Q: Jquery/CSS target a class in print I'm trying to add some HTML to a class...any ideas why below isn't working?
JQUERY:
$("ul#breadcrumbs li[media='print']").append("Hello");

HTML:

            Supporting Units

            Language of geography

            literacy and learning

A: The selector ul#breadcrumbs li[media='print'] looks for an li with attribute media that has the value print e.g.
. There is no such li in your html so no selection is made and no element appended.

A: You are trying to match a li element with attribute media="print".Currently you don't have a single li element with such attribute.
For the code to work you will need to have

            Supporting Units

            Language of geography

            literacy and learning

$("ul#breadcrumbs li[media='print']").append("Hello");

Live Demo

A: Musa is right. jQuery will only target the tags and tag attributes defined in the html.
To achieve what you want, you can add a class to the element you wish to append
$("ul#breadcrumbs li").append("Hello");
and keep this element hidden in all media types except media @print
.visible-in-print {
    display: none;
}

@media print {
    .visible-in-print {
        display: inline;
    }
}

A: I tried this
$( document ).attr( 'style', '@media print { body { font-size: 15pt } }' )

Senators Barrasso (R-Wy.), Inhofe (R-Okla.), Heller (R-Nev.) and Sessions (R-Ala.), along with 26 of their colleagues, introduced legislation to stop the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) from implementing its guidance on Clean Water Act jurisdiction. In May 2011, the EPA and Corps issued draft guidance on "Identifying Waters Protected by the Clean Water Act." This guidance document, which was sent in final form to the Office of Management and Budget on Feb. 21, 2012, significantly changes and expands what water features are considered protected under the Clean Water Act. The guidance also ignores the fundamental premise in the Act that there are waters subject to the exclusive regulatory jurisdiction of the states. The final guidance is overly broad and expands federal jurisdiction well beyond the intent of Congress and the limitations recognized in recent Supreme Court decisions. This increase in jurisdiction could increase construction costs and project delays with expensive permits that take years to obtain. There is already an extensive backlog of these Section 404 permits, and this will likely add to it. AGC is working with our industry partners in the Waters Advocacy Coalition to gather support for this bill. The coalition sent its letter of support the day the bill was introduced. Click here for the press release. For more info, please contact Scott Berry at (703) 837-5321 or berrys@agc.orgor Leah Pilconis at (703) 837-5332 or pilconisl@agc.org.

I'm logging who makes more than 100k and I'm going to go kidnap their dogs.
I'm a stay at home homemaker.
Now my WIFE makes… under that 100K, so my cats are safe.
I want to be a stay at home homemaker. how many homes have you made so far?
I am a Cognitive Psychologist. I would make almost the same as a heavy equipment operator and have a third of the stress. Years ago I did work as a Camp Director with a little bungalow on the beach and at just 22k a year I felt much richer than I do now.
@Tiki: Only one, but four kids. I'll take the home by itself and YOU can have the four kids!


I'm really interested in operational and clinical applications of social media to help hospital employees get the job done more efficiently and effectively. I've been thinking about creating a list of examples on my blog and may start a new category/sub-category if I can get several examples. So please share your examples with me.

