Q: TimeSpan still not working Heres the code I have re arranged, but still have same problem, not able to find my start and end times on last page? How do I do this?
public void start()
    {
        DateTime startTime = DateTime.Now;
    }

    protected void btnStart_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        start();
        Response.Redirect("~/end.aspx");
    }

public void end()
    {
        DateTime endTime = DateTime.Now;
    }
    protected void btnEnd_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        end();
        Response.Redirect("~/display.aspx");
    }

public partial class display : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        TimeSpan timeSpent = endTime - startTime;

        lblDisplay.Text = string.Format("Time: {0}", timeSpent);
    }
}

Now can anyone help me on this? Should I use session, if I should, how do I use it with datetime and timespan, etc. Thanks!

A: Problem : You are declaring your startTime and endTime variables inside the functions as below:
public void start()
{
    DateTime startTime = DateTime.Now; //remove the declartion from here
}

public void end()
{
    DateTime startTime = DateTime.Now; //remove the declaration from here
}

Solution : Declare your startTime and endTime variables as class variables and then assign the values in the start() and end() functions.
Try This:
DateTime startTime; //declare here
DateTime endTime;   //declare here

public void start()
{
    startTime = DateTime.Now; //assign value here
}
public void end()
{
    endTime = DateTime.Now;  //assign value here
}

House Democrats Succeed in Reversing Anti-LGBT Attack On Rights for Federal Contractors
May 26, 2016 Featured, Gay News Domestic & U.S. PoliticsHouse Democrats Succeed in Reversing Anti-LGBT Attack On Rights for Federal Contractors, LGBT Federal Contractor Anti-Discrimination Executive Order, politics, Rep. Sean Patrick MaloneyWill Kohler
After a strong pushback by Democrats the GOP controlled House of Representatives reversed itself late Wednesday and approved a measure aimed at upholding an executive order that bars discrimination against LGBT employees by federal contractors.
More than 40 Republicans helped Democrats power the gay rights measure over the opposition of GOP conservatives who dominate the chamber.
Conservatives did prevail in a separate vote designed to make sure federal funding isn't taken away from the state of North Carolina over its controversial bathroom law for transgender people.
Wednesday night's 223-195 tally reverses a vote last week on the gay rights measure. Then, GOP leaders twisted arms to defeat the legislation, causing several supporters to switch their vote, leading Democrats to erupt in protest.
Openly gay and fierce LGBT advocate New York Democrat Sean Patrick Maloney returned to attach the measure to a funding bill for the Energy Department.
This time, GOP leaders let members vote as they wished; about a dozen Republicans, including several from California, rethought their opposition and Maloney's amendment made it through fairly easily.
It would prohibit agencies funded by the bill to award taxpayer dollars to federal contractors that violate President Barack Obama's executive order barring discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people.
"It says you do not take taxpayer dollars and fire people just for being gay," Maloney said.
Maloney said last week's vote "snatched discrimination from the jaws of equality."
Earlier, the House voted 227-192 to block several federal agencies from retaliating against North Carolina over its law requiring transgender people to use the bathroom of their original sex.
That amendment, by Robert Pittenger, R-N.C., came in response to warnings from the Obama administration that it may take federal funding away from North Carolina in response to the state law that blocks certain protections for gay people.
"The President and his emissaries have stated … that funds should not be dispensed to North Carolina until North Carolina is coerced into complying with the legal beliefs of the President, and his political views," Pittenger said. "This is an egregious abuse of executive power."
The North Carolina law was passed after Charlotte passed an ordinance allowing transgender people to use restrooms of their chosen gender identity. The state law went further to take away federal protections for gays, putting the state at risk of losing a variety of federal funds.
Top House Democrat Nancy Pelosi of California blasted Republicans as favoring discrimination against gays.
"Republicans overwhelmingly voted to support … the hateful and discriminatory state law in North Carolina, and to enable anti-LGBT bigotry across our country," Pelosi said in a statement. "History will not look kindly on the votes Republicans proudly took to target Americans because of whom they are or whom they love."

