Q: Check if a device supports wireless charging How can I programmatically find out if a device supports wireless charging? I would like to hide some preferences related to wireless charging on devices that don't support it.
It seems like an easy enough question, yet I wasn't able to find an answer to it.

A: It's really hard to check whether a phone supports wireless charging programmatically.
AS shown in the following link that you can convert Samsung Galaxy S2 to be charged wirelessly:
http://www.instructables.com/id/Add-Wireless-Charging-to-Your-Smartphone/
It's more of a hardware feature than a software feature.
There is an organization which is trying to create a global standard and then you will be able to check with "Qi" logo on the box.
Details can be found here: http://www.wirelesspowerconsortium.com/what-we-do/qi/

A: You can make use of the BatteryManager and check for the constant BATTERY_PLUGGED_WIRELESS . You have to check like this

ROME, October 11, 2016 – "In Germany some persons are always trying to destroy me," pope emeritus Benedict XVI has said in the book-length interview released in recent days.
The key passages of that "revolutionary" address - his definition - of the pontificate of Benedict XVI are reproduced further below.
There is a striking contrast between this tough criticism and the favor that the German Church itself enjoys today from the pope who succeeded Benedict, as if this were the avant-garde of the desired renewal of Christianity worldwide under the banner of poverty and mercy, when instead it is plain for all to see that in Germany the Church is for the most part neither poor nor merciful, but if anything suffocated by its own apparatus and above all on its knees to the world on many crucial questions of morality and dogma.
In order to understand Ratzinger's criticisms better, it must be kept in mind that in Germany the Kirchensteuer, the ecclesiastical tax, is obligatory by law for all those who are registered as members of the Catholic Church or the Protestant Churches.
This tax brings the German Catholic Church more than 5 billion euro per year. An imposing sum, more than five times as much, for example, than the revenue brought in by the Italian Church with a state system of contribution - the "eight per thousand" - that is not obligatory but voluntary, and with a constituency of Catholics more than double that of Germany.
But since in Germany those who do not want to pay this tax must cancel their membership in the Church with a public act before a competent civil authority, and since these cancellations have been increasing in recent years, with the effect of reducing revenues, the German Catholic Church has implemented a countermeasure to discourage this attrition.
A long way from mercy. In Germany, the divorced and remarried receive communion everywhere with no worries, homosexual marriages are increasingly blessed in church, but woe to anyone who removes his signature from the payment of the Kirchensteuer.
Not to mention the influences that the German Church can wield over many dioceses in the southern hemisphere, which it finances with its revenues, in addition to the Holy See itself, of which it is a prominent benefactor.
But now let's hear from Ratzinger and his "revolutionary" address in Freiburg of September 25, 2011, as unheeded as it is of extraordinary relevance, not only for the Church of Germany.
Yes, there are grounds for change. There is a need for change. Every Christian and the whole community of the faithful are called to constant change. […] But the fundamental motive for change is the apostolic mission of the disciples and the Church herself.
The Church, in other words, must constantly rededicate herself to her mission. […] "Preach the Gospel to the whole creation" (Mk 16:15).
Through the demands and constraints of the world, however, this witness is constantly obscured, the relationships are alienated and the message is relativized. […] In order to accomplish her mission, [the Church] will need again and again to set herself apart from her surroundings, to become in a certain sense "unworldly".
he Church owes her whole being to this unequal exchange. She has nothing of her own to offer to him who founded her. […] Her raison d'être consists in being a tool of redemption, in letting herself be saturated by God's word and in bringing the world into loving unity with God. […] And therefore she must always open up afresh to the cares of the world, to which she herself belongs, and give herself over to them, in order to make present and continue the holy exchange that began with the Incarnation.
In the concrete history of the Church, however, a contrary tendency is also manifested, namely that the Church becomes self-satisfied, settles down in this world, becomes self-sufficient and adapts herself to the standards of the world. Not infrequently, she gives greater weight to organization and institutionalization than to her vocation to openness towards God, her vocation to opening up the world towards the other.
In order to accomplish her true task adequately, the Church must constantly renew the effort to detach herself from her tendency towards worldliness and once again to become open towards God. […] One could almost say that history comes to the aid of the Church here through the various periods of secularization, which have contributed significantly to her purification and inner reform.
History has shown that, when the Church becomes less worldly, her missionary witness shines more brightly. Once liberated from material and political burdens and privileges, the Church can reach out more effectively and in a truly Christian way to the whole world, she can be truly open to the world. She can live more freely her vocation to the ministry of divine worship and service of neighbor. The missionary task, which is linked to Christian worship and should determine its structure, becomes more clearly visible.
All the more, then, it is time once again to discover the right form of detachment from the world, to move resolutely away from the Church's worldliness. This does not, of course, mean withdrawing from the world: quite the contrary. A Church relieved of the burden of worldliness is in a position, not least through her charitable activities, to mediate the life-giving strength of the Christian faith to those in need, to sufferers and to their carers. […] Only a profound relationship with God makes it possible to reach out fully towards others, just as a lack of outreach towards neighbour impoverishes one's relationship with God.
Openness to the concerns of the world means, then, for the Church that is detached from worldliness, bearing witness to the primacy of God's love according to the Gospel through word and deed, here and now.

