Q: MBP 2012 retina, OSX 10.13.6 - Hardware Self Check not accessible I have noted my MBP (Mac Book Pro) running OSX 10.13.6 seems to have slowed a lot over the last several months.
Holding down the D key as it starts up, one can access the self check hardware test.  There is also an option to hold Opt D to access self check the laptop via an internet connection.
I only get the internet option with just the D key?
If I try the internet option, having no choice, and put in password for my internet connection, I get a error message saying it can not access efi something (should have written what appeared on the screen down), then it froze.
I have previously been able to run the hardware self check on this MBP.
There seems no way for me to access this hardware test function.
Is this normal or unusual?  Any work arounds?

*This wine was sent to me as a sample from Pasternak Imports.
It's red wine season in my house. Finally. The weather teased me for a while, but it appears the cold is here to stay. I love wood-burning fire season, leaves crunching under my feet, and the smell of fall. Fall has a distinct smell to me. I don't notice it often here in Virginia, and it's among the things I miss most about living in New England. Today we tried the 2007 Les Deux Rives Corbieres Rouge. It clocked in at 13% alcohol by volume, had a plastic cork, and retails for around $10. I believe the current vintage is the 2008 for around the same price. The wine is a blend of 40% Grenache, 30% Syrah, 20% Mourvedre, and 10% Carignan.
On the nose I got some spice, raisins, sour cherry, plum, earth, eucalyptus, and mint. It had a slight sour smell overall. In the mouth I found sour cherry, red notes, plums, spice, and eucalyptus. Although there were fruit notes present, this was not a fruity wine at all. It had some decent acidity, but I found it to be a bit thin in general.
It is always a definite pleasure to snuggle while enjoying a bottle of great wine. Cheers!

Wesley Clair Mitchell (Rushville, Illinois, 5 de agosto de 1874 – 29 de octubre de 1948), fue un economista estadounidense, conocido por sus investigaciones sobre el ciclo económico y por haber dirigido el National Bureau of Economic Research por dos decenios, tras su fundación.

Biografía
Era el segundo de los hijos de un médico de la Guerra de Secesión que se hizo granjero.

Se doctoró en la Universidad de Chicago en 1899. Entre sus profesores más notables estuvieron Thorstein Veblen y John Dewey. Quien más influenció su pensamiento James Laughlin, era un especialista en teoría monetaria, opuesto a la teoría cuantitativa del dinero, y dirigió su tesis de grado.

Mitchell enseñó Economía en Chicago (1899-1903), fue profesor asistente (1903-1908) y luego profesor titular de Economía en la Universidad de Berkeley (1909-1912), conferencista invitado de la Universidad de Harvard (1908-1909), maestro de conferencias (1913) y profesor (1914 a 1944) en la Universidad de Columbia. También fue uno de los fundadores de The New School of Social Research, donde enseñó entre 1919 y 1922. A partir de 1920 trabajó para la National Bureau of Economic Research (Oficina Nacional de Investigación Económica de los Estados Unidos), de la cual fue director de Investigación hasta 1945.

Entre 1923 y 1924 fue presidente de la American Economic Association. Mitchell también fue miembro del "Comité Presidencial para Asuntos Sociales" (1929–33). A partir de 1941, hizo parte de la Fundación para el Estudio de los Ciclos.

Fue a través de la Oficina Nacional de Investigación Económica que Mitchell tuvo una gran influencia. Sus colegas más conocidos fueron Arthur F. Burns y Simon Kuznets quien en su autobiografía  reconoce "su deuda intelectual con gran Mitchell".

Obra

Mitchell y la Moneda
La tesis de grado de Mitchell y su libro publicado 1908, se centraron en las consecuencias del régimen de papel moneda inconvertible establecido por la Unión en la Guerra Civil. A pesar de referirse al comportamiento del precio del oro y los salarios en una situación histórica determinada, trascendió la historia económica al proporcionar una explicación detallada cuantitativa del comportamiento de la economía de Estados Unidos.

Mitchell y el Ciclo Económico
El ciclo económico fue una cuestión lo suficientemente importante para ocupar el resto de la vida de Mitchell. Sus libro Business Cycles ("Ciclos Económicos"), fue publicado en 1913. El prólogo comienza así:

En 1923 en la compilación Business Cycles and Unemplyement ("Ciclos económicos y desempleo"), analizó la periodicidad de las crisis cíclicas y las fases y características generales, a partir del estudio de los intervalos de una docena de crisis ocurridas hasta 1920.

Para 1927 en Business Cycles. The Problem and its Setting ("Ciclos económicos: el problema y su entorno), llegó a conclusiones generales teóricas:

En 1946 publicó con Arthur F. Burns su obra máxima, Measuring Business Cycles ("Midiendo los ciclos económicos"), un estudio sistemático basado en series de tiempo que comprobó la recurrencia periódica de cada una de las fases del ciclo económico, de manera que en cada una de ellas se encuentra el germen de la subsiguiente.

Mitchell y el institucionalismo
Según Mark Perlman

Historia del pensamiento económico
Mitchell hizo importantes contribuciones sobre la historia del pensamiento económico. Entre ellas el curso Formative Types of Economic Thought ("Tipos formativos del pensamiento económico"), publicado después de su muerte.

