kennedy died. She's only taken it seriously for about the last week.
The Payback Factor: One of the big X-Factors in this race. In the 1980s and 90s, a number of high-profile cases were tried here that Coakley was a factor in - most notably the Fells Acres daycare abuse case. As DA, she worked hard even in the face of overwhelming evidence to try and keep the Fells Acres operators behind bars. And she still sees the decision to push to keep the Amiraults behind bars as a correct one. I'm one of a lot of people who take that one personally.

Q: GROUP BY error with TOP in T-SQL / SQL Server I have this table in my SQL Server database.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[CODIFICHE_FARMACI]
(
    [Principio_Attivo] [nvarchar](250) NULL,
    [LanguageID] [nvarchar](50) NOT NULL,
    [Codice] [nvarchar](50) NOT NULL,
    [Confezione_rif] [nvarchar](1000) NULL,
    [ATC] [nvarchar](100) NULL,
    [Farmaco] [nvarchar](1000) NULL,
    [Confezione] [nvarchar](1000) NULL,
    [Ditta] [nvarchar](100) NULL,

    CONSTRAINT [PK_CODIFICHE_FARMACI]
        PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([LanguageID] ASC, [Codice] ASC)
)

Now I want extract from this table the first 60 record group by Farmaco column.
So I wrote this query :
SELECT TOP 60 *
FROM CODIFICHE_FARMACI
GROUP BY Farmaco

But I have this strange error:

La colonna 'CODIFICHE_FARMACI.Principio_Attivo' non è valida nell'elenco di selezione perché non è inclusa né in una funzione di aggregazione né nella clausola GROUP BY.

In English:

The column 'CODIFICHE_FARMACI.Principio_Attivo' is invalid in the select list because it is not included in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.

EDIT: with this query, I get this result

As you can see I have replicate the column Farmaco (There are two times ABBA, ABESART)

EDIT as result I want :

|FARMACO|
ABBA
ABESART
ABILIFY

A: If you want to select the first 60 Farmaco values while showing only distinct values, you can try using SELECT DISTINCT:
SELECT DISTINCT TOP 60 Farmaco
FROM [dbo].[CODIFICHE_FARMACI]
ORDER BY Farmaco

Note that if you really have records that are duplicate then it implies your data is not normalized.  Possibly, the duplicates only are the same with regard to certain columns, but not others.

A: Try this:
SELECT Top 60
  a.Farmaco
  FROM [dbo].[CODIFICHE_FARMACI] A
GROUP BY A.Farmaco

A: SELECT TOP 60 cf.Farmaco
FROM CODIFICHE_FARMACI AS cf
GROUP BY cf.Farmaco
ORDER BY cf.Farmaco

When you use GROUP BY, you'll get a distinct values from the column/s followed by GROUP BY (in your case Farmaco).
First the FROM statement is going be executed, then the retrieved data set now with alias cf from CODIFICHE_FARMACI is going to be grouped by cf.Farmaco.
The SELECT command will retrieve only cf.Farmaco column values, with ORDER BY they will be ordered ascending (because ORDER BY expression, has a default ascending ordering). At the end TOP 60 will filter only 60 ROWS from the data set.
When you specify SELECT * and you have GROUP BY clause you will have a problem, because every column written in GROUP BY must be at the SELECT statement.
You can also add columns that are a result of aggregate functions such as SUM, MIN, MAX and etc. to the SELECT statement.

Passenger fumes over 'extortionate' £20 charge to retrieve lost property from airport
Woman left coat in lounge but was faced with a bill to get it back
Brett Gibbons
(Image: MEN MEDIA)
An angry holidaymaker was furious when she found she must pay £20 to retrieve a jacket left in an airport passenger lounge.
The teacher described the charge as 'extortionate' and said she wanted to raise awareness of the little-known charges facing travellers using Manchester Airport.
However, the firm which handles lost property at the airport said the charge was 'standard' across much of the UK.
Lost property is managed on behalf of the airport by Excess Baggage Group Ltd, who insist the fee has 'remained unchanged since 2001' and is 'standard' across most UK airports.

Emails sent to the woman from the company initially refer to a £20 'retrieval fee', but it's described as a 'storage fee' in subsequent correspondence.
And then, despite being told her jacket had been found, she said it wasn't there when she went to collect it after landing back at the airport.
Excess Baggage Group set the charges, but they are agreed by airport bosses as part of the company's operation agreement.
The Stockport woman, who has asked not to be named, jetted away with her husband and a friend for a six-day trip to Holland over half-term. They had a drink and a meal in the 1903 Lounge at Terminal 3 before the flight on May 27.