Government and Politics in the United States
by Essay Pro | posted in: Research Paper | 0
The First Amendment provides for freedom of religion, speech, press, and assembly. These protections of individual freedoms may conflict with the need for order—an example of the original dilemma of government discussed in Chapter 1. Freedom of religion is guaranteed in two clauses. The first, the establishment clause, forbids any law that would create an official religion; the second, the freeexercise clause, prevents the government from interfering with the practice of religion. The establishment clause erected "a wall of separation between church and state." The government is also supposed to be neutral between religions and between the religious and the nonreligious. On certain issues, such as government aid to church-related schools, the Supreme Court has allowed what opponents have seen as violations of the establishment clause. Reasoning that textbook loans and transportation are aids to students, not churches, the Court has allowed some support to church schools.
In 1971, the Lemon test put forth guidelines for determining constitutionality under the establishment clause. The Court loosened its application of the Lemon test by allowing public school teachers to provide government-mandated classes to disadvantaged youngsters in New York parochial schools. A 2002 decision upholding school voucher programs further weakened the standards outlined in Lemon. The Supreme Court has also relaxed restrictions on the use of public funding for Christmas displays. On the issue of school prayer, however, the Court has maintained a consistent position that public school prayer violates the establishment clause. In 2000, the Supreme Court struck down the practice of organized student-led prayer at public high school football games. The free-exercise clause also gives rise to conflicts when the practice of a certain religion leads a person to do what is forbidden by law or to refuse to do what is required by law. A person may not be forced to take a job that requires him or her to work on the Sabbath, but the Court has forbidden participation in traditional religious rituals that involve the use of illegal drugs. The Court reasoned that religious beliefs are inviolate, but antisocial actions in the name of religion are not protected by the Constitution. The perceived narrowing of the range of free expression of religion led Congress to pass the Religious Freedom Restoration Act that required the government to meet strict scrutiny before interfering with religious practices. The Court quickly ruled the popular act unconstitutional, noting that Congress could not change the Constitution.
Freedom of expression, including freedom of speech and freedom of the press, provides a right to unrestricted discussion of public affairs, yet these rights have never been absolute. Initially, the First Amendment clauses seemed aimed at preventing prior restraint. As the First Amendment speech doctrines developed, justices argued that speech creating a "clear and present danger" may be limited. "Symbolic speech" and "fighting words" may receive even less protection, though the Supreme Court has ruled that flag burning is a constitutionally protected form of expression. Obscenity—although hard to define—is not protected by the Constitution, and the Court agreed that the government can regulate distribution of obscene materials. Yet, the Court has also affirmed broad latitude for freedom of speech in cyberspace. In 1999, a federal court issued a permanent injunction closing a website of some antiabortion advocates who threatened doctors performing abortions.
Freedom of the press, including the ability to collect and report information without government interference, is crucial in a free society. Print media defend this freedom as absolute, although electronic media have had to accept some government regulation. Individuals may sue the media for libel, but public figures must show that there is actual malice involved when publishers print false statements about them. Basically, freedom of the press means freedom from prior restraint. The Court has been reluctant to limit freedom of the press in order to ensure a fair trial. However, reporters are not protected from the demands of law enforcement and may be required to reveal their sources. Only in the most extreme and compelling cases has prior restraint been considered justified, as, for example, when publishing certain material might mean nuclear annihilation.
The First Amendment also provides the right to peaceably assemble and to petition the government for redress of grievances. This right has merged with freedom of speech and freedom of the press under the general heading of freedom of expression.
The Right to Bear Arms
The Second Amendment's guarantee of the right to keep and bear arms is a source of great controversy. Advocates of gun control see the guarantee as a collective one, centered on the right of states to maintain militias. Opponents of gun control argue that the amendment protects the individual's right to own guns.
Applying the Bill of Rights to the States
The Bill of Rights was created to put limits on the power of the national government. Initially, its provisions did not apply to states. Under the Fourteenth Amendment, however, nearly all of the items in
Bill of Rights have gradually been extended to all levels of government. The Fourteenth Amendment guarantees people due process of law. The Court has interpreted this provision to mean that, in criminal proceedings, defendants in both state and national cases must be told about their constitutional rights, including their right to remain silent and their right to an attorney. The Court still allows jury size in trials to vary from state to state, however. The right to an attorney is considered fundamental, while the right to trial by a jury of a certain size is not. In one of the important cases of 2000, the court reaffirmed that Miranda had a constitutional rule, which Congress could not undermine through legislation. The Fourth Amendment provides people with freedom from unreasonable searches and seizures. The exclusionary rule, which disallows the use of evidence obtained illegally, helps to ensure this right, though this rule has been weakened in recent years. Interpretation of the exclusionary rule continues to divide the Court and serves as an example of the conflict between freedom and order.
The Ninth Amendment and Personal Autonomy
The Ninth Amendment left open the possibility that there were other rights, not enumerated, that might also be free from government interference. In the 1960s and 1970s, the Supreme Court used the Ninth Amendment as the basis for asserting that people have a right to privacy and that that right allows individuals to make their own choices about birth control and abortion. The appointment of conservative justices under Presidents Reagan, G. H. W. Bush, and G. W. Bush placed gay rights and abortion rights in question, but President Clinton's more liberal appointees seem more likely to support those unenumerated rights.
Constitutionalizing Public Policies
The discovery of new rights under the Ninth Amendment creates a difficulty for democracy. It removes questions about value conflicts from the arena of democratic politics and puts them under the
Essential Facts and Information you need to learn for our tests and assignments;
Civil Liberties are in the bill of rights, the first 10 amendments to the constitution. These are known as negative freedoms. The negative part means that the government, national , state, and local cannot lesson rights that you have ,which are specified in the bill of rights. In other words they cannot take them away without a valid reason. The court allows the government from time to time to limit rights but they must have reasonable grounds for doing this. There must be a rational state purpose for these restrictions. You have the right to free speech, freedom of association, religious rights, a free press, privacy rights, trial rights, and many other rights enumerated in the bill of rights and further defined by the Supreme court. These rights have been defined by the courts throughout are long judicial history. read this link to examine the full range of rights you have in the bill of rightsThe Bill Of Rights
History of Civil Liberties- From the founding of our country we had dual rights. This means that you had protections from state power that were different from protections from national power. This means that if you were living in 1845 in Minnesota your rights were protected from state law. If you published a newspaper according to state law they could censor your publication if you wrote articles that were libelous or if you made untrue statements about public officials. The US constitution allows publishers to publish without any censorship. But this is the problem , the US constitution did not apply to state publishers . The prior restraint clause applied only to National Laws. The US government did not pass this Minnesota Law restricting publications , so the constitution was not applicable in this case. So the national government had restrictions on their laws and state governments had a different set of restrictions on their laws under their respective constitutions.
Selective Incorporation- Something happened to change the status of dual rights in America. The due process clause of the 14th amendment passed in 1868 had changed the equation. The amendment states the the Statescannot deny due process rights. This is the first time that the constitution could possibly limit state power. The clause mentions that the States cannot deny life , liberty, or property without due process. You are entitled to a hearing if you claim your due process rights were arbitrarily removed. Some scholars and Judicial experts claimed that the bill of rights applied since life, liberty, and property were the same as the bill of rights. The courts disagreed with this interpretation and clearly stated that the due process clause and the bill of rights did not in any way restrict state laws and actions. After many years the Supreme court changed its mind and stated that the bill of rights apply as protections against all state laws and actions. Now the bill of rights are honored by all states because they have to. see the link on selective incorporation This process of the supreme court ruling that the states had to honor certain rights took place over a long period of time and included many different rulings over a long span of time. See the link below for an explanation.
what is selective incorporation?
another link another explanation selective incorporation explained again
Civil Liberties only apply to governmental actions, therefore you can't sue persons or organizations not part of a government. We have these rights because the anti-federalists wanted to protect persons from abuses from questionable government actions and laws. These protections only protected you from arbitrary intrusions originating from the national government. The states had their own civil liberties created in their constitutions. You couldn't assert national rights unless you were injured by a federal law or actions. link-read a summary of the Barron v. Baltimore case which clearly states the law of the land before the states had to follow the provisions in the constitution.
Barron Case Summary
Religious Freedom-Religious Freedom
A conflict in rights- some constitutional provisions are in conflict with other provisions as well as clashing with state laws. A clear example of this conflict is reflected in the (free exercise of religion clause), you have a right to practice your religious beliefs but what if it causes harm to family members in violation of state law? If a mother doesn't get help for a sick child who needs immediate medical attention and opts out for prayer instead of medical attention, then the law parental neglect laws override her right to practice her religious beliefs. So rights are not absolute, they can be taken away if one neglects a child for religious reasons.
Rights are relative not absolute-There can be a conflict between freedom v. order or freedom v. equality that presents itself for judicial review. This means that the court can take away rights when they conflict with health and safety laws, or some national laws. You have a right to engage in political speech, in some cases you need to get a permit from the city if you anticipate a large gathering at your event. Let's say that you plan to speak about the necessity for violence and advocate for violence. If it is immanent that violence probably will occur then your right can be denied by the courts or by city officials. There has to be a high probability that violence will occur before the courts will grant a restraining order. So rights are relative and can be taken away under certain circumstances involving the importance of order over freedom.
Court Standards-The courts want public officials to clearly understand the rights you possess so that they are not arbitrarily removed. In many rulings the court will set up a standard that applies to the right in question. It is similar to a checklist of conditions that must be met before a right is infringed upon. Let's give an example of standards outlined by the supreme court. First read this link to find the obscenity standard in the miller case What constitutes Obscenity .
Another standard-Political speech- When should public officials and law enforcement officials ban provocative speech that might elicit a violent reaction? The court had to articulated a standard or test to clarify what they should do as a policy.