Catching Up With Circul'R
Home News Catching Up With Circul'R
Do you remember Jules Coignard and Raphael Masvigner from Circul'R? The two do-good entrepreneurs who started an organization to bring together companies from around the world in order to create solutions for a sustainable economy? Yeah! Those guys. We caught up with them while on surf trip in France to see how things are going.
SS: What's new at Circul'R?
C: It has been 5 years since we launched Circul'R, starting with a world tour to meet circular economy entrepreneurs. For 3 years now, we have worked to turn this project into a company. Our mission? To enable organizations to live in harmony with nature. And so far we have had a fantastic journey. We have launched impactful programs with companies so that they could drastically reduce their impact on the planet. One of our latest success stories is with Eurostar, the train that connects Paris to London. After a year of hard work, we managed to put in place the first zero single used plastic train in Europe. If this pilot project was replicated at a large scale, 5 million plastic bottles could be avoided every single year. And this is just one program we launched among many others to reduce the impact big companies have on the planet. The Circul'R team has also been growing and it's mainly thanks to them that we are achieving these results.
SS: Wow! What other current projects do you have and how are they going?
C: Major trends are pushing companies to move from a linear business model (where you take, make and dispose) to a circular one, where you use resources in a smart way in order not to produce any waste. More than ever, companies have to reinvent their business so it's not destructive but regenerative. Since the beginning of 2020, we have been working with many brands to help them change the rules of the game. We are working with the textile industry to give a second life to products that used to be burned or sent to landfill, we are looking for the future of packaging (reusable or compostable) for beverage companies, we are helping a successful startup to design a zero impact pair of glasses. Over the last two years, we have realized that the level of environmental consciousness has skyrocketed. It is a huge opportunity to change the way our current economical system works. This will move us away from a system that works against nature towards a system working for it. It gives us a lot of strength and motivation to keep on what we are doing at Circul'R.
SS: Anyway for regular people (like me) to get involved? Or you are focusing on the corporate level?
C: That has been one of the key questions over the past few years. Should we focus on giving tools to citizens to take action for the transition, or should we focus on companies that are the first polluters? We realized that many organizations and people were already acting to empower citizens such as Zero Waste, Extinction Rebellion, the World Clean Up Day and our beloved Greta Thunberg (what a warrior!). Regarding companies, we felt we could really change the way there are doing business with the help of our startup community. Today, our main focus is to transform big companies. At the same time, we also have a growing community of people, circular entrepreneurs or lovers that are sharing best practices and ideas to help each other to accelerate the transition towards a regenerative economy. This community can be found on Facebook (Circul'R Disruptors). There, more than 1,000 people are using collective intelligence for good and that's beautiful.
SS: Which companies / people inspire you at Circul'R ?
C: An entrepreneur that has been a great source of inspiration for us is Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia. His book "Let My People Go Surfing" was a great help to build the values at Circul'R and the way we work on a daily basis. The motto of Patagonia is the following: "We are in business to save the planet." And so are we at Circul'R. Some of our closest partners are re doing an amazing job to raise awareness on circular economy : Mud Jeans (created the first circular pair of jeans, reducing the amount of water needed to make a pair of jean by 70%); Fairphone (designed an ethical smartphone that is easy to repair);and last but not least SAOLA (thinking out of the box in order to design shoes while having a positive impact on the planet).
SS: What does it mean to you to be SAOLA Ambassadors?
C: Being a SAOLA ambassador is like being an environmental activist. When you talk about circular economy every single day, you need to show that concrete alternatives to the current economic model do exist. Clothes and shoes are our second skin and we use them every single day. It can be used as a topic to raise awareness on the environmental crisis. Especially knowing that the textile industry is one of the most polluting industries worldwide. Wearing shoes that match with what you are fighting for is key. SAOLA enables us to do this. This pair of shoes is a great way to communicate in a positive way with people about circular economy and about concrete solutions. It also a good fit with one of our core value at Circul'R: "explore to inspire." We need to be constantly on the lookout to discover new solutions, we need to test these solutions and learn about them. It is a continuous adventure. And for us, SAOLA also embodies this value.
SS: Thank you! Any fun plans for spring?
C: We are having fun everyday at Circul'R, no need to wait for spring. But if we had to give a guess, we would say a hiking or surfing trip with the team!