The designer jacket was a gift from her husband, but she left it on an armchair and only realised it had been left behind when she boarded her flight.
She immediately tried to call the airport but was unable to get through, so emailed Excess Baggage and said she would be flying back to Manchester on the Sunday - June 2.
Three days later she got the 'great news' in an email that her jacket 'had just come in' and was available for collection with 'a retrieval fee of £20'.
"I'm so happy my jacket has made the long journey back to the check in desk," she replied in a scathing email.
"Security must be exhausted after carrying it around for four days!
The 1903 lounge in Terminal 3 (Image: MAG)
Could you please give me a breakdown of how such a large amount of money has been accrued by such a small jacket? Am I paying for the security person who has guarded it so closely for the last four days?"
She was then told it was a 'storage fee' - and again replied to protest against the 'extortionate charge'.
"Lost property goes downstairs to T3 and once it is paired up with a description, it goes upstairs to await collection," she told the Manchester Evening News.
"But there is a £20 charge, which I think is ridiculously excessive. I went to collect it after I landed and it took them 45 minutes for them to discover that they had not got it or could not find it, or had no idea where it was. My issue really is with the charge.
"With the parking and drop-off charges at the airport, it could cost a lot of money just to get something you own back."
Excess Baggage has since confirmed the jacket has been found and would be mailed to her free of charge.
In a statement, Excess Baggage Group Ltd said: "Lost property charges are approved by Manchester Airport Group and are standard across most major UK airports and rail stations.
"These charges which are set by the Association of Train Operating Companies, have remained unchanged since 2001. The policy of charging for lost property service is standard on an international basis, and is levied on a 'user pays' basis, otherwise the travelling public in general would be forced to pay for the forgetfulness of the few.
"In relation to the misidentification of the item involved, it is sometimes difficult to make exact matches of garments based on a verbal description. When the passenger came to retrieve the garment that we had in our possession, it was confirmed that it was not in fact her item.
"We depend on a variety of parties across the airport to deliver items of lost property to us. Sometimes this does take time, and this process is beyond our control. Turning to the lack of response, unfortunately the staff member involved was on leave due to Eid, and failed to communicate the whole situation to other staff members. We will be apologising to the passenger for this unsatisfactory chain of events.
"We are pleased to confirm that the item has now been successfully identified and that the garment will be returned to her, free of charge, as a gesture of goodwill."
A Manchester Airport spokesman said: "Excess Baggage set the charges, but we do agree them as part of them operating out of the airport."

On September 16, 2017, the Procedure for compiling and maintaining the register of accepted creditors' claims and satisfaction of claims filed by creditors of liquidated banks, which was approved by the decision of the Deposit Guarantee Fund (DGF) No. 3711 of August 21, 2017 (hereinafter referred to as "the Procedure"), came into force.
In particular, the Procedure regulates in detail the processes of determining the amount of creditors' claims, assigning creditors' claims to a specific waiting list, rejecting claims, and maintaining the register of accepted creditors' claims.
Creditors have to raise their claims within 30 days from the day of publication of information on withdrawal of the banking license and bank liquidation. At the same time, claims received after the expiry of the period specified for raising creditor claims are considered to be repaid, except for the depositors' claims within the amount of repayment of deposits guaranteed by the DGF.
From October 1, 2017 to June 20, 2018, the pilot project on the introduction of electronic land auction by the local bodies of the State Service of Ukraine for Geodesy, Cartography, and Cadastre (auction organizer) will operate in Ukraine. A lot at the auction will present the right (lease, emphyteusis) to the plot of agricultural land owned by the state. The implementation of this project is stipulated by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 688 of June 21, 2017 (hereinafter referred to as "the Resolution").
The executor conducting the auction (an economic entity that has concluded an agreement with the organizer on conducting the auction) will be selected by means of competition.
Electronic land auctions will be held 30 days after their announcement, and those wishing to take part will need to file an application and the documents specified in the Resolution and pay the registration and guarantee fees.
Auction participants will submit their bid proposals for the lot through the executor's website with the bid increment specified in the auction announcement.
The winner will be the participant, whose pricing proposal is the highest one at the moment of completion of electronic land auction. Based on the results of the electronic land auction, an agreement on lease and/or emphyteusis of the land plot will be concluded.
The National Bank of Ukraine has obliged banking institutions to inform individuals and legal entities about their recognition as persons associated with the bank. The bank has to make such notification in writing and not later than on the business day following the recognition of the person as the one associated with the bank and the entry of information about it into the list of such persons.
Also, legal entities are no longer considered to be associated with the bank on the basis of their affiliation due to the substantial involvement of the state, a territorial community, or an international financial institution, for which privileges and immunities are established.
Relevant amendments were made to the Regulation on the determination of persons associated with the bank by virtue of the NBU Board Resolution No. 91 of September 15, 2017, which entered into force on September 19, 2017.
The SFS has refined the "Electronic Cabinet of a Taxpayer" in terms of providing access to the Unified Register of Tax Invoices (URTI).
From now on, after their identification via the electronic digital signature (EDS), VAT payers will be able to review information on suspended tax invoices and/or calculated adjustments in their personal cabinet. Also, taxpayers will have an opportunity to examine the decision of the SFS commission on the registration or refusal to register tax invoices and/or calculated adjustments in the URTI.

About PNGR
Pride Nigeria (PNGR) aims to showcase the very best of a great nation; a people who, despite the 'Everest' of odds stacked against them, are doing their best. We also hope this sparks (or should I say adds to) a discuss on moving forward rather than the same old rhetoric and rehearsing of the obvious. We also plan to challenge stereotypes of Nigeria as sometimes propagated by some of the western media*. What we are not is a race magazine nor are we focused on the ills of colonialism even though it might come up from time to time; we are looking forward with eyes of hope.

Microsoft workers listen to some Skype calls, report says
The company says it has procedures in place to protect privacy.
Carrie Mihalcik

Skype calls may not be so private.
Josh Miller/CNET
Microsoft contractors listen to recordings of some Skype conversations to help improve its translation feature, Motherboard reported Wednesday. Skype's website does state it "collects and uses" conversations that utilize the translation feature in order to improve products and services, but according to Motherboard it doesn't specify that this includes human review.
Microsoft's practice with Skype appears similar that of Apple, Amazon and Google, which ask reviewers to analyze some recordings made with their voice assistants. Each of the companies has said it's a key way to improve their systems. Apple, however, last week said it will suspend its program and give people the ability to opt out of the review of Siri recordings. Amazon and Google have made similar moves following public concern over privacy.
Skype, which was founded in 2003 and scooped up by Microsoft in 2011, lets people make video and voice calls over the internet.
Microsoft didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. But in a statement to Motherboard, a Microsoft spokesperson said the company "collects voice data to provide and improve voice-enabled services like search, voice commands, dictation or translation services."
The spokesperson added: "Microsoft gets customers' permission before collecting and using their voice data. We also put in place several procedures designed to prioritize users' privacy before sharing this data with our vendors, including de-identifying data, requiring non-disclosure agreements with vendors and their employees, and requiring that vendors meet the high privacy standards set out in European law."
Skype audio that contractors listen to includes intimate conversations about relationship problems and personal issues such as weight loss, according to Motherboard. Audio recordings that were provided to Motherboard ranged between 5 and 10 seconds, but reportedly can run longer. Contractors also reportedly listen to voice commands that users speak to Cortana, Microsoft's virtual assistant.
Skype's real-time translation of voice calls currently works for 10 languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Italian, Portuguese, Arabic and Russian.

