Q: Blank cell is ignored and overwritten in Excel.Range using Interop have data in an excel file as shown below, where row 1 & 2 are considered as header row which will be copied when this particular file is split according to the first column.

After split the files look like as below:

The Problem is that Column D's value is copied to the wrong column that is C in this case.
I presume I need to check if a cell is empty or null and put blank/null value to the new file during write. Question is how can incorporate that into my following code?
    private FileEntity GetFileObject(Excel.Range range)
    {
        FileEntity fileEntity = new FileEntity();
        fileEntity.RowValues = new List<RowEntity>();

        for (int rowCount = 1; rowCount <= range.Rows.Count; rowCount++)
        {
            RowEntity rowEntity = new RowEntity();
            rowEntity.ColumnValues = new List<string>();

            for (int columnCount = 1; columnCount <= range.Columns.Count; columnCount++)
            {
                if ((range.Cells[rowCount, columnCount] as Excel.Range).Value != null)
                {
                    rowEntity.ColumnValues.Add((range.Cells[rowCount, columnCount] as Excel.Range).Value.ToString());
                }
            }
            fileEntity.RowValues.Add(rowEntity);
        }
        return fileEntity;
    }

A: That is because there are built-in efficiencies to the document structure that avoid wasting space. You have to inspect the cells for their reference (A1, B1, etc.) and then you can know where it came from and what to do with it.
      int rowIdx = 0;

      foreach (Row r in sheetData.Elements<Row>().Skip(1))
      {
        rowIdx++;
        IEnumerable<Cell> thisRow = r.Elements<Cell>();

        foreach (var c in thisRow)
        {
          //This will tell you what cell you are looking at (A2, D14, whatever..)
          string cellRef = c.CellReference.ToString().Substring(0, 1);

          switch (cellRef)
          {
            case "A":
              //do something...
              break;
            case "B":
              //do something...
              break;
            case "C":
              //do something...
              break;
        ....ETC.......

A: Found the solution:
                if ((range.Cells[rowCount, columnCount] as Excel.Range).Value != null)
                {
                    rowEntity.ColumnValues.Add((range.Cells[rowCount, columnCount] as Excel.Range).Value.ToString());
                }
                else
                    rowEntity.ColumnValues.Add(""); //just add this line. keeps the blank cell as created with empty string

The making of real men
Fatima Bulla
In an environment where moral decadence is rife and the economic environment is turbulent, being faithful and sticking to straight forward dealings seem like a tall order for many.
However, it is very much possible. This was the motivation behind the recently held Faithfulness Workout Session, which was themed ''Real man, Be that man''.
The Sunday Mail Society got to know about The RealMan Movement through Mr Nigel Chanakira's tweet last week.
Out of great interest, this reporter found herself in a sea of men who had gathered for the session. Mr Chanakira actually had to seek a special clearance for me to attend the session as the only lady who comes anywhere near the men's meeting is their secretary, Mrs Memory Madzorera.
As he took me through their paces, getting to interact with the ordinary man behind Mr Chanakira was humbling.
The RealMan Movement, which is an inter-denominational initiative being spearheaded by Celebration Church International, is doing a great job in moulding resilient men through a one-year mentoring program.
Pastor Tom Deuschle is the programme's visionary. Culturally, men are deemed strong. They cannot cry or show their weaknesses in public. This has resulted in a crop of men who are broken on the inside.
Yet there is a place where men can show their weaker side and feel safe to display their vulnerabilities. When they get there — at The RealMan Movement — they freely shed tears as an expression of their pain.
Mr Munya Nyandoro, one of the men driving the programme, explained that the movement is divided into two parts.
"The first one is 'Be that man', a level where men go through seven months of mentorship (meeting once every month). They read literature and brainstorm before they graduate.
"We tackle a lot of topics, including faithfulness, sexual integrity, communication, courage and finance, among others. But the testimonies are the most important.
"A lot of us were completely lost out there. While we are not perfect, we are at a much better place now," Mr Nyandoro said.
The second level of the programme, dubbed ''Majoring in Manhood'', involves in-depth study using Pastor Deuschle's seminal book ''Building People, Building Dreams'' and Dr Edwin Louis Cole's writings. Dr Cole is an American pastor who has mentored Pastor Deuschle. He is also the founder of the Christian Men's Network.
Dr Cole's organisation is devoted to building stronger Christian men. Participants go through 10 books and meet in small groups of seven to openly discuss the issues they face in their daily lives. In addition, their group mates also become their accountability partners.
"Some are having problems with their marriages while some have problems with money. Others are haunted by childhood problems. A lot of them struggle, especially with father-son issues.
"I believe a lot of problems we have in Zimbabwe are because a lot of fathers are not there entirely. We work so hard to provide for our families and we think that is enough. We don't spend time with our sons and therefore they don't have models to look up to.
"Men should be able to minister to each other. They should be able to serve their families, communities and churches. Through this programme, we observe you for a year before commissioning you," Mr Nyandoro said.
At the commissioning ceremony, graduates are given swords to symbolise that they can now defend their families and faith. Graduates go on to disciple other men. The Men's Movement has now been introduced in Johannesburg and Cape Town, South Africa, as well as Maputo in Mozambique.
Mr Isaac Jeche said it is crucial for men to accept that they do not have answers to all the problems. He said acknowledging God in one's life is the starting point to getting a clearer direction in life
"There are no self-made men. We are all going through the same challenges but the crucial thing is that this nation needs God because in Him, we will find stability. That's where we need to get our bearings right.
"What's happening right now is that men are trying to do things out of their own might, wisdom, and intellect. But the Bible is very clear, He says, 'My ways are not your ways, My thoughts are not your thoughts'.
"When we submit all our challenges to Him, including the economy and our pride, God will begin to show us the way. In all our wisdom with all the education we have, things will not go smoothly for us until we give the Holy Spirit the chance to lead us. We need education from the Holy Spirit," said Mr Jeche.
He revealed that men, whether religious or not, grapple with similar issues that have to do with faithfulness, responsibilities, sex, communication within the family and at the marketplace, among others.
"What makes a real man is just having the courage to say I'm sorry and that I don't have all the answers. So men need to encourage each other and use the Biblical principles as a foundation for everything in their lives," he said.

3/13/17 – The Beaver Dam Area Community Theatre hopes to be in their new theater early next year. The non-profit has raised just under $2-million dollars towards renovating their new theatre. The group purchased the former St. Patrick's School, a move that will give them an increase of almost 10-thousand-square feet compared to their current location, plus more seating in the main auditorium. Managing Director David Saniter told us recently on WBEV's Community Comment that another $200-to-$250-thousand dollars still needs to be raised. The group is hoping to have the theatre ready by next spring. For more information on the project and on donating, you can visit www.bdact.org.

