Stars including Beyoncé, Alicia Keys, Christina Aguilera and Jimmy Kimmel joined the family and friends of the late NBA legend Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna at a celebration of their lives at Los Angeles' Staples Center on Monday.
Forty-one-year-old Kobe Bryant, his 13-year-old daughter Gianna or 'Gigi' and seven other people were killed in a helicopter crash in California on January 26.
Monday's public memorial at the home of his former team the Los Angeles Lakers opened with Beyoncé - wearing Lakers' gold - performing her track XO.
"I'm here because I love Kobe and this was one of his favourite songs," she told those in attendance, many of whom were dressed in purple - another one of the Lakers' colours. She then proceeded to sing Halo before taking her seat behind Kobe Bryant's widow and Gianna's mother Vanessa, whom she comforted throughout.

In her tribute, Vanessa Bryant said: "I couldn't see him as a celebrity, nor just an incredible basketball player. He was my sweet husband and the beautiful father of our children. He was my - he was my everything."
She said her late husband was "the kind of man that wanted to teach the future generations to be better and keep them from making his own mistakes".

"Gigi was motivated to change the way everyone viewed women in sports," she said of her daughter. "She wrote papers in school defending women and wrote about how the unequal pay difference for the NBA [National Basketball Association] and WNBA [Women's National Basketball Association] leagues wasn't fair."
"Gigi would have most likely become the best player in the WNBA," Vanessa Bryant told the audience to huge applause.
Talk show host Jimmy Kimmel paid a tearful tribute to father and daughter, with basketball icons Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant's former Lakers teammate Shaquille O'Neal also delivering emotional eulogies.
"It seems to me that all we can do is be grateful for the time we had with them and for the time we have left with each other," Kimmel said.

Dressed in purple, Alicia Keys performed Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata on a purple piano. It is reported that Kobe Bryant once learned to play the piece by ear for his wife.

X-COM: Terror From The Deep
RARE English Big Box including Strategy Guide!
A vast sleeping enemy has awakened. When the colonization vessel crash landed on Earth some 65 million years ago, the emergency systems placed the aliens in suspended animation. A distress call was sent, but was never received by the aliens' homeworld. Over the eons the computers awakened small groups of aliens to attempt colonization, but the strategies and devices were imperfect. The aliens have also sunken ships, destroyed planes and devastated remote ports over the centuries — to what end we know not.
Now, deep in the vast hulk of the mother ship the battle computers have become fully online. The systematic awakening of the aliens and their technology has begun. Across the globe are sites where age-old alien advance assault squads have been attempting to contact their distant brothers. The sites contain powerful artifacts that they need to conquer the planet and transform it into an aquatic paradise for aliens.
X-COM: Terror From The Deep puts you in command of X-COM. You control the force to stop the alien terror. First, you'll intercept the alien subs and shoot them down. Then, you'll command a sub-aqua mission using the 'Battlescape' display. This view will display only what your aquanauts can see, allowing danger to creep up on the unsuspecting.
Successfully completing Alien Submarine Assault missions allows X-COM scientists to clear the sites of artifacts and begin researching alien technology. On completion, Engineers can reproduce superior weapons to better attack subs. Soon you will be fighting the aliens with their own technology. A special UFOpaedia will contain all the information gathered from your missions.

Q: Where is the domain mapped to app routers? const express = require('express');
const router = express.Router();

router.get('/specialRoute', function (req, res, next) {
     // route is now http://domain:3000/route/specialRoute
});

router.get('/', function (req, res, next) {
    // route is now http://domain:3000
});

module.exports = router;

However, where is the 'domain' mapped to '/' ? In other words, where is the logic to route 'http://domain:3000' ->   router.get('/',

A: An express.Router is not an express application (which is what is used for said binding).
Usually the mapping defaults to localhost because you assign a domain name to an IP and the DNS does the wiring.
If you look at Express's listen documentation on devdocs you'd see that you can pass a host as a second parameter : app.listen(80, "mywebsite");

A: If you want to map a router to the root ("the domain") you first need an express application:
const app = express();

Then, use the router:
app.use(router);

To make it even neater: Express apps themselves are instances of Router so if you replace router.get with app.get it will be functionally the same.
The reason you would want to create a new Router and export it would be to have multiple router modules and then require them from a main file like this:
const express = require("express");
const app = express();
app.use("/shop", require("./path-to-your-shop-router.js"));