"Shame On You!" Leftists Attack Cherokee Nation For Criticizing Elizabeth Warren
Chris Menahan
Leftists responded with rage and anger after Cherokee Nation came out on Monday to criticize Elizabeth Warren for "undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage."
Warren earlier in the day released the results of a DNA test conducted at "a private lab in Georgia" which said she might possibly be anywhere from 1/64th to 1/1,024th Native American (which means she may have less Native American DNA than the average white American).
"Using a DNA test to lay claim to any connection to the Cherokee Nation or any tribal nation, even vaguely, is inappropriate and wrong," Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin Jr. said in a statement. "It makes a mockery out of DNA tests and its legitimate uses while also dishonoring legitimate tribal governments and their citizens, whose ancestors are well documented and whose heritage is proven. Senator Warren is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage."

Leftists on Twitter responded with outrage:
Elizabeth Warren never claimed to be part of your tribe
Republicans are taking away the right to vote from Native Americans and Cherokee Nation is attacking someone who can help protect their rights
You're literally on the same side Einsteins – FOCUS!!!!
— VOTE NOVEMBER 6 (@jonathanjewel) October 15, 2018
If facts matter in determining membership, the fact is that she never claimed to be part of your tribe or that she was seeking tribal membership. Not only that, 45 has used racist language to denigrate her heritage, which is the reason for the test.
— ARFLucci (@lawgurrl) October 15, 2018
You don't understand. Please don't do everything but call my brothers and sisters, " dumb Indian's ". It seems so simple to you. You have not seen your culture all but killed over years of " being grateful " for nice people's cast offs. We fight to retain our culture. DNA. squat.
— CHRISTMAS 'n' TEARGAS ho ho ho (@suevee85) October 16, 2018
She never claimed tribal citizenship. She simply claimed that she has some native blood in her ancestry and the DNA proves exactly that.
Why is Cherokee Nation backing Trump on this?
— Thomas Jamison (@ThomasJsmison) October 15, 2018
This is not a "backing Trump" move. It's clarity on what it means to be Native American and be able to prove it will lineage records. We have to provide birth certificates that shows our links to true Native Americans. Not just "high cheekbones".
— Mary Keller Bailey (@mbailey186) October 15, 2018
She has never attempted to claim tribal membership nor represented herself as a native person of any tribal affiliation for any purpose. She has this story as part of her family lore and believed it. Her political opponent turned it into a dirty trick.
— Aristotelian Mom (@AristotelianMom) October 15, 2018
Why are you giving those who want to cast Elizabeth Warren in a bad light, who've enjoyed calling her Pocahontas as a slur, any ammunition like this without cause? Did she EVER say anything about want to gain anything because of what she felt was an endearing family story, hunh?
— Pond lady (@newswatcher2) October 15, 2018
Somehow every liberal who claims to be a Cherokee managed to post a response.
https://twitter.com/_indiebell/status/1051983496334503938
As a Cherokee. (Among others) I accept her as a sister. I'm sick of the division we place on one another as natives, counting quantum blood until there are no treaties. Stop playing the white game.
— Porphyria's escape (@momentsofsurre1) October 15, 2018
I'm a tribe member. That stuff in the Judge Parks room in your little museum downtown was donated by me. He was my great grandfather. I'm horrified with your stance on this issue, and you should bow your heads in shame. Did she demand a blue card? No? Who's pulling your strings?

my mother is 3rd generation Cherokee./Mahigan, her grandfather left the reservation from Oklahoma and moved to Massachusetts and lived in the city.. does that mean because he left the reservation that his future generations are not tribal citizens? I don't blame him for leaving
— margarita jacobo (@m_jacobo) October 15, 2018
I don't know if any of those people are actual members of the Cherokee Nation, but I do know libs' favorite argumentation tactic is to falsely claim they were, or are part of a group before criticizing them.

Borussia Dortmund striker Ciro Immobile hopes to turn his season-long loan with Sevilla into a permanent deal.
The 25-year-old moved to Dortmund for almost 20 million euros a year ago after scoring 22 league goals for Torino during the 2013-14 season.
But the Italy international failed to establish himself in Dortmund's first team last season, scoring just three goals in 24 Bundesliga appearances, and has now been handed the opportunity to resurrect his career in Spain.