The 1/7th Worcesters arrived in France in 1st April 1915 and had their first experience of trench life around Armentieres, being schooled in the necessary skills by experienced soldiers of the 6th Division. After a fortnight they were allocated an area of front line near to Ploegsteert, covering Ploegsteert Wood. They alternated their duties in the front line with their sister battalion, the 1/8th Worcesters.
No heavy fighting took place at this time, but 'stunts' were carried out to keep the enemy occupied and prevent the enemy moving troops to the action taking place at Aubers Ridge. Each day the enemy's lines were bombarded, and after dark patrols crossed no-man's land to interfere with the enemy's wire to give the impression of an impending attack.
These dummy patrols, in addition to enemy shell-fire, brought a number of casualties with 11 Other Ranks being killed by the end of May 1915. Joseph was one of these casualties, being killed in action on 18th May 1915; he is buried in Calvaire (Essex) Cemetery, about a mile south-east of Ploegsteert.
Tipton Herald 12th June 1915
ANOTHER TIPTON SOLDIER KILLED.
Private J Stackhouse of the 1/7th Worcesters Regiment, who only enlisted last October, has been shot whilst on sentry duty with the Expeditionary Force. Deceased resided at Dudley Port. He was 36 years of age, and leaves a widow and 5 children. He was a moulder by trade.
DUDLEY PORT SOLDIER SHOT THROUGH THE EYE.
A MARRIED MAN WHO FELT HE HAD TO ENLIST.
Private J Stackhouse of the 1/7th Worcesters Regiment Territorials, whose widow and parents reside at Dudley Port, was killed in action in France whilst on sentry duty on May 18th.
The deceased, who had previously served in the Territorials, joined the battalion in October last. He was then 35 years of age, and he leaves a widow and five children. He had always been fond of shooting as a sport, and as the war progressed he felt it his duty to go to the front, telling his wife how he regarded the war. The iniquities of the Germans exasperated him and he was convinced they would serve the English the same as the Belgians. Accordingly he threw up a lucrative position as a moulder at Messrs Richards foundry. He was 36 in February last. He was the eldest of four sons of a very worthy resident in Dudley Port - Mr Francis Philip Stackhouse, a blind seller of this newspaper, whose eyesight was destroyed while blasting limestone. The dead soldier's mother is known far and wide as a maternity nurse. Sidney, one of the deceased soldier's brothers (married with one child) has joined the South Staffs since the war broke out.
The widow and parents of Private Stackhouse have received many letters of sympathy in their bereavement.
THE FUNERAL.
Lieut W. Timis wrote that the deceased soldier was killed at 7.20 am., while on sentry duty, by a shot in the head. He added that the funeral was attended by Captain Chamberlain (representing the officers of the company) and the Colonel of the regiment (representing the headquarters staff). The service was taken by the chaplain. He states that the graves are carefully tended, and an inscribed wooden cross records the burial place of those who have given their lives to the great cause of liberty.
The Rev. Frank Wheeler and the Rev. P Thomas (senior chaplain, Church of England) both wrote to the widow, the latter saying "We all lament the loss of such a brave man and good soldier."
TESTIMONY FROM TIPTON SOLDIER.
Private W. Pearce (whose home address is 69 Albert Street, Princes End) wrote " I was deeply grieved to hear of the death of your husband, which occurred this morning - Tuesday, the 18th inst. He was bright and cheerful and in the best of spirits. We two have been the best of 'pals' since we left Dudley, for he was always quiet and knew how to behave himself like a soldier and a man. He was on sentry and was shot through the eye by a German sniper."
OTHER COMRADES WRITE.
Private Leonard Poole wrote "I was deeply grieved on the morning of May 18th to hear of the death of your dear husband, while doing his duty for King and country, and the sorrow it has brought to you and your dear little children. I had not the slightest idea we would lose a loving 'pal' like Joe in such a short time. The last time we had a stroll together was on a bright sunny Sunday morning, and I don't think I ever saw him in a happier mood, but you never know what a day brings forth in such a struggle. The pain, I think, would be very little as he was killed instantly."
Lance-Corpl. W Jenkins wrote to the parents "Dear Mrs Stackhouse, I have no doubt by now you have been informed officially of your great loss. I desire, on behalf of his comrades, to express our deep sympathy in your sad bereavement. Your son has given what so many have given, and what more of us must inevitably give to our country - his life. It may be some comfort to know he suffered no pain, for he lay where he fell, motionless, and without murmur. He was shot through the eye. I was with him shortly before his death, and he was then the picture of health. Although he had only been with us a short time, he was one of us. We are all of us brothers out here. If anything possible could have been done for him, believe me, it would have been done. He rests near here in a pretty little cemetery we have made, beside some of his comrades who fell before him. His grave is nicely turfed, the soldier's cross at the head. At present it is covered with flowers. I myself will see that there are at least a few upon it while I am near here. I trust you will try and bear the sharpness of this sad affliction bravely, as so many other poor mothers have done, and let us hope he has found everlasting peace with God."
Tipton Herald 26th October 1918
SEQUEL TO A WAR FATALITY.
Francis P Stackhouse (72) of Dudley Port, a blind man, was summoned for using obscene language to his daughter-in-law, Edith Stackhouse.
Complainant stated that her husband was killed in the war three years ago, and she was left with six children. The defendant used the language complained of after knocking at her door with a stick.
Defendant was bound over to keep the peace for six months, and ordered to pay the costs (8s 6d).
ASSAULTING GIRL.
Benjamin Round (43) of 216 Dudley Port, was summoned for assaulting Edith Stackhouse, a daughter of the defendant in the previous case.
Complainant stated that on the 16th October, about 9 p.m., defendant struck her on the neck. The previous witness was her mother. She alleged that her mother had drawn some of her (witness's) War Loan money, and had turned her out. She went to the house of Round to ask for her mother, and Round threatened her and struck her.
Clara Ledbury stated that she saw defendant deliberately strike Miss Stackhouse. Minnie Stackhouse corroborated.
Defendant denied that he struck the girl, and called Harold Stackhouse (a brother of the complainant), aged 10, who was not sure of the night it happened, but denied that the defendant struck the blow.
The Bench inflicted a fine of 25 shillings.

Way forward charted at Tūturu Summit
What we've learned from a crisis Stigma, drug use and welfare in the time of Covid The Wine O'clock myth The sky didn't fall Growing pains: How cannabis impacts pain relief Science Advisor lays down facts on referendum Way forward charted at Tūturu Summit Balancing harm A crucial new harm-reduction tool for New Zealand Happy hour, heavy drinking and hope for the future New campaign spurs drinking rethink Q&A: David Hanna
The Drug Foundation shared what was learnt from a school-based project aiming to change the way schools and services approach drugs and alcohol. John McRae attended the Wellington Summit this February.
In a week when government ministers were locked in urgent talks over a different health crisis, educators met at Parliament to address the impact of alcohol and other drugs on our rangatahi. 160 delegates from across the country attended the Tūturu Summit, sharing their learnings about harm minimisation through effective, school-wide approaches.
Many of the schools and agencies represented at the Summit had helped to create Tūturu, a co-creation of the NZ Drug Foundation, educators and health professionals, and overseen by the Ministry of Education, Ministry of Health, Health Promotion Agency and NZ Police.
Although Tūturu's focus was initially on young people, alcohol and drugs, it quickly developed a broader view.
"As we rolled out Tūturu, it rapidly became apparent that we needed to be looking at the wider role of schools in helping young people make good decisions about the things they do in their lives," says Jim Matheson, Drug Foundation Board member.
"So the focus of Tūturu moved from substances to the core purpose and role of school – and that has to be about helping kids learn for a future in which they have the skills, knowledge and attitudes to look after themselves."
Over the 2 days of the Summit, several schools involved in the pilot shared their journey in adopting change. Some had joined Tūturu because of an immediate need to address issues of alcohol and other drugs in their school populations. Others became involved as part of a longer-term strategy to improve student wellbeing.
"We'd reached a point where we decided to ask for external help," says one deputy principal. "We had the idea that we might find an expert who could tell our whole assembly that drugs are bad, drugs are dangerous and for losers. We hoped that this might convince students. Instead, we were referred to Tūturu and learned there was no quick fix."