Also, don't forget to make the server listen so you can visit it on your computer:
// Ports <1024 are usually restricted
app.listen(3000);

New Book: "European Revolutions and the Ottoman Balkans"
European Revolutions and the Ottoman Balkans: Nationalism, Violence and Empire in the Long Nineteenth-Century edited by Dimitris Stamatopoulos
"About European Revolutions and the Ottoman Balkans
The emergence of the Balkan national states in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries has long been viewed through an Orientalist lens, and their birth and evolution traditionally seen by scholars as the effect of the Ottoman Empire's decline. As a result, the role played by the great European revolutions, wars and intellectual developments is often neglected.
Rejecting these traditional Orientalist narratives, this work examines Balkan nationalist movements within their broader European historical contexts. Drawing on a range of unused archival research and ranging from the Napoleonic era to the Bolshevik Revolution, contributors variously consider the complex roles played by Europe's internal geo-political ruptures in forming the Balkan states, and demonstrate how the Balkan intelligentsia drew inspiration from, and interacted with, contemporary European thought. Shedding light onto the strong intellectual, political and military interconnections between the regions, this is essential reading for all those studying Balkan and European history, as well as anyone interested in the question of national identity."

CareerBuilder recently surveyed hundreds of different employers, asking which interview mistakes were their biggest pet peeves. Not surprisingly, most of these things were considered "the little things"—but as we all know, there's a reason why they say it's the little things that matter.
Yawn! Interviews are so boring! Wow, 63 percent is a lot! While most people are undoubtedly more nervous than bored or cocky, some of the same body language tip-offs occur for both emotions. A nervous person may tap their toes repeatedly, swing their feet, or drum their fingers. Unfortunately, these signals also say "I'm soooo bored" to an employer. Boredom is also frequently interpreted as cockiness.
The Cure: Practice, practice, practice! A calm, unstressed, and interested person's breathing is slow and steady (this may actually prove to help you get rid of the jitters, too.) Take relatively deep breaths (not the yoga class kind—you don't want to scare the employer away) and pay attention to where your arms are. Let them rest on the arms of the chair you're in and keep both feet on the floor, knees together, to minimize foot tapping. Leaning forward slightly can help show that you're interested.
For the seasoned workforce, dressing professionally may seem like a no brainer, but all too often the graduate fresh from college has lost touch with what is expected in today's workplace. Wearing flip-flops, jeans, or basically anything but a suit says you don't take the interviewer seriously.
The Cure: Just wear a suit. You'll almost never go wrong! If you want to give it more pizazz and you're applying for an artsy or creative job, dress it up with some bright or funky accessories. However, if you're interviewing in a more formal environment like banking or law, keep your accessories very minimal.
So … you didn't Google search the company before you came for the interview. Big mistake. Not only do you not know what they're selling, but you're showing 1) ignorance, 2) laziness, and 3) lack of initiative.
The Cure: Use Google, LinkedIn, and every possible search word and key term that you think will dig up some results. Look through profiles and press releases—you'd be surprised what you'll find! You'll impress the interviewer, and you might learn some interesting things about the company and the employees that work there in the process that you wouldn't ordinarily learn from a quick tour of the office on day one of your new job.
We know you don't like to be disconnected from Facebook for even a minute, but do yourself a favor and cut the ties. Turning off your phone limits distractions and will eliminate your embarrassment in the event your "Baby Got Back" ringtone starts buzzing.
The Cure: Just leave your phone off and stowed away. There's nothing that can't wait until after the interview.
Most people know that you're supposed to ask questions during the interview, but not all know what kinds of questions to ask. Asking what kind of perks you'll get, what your salary will be, and related questions won't endear you to the interviewer.
The Cure: Ask questions about the work you'll be doing. Ask the interviewer what are her favorite things about that company. There are many possibilities.
Perhaps the most effective question to ask is: "What do you think my biggest challenge would be in this position?" This is the ace of interview questions for two reasons. First, it makes the interviewer think that you are very interesting in finding out how you would or would not be a good fit for a job. That is, it dispels the notion that you are just looking for any job. Second, it makes the interviewer tell you what qualms he or she has about hiring you. By discovering that resistance in the interview, you can overcome it then and there and increase your chances of getting the job.
We're all interested in it—after all, if we didn't need money, we wouldn't be interviewing in the first place, right? Wrong. Finding a job and a career that you love should be about more than the money, and the interviewer knows that. He wants a candidate that isn't counting their chickens before they hatch.
The Cure: Keep those burning salary questions at bay by really trying to avoid discussing pay until the interviewer brings it up.
Copying your resume and cover letter a million times and saturating the market is not the best way to land a job you love. Actually, you probably won't even land a job you like with that technique. And judging from the number of employers who report this problem, you're probably not getting away with your little trick.
The Cure: Keep your resume and, more importantly, your cover letter, tailored to the jobs you think look the most interesting. You'll waste less time by concentrating your efforts to land a job that really fits what you want and you'll likely get better responses, too.
Enough said. Don't give a potential employer a reason to doubt your credibility. Sites like Myspace and Facebook are just too big to keep your crazy St. Patrick's Day antics a secret.
The Cure: Untag, delete, and ask your friends to do the same. If you doubt that this really has any impact, you should read Social Networking and Your Job: Lessons from the Cisco Fatty: the story of a poor soul who actually got hired, then got fired immediately for something he said on the Internet.
With the majority of companies using the internet to find and hire new employees, a simple email can go a long way after an interview and in most cases has replaced the traditional paper card.
The Cure: A quick email to your interviewer doesn't take a lot of effort and it's really worth your time. Doing it immediately after the interview will help you remember, too—or you can set a reminder on your phone when you turn it back on afterward. Just letting someone know that you appreciate their time speaks volumes about you.