Toronto FC selling standout midfielder Vazquez to Qatar club
Toronto FC's training camp opened with a bang Tuesday with news that Spanish playmaker Victor Vazquez is headed to a team in Qatar. The sale of the popular attacking midfielder is pending a physical.
Spanish playmaker had 16 goals, 41 points in 52 games over 2 seasons with Reds

Toronto FC's training camp opened with a bang Tuesday with news that Spanish playmaker Victor Vazquez is headed to a team in Qatar.
The Major League Soccer club said it had come to an agreement to sell the attacking midfielder, but declined to identify the buying team. The sale is pending a physical.
Vazquez, who turns 32 on Jan. 20, has been the straw that stirs the TFC drink in his two seasons in MLS. A product of the FC Barcelona academy and former Belgian Professional Footballer of the Year, Vazquez had 16 goals and 25 assists in 52 regular-season games.
He scored the insurance goal in Toronto's 2-0 MLS Cup final win over Seattle in 2017.
PLAYER STATS: Victor Vazquez
"We're going to miss him," said a subdued Toronto coach Greg Vanney. "Victor has been a loyal servant to the club and a fantastic player, and an even better person."
I don't think we'll find a way to replace Victor exactly. — Toronto FC head coach Greg Vanney on pending sale of midfielder Victor Vazquez
The elegant Spaniard is a wizard on the ball, as he showed in games and in training.
Vazquez was a popular player in and out of the locker room. His rapid-fire English quickly filled reporters' notebooks.
Vanney said the Qatar offer was a long-term deal that extended beyond Vazquez's playing career.
Giovinco also on way out?
"I don't think we'll find a way to replace Victor exactly but we'll find a player or players that will also add to our team in this transition," Vanney added.
Vazquez made $1.5 million US last season, fourth on the team payroll behind Sebastian Giovinco, captain Michael Bradley and Jozy Altidore.
Ali Curtis named Toronto FC general manager, succeeding Tim Bezbatchenko
Adding to the somewhat negative tone of the day Tuesday was a comment by Giovinco who, like Altidore and Bradley, is in the last year of his contract.
"I try to honour my contract," the Italian told reporters in English. "We'll see what happens. I want to stay here but I hear something already this season [that] somebody wants to offer me to another team."
He declined further comment on the offer, which he called "serious talk." Vanney said that was news to him.
Giovinco, the league's highest-paid player last season at $7.115 million, repeated his desire to stay in Toronto. The Italian, who turns 32 on Jan. 26, said he believes he has another six years playing ahead of him.
Chronic knee problems
Vazquez was missing from Tuesday morning's training session with a club official initially saying that he had been given permission to report late. After the session, the club informed reporters of the pending sale.
Vazquez was slowed by a variety of ailments last season, restricting him to 21 league appearances (19 starts). Its playoff hopes gone, the team shut him down for the remaining three games of the season to undergo arthroscopic knee surgery.
Toronto FC acquires former MLS defender of the year Ciman
Vazquez has had chronic knee problems in his career, but was also dogged by a nerve issue and a sore back last season.
Given his age and the work needed to manage his health, the Qatar offer for Vazquez made sense to Toronto from a business standpoint. But barring an equal replacement, the Spaniard will be missed.
When healthy, he triggered the attack.
"Victor makes you look better so it's nice to have him on the field," midfielder Jonathan Osorio said in July. "His brain ticks a little bit faster than the normal brain, especially on the pitch. It's amazing to watch."
Altidore fit, hungry
Vazquez was 11 when he joined the storied Barcelona youth system in 1997. He worked his way up and made a handful of appearances with the first team before his career was derailed by a serious knee injury in 2009.
He made it back after a long rehab and scored for Barca, but there seemed little future for him at the star-studded club. He found a home at Club Brugge in 2011, earning league player of the year honours in the 2014-15 season.
Toronto FC's Vázquez has season cut short by arthroscopic knee surgery
A 2016 move to Cruz Azul in Mexico did not work out so well, with his family unhappy in Mexico City. Toronto made him an offer and, by all accounts, he enjoyed his time here.
On the plus side Tuesday, Altidore pronounced himself fit and hungry. "I can't wait to get to BMO [Field] and score goals."
The U.S. international said late-season ankle surgery had fixed a problem that had got worse since being hurt in a Columbus game in 2017.
The team reported for medicals Monday, meeting the media for the first time Tuesday. The squad flies to California on Friday for training camp at the University of California, Irvine. It returns Feb. 13 ahead of the CONCACAF Champions League round-of-16 match against Club Atletico Independiente on Feb. 19 in Panama.
33-point drop from 2017
The second leg is Feb. 26 at BMO Field. The MLS season opens March 2 in Philadelphia.
The only other players missing were Bradley, goalkeeper Alex Bono and midfielder Marky Delgado, who are with the U.S. team.
Toronto is looking to prove that a 19th-place finish last season was a blip after its 2017 championship season. TFC is coming off a 10-18-6 season, which represented a 33-point drop from its then-record 69-point championship season in 2017 when it went 20-5-9.
It was Toronto's worst season showing since 2013 when the club went 6-17-11 with 29 points.
The club has made few off-season changes with defender Laurent Ciman and winger Nick DeLeon the two major additions.
Gone are goalkeeper Clint Irwin, defender Jason Hernandez and forwards Tosaint Ricketts and Lucas Jansson, although Vanney says discussions continue about bringing back the latter player.
Canadian forward Jordan Hamilton trained with the team Tuesday and is expected to formally rejoin the roster soon, along with midfielder-forward Tsubasa Endoh.

SFU researchers develop novel method for predicting hockey performance
The system forecast the outcome for NHL player Erik Karlsson
Henry Tran
A software program designed by two computing science researchers has proven successful in predicting player performance.
When sport scouts look for young talent, they have to observe players across a number of games in order to assess their skills and techniques. However, it is not possible for the scouts to keep track of all games in the National Hockey League (NHL).
SFU professor Oliver Schulte and Zeyu Zhao, an undergraduate alumnus, developed statistical machine-learning models to combat these challenges. The assessment system is able to capture the similarity in roles and styles of hockey players.
"The overall objective of this assessment system is to be able to foretell how successful a NHL player is in securing a win for their team," said Schulte.
The model did just that when it predicted Ottawa Senators defenseman Erik Karlsson's key role, according to analysts, in advancing the team to the playoffs. Before the start of the 2016–17 hockey season, Schulte and Zhao released a paper in which Karlsson scored the highest of all the players.
"Karlsson's score was 6.09 and the next best player, according to the model, [was] Sidney Crosby, [who] scored 4.475," said Schulte. Karlsson was the only NHL player in the model to achieve a score above six.
Nearly a year later, and Karlsson is being credited with catapulting the Ottawa Senators back into the Stanley Cup playoffs.
By utilizing new game events and location data, Schulte and Zhao introduced a player performance assessment system that supports coaching, drafting, and trading decisions in the NHL. The assessment system clusters players who tend to play in similar locations into one cohort.
"Clustering players avoids apples-to-oranges comparisons, like comparing forward to defensive players," said Schulte. Within each cluster, players are ranked according to how much their actions impact their team's chance of scoring the next goal.
"Basically, our model can predict how a player's actions affect their scoring. We look at all the actions the player makes — block, hit, and pass — and assign a value to every action they make. At the end, we total up the value," explained Schulte.
The system builds on the work of Schulte's former master's student Kurt Routley who devised the model for valuing player actions.
In addition, players are clustered according to the heat map concept — the ice rink is divided into 12 regions and each region is colour-coded. Players who have similar playing styles end up sharing the same heat map.
Afterwards, the model compiles players with similar heat maps into one category, which then allows for fair comparison of the players within each respective group, said Schulte.
Although the assessment system is not 100% accurate in predicting a player's scoring ability, when Schulte looks at the top 20 players and his model's prediction, there is usually an agreement between the media's ranking and his.
Currently, the assessment system does not take into account the game time and arena space. Schulte expressed that deep learning and match prediction will be the two components he will be working on for the next phase of the project.

