SAU's proposed Public Health degree program could start fall 2018
SAU is responding to an increasing demand for healthcare degree programs by working to add a Bachelor of Science in Public Health degree.
If the Arkansas Department of Higher Education approves the proposal this spring, the new program will take effect in fall of 2018. The College of Science and Engineering is currently reviewing applications for an assistant professor of public health position, according to Interim Dean Dr. Abdel Bachri.
"The SAU Public Health program will serve to produce a trained public health workforce and will focus on disease prevention and the promotion of good health in the community, which can be achieved by connecting the community to the formal health and human service systems while providing informal counseling and support," Bachri explained.
Examples of public health careers include first responders, health educators, restaurant inspectors, scientists and researchers, food safety experts, nutritionists, community planners, social workers, and epidemiologists. Work environments could include public health departments, non-governmental agencies, environmental health, hospitals, insurance companies, health care management organizations, and health care accrediting agencies.
"Public health is one of the few degrees for which graduates are able to work in numerous roles and different areas," said Bachri. "It is widely believed that most of the job growth in the future will be in the healthcare industry."
This belief is supported by a 2014 report by the Association of Schools and Programs of Public Health and the Beaumont Foundation that showed public health being one of the fastest growing undergraduate majors in the U.S.
SAU's Public Health graduates should not have to travel far to find meaningful employment as Arkansas, Louisiana, and Mississippi rounded out the bottom three states for worst overall health in the 2017 America's Health Rankings Annual Report published by the United Health Foundation. Arkansas, ranked 48, has seen a 16 percent increase in obesity rates over the past five years (from 30.9 to 35.7 percent). Diabetes rates climbed 21 percent, from 11.2 to 13.5 percent, in adults. In the Clinical Care category, Arkansas ranked 47.

What made you interested in choosing the 12th fleet?: I have played with players who were affiliated with your fleet and I came leaving quite impressed with those the level of skill they possessed which peaked my interest when it came to looking for a new fleet. Upon further online research I felt this fleet would be a comfortable fleet for me and my kind of play style.
What days and times are you usually online?: Currently I am available most hours of the day. However, I will be returning to college back in January to pursue another bachelor's degree so my hours will be mostly limited to the evening.
Well the fleet I am to formerly be associated with gave me the opportunity to rise through the ranks rather expeditiously. I was able in a span of about 3 months to go from the lowest rank to the third highest rank within the fleet which gave me a great deal experience in fleet logistic/planning, conflict resolution and other fleet-related issues and activities. With that experience I feel I can also aid newer players with less in-game experience in their ship builds, skill trees, and overall character development.
Would you be interested in writing or doing art for the the 12th Fleet Magazine? No thank you.
Welcome to the forums and good luck with your app!
Before I can complete the application process, there are a couple of things I need to clear up.
1. You failed to mention on your application that you are currently a member of "Access Denied".
Before your application can be processed any further, I will need you to explain why you did not list them on your app and why you wish to leave them. Also, please note that any character you are applying to the 12th fleet with, must be fleet free (in-game) in order to accept a fleet invite.
You can give your reasons in this thread if you like, or if you would prefer to do so privately, you can by PM'ing me via the PM button at the bottom left of this post (You need to be logged in to see this).
I sent you a PM explaining the situation. I hope my message cleared up an confusion. If you need anything further please let me know. I do apologize for any confusion this has caused, it was not my intent to do so.
I am fleet-free and I just posted on the STO forums. I thank you for your patience and I look forward to getting to know you all.
I assign you as an Ensign to Epsilon Squad under Captain Grayheart.
I have sent you invites in-game to join the main fleet and 12th chat. Be sure to press the button to join the "12th" chat channel. That is the channel that is shared by our main, alt, and KDF fleets and is where all our chat takes place. We are going to seem a very quiet fleet if you are not on 12th channel. If you need any help setting up the chat, send me a tell (@Folcwin). If I am not online, anyone in Fleet channel should be able to help you get set up.
Normally, I would have assigned you to Alpha Squad, which is our Eastern Time zone squad, but Alpha is currently full, so I am assigning you to Epsilon which serves as a general overflow squad. You may request a transfer if you wish whenever there is room in Alpha or to another squad with room if you feel a different time zone is closer to your play time. However, squad organization is mostly for administrative purposes, and it does not constrain who you play with online.
Thank you for the opportunity to join your fleet. I look forward to getting to know you all.

Search for suspect in Clearwater hit-and-run crash
CLEARWATER (FOX 13) - Authorities are looking for a man they believe caused a hit-and-run crash in Clearwater Sunday morning.
It happened near the intersection for US Hwy. 19 and Roosevelt Boulevard shortly before 10:00 a.m.
The Florida Highway Patrol says the driver of a 2015 Honda Civic was seen driving 90 miles per hour in a 55 mile per hour speed limit zone. The trooper who spotted him followed and attempted to stop the car, but the driver fled, veering off onto the US 19 Frontage Road, where the driver crashed into a Honda CR-V. The impact caused that second car to turn and crash into a third and a fourth vehicle in a chain reaction. The people in those cars suffered minor injuries.
Troopers say the driver of the first car abandoned his vehicle and ran through a nearby CarMax parking lot and into a Rodeway Inn Hotel where he was last seen.
He is described as a African-American male with shoulder length braided hair; he was wearing a white shirt and blue jean shorts. Anyone who can help identify him is asked to contact the FHP at 813-631-4020, call *FHP or Crime Stoppers at 800-873-TIPS. Tips can also be submitted online at www.crimestoppersofpinellas.org.

Q: How to access different variables with an array I am trying to get a user to be prompted with the option to enter a value between 1 and 5, and get access a different array index based on the number they entered.

JavaScript Arrays

JavaScript array elements are accessed using numeric indexes (starting from 1).

I expect that the user is prompted for a value between 1 and 5, this value then determines which chocolate bar is returned to the screen.

A: You could take the index of the array by getting a zero based value, hence indices start with zero.
document.getElementById("whichbar").innerHTML = chocbars[userchoice - 1];