Winter 2020 — Market Your Work to Contests & Agents

" Too often writers submit to agents and editors without having any credentials, but winning a writing competition—especially a well-known one—gives you immediate credibility and something to add to your writing resume."

Ida J. Lewenstein says
I am an author of six, well illustrated, Children's Books all in rhyme. At the moment they are all SELF- PUBLISHED and going nowhere. I am seeking a publisher who will distribute my well-crafted books. In the meantime, Books, Inc. likes my books and has invited me to read some of them at their children's hour in February. Hopefully, some publisher's representative will be there, but who knows. I would appreciate your help in finding me a publisher. Ida J. Lewenstein
B. Lynn Goodwin says
I suggest you look at the agents on the list and see if any are seeking children's books. You might also try https://literaryagencies.com/literary-agents-childrens-books/ and /or https://www.tckpublishing.com/childrens-book-literary-agents/, though I didn't see a date on this one.
I hope these suggestions are helpful to you. Thanks for asking.

Q: Integral involving exponential and power I have bumped into the following integral, which Mathematica is apparently not able to solve. I have tried a couple of change of variables and a series expansion for $x$ close to $1$, but without much success. I am interested in a closed-form solution if existent: it doesn't look as harmful as it might turn out to be, though...
$$
I(c,\xi)=\int_1^\infty\mathrm{d}x\ \mathrm{e}^{-cx}x^{\frac{\xi -1}{\xi }} \left(x^{1/\xi }-1\right)^{\xi }\ ,
$$
for $c,\xi>0$ (and $\xi$ not an integer in general). Thanks for your help folks.

A: Hint:
For integer $\xi$,
$$\left(x^{1/\xi}-1\right)^\xi=\sum_{k=0}^\xi\binom \xi k(-1)^kx^{k/\xi}$$
so that
$$I(c,\xi)=\sum_{k=0}^\xi\binom \xi k(-1)^kc^{-(k-1)/\xi-1}\Gamma\left(\frac{k-1}\xi+2,c\right).$$
You can't generalize to fractional $\xi$ because of the summation, but interpolation on $\xi$ might yield good approximations.