From Beverly Hills, Calif., a few days ago, Martin discussed with The Star the similarities between "Wild Cards" and superhero movies, his writing process and what he has found disappointing and exciting about how the future has turned out.
Q: How did the "Wild Cards" series of books come about?
A: In the early '80s a group of writers in Albuquerque, we had a little gaming group that got together to play role-playing games. We were all comic book fans, but we were also science fiction writers.
We played the game obsessively for more than a year. Sometimes two or three times a week. We'd start in the evening and still be playing at 3 or 4 in the morning.
At one point, I said, "This is great, but we're writers. We should be writing. We should figure out a way to write down these adventures we're having." So that's when I took hold and decided we could do it as a shared world anthology.
Around 1985, I put together a package and sold it to Bantam Books. The first book came out in 1986, and the rest is history, more or less.
Q: So the shared universe of the "Wild Cards" books is not unlike what Marvel and DC are doing with their movies?
A: Right, exactly, but there are several differences. "Wild Cards" is owned by the writers, not a corporation. And also, I think our universe is a little more realistic and certainly more time-sensitive.
Spider-Man is always in high school or college — he never really gets older — but our characters age and die and have children and get married and get divorced. They may have superpowers, but they have all the real problems that real people do, and they live in real time. That's where things with a 30-year-history can really kick in and really set us apart.
Q: Was that the plan from the beginning, to create characters that aged and grew?
A: I love comic books and I love the whole mythos of the superhero, but I never liked all the reboots and the restarts and the fact that the characters never changed in significant ways. I think character change is what good fiction is all about.
The experiences that you have shape you and change you. You're never the same when you go to war or you lose a loved one or you go to school and you graduate or you have a baby. All of these life experiences change you, and that's what the "story" is all about. And when you always have to circle back to the initial concept, I think it's difficult for a writer. It undermines the possibility for real growth and change.
Q: Can you talk a little bit about how the new TV deal came about?
A: "Wild Cards" has been optioned numerous times over the years. People wanted to do it as a feature film. People wanted to do it as a TV series.
The re-conception is a series of interlocked TV series, kind of similar to what Marvel is doing with "Jessica Jones" and "Daredevil" and what DC is doing with "The Flash" and "Supergirl." I think that is actually the right way to handle it. But it's going to be Melinda Snodgrass and Gregory Noveck who are going to be heading that effort.
I've got this show called "Game of Thrones" that's on HBO, and I have a development deal with HBO, so I'm exclusively working with HBO. I'm not going to be directly involved with "Wild Cards," unless, by some chance, it goes to HBO, in which case all bets are off.
Q: As a science fiction fan and writer, what has disappointed you about how the future has turned out?
A: Depends on which me you're going back to. As a kid growing up in a world of science fiction and fantasy in the 1950s, I thought by this point we'd have a city on the moon and we'd have space stations and we'd be going to Mars and Venus and mining the asteroid belt. After all, we got to the moon in 1969, that was a long time ago. Somehow we stopped going, and that's very disappointing.
And, of course, like all science fiction people, I want my flying car. Where the hell is my flying car? Now by 1976, of course, those dreams were different from the dreams I dreamed in the '50s. I still think I would have liked to have seen more space exploration.
I think the 1976 me would have been very disappointed to learn that we're fighting endless wars in the Middle East and are still dependent on oil and that we have people like Donald Trump running for president. That would not have pleased the 1976 me.
Q: What about the future has excited you?
A: Computers are a lot farther along than I thought. In 1976, I was still writing my stories on a typewriter. I never dreamed that anything like the internet would exist. Now, that is exciting, but I think I would gladly trade the internet for a colony on Mars.
Q: Watching the video of your interview with Stephen King this summer, you looked like the biggest fan up there onstage with him. Are you living the dream right now?
A: I'm beyond the dream. I never dreamed this.
Back in 1976, I dreamed I might win a Hugo (science fiction, fantasy writing award) one day. But the kind of stuff here with the hottest show in the world on television and what's happened to me in recent years is nothing I've ever dared to dream of.
Q: Can you share a little bit about your writing process?
A: There's not much I can tell you. It's slow. I'm a slow and painstaking writer — always have been. Sometimes I don't know how the hell I do it. I sit down, and on a good day stories come out. And on a bad day, I struggle and I read my email.

A man visiting his elderly mother in La Crosse, Wis., ended up spending 17 hours in jail over an unpaid 1984 ticket for an obscure infraction.
Seems a background check during a routine traffic stop revealed there was an outstanding warrant for his arrest because of the ticket, which he got shortly before he moved out.
The ticket – which he said he never received – was for failing to display boat-registration numbers.
The burrito a Santa Fe, N.M., woman brought as a treat to a jailed friend had quite a kick to it.
Corrections officers found a hypodermic needle hidden inside.
And inside the needle was a brown substance that tested positive for heroin.

Dr. Peter Mobbs had been removing a metal plate from a patient's arm when he realized he didn't have the right tool to take out the star-headed screws used by an overseas doctor.
When his associate returned, Mobbs sterilized the $4.65 screwdriver and removed the plate.

Q. My Ash tree is going to be taken down and I would like to replace it with another tree of similar ornamental value. What trees would you recommend to plant in its place?
A. There are many trees that are hardy to our area and will have a similar ornamental value as an Ash tree. In order to decide on a suitable replacement, first be sure to identify the characteristics that are most important to you in a replacement tree. For example, are you looking for a street tree or a tree for the back yard? Are you looking for a tree that has great fall color? Is the height of the tree important to you? Once you decide the key qualities for your particular situation, there are many trees that can be planted to replace an Ash tree. Some of these include: Acer saccharum (Sugar Maple), which has great fall color; Cercidiphyllum japonicum (Katsura Tree), which can be useful in various landscape situations; Ginkgo biloba (Ginkgo), which has a similar height to a White Ash; and Tilia americana (Linden), which is native to Illinois.