All pilot participants soon arrived at the same conclusion – that student wellbeing could not be treated as an add-on or extra part of a school's work. Wellbeing had to be central, embedded in the curriculum and the day-to-day business of the school.
Schools used the Tūturu reflection tool to assess what they were doing and what areas might require attention. The reflection tool takes a comprehensive view:
It addresses a school's values and how visible these are in everything from policies to teaching plans.
It considers levels of student connectedness. What strategies are being used to promote connectedness across the whole student population, both in and out of class?
It asks how the school affirms the mana of Māori students and uplifts Māori voices.
The tool asks what wellbeing initiatives operate in the school, what data is collected and how it is used. It considers the place of student voice in the school and how that informs the school's health and wellbeing practice.
In terms of alcohol and other drug education, schools consider how effective, pedagogically sound and extensive it is.
The tool addresses school support systems and their links to outside agencies.
Finally, it asks whether the school is focused on building a positive environment.
Each Summit presenter addressed one or more of the factors, describing how they had grappled with change to arrive at a better place.
Huntly College students described their school's focus on cultural shift to build positivity, increase connectedness and enhance student voice.
"At our school, students can be authentic, be themselves and find something to do that they love," said a young presenter.
"School's a really positive place," added another. "Teachers aren't caught up on distractions, like whether your uniform is perfect. What's important to teachers and students is whether you are doing OK, whether you're in class and an engaged learner."
"Our school is a school for leaders," said one student as others nodded. "At Huntly College, students play a big part in deciding what happens, including what we learn."
This championing of student voice was a recurring theme of the Summit, beginning with Judge Andrew Becroft's opening address.
"If we really want to improve education outcomes, we need to get input from the people it affects most directly – children and young people," said the Children's Commissioner and shared a student quote: "I am a library. Quiet but filled with knowledge. It's dumb that I'm not asked."