Costa Classica was renamed Costa neoClassica in December 2014 after an extensive refurbishment and redesign. The luxury cruise liner Costa neoClassica is a masterpiece of Italian cruise design--no expense was spared in creating the perfect Italian cruise ship environment. Stroll through the Tavernetta of chic boutiques, dine in the gourmet Tivoli restaurant, relax in a choice of 2 swimming pools, 4 jacuzzis or a beautifully equipped spa and fitness center. A disco is perched high above her elegant decks for late-night dancing and entertainment aboard the Costa neoClassica.
"We have just returned from a 7 night cruise in the Eastern Med from Trieste calling at Ancona, Dubrovnik, Corfu, Argostoli, Kotor and Split. We chose this cruise for the destinations. Don't believe the bad reviews about this ship, yes it is noisy and yes there is a crush for breakfast and lunch in the self service restaurant but it does cater for Europeans who are noisy (but that's part of their culture and it's fun listening to them. As for breakfast and lunch you can always go in the Tivoli restaurant where it's much more civilized. We found the food excellent. The entertainment was good - they tried very hard. The bars are great. Buy the all inclusive drinks package it's well worth it. We are not big drinkers but it great being able to have any drinks (alcoholic, soft or hot drinks) any time you wanted. All the staff spoke good English and were very welcoming and friendly and helpful.
The ship is a bit tired but I believe it is going in for a refurbishment soon. The cabins were great (outside no 7150)plenty of room and drawers and wardrobe space. Safe in the cabin too.
This was a great cruise and we would definitely go on a Costa cruise again."
This Costa Classica is a great way to see new destinations that are becoming more popular. It is a hassle free way to see the Middle East in a safe environment with helpful staff.
The meals were served in the Tivoli Restaurant a traditional cruise ship restaurant. I had first sitting at 18:30, second sitting was 21:00.
The food was five star quality with attentive waiters/waitress.
There was a good choice on the menu plus an additional Italian option unique to Costa Cruises.
Breakfast and Lunch could be taken in the Tivoli Restaurant or the La Trattoria Buffet Restaurant. The only down side was the buffet restaurant was closed at night giving you only one dining option.
Book the all inclusive package at 140 Euros (£120) per person for a 7 night cruise. It works out to 20 Euros (£17) a night.
The drinks on board the Costa Classica both alcoholic and non-alcoholic were expensive and the drinks package represents good value for money.
The E2 outside cabin was very spacious at 200 square foot much bigger than on modern ships as the Costa Classica is 21 years old. The port hole was about 4 foot in diameter and provided plenty of light in the cabin. The bathroom was large with a good shower. The bed was extremely comfortable and there was plenty of room for clothes with a large wardrobe.
The entertainment was provided in several languages as it is Costa Cruises. Firstly in Italian, then English, German, French and Spanish.
The main languages were Italian, English and German.
The dancers in the shows were great and were Las Vegas style production shows. Comedy was provided by Duo Lafracci an Italian & Scottish couple.
There show was great as it involved the audience and made a connection with everyone.
The Shore Excursions were expensive but you got to see a lot in a short space of time. With Costa I did excursions in Fujairah, Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
Dubai - Superb, lots to see from the Burj Khalifa (World's Tallest Building), Burj Al Arab and Dubai Mall.
Muscat - A large Arabic seaside town with friendly locals. The main attraction was the Al Alam Palace.
Fujairah - A small port with not much to see. I would recommend the beach excursion to the Rotana Beach Resort or the 4X4 Desert Safari.
Khasab - A very small port with nothing to see but a few shops.
Abu Dhabi - A good port with lots to see and do. The Grand Mosque, Yas Marina Circuit and Ferrari World are the main attractions. it has lots of skyscrappers like Dubai. Ferrari World highlights include the world's fastest rollercoaster and a Formula 1 simulator.
"Don't get me wrong crusing is lovley and the Costa Concordia is a fantastic ship, however there are somethings to be aware of the package is quite low priced all the surprises come later, for instance Hays (Imagine Cruising)went right through my requirements then right at the end of our booking which took 20 -30 mins I was told by the way there is a £50 booking fee... and thats where it started. When we got on board we were then told we had to pay a 7 euro per person service charge, a pint of larger was £11 etc etc, then on one of our final nights on board we were told that we would get a surprise desert with our meal, to members of staff started handing out liqurers in chocloate 'shot glasses' we all drank them thinking this was our surprise but no staright afterwards someone came around the table demanding 4.50euros for the drink. Apart from all the hidden costs and I do mean hidden the ship and staff are brilliant just be aware its not as cheap as you might first think."

Mount Everest plane crash blamed on pilot error
Another Yeti Twin Otter at Lukla
Investigators in Nepal have blamed the crash of a DeHavilland DHC-6 Twin Otter near Mount Everest in October last year on pilot error. Eighteen of the nineteen on board were killed when Yeti Airlines Flight 103 struck a rock at the side of the runway at Lukla Airport and caught fire.
The only survivor of the crash was the aircraft's captain. Twelve Germans, four Nepalis and two Australians were killed. The flight had departed from Katmandu and was attempting to land at Lukla, which is at an elevation of 9,200 feet (2,800 meters), and has a sheer drop at the runway's end.
The report says the pilots had underestimated deteriorating weather conditions during approach, and had attempted landing after entering a thick patch of fog. Investigators examined the crash site and interviewed eyewitnesses before producing the report, which has been submitted to the government.

Those names for a ship.. Kinda.. Meeeehh? Why can't we have anything cool? A choice to honor Lordearon for example, or Stromgard.
Other than Dawnsailor, they all represent Stormwind, and Anduin pretty well, and it Is his flagship.
My character is a Night Elf Druid for God's sake, and they're asking me to name the ship. How about something, idk, related to the entire NE city-state that was burned to the ground? If the humans don't want my input, they shouldn't be asking me!
They all fly. They're not going to hand out flying racial mounts while the rest are ground-only.
That's a good point. They'll have to release unused models sometime since they decided against attaching them to paragon rep boxes. The bee wasn't the only one, ofc there are unused horses (lol). The Proudmoore Admiralty were supposed to give another gryphon.
He's discussing the rep mounts specifically, because if fewer of those were horses he wouldn't care as much that KT are getting a horse. I personally like horses, but I do find it interesting that Blizzard gave Horde two flying rep mounts and then said that Alliance got all horses because they weren't going to give flying mounts before flight was unlocked.
Wait hold on... what is Mekatorque doing on the ship there?
Either they planned and dropped giving us full access to Thros(could still be a second zone in 8.3) or considering it is part of the Nightmare, use it directly as enemy forces in 8.3. Either way they are clearly saving the Wicker models considering they'd be silly not to turn them into mounts, but unlike others they haven't even been datamined.
Taliesin and Evitel will be very pleased about Rosalind.
Why is Gelbin at the end of the quest chain? Isn't he critically injured and frozen in a block of ice?
They're just mounts. There will always be a bajillion more.
BORING storyline. Just like every alliance storyline in BFA.
you mean like the maghar orcs getting ANOTHER WOLF? like orcs do? get wolves?exactly like kul'tirans HUMANS, getting another horse?
ohhh I wanted one of the big ships!
I just wanted to add my two copper on this topic, since it has already been brought up repeatedly and I certainly have an opinion on it as well!