To be a child of God is not just a belief. It is a way of living. It means to be led by the Holy Spirit, to truly know Jesus Christ for real, to seek His guidance in all things, and to do what He tells us to do, in real life. Many believers want to fit Jesus Christ into their life, but if we follow Jesus then He is our life, and He directs our footsteps, He provides in all our needs, He guides us and He teaches us, but we have to trust Him and follow Him; and that is what most believers never do. They have a form of godliness, they have religion, but they do not have Jesus. They do not know Jesus, they do not follow Him. They follow their own mind and they want Jesus to do things for them, according to their plan.
The kingdom of God is about Jesus Christ, and if we want to enter His kingdom, we have to follow and obey Him. He put us where we are for His purpose, and we can only serve Him, and serve His purpose if we are truly led by the Holy Spirit. But if we follow our own mind and try to get Jesus to do for us and give to us, what we think, then our lives are about ourselves; then it's not about Jesus. Jesus has a plan and a purpose for each of us, and we have to ask Him, seek His guidance trust Him, wait on Him, believe when He speaks to us, and then obey. Very few people do that.
Since I have committed my life to Jesus He has directed my footsteps. Both my wife and me serve Jesus together, and He has very often given us direction, and very clear direction. I will share a few instances with you. Some years ago Jesus showed my wife that we were to buy a piece of land close to where we used to live. The street name that He gave her was a River road. When we came to the place that Jesus had shown her it was a new development that we did not even know about, and we picked out a stand that we bought on his command and later we found out that it was River road. We built a house on that stand and later Jesus told us to sell it and use the proceeds to do what He further wanted us to do.
Jesus has guided us step-by-step in many instances, many circumstances. When we had a family crisis we prayed, and Jesus gave us clear direction when. When I had crises at work, industrial problems, I would pray and Jesus would give me clear direction. He would give me a dream, or He would tell me what to do. There are hundreds of instances that I can share with you that Jesus told us to do things; told me to go and speak to a specific person. Jesus sent me to university to go and study when I had no desire to study, but I obeyed Him. Jesus sent me to the United States, I had no desire to go there, but it was all for His purpose. We cannot tell Jesus what He must do for us. It is about us doing His will, being useful for Him and for His kingdom. If Jesus Christ is not our life, then we are not following Him. If we still want to have our own life, do our own things, and it's about us.
Many people want to use Jesus for their own purpose, they want Jesus to give them talents to do certain things, to achieve certain things in life. They want Jesus to enable them to go to college, or to do certain things; but is that the will of God? Is that His plan? We can only be pleasing to Jesus if we seek His will, seek His guidance. You might want to marry a certain girl or boy; that might not be the person that God has in mind for you, but you want that person, that is your desire. We must submit ourselves to Jesus, get our focus on Him and He will guide us, He will teach us, He will supply in all our needs. He will enable us to do everything that He requires of us, and we will bear fruit for His kingdom, because without Jesus we can do nothing.
Jesus Christ is real. He's alive, He is God, you first need to be born again and know Jesus Christ for real before you can follow Him, but you have to be serious. If you are not serious about following Jesus, then He will not guide you, and if He speaks to you, you will doubt and then you will totally go into darkness, because we follow Jesus by faith not by our own desires, or our own opinion. He often tells us to do things that are opposed to what we thought. We must not lean on our own understanding, but totally trust in Jesus and seek to please Him. If we still seek to please ourselves and other people, if we are still worried about what others think of us, then we cannot be concerned about what Jesus thinks or whether He is pleased with us. We must absolutely and totally submit ourselves to Jesus, trust Him, ask His guidance, be serious, wait on Him and He will guide us, every step of the way. Will it be easy? No, because it's not rational; it's not like the rest of the world; it's not like the other people, because we are following and obeying the unseen God, but He manifests Himself in that which we can see and touch, in real life. If you do not follow and obey Jesus, if you do not trust Him with all your heart, you will never get to know Him. We have to fully trust, obey and follow Jesus, obey Him. He will reveal Himself to us if we seek Him with all our heart. Jesus Christ is real, He is God, He is alive. If we do not experience Him as real, it is because we do not really know Him.


A six-month "season" for worship is a big undertaking. Why is this necessary, and why would churches want to take part for a significant part of the season?
Why is this important for churches?
Because the Christian church should always proclaim a Gospel message that is relevant and transformative.
Because the human situation today brings new spiritual and pastoral issues that must be addressed if our ministry is to be meaningful.
Because the disruption of local and global ecologies bring unprecedented moral challenges that threaten the viability of life on Earth.
Why is this important for Earth?
Because this time of crisis is a reflection of worldviews that are not working.
Because faith communities -- including churches -- are powerful places for telling and examining the stories that shape our worldviews and cultures.
Because, without the intentional engagement of faith communities, we are unlikely to make the great turning of culture that we need to avoid catastrophe.
WHY? These links open new pages to provide detailed answers for important questions about this project.
Why do we say that these are "Not Ordinary Times"?
Why do these times represent a spiritual crisis?
Why is our focus on worship?
Why are we not using the Lectionary?

The far northern Liaoning-based company, already a world leading aluminium producer, can claim obvious synergies in acquiring one of the world's largest aluminium superyacht builders, and this also dovetails with China Zhongwang's strategy of increasing its presence in related transport sectors such as aviation, automobiles and railways.
How it will affect SilverYachts in the Australian Marine Complex at Henderson, a short drive south of Perth and Fremantle, is discussed below, as are plans for a new SilverYachts facility in China.
The reigns on SilverYachts Australia have been firmly held by German industrialist Guido Krass since he began this venture with Norwegian superyacht designer Espen Øino in the early 2000s.
Setting up in a known centre of aluminium expertise – aluminium fast ferry builder Austal was next door, as was former superyacht builder Oceanfast and some Royal Australian Navy facilities – they initially named the yard Hanseatic Marine, a reference to the German Hanseatic League.
The plan was to build fast, custom, fuel-efficient superyachts over 70m under the SOLAS concept, which allows many more guests aboard. The first two vessels were 73m Silver and Silver Zwei, launched in 2007 and 2009, and are now called Rabdan, based in the United Arab Emirates, and Dragonfly.
The latter, owned by a well-known American IT icon, has been roaming Asia and the South Pacific for several years, and late November turned up at Abell Point Marina in Australia's Whitsunday Islands for an extended stay.