Louisiana is No. 1 -- but not in a desirable way. It has the highest average car insurance rates in the nation, followed by Michigan and Georgia, according to Insure.com's annual state-by-state comparison of insurance premiums.
Maine enjoys the least expensive car insurance rates, followed by Iowa.
Louisiana and Michigan have held one of the top three positions since Insure.com began its annual survey in 2010. Georgia rose from the No. 10 position in 2012 to this year's third-place spot, bumping Oklahoma to fourth place.
Maine and Iowa held the bottom two spots on the list last year and have been in the bottom 10 since 2010.
A variety of factors make car insurance rates more painful in some states than others -- the number of insurers competing for business, driving conditions, the portion of drivers who are uninsured, and the way state insurance systems are set up.
Compared to the rest of the country, Louisiana drivers who get in accidents file more bodily injury claims than drivers in other states.
Louisiana also has a high rate of comprehensive claims, which include damage from natural disasters, says R. Parke Ellis, president-elect of the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of Louisiana and chairman of Gillis, Ellis & Baker Inc. in New Orleans.
In addition, a greater portion of people filing insurance claims hire attorneys, says Barry Blumberg, president of the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of Louisiana and president and CEO of Blumberg and Associates Inc. in Baton Rouge.
Louisiana's judicial system may also be to blame for high rates. Lawsuits involving claims under $50,000 go before judges instead of juries. Some observers say elected judges are more likely to side with local people than insurance companies.
Michigan is the only state in the country that guarantees unlimited, lifetime personal injury protection (PIP) benefits for treatment of injuries from a car accident.
Other states don't even come close, observes Jeremy MacDonald, vice president of the Michigan Association of Professional Insurance Agents and president of the Mid-Michigan Agency Inc. in Alma. Florida caps PIP benefits at $10,000, for instance, and New York at $50,000.
MacDonald says an instructor at an insurance course for agents once quipped, "'I tell my wife if I have a heart attack, put me in the car and roll it into a tree.'"
Car insurance customers must buy PIP as part of the policy. PIP pays the medical bills for car accident injuries of the policyholder, family members in the household and any passengers who do not have PIP coverage. The injured person's car insurance company pays out the first $500,000 for medical treatment. Any expenses above that threshold are reimbursed by a state-created nonprofit called the Michigan Catastrophic Claims Association.
A portion of everyone's premium includes an assessment from the association, which this year is $175 per vehicle.
Last year a bill to set limits on PIP benefits failed, but legislators are expected to introduce another reform bill backed by Gov. Rick Snyder in March.
In addition to setting a cap on benefits, reform proponents have called for capping payments for medical services. Reimbursement costs for PIP claims are about three times the reimbursement costs for workers' compensation and four times the reimbursement costs for Medicare -- for the same procedures, according to the Insurance Institute of Michigan. The average PIP medical claim more than tripled to $44,138 in 2012 from $13,617 in 2000, the institute says.
Still, efforts to change the system face a tough fight from hospitals, patient advocates and some elected officials, such as Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson, who was critically injured in a car crash in August. In an open letter to the public, Patterson vigorously defended the state's current auto insurance system.
The political fight is often portrayed as the "big, bad insurance companies" being stingy versus accident victims who rely on the money for survival, says Jason Verlinde, treasurer of the Michigan Association of Professional Insurance Agents and vice president of the Verlinde Insurance Agency in Richmond.
"But the people who are getting lost in the story are the ones who can't afford it," he says.
He tells of a single mom who recently scraped enough money together to buy a used car and came to see him to buy auto insurance.
"It was a great day for her because she was finally able to get transportation to change her life," he says. "But the premium was $2,600 a year for the bare-minimum coverage. That includes no collision or comprehensive, and she can't afford it."
Victor Hamby, president of the Professional Insurance Agents of Georgia, says the market in the Atlanta metropolitan area was "ultra competitive" from about 2003 to 2010.
"The carriers underpriced the market, and claims caught up with them," he says. "We're seeing carriers increasing rates on auto insurance for the first time in seven or eight years, anywhere from 2 to 12%. We're seeing some hardening in the market."
But plenty of companies are still competing in Georgia, says Hamby, personal lines and bonds manager at Hamby & Aloisio Inc. in Atlanta.
"And that's a great thing," he says. "The regulatory environment is conducive to insurance companies writing car insurance. We're working hard to keep the marketplace in Georgia vibrant and competitive."
Donna Marcus-Doughten, president-elect of the Professional Insurance Agents of Georgia, agrees that Georgia has a healthy, competitive market. But she says traffic is terrible in the Atlanta area, which may lead to more fender-benders.
"It's bumper to bumper across six lanes," says Marcus-Doughten, vice president of Phoenix Associates in Marietta.
Iowa's rural sensibilities help keep rates down in the Hawkeye State, insurance agents say. The population of Des Moines, the largest city, is about 200,000.
"I don't think we're as rushed to do things," observes Paul Pohlson, president of the Independent Insurance Agents of Iowa and vice president of Ramsey Weeks in Grinnell.
"I look at other cities I travel to, and I just think we have fewer accidents because people seem to slow down here. Maybe we don't have as much road rage."
In small towns like Grinnell, where Pohlson works, "I'm probably going to know the person that I hit or who hits me in an accident."
People aren't quick to sue one another over car accidents in Iowa, and the culture is fairly conservative, says Terry McDonald, president-elect of the Independent Insurance Agents of Iowa and executive vice president of A.W. Welt Ambrisco Insurance Inc. in Iowa City.
"It's not as easy to win over a jury as it can be in another state," he says.
"I do think Maine being so rural is a factor in low rates," says Sheila Sawyer, president of the Maine Insurance Agents Association and an agent with Carl M.P. Larrabee Agency Inc. in Wiscasset. "We just don't have much city driving, and people learn to drive in all types of weather."
Maine's tight restrictions on young drivers and its graduated licensing program for new drivers also likely help keep accidents (and rates) down, Sawyer says.
Teens have to complete a state-approved driver education course before they can apply for a learner's permit, and they go through a three-step graduated licensing system which lets them get driving experience under lower-risk conditions. A driver under 18 with an "intermediate license," for instance, can't carry passengers other than immediate family members or drive between midnight and 5 a.m.
Insure.com commissioned Quadrant Information Services to provide auto insurance rates for more than 750 car models from six large carriers (Allstate, Farmers, GEICO, Nationwide, Progressive and State Farm) in 10 ZIP codes per state. Rates were compiled in December 2012.
We then averaged rates for all vehicles in each state to create the rankings. Rates are for comparative purposes within the same model year.
Rates are based on insurance for a single, 40-year-old male who commutes 12 miles to work each day, with policy limits of 100/300/50 ($100,000 for injury liability for one person, $300,000 for all injuries and $50,000 for property damage in an accident) and a $500 deductible on collision and comprehensive coverage. The hypothetical driver has a clean record and good credit. The rate includes uninsured motorist coverage. Actual rates will depend on individual driver factors.