Abstract-In India hearing aid users are increasing every year. It could be because of the awareness created among the population, enhanced literacy rate, awareness created by NGOs and ASHA workers. According to the statistical data out of 100 people 13 are born with disability of which 3 would be hearing impaired. The Hearing aid users are classified based on the severity of impairment. They could be mild, moderate, moderately severe and profound hearing loss. Hearing aid is used as amplifying devices for their impairment. To make them work efficiently, hearing aid with proper battery power level plays a vital role as they are power sources. Hearing aid users purchase batteries which are the essential spares. These if not used properly may drain out the energy immediately. Replacement of batteries will cost more to a wearer. This used battery after use may pile up as e-waste adding to environment pollution (Land pollution). This project will be focusing mainly in reducing buying more batteries for the wearer. Helps to save money as the charger designed will be of indigenous and low cost. Therefore, contributing in reducing e-waste and saving environment.
The idea proposed is to design a charger for the Hearing aid batteries with a LCD display. There will be three prime inputs solar panel used to trap solar energy which is renewable, ac input and a USB port which can be connected to the PC.

The World Health Organization (WHO) reported that 360 million people, over 5% of the world's population, have a disabling hearing loss.
However, the global production of hearing aids is 10% below the total need. In developing countries, the situation is worse, as the current production of hearing aids meets less than 3% of the total need.
original prescribed setting. To overcome this problem the usage of digitalized hearing aid came into existence.
Due to the digitalization of hearing aids, usage of battery in the hearing aid came into existence. The batteries were marketed at a reasonable price. As a result batteries were sold at a high rate. As batteries are the most practical solution when it comes to powering smaller electronic devices of every kind. Rechargeable batteries have found their way into our daily life for almost every device, yet a huge number of disposable batteries are still being used. An estimated 1.4 billion disposable hearing aid batteries are dumped in landfills annually. On the other hand, there is an ongoing trend toward greater environmental awareness and green technologies. Used battery after use may pile up as e-waste adding to environment pollution. adding to environment pollution.
The anode, or negative electrode, gives up electrons to the external circuit. It is generally a metal, which is oxidized during discharge.
The cathode, or positive electrode, accepts electrons when the battery is connected to an electric circuit. It is usually a metallic oxide or a sulphide, but oxygen is also used (e.g., in zinc-air batteries).
The electrolyte provides the medium for the transfer of ions inside the cell between the anode and cathode. During battery discharge metal atoms that are missing electrons move through the electrolyte towards the cathode.
Often a separator is required to electrically isolate the positive and negative electrodes.
wherein one chip is responsible for data acquisition and re- construction while a second chip is dedicated to the DSP circuitry.
Zinc air battery is the most commonly used hearing aid battery. It is activated by removing the sealing tab allowing oxygen from the air to pass into the cell and start a two-step chemical process. This chemical reaction produces about 1.351.4 V in the standard battery types.
Applications of solar energy have been a research topic for decades. In recent years, it has attracted even more interest due to the challenges on the environment, fuel source, and automotive industries. Using solar power to charge batteries is not a new idea. A simple way to accomplish this is to connect a photovoltaic (PV) panel directly to a battery. The Solar-Powered Charger, seeks to deliver the benefits of solar power in a compact and portable package.
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) was introduced in 1996 and has since become one of the most widespread and convenient interfaces for electronic devices. Commercial USB chargers draw predetermined amount of current from USB charging port, and disconnect from the charging port if the amount is not supported. Thus, a built-in battery should be used as an energy buffer.
The High-power DC and AC supply options are envisaged for the charging of batteries, each of them having different features. This paper considers the AC supply option and deals with the main issues that it poses like an onboard high-power battery charger and its impact on the grid.
To design a hearing aid battery charger.
To reduce the conventional hearing aid batteries.
To reduce e-waste in the country.