Divorce Day
Home / Latest Blogs / Divorce Day
The first working Monday of the year has been dubbed 'Divorce Day' by lawyers for at least a decade due to the high rise in calls and surge of divorce enquiries made to solicitors on this day.
The beginning of the year can be difficult for families, following the emotional and financial pressures of the festive period which pushes some couples to boiling point. After spending an intense few weeks in each other's space, many couples can begin to question their relationship and whether their partner makes them happy. Time off from work and a lack of distractions from their home life can cause people in relationships to sit back and evaluate whether they want to be with their other half.
Relate, a UK relationship support charity, said their website user activity increased by 84% over the first three working days of 2019 compared to the same time the previous year, while support service Amicable revealed more than 40,500 people will go online and search 'divorce' in the first month of the year.
This festive period saw 26 people lodge for divorce on Christmas Eve, 13 on Christmas Day, 23 on Boxing Day and 77 on New Year's Day. According to the Ministry of Justice (MoJ), between Christmas Eve and New Year's Day, a total of 455 online divorce applications were filed in England and Wales.
The UK Divorce Rate
The latest divorce figures showed that 101,669 divorces happened last year among opposite-sex couples; a 4.9 per cent fall compared with the previous year and a 45-year low in the UK. According to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), there were 8.4 heterosexual divorces per 1,000 married men and women in 2017, the lowest rate since 1972 and a 5.6 per cent drop on the previous year.
Experts have explained, however, this is not due to more couples deciding to stay together, but due to fewer couples choosing to get married. According to ONS, a change in attitude towards cohabitation as an alternative to marriage is likely to have been a factor affecting the general decrease in divorce rates since 2003, as levels of cohabitation rise while the married population drops.
Divorce rates among same-sex couples have tripled from 2016 to 2017 (from 112 to 338), however, this has been justified due to same-sex marriages only becoming legal in England and Wales as of March 2014. Nearly three-quarters of same-sex divorces (74%) were among female couples in 2017.
Why do most couples get divorced?
The most common reason for opposite-sex couples to divorce in 2017 was unreasonable behaviour. 52% of wives and 37% of husbands who filed for divorce, petitioned on these particular grounds. It was also the most common choice amongst same-sex couples, accounting for 83% of divorces among women and 73% among men. These percentages are lower than the previous year for same-sex couples where 96% of divorces among men and 93% among women were lodged on these grounds.
Divorce more likely among those in later life
Statistics have shown that divorce is much more likely to happen among men at the age of 45-49 (an average age of 46.4), and women at the age of 40-44 (mean age of 43.9 years). The ONS figures highlight that divorce among older people is higher now than in 1993, with a continuing year-on-year rise in the average age of divorce since 1985. Relate relationship counsellor, Gurpreet Singh, explained why this might be the case:
"You reach that stage of life when you have the money, the children have left home and you don't know if it is the person you want to spend your days with. The relationship is now just the two of you and this is why people end up in arguments."
A fifth of couples are staying together despite being unhappy
However, not all couples are considering divorce at this time of the year. New research conducted by Censuswide revealed that 20% of those in a relationship are staying in it even though they are unhappy. According to the study of 2,298 UK adults, people's top reasons for staying together were:
"For the sake of the children" (27%)
"I hope things will get better" (26%)
"Because I am used to feeling this way" (26%)
"We can't afford to break up" (24%)
"Because I made a commitment" (23%)
Despite the biggest percentage of couples staying together 'for the sake of the children', a recent poll from UK organisation Resolution found that 82% of children between the ages of 14 and 22 who endured family breakups would have preferred their parents to separate if they were unhappy. When asked what advice they would give to divorcing parents, one of the children responded:
"Don't stay together for a child's sake, better to divorce than stay together for another few years and divorce on bad terms."