A: The case $\xi=1/2$ can be solved in terms of modified Bessel- and Struvefunctions. For a proof rewrite $x=\cosh(t)$ so that
$$
I(c,\frac{1}2)=\int_0^{\infty}dte^{-c \cosh(t)}\frac{\sinh^2(t)}{\cosh(t)}=\int_0^{\infty}dte^{-c \cosh(t)}\cosh(t)-\int_0^{\infty}dte^{-c \cosh(t)}\frac{1}{\cosh(t)}
$$
According to DMLF 10.32.9 we can rewrite this as
$$
I(c,\frac{1}2)=K_1(c)+\int dc K_0(c)
$$
the last integral equals (10.43.1 of DMLF) a combination of modified Bessel functions $K_{\nu}(z)$ and modified Struve functions $L_{\mu
}(z)$. We obtain
$$
I(c,\frac{1}2)=K_1(c)+\frac{1}{2}\pi c (L_{-1
}(c)K_{0}(c)+L_{0
}(c)K_{1}(c))+C
$$
Because $I(\infty,\xi)=0$ and $K_1(\infty) =0$ as well as $\lim_{c\rightarrow\infty} c (L_{-1
}(c)K_{0}(c)+L_{0
}(c)K_{1}(c))=1$ we have $C=-\frac{\pi}{2}$ and finally
$$
I(c,\frac{1}2)=K_1(c)+\frac{1}{2}\pi c (L_{-1
}(c)K_{0}(c)+L_{0
}(c)K_{1}(c))-\frac{\pi}{2}
$$
I suspect that this method can't be generalized to other non-integer values of $\xi$ but maybe i'm wrong..


For the past 2-3 weeks I have spent many hours in the field here in Connecticut scouring fields and thickets for rare birds, particularly for western vagrants. Other than a hybrid gull and a few interesting juncos, I haven't found much of note while birding.
Last Thursday, a rainy and dreary day, found me running errands instead of birding. I brought my bins and camera bag along with me since I knew I would be passing a few fields and ponds worth checking for geese. After picking up some apples and donuts at a farm store, I casually checked a blackbird flock and immediately stumbled upon a YELLOW-HEADED BLACKBIRD.
Dumb luck struck again today. I had a bit of time before I had to meet my father in Norwalk to winterize his boat, so I decided to stop into Seaside Park in Bridgeport to catch some bait for fishing later this month. While driving I glanced into the small horse pen at the park's entrance and noticed a CATTLE EGRET underneath one of the horses. No photos as I was without my camera, and the bird flew within a minute of spotting it anyway.
So there you go. Nothing earth shatteringly rare, but two very good birds for the state while "not birding." I can count on one hand how many individuals of each of those species I have seen in CT (keep in mind I do not year-list, so I rarely chase local birds).
Overall, as we reach the midpoint of November, the rarity season has been a bit slow. Other than a Painted Bunting in Stamford, no true megas. A Barnacle Goose probably ranks as the second rarest bird of the month so far. There have been some good lingering birds and some very scarce species seen too (Lark Sparrow, Western Kingbird, and the two species noted above).
Regionally, there was a great flurry of rarities from surrounding states at the beginning of the month, but this past week was quieter. Still, a Smith's Longspur in MA and a Couch's Kingbird in MD remind us that November is the best month for rarities in these parts. It pays to be in the field looking.
There is plenty of time yet, but one has to wonder what the current (and forecast to be prolonged) unseasonable cold spell will do to any lingering insectivores.
Is it too late for Cave Swallows?

Blighter
Blighter - preventing the malicious use of drones
Blighter, a company that provides radars, counter-drone solutions and integration software to clients including the UK's Ministry of Defence and the US's Department of Defense, has secured a significant growth capital loan from BOOST&Co after adapting its sophisticated equipment for use in the commercial world.
The Saffron Walden-based firm, which also supplies the South Korean government with products that are used to control the country's border with North Korea, is one of the few specialist providers that can detect consumer drones with the accuracy required by businesses such as airports, nuclear power stations and oil- and gas-processing plants, paving the way to a wider client base.
Shining example of UK tech success
"Drones are great for surveillance, aerial photography and searching for missing people, but they can be dangerous in the wrong hands," says BOOST&Co's London-based principal Kim Martin, who led the deal. "Blighter has developed an excellent reputation and is extremely well-placed to supply a neat solution to problems such as the rogue drones that brought Gatwick airport to a standstill in December 2018."
Some of the funding will be used to improve Blighter's supply chain, enabling the company to shorten the lead times for its products by buying more modules with long lead-times, to hold in stock. It carries out manufacturing and assembly in the UK, and has the capability to localise the final assembly of products where markets require. "Blighter is a really good example of the UK being at the forefront of developments in engineering design and technology," Martin says.