Moves to embed health and wellbeing in the wider curriculum were described at the Summit. While schools may have begun their Tūturu journey with discussion around alcohol and other drugs, they soon began to think quite strategically about how to weave wellbeing throughout the school. At Otago Girls' High School, a decision was made to enhance the amount of planned learning around wellbeing at years 9 and 10.
"We made a deliberate decision to start early," says Assistant Principal Bridget Davidson. "Rather than waiting, we wanted our younger students to start grappling with the issues so they could develop understandings and critical thinking skills."
In response to schools making curriculum change, Tūturu has worked to develop resources.
"We've certainly seen value in the curriculum-based approaches," says Matheson. "We have developed resources for use in various subjects. Some help teachers to feel competent in talking to kids about things outside their subject area. We now have a suite of resources that help teachers have better conversations about drugs and alcohol."
Davidson says the Tūturu resources have been invaluable. The school has often modified them to suit its own context or used ideas as a basis for the development of a local resource.
The Tūturu Summit focused strongly on schools building responsiveness to the needs of Māori students, who are disproportionately represented in negative wellbeing figures.
Kataraina Davis, a specialist in youth development and cultural competence, challenged those present to analyse what they knew about their Māori students and how strongly a Māori perspective was represented in the kaupapa of their schools. She asked that schools actively create places where rangatahi feel a sense of belonging, where their mana is uplifted and their voices heard. She reminded the audience that Māori conceptions of leadership and health are different from mainstream views and have to be woven into the fabric of the school.
Alongside issues of school curriculum and culture, the Tūturu Summit placed considerable emphasis on building pastoral pathways for students that would help them learn self-management skills. Integral to this is the role of the classroom teacher, creating a space where young people can bring their whole selves into the conversation. Always, however, classroom teachers operate within a highly developed pastoral care structure. These vary according to the differing contexts of the schools.
"We want them to see that we are caring and restorative and, where we can be, inclusive and engaging."
Waiheke High School Deputy Principal Tony Sears
Richard Talbot from multicultural Aorere College in South Auckland described the operation of a web of pastoral care within the school. Teachers and students are supported by deans, guidance counsellors, social workers, nurses and an attendance officer. These on-site professionals partner with a range of outside agencies to provide specialist assistance.
"Our teachers know their students well, and we encourage them to let us know of any concerns that arise," says Talbot. "If students are out of sorts, withdrawn, have low mood or anger, teachers let us know, and we work to support the student. We don't expect teachers to take lone responsibility, but they are a vital part of pastoral care."
In response to schools' need, Tūturu has developed some support plan templates for schools to use. These templates might involve student critical thinking, restorative practice and include regular review and next steps. They may involve work with agencies and engagement with family and whānau.
Ben Birks Ang, Deputy Director – Programmes at the Drug Foundation, says that, even if students initially deflect, saying they're fine, the fact that they are asked if they're OK by two or three teachers increases the likelihood of them reflecting on their wellbeing while feeling part of a supportive community.
Pilot schools and service providers both agreed that the Tūturu philosophy is the correct one – alcohol and other drug education has to be part of a whole-school approach to student wellbeing. That means wellbeing must permeate the curriculum and the day-to-day operation of the school.
Achieving this is not simple. In some contexts, attempting to rehabilitate students rather than exclude them has reputational risks for schools. Waiheke High School Deputy Principal Tony Sears says that he's hopeful implementing Tūturu will convince the community that the school is not soft on drugs.
"Rather, we want them to see that we are caring and restorative and, where we can be, inclusive and engaging."
While community doubts have to be confronted, the leadership and teaching staff in the school must also be convinced that the programme isn't yet another demand on time and workload that will take them away from 'core business'.
"Tūturu has been quite successful in shifting those perceptions," says Matheson. "It has shown that it's not about doing more, but about changing how you do things. It's about making young people's wellbeing the core business and building curriculum and culture that demonstrates that."
Growing success can only be achieved by a core of committed and visionary leaders who build a large, committed team around them. It is not enough to have a few people driving the change. Staff turnover and high workloads are the greatest threat to the programme in the early period of adoption.
At Otago Girls' High School, parts of the programme were strategically spread across the senior management team, and groups of teachers from across the curriculum were brought on board. Nevertheless, Davidson says that, if the school was to start the roll-out again, she would have school-wide professional development early on to grow understanding and enthusiasm more quickly. While change takes time to become embedded in the fabric of a school, students respond to changes quickly, she says.
All participants acknowledged that, particularly in the early period of the roll-out, Tūturu workers attached to each school provided invaluable support and coaching.
"Tūturu is a genuine pilot," says Matheson. "We don't go in with ready answers to everything. We start with an approach and work with schools on how to apply it in their particular context."
"The regular meetings are very helpful," says Davidson. "They're always affirming. We chat about how things are going and what we might try next. Having that local alcohol and other drug service provider person is critical."
In parallel with the piloting of Tūturu, research has been undertaken. Early findings show that schools involved in the pilot have made deep changes and that the changes are making a positive impact for students. The challenge now, according to Matheson, is to identify what are the keys to success. As the programme grows, should some parts be given more weight than others, and most critically, can the successes of Tūturu be spread across the whole schooling system?
"We know that's not easy in the New Zealand context," he says. "Taking successful innovation from a few places and making that a general thing has long been a problem." Matheson says that the recent release of the draft National Education and Learning Priorities (NELP) is a cause for some optimism, as the document states that wellbeing is fundamentally entwined with learning. The priorities also promote the voice of learners and whānau and make it incumbent on schools to remove any barriers that may impede access to education.
"What Tūturu has been saying is now being reinforced by a shift in the national expectations for schools. They're not in place yet, but they are signalled, and that could be very helpful in moving schools down the road towards adopting a wellbeing focus."

The film-makers started developing the project a way back in 2006 so by now they should have pretty much material to create a magnificent film with outstanding visual effects and intriguing plot. What is known so far on the plot, is that humans will stand against the magical creatures (orcs, trolls and dwarfs). We will know about the first conflict between the Alliance and the Horde and enjoy their epic battle. The 4 locations will be used in the movie: Draenor – orcs' hometown, Dalaran – the city ruled by wiz, Stormwind – humans' residence, Ironforge – dwarves' city.
Director of the film intends to show both sides of the clash equally so that the watchers will be puzzled about which side to support. Also he is planning to add some beautiful female protagonist since it works just great in other blockbusters with pretty ladies kicking asses of bad guys. Besides, the producers spare no expenses on visual effects making sure the movie will gain incredible success.
Do you think the visual effects team will be able to do an excellent job bringing the orcs and other creatures to life? Share with us your thoughts! And while we are waiting for the premier date of the teaser trailer which will probably happen in November, we least can eye some teaser posters featuring the main protagonists of the Alliance and the Hordes and their signature weapons.

The video game fans are buzzing with excitement to finally see the feature film the release date of which is due on 10/06/2016. Although it still has almost a year to hit the theatres, we started debating on the plot and other details. The filming continued from January through May 2014 and now the movie is in post-production stage.