Conscious barbarism: Pompeo ramps up war on Yemen in final days of Trump administration
Mike Pompeo. Photo: George Skidmore / WIkimedia Commons / cropped from original / CC BY-SA 2.0, license linked at bottom of article
Millions more Yemenis are now at risk of starvation because of Pompeo's Houthi terrorist designation, writes Chris Nineham
Mike Pompeo's decision to designate the Houthi-backed Ansar Allah organisation in Yemen as a "foreign terrorist organisation" is an act of conscious barbarism. Aid agencies involved in the country are warning of catastrophic effects.
David Beasley, Executive Director of the United Nations World Food Programme puts it bluntly, "The designation is going to be a death sentence to hundreds and thousands if not millions". This in a country already experiencing the worst humanitarian disaster on earth.
The measure's main impact will be to make it much harder for food suppliers to coordinate operations in the north of the country, home to the majority of the population. In a country where at least 14 million people are dependent on aid, the result is hardly in doubt.
Even before this move, Yemenis were terrified that no more food would enter the country and were stockpiling whatever they could find. Commercial companies involved in food supply chains are likely now to calculate that the risks of continued involvement involved are too great.
The United States says that it will introduce licences to allow some humanitarian aid and imports to continue, but those licences are not currently available, and they will only be available to aid groups, not commercial companies. Given that the majority of food is not supplied by aid agencies, such a system is simply not going to work.
As well as being murderous, the US government's move is cynical and hypocritical. The conflict in Yemen is being driven more than anything by the intervention of the Saudi-led coalition of foreign powers who have been supporting forces loyal to President Hadi with mass bombing, arms and blockades for the last five years. Latest estimates suggest 230,000 people have died as a result of the war.
The US is the most important backer of the war outside of the region, with the UK second. Both nations export more weapons to Saudi Arabia than any other country, whilst also both providing direct logistical support and special forces actively involved in combat.
Along with France, Spain, and Canada, the US and the UK have actually increased support for Saudi Arabia since the war began. For them, backing the Saudi-led war is part of a wider strategy of trying to isolate, weaken and if possible, overturn the government of Iran.
Faced with this catastrophe, opposition to the war and the West's backing for it is growing around the world. On 25 January, more than 260 organisations internationally have called a global day of protest to end the war and the blockade. The protest will be demanding that the new US president Joe Biden comes good on his promises to end US support for the war and that he overturns Mike Pompeo's decision immediately.

Our previous paper was dedicated to sport. The importance of team work is undoubtful. To write an essay on teamwork is a nice way to speak out of a matter. There is a working staff on every workplace and it is needless to say that there should be a teamwork apart of every employee to do functions on one`s own. Reflective essay on teamwork is an essay in which an author reflects the importance of teamwork if that is a teamwork reflective essay.
Teamwork if any is a priceless experience. It is always a good positive thing because of skills to work as a team are obtained during such a collaboration. Imagine yourself at the new place of work. You would want people there to work as a whole. It would be meaningful and delightful experience overall and simply a nice working day every day. A proper staff is like a family and fancy a family with no communication, no common work on the way to prosperity and welfare. Did you fancy it? Do you like it? No? Exactly.
It is remarkable and memorable if the members of the working staff stand for each other, if they help each other on a daily basis and apart from work if anything. At work we learn what leadership, collaboration, communication and team conflicts are. Sometimes, we feel lack of communication at home, feel misunderstanding while people at work become our solid and true family we never had basically. Our writers will gladly help you with any type of work you need.
One way or another, it is highly important to cooperate with others and working as a team makes it to where we realize all the importance of it and that very often a true friend is nearby. We just do not see it due to the hectic life and our worries. The prosperity of a company depends upon its team`s work. The more effectively it works, the better it is affected on a company. There will always be disagreements upon matters because opinions differ but the ability to listen and to strike a happy medium is always a winning ticket. Our service is here for you to assist you with your papers.


There are always a few things you can do to tweak your movement to improve performance. Whether it is helping you build a strength program, a mobility program, or a speed program I will have you performing at a higher level.

What Is a Redox Indicator in Chemistry?
A redox indicator is an indicator compound that changes color at specific potential differences.
Phenanthroline and bipyridine metal complexes: The metallorganic systems change color as the metal changes its oxidation state.
Organic redox compounds: In these indicators, a proton participates in the redox reaction. An example of this type of indicator is methylene blue.
The molecule 2,2'-Bipyridine is a redox indicator. In solution, it changes from light blue to red at an electrode potential of 0.97 V.

Santa Cruz Warriors vs. Austin Toros: Golden State Warriors assign Dewayne Dedmon and Nemanja Nedovic, Hilton Armstrong signed
It has been a difficult week for the Golden State Warriors, but the assignment of rookie Nemanja Nedovic to Santa Cruz for tonight's game against the Austin Toros might bring a positive development.

After practicing with the Santa Cruz Warriors last week, it was sort of expected that Golden State Warriors rookies Ognjen Kuzmic and Nemanja Nedovic would be seeing their first D-League action soon.
Although Kuzmic became one of many Warriors to suffer an injury this past week, the Warriors have indeed assigned Nedovic for tonight's game against the Austin Toros.
For us as fans, this might be an exciting time for Nedovic to get some run in the D-League: Nedovic played the most meaningful minutes he's played this season in Golden State's loss to the Portland Trail Blazers last night and looked good doing it. Statistics aside, he looked poised when handling the ball and his presence on the floor allows coach Mark Jackson to move former D-League star Kent Bazemore over to his more natural shooting guard spot. Tonight will be an opportunity to watch Nedovic a bit more closely in extended minutes against competition that we should expect him to perform well against.
While the Warriors' guard rotation has been made more potent with the assignment of Nedovic - it will be interesting to see how they even manage minutes with Nedovic, Mo Baker, Seth Curry, and Cam Jones - the post has been strengthened as well.
Joining Nedovic in Santa Cruz will be fellow Warriors rookie Dewayne Dedmon, who will make his regular season D-League debut after playing a pair of preseason games. And further bolstering an already talented D-League roster, 6-foot-11 post Hilton Armstrong has returned to Santa Cruz for a second season after starting 24 games for the team last season. Already familiar with the system and many of his teammates from last season, Armstrong should be ready to step right in and contribute.
The Warriors already beat a Toros team that features former NBA player Josh Howard and Flip Murray 121-102 in Friday night's season-opener. There's no reason to think tonight's game won't bring more of the same.

This Seat Is Taken In Mexico City there are separate subway cars and busses for men and women, a measure designed to protect women from men's unwanted advances. A new campaign takes a more indirect tack, using graphic persuasion to get the message across: a seat molded to resemble a male torso and anatomically complete pelvic region. Above it reads the message: "It is uncomfortable to sit here, but that is nothing compared to the sexual violence that women suffer on their daily journeys." The "penis seat" has had the intended shock value, provoking much controversy in the media. Whether it has cut down on sexual harassment is unclear. Some might argue that the seat is suggestive in a way that could actually give some people ideas. And who knows whether some men—and women—might find the ride in that seat not uncomfortable at all? Some might even think it improves their daily journeys. For them, alas, the seats are not a permanent fixture but only a temporary campaign to make women feel safer. Maybe.