High in the pine forests of the Spanish Sierra, a band of anti-fascist guerrilla prepares to blow up a strategically vital bridge. Robert Jordan, a young American volunteer, has been sent to handle the dynamiting. There, in the mountains, he finds the dangers and the intense comradeship of war. And there he discovers Maria, a young woman who has escaped from Franco's rebels.
'The world is a fine place and worth the fighting for and I hate very much to leave it' To mark the centenary of the First World War, Vintage is launching a unique collection of war fiction. April 2014 will see the publication of twelve works by the greatest writers of the last century, each tackling this most powerful and universal of subjects.


Good morning, it's the first Sunday of the month and that means a new challenge has started at Penny Black and More. Our theme for the month of October is Autumn Splendor.
You might remember a very recent card where I used this stamp (Blossom Branch by Penny Black) combined with a fox image, this was the second time I had stamped the image using the same marker coloring without re-inking the stamp. It's another reason why I love these brushstrokes stamps, I get (at least) two stamped impression from one inking. It is a little more watercolor-y than I would have preferred, but didn't really want to throw it away.
The card was really quick to make, after the stamped image was dry, I inked around the edges using Scattered Straw distress ink and a little bit of Rusty Hinge distress ink, then took a black ink pad and wiped directly over the edges to give it a darker border. Framed with stampin up's old olive card stock and Neenah linen textured paper was used as a card base. The sentiment is from the Penny Black set Heartfelt.
If you saw my post yesterday, then you know that I finally purchased a photo tent, and might be wondering why this card still shows the dark shadow on the left. It's because this card was finished and photographed before it arrived. If you have no idea what photo tent I am taking about, you can read about it here, if you like to.
Thanks so much for visiting, and hope to see you over at the Penny Black and More challenge blog. We have some fantastic prizes to give away again this month from Penny Black, Chocolate Baroque and Fantastic Ribbons.

Informed by this investigation and based on the Oshikango case study this dissertation has arrived at the conclusion that SADC is currently unable to achieve its goal of regulating free movement of persons in the region. The problem seems to be that since SADC is a state-based regime, member states take their refuge in the doctrine of state sovereignty, often at the expense of the common regional agenda. In other words they talk regionalism, but they act nationally. Consequently, SADC is an example of shallow integration with limited involvement of civil society and local communities. Thus, cross-border migration control in the region is an issue that will have to be resolved. Informed by these conclusions, this dissertation leads to recommendations for the acceleration of trans-frontier spatial development, such as parks and development corridors. The SADC Forum for Traditional Authorities should also be established to further deepen trans-border interaction and facilitate intra-regional migration management.

Qatar Foundation Announces '50 Percent Female' Conference Panel Pledge
Her Excellency Sheikha Hind bint Hamad Al Thani, Vice Chairperson and CEO of Qatar Foundation (QF), has today reaffirmed the organization's commitment to bringing the widest possible range of perspectives to crucial issues and challenges – by announcing a pledge that will see women make up at least half the panel speakers at all its conferences and events, locally and internationally.
The regionally groundbreaking pledge – which will take effect from the start of 2020 across the organization, a key player in Qatar's economic and social transformation through its initiatives in education, science and research, and community development – means participants in discussions and debates at every QF event, from summits to workshops, will always be no less than 50 percent female.
Announced in the wake of the recent International Women's Day, the move builds on the impact QF has made, over more than two decades, in providing opportunities for people to participate in driving the advancement of society on a local and global scale – regardless of gender, background, and culture – and to fostering diversity and inclusivity.
Supporting the United Nations' focus on female empowerment as a crucial aspect of addressing global economic, social, and political challenges, the pledge announced by Her Excellency Sheikha Hind aims to strengthen dialogue and action on platforms within Qatar, across the Middle East and North Africa region, and around the world; and ensure that both male and female perspective is applied to the task of tackling issues that lie at the core of economic, social, and human development
Her Excellency Sheikha Hind said: "It is my belief, and that of Qatar Foundation, that neither gender nor any other consideration should present a barrier to a person's development, their pursuit of opportunity, and their voice being heard in global conversations about topics, themes, and challenges that affect all of society.
"The pledge we announce today is a natural, visible, and powerful extension of this belief. Through our investment in education and our ethos as an organization, Qatar Foundation's commitment to providing opportunities for everyone to be an active participant in society is personified by the diversity of the achievers and role models we nurture, and the impact they are making in a wide spectrum of fields within Qatar and beyond.
"Now, by committing to having at least 50 percent female representation on all our conference and event panels from 2020 onward, we aim to further emphasize Qatar Foundation's role as a leader and driver of inclusivity and positive social change, nationally and regionally – and the necessity of both men and women being part of making this change happen."
QF's Education City 'multiversity' – home to nine universities – has a predominantly female student body, in which half of its engineering students are women. Meanwhile, women comprise 40 percent of QF's leadership.
In 2018, QF hosted around 40 major local and international events, collectively attended by over 55,000 people. Among the platforms that will represent QF's '50 percent female' pledge on the international stage are the World Innovation Summit for Education (WISE) and the World Innovation Summit for Health (WISH), QF initiatives respectively focused on shaping the future of education and healthcare through innovation and global collaboration.
Their events include biennial international summits that bring together decision-makers, thought leaders, and education and health practitioners from around the world, and include high-level panel sessions. The most recent WISE Summit, in 2017, saw over 100 speakers contribute to more than 50 sessions, with 2,000 delegates attending from over 150 countries. Meanwhile, almost 2,200 healthcare experts from 116 nations participated in the WISH 2018 Summit, which featured 22 expert panels.
Sultana Afdhal, CEO of WISH, said: "Historically, women have been underrepresented in leadership roles within the global healthcare sector. At WISH we work hard to give a voice to all within our extensive international community who are looking to play a part in building a healthier world, whether through participation at our flagship Doha summit or at any of the other events we convene throughout the year.
"If all voices are to be listened to and all ideas are to be given the same attention, concerted efforts must be made to ensure that experts from both genders are provided with the same opportunities to join the conversation. With this in mind, WISH wholeheartedly supports and embraces the QF pledge to promote equality of representation on its panels."
Stavros N. Yiannouka, CEO of WISE, said: "As a global education platform committed to promoting inclusion and diversity in access to education, WISE has, since its inception, provided in our forums and projects visibility opportunities to renowned experts and thought leaders from diverse gender, socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds."