Hoteliers are quite often of the belief that social media is something that doesn't concern them. That they needn't worry about tweeting, liking, sharing across different platforms or responding to feedback online. But as expert hotel asset managers, we can tell you a good social media strategy will change the face of your business and increase bookings and enquiries, tenfold, with the facts speaking for themselves.
Research shows that a high percentage of room bookings are made based on word of mouth recommendations – and guess what? Most of these conversations take place online, on some form of social media. So, in an industry that relies so heavily on guest feedback, we think you might want to start taking an interest in the world of modern communication.
We have put together just a few reasons why you should be investing more time and money into your hotel's social media than ever before.
Reputation is everything in hospitality, so counteracting unsavoury reviews and negative comments with a quick apology or explanation of how you have rectified the mistake shows you are committed to customer care. Also, by outweighing the negative feedback by over sharing the positive, your online reputation will remain intact, something crucial to the success of any business in the digital age.
As an independent hotel, your brand is your biggest selling point and an effective use of social media is your best chance to accentuate your tone of voice and stand out from the crowd. This will familiarise guests with your style and level of hospitality and help you build a relationship with your potential guests, which will encourage bookings.
No one is going to know you exist unless you shout about it. Social media is a quick and easy way to promote offers and desirable room rates to a new audience to get prospective new guests into your property. Additionally, building relationships with guests who have stayed previously will encourage them to return time and time again.
Paid social is the future, and no one targets people better than Facebook. They hold the key to unlock the invaluable data needed to target your specific audience, so make sure you invest time into building your own database and money into paid social and you'll start to see your return on investment grow.
More and more people are booking rooms via their mobile phones and social media is key to encouraging this activity. Ensure your social media is up to scratch and encourage people (using incentives) to book via your website instead of OTAs. If you make it easy to book via mobile, direct from your social media ad, guests are less likely to book through an OTA, meaning you don't have to pay the commission on the booking.
Believe it or not, social media is great for recruiting fantastic staff, quickly and effectively. Make your property look like a desirable place to work and reach out to people you think would be a perfect fit to the avoid notorious high turnover of staff so prevalent in hospitality industry.
If you are still not convinced that you need to be up to speed on the latest social media trends, contact us today and we can talk to you in depth about what your hotel needs to be doing right now.
Call us on +44 (0) 20 8905 2500 or email us at info@michelsandtaylor.com to talk to one of our expert hotel asset managers.


Pretty excited. I heard about node.js about two years at Web Directions South. It was just starting to get coverage and a very small group of supporter were excited. The excitement in me died prematurely as I realised at that time hosting of node.js was going to a be pain. Now times have changed and it looks like everyone is into node.js. This weekend I am going to start learning it by reading the book Jump Start Node.js by Don Nguyen, on SitePoint. I will post a follow-up to what I think of the book.
It is a great start to node.js. You get a feel that it is something that is complex, but has a lot of upside. Obviously the 'Hello World' app is super complex compare to PHP's. Though I would say the abstraction of the server is why PHP's one is so simple. You see that the author has missed using sudo when running one of the commands, and some of the steps are hidden in the middle of a big text-block. It is a good start just a few small sloppy errors. All in all I am excited to get started with node.js.


If you're at all interested in the evolution of internet technology and human computer interaction then you should watch this TED talk. The beauty of this particular talk is that the speaker, Roger McNamee, gives names and assigns trends to a lot of the phenomena that I think a lot of us have felt in our interaction with the web - but haven't, up until now, had a name for.
In "google", "internet", "technology", "ted"

8. So what could have gone wrong..? • We looked into everything we could think of: • Was the customer's dashboard defined properly? • It was. • Was any indexed elasticsearch data corrupted? • No. • Was a large Kibana dashboard overloading our Kibana Proxy? • Not according to the CPU and memory monitoring. • Was there a hidden bug in our Kibana Proxy for certain queries? • Replies seemed to be correct for every query we researched. • Was any Docker container replaced recently, possibly with different settings? • Yes, but new settings were not introduced. • Was any Docker networking bug (and there are many…) interacting here? • Not any that we could find.
10. Connecting the dots… • Returning home, we each loaded the dashboard, and to our surprise – everything worked! • The same ISP served us and the customer, but not our homes. • The new suspect was our Internet Service Provider!
11. Results – 1 • The next day, confident, we experimented: • SSL vs. no SSL • Kibana's standard port 5601 vs. 443 https port • Adding our Kibana CNAME to Cloudflare • The results were staggering!
13. Results, solution and conclusion • The ISP was throttling our requests, causing timeouts and packet losses – eventually crashing heavy-loaded dashboards • Adding our Kibana to Cloudflare under port 443 solved our problems • (aside from wasting a whole day of our R&D team!) • Conclusion: trust no-one!


The Papua New Guiena Independent Consumer and Competition Commission announced new retail fuel prices for August to take effect today.
The increases were announced apart from slight decrease to diesel prices of just over a toea.
The retail fuel price movements are attributed to the price movements at the Import Parity Price (IPP) level for this month.
The domestic retail fuel prices for petrol, diesel and kerosene are inclusive of the IPP, domestic sea and road freight rates for the third quarter of 2018, the 2018 wholesale and retail margins for petrol, diesel and kerosene; including excise duty for petrol and diesel, and the Goods and Services Tax (GST).
Port Moresby fuel prices saw petrol increase from K3.71 to K3.72, diesel decreases to K3.40 from K3.41, and kerosene increased to K3.15 from K3.12.
For all centres, the maximum retail fuel price for each fuel product in the country will change on average.
Petrol prices will increase by 0.97 toea per litre, diesel prices will decrease by 1.15 toea per litre, and kerosene prices will increase by 3.01 toea per litre.
Retail prices in all other designated centres will change according to their approved in-country shipping and road freight rates (for the third quarter of 2018) that are charged by the fuel distributors.
As part of the ICCC's enforcement and compliance of fuel prices, its investigation officers will conduct inspections at all service stations to ensure prices of petroleum products do not exceed the allowable maximum prices.