Green runs on 'working harder' for 3rd District seat
GOP House candidate faces uphill battle, but he's undaunted
By Chris Lisinski, clisinski@lowellsun.com
Updated: 09/30/2018 03:03:45 PM EDT
1A Auto founder and 3rd Congressional District candidate Rick Green tours his company's Littleton warehouse with general manager Adam Kenes on Thursday. Green, a Republican, said the two issues he hears most about on the trail are infrastructure improvements and the opioid epidemic. (SUN / CHRIS LISINSKI)
LITTLETON -- With no opponent in the Republican primary, Rick Green spent close to a year running for the 3rd Congressional District out of the spotlight, keeping his presence known but having to wait until the 10-way Democratic primary settled to know his opponent would be Lori Trahan.
Now that the race is clearly defined, Green said his campaign has not changed beyond bringing on additional staff and volunteers. He continues to talk about infrastructure and opioids, two of his central themes, more than almost any other topic, and most days are a string of events to meet voters.
But despite Green's efforts, a question lingers as the general election draws near: Can he do enough to win in a district that, despite a somewhat independent bent, has not elected a Republican to the House of Representatives in 46 years?
"As a Republican, you've got to work harder," Green said. "It's just that simple. But my whole life, I've done things that people told me weren't possible, and I did it by working harder and smarter than anyone else. That's my path: work harder, work smarter."
Green came into the race with a footprint in the district and personal wealth. In 2000, he and his brother founded 1A Auto, an online auto parts retailer that also produces instructional videos on how customers can perform repairs themselves. Today, the company employs more than 500 people and, according to Green's federal financial disclosure forms, is worth between $25 million and $50 million.
He draws frequently on this background on the campaign trail, arguing that it portrays a record of success without the kind of political connections he thinks voters do not want to see.
Outside observers and experts say that could be an important part of his strategy.
"Green should promote himself as a businessman and portray Trahan as an insider if he's going to have a chance to win," said Rob Gray, a Republican strategist. "But to do that, he has to spend millions of dollars on advertising given where we are in this race. It's not clear to me that he's making a commitment to do that as of now."
The Republican is also the founder of the Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance, a conservative nonprofit group that has sent sharply critical mailers during election seasons while resisting calls to disclose its donors.
Despite Green's credentials, he faces a significant challenge. The 3rd District does have a history of voting for Republican candidates in certain races -- in his victorious 2010 U.S. Senate special election, Scott Brown received about 56 percent of the vote in the 3rd District compared to about 52 percent in Massachusetts as a whole, while Gov. Charlie Baker received 51 percent of the vote in the 3rd District compared to 48.4 percent statewide.
That trend does not carry across all electoral levels, though. In 2016, the 3rd District voted for Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump by a 23-point margin. The last Republican to win the House of Representatives seat covering Greater Lowell, either the 5th District until 2012 or the 3rd District since then, was Paul Cronin in 1972.
This year's election model from FiveThirtyEight, a data-minded media website, gave Green less than a 1 percent chance of winning as of Friday, based on the district's partisan history and fundraising numbers so far. The Cook Political Report, a nonpartisan group, rates the district as a "Solid Democrat" seat.
Gray described Green's task as "a very steep climb," while UMass Lowell political science professor John Cluverius called it an "uphill battle" for the Republican candidate.
"I know there's a desire by both sides to manage expectations, but the starting point of the race is that Democrats are outperforming in special elections their nationally expected results by high single- and double-digits," Cluverius said. "In a year that is so good for Democrats, something completely unexpected would have to occur to shift the district in favor of the Republican candidate."
Green has, to a degree, done what experts said he would need to do to put up the most competitive campaign possible. Gray suggested he invest heavily in himself and spend on ad buys, and even before the general election cycle started, Green loaned his campaign $170,000. Cluverius said Green would find success running a relatively moderate campaign and speaking about less partisan issues such as infrastructure, which is a favorite topic of Green's.
During an interview at 1A Auto's Littleton warehouse last week, Green said the two issues he hears most about on the trail are infrastructure improvements and the opioid epidemic. A central campaign promise of his is to repair Lowell's Rourke Bridge and the Route 2 rotary in Concord.
So far, Green has seemed to make a point of focusing more on those topics than than on more contentious or partisan national issues. In a recent 20-minute interview with The Sun, he rarely spoke about either political party or the Trump administration. Asked which politicians he admires, he jokingly answered with his own name and then said Charlie Baker.
He criticized divisiveness in Washington, but when asked what he believed to be the source of that division, he did not offer a specific answer. Instead, he said, he would rather focus on ways to solve it. Asked how closely his campaign is working with the national GOP, he said he is "running this race for the people of the 3rd District" and does not expect support from anywhere else.
Trahan has already made a point, though, to try and link Green closely to Trump. In a press conference as she accepted the nomination, she called Green "another voice, another vote for this president and his divisive policies," and that trend is sure to continue as the campaign unfolds.
"Any characterization of me as anything other than a reliable servant to the people of this 3rd District is flat-out a mischaracterization, plain and simple," Green said when asked for a response last week.
To this point, most of Green's criticism has focused on his opponent. His campaign is quick with press releases commenting on her pulling out of a debate or canceling an appearance at a rally last-minute, and he said last week that he believes her positions on issues are inconsistent.
"It's hard to understand where she is on most issues," Green said. "She's taken as many positions as Baskin Robbins has flavors when we've gone back and looked at it."
Pressed for examples of inconsistency, Green said Trahan violated her campaign slogan of "Born Raised Stayed" by traveling to New York City and Washington after the primary. (In a statement, Trahan spokeswoman Gretchen Grosky again linked Green to the president: "Rick Green can talk about ice cream," she said, mentioning health care, gun control and women's rights as areas in which he is "consistent in supporting the divisive policies of this administration.")
Whether the race between Green and Trahan will remain surface-level sparring or devolve into a more contentious affair remains to be seen. The two will participate in at least one debate, perhaps more. In the meantime, Green said he will focus on face-to-face campaigning as much as possible.
"We have to go direct to the folks," he said. "If we're able to do that, to work hard enough, it's a winning strategy."