Things To Do In San Diego, US
by Monica Horak
San Diego is one of those great places on earth that really has it all. The city offers picture-perfect beaches, a thriving downtown, and plenty of historical interest. There are so many things to experience in this beautiful city.
The locals are relaxed and laid back, which probably has to do with their surroundings. It's sunny year-round, you can play beach volleyball, surf, or just sunbathe at pretty much any time of the year. On top of that, the city has plenty of cultural activities and a thriving downtown scene.
What Makes San Diego Unique?
The city was originally centered around one of the Spanish Missions along the Camino Real. Today, San Diego is a thriving city with a bustling downtown and miles of beaches.
The coastline itself is diverse, with both white sand beaches and rocky shoreline cliffs. The city is special for so many reasons and a San Diego vacation is sure to leave a lasting impression on any visitor.
San Diego is a place that has something for everyone. There are places to visit in San Diego for people who are interested in wildlife, architecture, history and more. A San Diego vacation can mean many things, whether you're looking for a city escape or a beach vacation. In fact, with such a variety of activities in one city, you will never run out of things to do!
Take in the Wonders of Balboa Park
Photo by 12019 on Pixabay
Balboa Park is a favorite gathering place for locals and visitors alike. The space is a 1200-acre park in the middle of San Diego with lots of different things to explore. In fact, it's the largest urban park in North America, even larger than Central Park. Most of the buildings in Balboa Park were built for the Panama-California Exposition in 1915. Later, the city added more buildings for the California Pacific International Exposition in 1935.
Balboa Park has an impressive Botanical Building with lots of tropical plants on display. Wandering around will show you plants from all over the world right in one location. It's a dreamy place that is often the site of professional photo shoots. There is also an outdoor cactus garden which has been in Balboa Park since 1935. Another favorite outdoor space for visitors is the Japanese Friendship Garden.
Locals love wandering around the historic Spanish Colonial Revival buildings. Walking in Balboa park is like walking in a different country and era altogether. There are also 17 museums within Balboa Park. These range from the San Diego Natural History Museum to the San Diego Air and Space Museum and everything in between.
Check the calendar of events happening at Balboa Park during your trip to San Diego. There are frequent events and arts shows offered for the public. Some of the best public events are their symphony orchestra concerts and the free weekly concerts every Sunday in Spreckels Organ Pavilion. Balboa Park even has its own Old Globe Theater for live theater performances.
Visit the World-Famous San Diego Zoo
Balboa Park is also the location of the world-famous San Diego Zoo, although a visit to the zoo is worth an entire day itself. The Zoo was originally built as part of the California Expositions within Balboa Park and has evolved to the conservation center that it is today. It is the most visited zoo in the United States with over 4 million visitors per year.
The San Diego Zoo is one of the best places to visit in San Diego and is the largest zoo in North America. It houses over 3500 animals from 650 different species. The zoo is one of the pioneers in the concept of cageless exhibits, where natural barriers like moats keep the animals safely in their habitats. The zoo is also unique in how it tries to replicate the natural habitat as much as possible. In fact, most of the animal habitats feature several species that coexist in the wild.
Its claim to fame is that it was one of the few zoos in the world with a successful giant panda breeding program. Conservation is at the center of the zoo's mission both breeding and reintroducing animals into the wild. The Zoo dedicates lots of time and money on habitat conservation projects in 45 countries all over the globe. In fact, they have reintroduced over 44 species back into the wild, including the almost-extinct California condor.
It's a thrilling and educational experience to spend the day at the zoo and the San Diego Zoo is one of the best in the world.
Have a Wild Experience at San Diego Zoo Safari Park
Photo by kelkel118 on Pixabay
The Safari Park works closely with the San Diego Zoo. However, it is located in a different part of San Diego and offers visitors an entirely different experience. Originally, the Safari Park served as a breeding center for the nearby San Diego Zoo. There are still breeding programs that take place at the Safari Park but over time it also developed into the natural environment zoo that it is today.
The San Diego Zoo Safari Park is actually an open-air animal habitat and one of the most unique zoos in the world. The animals live in free-range enclosures which groups animals from similar habitats together. There are also large tiger and lion habitats, though these are separated from the rest of the animals for obvious reasons!
To experience the park and see the animals, visitors can take various types of Safaris, mostly by vehicle. However, there is even have the option to zipline over the enclosures. Imagine getting a bird's eye view of the amazing animals below you!
Believe it or not, the wild animal park offers the opportunity to do overnight tent stays in the park. You'll get to do Safari walks and to see the animals after the crowds have gone home. Guests can sleep in Safari tents right next to an animal enclosure with rhinos, giraffes, antelope, and more. We just wonder how you'll get any sleep just knowing that these majestic creatures are all around you.
The Safari Park's main goal is species conservation. One point of pride for the Safari Park was their role in rejuvenating the population of endangered California Condors. In 1987, there were just 22 Condors in the wild. Thanks to the breeding program and conservation efforts, the population is now 369, with 191 Condors reintroduced into the wild.
Explore the La Jolla Caves
Photo by CyndS on Pixabay
In contrast with the soft sand beaches in the Southern part of San Diego county, the northern coastline is full of rocky cliffs, pebble beaches, and lots of caves. The La Jolla Caves are a unique San Diego attraction in this part of the coastline. They are close to nearby La Jolla Cove and most are only accessible by water.
Each of the La Jolla Caves has its own name. One of the fun things to do in La Jolla is to take a kayak tour through the largest of the seven caves, called Clam Cave. The only one that can be reached by foot is Sunny Jim Cave because back in 1902, a local resident carved a footpath down the cave. There are 145 steps but the view at the end is worth it!
A Stunning Viewpoint at Cabrillo National Monument
One of the San Diego attractions that is a bit off the beaten path is Cabrillo National Monument. The monument is located at the place where the first European set foot on the American West Coast. It is named after Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo who landed here in 1542. If your San Diego vacation takes place in October, you might be able to catch the reenactment of the historic landing.
The area is worth visiting simply because of the view of San Diego's harbor and skyline. You can also visit nearby old military barracks and a lighthouse which has stood at the spot since 1855.
Wander Along the Embarcadero
Photo by larsen9236 on Pixabay
Embarcadero means 'landing place' in Spanish so it follows that this is also the main harbour of San Diego. Most of the large cruise ships come into port in the San Diego Embarcadero.
The Embarcadero is an area around the San Diego harbour where visitors can see historic boats and museums dedicated to Maritime history. The area also includes a public park with shopping, splash fountains and lawn areas perfect for a picnic. Be sure to check the events at the Embarcadero during your San Diego vacation. The district hosts food and wine festivals, Symphony concerts, as well as the Big Bay Boom 4th of July celebration. One of the most interesting festivals which takes place at the Embarcadero is the U.S. Sand Sculpting Challenge and Art Expo event.
A Water-Filled Adventure at SeaWorld San Diego
If you're interested in seeing some spectacular sea life, Sea World should be at the top of your list. There is an abundance of sea life at this huge aquarium and park. In addition to the wildlife, visitors can also enjoy theme park rides and roller coasters.
The main attraction at SeaWorld is of course the killer whales. In 2017, SeaWorld ended their Killer Whale shows in which the animals were trained to perform tricks. There is now an educational show which teaches the audience about these magnificent creatures.
Climb Aboard the USS Midway Museum
Photo by PublicDomainPictures on Pixabay
The USS Midway Museum gives visitors the chance to board a retired aircraft carrier in the San Diego Embarcadero. This ship was built right after World War II and was the largest aircraft carrier in the world until 1955. The ship saw action in the Vietnam War and Operation Desert Storm in the 1990s.
The Museum now houses military aircraft and other exhibits. Guests can see what life was like for the military personnel on board an aircraft carrier. You can tour the sleeping quarters, engine rooms, control rooms, and more.
Visitors love the interactive exhibits on the USS Midway Museum like the flight simulator. There is even the opportunity to climb aboard some of the aircraft on display at the museum.
Go Back in Time in San Diego Old Town
Old Town San Diego is the preserved historic center that was the site of the first settlements in San Diego. Spanish missionaries founded Mission San Diego de Alcala and the San Diego Presidio in 1769. The town slowly grew around these early roots. San Diego became a city long before California was part of the United States. This means that the old town still has a lot of Mexican influences in its architecture, shops and restaurants.
Around the 1860s, people started migrating to what is present-day downtown San Diego, and more or less abandoned Old Town. This is good news for history buffs since it means that many of the original buildings are still standing. Old Town became a community frozen in time. Later, other historical buildings were relocated and are preserved as museums in San Diego Old Town.
Nowadays, Old Town is a great place for San Diego tourism because it's full of restaurants, museums, and specialty shops. The neighborhood is still the central place for celebrating traditional Mexican holidays. If your San Diego vacation happens during Cinco de Mayo or Dia de Los Muertos, you should head to Old Town.
Check the schedule of events in Old Town to see if there are any festivals during your trip. For example, Old Town hosts an annual stagecoach days celebration in July and August. Visitors can take part in activities that show what everyday life was like in San Diego's past.
Experience the Island Lifestyle of Coronado Beach
Photo by nathanhill0070 on Pixabay
Coronado Beach is located on Coronado Island near the San Diego Bay. You'll have to drive across the 200-foot tall Coronado bridge which gives you a great view over San Diego. Another fun way to get to Coronado is by using the Coronado Ferry or water taxi directly from downtown.
Once you've reached Coronado, you'll see that the island is almost like a mini-community within San Diego. It has a bustling main street called Orange Avenue which is full of shops. Don't miss a visit to the Hotel del Coronado, a chic hotel which provides an amazing backdrop during sunset. Beer fans will enjoy a stop at the Coronado Brewing Company, one of the west coast's award-winning craft breweries.
It's easy to see what San Diego is such a great place to visit. Regardless of how you spend your time in this exciting city, you're sure to have a memorable time!