RIP cancelled shows: The ended 2020 TV series you probably haven't seen
Some shows are granted season after season that they don't deserve (we're looking at you Supernatural). Yet some are cancelled before they've even been given the chance to spread their wings. Each year more shows drop like flies.
In the onslaught of 2020 cancellations, there have been many casualties. Whether or not they deserved more airtime, they've been pushed aside before they've garnered much attention. For better or worse, here are shows that have seen their final days in 2020.
Starring Kaya Scodelario (Skins), Spinning Out follows the story of a young, highly-talented ice skater who is giving fame another shot after suffering a serious injury. Wrought with dark secrets and crippling pressure, Spinning Out reveals some the terrifying & intense challenges that athletes face.
Despite being created by famous figure skater Samantha Stratton, the series didn't attract enough viewership to continue. So unfortunately after just one season of Spinning Out, you'll have to find more ice-skating drama elsewhere – maybe try Yuri on Ice (it's a lot happier.)
A story about processing grief after losing a spouse, Sorry for Your Loss features Marvel star Elizabeth Olsen (Scarlet Witch) who plays a young widow forced to reassess her life in the event of the tragedy.
Not unlike other shows coming from the unsuccessful video-on-demand service, Facebook Watch, Sorry for Your Loss was caught in the cross-fire. After just two seasons, the drama web television series has officially ended.
Another show that came from Facebook Watch, Limetown is about a journalist, Lia Haddock, who is bent on finding the truth beyond a mysterious disappearance of over 300 people at a neuroscience research facility in Tennessee. Limetown the TV series is based on a popular podcast fiction series of the same name.
After just one short season, Limetown has reached its end. Despite the killer cast featuring A-listers Jessica Biel and Stanley Tucci, Limetown fails to capture our attention and will not go on.
Fox's only live-action sitcom, Outmatched is about a blue-collar couple who are struggling to raise their four kids (three of whom are certified geniuses). Outmatched is just more proof that even if you have familiar faces like Maggie Lawson (Psych) and Jason Biggs (American Pie) as the protagonists, a show can totally flop.
Lacking all of the charm and personality of family sitcoms like Modern Family, Outmatched wasn't cut out for more than just one short season. RIP Outmatched, we expect more from our sitcoms nowadays.
After just one season we can say goodbye to Almost Family, a drama series about a young woman who finds out her father, a prize-winning fertility doctor, used his own genetic material to conceive upwards of dozens of children. With stars like Brittany Snow (Pitch Perfect) and Emily Osment (Hannah Montana) it's a surprise the show had hardly any traction with viewers.
Word spread of Almost Family's cancellation shortly after a story was released about one of the lead actors, Timothy Hutton, who reportedly raped a 14-year-old girl. Was it the scandal or the lackluster show to blame for its cancellation? Who knows.
A unique Netflix series, Soundtrack explores different love stories in Los Angeles through song and dance. The feel-good show is about overcoming challenges, holding onto dreams, & other fuzzy things that sound pretty when people sing about them.
Outshined by Netflix releases in the same month like The Witcher and You, Soundtrack was stripped of all the hype. If you were busy watching these other hit releases, you might consider going back to check this one out.
What do you think – did Netflix make a mistake cancelling this one?

My name is Chris and I have been numbers-free for eleven years. Maybe I've had a few lapses—snuck a peek at the latest complete list of manufacturers' horsepower claims, and maybe a quick review of the fastest production car Nürburgring times. It's hard to ignore all those juicy automotive tidbits flying around out there, especially for a former stats junkie like me.
Some of you may remember the story; it wasn't that long ago, Presidents Day Weekend 2016. I was still daily-driving my Suburban with the resurrected brake lines. The 'Burb was only still running because it had borrowed a volume of sheer will from my soul.
As a driver who is always trying to improve, having a data system of some sort in the car is always a key component for me. In professional racing, we have all the highest-tech data systems that have sensors on every part of the car, reading and obtaining loads of information through every inch of the race track.
I promise that I'm not going to make a career out of writing about the Rialta, the one-size-larger-than-a-Westfalia Volkswagen Eurovan-based mini-RV that I bought a couple of weeks ago.
Want to go racing, but don't have a lot of money or talent? Then look no further than the 24 Hours of Lemons! The BFE GP was held at High Plains Raceway last month. The relaxed atmosphere, hilarious cars, and intense racing make for a weekend of automobile shenanigans found nowhere else.