Baylor kicker gets destroyed after getting his kicked blocked by Michigan State
By Robby Kalland | January 1, 2015
Michigan State made an incredible comeback to win the Cotton Bowl 42-41 over Baylor after trailing 41-21 in the fourth quarter. One of the biggest plays of the game for Michigan State was blocking a late field goal attempt by Baylor that would have put the Bears up nine points.
The block was impressive, but, to add injury to insult, Baylor's kicker got absolutely blasted on a block as he ran after the player who had scooped it up to return it.
https://vine.co/v/OwVVed7ZHtp
And now with Good Ol' JR on the call:
https://vine.co/v/OwVYDwMVP6l
The Spartans took advantage of the short field and scored the game-winning touchdown on fourth down with 17 seconds remaining. The Spartan defense got two sacks and then pressured Baylor QB Bryce Petty into an interception to seal the win on third down.

'The memories just swirl about me like ghosts'
Peggy is turning a dark girlhood romance into a novel and is trying to get a fellow patient in the mental hospital, the Duchess, to proof-read the manuscript. Frankly the Duchess would prefer a Mills and Boon story, but her friend's wartime tragicomedy soon gets a grip on her imagination.
At the heart of the story is Peggy's brief and unexpected affair with her employer, Willie Roper, with whom she falls madly in love. Initially imagining that her lover is going to leave his wife for her, Peggy is soon abandoned, pregnant, shamed and forced to fall back on her mother to make decisions about her future.
Agnes Owens had a reputation as one of Scotland's finest yet least assuming literary figures who consistently applied her eye for the sharp detail of life to her work. For the Love of Willie is often regarded as her most accomplished work because it combines such energetic observation with an exploration of some of the most painful and difficult questions regarding love, female sexuality and repression.

Q: Need some help on yield (and promises?) For a client Node.js application, I should "wait" for the completion of an http.request, e.g,
console.log('Before http request')
responseData = x.exec(parms)
console.log('Process data')

Module x:
exports.exec = function exec (params) {
  x = https.request(xxxx, function() {
    x.on('data' ...
    x.on('end'...
      return (returnData)
  }
}

If possible, it should be done without using any co() or other external modules. I have read all sorts of manuals, listen to a bunch of tutorials and tried all sorts of "yield" and function* combinations, but I just don't get it :(
Anyone willing to help a yield-newbie?

A: You cannot use the instruction "return" in an asynchronous function. Instead of doing "return (returnData)", make a callback "callback(status, code, returnData)" or simply "callback(returnData)".
console.log('Before http request')
responseData = null; //Just declaration
x.exec(params, function(status, data) {
    responseData = data;//You can check status to see if all happened fine
}
console.log('Process data')

Module x:
exports.exec = function exec (params, callback) {
    x = https.request(xxxx, function() {
        x.on('data' ...
        x.on('end'...
          callback(1, returnData); // you can made an x.on('error'... method where statuse can be 0
        }
    }
}

A: You use generators to 'yield' a promise so that the generator will stop running until that promise has been resolved or rejected. Here is an example using generator + promise for async operation:jsfiddle
function runGenerator(gen) {
    const it = gen();
    let ret;
    (function iterate(val) {
        ret = it.next(val);
        if (!ret.done) {
            if (ret.value instanceof Object && "then" in ret.value) {
                ret.value
                    .then(iterate)
                    .catch((err) => {
                        it.throw(err);
                    });
            } else {
                setTimeout(function() {
                    iterate(ret.value);
                }, 0);
            }
        }
    })();
}

function myPromise(){
    //Do Async Operation
    return new Promise((res, rej) => {
    res('Result from Async Operation');
  })
}

runGenerator(function*(){
    const myVal = yield myPromise();
  //Generator waits until promise is resolved or rejected
  alert(myVal);
});

UK: Criminal liability in the Online Safety Bill will threaten free speech
Posted on January 16, 2023 Digital 4 min read Share: Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on LinkedIn
Photo: Bits And Splits / Shutterstock
As the Online Safety Bill is set to return to Parliament on 17 January 2023, ARTICLE 19 urges members of parliament to protect freedom of expression online and reject the proposed amendment that seeks to hold senior managers criminally liable for violating child safety duties.
The Online Safety Bill (the Bill) is expected to complete its final stage in the House of Commons this week before moving to the House of Lords. As ARTICLE 19 has stated repeatedly, many aspects of the proposed legislation constitute a serious threat to freedom of expression and human rights online.
One of the main issues with the Bill is the disproportionate sanctions regime it seeks to establish. Under the Bill's current version, Ofcom will have the power to fine companies that fail to comply with their duties up to ten per cent of their annual global turnover and block UK users from accessing non-compliant platforms. In addition, senior managers may be held criminally liable for the failings of their company in responding to Ofcom's information and data requests. As ARTICLE 19 has previously warned, the severity of this sanctions regime will provide a strong incentive for companies to over-censor their users to limit their liability exposure.
At least 37 MPs have now introduced an amendment to the Bill that would make matters worse. The proposed amendment seeks to expand criminal liability for senior managers of regulated entities by introducing a prison sentence of up to two years if they fail to comply with the child protection duties under the Bill.
If passed, this provision would further incentivise platforms to remove any controversial content that could potentially be accessed by children to avoid criminal charges – with little regard for users' human rights. This is particularly true given the vague concepts and definitions that underlie the child protection duties under the Bill. Platforms are required to mitigate and manage risks related to categories of harm and to prevent children from encountering so-called 'primary priority content that is harmful to children'. These categories will not be defined by Parliament but by the Secretary of State, who will have the power to expand the list without adequate legislative oversight. Beyond freedom of expression concerns, the proposed offence is thus too vague to comply with the principle of legal predictability that should govern criminal law. In addition, the proposed offence does not require evidence of criminal intent but may be committed through 'consent or connivance' or even 'any neglect'.
Finally, we believe that, like the other excessive sanctions under the Bill, the offence is contrary to one of the purported objectives of the Bill: to ensure accountability of the largest platforms. Indeed, it is likely to deter smaller players that are unable to afford expensive legal advice from entering the UK market, thus further increasing dominance by very few platforms over the market and ultimately their power over public discourse and users' freedom of expression.
Beyond concerns about the proposed amendment, we remain concerned about the Bill overall. We reiterate that the Bill is an extremely complex and incoherent piece of legislation that will undermine human rights and rule of law and will ultimately be ineffective in achieving its stated goal of making the internet a safer place. We urge UK legislators to not shy away from the sweeping overhaul that this Bill requires in order to fully protect all human rights online.