Originally built in 1974 to provide safe recreation passage at a dam, Confluence Park was rebuilt in 1995 to lower the regulatory flood plain. As a result, a large land area of lower downtown Denver was made available for development, spurring nearly $4 billion in private development. It is a low-maintenance run of river urban park with virtually no operation cost.
Grouted rock construction withstands significant flooding without damage.
Continuously moving waters resist unwanted sediment accumulation.
Downstream reach is stable and has experienced no significant bed degradation.
The open and straightforward rapids dissipate 8 feet of hydraulic drop over 400 feet and are rated a Class III by whitewater guidebooks. The park has been in use for 30 years by skilled and unskilled users without serious injury.


Abstract: Introduction: Mammographic density is a strong risk factor for breast cancer, but it is unknown whether density at first breast cancer diagnosis and changes during follow-up influences risk of non-simultaneous contralateral breast cancer (CBC).Methods: We collected mammograms for CBC-patients (cases, N = 211) and unilateral breast cancer patients (controls, N = 211), individually matched on age and calendar period of first breast cancer diagnosis, type of adjuvant therapy and length of follow-up (mean follow-up time: 8.25 years). The odds of CBC as a function of changes of density during follow-up were investigated using conditional logistic regression, adjusting for non-dense area at diagnosis.Results: Patients who experienced ≥10% absolute decrease in percent density had a 55% decreased odds of CBC (OR = 0.45 95% CI: 0.24 to 0.84) relative to patients who had little or no change in density from baseline to first follow-up mammogram (mean = 1.6 (SD = 0.6) years after diagnosis), whereas among those who experienced an absolute increase in percent density we could not detect any effect on the odds of CBC (OR = 0.83 95% CI: 0.24 to 2.87). Conclusion: Decrease of mammographic density within the first two years after first diagnosis is associated with a significantly reduced risk of CBC, this potential new risk predictor can thus contribute to decision-making in follow-up strategies and treatment. © 2013 Sandberg et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.


Poroshenko and Volker also stressed the need for the immediate release of all Ukrainian hostages.
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko and U.S. Special Representative for Ukraine Negotiations Kurt Volker have discussed the prospects for the deployment of a UN peacekeeping mission in Donbas.
In the framework of the 73rd session of the UN General Assembly, the parties discussed the latest developments in Donbas and the prospects for the deployment of a multinational peacekeeping mission under the aegis of the United Nations in its occupied part, according to the presidential press service.
Particular attention was paid to cooperation in the field of security and defense between Ukraine and USA, as well as interaction on further implementation of reforms in Ukraine.
Volker also informed the Ukrainian president of increasing the sanctions pressure against the Russian Federation, in particular including another 12 Russian companies into the sanctions list.