Next came the 77m Smeralda, whose owner retained her yard name, and same-length Silver Fast, making appearances at Monaco, Dubai, Fort Lauderdale and Singapore Yacht Shows. Selected prospective buyers could charter her since the launch.
Heading toward completion is the remarkable 85m exploration yacht Silver Loft, which has a sister ship ready for keel laying, and latest offering from the drawing board is the ultimate 100m Silver Global.
Bear in mind that all these vessels are premised on the belief that aluminium is the "green" and "dream" alloy of the future. The concept isn't exactly new, but the scale on which Hanseatic Marine, re-named SilverYachts a few years back, is building these superyachts certainly is.
Another view of Silver Loft making her debut this year, shown in an Omani setting
"Silver Loft", says the yard, "harnesses the world-leading fuel efficiency and technical supremacy of her predecessors. Working in collaboration with the renowned yacht designer Espen Øino, SilverYachts can now showcase the unique flexibility of these platforms.
"The 85m vessel reveals aggressive styling, expansive interior and exterior spaces, and the most efficient hull form to date allows a maximum speed of 24 knots, and a 5,000 nm range at 18 knots. This enables fast repositioning, and the low draft is designed for access to shallow cruising waters.
"German-based Andreas Hölnburger of Vain Interiors has created a luxurious and sophisticated design to match the vessel's intended use. Materials include teak and oak panelling. Metallic paints combined with oak and marble floors".
High-tech SilverYachts workers who built her will continue building boats in
Australia, while the China yard concentrates on Asian orders and commercial vessels
During a press conference late 2017, Guido Krass revealed that "SilverYachts has plans to expand its team in Australia, as well as in China". Espen Øino says: "Our Silver Series yachts are ground-breaking in design and building philosophy, in the way the volumes are distributed longitudinally rather than vertically, thus permitting a high length-to beam ratio, which is more efficient in terms of performance.
"The Silver Series reflect the basic core values of sound engineering principles whereby simplicity prevails over complexity, and finds its inspiration in the slender and efficient monohulls developed before lightweight materials and high-speed, high-powered diesel engines were available.
"Applying the same basic naval architectural concept in combination with today's state-of the-art lightweight aluminium construction and modern engine technologies is the brainchild of Guido Krass and myself. We look forward to designing the next generation of the Silver Series with China Zhongwang, for both the global and Asian markets".
Lu Changqing, President and Executive Director of China Zhongwang, says: "We are delighted to join hands with SilverYachts to navigate the high-end marine sector at full speed.
"SilverYachts is one of the pioneers in building large-sized, all-aluminium superyachts. It has an international reputation for producing visually striking, aerodynamic, high-performance and fuel-efficient luxury superyachts, widely known as "the sports cars of the ocean".
"Both companies share the same vision of offering best-in class products that exceed client expectations. The acquisition is a significant step to advance the company's aluminium deep processing strategy to the marine sector, and adds considerably to our international expansion".
The proposed new China yard, announced as part of the deal, is meant to handle construction of both private yachts and commercial vessels. Bearing in mind that Austal next to SilverYachts in the Australian Marine Complex supplies many of China's fast and sturdy aluminium ferries, this could well be a market of interest. No decision had been taken on location of the new yard at our deadline, but exploratory talks were well under way.
International yacht broker Camper and Nicholson is majority-owned by another Hong Kong-listed company. Dalian Wanda owns British builder Sunseeker, and there is heavy Chinese equity in two leaders of the Italian boating industry, Ferretti Group and Sanlorenzo.
How the deal was done
Jona Kan, Hong Kong-based commercial director of SilverYachts, is a lawyer by training. He was raised in the Netherlands, and speaks fluent Dutch. While working on projects for Guido Krass' German and Dutch companies involved in the green technology industry, he was asked to take a strong role in the business and corporate affairs of SilverYachts in this region

Red State Blues: Stories from Midwestern Life on the Left
Edited by Martha Bayne
Much has been made of the 2016 electoral flip of traditionally Democratic states like Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Ohio to tip Donald Trump into the presidency. Countless think pieces have explored this newfound exotic constituency of blue voters who swung red. But what about those who remain true blue? Red State Blues speaks to the lived experience of progressives, activists, and ordinary Democrats pushing back against simplistic narratives of the Midwest as "Trump Country." They've been there all along, and as the essays in this collection demonstrate, they're not leaving anytime soon. With contributions by journalist and scholar Sarah Kendzior, Kenyon College president Sean Decatur, Pittsburgh city councilman Dan Gilman, and more.
"Instead of seeing this collection as a gathering of frustrated liberal voices eager to be heard above the nativist din, Red State Blues is closer to a blues lament." Chris Barsanti, Rain Taxi Review of Books

Alfred Lilienthal, 1949: Israel's Flag is Not Mine
How very intriguing it is to read the early Jewish anti-Zionists! Lilienthal, an American, articulately decried the way his lifelong faith became a tool of Israeli nationalism, and used as a competitor intended to weaken his American identity. [H/T Servant Savant!]
ISRAEL'S FLAG IS NOT MINE
By Alfred M. Lilienthal
Dear Mother:
I brought you my hurts and troubles when both they and I were little: in that same spirit I bring them to you today.
Image by templar1307 via Flickr
Only last year, a new white flag with single blue six-pointed star was hoisted to a mast many thousands of miles away on the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea. This flag of Israel is the symbol of a new nationalist state, with its own government, army, foreign policy, language, national anthem and oath of allegiance.
And this new flag has brought every one of us five million American citizens of the ancient faith of Judah to a parting in the road.
Judaism, I have felt, was a religious faith which knew no national boundaries, to which a loyal citizen of any country could adhere.
By contrast, Zionism was and is a nationalist movement organized to reconstitute Jews as a nation with a separate homeland. Now that such a state exists, what am I? Am I still only an American who believes in Judaism? Or am I-as extreme Zionists and anti-Semites alike argue-a backsliding member of an Oriental tribe whose loyalty belongs to that group?
Let us start, Mother, with how I feel about this new State of Israel. I wish it well. I hope that several hundred thousand suffering displaced persons will find in it a happy home. I hope it will prosper as a center of democracy in the Middle East. But when its flag was first raised on May 14, 1948, I had no impulse to dance in the street with hysterical joy, as did so many in New York and London. ForI was born and remain an American. I have no ties with, no longings for, and feel no responsibilities to Israel. And I believe that the future happiness of the Jews in America depends on their complete integration as citizens of this-our true-country.
I am sure that if we Jews as a group are persuaded to divide that love which people normally give to their native land, it can lead only to disaster.
The Irish? They are a nation and Judaism is a religion. Irishmen here have left Ireland only in recent generations. The Jews left Palestine in Roman times, and have come here from every European country.