,Microprocessor CMOS Circuit For Hearing Aids,in which a three channel micropower CMOS circuit for a programmable hearing aid is presented. It allows the compensation of even difficult hearing impairments by dividing the dynamic losses separately.
T Cutler  in (2016) proposed a work on, A design guide for rechargeable zinc-air battery technology ,in which the use of long run time, high energy storage, lightweight rechargeable batteries can be used for such applications. This paper first looks at rechargeable zinc air-battery technology in comparison with other rechargeable battery technologies.
Jinwook Kimand  in (2017) proposed a work based on,Free-Positioning Wireless Charging System for Hearing Aids Using a Bowl-Shaped Transmitting Coil ,in which a Wireless power transfer system for charging hearing aids is proposed. A bowl-shaped transmitting coil is to achieve free-positioning or wireless charging.
The microcontroller is a small computer on a single integrated circuit. In modern terminology, it is similar to, but less sophisticated than, a system on a chip(Soc).
Input from either source would be given to the battery charger which gets charged for the predetermined levels. The unknown battery that needs to be charged is placed in the charging unit which will get charge from either source. During the charging process the LCD display will give the visual feedback about the level of charge of the unknown battery. If the charge present in the battery is 1.5V and 25mA of current then the LCD display will show the value of above 50% or else it will show the value of below 50%.
There are 4 different types of battery which is used for the hearing aid. These batteries are rechargeable batteries which are popularly known as button cells available in the market. One cell charged by the charger could be used for about 15 days and recharged again when required.
There are three primary inputs as shown in the Block diagram Fig.2 and this is given to the charging unit which is thereby linked to the batteries or button cells which are to be charged. The charging unit is built using Voltage Regulators and Relays, the input obtained is stepped down using a transformer and the desired voltage of the particular battery capacity is obtained using the rectification and filtering processes. The rechargeable battery is connected at the output of the relays and it charges when main power is available from any of the three sources.
The circuit also indicates the charging status, if the battery is drained completely then the display unit shows the battery percentage, if it is below 100% then it indicates that it must be charged, if the battery is completely or nearly charged then the display shows 100%. Therefore, this helps in knowing the status of charge of the battery.
Step 1:Give the primary input from any three given input form.
Step 2: Charge the battery using a charging unit.
Step 3: Show the battery level of the battery to be charged in the LCD display.
Step 4: If battery has 100% charge, then no need to charge the battery.
Step 6: If the battery level is less than or equal to 50%, then the charging process takes place.
Step 7: Stop the charging process.
Used for Hearing aid button cells.
If the cells are not placed properly then the cells discharge faster.
This chapter gives information about the implementation of the proposed project.
The solar energy is abundant in nature and it is also a renewable source of energy which can be used for powering the electronic gadgets. Hence solar energy is one of the input for charging the battery.
Place the solar panel directed towards the sun. The heat of the sun is then absorbed by the solar panel. The internal structure of the panel consists of small diodes, which will allow the current to flow in one direction in order to avoid the discharging of current from the other side.
The maximum output voltage of the panel which it can produce from the solar energy is 17 volts. But the minimum voltage required to power on microcontroller board, the voltage should be greater than or equal to 10 Volts.
programmed in such a way that it senses the battery voltage and it is displayed on to a LCD display.
The output of the panel is given to the voltage divider which divides the voltage by 2. This divider circuit is designed in such a way that the output from the divider circuit is 2.5 volts.
This voltage is given to the relay. If the relay gets the enough voltage from the input, then the relay will be activated. When current passes through the relay ,the inductance effect in the relay closes the switch to complete the connection.
The output of the relay is given to the buck converter which reduces the DC voltage to 1.65V. Then battery starts to charge.
Mains electricity is the general purpose alternating- current electric power supply. It is the form of electrical power that is delivered to homes and businesses, and it is the form of electric power that consumers use when they plug the electronic appliances to the wall sockets.
If the person is at homes and offices, he/she can charge the battery through AC mains. This AC main is used as the second input source for the battery charger.
The 230 Volts supply is given to a isolation transformer, which will step down the input to 12 Volts AC.
The output of the transformer is center tapped to produce 6-0- 6 volts across the output .It is connected to the bridge rectifier and also the microcontroller board.
The AC mains is set as the second priority input to the charger.
As the number of computer users in the world as been on an increasing trend, hence it has been incorporated as one of the inputs in the project.
This flexibility will be a boon to a working class community as they can charge their batteries during their time of work.
The threshold voltage for USB is 2.5 Volts. As the output of USB is 5 volts,it cannot drive the micro-controller board and the charging process simultaneously. Hence, the display is not turned on.
The usage of relay is also not incorporated as the connection is been made directly to the charging module.
Hence, the battery is charged from this implementation. The USB is given as the least priority input to the charger.
A three way input charger will be designed for the batteries in Hearing aids. This considerably lower down the replacing of batteries frequently. The batteries can be recharged and used for a longer span with better durability. By this there will be reduction of E-waste in environment at a higher extent.
Designed a charger for the Hearing aid batteries with a LCD display. The charger is fed with three inputs, solar panel used to trap solar energy which is renewable, ac input and a USB port which can be connected to the PC. Commercial USB chargers draw predetermined amount of current from USB charging port, and disconnect from the charging port if the amount is not supported. The High-power DC and AC supply options are envisaged for the charging of batteries, each of them having different features.
Including a level indicator, which gives the visual display of the charge present in the battery which can be viewed in LED.
Providing the display for the USB input source.