[R5890 : page 133]
"JESUS DIED AND PAID IT ALL"
THE Ransom of our race by our Savior is a matter of deep interest to the Lord's people, and one which apparently is very difficult to understand clearly. We view the subject from different standpoints. All see the same thing, but all do not see the details.
God might have told us that He had arranged a way by which Justice and the dignity of His Court of the Universe could be upheld and man nevertheless be released from the sentence of death imposed upon him six thousand years ago. There was no need of His telling us anything about the Ransom. It would have been sufficient for us that God should have told us that He had attended to the matter properly. But instead, God reasons with us in the Scriptures, and there explains the process of His Government by which He could be just and yet be the Justifier of sinners. This process which God had all to do with and man had nothing to do with is Scripturally styled the Ransom—the giving of the perfect life of Jesus to be the full, complete offset for the forfeited life of Adam, the father of our race.
From this viewpoint, if one went no further into the matter, one might say, "Jesus has died and the world has been ransomed"—just as the Scriptures speak of Jesus, even while He was in the flesh, as being the Messiah, the King of Glory. Even when He was a babe the angels sang, "Unto you is born this day in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ [Messiah] the Lord." Their statements included not only the babe and what had already been accomplished in His birth, but all the great work which He would do in the future. As a matter of fact, the babe was merely called a Savior because He would in the future save His people from their sins. The babe [R5891 : page 133] was merely called the Anointed—Messiah—because it was foreseen of God that He would make a consecration at Jordan, be begotten and anointed of the Holy Spirit, finish His work of sacrifice and be exalted to Heavenly glory, not only, during this Age, for the Church which is His Body, but also for the willing and obedient of the world of mankind during the Millennium. Thus we see that the babe was not the Savior except in the prophetic sense that He was to be the Savior. He was not King except in the sense that He was born and came into the world to that end. He was not the Deliverer then, nor has He even yet delivered all His Church; whereas, after the deliverance of the Church, comes the deliverance of the world from the reign of Sin and Death.
Similarly the word ransom may be, and often is, used by us all in a prophetic sense—as including the entire work of Redemption down to the very end of the Millennial Age; as we read, "I will ransom [deliver by a ransom] them from the grave."—Hosea 13:14.
LEGAL PHASE OF RANSOMING WORK
But as we come close to these various questions and analyze them, we see new beauties, new divisions of matters, which at first seem to be indivisible. We see, for instance, that the first step toward ransoming the world was taken when the Logos left the glory which He had with the Father and humbled Himself to become the Man Jesus. The first feature in the ransoming work was our Master's consecration of Himself at Jordan, followed by His life of devotion even unto death. The completion of His sacrifice was the completion of the Ransom- price, but it was not the completion of the Ransom- work. Indeed, the Ransom- work could not even begin until the Ransom- price had been provided—not paid.
We sometimes have spoken of Jesus as having paid the Ransom when He died, but such expression was not accurate. The price of obedience to the Father's will was death, and our Lord's death constitutes the price. In one sense Jesus paid it when He surrendered His life; but in another and more accurate sense, He did not pay it, but merely placed it in the hands of the Father as the price to be appropriated, or made applicable later.
The Ransom-price has been in the hands of Divine Justice—in the Father's hands—ever since Jesus died, but only as a deposit, because the time had not come for it to be paid over officially. If the Divine Plan had been for Jesus to take possession of the world and to set up His Kingdom at Pentecost, then it would have been proper for Him to have paid over to the Father the Ransom-price fully and completely—appropriating it as the offset to Father Adam's sin and sentence on behalf of all his race. But had that price been formally paid over, the proper and logical thing would have been for the Father to put the whole world immediately into the hands of Jesus, and for the Millennial Reign to begin.
RANSOM-PRICE DEPOSITED WITH DIVINE JUSTICE
There was, however, another feature to the Divine Plan: God did not wish to turn over the Kingdom to Jesus until the great Seventh Day, the Millennium. He did wish that during the intervening more than eighteen centuries a Church class should be called out from amongst the world, to be the Bride and Joint-heir of His Son in the Kingdom. Hence the Ransom- price for the sins of the whole world was merely left unappropriated, while Jesus dealt with the Church.
And since the Father's Plan for the Church was that they should sacrifice or surrender their earthly interests and receive, instead, Heavenly interests and the Divine nature, therefore it was not necessary to give the Church Restitution—the thing which the Ransom-price will secure for the world of mankind. Hence, instead of giving the Church a direct share in the Ransom-price, which would mean Restitution, the Lord's provision for them is different; namely, an imputation of merit covering their blemishes, so that they might present their bodies a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God.
All, therefore, that Jesus has done with the Ransom-price is to impute a share of that price as covering the shortcomings of those who desire to become His disciples and joint-heirs. He has not appropriated it to them actually, as in Restitution, but by imputation—justifying [R5891 : page 134] them from all sin, and thus permitting them to be accepted of the Father as members of the House of Sons, by the begetting of the Holy Spirit.
And how beautiful is the thought that, when shortly our Lord will pay over the Ransom-price for the sins of the whole world, and have the world immediately turned over to Him for Restitution work, the Church will be with Him in glory sharing His honor and His Throne, as now they share in His sufferings and His ignominy!
PRACTICAL PHASE OF RANSOMING WORK
When the Ransom-price shall then have been given to justice in exchange for the world of mankind, and when the purchased world of mankind shall have been turned over to the Purchaser, the legal phase of the Ransoming work of Jesus and the satisfaction of Justice in the release of mankind from the penalty of death will be complete. Then, however, another part of the ransoming will begin and will operate; namely, the giving of the benefits of the ransom to Adam and his family. This phase of the Ransom- work will continue for the thousand years of Messiah's Kingdom, bringing Restitution to man and his earthly home—to all the willing and obedient of Adam's race—the unwilling being destroyed in the Second Death.
Then the Ransomer will have completed His work of ransoming the human family in its two phases: First, its legal phase, the satisfaction of Divine Justice by the giving of a life for a life; second, its practical phase, the restoring or recovering or delivering of the redeemed from the bondage of Sin and Death to the liberty of the sons of God.—Romans 8:21.

Q: Azure DevOps Artifacts - Retention policy - static date I need to provide packages for a period of 4 year
Is there a way to set a static retention, keep all packages newer then X years
Maximum number of versions per package: 5000(max), if I set it at max it can help but is not 100% correct, and we will have some garbage in the future
Days to keep recently downloaded packages: 365(max) this is the reason we temporary lost one package, it was not set to 365, this can help but is not sure
I disabled the retention for now, but I will like to have a retention policy in the future
Retention base on regex will be nice :)

A: This is how Artifact Retention policy works: When the package versions exceed Maximum number of versions per package, the policy will check the exceeded versions, if there are versions downloaded during Days to keep recently downloaded packages, the policy won't delete them, otherwise the exceeded versions will be deleted.
For example:
I have two feeds with 16 versions of a package, both settings as below:

If I never download any versions, the exceeded oldest ones will be deleted:

If I download the oldest two, then the oldest two won't be deleted temporarily, they will be deleted after Days to keep recently downloaded packages:

The Feminist Voice in Parliment: Dr Harini Amarasuriya
By Sanjana Ravi
Everystory Sri Lanka presents the first thirty stories from our ongoing work to create a compendium of Sri Lankan women's stories — featuring those whose lives, work, and experiences have shaped and are shaped by Sri Lanka's social, political, and cultural contexts.
From the Stories of Sri Lankan Women Archive — Dr Harini Amarasuriya
Illustration by Danushri Welikala- danushri.welikala@gmail.com
A name well-known in the field of academia is now seated in Parliament as a breath of fresh feminist air, and raising a voice for Sri Lankan women. Dr Harini Amarasuriya, a former Senior Lecturer of the Department of Social Studies of the Open University of Sri Lanka, made a decision to switch careers and engage in a role that is more in the public eye. This decision, which she refers to as a "leap," is not one that was made lightly, nor was it one that she foresaw. It eventually led her to become a Member of Parliament upon accepting the Jathika Jana Balawegaya's National Seat nomination to enter the 16th Parliament of Sri Lanka in August 2020.
Born into a middle-class family, Dr Harini recalls "feeling incredibly lucky and privileged to have had a wonderful childhood." Dr Harini went to a private school in Colombo and then received scholarships to study firstly in India for her undergraduate education and then in Edinburgh for her doctoral studies. These experiences influenced her strong commitment to the need for access to quality education for all and the importance of a strong public education system.
Growing up as a child with what she describes as "ordinary dreams" for the time, Dr Harini has challenged and resisted the system in more ways than she could ever imagine. Through her activism, she began creating ripples as early as 2011 when she and colleagues from the Federation of University Teachers Association launched a trade action union, which drew national attention. The protest that was launched to demand higher salaries and retain the best minds in the country grew into a broader struggle on education reform.
Their campaign slogan "6% Save Education" reflected UNESCO's standard criteria on what a government must spend on education. The following year, they began a 100-day strike — the longest strike in Sri Lanka at that time — that developed into a collective struggle joined by other trade unions and civil society. Their collective struggle mobilized a space where people could express some form of resistance, especially amidst a political climate where many people were afraid to speak their minds. A community of people came alongside 4000 academics, who marched for five days from Galle to Colombo in their symbolic orange t-shirt bearing their slogan to create a significant change in the education system. This movement went on to set a precedent for other protests and movements that would eventually take place over the next decade.
Dr Harini doesn't think of her career change as a leap from activism to politics, as she believes that her activism was political. She also believes that politics isn't about being aligned with a party, but about resisting power. To her, resistance is about holding those in power accountable and challenging something that is not right.
Her motivation to enter the formal political space was done as an act of solidarity and she describes resistance and politics as a space of great intimacy. Over the years, Dr. Harini has built a great network of allies who have been on a unique journey with her and thus have formed unique relationships. She has held steadfast to the belief of standing together during the good and the bad, and, when the time came for her to act on her belief with regards to women's participation and representation in politics, she did what she felt was right.
While issues faced by Sri Lankan women were not a popular topic to be raised in Parliament, Dr Harini took the stage to voice for the voiceless. In her maiden speech in Parliament, she left an impact by raising issues concerning women's economic contribution to the economy, specifically the "unpaid care economy," referring to women's contribution in the household. Dr. Harini has also been one of the few Members of Parliament, who have been advocating on the frontlines to demand justice for Sri Lankan migrant workers impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.
Dr Harini currently is serving as a Member of Parliament and continues to advocate for reforms in education, gender and development.
(Sanjana Ravi is a feminist and Women and Gender Rights advocate. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Economics, International Studies and Women & Gender Studies from Iowa State University, USA. She is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Law through the University of London and aims to pursue a legal career to strengthen her advocacy for women and children.)

