Dancing at Auschwitz
The Holocaust Memorial Center in Detroit, Michigan is the nation's first Holocaust memorial. It was originally located in a building connected to the Jewish Community Center in West Bloomfield. It was this Holocaust museum that I toured with my grandfather when I was twelve-years-old and listened to him explain that many of his family members -- my relatives -- perished in the Shoah.
Several years ago that Holocaust museum moved to a new location a few miles away in Farmington Hills. The space that was originally occupied by the Holocaust Center is now a teen center where Jewish youth come to watch movies, play video games, eat pizza, and compete in pool and ping-pong tournaments. It is also where hundreds of Jewish teenagers come to dance to loud music.
The symbolism is not lost on me. This space was originally dedicated as a museum to pay tribute to the victims of the Shoah and to memorialize the six million souls who perished. It was a solemn space to educate about the Holocaust so that history wouldn't be repeated. But today, it is a space where Jewish young people (many the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of Holocaust survivors) can celebrate that "Am Yisrael Chai" -- the Jewish people have endured. Hitler and the Nazis were not successful because the Jewish people are alive today and our children sing and dance at the Jewish Community Center and in the location originally consecrated as a museum of memory.
It is in this spirit that I embraced the YouTube video of a Holocaust survivor dancing with his grandchildren to the tune of Gloria Gaynor's song "I Will Survive" in front of Auschwitz, the Nazi concentration camp. The original video, which was viewed over 500,000 times in one day, has since been removed from YouTube for a copyright violation. However, it was likely removed due to the controversy it created. The reposted video is below.
Australian Jewish artist Jane Korman filmed her three children and her father, 89-year-old Holocaust survivor Adolk, in the video clip "I Will Survive: Dancing Auschwitz." The clip depicted the Korman family dancing in front of Holocaust landmarks in Poland, including the infamous entrance sign to Auschwitz death camp reading "Arbeit Macht Frei," a Polish synagogue, Dachau, Theresienstadt, and a memorial in Lodz.
Her father at one point in the clip even wore a shirt on which the word "Survivor" was written. During a recent family visit to Israel Korman said that she thought of the idea after she encountered hatred toward Israel and Jews in Australia and added that she wanted to give her concerns presence during the heritage tour of Poland she recently took with her family, and take a different approach to the matter.
Haaretz newspaper reported that "Many Jewish survivors have reacted gravely to the video, accusing her of disrespect. Yet Korman told Australian daily The Jewish News that 'it might be disrespectful, but he [her father] is saying 'we're dancing, we should be dancing, we're celebrating our survival and the generations after me,' - the generation he's created. We are affirming our existence.'"
This is clearly a work of art, but it is also a powerful message that no matter how horrific and catastrophic were the acts committed by the Nazis in the last century, the Jewish people are still having children and grandchildren, and we are dancing together in joy all over the earth. Even on the land that buried millions of members of the Jewish faith, the Jewish people are still rejoicing with our future generations.
What do you think about Holocaust survivors dancing with their grandchildren at Auschwitz?

This is what I left as my comment about the video on YouTube:
"This is awesome! Mazel Tov on creating such a wondrous work of art. This shows that AM YISRAEL CHAI -- the Jewish people have endured and live and we celebrate life!!! One narrative that has emerged out of the Shoah is that of sadness and grief. This is another narrative that is also important -- survivors of the Holocaust have had children and grandchildren and can return to the camps and proclaim their survival and celebrate their life. Amen."
A man who survived the Holocaust and is now back at Auschwitz dancing with his grandchildren as his daughter films them is a beautiful thing. What a message this is to send to anti-Semites and Neo-Nazis. Hitler didn't live into old age to dance with his grandchildren, but this man and millions of other survivors did!

I was very moved by this piece. It is a testament to the survival of the Jewish people and a reminder that it is through our awareness of what happened and our vigilance not to let the worst happen again that we thrive.
As a total outsider, I do understand the meaning of this video. DANCE - I HOPE YOU DANCE. I think it is beautiful. Mary Addi-Layton

I think it's a very sad day, when people think it's okay to DANCE on a place where millions of people were killed.
While I am glad that people survived the Holocaust, they have a right to sing, dance what ever they wish. But, when you do it on the area where millions of your own people were killed, then there is something wrong with you.
And when people think it's okay. What would you think if someone danced on your family members graves? would you be okay with it then?
Just another publicity stunt by the Jews to market the second holocaust of the 20th century. It is offensive and every survivor should be offended that such hallowed grounds have been littered with Gloria Gaynor songs. The fact that he went their with his granchildren is tribute enough. 4/24/1915
john curry said...
I agree. Show those despicable creatures that life goes on no matter what they did.
It only reenforces how wrong they were.
Live long and enjoy.
Looking in from the "outside" (I am no Jewish nor was I alive when this went on) it seems more along the line of look at me now. What you tried to destroy. Because of him living through it their are four more people in this world to give and receive love and compassion. I think he should be able to due this if he wishes. No one in the world will never really know how it felt to be their no matter how many books or movies are ever made. reading it and watching it are completely different from living it. You can not experience it the same way he did. I don't think most people today would be able to go through something like that, even if they were guaranteed life after words. Life was something that was not guaranteed to this man. In fact it was made very clear that it would be taken from him.
Great article on the YouTube video of dancing at Auschwitz by Hugh Collins at AOL News.
I think this video clip is wonderful.
Just to be able to celebrate life.
To the surviours and their familes, the world must never be allowed to forget, that so few did survive.
This is not disrespectful.
It say's we are still here, we are alive, we will go forth & multiply.
good on ya....
I have mixed feelings. I think that it was good that they were dancing outside the box cars rather than in them and I think that a survivor has the right to celebrate his survival however he so chooses.
I think it's important to note that the man and his family are dancing at the sites where the Nazis tried to murder him rather than somewhere like Yad Vashem. I definitely would have liked to hear more about what Adolk himself thought of this as well as the controversy it has caused.
Personally, I would rather dance in Hitler's own house in Berchtesgaden, on top of the Wolf's Den (where Hitler died), or where the Wannsee Conference took place.
This is great. No offense meant by the family. Those who are offended are self serving and prudes for saying such hurtful things about this family. You should be ashamed of youselves. You will hurt/kill him more than the camp by your words.
Eileen Freed said...
Liked your take. I LOVED this video! A real celebration of life and survival.
Kris Few said...
it's great because they are letting go of the pain from the past and forging happy memories in it's place. to hang onto the pain of the past does nothing for you but to move forward in victory is a true blessing!
Michael Zwick said...
However we feel is irrelevant. Survivors have earned the right to do whatever they want on those horrific sites.
Neal Elyakin said...
I agree with Michael; any personal thoughts we have are overridden by the survivors.
Jennifer Kief-Khalaf said...
Wow. I think anything that brings attention to the Holocaust is good. We can never forget. The video gave me chills; the pour souls that had to suffer there is very very sad. I'm happy that this family is celebrating life. L'chaim.