Goods and Services Tax (GST) will bring a great impact on all sectors of the society. The impact of GST will be seen more impressively in the case of hospitality and tourism sector. Last year, Indian hospitality and tourism industry was pegged at US $136.2 billion. This year, it is highly unpredictable with the introduction of GST from July 1.
According to economists, Goods and Services (GST) will reduce cost burden on consumers and reduce business transaction costs. It will also bring in one single tax for tourism and hospitality industry. Today, the hospitality industry pay taxes like VAT, luxury tax, service tax etc. like any other industry in the country. For example, a hotel room wherein the tariff is more than Rs. 1000 attracts service tax of 15%. VAT, between 12% and 14.5% is also applicable. This cascading effect of taxes will end once GST comes into force.
The impact of GST on owners of hotels and restaurants must be assessed as well as the impact that it will have on customers. For air conditioned restaurants in metro cities, a GST of 18% will be levied. A GST of 28% will be levied for five star hotel restaurants. Presently, the total tax charged on food bill is 18.5 percent, including VAT, service tax and cess. Likewise, tax on beverage is 26%. So, under the GST regime, if you are dining in an air conditioned restaurant, you will save 0.5% tax on food and 8% on beverages. On the other hand, you will have to pay 9.5% extra on food bill if you are dining in a five star hotel or restaurant. You will also have to pay 2% extra on beverages.
Owners of restaurants or hotels do not have any option at present to adjust service tax received from guests with input of VAT. They can only adjust VAT paid with VAT collected. GST will enable owners to adjust VAT. This will reduce overall cost and make owners to offer a product better.
Goods and Service Tax will also enable the hospitality sector to better avail the benefits of a uniform tax structure and input tax credit. As consumers will not bear the brunt of cascading effect of taxes, it will encourage tourism in the country, thus increasing overall revenue of the government.
You can find more information on topics like e filing, income tax, refund status, calculator, etc. on our blog.
For a common man, GST comes as a huge relief because he cannot differentiate between Service tax, VAT and entertainment tax. GST will eradicate this confusion and give a clear picture to consumers of the taxes they are paying. The checking out process at hotels and restaurants will also become much easier.
However, hospitality sector will have to advance technologically to manage their accounts and file their returns. This will result in increased burden of cost on them and more difficult compliance. To recover additional costs, they may increase tariffs. This will be a negative point for overall outlook of Indian tourism and hospitality industry. In countries like Japan and Singapore, tax rate on hospitality sector is very low as compared to India. They, thus, rank higher on the factors of cost of living and tourism. Many hotel associations have been lobbying for a 5% GST because lower taxes will bring in more tourists in the country, allowing India to compete with its foreign counterparts.
With GST, the actual impact on hospitality sector is yet to be seen. While simplicity of taxes will give better administration and enforcement, and reduce manpower, it will benefit some businesses will others may suffer considerable loss.


Baptism marks the beginning of our lifelong journey as disciples of Jesus Christ. Through Baptism, we are joined with God, Christ's universal church, and our local congregation. The water in Baptism conveys God's saving grace, the forgiveness of our sins, and new life in Jesus Christ. Persons of any age may be Baptized—infants, children, youth, and adults. A person receives the sacrament of Baptism only once in his or her life.
FUMC offers a Baptism class twice per year for parents who would like to have their infant or child welcomed into our congregation by this holy sacrament. Persons seeking Baptism for their children must attend this class, led by the Reverend Taylor Fuerst and Director of Children's Ministries Lara Greene, in which the rich meaning of Baptism is carefully explained–what God promises to us in this sacrament and what we promise to God. Families will also be able to connect with others in our church who have young children during this class.
Sunday, September 30, 2018 at 12:15 p.m.
Come learn our beliefs about Baptism, logistical information about scheduling and service preparation, and ways to help your child live the Baptized life. This class is required for those preparing for Baptism, and only offered twice each year.
To register, indicate your interest on the Connections Card in worship or register at fumcaustin.org/baptismclass. For questions regarding child Baptism, contact Lara Greene at children@fumcaustin.org. If you are interested in adult baptism, contact Pastor Taylor directly at taylor@fumcaustin.org.

What to watch out for if you feed your pet special treats.
When it comes to your pet, I'm going to take the stance and say that you should never make your pet a vegetarian…especially for cats.
A loving pet parent overfeeds her golden retriever, leading to a higher risk of arthritis and diabetes. Fewer treats and a lighter diet help her lose weight.
It seems that many canines have become ill or have died after eating these treats. The FDA and private organizations failed to find a definitive cause of the dog's sudden illnesses.

As clouds roll in, Atlas V with MAVEN rolled out to launch pad
The Atlas V rocket which will send NASA's Mars Atmosphere and Atmosphere EvolutioN (MAVEN) on the first leg of its journey - journeyed to the launch pad at 10 a.m. EST Saturday Nov. 16. Photo Credit: Mike Howard / SpaceFlight Insider
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla – The Atlas V 401 rocket which will ferry NASA's Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) spacecraft out of Earth's gravity well -was ferried out to the pad at 9:57 a.m. EST. The move took place at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station at the Vertical Integration Facility to the adjacent Space Launch Complex 41. Weather however, did not seem to be trending in the mission's favor.
As mentioned, the Atlas V will fly in the "401" configuration, what this means is that the rocket has a four-meter fairing, no solid rocket boosters and a single engine in the upper stage. MAVEN is a NASA mission which will see a orbiter, essentially a weather satellite, orbit the Red Planet for one year (mission extensions are possible and likely).
The day of roll out, a slow drizzle progressed into a steady rain. The weather began to deteriorate. Predictions that provided a 60 percent chance of favorable conditions for Monday's launch – slipped to 40 percent. However, if the Florida weather is known for anything – it is known for its changeable nature.

Do you currently bevel or work with a company that bevels the cut ends of underground water and wastewater pipes with a hand file, cut-off saw or a hand grinder? Have you experienced any of the following problems?
Adding an electrical or pneumatic power source to the job site, both of which can take up valuable cargo space.
Additional time and costs since beveling pipes can be time-consuming.
Infra-Tect's Bevel-Sert, a pre-beveled, NSF 61 HDPE compliant insert, takes less than one minute by hand to install. It requires no beveling equipment.
As Bevel-Sert requires no equipment and 70% less assembly force, it saves anywhere from 30% – 90% in installation costs.
You now have the product solution for beveling water and wastewater pipes that will save you time and money.