A PAIR of Slovak military officials were among those blocked from entering Crimea as part of an observer mission to neighbouring Ukraine, as Prime Minister Robert Fico and other top Slovak officials call for a diplomatic solution to the biggest crisis between Russia and the West since the end of the Cold War.
"Any use of military force or any invasion has no place in the modern world," Fico said at a March 2 press conference.
Following Russia's occupation of Ukraine's Crimean peninsula, the Slovak Foreign Affairs Ministry on March 4 called on Russia to withdraw its troops to its bases and refrain from further intervention in Ukraine.
"Any further escalation of tensions and continuing violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine will present a serious threat to international peace and security," the ministry wrote in an official statement published by the TASR newswire.
In line with the outcome of the special session of the Council of the European Union on Ukraine, held on March 3, the ministry condemned the violation of sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine by acts of aggression.
Meanwhile, 18 Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) states, including Slovakia, decided on March 5 to send 35 unarmed military personnel to Ukraine based on the country's request to send inspectors to "dispel concerns about military activities".
Defence Ministry spokeswoman Martina Balleková confirmed for TASR that Slovakia dispatched the two members of the armed forces. That observer mission was blocked from entering Crimea on March 6, according to Reuters.
"The participation of our soldiers in the international inspection group represents our contribution towards the de-escalation of tension in Ukraine," Defence Minister Martin Glváč said.
Prior to the announcement of the observer mission, a group of foreign policy experts issued a joint statement charging that the government's response was not strong enough. Slovakia should clearly declare its interest in Russia ending its military build-up and clearly state that Russia's intervention is unacceptable, their joint declaration issued on March 3 said.
Ondrejcsák, director of the Center for European and North-Atlantic Relations, an NGO focusing on international issues, said Slovakia must declare that it cannot accept military operations on the territory of its neighbouring state or occupation of part of the Ukrainian territory.
"It is in direct contradiction with our most important values as well as our strategic and security interests," Ondrejcsák told The Slovak Spectator on March 3.
As to the main challenges the V4 countries face in connection with recent developments in Crimea, Tomasz Chłoń, the Polish ambassador to Slovakia, told The Slovak Spectator that the immediate tasks have more to do with "helping Ukraine rather than our own internal risks: to prevent an escalation of the conflict in Ukraine and to help the Ukrainians quickly prepare for stabilising the situation politically and economically, and then starting necessary reforms".
Slovakia's Security Council after its special session on March 3 has fortified the protection of its borders with Ukraine.
"It is mainly to prevent illegal migration through our borders," Fico said.
Slovakia has not recorded any increase in visa applications from Ukraine, the SITA newswire reported.
Vladimír Baláž, chief researcher at the Institute of Prognostics of the Slovak Academy of Sciences (SAV), explained that if the conflict in Ukraine is to last several months or even years, or if Ukraine ends up on the verge of bankruptcy, Slovakia could expect Ukrainian migration to increase.
Slovakia will take in approximately 20 Ukrainians who suffered injuries during the demonstrations in Kiev, while the country is ready to accept a couple hundred migrants in areas located close to the borders, Fico said on March 2.
According to Chłoń, there's a working group of representatives of the ministries of interior of the V4, and it is coordinating closely on preparations for a potential influx.
"Maybe we are not the richest countries of Europe, but we are affluent enough to provide adequate resources," Chłoń told The Slovak Spectator adding that "we are, in a way, historically obliged to help refugees because we know from our own experiences what it means to have to run away: 1956, 1968 and 1981".
In responses to the Russian occupation of Crimea many have referred to the 1968 invasion of then-Czechoslovakia by the Warsaw Pact armies.
When asked about such parallel Ondrejcsák has said that every parallel is somehow a simplification but "certainly there are some shared signs".
Both cases, Ondrejcsák said, involve a military operation against a sovereign state and military occupation of a territory. In the case of Czechoslovakia, however, it was a total occupation and a "change of internal political context" while in "Ukraine it is only the occupation of part of the territory, aimed at destabilising the whole political and societal situation".
According to Ondrejcsák, Ukraine's security is inseparably linked with the safety of central Europe.
However, Ondrejcsák does not think that Russia would become so "unwise that it would escalate the conflict to that level, which would mean a direct confrontation with NATO".
Slovakia's most urgent interests in Ukraine involve energy, Fico said on March 2, adding that Slovakia has not recorded any problems with supplies of gas from Ukraine thus far. Slovakia currently has 1.77 billion cubic metres of gas in storage, which, according to Fico, should be enough for five months if supplies were to be cut off, SITA reported.
"The weakest point with direct and rapid impact on our economy seems to be the transit of gas and oil," said ČSOB Chief Economist Marek Gábriš, as quoted by TASR.
About 75 percent of gas and oil transported to central Europe from Russia goes through Ukraine, he said.
"Slovakia's dependence is even higher and impacts of the previous gas crisis are still in all our minds," Gábriš added.
Ukraine's international bond ratings were at CCC, one step away from bankruptcy, Baláž said. Unless quick and substantial help from international institutions like the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is provided to Ukraine, the country might really go bankrupt. The United States and the European Union have pledged $1 billion and about €11 billion in aid, respectively.
"I would see, rather, danger in the fact that the markets react nervously to every bankruptcy," Baláž told The Slovak Spectator, adding that Ukraine is a relatively large country with more than 40 million people, and if such a country goes bankrupt then all emerging markets would feel the impact.
Slovakia is no longer an emerging market, but investors might also worry about its stability as it is a small country and thus the risk of increased borrowing costs might rise, he added.