I had a lot of issue with this until a friend told me that it really was worth watching. My issue dealt more with the somberness of the location. Would we dance in a cemetery? Aren't all of the camps, perhaps even all of Poland a cemetery. Having been to Poland twice and visiting the camps, ghettos and museums, with survivors, I think that there are other, better ways that the sentiments could have been displayed.
Years ago, Subliminal and Miri ben Ari did a video together that featured the Bat Sheva Dance Company.
People asked the same question then about appropriateness.
I remember learning about @Martin Baranek, the survivor who accompanied one of my groups to Poland, who during his first visit back to Birkenau, walked in and out of the gate (time after time) while the rest of the group was waiting on the bus. When he was approached and asked why he was going in and out of the gate, he responded, I want to know what it feels to walk out of here as a free person and I am doing it now for all of my family and friends that could not.
I think that the comments by the survivor at the end makes it very meaningful.
There are many ways to find meaning. I applaud this survivor for how he related to his grandchildren and the message that he wanted to give them -

wow, thanks for sharing, tears, why not celebrate, such a powerful piece

An affirmation of life in a place of death
I hope the grandkids in the video will return to Auschwitz to dance with their own grandkids in the future.
When I have seen the Youtube video for the first time, my feelings were very ambivalent. I had learnt, the Jewish people are victims and that joy of life and Holocaust together in a sentence may never fit. This video has taught me of a better one. In the historical facts there is nothing to discuss or to varnish. It was a ghastly murder. I am grateful for the fact that this family has shown that the fascism has not won.

It seems very interesting! I really want to have a try.


The town of Santa Clarita is obviously in a party mood. Both today's and tomorrow's stages leave this city of over 200.000 inhabitants.
In stage 6 riders are heading for the ski resort of Mountain High, located at an altitude of 2.100 to 2.400 altimeters, making it the highest peak in the 2014 Tour of California. The arrival place debuts in the race.
Upon leaving Santa Clarita the route directly goes up and after 45 kilometres Bouquet Canyon is crested. The 'official' part of the climb is 15.2 kilometres and the average gradient is 3%. The terrain keeps rolling and 75 kilometres later Mount Emma is crested after a 16.2 kilometres climb at 2.6%.
After descending the remainder of the race is 40 kilometres and, apart from a short descent, it's all going uphill until Mountain High, the highest point of the 2014 Tour of California. However the tricky climbing only starts with 24 kilometres left – from 1.097 altimetres it goes to 2.264 altimetres without a break. This is a vertical gain of 1.167 meters, meaning an average gradient of 4.8 %. Not super steep but for sure super long.
The stage starts at 20:35 CET and the finish is expected around 01:00.

Hi All, I know this subject has been covered before, but I am still unclear as to what Oxygen Sensor is faulty on my 1999 Jaguar XJ8 3.2L V8.
First, when checking out oxygen sensors with Jaguar and SNG Barratts, my particular sensor appears to be part number LNE1684BB. They list these as 2 needed.
My diagnostic tool is reading "Heated Oxygen Sensor Control Unit, Bank 2 open/shorted"
Looking at some "You Tube" video's, although not a Jaguar, the car with this problem and a V8 engine has two upper sensors either side of the block.
If this is the case with the XJ8, how do I know which one is needed to be replaced?
P1647 relates to the passenger side top O2 sensor.
As you can see from the list of possible causes, sensor failure is listed last.
Might be worth checking the electrical connections if you have been working in that area.
You have the correct Part No LNE1684BB but you only need one if your only replacing one.
Using OEM parts on these cars means no drama.
Carrying out a hard reset after fitting a part can help clear things up.
Hope that helps and all is going well with the refurbishment of the X308.
Thanks Andy, just to clarify, its just one oxygen sensor needed as show in the example?
Yes that's right Doug,the drivers side O2 sensor will come up with a different code if that one fails, P1646 I think.
Looked in the engine bay and can see the drivers side oxygen sensor quite clearly (bottom left hand corner of picture). However, can't see the passenger side sensor.
This is the drivers side top sensor.
Looking down from the top of the engine bay you will see what I can see.
Getting in closer you will see (hopefully) a heat shield which is above the passenger side exhaust pipe.
Do you know if the sensor is behind this heat shield as it seems a bugger of a job to get to it with all the pipes around it, or does one get to the oxygen sensor from under the car?
Further note: I can't see any cabling for the oxygen sensor in this area.
Hi Doug,hope all is well.
Yes the O2 sensor on the passenger side is underneath the heat shield which makes it a bit awkward.
Second post in the thread cover's the passenger side.
Thanks Andy, now I know what I am up against. Looks as if it going to be a problem job. I have asked an independent Jaguar garage to quote me to do this job. If the climate was warmer I would attempt it myself but as I want to get it running right ASAP, I will get the garage to do it - if the price is reasonable.
They are quoting £60 to replace, with me supplying the part. No brainer!! They can have the trouble of getting it out!!!
The problem WAS the oxygen sensor as it has been replaced today and boy what a difference it has made. The car is more responsive than before. Denso Oxygen Sensor from e-bay = £55, fitting by independent Jaguar service centre = £60. Money worth spent for the enjoyment I am now having in my X308!
Maybe short lived? I now have code P0155 come up. I have also noticed that every time I reach a destination and turn off the engine, the fan comes on for about 5 mins then switches off. Are these two things related?
Found to be poor contacts. Cleaned and working fine now.
This was the plug contacts from the oxygen sensor to the wiring loom. They were very dirty. A dig around and electrical spray did the trick.

title: Change the skin of built-in filter controls of RadGrid
description: Change the skin of built-in filter controls of RadGrid. Check it now!

page_title: Change the skin of built-in filter controls of RadGrid
slug: grid-change-the-skin-of-built-in-filter-controls-of-radgrid
res_type: kb

## How to

Change the skin of built-in filter controls of RadGrid, so that they will look different from the grid.