Tech at Heart: How Mollie Scaled from Bootstrap to Highly-Valuated Scale-Up
Topic - Infrastructures Domain - Cloud Technology - Google Cloud Platform
If you've purchased anything online in the Netherlands or Belgium in the past few years, you've probably been exposed to Mollie — the pioneering Amsterdam-based startup that's disrupting the payment industry. The company provides website owners with an easy-to-implement method for integrating payments into an app or a website. Founded by Adriaan Mol in 2004, its backend was built by the then 18-year-old Dutch tech entrepreneur while he was still living in his parent's basement. Today, Mollie is one of Europe's fastest-growing payment service providers (PSP), processing some €20 billion in payments in 2021 (up 100% in a year) and adding around 450 new customers each day.
More than 120,000 merchants actively use Mollie monthly, including Deliveroo, Unicef, Acer, and Guess. And recently, a round of massive funding catapulted the originally bootstrapped company into being one of Europe's most valuable startups. So, what's at the heart of Mollie's fast track to success? You guessed it, tech.
Providing a Seamless Experience
Mollie uses advanced technology to power its website and maintain an edge over its competition. Its unique platform uses intellectual property secured with a registered trademark so none of Mollie's competitors can use the same, or even similar, technology. On top of that, Mollie's website actively uses 59 different technologies that work behind the scenes to provide a seamless experience for its users. These are distributed over 35 different tech-related products and services, including jQuery, Google Cloud, Google Analytics, HTML5, iPhone Mobile Compatible, Google Font API, Viewport Meta, and more.
"Mollie is driven by technology, data, and the cloud," said its chief technology officer, Marco dos Santos, "For me, that means the technology needs to be present throughout the business."
Data-Driven and Cloud-Native
According to Dos Santos, Binx and GoDataDriven are at the heart of that business, having helped Mollie kick-start its data-driven and cloud-native journey, long before he joined the company.
"When we started, we didn't really have much knowledge about what it takes to run and build services in the cloud, so that knowledge and infusion of knowledge and that aspect of training really helped us get going," said Dos Santos, "It's clear that Binx and GoDataDriven continue to bring the expertise that we don't have here, especially in our transformation, migration and build phases, and in doing so, add value."
Previously, all of Mollie's application infrastructure was hosted on dedicated servers, running its PHP applications and MySQL database on virtual machines. If an error occurred, it could lead to slower transaction times until the technical team time had detected, located, and corrected the problem. To eliminate as many manual processes and associated errors as possible, Mollie decided to migrate its application infrastructure to Google Cloud.
Building More Reliable Products
The cloud offered Mollie a better platform so it could offer better products to its merchants in a more reliable way. Plus, the multi-zone, multi-region accessibility meant Mollie also had more options for its operations. Since Google Cloud was a reliable provider, the company could build more reliable products.
"Google and Mollie have common goals in terms of providing vendors with the tools to build their brand online," explained Dos Santos.
But there was another reason why Mollie chose Google Cloud over another cloud service provider. According to Binx, Google Cloud was a better fit for Mollie because the company already had a strong internal engineering culture.
"We were able to create an infrastructure design pattern so Mollie's developers would have everything they needed to deploy a web application with database content using Google Kubernetes Engine," explained Bart Verlaat, Binx CEO and co-founder.
After initially taking a lift-and-shift approach, Binx helped Mollie reconfigure its applications and create a cloud-native stack that could deliver the low latency response times required.
"We still have a big chunk of our services running on-prem, but we believe the future is cloud," explained Dos Santos. "What's most important is that the cloud expedites our time-to-market for new features and new products. Our ability to ship a new service should be measured in minutes, not in days. So that's where we see the cloud playing a key role in our growth journey. Accelerate it, ship faster, innovate faster, broader ownership, and add the self-service idea of the cloud," he said.
The Importance of Data
Binx and GoDataDriven's vast experience of working directly with banks, like ING and ABN Amro, also provided a template for Mollie to emulate, according to the CTO.
"It gave us a bit more understanding of how to run and scale, and what technologies to use," said Dos Santos.
Both companies also helped the people at Mollie accelerate their skills, empowering them to build innovative products, identify and resolve technical challenges, and contribute to achieving the company's long-term ambition — to grow from a payment service into a financial services provider and expand across Europe.
"When you're small, you're just basically trying to get that product-market fit," said Dos Santos. "But as we grow (and we already have over 100,000 customers), every change we make has an impact that can be a positive impact. And it could be a tremendous impact, but we need to be able to know what that is — so that's the importance of data in our business."
With the help of GDD, Mollie is developing its data capabilities, shifting from reporting to predictive analytics to improve the way data is ingested, stored, and consumed. While data is being applied more broadly throughout the organization, the data platform will become more important to facilitate automated decision-making like risk management and automating manual processes.
"GoData Driven understands customer problems and helps organizations like ours optimize by using data as an extra tool in the toolbox," the CTO explained. "Data-based decision-making and building data-related products all rely on a reliable data lake. GoDataDriven is really helping us to get that data lake and that data infrastructure to the next level, bringing more of a mindset of experimentation, and connecting cause and effect and impact to the changes we make," said Dos Santos.
Mollie is already using data for risk assessments and some automation and now has big plans to collaborate with GDD to create an infrastructure for production models and to ship models to production.
"Our ambition is, of course, to expand in Europe. Because we believe we have a great product that really satisfies the needs of customers across the European market. It's definitely a journey. We're not there yet, but we're leading by example. And GoDataDriven and Binx are both crucial elements of our team."