My one and only homeland is America. I am proud of my belief in the age-old Judaic concept of one God in Heaven and one Humanity here below. But my faith does not pull me into a feeling of narrowly tribal kinship with all others who worship God in this way. Whenever I read of Americans singing the Hatikvah, Israel's national anthem, or see youth groups raising Israel's flag beside the Stars and Stripes. I am outraged. For Israel's flag and anthem are symbols of a foreign state; ,they are not mine.
The most powerful weapon which Zionism is using on Americans of Jewish faith is its outward cloak of humanitarianism. The argument runs that Israel was set up primarily as a haven for the persecuted, the homeless, so why should we be critical?
Mother, the truth is that Israel was not created primarily for displaced persons. Instead, Article 3 of its proposed constitution proclaims it to be "the national home of the Jewish people." Meaning, Mother, you and me! As early as 1917 Dr. Chaim Weizmann, Israel's first president, was proclaiming: "We have never based the Zionist Movement on Jewish suffering in Russia or any other land. These sufferings have never been the mainspring of Zionism."
Rabbi Abba H. Silver, a recent head of the American Zionists, declared: "We must stand foursquare on the proposition that Zionism is not an immigration or a refugee movement, but a movement to rebuild the Jewish State for the Jewish nation in the land of Israel."
And what is the attitude of Israel toward those who adhere to the faith of Judaism but are citizens of other countries? Our "nationality" they insist is Jewish, no matter under what flags we were born; and, since we are not in Israel, we live "in the Diaspora," which is to say in exile. And their plans for us?
"We must," explained Prime Minister Ben-Gurion, in his first speech after the Israeli elections, "save the remnants of Israel in the Diaspora. We must also save their possessions. Without these two things, we shall not build this country."
So the vast Zionist propaganda machine strives to cement national ties between Israel and all persons of Jewish faith. And sending money to Israel is only a small part of our supposed obligation. The deeper objectives are given by Dr. Margoshes, an executive of the American Section of the Jewish Agency, as being:
" – to Zionize world Jewry. . .to establish Zionist hegemony over the developing Jewish communities throughout the world."
Image by helen.2006 via Flickr
Daniel Frisch, newly elected president of the American Zionists, feels that "the American Jewish community will soon arrive at the inevitable conclusion that the all-day school plus a chain of summer camps is the only solution to the problem," and that "we ought to be able to send to Israel American-bred young people who want to live as Jews minus the hyphen under the smiling skies of the reborn Israel. Our task has not ended with the birth of the Jewish State. It has but begun."
Have these misguided zealots forgotten the indignation which was aroused in America In the '30's, when the Bundists tried to tell Americans of German ancestry that they owed loyalty to Germany, and set up in America youth camps dedicated to German culture?
Today we see Zionists boasting of "Jewish" political strength, Zionist picket lines around British consulates, Zionists demonstrating against Foreign Minister Ernest Bevin when he arrives here to sign the Atlantic Pact, New York stores plastered with posters screaming "Do Not Buy British. Made Goods."
Are these people acting as Americans? Europe's recovery through the Marshall Plan is the keystone of our bipartisan foreign policy, which the Communists are trying to sabotage. Any boycott of British goods, organized or unorganized, helps this destruction. Now I know these Zionists were not consciously trying to tear down American foreign policy, but their actions were the inevitable result of living under segregation is not solely the fault of the other guy. Part of the responsibility is on our shoulders. True, the Jew is sometimes segregated by Christians. But it is also true that the Jew sometimes sets himself apart from Christians.
We have moved out of the ghetto, but sometimes scars of the long imprisonment remain. This is why many Jews even today feel at home only with other Jews. Many carry their Jewishness on their sleeves and are extremely self-conscious and sensitive to their separateness.
ALL OF THIS I understand: most of it I forgive. After all, six million Jews were wiped out by Hitler and anti-Semitism does exist, even in America. Why should each of us not be at least a little sensitive? This I think most non-Jews understand. But when anyone criticizes, however mildly, either Zionism, the State of Israel or the hysterical behavior of some groups of Jews, we have no right to shout "anti-Semitism!"
In any religion one can find a small group of fanatics who hate those of other faiths. Such fanatics are not numerous or important. It is Semitism-the constant effort of some Jews to assert themselves as Jews-and not their religion of Judaism which feeds anti-Semitism.
'No one knows better than you, Mother, that I, too. suffered humiliation from being a Jew. I have felt the arrows of discrimination. In my deep hurt I have cried out. But the discipline of two nationalisms. Were Hitler alive today, how he would laugh!
The plain fact is that we Jews are not a race and we should not let the Zionists persuade us that we are. Proof to the contrary lies in Palestine, plain for all to see. You had my letter, Mother, from my Army furlough there. I was second to none in my enthusiasm for what my co-religionists had done-for a desert brought to bloom, for clean new cities rising out of age-old sand dunes. All of these wonders had come to pass while only a few fanatics talked of statehood. One evening I went to see a performance ,of an opera in Jerusalem. In that theater lobby you could distinguish almost at a glance the Yiddish-speaking Ashkenazic Jew from Poland, the Spanish-speaking Sephardic Jew from North Africa or Turkey, the German Jew, Jews from a score of countries all differing in dress, language, manners and mental attitudes. I had visual proof of the arguments of anthropologists. who laugh at the notion of a distinct Jewish race.
Anyone who tells me those foreign Jews are exclusively my people that I should be closer to them than to Bob McCormick, the kid on the block with whom I used to play ball: or to Nick Galbraith, who roomed next to me at Cornell; or Dave Du Vivier with whom I studied in law school-that man is talking dangerous nonsense. I have also learned, Mother, that when something. goes wrong in my relations with non-Jews. I avoid the habit of thinking that it happened just because I am a Jew. Such self-pity is comforting, but it is usually wrong and therefore dangerous.
There is today a deep split among Americans of the Jewish faith. The Zionists are the more vocal; they have more organized political power. But they do not speak for all of us, and I hope not for most. On the other side there is, for instance, the American Council for Judaism, which insists that the nationalism of Israel must be confined to the boundaries of that state. There are also countless other Jews without any affiliation who revere Judaism as a religion and scorn to degrade it into a cheap racial nationalism which competes with their Americanism.
But when we protest the right of the Zionists to speak as "American Jewry" on the question of Palestine, we are told that Jews should not be disunited, must not fight among themselves on Palestine or any other issue. And if we still speak out against what we feel is a dangerous trend, we find ourselves reviled and ostracized as traitors. Coercion, often economic, frequently silences the freethinker.
But why should Americans of Jewish faith be any more united on questions of American foreign policy than are Presbyterians, Baptists or Methodists?
Have we forgotten the words of Woodrow Wilson in 1915 when he warned all Americans: "You cannot become true Americans if you think of yourselves in groups. A man who thinks of himself as belonging to a particular national group in America has not yet become an American. And a man who goes among you to trade on your nationality is not worthy to live under the Stars and Stripes."
Politicians of both parties who in the last election played to "the Jewish vote"' in connection with Israel will do well to reread those words.

The answer to bigotry and anti-Semitism does not lie in fanatical Jewish nationalism. Of course the blowing-up of the King David Hotel, the hanging of the two British sergeants, the assassination of Bernadotte, the massacre of Arab women and children at Dier Yasin were all acts of tiny groups. But they have weakened the moral and spiritual stature of the world's oldest religion. Israel's terrorist Beigin and Hollywood's Ben Hecht, who encouraged such lawlessness by saying, "Every time you let go with your guns at the British betrayers of your homeland, the Jews of America make a little holiday in their hearts!" such people are doing the Jews more harm than any words which Goebbels spoke.
There was no holiday in my heart, nor in that of the late Rabbi J. L Magnes, president of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, who said sadly following that Hecht statement: "We had always thought that Zionism would diminish anti-Semitism in the world. We are witness to the opposite."
All too many Christians have supported Zionism because they felt that Jews, having been persecuted, should now have what they want whether it is good or bad for them. Christian leaders can help us greatly. But Christian sympathy for Jews should be measured not in terms of support for Jewish nationalism in distant Israel but in accepting us as friends, neighbors and first-class citizens of this our country. That is true liberal Christianity. And also, Mother, good Judaism, that fine old faith which you taught me as a little child.