>caption Before
![Default Skin for built-in filters](images/grid-change-the-skin-of-built-in-filter-controls-of-radgrid-before.gif)

>caption After
![Default Skin for built-in filters](images/grid-change-the-skin-of-built-in-filter-controls-of-radgrid-after.gif)

## Solution

Generally, this can be easily achieved by using templates.  For example, defining a FilterTemplate:

````ASPX
<telerik:GridDateTimeColumn UniqueName="OrderDate" HeaderText="OrderDate" DataField="OrderDate">
    <FilterTemplate>
        <telerik:RadDateTimePicker ID="RadDateTimePicker1" runat="server" Skin="Black"></telerik:RadDateTimePicker>
    </FilterTemplate>
</telerik:GridDateTimeColumn>
````

In some cases, however, one would like to apply different skins to the built-in controls instead. It is no straight forward, since controls inside RadGrid inherit the grid's Skin and they will be styled in accordance to that.

Here is how it's done:

RadGrid defines the skin/styling to controls in the PreRender event, therefore, we will be overriding that using the Page\_PreRenderComplete event.

>caption Page\_PreRenderComplete event handler

````C#
protected void Page_PreRenderComplete(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    ////Execute logic only if Filtering is enabled and Filter type is Classic or Combined. These two options have FilterItem.
    if (RadGrid1.AllowFilteringByColumn && RadGrid1.FilterType == GridFilterType.Classic || RadGrid1.FilterType == GridFilterType.Combined)
    {
        // Access the Filtermenu and apply the skin on it
        RadGrid1.FilterMenu.Skin = "Black";

        // Reference to the filterItem
        GridFilteringItem filterItem = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.FilteringItem)[0] as GridFilteringItem;

        // Loop through all the columns (that are to be rendered) of RadGrid
        foreach (GridColumn col in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.RenderColumns)
        {
            if (col is GridNumericColumn) // checking if the column is of type GridNumericColumn
            {
                RadNumericTextBox numericTextBox = filterItem[col.UniqueName].Controls[0] as RadNumericTextBox;
                numericTextBox.Skin = "Black";
            }
            else if (col is GridDateTimeColumn) // checking if the column is of type GridDateTimeColumn
            {
                // DateTime columns might have different controls depending on the column's PickerType property

                // if its DatePicker
                RadDatePicker datePicker = filterItem[col.UniqueName].Controls[0] as RadDatePicker;
                if (datePicker != null)
                {

It is not done yet, though! Assuming that, RadGrid will request the CSS Stylesheets for the Default Skin.Our controls will not have black unless we register them individually. For that purpose, we will request the necessary styles using RadStyleSheetManager.

````ASPX
<telerik:RadStyleSheetManager EnableStyleSheetCombine="false" runat="server">
    <StyleSheets>
        <%--Black Skin for the Input controls (RadInput)--%>
        <telerik:StyleSheetReference Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI.Skins" Name="Telerik.Web.UI.Skins.BlackLite.Input.Black.css" />

        <%--Black Skin for the RadGrid FilterMenu (RadMenu) control--%>
        <telerik:StyleSheetReference Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI.Skins" Name="Telerik.Web.UI.Skins.BlackLite.Menu.Black.css" />
    </StyleSheets>
</telerik:RadStyleSheetManager>
````

Well done! The RadTimePicker, RadDatePicker and RadDateTimePickers controls now have the Black Skin.

There is one last thing we need to style. That is the Filter button residing next to the FilterControl. This button is a Web Control of type ElasticButton has no Skin property to assign one. RadGrid will style that by default, but, if you want to change the Style, you will need to override some of the CSS classes. To complete our scenario, we will be styling them same as in the Black skin. We've used some of the CSS rules that come with the RadGrid_Black stylesheet when the Grid's Skin is set to Black.

````CSS
/*
    style the buttons near the filter controls
    The rules from below have been taken from the "RadGrid_Black" CSS file
*/
.RadGrid .rgFilterRow .rgFilter:hover,
.RadGrid .rgFilterRow .rgFilter:focus {

Q: Cannot find name 'firebase' vanilla typescript I've searched everywhere and cannot find a solution to this problem:
var config = {
    apiKey: "xxxxxxxx",
    authDomain: "xxxxxxxxx",
    databaseURL: "xxxxxxxxx",
    projectId: "xxxxxxx",
    storageBucket: "xxxxxxxxxx",
    messagingSenderId: "xxxxxxxx"
};
firebase.initializeApp(config);

I am not using Angular nor node.js, just vanilla typescript in vscode, and no matter what I do, 'firebase' is always red lined, and name cannot be found. I followed the documentations and some youtube tutorials step by step several times and I'm just desperate right now. deploying works, no probs there...
I have also used this link in my html:
<script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/5.5.5/firebase.js"></script>

And moving the given snippets between files doesn't help.
what am I doing wrong?
I have found something odd. In chrome console, I am able to find 'firebase', it exists and imported from CDN, But it is not the same in VSCode as it still won't let me compile due to the missing name error.
Could it be related to my tsconfig?
Edit #2: I contacted firebase support and we are looking for a solution, I have to note that they have wonderful tech support, kudos.
My theory now is that my VSCode .ts files are unable to import variables from files that are not .ts. Is this normal?

A: TypeScript does not know that you are importing firebase because the import happens in an html file. Although it may be clear to you that your ts file will be used in that same html file, TypeScript cannot determine this and it also cannot assume that that your ts file will only be used on html pages that have firebase already included.

The best solution is to take firebase as a real dependency using npm
npm install --save firebase

and then import it in your ts file:
import * as firebase from 'firebase';

var config = {
    ...
};
firebase.initializeApp(config);

Then use webpack or a similar tool to compile that TypeScript to a single js file

If you do not want to add a real import, then you can reference just the global types from firebase using:
declare const firebase: typeof import('firebase');

var config = {
    ...
};
firebase.initializeApp(config);

This also requires that you install firebase locally using npm.