This study examined the effects of a 6-week strength-training program on serve velocity in youth tennis players. Thirty competitive healthy and nationally ranked male junior tennis players (13 years of age) were randomly and equally divided into control and training groups. The training group performed 3 sessions (60-70 min) weekly for 6 weeks, comprising core strength, elastic resistance and medicine ball exercises. Both groups (control and training) also performed a supervised stretching routine at the end of each training session, during the 6 week intervention. Service velocity, service accuracy and shoulder internal/external rotation were assessed initially and at the end of the 6-week conditioning program for both, control and training groups. There was a significant improvement in the serve velocity for the training group (p = 0. 0001) after the intervention, whereas in the control group there were no differences between pre and post-tests (p = 0.29). Serve accuracy was not affected in the training group (p = 0.10), nor in the control group (p = 0.15). Shoulder internal/external rotation ROM significantly improved in both groups, training (p = 0.001) and control (p = 0.0001). The present results showed that a short- term training program for young tennis players, using minimum equipment and effort, can result in improved tennis performance (i.e., serve velocity) and a reduction in the risk of a possible overuse injury, reflected by an improvement in shoulder external/internal range of motion

Backgroun and objective:The scarce water resources and Poor quality drinking water with the lack of a proper sewage collection and disposal system and increasing management problems due to rapid population growth made Islamic Republic of Iran to pay priority attention to the water and sewerage problems of districts in its five-year development plan. In this regard, water and sewerage project in Bandar Anzali became a priority by Guilan province Urban Water and Sewerage Company with the government partnership and World Bank financial support. The objective of this study is to complete the first phase of a two-phase study to determine the impact of using an urban sewerage system on acute Diarrhoea in children under five years of age in Bandar-Anzali in the Guilan province.Materails and methods: The study is a concurrent control before and after field trial which is carried out in two stages: before (phase I) and after (phase II). Sampling for phase I was performed in the middle month of each season, November and February 2009 and May and August 2010. The incidence of acute Diarrhoea was measured with the participation of 2400 mothers of children under 5 years old in the city of Bandar-Anzali in two groups: the intervention group (inside the sewerage system project perimeters) and the control group (outside the project perimeters). Data were collected by local female general practitioners and medical students in each city, under supervision of the community medicine department and by door-to-door interview with mothers. Data were analyzed using the SPSS 11.5 software package and the Pearson Chi-Square was used to compare qualitative variables between groups, and the t-test and One-Way ANOVA was used to compare quantitative variables.Results: The annual incidence of acute diarrhoea in children under five years old was 11.9%. The seasonal pattern of acut diarrheoa incidence was 12.6% in May, 13.3 in August, 11.5% in November, and 10.3% in February respectively. The highest incidence of acute diarrhoea was seen in children from 2 to 5 years of age.Conclusion: The study showed the incidence of acute diarrhoea on children under five years old in Bandar-Anzali city is moderate and it follows a seasonal pattern. The highest rate was seen in summer and the lowest rate in winter. It is expected to decrease with the initiation of the sewerage system program.
Clinical Features, Presence of Human Herpesvirus-8 and Treatment Results in Classic Kaposi Sarcoma
Özlem Su; Nahide Onsun; Hande Arda; Ömer Ümmetoğlu; Ayşe Pekdemir (Galenos Yayincilik, 2008-12-01)
Background and Design: Classic Kaposi sarcoma (KS) occurs predominantly among the elderly, with Jews, Italians and Greeks. Classic KS has been seen relatively frequently in Turkey. Our aim was to evaluate the demographic, clinical features of Kaposi sarcoma and etiopathological role of human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8). Treatment results of 18 classic Kaposi's sarcoma were also concluded.Material and Method: Eighteen cases of classic Kaposi sarcoma diagnosed as clinically and histopathologically between January 2001 and August 2008 in our dermatology department were taken to this study. Demographic, clinical features and treatment results were reviewed retrospectively in all patients. HHV-8 was investigated in the lesional skin of 7 patients.Results: A male/female ratio of 2/1 was found. Mean age at diagnosis was 67.2 (37-94) years. Bilaterally lower extremities were involved in 15 patients (83.3%), the trunk was involved in 3 patients (16.6%). Plaques and nodules were the common type of lesions (66.6% and 55.5%). Nine patients had no symptoms (50%). Edema was the most common symptom (38.8%). A second primary malignancy was found in 2 patients (11.1%). HHV-8 was detected in 6 of the 7 patients(85.7%). Majority of the patients were treated with interferon alfa (subcutaneously) and cryotherapy as a monotherapy or a combination therapy. Imiquimod was the second agent in combined treatment (27.7%). Conclusion: We suggest that interferon alfa and imiquimod can be used as first line therapy agents with their antiviral and immunmodulatuar features in the treatment of KKS.