Our last two days in Ilocos became more exciting and unforgettable adventure as we further explore and discover this amazing province. From historical places and churches to its captivating nature — Ilocos is truly a great place to visit.
I enjoyed horseback riding on my way to the Kapurpurawan for P100. I actually wondered what the word "Kapurpurawan" means in Ilocano and my tour guide said it means "white".
Kapurpurawan Rock Formation was named as such because it showcases a breathtaking view of creamy white and streamlined lime stone formation with windmills nearby.
I didn't expect the cold and strong wind in this place where I can intensely feel the power of the winds pushing against my back. Most of my pictures have my face covered with my hair, haha. I regret not bringing a ponytail.
A beautiful stopped over on our way to Bangui Windmills.
Dear Bangui Windmills, I wished I have witnessed and captured your beauty with a great sunlight, but still, you're stunning regardless. First time to see roaring and tempestuous waves like this in person.
on the sandy shore, I stare at this breathtaking horizon in front me.
Before we go back to Manila, we had a quick visit to Vitalis Villa. It is a greek-style resort they called "Santorini of Ilocos Sur". Out of curiosity to see the entire resort, I google it until I was amazed how huge and gorgeous it is. Now, I want to go back there!
Oh yeah, bagnet! It is sooo delicious, i also love their poqui-poqui haha. i actually took a photo of one huge bowl of bagnet in Ilocos,craving right now.
Aww, a little bit of trek to Kapurpurawan is a great experience though especially if you are with your friends.
Thank you for dropping by, Angelica!
I've always wanted to try pottery-making! Do they let you touch those things? Haha I'm really interested. And ooooh, this post reminded me of the dragon fruit ice cream from Ilocos. Have you tried that?
Nana recently posted…timeline: my last piano concert.
Oh, I so envy you because we came here last December and it was raining. Though we did enjoy our stay, it always is wonderful to travel with friends and family, it would have been nice to see the windmills on a sunny day. You got great photos.
Lovely photos Jonine! Ilocos is one of the provinces I always wish to visit. Every time I get to see tour packages on facebook, I'm always tempted to avail. I know Ilocos is very feasible to go to, and there are so many places to visit! I have tried horseback riding before, that was in Tagaytay. I remembered feeling sad about the horses cos I pity them so much. I didn't put so much effort in controlling the horse cos I might hurt it. huhu! The Bangui Windmills still looks great in the photo despite the weather. Hope I can visit the place one day soon!
Hello, Dianne. 🙂 Visit Ilocos it is indeed a beautiful province. Aww, I actually hugged the horse after horseback riding, hehe they're so adorable and look so innocent. Thank you, Dianne!

Sidney Powell Suit Makes 30 Allegations in Bid to Invalidate Georgia Election Results
- THE EPOCH TIMES - Nov 26, 2020 -
PETR SVAB -
Sidney Powell, author of the bestseller "Licensed to Lie" and lead counsel in more than 500 appeals in the 5th Circuit, in Washington on May 30, 2019. (Samira Bouaou/The Epoch Times)
A lawsuit released by lawyers led by former federal prosecutor Sidney Powell makes 30 allegations of electoral fraud and other illegal and irregular activities and features pertaining to the 2020 general elections in Georgia (pdf).
The allegations, most of which are based on witness and expert statements, relate to mail-in ballot fraud and insecurities, recount irregularities and deficiencies, and security hazards of the Dominion Voting Systems machines used by the state.
The suit alleges the following:
The software used by the Dominion machines was accessed by agents of malicious actors, such as China and Iran, "in order to monitor and manipulate elections," including the 2020 election. The allegation is based on a redacted declaration of a former electronic intelligence analyst under 305th Military Intelligence. "By using servers and employees connected with rogue actors and hostile foreign influences combined with numerous easily discoverable leaked credentials, Dominion neglectfully allowed foreign adversaries to access data and intentionally provided access to their infrastructure in order to monitor and manipulate elections, including the most recent one in 2020," the suit says.
An affiant, whose name was redacted for security reasons, alleged that the software used by Dominion was designed for Venezuelan government with the specific purpose to rig elections without the risk of getting caught. The affiant said he was part of a national security detail to former Venezuelan socialist dictator Hugo Chavez. "The purpose of this conspiracy was to create and operate a voting system that could change the votes in elections from votes against persons running the Venezuelan government to votes in their favor in order to maintain control of the government," he said.
The allegation was corroborated by another witness who "was in an official position related to elections and witnessed manipulations of petitions to prevent a removal of President Chavez."