A: I wonder if there's another way (using tsconfig), but adding the following line to the top of your entry file resolves the issue:
/// <reference path="node_modules/firebase/index.d.ts" />

A: TL;DR Just download this file and throw it somewhere in your project folder.
Simple solution, but be warned, doing this means Typescript will always assume your script has access to the variable firebase, even when it actually doesn't.

As @Matt Bierner said, you're importing firebase with script tags in the HTML. So Typescript doesn't know that firebase was imported. So it doesn't know anything about "firebase", and therefore it red lines it.
His solution including installing the firebase package from npm and importing it, and also webpacking it, since node_modules (the folder with all your npm packages) isn't something your front end code usually has access to.
Why would bundling the npm firebase package fix the problem? Because for one thing, inside the package there's a file called index.d.ts, and THAT tells Typescript everything it needs to know about the firebase object.
So instead of webpacking and stuff, you can skip all that, and simply copy just that file into your project folder. VSCode will find it, and it won't complain about 'firebase' anymore.
Here's the link to the file: https://github.com/firebase/firebase-js-sdk/blob/master/packages/firebase/index.d.ts

WARNING: You may have some pages in your app that don't have access to firebase. If you use firebase on those pages, Typescript will not throw an error even though it should, so your Javascript will throw an error, likely 'firebase' is not defined.
Just remember to include the firebase HTML snippets on whatever page you need firebase for.
For me, I generally make single page apps where firebase is global anyway, so this is a great quick fix.

Holistic Fantasy Chapter 20: two methods? New comrade?
Noah's arming sword embedded itself into the ground not far away with a clear sound of the earth cracking open. The sharp blade blew away quite a lot of stone on impact, it leaves one to imagine what would have happened if one were to be hit by something like this.
Erza's lip curved upwards as she stabbed her thrust her sword.
With Erza's abilities, she probably could stop her weapon precisely at around 1 inch away from his throat.
When Erza is sure that the battle has ended, Noah suddenly lifted his head and struck out his bandaged left arm. A black shadow flashed and collided heavily with the oncoming sword thrust.
The next second, a loud ring sounded between Noah and Erza. Startled by the suddeness of it all, it wasn't until she felt the force coming from her arming sword and being sent back a step before she understood what transpired.
In his other hand, there is still one more weapon at his disposal.
It was the sheath that was in his other hand all this time.
He utilized the sheath and wield it like a sword to nullify her sure-win strike by blocking it and turning the tide of the battle around!
Seeing the astonishment on her face, Noah slammed his feet on the ground and blinked in front of Erza like a lightning.
Under Erza's rapidly contracting pupil, he grabbed his sheath and spun half a circle in mid air by taking advantage of his inertia. Weirdly enough, he landed right within her arms. Stopping for an instant, he slammed the sheath at her chest with a force that could generate whistling sound while tearing through air.
Feeling the power behind those moves, even Erza can't help having her expression distorted as she rapidly charged up her magic power.
A silver glow flashed from Erza.
When the light dissipated, a silver buckler appeared out of thin air.
Noah stopped for a brief moment when he saw this.
He has seen Erza using [Requip] many times in the 3 months they are together, he has also seen countless weapons she stored away but this is the first time he has actually seen her using a shield.
Does this mean that the battle has turned into a situation where she has no choice but to use a shield?
While thinking something along that line, his hand didn't stop or slow down, in fact the sheath sped up and slammed the shield hard.
The dull thud reverberated outwards like a formless wave with Noah and Erza at the epicenter.
Though from the feel of it the force isn't enough to cause any significant harm, it was enough to sent her originally retreating body back even more.
It is only some twenty steps back did she finally managed to steady herself.
But, she can't move any longer.
The reason being a figure is in front of her with sheath roughly 1 inch away from her throat.
This scene is exactly like what she imagined when she knocked away his arming sword.
The only difference being the roles should have been the reverse of what is going on now.
Noah laughed while pointing the sheath at her throat.
She indeed underestimated the foes this time.
It's not to say she has been going easy on him, rather it's the moment when she disarmed him that she thought her victory is determined and that led her to let down her guard. She didn't expect that he would use the sheath to execute a counter attack and blitzkrieg her into a panicked state.
If not becaue of this then with her responsive abilities and reflex, this battle definitely wouldn't end so fast and he absolutely wouldn't have gained a win so smoothly.
Eyes on the sheath at her throat, she helplessly relaxed her arms and one could see a hint of displeasure on that exquisite face of her.
Noah rolled his eyes and put down the sheath before walking towards the arming sword still stabbed into the ground not far away from him.
In the past 3 months, Noah and Erza did this kind of duel practically every day, but they have only ever gone about it using only sword techniques, the purpose is to hone their skill with the blade.
This time, Erza used magic to gain an advantage and Noah responded in kind by using sheath to counter attack, something she didn't expect and she deployed her shield. Compared to those duels in the past that has more training elements in it, today's duel seemed for like an actual battle.
Having seriously fought in an almost real battle situation, Noah and Erza couldn't be happier.
But that's just to the extent of being serious. Only the two person themselves know just how much of their true abilities did they exhibit in this battle.
At the very least, Erza gussed that Noah still had about 2 more methods up his sleeves.
The first one is the gargantuan amount of magic power he is proud of.
He has made tremendous progress in not just the sword skills that could put give Erza a surprise when she lets her guard down, he has also improved his magic power manipulation during this period.
3 months earlier, he could utilize at full control, a magic power amount that rivals tens of magicians and he used it to activate the lake of rituals. The amount he can use right now is definitely not any less than that, that's for sure.
Suppose he were to use that in the previous battle in much the same manner as Erza, that is to enhance his physical abilities. Then let's not talk about using all he could use, just within the margins of which he could maintain control over, the enhancement would have been many times better than what Erza could muster up. The battle would have been even smoother.
He didn't use magic power and he kept saying he can't use magic power at will, but the reality is that he has some apprehensions to using it.
Erza has heard from guild mates how when Makarov just took Noah in, Noah would always almost level the guild due to emotional fluctuations causing his magic power to rampage out of control.
Because of this, before he could fully control his magic power, he will always worry about various factors.
Plus, the foe this time is Erza, not a true foe but a comrade on the same path towards improving oneself. That's why he subconsciously restrained himself from using magic power in that battle.
Erza glanced at the clear as Ice arming sword Noah just picked up. She could feel faint aura coming off that blade.. Thinking back to the first time Noah wield that blade, she bitterly laughed and shook her head.
He brandished the blade while teasing Erza.
Erza retorted, but she took it back a second later.
Erza beamed and left a line.