The second day of skiing was super cloudy with not much sun at all. But it had snowed over night and the snow conditions on the slopes were even better than the day before. It was a bit colder so I decided to wear 4 layers instead of two. After a couple of hours of skiing we headed to L'Anfionne and all had hot chocolate – so good, especially the ones that came with a shot :) Later during the day, Paul, Michael and I decided to take the black piste that looked so pretty from the lift.. it was very pretty but much more exhausting than I thought.
Doesn't it look so cute and idyllic? It must be so nice to spend Christmas here. Especially if you are usually used to rainy instead of white Christmas..
Hot Chocolate on the Slopes..
The first day of skiing in Les Carroz was superb. We had close to perfect snow, sunshine non-stop, not a single cloud, and it was nicely cold. Paul learnt skiing as a child which you can see the minute he starts racing down the slopes. The dynamics of our ski group worked perfectly: I love to go fast but my knees need frequent breaks (and my technique is far from perfect). This way I could relax for a minute each time when we were waiting for everyone to catch up.
I usually go skiing around April so that the days are a bit longer and it's not so freezing cold. Yet going skiing in winter means that you can ski during sunset which was super beautiful. I didn't bring my camera on the first day and only had the GoPro with me. I haven't checked the videos yet but I hope there will be some sunset material. I did bring my camera the next day when, of course, the sun entirely disappeared and it was foggy and snowing. What a timing!
Rio de Janeiro has long been considered one of the world's most visually striking cities. And in 2016 much of the world got a sense of its spirit and character as well, while we all tuned in to watch the Summer Olympics take place there. It's probably fair to say Rio is as hot a tourist destination as ever – likely making it onto many international travelers' long-term bucket lists.
Beyond picking out a destination, however, it's also important to plot out what you might get up to once you're there. So given the city's general appeal and trendiness of late, here's our travel bucket list specifically for Rio.
Chances are that when you picture Rio de Janeiro in your mind, you see Christ the Redeemer towering over the city. Built on a hill, this statue of Jesus Christ is a legitimate wonder of the world, and it draws huge numbers of tourists ever year. The statues is incredible no matter where you happen to glimpse it from, but seeing it up close is particularly special. There are three options for how to visit, which are helpful to know about when you're in town. You can take the cog train, ride in a van, or take a hike, which is a fairly long one but not too strenuous. Whatever you decide on, the statue is something to behold up close.
The other landmarks that dominate Rio's landscape are the high, rounded mountains that tower over the harbor. Sugarloaf is the highest of them, and you can reach the summit by taking multiple cable car rides. The first is from the Red Beach to Urca Hill, and the second takes you through the air from Urca Hill to the top of Sugarloaf Mountain (which is nearly six football fields above sea level, to give you some idea of what to expect). The ride itself is a treat, and the views from the top are excellent.
Copacabana is the most famous of Rio's several beaches, known for its sheer size, the crowds that flock to it, and the party-like atmosphere that can dominate the landscape. Realistically the reputation is somewhat overblown; it's not as if there's a nonstop party happening there. Nevertheless, it's fun to stroll on the beach, hang out for a while, and generally take part in the buzz that's always present. It's one of the most active and enjoyable beaches on the planet.
One could argue that dance is Rio's greatest export. The city (and really all of Brazil) is known for samba, and is continually spreading it to world. It's not hard to find samba clubs in other big cities, or even samba scenes in movies or on TV. Rio's dance scene has also served as inspiration for a video game online: "Dancing in Rio," a slot that "encourages you to keep the party alive" by playing upbeat music and showing animated images reminiscent of a great samba club. It's really part of the city's culture, in other words, so why not make it a priority to see it in person? You'll have plenty of options, but Rio Scenarium is certainly among the top samba clubs in town – a 2,000-person club with three floors, live music, and ample space to watch or participate as you desire.
The botanical gardens in Rio, sometimes called Jardim Botanico, comprise well over 300 acres of space, and is essentially a wild collection of native plants. It's quite something to walk through and gives you a nice taste of Brazil's natural beauty, even in close proximity to Rio. As another general point of interest, Albert Einstein himself once toured these very same gardens.
There's a lot of excellent food in Brazil, and particularly in bigger cities there's multicultural influence that can keep you on your toes. In Rio for instance you'll actually find a fair amount of Spanish preparation and paella in popular restaurants. Azur is a little bit more local, however. Located right on the beach and run by chef Pedro Artagao (who has a terrific reputation in town), Azur was written up as one of the hottest new restaurants to try just last year. It's an a la carte bar/restaurant combining local seafood with a range of different preparations.
Rio is also home to a lot of excellent smaller cafés and coffee bars, so it's worth pointing to one of these as well. CoLAB actually made it onto the same list that recommended Azur. It's part coffee shop, part bar, and part snack shack, with menu offerings ranging from kombucha and tea to beer, with cinnamon rolls and falafel for good measure. The atmosphere is described ad "Brooklynesque," which basically means it's trendy and inviting without being over the top.
It may sound cheesy, and it's not a specific attraction or activity, but Rio has some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world. Make sure you're in a good position to see one before your trip comes to an end!