Q: Applying KVL on PNP Voltage Divider Bias BJT
The circuit above is a PNP Voltage Divider Bias BJT. From the book, to get the emitter current, the circuit was transformed first into a Thevenin equivalent circuit then applied KVL from base to emitter:
Vth + (Ib)(Rth) - Vbe + (Ie)(Re) = 0
Where Vth = Vcc (R2 / R1 + R2) and Rth = (R1)(R2) / (R1 + R2)
Finally, Ie = (-Vth + Vbe) / [Re + (Rth / Beta)]
Questions:
1.) From the KVL done from base to emmiter, shouldn't it be -Vth as this is PNP type and the polarities are reverse. Also, why is Vbe is "-" when it should have been reversed too when in PNP? Also, the source Vcc is negative.
2.) If I want to get Vce, applying KVL from Vcc to emitter ground, is: -Vcc + IcRc + Vce = 0 right? Vcc starts from negative, so the polarity of the Rc is negative to positive which is the same for Vce.
3.) When getting Vce, looping at either from emitter ground or from source, why are we ignoring IeRe in the loop when getting Vce?
Note: The book didn't show the Thevenin equivalent for the PNP VDB, it was just stated that it is the opposite of the previewed NPN VDB.

A: It shoudl be IB=−(VTH−VBE)/RTH+(β+1)RE
This answer above stuffed my results up

A: The term, \$V_\text{BE}\$, means \$V_\text{B}-V_\text{E}\$. And the sign is always related to convention current directions and voltage polarities. So in the case of the NPN, where the base is "more positive" than the emitter when forward-biased, the NPN's \$V_\text{BE}\$ is positive. The PNP's case has \$V_\text{BE}\$ as being a negative value. When active mode or saturated, always.
The KVL for the PNP is then:
$$V_\text{TH}+I_\text{B}\cdot R_\text{TH} -V_\text{BE}+I_\text{E}\cdot R_\text{E}=0\:\text{V}$$
\$V_\text{TH}\$ starts out as it is supposed to be, negative-signed. But this means that the most negative end of the Thevenin resistance that follows it is the side nearest \$V_\text{TH}\$. So the positive side is away from it. Therefore you add the base current times the Thevenin resistance, not subtract it. However, in the case of \$V_\text{BE}\$ this has already taken into account \$V_\text{B}-V_\text{E}\$ so you just subtract that, whatever it is. Then again, the more negative end of \$R_\text{E}\$ is closest to the emitter. So the emitter current times \$R_\text{E}\$ is added. This should result in the ground voltage of zero.
\$V_\text{TH}\$ will be negative-valued with a PNP and the \$V_\text{BE}\$ will also be negative-valued.
You can get the base current as:
$$I_\text{B}=-\frac{V_\text{TH}-V_\text{BE}}{R_\text{TH}-\left(\beta+1\right)R_\text{E}}$$
Or the emitter current as,
$$I_\text{E}=-\frac{V_\text{TH}-V_\text{BE}}{\frac{R_\text{TH}}{\beta+1}-R_\text{E}}$$
Which works, regardless. The only difference will be that the sign, not the magnitude, will be different if you are dealing with a PNP instead of an NPN.