Baked Pork Ribs with Pineapple or "Gradook Mou Op Sapparod" in Thai. This Thai ribs recipe creates very tender ribs that are tangy-sticky good! They're easily made in your oven, so there's no messy parboiling involved - just stir together the marinade with the ribs and let them bake slow and long (the secret to tender ribs!). which makes these ribs taste simply divine. Great for everyday eating, and also makes a terrific party food. Enjoy!
1 can pineapple or fresh pineapple 1 cup of any shift yeah it's enough I cut into small pieces the Author took a little Spring onion for decorate.
Heat oil in a wok. Wait until hot then add pork spare ribs, fry until nearly cooke.

Q: Using an HMAC on an a already hashed value, good or bad practice? Hi all I have a question on if this is good practice or not.  I am aware that simply double hashing a value can be bad for various reasons.
What I would like to do would be something like this, in php.
$val = hash_hmac('sha256', md5($password), $salt);

The reason for this is that we are authenticating with a trusted partner over a closed api.  The passwords are stored as an MD5 hash in our DB.  However, I don't want our partner to send this same value across the net.
This way I can compare the md5'd password inside our database to unique hash that our partner has sent.
What say ye?

A: First of all, is this a user password (ie, you are authenticating on-behalf-of a user), or a shared secret between your two servers?
If it's a user password, stop. You are saving passwords in plaintext (or as an unsalted md5). Either way is bad. Save passwords as a salted hash and use OAuth or something to authenticate instead.
If it's a shared secret between two servers (not representing a user), you can still use oauth or something, but if you just want something simple, you should authenticate like this:
$val = hash_hmac('sha256', $nonce, $secret);

$nonce is a one-time-value chosen by the server randomly to prevent replay attacks.
Keep in mind that if you don't have a nonce, then whatever value you send across is your shared secret. It doesn't matter if you derive it from a hmac of a md5 or whatever; if it ends up being the same each time, it is equivalent to a password sent across the communications channel. And remember to secure the communications channel from MITMs as well!

The MV Agusta Brutale series of motorcycles are manufactured by MV Agusta of Italy, starting in 2001.  Its style is classified as a naked bike and the series consists of several models powered by either inline-four or inline-three, DOHC-engines in various capacities.

History

Introduction
The motorcycle was designed by Italian motorcycle designer Massimo Tamburini. The engine was based on that used in the F4 series, which was developed by Andrea Goggi.

The engine is a liquid cooled inline four cylinder four-stroke set across the frame with two overhead camshafts (DOHC), 16 'radial' valves, electronic multipoint fuel injection, and induction discharge electronic ignition having engine displacements of , , and . The engine was derived from the 1990–1992 Ferrari Formula One engine. Early in the design process Ferrari engineers assisted in the development of the engine. MV (Cagiva at the time) quickly deviated from the Ferrari design, but they kept one important feature, the radial valves. The engine, which produces  and 75 Nm torque, is unique in the sense that it is the only recently produced radial-valved motorcycle engine.

A new chassis was created under the leadership of Technical Director Massimo Parent. The engine hangs from a tubular frame and is a stressed member. The machine has 50mm upside-down forks, developed for MV Agusta by Marzocchi, a Sachs rear shock absorber, a CNC milled 6-piston (front) and 4-piston (rear) brake system from Nissin. The wheels and swinging arm are made of aluminium. Other aluminium parts are the frame plates and the fork bridges.

The first model was introduced in 2001; the MV Agusta Brutale 750 Oro, which, like the MV Agusta F4 750 Series Oro, used many magnesium parts and was limited to 300 machines. This was followed in 2002 by the MV Agusta Brutale 750 S.

Evolution
In late 2005, a larger 910 cc engine was added to the range. The 998 cc engine from the F4 1000 S was taller than the 750 cc unit and could not be fitted. The 750 engine's bore was increased by 2.2 mm to 76 mm and the stroke by 6.3 mm to 51 mm to give 909 cc displacement. A top of the range model using the 1078 cc engine from the F4 was added in 2007, and a 982 cc variant in 2008.

Now under Harley Davidson ownership, the Brutale was redesigned for the 2010 model range. Two models were offered, the 990 R and the 1090 RR. Both engine and chassis were redesigned, 85% of the components on these machines had been completely redesigned. The engine was based on the previous 1078 engine and both displacements shared a common crankshaft. The frame was more compact and the swinging arm longer. A 921 cc entry-level model was added to the range in 2011.

In 2012, a new three-cylinder Brutale, based on the F3, was introduced. Initially only offered with the 675 cc engine, the 800 cc model was added a year later. The four-cylinder models were phased out following the introduction of the triples.

The four-cylinder engine was reintroduced in 2019 in the Brutale 1000 Serie Oro, which MV Agusta claimed to be the fastest naked bike in the world.

Model variants

First generation

Brutale 750 Oro

As with other MV Agusta models, the first model of the series was a limited-edition, the Brutale 750 Oro. The model used magnesium parts, including the swing arm, finished in gold to save 6 kg. Finish was in traditional MV red, with a tobacco coloured leather seat. Each of the 300 machines came with a certificate of authenticity and a numbered gold plate placed onto the steering head.

Brutale 750 S

Introduced in 2002, the Brutale 750 S was the first full production Brutale model. Similar to the Oro model, aluminium parts replaced the magnesium items used on the Oro. 49 mm Showa front forks were used along with the silver aluminium wheels from the F4 750 S Evo 03. A black faux leather seat was fitted and the machine was available in red or opaque black livery.