Transit provides important connections for the more than 100 million nondrivers in the United States (including the one in five older adults who do not drive), according to the AARP. Still, many of these nondrivers do not have sufficient mobility options. Mobility as a Service (MaaS) offers potential solutions to the accessibility concerns that Americans with disabilities, lower-income Americans, and older Americans have. Public transportation will continue to serve as the backbone of any future MaaS networks that adequately provide services to those with greater mobility needs. New mobility services that do not work in concert with public transit services run the risk of segmenting ridership based on income and leaving lower-income travelers behind. Look into AARP's new report, Universal Mobility as a Service: A Bold Vision forHarnessing the Opportunity of Disruption, for more details.

Idle problem is probably caused by the idle speed being set too low, try turning the idle screw in a 1/8 turn.
Squeaky brakes could be crud imbedded in pads/shoes, or your caliper/drum hardware needs to be lubed.
garage kept, squeeks mainly early in a ride, so your liink makes sense, pads are still ok.
I thought idle needed adjustment, wasn't sure how much thought, go be sound when engine is warm? or get an attachable rev meter? bike one I've seen AYLAPS (At Your Local Auto Parts Shop) where min 2 cylinder (not sure how to read it for a single).
Engine needs to be hot to tune the idle speed and mix, but in your case I would just turn the speed screw in an 1/8th turn till it doesn't stall when you suddenly release the throttle from WOT. Although I would possibly tune the idle mix, because your mix might be off, too.
5. Turn the mix screw out 1/8th turn at a time and wait 10 seconds to see/hear if the idle speed increases or decreases.
A tachometer might help if your ear isn't calibrated well enough.
Resurrecting this thread re: squeaky front brakes. Any others have this problem consistently? My bike has chronic brake squeak, even after 2k miles of riding. Is it just that there's a high metal content in the brake pads? Have others had this problem and found a good fix?
As for a fix, the old post links to this article about "bedding in" your brakes. It sounds like the brakes have to be relatively new in order for this to work, although it's not clear. If you do try it, I'd love to hear your results.

vulgar than ever, and rue Royal one block away, with its elegant antique shops and restaurants intact and thriving once more. Now, New Orleans, climbing out of its post-Katrina funk, offers learning and literature to lure back tourists.
The vulgarity of Bourbon Street quickly gives way to lovely houses and hidden leafy courtyards, museums like the old New Orleans Mint exhibiting a collection of 19th-century money-making equipment and, until January, a breathtaking display of gold from ancient times. Its restaurants include Galatoire's, the place to be seen for Friday lunch, and Brennan's, the place for Sunday brunch.
Mardi Gras is on the way, but this year the Big Easy celebrated literature, with the Tennessee Williams Festival in the spring and the William Faulkner Festival just concluded. The Quarter - the Vieux Carre - is "the cloistered heart of the city," rescued from decay by writers in the 1920s, where William Faulkner, Ernest Hemingway, Sherwood Anderson and others worked, or tried to. Some of their earlier stories were published by a French Quarter magazine, long gone, called the Double Dealer.
Words and Music, the official name of the Faulkner festival, was originally celebrated around his birthday, Sept. 25, but moved to November to avoid hurricanes, which this year never arrived. Faulkner, like Tennessee Williams, finally left, saying he couldn't write anything in New Orleans. The city, where culture collides with voluptuous and easy gratification, is sometimes too seductive for serious work.
This year, the Williams festival was subtitled "A Cultural Collision Which Works," and included sessions on "Writing With a World View," "Pan American Voices," "Narratives for the Silver Screen," "Turning Terrible Reality Into Gripping Fiction and the Fallout for Every-Day People," "Every-Day Lives From the Culture of War and Terrorism" and, of course, "Finding the Right Agent."
The conference always includes something about Faulkner's work. This year, it was an entertaining master class for readers: "How to Read Faulkner and Love It: The Sly Humor of William Faulkner."

UnTapped, at its core, is a weekly exercise for the ears. In the arena of faith, there are few places where it is safe to have a conversation with diverse perspectives. We are trying to make one of these safe places in our weekly conversation. We hope to establish a conversation where we can hear and learn from perspectives and experiences we would not otherwise hear about.
Thanks to everybody that has been a part of the conversation over the past several years. Cheers!

Dappy
Movie Characters
HIDDEN ERROR: Usage of "Nationality" is not recognizedCostadinos Contostavlos (born 11 June 1987), better known by his stage name Dappy, is an English singer, songwriter, rapper, and actor. He is best known for being the lead singer of the Camden-based grime trio N-Dubz, with his cousin Tulisa and their friend Fazer. He was known for his slightly unusual dress sense and his love for what he describes as "eye-catching headwear". His trademark was wearing a selection of woolly chullos (sometimes referred to as "Dappy hats"), turning up one or both of the ear-flaps of the hat.
Born and raised in Camden Town, North London, Contostavlos grew up with his parents, Byron Contostavlos and Zoi Agorou and older brother Spiros. His father had been a member of the group Mungo Jerry. Byron died on 12 April 2007. He is of Greek-Cypriot descent.
When Contostavlos was younger, he attended Richard Cobden Primary school, then St Aloysius secondary, a Roman Catholic boys-only school in Islington, attending for a year before being expelled for truancy. In N-Dubz's book Against All Odds: From Street Life to Chart Life, Dappy says that he doesn't remember the school "because I wasn't there often". He then attended Bishop Douglass School when he was around twelve years old, where he got into fights "almost everyday", which "...always started if someone had been making fun of me or something stupid".