The amount of antibiotics used to keep pigs from getting sick now rivals the amount consumed by humans – without evidence the pigs are getting healthier, according to a report released this week.
The Natural Resources Defense Council report is an in-depth look at antibiotics in the pork industry and the consequences for human and animal health. The study found that roughly 27 percent of medically important antibiotics are sold for pork production, compared with 27.6 percent for treating humans.
NRDC senior health officer David Wallinga said the widespread practice of feeding antibiotics to pigs that aren't sick in hopes of preventing disease isn't working.
Wallinga said diseases such as E-coli infections, pneumonia and meningitis are more prevalent in pigs today than they were in 2000. He said the group timed its report to coincide with the World Pork Expo today in Des Moines, asking U.S. pork producers to end routine antibiotic overuse.
Denmark and the Netherlands, which together produce about as many pigs as Iowa, have cut their antibiotic use in hog production by 27 percent and 57 percent, respectively, Wallinga said. They've replaced the drugs with more frequent cleaning, improved ventilation and less cramped quarters. Wallinga said he believes the United States should do the same – and not only for the animals.
It's estimated that more than 2 million Americans suffer antibiotic-resistant infections each year, and at least 23,000 die as a result. The "Better Bacon" report is online at nrdc.org.

Perth Zoo is one of the world's leading conservation zoos, supporting local, regional and international projects designed to conserve species in the wild. Perth Zoo features one of Australia's finest collection of native animals and a diverse collection of exotic species. It is a 41-acre zoo that opened in 1898 in South Perth. It is home to 1258 animals of 164 species and includes an extensive botanical collection.
The zoo has three main zones - Australian Walkabout, Asian Rainforest and African Savannah - with a few minor exhibit areas (Lesser Primates, South American birds, Main Lake, Galapagos Tortoises). All exhibits are designed to mimic the animals' natural habitats and utilise passive barriers where possible.
On this workshop, we custom tailor our tuition for those travellers, photographers and wildlife lovers wanting to photograph certain wildlife. For instance may Perth residents want to shoot in the African Savannah section with its African Painted Dogs, African lions, Cheetahs, Grant's Zebras, Hamadryas Baboons, Meerkats, Radiated tortoises, Rothschild's Giraffes, Spotted Hyaenas and Southern White Rhinoceroses.


Nortel (also known as Nortel Norstar or Meridian Phone Systems) customers are facing a crossroads and must begin making decisions about their future. The world of telephony is overwhelming and many leaving Nortel Networks and BCM 50 are unsure which direction to move. The decision is made a little easier by Life After Nortel: SMB Migration Roadmap and Buying Decision Checklist from Ziff Davis.
The whitepaper from Ziff Davis lays out several options and roadmaps and encourages companies to take the initiative to make a decision before their competition gets ahead of them. The move from TDM to VoIP may be intimidating but it is necessary and ultimately beneficial.
If your company is satisfied with its current system and is still reaping the benefits from its initial investment with Nortel, it could stay on board for another year. Avaya will continue supporting Nortel customers until October 2015. However, keep in mind that the competition is beginning to make the move to VoIP and will be leaps and bounds ahead a year from now.
Avaya promises a seamless move to their VoIP system for current Nortel customers. The move would be relatively painless and your company would not lose its support system along the way. Avaya is big and has a good reputation; making it a viable option for your company. But as long as your company is going through a migration, consider all of your options.