Brutale America
The Brutale America was an upgrade kit for the 750 S, inspired by the livery of the classic MV Agustas of the 1970s, such as the MV Agusta 750 S. The kit was available as a basic kit consisting of a red/white/blue painted fuel tank, blue tail section panels, and alcantara seats. A "full option" kit was also available that added carbon fibre body part and silver Marchesini ten-spoke forged aluminium wheels. Both kits were limited to 300 units and came with a certificate of authenticity and a numbered plate.

Brutale CRC
The Brutale CRC was an upgrade kit for the 750 S. The kit was available as a basic kit consisting of silver/blue painted fuel tank and tail section panels, and alcantara seats. The livery was similar to the F4 SP-01 Viper kit. A "full option" kit was also available that added carbon fibre body part and silver Marchesini ten-spoke forged aluminium wheels. Both kits were limited to 300 units and came with a certificate of authenticity and a numbered plate.

Brutale Mamba
Introduced in 2006, the Brutale Mamba was an upgrade kit for the 750 S. The kit consisted of a titanium exhaust system and carbon fibre body parts. Livery was the same red and black as the F4 1000 Mamba. Production was limited to 300 units and came with a certificate of authenticity and a numbered plate.

Brutale Gladio
A second upgrade kit was introduced in 2006, the Brutale Gladio. The kit was available as a basic kit consisting of metallized black/grey painted fuel tank, front mudguard and side panels. Also included was a leather seat and an MV Corse alarm. A "full option" kit was also available that added carbon fibre body part and silver forged aluminium wheels. Both kits were limited to 300 units and came with a certificate of authenticity and a numbered plate.

Brutale 910 S

Introduced in late 2005, the Brutale 910 S was the first "big-bore" Brutale. The 909 cc engine was derived from the 750 cc unit, the 998 cc engine from the F4 100S being too tall to fit into the Brutale's frame. The new engine produced  @ 11,000 rpm.

The frame was unchanged from the 750 models. Fully adjustable 50mm Marzocchi forks and a remote-reservoir single rear shock were fitted. Brakes were by Nissin, six-pot on front and four-pot on the rear.

The 50mm Marzocchi forks had been revised and provided an extra 4 mm of travel. A fully adjustable Sachs rear shock and Brembo four-piston radial brake calipers were fitted.

Second generation

Brutale 990 R
Following the brand coming under the ownership of Harley Davidson, a redesigned Brutale was introduced in late 2009. The Brutale 990 R model was powered by a new variant of the 4-cylinder engine. Using the crankshaft of the 1078 models and a smaller bore, the 998 cc engine was of a longer stroke than previous models. It featured a balance shaft to reduce vibration. Power output was .

The machine was finished in ruby metallic red/pearl white with a black frame.

Third generation

Brutale 675
Based on the MV Agusta F3, the Brutale 675 was first introduced at the 2011 Milan EICMA show. The counter-rotating (reverse) crankshaft three-cylinder  engine produced slightly less power than the F3 engine, but had more torque available at lower revs.

As the triple engine was more compact than the four, the frame could be made more compact and the swinging arm lengthened compared to previous models. 43 mm Marzocchi upside-down forks, Sachs rear shock absorber and Brembo brakes from the F3 were fitted.

The machine was available in pearl white/matte metallic gold, red/silver or matte magno grey/matte anthracite finish.

The SCS 2.0 system, which was first fitted on the Turismo Veloce in 2018, allows the rider to use the clutch in a conventional manner with the lever, or simply allow the system to control the clutch. The system is based on the Rekluse clutch, which allows the rider to engage gear at tickover without using the clutch. Once the throttle is opened the clutch engages. The MV system adds electronic control, which optimises clutch engagement based on engine revs and throttle position, during up and down-shifts. The SCS system weighs just 36g more than a conventional clutch.

Brutale 800 RC
The limited-edition Brutale 800 RC (Reparto Corse) was introduced in 2018 as the most race focused model of the series.

Q: rails 3.1 not working for Windows 7 (JavaScript Runtime issue) I searched around, people say it suppose to work that I don't need javascript runtime on Windows, but it's not working. When I run rails server, it tells me I need runtime and show a link to a github page. Also I tried to install those runtime listed on that github page, including therubyracer, nothing is able to be installed, got errors everywhere. The question is, what should I do to get Rails 3.1 running on Windows 7?

A: Check this answer: therubyracer gem on windows
You should be using execjs gem instead.
From the execjs page: it should just use the standard Windows javasccript runtime (Jscript).
Set the following environment variable:
export EXECJS_RUNTIME=JScript

or
ENV['EXECJS_RUNTIME'] = 'JScript'.

Hope this helps.

A: I struggled with this for many hours tonight, doing all sorts of stuff with reinstalling ruby, rails, devkit, trying to include therubyracer or libv8... (I'm sure you've come across all of this by now)
I eventually solved it by: Uninstalling Internet Explorer 9.
I'm now back to the default IE8 and it is working fine.
(Windows 7 Ultimate x64, Service Pack 1, running Ruby 1.9.2p290, Rails 3.1.1, Rubygems 1.8.1.1. Also installed the Devkit and node.js at some stage through this)

A: Have you thought of using vagrant, that way you can have more than one vm you can control and vm for development and their systems are separate from each other so you have less dependency issues.
And also you'll be running linux so everything should be available for that platform.

A: You need to install node.js to run the coffeescript compilation used in rails.  http://nodejs.org/