On January 19, 2019, SARVAM organized a trip for the English Access Microscholarship students. More than 100 children, both boys and girls, went for this excursion to understand the architectural and monumental greatness of the ancient Pallava Dynasty. It was a wonderful opportunity to educate the children about the historical, archaeological and spiritual magnificence of our country.
The main intention of this trip was to familiarize the students with, and give them practical exposure to, some of the places of historic and spiritual interest about which they have read in their textbooks.
Before the commencement of the trip, the students were given a brief introduction about the significance of the alternate names Mahabalipuram and Mamallapuram; Mahabalipuram because the demon king Mahabali was killed by Lord Vishnu. The name was changed later by the king of Pallava Narashima Varman who had earned the title of Mamalla; the great wrestler or warrior.
The students were informed and then they discovered for themselves that the influence of the rule of the great Pallava Dynasty from the 3rd century till the end of the 9th century AD. It is apparent from the beautiful rock caves that the Pallavas were the pioneers and forerunners of new styles both in art and architecture, and Mahabalipuram is the best showcase of their skill and talent. The monuments are a fusion of religion, culture and legend. They are expressions through rock or caves, on a grand scale, integrating nature and sculpture. They received a wonderful peak into the history of the area with this trip.
The next stop on the trip was the Mahabalipuram lighthouse. Mahabalipuram was a busy port under the Pallavas as early as the 7th century AD. Bonfires were lit on rocks even at that time to aid the mariners. The British first used the temple atop the Mahishasuramardini cave as a lighthouse. The new lighthouse and the old lighthouse are adjacent to each other.
The stop of the day was the Maritime Museum, next to the Lighthouse. This naval heritage museum provides history exhibits, a decommissioned submarine as well as different types of ships and materials used in the construction of ships from historical times.
The trip was successful in more ways than expected. The students learned about the richness and beauty of ancient India through the monuments and other tourist spots they visited. It provided them a wonderful exposure to the political, archaeological, social, religious and aesthetic aspects of a great Indian dynasty. While they were absorbing all of these, they learned new words and terms, the importance of teamwork and having fun together and the wonderful aspect of discovering the world outside their little villages.

Q: Questions for Qt QML Hello, I have two questions about QML.

1. How can you disable window resizing? (for example, all my qml-s are 800x600 but when I enlarge the window you can see white space and I don't want to make it adaptive to every screen resolution, I just want to make my window's size fixed)

2. I'm using C++ to load qmls, but when I try to load more than one when some event happens (for example I need to load two qml's on mouse clicked) it just loads second qml.So my question would be how to load multiple qmls from C++ at the same time?

Thank you in advance.

A: *

*Foe instance, you can use QQuickWindow which is subtype of QWindow which has setMinimumSize and setMaximumSize methods.

*We need more detailed explanation of your problem. It will be great if you will put it in separate post.

A: (Question 2) I suppose you use the same loader for both files? If so, when you assign the second source, your loader forget about the first one and only load the second one. You need one loader per file.
You either have always the the instance of the loader or you can create them dynamically, so you could support any number of loaded files


The freelance industry is vast and lucrative, but there are also many traps and scams that lurk within the industry which must be avoided. These scams not only consume the freelancer's time but also pose great financial risks, and therefore, you should acquaint yourself with scams and the growing community of scammers.
There are many variants of freelance scams such as Guru scam, Freelancer scam, writer scam, desk scam, Elance scam and whatnot. Each scam is laced with some enticing offers, but if you want to get the best out of your freelance career, you better learn to detect and avoid them.
Employer: The company needs a hundred articles, each of about 500 words, for a budget of $3000. Please submit a unique sample of your work as part of your application.
Now, where is the scam? The scam works like this: you submit a sample, the employer rejects your application, and he/she publishes your unique article. This is an easy to solicit work without paying a single penny.
In order to detect this scam, take acue from the huge budget set for the purpose of attracting applications. Once you are sure of the scam, report the job posting immediately. Many freelance websites, as a part of their policy, prohibit requirement of free samples.
Employer: We require a writer for a content website. It is a long-term project, and to begin with it, you must submit 20 unique articles for the purpose of assessment. The Budget is $10, but if the employer is satisfied, the pay will increase.
In this scam, freelancers are being fooled to sell their work at lower prices. You will submit a huge batch of 20 articles at a meagre rate of $10. Quite often, the employers would turn down your application, but they have anyway managed to get articles for a cheap rate.
How to detect the scam? Well, look at the pay rate—if it is amazingly low and is accompanied with an ambiguous message talking about the possibility of earning more in the future, then you know the trap.
If at all you are applying for such jobs, state your normal pay rate. If they agree, fair enough; if they do not, don't care and leave. There is no compulsion to work at a meagre rate, and to keep yourself protected from such scams, always keep yourself updated about the prevalent pay rate in the market.
Never believe in these messages, as they are intended to solicit money fraudulently. They will get some money out of your pockets and disappear as if they never existed in the first place.
You can get hints from the ambiguity the messages keep regarding the areas where employees are needed.
In order to avoid being scammed, you need to undertake a thorough research on the credentials of the websites posting such messages. Unless you are pretty sure that the website is genuine, do not pay. Report the website as soon as you have credible information regarding the fraud being perpetrated.
Employer: We have an ideal job for the freshers and Work At Home Mothers without any experience.
On the face of it, the message seems genuine, but you cannot impulsively apply for the job without investigating. There is a reason why freshers are targeted—the pay rate is low!
You know there is no reason why a fresher should work at a low price when he/she is as capable as any other experienced freelancer. Of course, you cannot name exorbitant pay rates, but you cannot be forced to compromise too much.
The only thing you can do about this scam is to ignore it. If you are interested in the job, bid your normal pay rate. You will have to make this point clear that just because you are new or work from home, your work is not less valuable.
Employers often tend to employ when they are at initial stages of advertising their websites. Once they have attained considerable consumer base, they end up terminating contracts.
Employer: We need a rewriter for a fashion blog. Post the content on our blog and we will share 50 percent of the site revenue.
The message sounds like a sweet invitation but it is a sweet trap. You will end up writing a lot of articles, but ultimately, the employer will throw you out of the organisation once the website grows big.
Beware when you are approached by someone running a new website and you are offered only a revenue share.
One of the most perilous scams out there—you should seriously watch out for this one.
Employer: we require a content writer for a long-term project. The budget is $4000, and we shall pay 30 percent upfront by bank transfer.
The scam is that the employer is seeking your personal details so that they can use the information for criminal purposes such as identity theft.
One major clue hinting scam is the requirement to send personal details as part of the application. If they insist on your personal data, you know they are bad guys.
If you have second thoughts about the legitimacy of the employer, ask him/her to pay you through a secured medium such as Paypal. If they refuse, ask them to pay by cheque. Again a no, then you better chicken out.
Yes, one more important thing—report them immediately!
You may come across a message where the employer tries to contact you directly. Once you are selected for the job, they would ask you to send them your e-mail address so that they can work off-website and avoid the fees payable to the website.
The scam is that there is a high possibility that the employer would disappear without telling you. There shall be no accountability and you will be left with nothing but loads of disappointment.
In order to avoid being scammed, ask the employer to pay through the website. If they refuse, you tell them you will only work when things happen through the website. If they agree, it is good; if they refuse, chicken out.
This one is restricted to big projects with low pay rates. The scam usually starts when the employer hires you but does not press on the need to have a contract.
The problem with such engagements is that you will never know when the employers will disappear. You will have no instrument to enforce your rights, and this is something you will not like at all.
If you want to test the employer, ask him/her to arrange for a contract. If there is legitimacy, a contract would materialise. If there is are fusal, you know you better leave the job.
There is a class of employers who commend the job throughout until the day of payment. When the question of payment comes up, they have all kinds of problems. These employers do not use escrow and pay directly.
When you would ask them what the problem is, they will come up with all kinds of excuses such as the Paypal is not working and whatnot.
Sadly, it is difficult to detect this scam. But, there is only one thing you can do—you can protect yourself. Insist on being paid through the website's internal system, and you might not encounter many problems.
Employer: We require people to do Captcha entry. We will provide you with Captchas and you solve them. The Budget is $2 per 2,000 entries.
While you may end up earning a lot, you might become a part of nefarious activities such as spamming, hacking, etc.
If you wish to avoid the scam, you should know no one really requires Captcha solutions barring the company itself.
Here are, few tips for things not to do while searching for a freelance job.