Ideal for strength training, body sculpting, Pump, Circuits or other similar fitness classes.
These strength body bars are designed as a fixed weight, already pre-loaded so you don't have the hassle of removing or adding weight, making them safer to and easier to handle than conventional bars with weights on either end.

Women around the world burn their hijabs in protest
follow Patrick
2018 Feb 7, 7:50pm 2,138 views 15 comments watch nsfw quote share
Videos showing women burning the hijab are being posted on social media in solidarity with a protest movement against enforced headscarf in Iran.
Posted online with the hashtag #NoHijabDay, a response to last week's World Hijab Day event, the videos show women removing their headscarves and setting them on fire in front of the camera.
It comes as the Iranian government released a report showing that half of the population do not believe that the state should dictate what women wear, despite dozens of arrests this month.

they don't toe the line on abortion, gay rights, civil right
Hmm let's break this down.
1. Abortion: killing babies seems sick and wrong to most conservatives. You can call it a choice all you want, but it's a choice to kill and it's a selfish choice that we find it impossible to "celebrate" or relate to people who do.
2. Gay rights: we believe gays should have the same rights as other people, but not special rights. Gay marriage is unnatural, but consenting adults should be allowed to do what they want with each other. However expecting conservatives to treat a gay marriage the same is expecting too much. Gay adoption seems problematic, and should be closely monitored.
3. Civil rights are a conservative stronghold. It was conservative Christians in both America and GB who campaigned relentlessly to end slavery. It was conservatives who fought to end Jim Crow laws, end segregation, and it was a party line conservative vote to pass the Civil Rights Act! I'm absolutely baffled about why you'd expect conservatives or Christians to be against Civil Rights.

The first ban in slavery was British MP Wilburforce whose lifelong struggle to get an international ban of shipping slaves by sea was passed just before his death.
An Evangelical Anglo White Male Christian was the first in history, and the Royal Navy swept Slavery from the Seas. Not a Somalian Muslim.

I have a co-worker who's from Iran. He said there are always some women who are protesting wearing the hijab, but most prefer it. For the one's who like the hijab it's a familiar symbol of their culture and heritage.
Sometimes westerner's should try not being so fucking arrogant, and assuming motives for a culture we know nothing about.

I know about 100 Iranians here, as one of my close friends is from there, and we are in city/university with a large Iranian-American population. Exactly 0 Persian women out of ca. 50 I know wear hijab here in US, and ones I have talked to are against it. What they say is that "hair cover is a sign of village" and "brought to Persia by Arab invaders". Many if not most Persian women here tend to wear extremely revealing attires, where skirts are no more than slightly enlarged belts.

That's not the problem at all, the problem are those that don't want to wear it, even if it is just 20%, being severely abused (in extreme cases killed) because of their decision. If the rest wants to wear it no problem at all. The issue is the mandate.

Why would they burn their hijabs? I've been told that wearing the hijab is a choice for Western women, and choosing to wear it is a sign of independence and strength. It's strong to chose to wear a symbol of repression by choice; it doesn't matter that many women have no choice. Maybe they should wrap themselves in the Union Jack to complement their hijabs; two symbols of freedom are better than one.

The hijab is just a fashion statement as long as no one is forced to wear it.
It becomes a symbol of oppression the moment wearing it becomes a requirement.
Strategist says
Agreed - also I don't care if a woman wants to wear it over there - it's their country. But if you immigrate into the western world and we're nice enough to take you then take that fucking thing off when we tell you to according to our customs.

Probably why they're here in the first place. Out of a country of millions they still represent the minority, in opinion, and numbers.
That's not the problem at all, the problem are those that don't want to wear it
I'm kind of stating the opposite, that for most Iranian's it's not a problem.

Q: sqlite multiple query conditions I've searched but can't find the right answer, and I'm going round in circles.
I have
CREATE TABLE History (yr Int, output Int, cat Text);
yr          output      cat
----------  ----------  ----------
2015        10          a
2016        20          a
2017        30          a
2018        50          a
2019        70          a
2015        100         b
2016        200         b
2017        300         b
2018        500         b
2019        700         b
2015        1000        c
2016        2000        c
2017        3000        c
2018        5000        c
2019        7000        c
2015        10000       d
2016        20000       d
2017        30000       d
2018        50000       d
2019        70000       d

I've created two views
CREATE VIEW Core AS select  * from History where cat = "c" or cat = "d";

CREATE VIEW Plus AS select  * from History where cat = "a" or cat = "b";

My query is
select distinct yr, sum(output), (select sum(output) from core  group by yr) as _core, (select sum(output) from plus  group by yr) as _plus from history group by yr;

yr          sum(output)  _core       _plus
----------  -----------  ----------  ----------
2015        11110        11000       110
2016        22220        11000       110
2017        33330        11000       110
2018        55550        11000       110
2019        77770        11000       110

Each of the individual queries works but _core and _plus columns are wrong when it's all put together.  How should I approach this please.

A: You may generate your expected output without a view, using a single query with conditional aggregation:
SELECT
    yr,
    SUM(output) AS sum_output,
    SUM(CASE WHEN cat IN ('c', 'd') THEN output ELSE 0 END) AS _core,
    SUM(CASE WHEN cat IN ('a', 'b') THEN output ELSE 0 END) AS _plus
FROM History
GROUP BY
    yr;

If you really wanted to make your current approach work, one way would be to just join the two views by year.  But that would leave open the possibility that each view might not have every year present.