10 Things to Know Before Investing in Equifax
By this time just about everyone has seen the news on the Equifax data breach. On September 6th the day before Equifax announced the security breach the company's stock closed at $141.39. One week later the stock closed at $98.99, thats a 43% drop in price. Many investors, new to experienced have been eyeing Equifax for a possible long. Warren Buffett once said, buy when others are fearful, and many are fearful of Equifax at this time. But before you finalize your investment decision here are 10 thing to know about Equifax.
1. Of the top 3 credit rating agencies, Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion, Equifax is #2 in revenue. It's always great as an investor when we can find value in the number two company of a big industry.
Data by Yahoo.com
2. There are four segments of business that Equifax operates in.
U.S. Information Solutions (39% of revenue)
International (26% of revenue)
Workforce Solutions (22% of Revenue)
Global Consumer Solutions (13% of revenue)
3. Equifax generates the majority of it is revenue from commercial and government customers. Why is this important? It's believed by some that the security breach won't effect ongoing business from the firms commercial and government customers, this should keep revenue from decreasing significantly over the next year or two, hopefully.
4. Equifax has increased revenue every year going back to 2010, and before the announcement of the cyber security breach analyst expected revenue to grow by 9%. Yahoo finance now has expected revenue growth for this year at 7%.
5. The security breach was announced by Equifax on 9/7/17. The company reported 143 million U.S. consumers records had been compromised in the breach. Days later Bloomberg reported a cyber security breach of the Equifax systems occurred back in March, five months earlier than the company had announced. Equifax responded that the two are unrelated. In the midst of this the public discovered that three Equifax insiders sold their stock prior to the announcement of the security breach. When an investor decides to invest in a company, they are also investing in the management team. The managements ability to keep the company growing, and out of trouble. And if the company does get into some sort of trouble, investors are looking at management to be ethical, responsible, and offer explanations and solutions. In the case of Equifax, the company's management has handled this situation terribly. Hopefully they'll get it together for the sake of their consumers.
6. The website Data Center Knowledge did a study to determine what a data breach cost the companies who were effected. They discovered a data breach in the U.S. cost a company on average $7.35 million and the average cost per record compromised is $225. Doing the math, 143 million consumer records at $225 per record equals $32,175,000,000. Equifax will end up paying out a lot of money when this is all said and done, but many analyst doubt it will be in the billions. For more information on Data Center Knowledge's research you can find it here.
7. To try and get a better idea as to what this may cost Equifax, lets take a look at Target. Target had a security breach in 2013. Target reported 40 million credit and debit cards had been compromised between black Friday and December 15th of that year. Almost a month later Target reported that 70 million mailing addresses, phone numbers and email address had been compromised. In Targets 2016 annual report, the company states the security breach cost the firm $292 million. Home Depot reported a breach in 2014. In Home Depot's case 53 million credit cards were stolen. The security breach has cost Home Depot $198 million dollars.
8. Target and Home Depot are good comparison's because they are well know publicly traded companies. In Target's case, their stock traded to a daily high of $63.59 on 12/18/17, one day before the company announced their security breach. The stock fell to $54.66 over the next two months, a 16% decline. The stock then rallied from the $54.66 support and traded to $79 in 2015. Home Depot's stock didn't drop at all. The stock was $91.64 the day before the company announced the breach, and the stock didn't take a dive or make a steady decline like Target's stock, instead Home Depot's stock kept increasing in price.
9. There have been dozens of class action suits filed against Equifax, we've seen figures as high as $70B, that would be the largest class action suit in U.S. History. Keep in mind that Equifax has $400M in cash and $2.8B in debt according to their last quarterly report. The company is not in the best position to survive billions of dollars of fines and settlements.
10. After the cyber attack, Well's Fargo upgraded Equifax to a buy rating. Wells Fargo has a price target on Equifax of $127-$135. Wells Fargo's analyst believes that the Equifax core business to business operations probably won't be impacted by the recent data breach. Wells Fargo believes a best case scenario for Equifax is a $500M fine, a loss of 50% of its consumer business, and a $25M rise in operating cost.
There you have it. More information about Equifax to help you make an investment decision.
After doing our own research the team at The Seville Report does believe there is value in Equifax, however we find it difficult to say this is the time to buy Equifax. We feel there is more news to come, so we are going to sit and wait.

COMPMED 23N: Pandemics & Plagues: Biological Causes and Social Effects
Massive scale infections or plagues have often occurred, affecting millions for years or quickly killing thousands. In this seminar, we will use both biological and social lenses to examine infectious agents and the plagues they caused. To provide helpful framework for this exploration, we will begin with a very brief overview of the principles of microbiology and immunology. This will be followed by specific looks at the biological causes and social responses to Black Death, cholera, tuberculosis, the 1918 influenza pandemic, polio, and the ongoing HIV pandemic. We will conclude our seminar with similar looks at some of the infectious agents most likely to cause new pandemics.

COMPMED 80N: Animal behavior: sex, death, and sometimes food!
Preference to freshman. Behavior is what makes animals special (thirsty plants don't walk to water), but why do animals behave the way they do? What does their behavior tell us about their inner lives, and about ourselves? What do lipstick and cuckoos and fireflies have in common? Why would nobody want to be a penguin? What do mice say to each other in their pee-mail? Learning how to think about questions like these gives us a unique perspective on the natural world. Format: Discussion and criticism of video examples, documentaries, and research papers. Topics: History and approaches to animal behavior; development of behavior, from genetics to learning; mechanisms of behavior, from neurons to motivation; function of behavior, from honest signals to selfish genes; the phylogeny of behavior, from domestication to speciation; and modern applications of behavior, from abnormal behavior, to conservation, to animal welfare, and animal consciousness.

Preference to sophomores. Ever wonder what cats and narwhals have in common? Maybe you haven't, but despite their seemingly different lifestyles and habitats (i.e. sleeping on couches versus swimming in oceans), they are both mammals! In this seminar, students will gain an appreciation for basic mammalian anatomic and physiologic principles that span across multiple species while emphasizing key differences that render each species unique. Through student projects, we will explore evolutionary adaptations that have driven the success of a variety of species within the context of their natural environments. In addition to lecture content, virtual laboratory sessions will reinforce anatomic principles through a combination of rodent cadaver dissection and examination of organ and bone specimens. Students with a passion for science will gain a fundamental understanding of anatomy that is applicable to future careers in medicine, biomedical research, veterinary medicine, and ecology/conservation.

Answers to these and more are in this introduction to the laboratory mouse, one of the most widely used models in biomedical research. We will explore the natural history and origin of the laboratory mouse; the ethics and regulations on the use of mice in research; the characteristics and nomenclature of commonly used mouse strains; the anatomy, physiology, and husbandry of mice; common mouse diseases and their effects on research; mouse coat color genetics and its relevance to human diseases; immunodeficient mouse models and their uses in research; and the technology for genetically engineering mice (e.g., transgenic mice). Video demonstrations of necropsy, mouse handling, anesthesia and surgery, identification methods, and research techniques will be provided. Each student is expected to read research papers that use the mouse as a research model and give a presentation of a topic of their choice. Students interested in biomedical research and human or veterinary medicine will benefit from this seminar.