Making air solid
Past art shows: Rachel Whiteread, Tate Britain
Rachel Whiteread is one of Britain's leading contemporary artists and my favourite from the YBA group. The latest art exhibition she had at Tate Britain, London, a few months ago revealed the trajectory of her career over three decades from 1988 to date. Time in which she's been casting the so-called "negative spaces" using a variety of materials such as plaster, resin, rubber, concrete, metal and paper. But what are Whiteread's "negative spaces"? The air that surrounds our daily experience or the inner world of objects. We find them in our house, in toilet paper rolls, beneath chairs or inside the mattress we sleep on every night. She makes these "negative spaces" solid with her sculptures.
The original idea comes from the US artist Bruce Nauman work titled "A Cast of the Space Under My Chair" (1965-8) that Whiteread referenced in this art exhibition with her "Untitled (One Hundred Spaces)" (1995) showed across the south part of the Duveen galleries at Tate Britain; 100 casts of the underside of chairs in changing shades of coloured resin and with their own flaws. Whiteread, however, has gone further.
Her work ranges in scale from the modest to the monumental and plays with paradoxes such as capturing human wear and experience with geometric white shapes and minimalism.
Tate Britain showed Whiteread's most important large scale sculptures such as "Untitled (Book Corridors) 1997-8" and "Untitled (Stairs) 2001", both of which I captured on two photos here, alongside her more intimate works with domestic objects such as tables, boxes or hot water bottles. And then, in the middle of the art show stood "Untitled (Room 101)": the plaster cast of the BBC office, demolished in 2003, which inspired George Orwell's torture chamber in Nineteen Eighty-Four.
I first discovered Whiteread as an artist in 2005 and became intrigued with her work. She then populated the Turbine Hall at Tate Modern with a huge labyrinth-like structure entitled "Embankment" made from 14,000 casts of the inside of different boxes. She chose the form of a cardboard box because of its associations with the storage of intimate personal items and to invoke the sense of mystery surrounding ideas of what a sealed box might contain.
Born in London in 1963, Whiteread studied painting at Brighton Polytechnic and sculpture at the Slade School of Fine Art. She was the first woman to win the Turner Prize in 1993 and went on to represent Britain at the 1997 Venice Biennale. She first came to public attention with the unveiling of her first public commission "House" in London's East End in 1993. A concrete cast of the interior of an entire Victorian terraced house with imprints or doors, windows and fireplaces in great detail. The house only stood for a few months before its demolition, but heralded Whiteread's life-long project as an artist: fusing domestic narratives with brutalist architecture and minimalism.
Rachel Whiteread exhibition at Tate Britain was curated by Ann Gallagher and Linsey Young. The exhibition was co-organised with the National Gallery of Art, Washington, curated by Molly Donovan, where it will be shown in autumn 2018, and will also tour to the 21er Haus Vienna and the Saint Louis Art Museum.

We can bring your block paving driveway back to life.
We can pressure wash it, re-sand it and then seal it making it as good as new!
Driveways are often block paving driveways which need maintaining because weeds and dirt start to grow in the gaps over time. Not only does the gaps fill with weeds over time the top surface of the driveway also gets covered in mold, lichens and algae and it start to look dirty, old, dull and disappointing to its original looks.
Cleaning & pressure washing the driveway will remove this and really bring it back to looking at good as new. We use different cleaning products to help remove the mold, lichens, algae and dirt. We then use a powerful petrol pressure washer to give the driveway a high pressure wash.
The high pressure wash will remove all the dirt and grime from the surface and also from the gaps in-between the block paving. But pressure washing alone isn't enough to keep the driveway looking good. You need to re-sand it and then seal it to really see the results.
So this is something that we also do after every pressure wash is re-sand and seal the driveway.
Cleaning and pressure washing the driveway is all good but if you do not re-sand the gaps you risk the blocks moving around which can cause the driveway to damage and become uneven, move around and gaps widen as vehicles drive on and off it. Therefore it is important that the driveway is re-sanded after the pressure washing has been done to avoid this happening. After the re-sanding had been completed its important you consider getting it sealed to protect the driveway.
After sanding has been done you need to consider sealing the driveway. This makes the sand go hard making it much more difficult for the weeds to come back through the gaps. It also puts a thin layer on top to help protect the driveway from getting all the mold, lichen and algae back so quickly, a simple wash and sweep every few weeks would extend the life even longer, it also helps protect against oil leakages. So we always recommend sealing after cleaning a driveway.
Whilst the main surfaces we pressure washing, re-sand and seal are block paving driveways we can also clean other surfaces. Other surfaces we regularly clean include: paths, patios (many different types of patios), walkways and other similar surfaces. They work in the same way but don't always need re-sanding or sealing it really depends on the surfaces and the condition and surroundings. Please contact us if you would like any other surfaces cleaned and we will try to help.

What is the difference between Graviola and Graviola Max?
Graviola Max combines gaviola and mountain graviola, more commonly called mountain soursop. Graviola (Annona muricata) is a tree found in the rainforests of South America, Africa and Southeast Asia. Mountain soursop (Annona montana) is a similar tree that grows in Central America and the Caribbean islands. Although the two trees look alike and are classified in the same family, they comprise different chemical compositions. Graviola Max contains 50 percent each of these two supplements to provide a host of benefits.
The fruits, leaves, seeds and stems of these trees are used to make herbal medicine. People in many countries have traditionally used Annona muricata as a herbal treatment for various conditions.
Buy 3 - 5 bottles and receive 5% off!
Buy 6 or more bottles and receive 10% off!
New and powerful acetogenin chemicals have been discovered in Mountain Graviola (Annona montana) which scientists report have the same dynamic actions as those found in regular Graviola. Different research groups have indicated dramatic benefits of graviola.
The graviola tree contains 82 acetogenin chemicals. The mountain graviola tree has 108 acetogenin chemicals.
Essiacwe believe is one of the greatest herbal formulations ever to be formulated. Essiac is known to assist in blood cleansing among other wonderful benefits.
A pure blend of graviola leaf and stem (Annona muricata), and mountain graviola leaf and stem (Annona montana). No binders, fillers, or additives are used—just 100% pure plants, rich in the naturally occurring plant chemicals that these plants are regarded for.
Take 3 capsules 3-4 times or as directed by a healthcare professional.
Our Graviola Max is 100% sustainably wild-harvested or organically grown in the Amazon rainforest. Our Graviola has been ecologically harvested using indigenous tribes and local communities in the rainforest. This provides a morally and ecologically balanced frame-work to support their need for income and our need for the important botanical resources of the rainforest.