Una flama eterna és un focus o una flama que crema constantment, alimentades permanentment, abans per l'afegit de combustibles per persones destinades a aquest servei, actualment per una alimentació més sovint amb gas natural.

Una flama eterna pot tenir un sentit religiós o simbolitzar la permanència d'un principi (exemples: la pau, Roma).

A l'època contemporània, una flama eterna perpetua sovint el record d'una persona o d'un esdeveniment d'importància nacional. El monument funerari de l'antic president americà John F. Kennedy, per exemple, compta amb una d'aquestes flames.

Flames eternes
Algunes flames eternes que parlen en memòria de drames històrics:

 París, sota l'Arc de triomf de l'Étoile, La primera Flama del record dels temps moderns il·lumina la tomba del Soldat desconegut d'ençà 1923.
 Flama eterna sobre les tombes dels soldats desconeguts a Moscou i a altres ciutats de Rússia, per les víctimes de la guerra contra el feixisme.
 Yad Vashem a Jerusalem, per a la Shoah.
 Tsitsernakapert a Erevan, per a les víctimes del genocidi armeni.
 Barcelona, al Fossar de les Moreres. Inaugurada el 2001, en record dels màrtirs del setge de 1714.

Beautiful little handmade Christening baby bangle is made from sterling silver with a gold or copper star, with child's name handstamped on the outside.
This bangle is the perfect gift for a beautiful baby girl or boy. It is suitable for a baby from birth. As the child grows, the bangle will grow with her and can be worn for several years. Made from sterling silver in my Cornish studio. Presented in a lovely printed box. You can also add my special gift wrapping with the message "handmade just for you".
The bangle can be personalised on the front with your message of up to 15 characters. This message will be hand-stamped and there may be some slight irregularities with the letters but this is considered to be a feature. It is available with either a copper or rose gold star. Copper and rose gold look virtually the same but the copper will darken with time and the gold will retain it's brightness.
This bangle would be great for a Christening or baptism but would be just as good for a baby's first Christmas or birthday. It should fit the child from birth up to about 8 years, depending on the size of the child.


We are coming up on the end of the chapter. We'll have a page next week, on Monday and then we'll be taking Thursday off due to the holiday (the one here in the States, anyway).
I loved writing this page. I think it has a nice hint of Theresa and Chrys's evolving relationship.
Did you know the holidays are coming up? Did you know you're expected to give gifts to loved ones? GASP! But fear not! Mysteries of the Arcana has you covered. What you should purchase for one (or more) of your loved ones is a piece of gorgeous, fantasy and steampunk inspired jewelry! Luckily, Gemini Dreams (the official jeweler of Mysteries of the Arcana!) has just such jewelry waiting and ready for you to buy. I particularly like the washer pendant with stone myself.

It was hands across America for two groups of students who connected recently to share their perceptions of the often tumultuous 2016 presidential election. Eleven students from Macomb Community College and ten from the University of California, Berkley linked together via videoconference for a lively and eye-opening discussion.
Students from both schools were engaged, participatory and comfortable sharing their opinions with others who they saw as compatriots.
"They're students too, so they'll understand where we're coming from," said one Macomb student.
The topics covered during the dialogue ran the gamut from candidates they supported through the relevance of the Electoral College. Some offered rather pointed comments about specific candidates, but primarily they talked about what they saw as the determining issues of the election.
The students agreed the election had brought out a lot of anger in people, making post-election understanding and open-mindedness important. They also pointed out that a presidential election is not the only way to get involved and make a difference, pointing to participation in state and local elections as well as volunteering at local nonprofits.
All participants were impressed by the interaction and stayed long past the end to discuss the experience with their professors. Many students were surprised that while there were some distinct differences in beliefs, it was what they had in common that dominated the conversation.

Jordi Curós i Ventura (* 4. März 1930 in Olot; † 14. Juni 2017 in Barcelona) war ein spanischer Zeichner und Maler, der die Escola d'Arts i Oficis besucht hatte. Nach einer ersten künstlerischen Phase, in der er hauptsächlich als Zeichner hervorgetreten ist, folgte von 1958 bis 1963 eine Phase nichtfigurativer Malerei. In seiner Spätphase wechselte er zu einer farbenfrohen figurativen Malerei.

Das Phänomen
Jordi Curós absolvierte von 1943 bis 1947 die Escola d'Arts i Oficis, die Kunsthochschule von Olot. Er gehörte allerdings zu der Gruppe von Olotenser Künstlern, die bereits im Anfang der Karriere den Rahmen ihrer Olotenser Herkunft gesprengt hatten. Entsprechend wirft der Kunstkritiker Sempronio in seinem Curós-Artikel folgende Fragestellung auf: "Wie behandelt man einen Maler, der zwar in Olot geboren, aber sich unbeirrt von dem Olotenser Kunstlokalismus in einer vollkommenen eigenen Richtung entwickelt hat?" Man erzählte von Curós, dass Salvador Dalí, als er erstmals von ihm ein Bild sah, sagte: "Das ist doch ein deutscher Maler!" Tatsächlich war dieser Künstler in seiner Frühphase total expressionistisch ausgerichtet. Seine Gemälde waren voller Farben; seine Zeichnungen wiesen eine sehr energische Linienführung auf. Curós – obwohl durch und durch Olotenser – hatte von seinem Ansatz her nichts mit der Malerei von Olot zu tun. Er kannte zwar sehr gut die lokale, Olotenser Geschichte, liebte die Leute um sich, den Buchenwald, die Berge und fühlte sich nirgends so wohl wie in Olot. Aber man konnte ihn weder thematisch noch stilistisch ohne weiteres mit den Nachfolgern von Joaquim Vayreda und Josep Berga i Boix in Zusammenhang bringen. Am Ende solcher Untersuchungen kommen dann Kunstkritiker wie Sempronio zu der Wertung, dass Curós Werk zum Besten nicht nur der Olotenser, sondern der gesamten kontemporären katalanischen Malerei gezählt werden muss.