Putting Israel First | Same Old Change
Lilienthal was one of a few very great prophetic voices within American Judaism who saw the dangers of religious nationalism, and spoke out against Zionism.
But I don't think the real danger is dual loyalty. One can have multiple loyalties, if those loyalties proceed from a sound moral code or philosophy, and do not diverge too sharply from one loyalty to another.
The problem is when one's loyalties are divided between good and evil solutions to the world's problems. The problem with Israel today is not simply that it wants to represent all the world's Jews, but that it is becoming an apartheid state. Furthermore, it is rapidly moving in the direction of fascism.
Religious nationalism is dangerous because it takes a people in only one direction–to the extreme political right, to Jewish fascism. So the real problem is that American Jews support, or tend to support, reasonably progressive domestic policies for the US, but horrific policies for Palestinians in Israel/Palestine.
Sadly, the strain is so great, and the trauma of everything that has happened since the Holocaust so monumental, that American Zionists–and a fair number of American Jews under the influence of Zionists–have tended to simply blind themselves to what is happening by escaping in two ways.
First is the full-tilt escape into intentional stupidity. "Don't show me the pictures! Don't confuse me with the facts!" People who can't stand to hear criticism of Israel refuse to read the websites of the Israeli human rights organizations in the Holy State that they support so uncritically. If the Israeli state succeeds in suppressing those organizations, they'll be the first to celebrate, I'm afraid, because then they can pretend they don't see what's happening to Palestinians.
Secondly, American Zionists tend to escape into victim status, posturing themselves as pitiful victims rather than living like proud survivors. Only if American Jews become protagonists can they begin to deconstruct the systemic evil that Zionism has become, and probably was from the beginning. Whether they choose to do so is a separate issue. But first, one must stop with the victimology already, and start acting, feeling and thinking like survivors who do not need to apologize to anybody for being for or against any particular Israeli policy.
My guess is that a majority of American Jews will eventually do that, at which time they will most likely see that post-Zionist solutions must be considered in Israel/Palestine, as well as the conventional Zionist ones. So the strategy of the Likudniks is simple: carry out the slow ethnic cleansing of Palestinians before the American Jewish community wakes up to what Zionism has really become.

FACT: The Torah says God"s Historic Deed To Israel was given to The Hebrews,
FACT: The Torah says The Hebrews/Jews ill be dispersed and then be brought back to The Promised Land.
FACT: The dispersed Jews were brought brought back to The Holy Land slowly, then as a Nation in 1948.
FACT: The Torah calls Israel THE LIGHT UNTO THE NATIONS.
OPINION: Some feel that Israel is not yet to be a Nation, since Moshiak did not arrive. Others declare it is the right time.
FACT: While some disagree, they hold back respect and love of fellow Jews, indeed express hostility.
FACT: Judaism requires polite, respectful indeed loving actions toward those we disagree with.

2014-15 Opponent Capsules
Villanova Basketball Opponent Capsule: Butler Bulldogs
We continue our exploration and introduction of Villanova's 2014-15 opponents. Up next, the Butler Bulldogs, who the Wildcats will host for the New Year's Eve Big East Tip-Off.
By Brian Ewart@Brian_Ewart Oct 9, 2014, 7:00am EDT
Share All sharing options for: Villanova Basketball Opponent Capsule: Butler Bulldogs
Last Season: The Butler Bulldogs finished with a 14-17 record last season, and went 4-14 in the Big East to finish 9th.
Last Meeting/All-Time Series: The Villanova Wildcats have faced Butler three times on the hardwood, with the first meeting in 1996 and the last two coming last season in Big East play. Villanova is 3-0 against the Bulldogs in the all-time series.
Head Coach: After taking over the program from über-successful Brad Stevens (who left to coach the Celtics), Brandon Miller faced a disappointing first campaign in the new Big East, and now the school has announced that he will take a medical leave of absence -- though would not state the cause. Chris Holtmann takes over in an interim role, after leading Gardner-Webb to 21 wins prior to joining Miller's staff last season.
Top Returners: Butler will return two of their top-three scorers from last season's team in guard Kellen Dunham (16.4 ppg) and forward Kameron Woods (7.5 ppg, 9 rpg), along with forward Roosevelt Jones, who sat out last year with an injury. Jones had averaged 10.1 ppg for Butler in 2012-13, and added 5.6 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game.
Key Losses: Khyle Marshall averaged 14.9 ppg last season, good for second on the team, and his 4.8 rebounds per game were also second on the team. Erik Fromm also graduated after contributing 5.5ppg last season. Elijah Brown headlined a mass-exodus of Butler's 2013 recruiting class, having averaged 6.8 points, 3.7 rpg and 3.5 apg in 18.8 minutes. Also transferring were freshmen Nolan Berry and Michael Volovic, as well as sophomore Devontae Morgan.
Key Additions: The Bulldogs add three freshman and one transfer student this season. Forward Kelan Martin is their top-rated freshman at 4-stars, while 3-star forward Tyler Wideman will also add some size to their frontcourt, 6-8 forward Jackson Davis rounds out their freshman class. Small forward Austin Etherington transferred into the program from Indiana after averaging 2 ppg and 1.6 rpg in 10.6 minutes last season; he is eligible this season.
Also joining the program is former NC State point guard Tyler Lewis, who averaged 19.9 minutes per game last season and 4.4 points -- he will sit out the season due to NCAA rules.

Since several months we've been working on our new Route Optimization API, which is a powerful API for your problems in logistics and similar areas. It includes time windows, capacity restrictions and much more features. It'll be announced soon on its own!
Last week we had an idea: we wanted to make the integration of this new API as easy and straightforward as it can be. And the existing clients of the Routing API now just need to add 'optimize=true' to the request URL and the returned route is already optimized regarding overall time. So these clients can now easily solve traveling salesman problems too, and for all problems with more than one vehicle or more advanced restrictions you can still use our Route Optimization API. Of course, all times are based on real road networks instead of imprecise beeline approximations.
Decide to do route optimization instead of 'just' A-to-B routing.
Now calculate all travel times between all locations (A to B, A to C, B to A, B to C, …), which gives us the travel time matrix (also known as distance matrix). For example, if you specify 5 points then 5*5-5 travel time values are calculated – this is done using our fast Matrix API which is way faster than the sum of individual point-to-point calculations.
Now use the previously calculated travel time matrix to solve the underlying traveling salesman problem, i.e. to optimize the location order.
Finally fetch the complete route with the correct location order including e.g. elevation data for foot and bike routing via the Routing API.