Japan to extend Tokyo state of emergency due to COVID-19
Alexis Hall
TOKYO, Japan: The Japanese government plans to extend the Tokyo emergency until the last week of September, to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Japan last month expanded the system until Sept. 12 to cover at least 80 percent of the population, but the measures did not reduce the number of serious cases and increased pressure on the health system in Tokyo and its neighboring region.
The government also plans to extend the state of emergency in Kanagawa, Saitama, and Chiba counties.
As part of these measures, restaurants, and eateries were asked to reduce their hours and not provide alcohol, while companies were encouraged to allow employees to work from home.
This extension will last until the fourth week of September, coinciding with the two holidays and the time when most people travel.
In addition, the Japanese government is considering extensions to the affected areas in western and central Japan, including Osaka and Aichi, and a decision will be made next week.
It plans to increase or decrease the state of emergency in areas where hospital stay rates have returned to a level that was not necessary, authorities said.
Japan sees the Delta's fifth-largest airborne COVID-19 of the highly contagious type, recording 63 deaths on Friday, as well as 16,729 new cases per day.

Q: Can a chrome extension access a webcam? I have done some research about deloping for chrome. Is it true that only apps (not extensions) accsess the webcam?

A: Any web page can access the webcam (with user permission) via the HTML5 getUserMedia API as long as it has the https protocol.

That would include extensions, apps, and ordinary web pages.


Happy Monday! Is it really though lol, does anyone really like Mondays? The only Mondays i like are the ones where i don't have to go to work but hey, trying to keep it positive lol. Hope you all had a fab weekend full of exciting and i hope you all smash it this week!
I've been really quiet on here lately, Just been going through a couple things and i really needed to stay off social media. But i'm back for now and only thinking positive thoughts and working towards the future.
Today i'm sharing my thoughts on the Morgan Taylor Thrill of the Chill winter range – well the mini one. I love that Morgan Taylor sells mini's of the full ranges, Just wish they had all 6 colours in the mini packs.
My Main Freeze is a pale off white cream shade. Its an easy to use formula, its has full opaque with 2 coats.
Angling For A Kiss is a bright cherry red, I wasn't sold on the formula when i first swatched its like a gel in the sense thats a very watery clear type but with 3 good coats you get full opacity, Its a beautiful colour.
Lets Kiss & Warm Up is a deep plum creme colour that is my favourite of the range, I am a sucker for plums/maroons/burgundies. It was the 1st colour i wore – and i wore it for a week before trying another colour. It has excellent opacity after 2 thin coats and a great formula.
The other 2 colours in the full range are Don't Let The Frost Bite! – a beautiful grape purple shade and Caviar On Ice – a chocolate taupy colour – not a big fan of this colour.

Football supporters going to see their teams play can experience a degree of regulation and control that few others encounter, outside of an airport.
From "bubble matches" forcing visiting fans to travel in designated coaches leaving from their own club's stadium, to Football Banning Orders for fans who've never been convicted of a crime, to Section 27 of the Violent Crime Reduction Act which allows police to remove someone from a particular area - even if no offence has been committed, fans seem to be singled out, particularly those who follow their side away from home.
Despite this, fans rarely feature in civil liberty campaigns. So is it time to stand up for football fans' freedom of movement, speech, and fair treatment under the law? Or are these measures necessary to prevent a return to the "bad old days"? Are fans singled out because of prejudices relating to football's working class roots? What can be done to allow the law-abiding majority to enjoy their sport, without being made to feel like criminals?

DMK MP Kanimozhi's hopes of winning freedom from jail in the 2G spectrum allocation scam were dashed on Monday as the Supreme Court dismissed her bail plea along with that of co-accused Kalaignar TV managing Director Sharad Kumar.
Rejecting their pleas on Monday, a special bench of justices G S Singhvi and B S Chauhan, however, left a window of hope for them saying that they can approach the trial court for regular bail after the framing of charges against them in the scam.Monday's stipulation by the apex court virtually puts a bar on grant of bail not only to her but also to the other high-profile accused, including former Telecom Minister A Raja and several senior corporate executives, till the framing of charges in the case, which may take a few months.
The apex court order came as a surprise for the lawyers and the family members of the two accused as they were hopeful of getting relief from the bench which appeared receptive to their pleas for bail during the 90-minute hearing.
The arguments were heard from 10.30 am to 12 noon and the court reserved the orders for 12.30 pm, which it delivered.
During the arguments, Kanimozhi pleaded to the court that she is a mother and she should not be denied the company of her child.
She said she was ready to accept and abide by any condition that might be imposed upon her by the court for grant of bail.
The arguments, however, did not eventually convince the court which dismissed her bail plea but gave liberty to her to approach the trial court under Section 437 of the CrPC after framing of charges in the case.
Kanimozhi, DMK chief M Karunanidhi's 43-year-old daughter, has been in jail exactly for a month now bail before and her bail petition was rejected first by the special CBI court and then by the Delhi High Court.
The Rajya Sabha member and Kumar have been accused by the CBI of being involved in the illegal transaction of Rs 200 crore to Kalaignar TV.
Opposing the bail plea, the CBI contended that Kanimozhi and Kumar were key conspirators and Rs 200 crore transferred to Kalaignar TV was part of the "bribe" amount and not a loan as claimed by the accused.
It submitted the special CBI court and later the Delhi High Court had carefully evaluated material evidence and other factors to refuse bail to them.
The apex court had on 13th June agreed to hear their bail plea and asked CBI to explain where the Rs 200 crore, allegedly diverted to DMK-owned Kalaignar TV in 2G scam, has gone and also to file a response on their bail pleas in a week's time.
The court had also asked CBI to come out with a status report on the loss to the state exchequer due to the award of 13 licences to one of the telecom operators and trial proceedings in the CBI special court.
Kanimozhi and Kumar had moved the apex court seeking bail on 10th June challenging the Delhi High Court verdict that rejected their bail on the ground that they have strong political connections and the possibility of them influencing witnesses cannot be ruled out.
Earlier two judges — P Sathasivam and A K Patnaik — before whom the matter was listed had recused themselves from the high-profile case.
Instead, Justice Singhvi, whose bench has been monitoring the case, held a special hearing along with Justice B S Chauhan to decide on the bail..