Die Frühphase
Sempronio schildert in seinem Artikel über Curós, wie er ihn auf dem jährlichen Stadtfest von Olot kennengelernt hat. "Anstatt des angekündigten Künstlers trat mir ein echter Hirte, etwas klein und korpulent, entgegen. Jahre später bat er mich, in Versform die Texte zu einer Auca zu schreiben, die letztlich seine Biografie darstellte. Dabei erfuhr ich, dass er als junger Bursche im Bauernhaus L'Isidret (Zum kleinen Isidor) Schweine gehütet hatte." Als richtiger Olotenser Künstler hatte er auch bei L'Art Cristià eine Zeit lang gearbeitet. Die "Fabrik der Heiligen" ist sozusagen die Essenz des Olotinismus. Er hatte auch an der Kunsthochschule von Olot studiert. Aber sein Denken ging von Anfang an über diesen Olotenser Horizont hinaus. Er hat viele Kunstbücher und zahlreiche Kunstartikel gelesen. Diese Medien stellten für ihn ein offenes Fenster zur Welt dar, das ihm ein freieres, stärkeres, risikobeladeneres künstlerisches Panorama aufzeigte. So lernte er die Kunst des Homo terribilis der Zeit, Vincent van Gogh, und dessen strahlende Sonnen kennen. Diese künstlerische Welt war weit weg von seiner Alltagskunstwelt in Olot, in der er Sonntags malte beziehungsweise malen konnte. Seine erste Einzelausstellung hatte Curós 1950 in der Galerie El Jardin de Barcelona. Deren damaliger Leiter Àngel Marsà hatte viel Erfahrung bei der Entdeckung und Etablierung junger Künstler. Andere Künstler wie Rafael Llimona i Benet, Domènec Carles i Rosich, Rafael Benet i Vancells, Joan Teixidor i Comes und Alexandre Cirici i Pellicer hatten sich schon schriftlich oder mündlich für den jungen Curós verwendet. 1951 nahm Curós an dem Oktobersalon in Barcelona teil.

Die nichtfigurative Phase
Curós lebte künstlerisch aus einer starken Intuition heraus. Der Tatsache bewusst, dass die Zeichnung das Rückgrat der Malerei darstellt, hatte Curós sein Leben lang intensiv gezeichnet. Als Meister des Bleistiftes hatte er in Barcelona 1967 den Ynglada-Guillot Preis erhalten. In seiner nichtfigurativen Etappe von 1958 bis 1963 schuf er zahlreiche farbige Arabesken. Diese reichen in ihrer Ausdruckskraft an vergleichbare Werke von Joan Miró oder Raoul Dufy heran und übertreffen in ihrem kräftigen Lyrismus den Plastizismus von Pablo Picasso. Aufgrund seines rebellischen Naturells ließ er sich in dieser Zeit durch manchen künstlerischen -Ismus versuchen. So wurde er Ende der 1950er- und Anfang der 1960er-Jahre durch den in Paris herrschenden Informalismus und etwas später durch den in der französischen Kunstkritik hochgelobten, schematischen und manchmal rigiden Buffet-Stil beeinflusst. Curós, der seit Anfang der 1950er-Jahre als Künstler zunehmendes Standing erlangte, meisterte diese Versuchungen. 1953 nahm ihn der Kunstexperte Eugeni d'Ors Curós neben den Malern Antoni Tàpies, Miquel Villà i Bassols und Joan Brotat i Vilanova in seinen privaten Kunstfachkreis Salón de los Once (Kreis der elf Kunstweisen) auf.

Die figurative Spätphase
Curós wurden 1954 und 1958 jeweils über ein Stipendium, das erste durch das Institut français von Barcelona, das zweite durch die Stadt Barcelona, Kunststudienaufenthalte in Paris ermöglicht. Aus Paris kehrte mit einem neuen Ansatz figurativer Malerei zurück. Sein neuer figurativer Ansatz übertrieb nicht das Pittoreske und zeichnete sich durch eine elegante Zurückhaltung aus. Dieses zweite figurative Werk vermeidet jegliche Pedanterie, Arroganz und inhaltsleere Transzendenz. Es wirkt spielerisch und optimistisch. Es verbreitet immer gute Laune. Gleichzeitig zeigt Curós eine totale Offenheit für künstlerische Experimente. Er entwirft Aucas, Kunstkacheln oder bemalt Fächer. So sind vor allen Dingen in Cadaques – durch die Costa Brava inspiriert – lebensfrohe Werke von Himmel, Erde, Luft und Meer und dem Menschen in diesen Elementen entstanden. Curós feierte diese Welt in seiner Kunst.