Sources said that Mr Parrikar, who has been resting at his private residence near Panaji, ever since his return from the US on September 6, had been admitted to the same clinic in Candolim once before earlier this week.
Deputy Speaker of Goa legislative assembly, Michael Lobo told reporters that Mr Parrikar had been admitted to the clinic, but refused to divulge details about his health.
"He has been admitted to the clinic for treatment," said Mr Lobo, who is a legislator from the Calangute assembly constituency, where the village of Candolim is located.
Mr Parrikar also did not attend the traditional Ganesh Chaturthi puja at his ancestral home in the village of Parra in North Goa, a ritual he has been observing for decades.
The Chief Minister earlier this month, returned from the US -- for the third time in six months -- where he was undergoing treatment for this ailment.


My favorite BTS tips are to plan for more than I think I'll need, and to model, model, and model again.
Make a quick call to each student/family the afternoon before school begins. Even when just leaving a greeting message on answering machines, families are so appreciative of the personal contact. Let children hear your voice, tell them 1 fun thing they will do first day, and give 1 tip like bring your best smile tomorrow.
Go in early and get your classroom organized so that when meetings roll around next week, you are not stressed.
Love the classroom it is so simple and cute.
Right now the room look incredible but as soon as the kids come in, that will change.

La focaccia con le cipolle alla genovese (a fugàssa co-e çiòule in lingua genovese) è una variante della comune focaccia genovese.

Storia
La focaccia con le cipolle è un alimento di antiche tradizioni nei quartieri più popolari di Genova e colazione usuale degli scaricatori del porto perché capace di saziare molto, in quanto la cipolla blocca i recettori dello stimolo della fame.
La focaccia con la cipolla è un alimento molto economico ed è possibile prepararla anche in casa.
A Genova molte persone mangiano la focaccia con le cipolle per colazione, intinta nel caffellatte, o al bar con un bicchiere di vino bianco (u gianchettu).

Ingredienti e preparazione
L'impasto è come quello per la focaccia genovese: farina, acqua, lievito di birra, olio e sale.
Si usa l'olio d'oliva in quantità che può variare rispetto al peso della farina: più olio si aggiunge e più la focaccia viene unta.
Per farla indorare molto bisogna aggiungere del malto.
La pasta va lavorata col mattarello e tirata una sfoglia il più sottile possibile, al massimo mezzo centimetro, delle dimensioni della teglia da forno che si usa e una volta posizionata nella teglia unta d'olio, bisogna schiacciarla il più possibile, con la punta delle dita. Le cipolle, abbondanti, tagliate sottile, crude, irrorate con un poco d'olio e sale, si aggiungono a lievitazione avvenuta, prima di mettere nel forno.
La temperatura del forno e i tempi di cottura variano dal tipo di forno che si usa: in media, forno ad alta temperatura per il tempo minimo per rendere cotta la farina.
La morbidezza dipende dal tempo di cottura, meno si cuoce e più rimane molle.

Abbinamento ai vini
Si accompagna a un vino bianco, secco, servito fresco:
Pigato
Lumassina
Polceverasco bianco
Cinque Terre Vermentino

Q: What is the correct format to use Unique in _sql_constraints in OpenERP? I have tried unique in sql_constaints in OpenERP(Odoo) using two different methods using flower brackets {} or square brackets [].
Both works fine.
Which one is correct?
_sql_constraints = {
    ('email_uniq', 'unique(email)', ' Please enter Unique Email id.')
    }

(or)
_sql_constraints = [
    ('email_uniq', 'unique(email)', ' Please enter Unique Email id.')
    ]

P.S: But if I want to use more than a constraint it accepting only square brackets [] like this example.
_sql_constraints = [
    ('email_uniq', 'unique(email)', ' Please enter Unique Email id.'),
    ('contact_uniq', 'unique(contact)', ' Please enter Unique Mobile no.')
    ]

What is the reason behind it?

A: The correct one is square brackets syntax.

*

*you can grep on _sql_constraints and see it is what is always used,

*in the ORM code in openerp/models.py we can see that the default value is an empty list:
    _sql_constraints = []
    #...
        cls._local_sql_constraints = cls.__dict__.get('_sql_constraints', [])

*in Odoo 8.0 documentation it is said:

list of (name, sql_definition, message) triples defining SQL constraints to execute when generating the backing table.

In python2 you can get a list with the syntax [].
The syntax {} either creates:

*

*a dictionary if it is empty {} or if there is keys values like this: {'keyA': 'valueA', 'keyB': 'valueB'},

*as of python 2.7 a set if instantiated like this: {'value1', 'valueB', 42}

A: In odoo the syntax for sql constraint is list of (name, sql_definition, message). for example
_sql_constraints = [
    ('name_uniq', 'unique(name)', 'Custom Warning Message'),
    ('contact_uniq', 'unique(contact)', 'Custom Warning Message')
]

you can give more then one sql constraint in list of tuples.
when you define a dictionary with out key & value python treat it as set. and set can be itrable.

Q: Can you reference a SASS function from another file without importing everything? I'm very new to SASS and well web development altogether, I apologise in advance if this is obvious. I'm tyring to reference a function from one SASS file from another. I don't really want to import it as it would be import once again in the parent file.
My file structure:
stylesheets/custom.scss
stylesheets/scss/_auth.scss
stylesheets/scss/_account.scss
I have some functions in main.scss which I want to use from _auth.scss for example. The problem I'm having is that the custom.scss imports the other scss to combine them. I didn't want to make cross references.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Once again I'm very new to this.

A: You can move the function and mixins in one file. And import them in main SCSS file(on the top) where all SCSS is getting imported.
By doing this you won't need to import functions separately in other files.
e.g:
custom.scss already imported main.scss. Functions declared in main.scss will available in _auth.scss file also.
stylesheets/custom.scss
  @import 'main.scss';
  @import 'scss/_auth.scss';


get explained outside my head very well.

Robot je stroj, ki ga nadzoruje računalnik in ga lahko programiramo, da samostojno opravlja določeno opravilo. Robote pogosto uporabljamo v industriji za prenašanje materiala ali za izvajanje ponavljajočih se opravil. Tako lahko na primer robotsko roko, pritrjeno na delovno mizo, uporabljamo za barvanje delov stroja ali sestavljanje elektronskih vezij. Drugi roboti so zasnovani za delo v človeku nevarnih okoljih: na primer pri deaktiviranju bomb ali pri raziskovanju vesolja oz. morskih globin. Nekateri roboti so opremljeni s tipali, na primer za dotik ali svetlobo, in so programirani tako, da lahko na osnovi podatkov z njih sprejemajo enostavne odločitve.

Etimologija izraza
Izraz »robot« se je prvič pojavil v gledališki igri Karla Čapka, R.U.R. (Rossumovi Univerzalni Roboti), leta 1920, verjetno pa si ga je izmislil pisateljev brat, slikar Josef Čapek.

Roboti v umetnosti

Roboti, opremljeni z umetno inteligenco, so zelo razširjen element v žanru znanstvene fantastike, bodisi kot protagonisti, bodisi kot antagonisti ali povsem stranski liki. Rusko-ameriški pisatelj Isaac Asimov je znan kot posebej plodovit pisec zgodb z roboti v glavnih vlogah, ki je v svojih delih pogosto raziskoval interakcijo med inteligentnimi roboti in človeško družbo. V njih je med drugim opisal tri zakone robotike kot zbirko ukazov, ki naj bi bili vprogramirani v robote da bi čim bolj zmanjšali tveganje za ljudi. V svoji kratki zgodbi »Lažnivec!« je tudi prvi uporabil izraz »robotika« za področje tehnike, ki se ukvarja s konstruiranjem robotov.