UFO's best albums
Craig Chaquico's 5 Essential Guitar Albums
By Joe Bosso (Classic Rock) 2016-03-01T13:25:00.600Z
Former Jefferson Starship guitarist Craig Chaquico delivers the details on five stunning guitar albums...
Guitar solos were dead in 1979. Radio wanted short, snappy songs that got to the point, hit you on the head with the chorus, and got outta there fast.
Jefferson Starship's manager thought the band had a hit in the making with a song they were cutting, Jane, but he pleaded with the group to whack down Craig Chaquico's blitzing 28-second lead guitar break.
"He even came in with a stopwatch and timed it," Chaquico recalls. "He made his case – 'Radio won't play the song with a solo that long. Cut it down.' But the band and our producer, Ron Nevison, backed me up – the solo stays.' The song went on to become a radio smash and helped propel the album Freedom at Point Zero to platinum status. "Whenever I hear the solo to 'Jane' on the radio, it makes me so happy," Chaquico says. "We fought for every second of that thing."
The guitarist lets out a laugh and concedes that the band's then manager was, indeed, correct about one thing: "The guys in Metallica came up to me recently at an awards show, and they said Jane was their favourite song when it came out because it was the only long guitar solo they heard on the radio. So in a way, that proved that our manager was right – radio wasn't playing big guitar solos. We were lucky to have the only one that got through."
Chaquico reasons that the impact and enduring appeal of the guitar solo to Jane lies partly its construction: "It was designed to stand out. The band kind of settles back and lets the solo explode. The thing goes through five octaves, from one end of the neck to the other." He pauses, then adds, "None of which would have mattered if the solo didn't have melody and heart. I packed a lot of feeling into each note."
Which also describes Chaquico's selections for five essential guitar albums. "I love to hear a player's technique, but I also need to hear heart and soul," he says. "A great guitar album has that 'wow factor' in the technique or tone, but it's got feeling, too. It's like listening to somebody type really fast. Are they saying anything poetic? Are they writing anything that's worth sharing? Or is it just random words, a bunch of blabbering? A great guitarist, and a great guitar album, takes you on a journey – one worth going on."
Below, Chaquico runs down his choices for five essential guitar albums.
Quicksilver Messenger Service – Quicksilver Messenger Service (1968)
"This is the first album I ever owned. John Cipollina was the lead guitarist, and he made a big impression on me. His technique with a Bigsby and a wah-wah pedal was incredible – I was definitely influenced by that. Ironically, I wound up in a band with the singer, David Freiberg – he later joined the Jefferson Airplane and he formed Jefferson Starship with all of us.
"This was a great album for me to play along to. You didn't have to keep tuning your guitar, and the songs were easy for me to follow. John Cipollina put so much emotion in a song called The Fool – it blew me away. It was the first time I ever heard a guitar cry and scream. The whole thing was so emotive and angst-ridden, all the little clicks and scratches – everything about it was filled with feeling."
The Jimi Hendrix Experience – Are You Experienced (1967)
"This is probably the most influential guitar album for me. I was babysitting with my big brother, and when he left and put the kids to bed, I grabbed his headphones and listened to a record he had. It was Jimi Hendrix. Man, it changed my life! I'd never heard somebody make a guitar sound like so many things all at once. Jimi was like a magician.
"The phrasing, the rhythms, the solos, the sounds – he was a complete guitarist, but he was also a visionary. He was a blues player, but he took it somewhere new with the psychedelic stuff. With one album, he blew a hole in the entire scene. He used feedback in a musical way, which was revolutionary. When they designed those amps, I don't think they knew somebody like Hendrix would utilise their power in such a way."
Santana – Caravanserai (1972)
"I loved Carlos Santana as a guitarist, but this is also when Neal Schon was in the band. It was a little hard to tell them apart sometimes, but I think Carlos was doing more melodic work and not being so flashy. Neal would do some of the more hotshot stuff – he was very young, so he was a real acrobatic and full of energy.
"I remember walking into a studio around this time. Neal and I are roughly the same age – I don't even think we had driver's licenses. I heard him playing Voodoo Child, by Hendrix, and he sounded amazing, just like the record. When he was done, I said, 'Hey, Neal, how do you do that?' And he looked at me, thought for a second, then said, 'Why should I tell you, man?' I told his son that story, and he said, 'Hey, he won't show me stuff either!'"
Davey Johnstone – the 10 Records That Changed My Life
Live Preview:
The Allman Brothers Band – _At Fillmore East _(1971)
"What an amazing album! The guitar playing is so tasty and melodic. I loved playing along to it. Now, the funny thing is, I didn't know the guys were using slides. I had no idea how they were getting such smooth, bendy notes. So I just learned how to do that with my fingers. I did it for days and weeks – my fingers bled like crazy. It wasn't till later that somebody said, 'You know, they're putting these things on their fingers to do that. It makes it much easier.'
"The were also influential to me in that a lot of the stuff they did was in major keys. That was a big revelation to me – there's a major key and a minor key. One's happy and one's kind of sad. Duane Allman and Dickey Betts really fleshed out that melodic way of playing solos in major keys. Plus, hearing them play Les Pauls was a great introduction to that sound."
Starship – Greatest Hits of the '80s (2007)
"This is a weird and funny one. There are some fake Starship greatest hits albums out there. They're re-recordings of our original songs, but it's not us. Mickey Thomas is singing on the tracks, but it's these unknown people playing the background tracks. The titles of these albums are totally misleading.
"Now, what's strange is, this one particular album became an influential record for me, because I got to listen to what other people would do to try to sound like me. This was very interesting because I thought, 'It's just like when I would listen to other guitarists and try to copy them. Now here's other people copying me!' It was neat to hear my style being interpreted by other guys. I looked at it as a big compliment."

Es una tradición de Banpresto de que los personajes con sus actores de voz fallecidos continuarán usando las voces originales en vez de poner una voz nueva, se cree que en futuras producciones en las que salgan Bright Noa y Haran Banjou continuarán usando su voz grabada.

New technology has enabled us to be freer and less dependent on traditional office workplaces. Distance working is more and more common. Our meetings are increasingly virtual. Fixed workstations are replaced by hot-desking, and large, expensive conference rooms are replaced by small, technology-packed cubbyholes.
New times also require a new way of thinking with regard to office furniture.
The "all inclusive" option. With its two back balls, rounded seat and two flexible tabletops it offers a complete and "super-ergonomic" workstation in a compact format.
Garden is an icon, an art object and eye-catcher. But it also offers numerous comfortable sitting positions.
Based on the height of its sitting position and foot support, Globe Two provides the body with freedom of movement and energy.
An ergonomic pallet, perfect in waiting room area or in areas where freedom of movement of the upper body is essential.
Let the chair be still.
By combining Globe TWO's higher and active seating position with a rollable, height-adjustable desk – both movement and creativity will be stimulated.
Thanks to its compact shape, balance weight and gas-lift, this worktable requires minimal space and no electrical cords.
The prototype, developed in cooperation with Form2 Office, was shown for the first time at Orgatec 2016.
Together with its cooperative partner Moment AB, the Opsvik company has developed an entirely new concept for the modern and flexible workplace. The Globe Concept was created to inspire curiosity and make sitting active – in both public spaces and offices.
"Conventional workplaces will be challenged by compact units that better suits our new, more flexible and IT-driven way of working".