Q: Flutter is installing two apps at the same time I converted a legacy Android app to library and placed it into my current flutter project to call it using Method Channel. It's working fine, but the problem is that flutter is installing those two apps at the same time and showing two icons on device screen! Even using this second app as library and dependency. Flutter is installing both as regular apps.
I am using flutter 1.7.8.
I tried to follow this answer -> How to use a library project in android studio
I would like to install only my flutter app and using the second one as library/dependency inside of it.

A: You have to changes the types of your second module as library, change
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

into
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'

on the build.gradle of your module.
and also remove any intent filter main and launcher on these module.
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>

Remove these part.

A: You might have two activities with below code.
          <meta-data
                android:name="io.flutter.app.android.SplashScreenUntilFirstFrame"
                android:value="true" />
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>

Use above code with only one activity, otherwise android launch two application at the same time.
For example, Use this in your code.
      <activity
            android:name=".MainActivity"
            android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|keyboard|screenSize|locale|layoutDirection|fontScale"
            android:hardwareAccelerated="true"
            android:theme="@style/LaunchTheme"
            android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize">
            <meta-data
                android:name="io.flutter.app.android.SplashScreenUntilFirstFrame"
                android:value="true" />
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>


PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Police are hoping some new surveillance video will help lead them to the person who vandalized the home of Meek Mill's grandmother. Police believe the person featured in the video is behind the tagging around South Philadelphia.
The words "acorn" and "acorn pals" were spray-painted on the exterior walls of the home.
Meek Mill, a popular rapper and Philly native, tweeted out some video of the tagger on Tuesday when he found the spray paint on his grandmother's house in the Graduate Hospital section of the city.
Philadelphia Police are still investigating this incident.

From glass art to street art, Spanish artist Gonzalo Borondo covers and merges both fields. While his murals are made of sweeping, expressive brushstrokes, he as off lately has brought a yet unseen technique to the streets, paint-covered glass panels the artist scratches to make his artistic subjects come to life. Borondo's work is featured in the URBAN NATION 2018 exhibition, 'UN-DERSTAND The Power of Art as a Social Architect'.
Born in 1989, Gonzalo Borondo started painting in the open space as early as 2007. Beginning as a tagger first, he changed the means of his artistic expression after studying fine arts in Rome and Madrid. He got in touch with charcoal, oil paint and tempura and brought these new ways of articulating his artistic philosophy to the street. Gonzalo Borondo's artworks are full of meaning, some works more subliminal than others, but they never leave the viewers indifferent. Be it in his earth-toned murals, his glass etchings or even art books Borondo infuses urban art with new life thanks to a more traditional way to perceive art and the impact art can have on the viewer.