Ontario reports single-day drop in new COVID-19 cases with fewer than 2,600 infections logged
Toronto police seek two suspects in murder of Vaughan man
CTV Toronto Published Saturday, June 13, 2015 4:00PM EDT Last Updated Saturday, June 13, 2015 6:25PM EDT
Toronto police are looking for two suspects in the murder of a Vaughan man whose body was found three days after he disappeared.
Clyde Marshall, 36, and Sabrina Chouart, 27, are both wanted for first-degree murder, police said Saturday.
The suspects are wanted in connection with the death of Sina Parsi, a 32-year-old roofing contractor from Vaughan. Parsi disappeared Tuesday after attending a local soccer game.
His body was found three days later, in the Jane Street and St. Clair Avenue West area.
Marshall is described as a white male, standing six feet tall and weighing 145 pounds. He has brown hair, blue eyes, and a thin build. He has tattoos on the right side of his neck, as well as a tattoo on his right arm.
Chouart is described as a white female, standing five-foot-seven and weighing 130 pounds. She has brown, shoulder-length hair and a thin build.
Police believe the suspects are also travelling with a large, brown dog.
"If they are listening to this broadcast, they should take points to surrender themselves," Detective Shawn Mahoney said.
Police did not release a cause of death, or say whether Parsi and the suspects were known to each other.
"These individuals have ties to the Gatineau, Quebec area and New Brunswick," Mahoney said. "We believe the suspects have at had at least a 24- to 48-hour window to leave the area."
Police say they have a motive for the murder, but are not releasing it at this time.
On Thursday, officers traced Parsi's cellphone signal to a strip mall near Jane Street and Eglinton Avenue West, where they found his car. His wallet was found in nearby Smyth Park.
Parsi's family said police told them security footage from near the strip mall showed Parsi entering a bank, withdrawing money, and walking toward a wooded area.
Police could not confirm how much money Parsi withdrew, or if money was missing from the wallet when it was found.
Speaking to CTV Toronto on Friday, Parsi's wife described her husband as her "best friend."
"He's everything to me," she said.
Anyone with information in the case is asked to contact Toronto police at 416-808-7400 or 416-808-7400. Or to call Crime Stoppers at 416-222-8477.
Sabrina Chouart, 27, and Clyde Marshall, 36, are seen in this undated photo.
This photo released by Toronto police shows Clyde Marshall, 36, and Sabrina Chouart, 27, who are both wanted for 1st degree murder.
This photo released by Toronto police shows a brown dog that may be with Chouart and Marshall.

Q: Thread completion in Android I have some kotlin code like the following in an android app:
Thread(Runnable {
    while (true) {
        Thread.sleep(100)
        ... do useful work ...
        if (checkCurrentCondition()) {
            ... do final useful work ...
            return
        }
    }
}).start()

Here is my question: Is there some way (a callback function or some other mechanism) by which I can know in the main thread, that the background thread above has finished its job?

A: You may use AsyncTask or ThreadPoolExecutor. AsyncTask has the onPostExecute() method using which you can get the execution result right into UI Thread and do your job after. Also there is Looper/Handler usages for ThreadPoolExecutor to communicate between UI/Worker threads.
For detailed information's look here

A: If this is in an Activity, you could call runOnUiThread { doWhatever() } from the Thread - it'll hold a reference to the Activity, so don't do this in a long-running thread.
If you create a Handler with Handler(Looper.getMainLooper()) then you can post Runnables to it - basically the same as runOnUiThread except you're not holding onto an Activity, and you can do things like delay and cancel those posted messages.
If you already have some looping activity going on (so you can basically check if the thread's completed) then you could do anything from having a boolean done flag that the thread sets (make it @Volatile so the main thread sees the change) to all the stuff in java.util.concurrent like Futures and the like. Really depends on what you're doing.
Posting a Runnable to the main thread looper is the easiest general way to make a thing happen. But again, if that thread is creating any data in memory that the main thread needs to see, as always you need to handle synchronization, which is its own topic!


Please note: This blog has been updated for summer tabling activism [see the Take Action section below].
The 600 members of the Indigenous community of Cuninico in Peru's Amazon region have a spiritual relationship with the Marañón river. They depend on it for drinking, washing and preparing food. Fish caught in the river is their main source of protein.
Following an oil spill from a pipeline near a tributary of the river, women like Juana Otejón report that they and their children have suffered debilitating health problems including stomach pains, fever, pain urinating, skin problems and numerous miscarriages.
In the Andean region of Espina, Indigenous communities are also facing a terrifying health crisis.

Marketing, business and cricket enthusiast.
So why are you still doing things this way? Well, it's because you are conditioned to view qualified leads sourced by your sales team as a positive result, rather than wasted time and resources trying to make one sale. If this was 1980, I'd say congratulations. Better yet I'd put on free drinks as your sales team made inroads getting appointments when big companies were spending huge dollars in advertising to achieve the same result.
However, here we are deep into the age of the internet. More connected than we have ever been. Yet so many industry leaders, niche specialists, founders of innovative companies and even marketing managers allow their expertise to stay trapped in their own heads.

TRUMP ENSURES RELIGIOUS LIBERTY ON CAMPUS
Home/Latest News Releases/TRUMP ENSURES RELIGIOUS LIBERTY ON CAMPUS
Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on a new Trump directive on religious liberty:
For many years now, I have said that there is more free speech allowed in your local pub than there is on your local college campus. Ditto for religious rights. It took the Trump administration, led by Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, to assure that colleges and universities catch up to pub standards.
On September 9, DeVos issued a new directive that holds public institutions of higher education accountable for enforcing norms that protect free speech and religious liberty on campus. For example, student-initiated religious clubs on campus cannot be denied the right to set their own strictures regarding membership.
This rule is necessary because attempts to deny religious liberty have been commonplace on the campuses of public universities. In short, "a religious group must have the same rights as other student groups at the public institutions to receive official recognition, to use the institution's facilities, and to receive student fee funds."
In a more sane environment, it would not take the U.S. Department of Education to tell public institutions of higher education that they are expected to enforce the rights encoded in the First Amendment. The administrators would see to it. But because so many college administrators are at least as hostile to free speech and religious liberty as their faculty are—if not more so—the job of protecting basic constitutional rights falls to the executive branch of government.
Though the Department of Education news release announcing this ruling does not say what brought us to this point, it is clear to anyone who has followed this issue that radical gay activists—students, faculty, and administrators—are largely responsible. It is one thing to respect the rights of homosexual students and those confused about their sexual identity; it is quite another to allow activists in their ranks to deny the religious rights of those who disagree with their agenda.
Public colleges and universities are quick to demand federal funding of their programs. They should not be given a dime if they fail to ensure free speech and religious liberty on campus. Kudos to the Trump administration.