BIRGUNJ: One person was killed in police gunfire that in a clash between the police and hashish dealers on Thursday night in Mahadevpatti VDC, Parsa.
A police team from Suwarnapur Police Office which was mobilised after receiving information that a large amount of hashish was being smuggled in a tractor engaged in a clash with the drug dealers. Asharfi Mahato Kewat, 32, of Janaki Tola VDC who was injured in the gunfire died on the way to hospital, informed police inspector Bhuwaneshwor Shah. Shah claimed that the police team was compelled to open fire in retaliation after the dealers began shooting at them. The tractor used by the dealers is in police custody.
In contradiction to the police claim, the locals said that the police killed Mahato in their custody after a disagreement. The locals further claimed that the drug dealers are being protected by the police themselves in return for a hefty bribe and when they fail to pay the requisite amount such incidents were not uncommon.


This free program is a flight simulator and shooter game with a World War II air battle theme. You are the pilot of a fighter plane whose goal is to shoot down as many enemy planes as possible. The game offers you several options. You can start with the training mode to become familiar with the game's controls and options. Then, you can choose a quick game where you can fight another plane. Then, you can tackle a mission where you will fight against rogue pilots and planes. Each one of these options has three different levels of difficulty.
The graphics are good and the plane models are very well made. The game also has cool background music.
Although it is an interesting and entertaining game, it has some drawbacks. For example, it takes a while to load. You need a good graphics card and a fast processor to play the game at its best. Also, you need to practice a lot to become familiar with the controls and options.
Please note that you need DirectPlay installed in your system in order to play the game. If the program is not installed, the game will ask you to install it during your first use.
Although the program is free to download and use, the installation wizard asks you to make MyPlayCity your default homepage and new browser page, as well as to set MyPlayCity as your search provider. You can decline to do so and still have the game installed in your system.

Treasury proposes framework for three-year audit cycle
Miranda Brownlee
06 July 2018 — 3 minute read
Treasury has released further details on the proposed three-yearly audit cycle including eligibility criteria and transitional arrangements which could see the sector split into thirds.
This morning Treasury released a consultation paper on the proposed three-yearly audit cycle for SMSFs with good record keeping and compliance.
Transitional arrangements
The paper said that transitional arrangements may be needed to "assist the SMSF audit industry to adjust to changes to workflow associated with SMSFs transitioning to three-yearly audit cycles.
One of the transitional arrangements suggested in the paper is to split the SMSF sector into thirds, with staged eligibility for audit between 1 July 2019 and 1 July 2021.
"Another option is to split the SMSF sector on the basis of good record keeping, with more timely and compliant SMSFs eligible on 1 July 2019, and less timely and compliant SMSFs becoming eligible at a later date," the paper suggested.
Treasury noted in the paper that while this "would reward timeliness and compliance, [it] may be harder to administer.
The paper also stated that eligibility for a three-yearly audit will be based on self-assessment by SMSF trustees.
"However, if the ATO becomes aware that a SMSF trustee has incorrectly assessed their eligibility for a three-yearly audit cycle, has failed to submit a SMSF annual return (SAR) in a timely manner or has failed to procure an audit in a year of a key event, the ATO will notify the trustee that an audit is required and consider further action if necessary," the paper stated.
Eligibility for the measure will be based on two factors including good record keeping and compliance, and key events.
"SMSFs will have to meet eligibility criteria of timely submission of SMSF annual returns and three consecutive years of clear audit reports to move from an annual audit cycle to a three-yearly audit cycle," the paper explained.
An SMSF on a three-yearly audit cycle will also need be audited in a year in which a key event occurs, with such audits covering all years since the previous audit.
"If a key event falls in a year when a SMSF is not otherwise required to be audited, the SMSF will be required to obtain an audit before submitting that year's SAR. An audit conducted due to a key event will be required to cover all financial years since the SMSF's last audit," the paper said.
Some examples of possible key events include:
The commencement of a superannuation income stream by a member for the first time;
The death of a member;
The addition or removal of a member;
Receipt of non-arm's length income (NALI);
Commencement or maintenance of a limited recourse borrowing arrangement (LRBA);
Acquisition of an asset from a related party; investments, loans or leases with a related party; or
In-species lump sum payments to a member.
"After the occurrence of a key event, if the audit does not result in an ACR, the SMSF may continue to be eligible for a three-yearly audit cycle," the paper said.
"This means that, as long as no other key events occur in the next three years and the SMSF continues to meet good record keeping criteria, the SMSF will next require an audit three years after the 'key event' audit.
Treasury is proposing that an SMSF with a history of three consecutive years of 'clear audit reports' be defined as a SMSF without any financial or compliance contraventions issued in an ACR in the previous three years.
"While a 'clear audit report' could be defined differently, for example as an unqualified audit report, use of the ACR is straightforward and an existing part of SMSF regulation," the paper said.
The paper said there are a range of options for what constitutes timely submission of SMSF annual returns including:
An SMSF that has never submitted a late SMSF annual return
An SMSF that has not submitted a late SMSF annual return in the last three years; to
An SMSF without any outstanding SMSF annual returns
"ATO data indicates that the definition of a timely submission of a SAR could have a large impact on eligibility, with 40 per cent of SMSFs submitting a late SAR on at least one occasion in the three financial years from 2013-14 to 2015-16," the paper noted.
"SMSFs that move to a three-yearly audit cycle will be required to continue to submit the fund's SARs in a timely manner to remain on a three-yearly cycle."
Next steps: key consultation questions
Treasury is consulting on a range of questions including how audit costs and fees expected to change for SMSFs that move to three-yearly audit cycles.
It is also seeking feedback on whether an alternate definition of clear audit reports should be adopted and what the most appropriate definition of timely submission of an SMSF annual return is.
It has also asked what should be considered a key event for an SMSF that would trigger the need for an audit report in a particular year, based on what events present the most compliance risk.
The paper also asks for feedback on whether arrangements be put in place to manage transition to three-yearly audits for some SMSFs, and if so what metrics should be used to stagger the introduction of the measure.
The closing date for submissions is 31 August 2018.