Whore (puttana) (Whore) è un film del 1991 diretto da Ken Russell.

Trama
Los Angeles. La prostituta Liz cerca di abbordare dei clienti su una strada trafficata. Si ferma un uomo su un furgone, ma lei lo manda via poiché l'ultima volta che aveva accettato di salire in un furgone, all'interno c'erano diversi uomini che l'avevano stuprata e quasi uccisa; era stata soccorsa da un passante che l'aveva portata in ospedale, pagando addirittura le spese mediche. Lei gli aveva inviato poi un biglietto di ringraziamento e il loro rapporto era finito così. In realtà, Liz non sta solo cercando di procurarsi clienti, sta anche fuggendo dal protettore, Blake, uomo ben vestito ed estremamente autoritario, che alla fine riesce a raggiungerla in un drugstore e a farsi consegnare i soldi, cui Liz non può sottrarsi. Mentre fa una pausa per bere qualcosa in uno strip club, spiega com'è finita in quel modo: era una ragazza di una piccola città di provincia, sposata a un uomo violento e alcolizzato. Malgrado avessero un figlio, a un certo punto non aveva più potuto sopportare la situazione ed era scappata, portando con sé il bambino. Aveva trovato lavoro come cameriera in una tavola calda per il turno di notte e quando un cliente le aveva offerto del denaro per un rapporto sessuale, pensando alla paga modesta, aveva accettato. Era riuscita a esercitare in modo indipendente per un certo periodo, finché aveva incontrato Blake che l'aveva portata a Los Angeles. Blake le riserva anche delle attenzioni, ma col tempo l'eccessivo controllo che vuole avere su Liz li porta ai ferri corti: così decide di fuggire da lui.

Rasta, un giovane senza fissa dimora e artista di strada, invita Liz a vedere un film. Sebbene Rasta sia inquietante, Liz accetta. Alla fine Liz riesce a procurarsi un cliente, ma durante la prestazione questi ha un attacco di cuore: Liz, in preda al panico, tenta di rianimarlo, ma inutilmente. Proprio in quel mentre passa per caso Blake e, oltre a prendere i soldi di Liz, vuole derubare il cliente morto. Liz allora tenta di fermarlo, ma lui la stringe alla gola e minaccia di fare del male a suo figlio. A questo punto Rasta interviene in aiuto e uccide Blake sgozzandolo con una piccola lastra di vetro affilata contro una mattonella, in previsione di un successivo uso.

        pass

but it failed with error , so how to start new thread in python async function , i have read many articiles in google

A: Personally, I use the threading library. It works perfectly fine for all my needs.
import time
from threading import Thread

def test(s):
    time.sleep(2)
    print(s)

def main():
    t = Thread(target=test, args=("World!",)) # always keep the , even when there is only one argument!!
    t.start()

    print("Hello, ")

    time.sleep(3)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

I just ran this and it worked perfectly fine. Just a few things to keep in mind:
I am unaware of how to stop a thread. What I do is I just have a variable that tells the thread whether to run or not (my threads have foever loops) and if they dont run then I just end the loop and the threaded function ends and consequentyly so does the thread.
When passing the target function, dont call it. Do 'test', not 'test()'. if you use the ladder then it will call the function test and take its return value as the target value.
Lastly, when parsing values via the args function, make sure to put a comma after the value whenthere is only one variable/value being parsed because "world" would turn into 'w, o, r, l, d', and '"world",' turns into "world".

A: maybe you can try python-worker (link)
from worker import worker

@worker
def buy(n):
    ...

def mutli_buy():
    for i in range(10):
        buy(i)

async def txn_handler(txn):
    if txn == 1:
        mutli_buy()
    else:
        pass

your buy function will be run as a thread

Global Conceptualism: Points of Origin, 1950s–1980s
ShowingOctober 24, 2000 - December 31, 2000
Global Conceptualism: Points of Origin, 1950s-1980s, featuring more than 200 works by over 130 international artists, offers snapshots of the diverse iterations of conceptual, or idea-based, art over the course of several generations.
The exhibition examines the contemporaneous burgeoning of art that draws its meaning primarily from its content rather than from its form, or appearance, across the world beginning in the 1950s. Grouped into regional sections the exhibition is organized in two chronological sections: the 1950s through around 1973 (Japan, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Latin America, North America, Australia and New Zealand); and 1973 through the end of the 1980s (the Soviet Union [Russia], Africa, South Korea, and Mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong). These periods correspond to two waves of conceptualist activities that took place in various parts of the world as post-war social and political upheaval prompted among artists a re-examination of traditional forms of representation and a renewal of questions regarding art's social utility. Much of the art in the exhibition, which takes the form of photographs, documentation, films, videos, postcards, posters, drawings, as well as paintings, mixed media objects, and installations, was made to provoke the viewer by disturbing previously accepted ideas about social, political, and cultural systems.
Global Conceptualism; Points of Origin, 1950s-1980s was organized by the Queens Museum of Art, Flushing Meadows/Corona Park, New York, by a curatorial team consisting of former QMA director of exhibitions Jane Farver, now director of the MIT List Visual Arts Center; artist, critic, and curator Luis Camnitzer; and Rachel Weiss, an independent curator and professor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. The three primary organizers were joined by a corps of eleven international curators who provided intelligence on each of the regions examined. They include: László Beke (Eastern Europe), Chiba Shigeo and Reiko Tomii (Japan), Okwui Enwezor (Africa), Gao Minglu (China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan), Claude Gintz (Western Europe), Mari Carmen Ramírez (Latin America), Terry Smith (Australia and New Zealand), Sung Wan-Kyung (South Korea), Margarita Tupitsyn (Russia), and Peter Wollen (North America).
Major support for the exhibition and catalogue was provided by AT&T, the Lannan Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. Additional funding was provided by the Peter Norton Family Foundation, South Korea Foundation, Trust for Mutual Understanding, the Japan Foundation, Asian Cultural Council, Institut für Auslandbeziehungen, Shiseido Co. Ltd., and the British Council. The National Endowment for the Arts, New York State Council on the Arts, and New York Council for the Humanities, a state program of the National Endowment for the Humanities, provided generous support.