Trailer Reaction Videos Were My Cultural Comfort of 2018
by Tyler Huckabee
This year, I've found myself obsessed with a YouTube genre that has put me in touch with emotions so powerful they almost frighten me. I'm talking about trailer reaction videos: videos of other people watching movie trailers.
I might be alone here, but I'm hoping not. At least, I'm hoping that I can explain what it is that has made them such a refuge in 2018. It's a little difficult to put into words, so it might be easier if I show you.
Let's start with this video from the annual Star Wars Celebration 2015, which was surreptitiously (and, I suspect, illicitly) taken when the first official trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens was debuted before an audience of screaming nerds. The quality is poor and the audio is fuzzy, but you can make out director J.J. Abrams and Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy's introductory chatter, and the actual trailer starts around the 0:47 mark.
This video is, and I say this without hesitation, one of my favorite things on the whole entire internet. I've watched it dozens of times. Sometimes during a lunch break, when I've got an hour to myself and I forgot my book at home. Sometimes in the middle of the day, when deadlines are piling up and I need a few seconds to ease the tension at the base of my neck. Sometimes late at night, when sleep won't come and Twitter has nothing to offer except bad news, I pull up this video and let myself sink into a world that feels so unfamiliar it's almost sci-fi in and of itself: a world in which people — lots of people — allow themselves to be purely, unironically, unreservedly delighted.
I'm not a huge Star Wars fan — at least, not on the scale of Star Wars fans. I like the movies (the good ones, at least) but this video stirs something in me that transcends fandom. At the 1:24 mark when our clandestine videographer gives a jittery little "hoo hoo!" at the sight of Darth Vader's mangled helmet, I feel a physical warmth in my guts. The ecstatic cheer at the kicker reveal of Han Solo and Chewbacca makes me, no joke, weep with joy. I'm crying right now!
That video isn't a true trailer reaction video, but it was my introduction to the joy of trailer reaction videos. It was where I first discovered the voyeuristic comfort of watching other people enjoy things they loved. In a world where I and most people I know feel compelled to qualify their reactions and erect some emotional distance between themselves and their fandoms, trailer reaction videos capture sincere moments of wonder. It feels like an intimate experience, seeing someone's naked thrill, and it's been a balm this very difficult year.
I generally love everything the guys (and occasional girl) over at Struggle Nation post, but I especially love this reaction to the Black Panther trailer. This fits the more typical trailer reaction format, in which you can actually see the faces of people taking it all in. My face isn't big enough to contain the smile this video puts on it. The trailer starts around 1:38 (note, there's a brief expletive in the video).
I love it. The little thrill at T'Challa and Shuri's handshake at 2:25. The whoop so loud the audio peaks at 2:34. The "stop playing with me!" at 3:41. It feels empowering, somehow, to see other people get this excited.
It's enviable too. I love the Marvel movies, but do I love them this much? Do I love anything this much? When was the last time I allowed myself to fully embrace the excitement and thrill of anything? To stop being cynical and analytical, only for two or three minutes, and just let Hollywood do its thing? Is that even possible for me anymore?
To answer that question, I dive a little deeper. Without a doubt, one of the best trailer moments of the past year came at the tail end of the Christopher Robin teaser, when Jim Cummings' Winnie the Pooh voice returned with a one way ticket to your childhood. It'd take a pretty cold customer to not feel at least a little bit warmed by the moment, as Caiterpillar was here.
Trailers are a gamble. It's not hard to make a bad movie look good when you're only selecting its most appealing 90 seconds or so. That makes getting excited about a movie based on a trailer a risk, and it's one many of us take only cautiously — barely daring to hope this thing might be as good as it looks. After all, we've been let down before.
15 Things Christians Should Stop Doing on Social Media
Take, for example, 2017's live action Beauty & the Beast remake. The movie was serviceable at best, but the first teaser had a special magic to it that tapped into lovely eeriness of the original film. The aching quality of Alan Menken's score burrows deep into the brain's nostalgia centers, but the couple here feels like a real conduit for things I can't quite allow myself to feel. When Vanessa's eyes get glassy at a glimpse of the rows of melting candlesticks, she expresses an earnestness I'd like to feel more often. Seeing other people visibly appreciate something lets me know that it's ok. It's ok to still love things unreservedly. It's ok to hope that something might be good.
That these three trailer reactions all came from Disney movies speaks to some of my conflicted feelings here. The company has an unprecedented cultural reach, and their nigh-oligharcal control over what we watch is problematic to me, but watching these videos, I feel two things can be true at the same time. Disney is cynically milking nostalgia on their way to get access to our checkbooks and increase their dominance over what we call pop culture but is often just mass consumerism. And at the same time, this video of these men who I will never meet and may have virtually nothing in common with is every bit as thrilling as any moment in the actual trailer for Avengers: Infinity War.
Millennials get dinged for being too sarcastic, and that's not an unfair critique. But sarcasm often stems from a wound, and a wound common to millennials is a world that has turned out to be much colder and crueler than the one many of us believed we'd inherit. That can breed an understandable distrust of things that seem to be good: the job market, grand career aspirations, marriages, politics. We've all had dreams deferred at this point, and it makes getting excited about anything, let alone a dumb Disney movie, feel foolish.
But in trailer reactions, if only for a few minutes, we see people who've tabled their cynicism for anticipation and their suspicion for glee. It's a peek into a world that may not be safe to live in for prolonged periods of time, but in the occasional visit has let me see something I don't see enough of in the world around me. Something I'd like to cultivate more of in my own life: hope.