The most obvious conflict in Rocket Boys is that between Homer's dreams and the crushing reality he sees around him. Homer wants to build rockets, study engineering at college, and work for NASA, but this career path lies in stark contrast with what his father envisions for him: studying at college and then working in the coalmines of his hometown for the rest of his life. It's also probable that most, if not all, of the miners in Homer's community had lofty goals of their own when they were Homer's age—goals which they've given up on, or failed to achieve.
Because Homer succeeds in his goal of winning a medal at the National Science Fair, it might seem that the message of Rocket Boys could be summed up as, "Believe in your dreams." In actuality, Hickam's message is sadder and much more realistic. While it's true that Homer achieves many of his dreams, he also learns first-hand that achieving one's dreams is difficult and often impossible. While most of the members of his rocket club, the BCMA, go on to study engineering in college, their path to higher education isn't as easy as they'd assumed it would be, even after they win their science fair medal. None of the BCMA members, including Homer, get scholarship money, and Homer is only able to go to college for reasons totally outside of his control (his mother, Elsie, reveals that she's secretly been saving money for years).
The BCMA's success is further marred by the unlucky suffering experienced by a number of its loyal supporters. A friendly miner and BCMA collaborator, Mr. Bykovski, dies in a mining accident. Later, Homer's dedicated teacher, Miss Riley, is diagnosed with cancer. Miss Riley's diagnosis with cancer is particularly traumatic because she's sent to the hospital almost immediately after the BCMA wins the National Science Medal. These tragedies offer a powerful reminder that even the greatest successes aren't perfectly satisfying—there will always be some bad news to weigh down the good.
Homer Hickam Jr. got exactly what he wanted out of life: he excelled at engineering, and ended up working for NASA. Nevertheless, Hickam is intelligent enough to realize that not everyone can do as he did. Ultimately, he argues, people should believe in their dreams—but they should also accept that their success, or lack of success, is sometimes influenced by factors outside their control. Hickam ultimately seems to suggest that one must expect and accept some tragedy in one's life, while continuing to believe in one's dreams. The combination of ambition and acceptance is far more powerful than ambition alone—indeed, it's this combination that allows Homer to succeed.

For all the knowledge and pleasure they gave me, the books I read in childhood did not allow me to see myself past Coalwood. Almost all the grown-up Coalwood boys I knew had either joined the military services or gone to work in the mine. I had no idea what the future held in store for me.

20190717 Watts Narrows – No Guts, No Glory
Leaving Kutz Inlet Waterfall Earlier than Anticipated only to Tackle the Scary Watts Narrows by Day's End
20190717 Kutz to Baker Inlet via Watts Narrows
As previously written, Dauntless got underway earlier than I. I woke up a little after 6 a.m. only to discover that we were about a ¼ mile from our anchoring spot We were a ¼ mile from where we were the previous night. I can determine from the Coastal Explorer track that we started drifting about 02:00, so in 4 hours we drifted a quarter of a mile down the inlet about ¼ mile from shore with depth now more than 200'.
I started the engine and we got underway.
It was a typical summer day in the Inside Passage, cloudy with rain showers on and off all day. Once we got into the main channel, we had a quiet day moving north. About midafternoon, we were passed by a humpback whale heading south.
Three hours later, we were approaching Watts Narrows, which we needed to pass thru to enter Baker Inlet, where we would anchor for the night near yet another waterfall.
There are hundreds of passages called "narrow" in S.E. Alaska and British Columbia. Watts Narrows was the narrowest and scariest that I have encountered since Northern Europe!
I'll let the two videos speak for themselves. I made videos from inside the pilot house showing the Coastal Explorer chart and the Raymarine radar, while also taking GO Pro video from outside.

I'm an eclectic person, who grew up in New York, lived overseas for many years and have a boat, Dauntless, a 42 foot Kadey Krogen trawler yacht. Dauntless enables me to not only live in many different parts of the world, but to do it in a way that is interesting, affordable, with the added spice of a challenge. Dauntless also allows me to be in touch with nature. As the boat glides through the ocean, you have a sense of being part of a living organism. When dolphins come to frolic, they stay longer if you are out there talking to them, watching them. Birds come by, sometimes looking for a handout; sometimes grateful to find a respite from their long journey. I grew up on the New York waterfront, in the West Village, when everything west of Hudson St. was related to shipping and cargo from around the world. For a kid, it was an exciting place of warehouses, trucks, and working boats of all kinds: tugs and the barges and ships, cargo and passenger, they were pushing around. My father was an electrical engineer, my mother an intellectual, I fell in between. I have always been attracted to Earth's natural processes, the physical sciences. I was in 8th grade when I decided to be a Meteorologist. After my career in meteorology, my natural interest in earth sciences: geology, astronomy, geography, earth history, made it a natural for me to become a science teacher in New York City, when I moved back to the Big Apple. Teaching led to becoming a high school principal to have the power to truly help kids learn and to be successful not only in school but in life. Dauntless is in western Europe now. In May and June, I will be wrapping up the last two years in northern Europe, heading south to spend the rest of the year in Spain & Portugal. Long term, I'm planning on returning to North American in the fall of 2017 and from there continuing to head west until we're in Northeast Asia, Japan and South Korea, where we will settle for a bit. But now, my future lies not in NY or even Europe, but back to the water, where at night, when the winds die down, there is no noise, only the silence of the universe. I feel like I am at home, finally.	View all posts by Richard on Dauntless

Discussion in 'EasyApache' started by speckados, Oct 9, 2015.
I see that WHM/Cpanel still using the outdated version 5.4, which has also come to end of life.
Thre're a roadmap or prevision for update to 5.5.9 or up?
Also, if there're a roadmap for easyapache with PHP version 5.6.* ?
On last, it's possible compiling intrnal PHP? What modules need WHM/Cpanel for correct work?
We already have an item on our roadmap this year to get the Internal PHP version updated. However, we already provide PHP 5.6 in EasyApache 3 on CentOS 6 & 7 only.
Soory for confusion.. i don't like to speak about easypaache..
My interest it's only internal PHP.
There are currently no time frame or published roadmaps to report regarding an update to the internal PHP used for cPanel. These types of changes are typically documented in the change logs or closer to the actual publication.

Michigan Snowmobile Festival postponed due to coronavirus concerns
GAYLORD (AP) — An event that draws snowmobile enthusiasts to northern Michigan has been postponed due to concerns over the COVID-19 virus.
The Michigan Snowmobile Festival has been moved to February 2022, according to the Gaylord Area Convention & Tourism Bureau, which has hosted it since 2015.
"Our committee met in the fall and we were moving forward with the event with several back up plans in place to comply with COVID-19 restrictions," said Christy Walcott, the bureau's marketing director. "We waited until it was necessary to start investing in marketing the event before deciding postponing was our best course of action due to the uncertainty as to when restrictions will be lifted."
The festival features a snowmobile fun run which attracts snowmobilers primarily from lower Michigan, Ohio and Indiana.