He said that when Muslim "extremists" kill Americans, it is the Muslims who suffer more than we do. And in closing he said that America must follow the words of Ghandi, and be guided by Ghandi's beliefs. But don't take our word for it – read it for yourself.


Intel is preparing to launch an over-the-top TV service available through a dedicated set-top device and is trademarking OnCue for that purpose, according to GigaOM.
Intel is preparing to launch an over-the-top (OTT) TV service available through a dedicated set-top device which will be called "OnCue," according to a new report from GigaOM.
The tech site reported that Intel has "applied for trademarks for OnCue around the globe and tasked ad agency OMD to prepare the official introduction of the brand."
On Friday, an Intel spokesperson declined to comment on the rumor.
Intel executives recently appeared to downplay rumors that the company is planning to launch a major new pay-TV service, GigaOM lays out a pretty compelling trail of evidence to suggest that such an offering is in fact coming to fruition and that it will be called OnCue.
"Developed and lead [sic] the launch of Intel Media's groundbreaking new consumer device, OnCue; an 'over-the-top' TV service joining streaming-video players and a full array of Network and Cable TV channels."
GigaOM also traced a trio of OnCue-related trademark registrations with the U.S. Patent and Trademark office made in May by "a shell company called Sest Inc." which contain word-for-word phrasing that's identical to trademarks filed earlier in 2012 by Intel regarding the "Intel Inside & Out" subscription-based TV and multimedia service.
Sest has "also been busy filing a number of trademark applications outside of the U.S., including in Canada, Mexico, and Europe, the site reported. The attorney retained in Europe to file a Sest trademark application "has also filed numerous other Intel trademarks in the past, including the original Intel Inside filing," GigaOM added.
The Sest filings contain a logo, pictured at right, and a slogan, "TV has come to its senses," the site reported.
GigaOM theorized that Intel's purported OTT service will include live TV, "as well as a catch-up service and on-demand programming." The chip giant plans to sell the set-top box or device associated with the service online and through retail partners, according to the site.
Last month, new Intel CEO Brian Krzanich appeared to downplay a rumored foray into Internet television, as reported by several media outlets. Bloomberg, for example, reported in mid-June that Intel was "making progress in talks with Time Warner, NBC Universal and Viacom to obtain TV shows and films for a first-of-its kind online pay-TV service."
In a meeting with reporters about two weeks ago, Krzanich did not flat-out deny that rumor but offered up a more cautious approach to TV on the part of his company.
"We believe we have a great user interface and the compression-decompression technology is fantastic. But in the end, if we want to provide that service it comes down to content. We are not big content players," he said in response to questions about Intel's TV plans.

Located in central east Pennsylvania, Bethlehem is a industrial hub that meshes rich Moravian influence with modern excitement. Together with Allentown and Easton, this city forms the third-largest metropolitan area in the state. It was founded by members of the Moravian community in 1741, and would later become a center for heavy industry and trade - in fact, Bethlehem Steel famously produced the steel that hangs in the Golden Gate Bridge. Today, the city has been gentrifying with new restaurants, arts galleries and shops.
The city is also home to Moravian College and Lehigh University. As of 2012 U.S. Census, the population of Bethlehem was approximately 75,000. With academics at the Bethlehem's doorstep, the majority of residents are employed in educational services as well as health care.
The weather spans four seasons. During the summer, highs reach mid-80s while temperatures average in the 30s come the cooler months.
Attractions and activities in Bethlehem
Bethlehem offers a mix of old and new attractions. The historic district, an area rich with cultural traditions from its many immigrants, has been experiencing a bit of a renaissance, and is now home to what residents call "Restaurant Row."

To discover an arts centerfold of the city, head to SteelStacks, which is a 10-acre campus dedicated to culture and family events that sits next to the former Bethlehem Steel Plant. Each year, Bethlehem hosts a variety of events, including Musikfest in August, Celtic Classic in September and Christkindlmarkt Bethlehem in November and December.

Coral reef ecology and conservation in the tropical Pacific Ocean
Research: Publication
Both local and global stressors threaten coral reefs, putting the food security, cultural continuity, and livelihoods of millions of reef-dependent people at risk. Still, scientists lack an understanding of how climate-driven heat stress interacts with local stressors such as fishing and pollution to influence reef health. Coral reef communities in the Marshall Islands and Kiribati, both low-lying atoll nations in the central Pacific, offer an opportunity to examine these interactions. The Gilbert Islands of Kiribati, which straddle the equator, experience highly variable sea surface temperatures (SSTs) inter-annually due to El Niño / Southern Oscillation, driving coral bleaching events in 2004/2005 and 2009/2010, while the Marshall Islands further north of the equator experience more stable SSTs. Both nations are home to degraded reefs near their capitol atolls, which host over half of each country's populations. I first analyzed the benthic trajectories of coral reefs in the Gilbert Islands from 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2018, across a gradient of local human disturbance after multiple stressors, including two heat stress events and an outbreak of the corallivorous Crown-of-Thorns (CoTs) starfish, finding that locally degraded reefs were more resistant to heat stress than less trafficked reefs because the former were home to hardier taxa. Next, comparing locally disturbed and undisturbed reefs in Kiribati to those in the Marshalls demonstrated that the interactions between local and global stressors were context-dependent; the taxa that were present dictated the interactions. Then, via a meta-analysis of 1,205 sites in the Indian and Pacific Oceans, I demonstrated that a proxy often used to assess the effects of local human disturbance on reef health, the percent cover of macroalgae, does not correlate with local human disturbance. Instead, different genera of macroalgae exhibited diverse and often opposing responses to various sources of local human disturbance. Finally, I used public archives from an email listserv popular among the coral conservation community to analyze the policy narratives used by participants when discussing local threats to reefs, the actors involved in the local threat, their distal drivers, and the proposed solutions, revealing underlying assumptions about reefs and local people, which could inadvertently undermine conservation.