They say that I'm dangerous
Like everything I touch it falls apart
If I were to tell, they'll kill me now
So imam cut to the chase
I used to wish on a star but nowadays I need space: Satellites
See the black shades white chain, flashing lights
Never thought I could do this low in the highlights
So I asked Phyllis if I could spend another day in paradise
It's the heaven for the gorellem 27
Could it be three years that I'm jammin' with legends?
I got thousands of fans, I don't get the obsession
There's a nice guy inside, I guess I've never met him
I could buy a fast car
But not even an aeroplane can seem to get me out of here
The pressure and the stress are both dying to see the end of me
And the man in the mirror is looking at me like an enemy
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger every time
Don't let em tell you how to live your life
Cause I'm living like a Rockstar
I aint afraid to die young
Cause I be living like a rockstar
I blow up a million miles away
Uhh Ohh Ohh Uhh Ohh Ohh Uhh Ohh Ohh
Chicka BANG BANG
Mama always told me there's someone looking over me
Think she meant the guy with the camera tryna follow me
Be careful what you wish for, cause the truths a little different
If the guardian's my angel, I wish sometimes he would call to me
Then everythings all public, but I didn't prepare
I get shhok up everytime I'm in your bed
Put a star in the room, man I swear it changes the atmosphere
Cause I'm a celebrity, can someone get me out of here
Cause I don't care, I don't care
Take me there, take me thaere
Na nan a I aint scared, I aint scared
But Imma cut to the chase
You ain't a legend till your set in stone
But now your just flesh and bone
Just a lickle brother tryna raise a home
I'll be the best till my dying breath: Brian Jones
A wise girl once sang tears dry on their own
Fuck a moment of silence in my house
We shut the whole shit down for Winehouse
You, so I've got something to say
Take aim, pull the trigger
Cause your never going to blow me away
(Guitar solo)
Uhh Uhh

Vaccines Not Durable, Omicron Might Turn COVID-19 Endemic: Bill Gates
The Epoch Times | 15 Jan 2022


DALLAS, TX—According to inspiring reports coming out of local man Jacob Beaman's residence Tuesday, the believer in Christ was empowered by the Holy Spirit dwelling within him to make it all the way to the end of a Christian movie, against all odds.
"It's like the Scripture teaches in the 'Footprints in the Sand' passage: when the movie was at its worst, it was then that He carried me," he added tearfully.
After nearly giving up during the apparent climax of the film—a soft-lit, strings accompanied scene three quarters of the way through in which the main actor attempted to emote through their redemption—Beaman bravely pressed on, finding strength and encouragement by repeatedly reciting the inspired words of Philippians 4:13.

Suchart Yodkerepauprai
Photo by Sabrina Armani
Martial artist and instructor
Proud trainer
Suchart Yodkerepauprai is proud. He's proud because he has a role in getting many young men off the streets and turning them into responsible citizens. He does this by teaching them his native Thailand's form of martial art, Muay Thai.
At Yodkerepauprai's Siam No. 1 Thai Boxing Academy in Toronto, up to six former gang members and street kids, reside and train. More than 40 women and 250 men also visit the centre daily to learn the martial art to improve their physical and mental fitness, and self-defence skills.
His training has also helped a number of his students find work in policing and related fields. More than 100 others have also chosen to become paramedics, fire fighters and government and private security officers, he notes. "I feel proud when I get calls from employers asking about my association with these [students]," he says.
The little time Yodkerepauprai has to spare outside of the ring is devoted to bringing together his small community as president of the Thai Society of Ontario. He also supports local charities such as the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, Hospital for Sick Kids, Yellow Brick House and the War Amps of Canada.
One of his most rewarding community achievements of late is setting in motion the International Olympics Committee's consideration of Muay Thai for inclusion in the Olympic Games. It has been approved as a demonstration sport in the 2012 Summer Olympics and, four years later, it will become official.
In the meantime, Yodkerepauprai is preparing some of his student instructors to go to community centres across the Greater Toronto Area to teach Muay Thai for free, as a gift to Canada. "I feel good," he says with a satisfied smile. "I am happy that I'm able to make the Canadian society better at the same time as spreading the goodness of my culture."

Boy left in woods as punishment disappears
Rob Quinn
Newser Staff
(NEWSER) – Rescuers are scouring bear-infested woods in northern Japan for a little boy who was abandoned by his parents as punishment. Police say that the parents of 7-year-old Yamato Tanooka reported the boy missing on Saturday but initially lied to investigators, claiming he had vanished while they were picking wild vegetables, the Japan Times reports. They later confessed that they ordered him out of their car in the mountains to punish him for throwing rocks at cars earlier in the day. The boy's father, 44-year-old Takayuki Tanooka, said they stopped the car half a mile away and walked back to where they left the boy, but he was no longer there.
On Monday, more than 150 police officers and volunteers continued the search near the town of Nanae in Hokkaido, Japan's northernmost main island, checking streams and heavy undergrowth. It isn't clear whether the parents will face charges for abandoning the boy. The Telegraph notes that there are around 3,000 Ussuri brown bears on the island, and they can be extremely aggressive. This month, two men picking wild bamboo shoots in the area were killed in two separate bear attacks.

Ferrari is one brand that every person has heard of. One may not know if a brand named BMW or Mercedes-Benz or Audi, exists but he will definitely know that Ferrari is a brand that manufactures fast cars.
So it is quite evident that the Ferrari fans are all over the place and if you are one then this news will certainly amuse you. The brand is going to showcase a its sports car line-up at the 2012 Auto Expo.
If you were planning to go to the Auto Expo, now you one more reason to visit the same. The Italian major is likely to showcase four beautiful products namely – Ferrari 458 Italia, Ferrari FF, Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano and Ferrari California.
The 458 Italia is the most anticipated the probably the most beautiful Ferrari. It features a very compact and aerodynamic shape along with a number of new technologies. Under the hood the car equips a 4499 CC V8 generating max power of 575 BHP and peak torque of 540 Nm. The same sprints from 0-100 km/h in under 3.4 seconds and has a top speed of 325 km/h.
Fiorano is probably the most sophisticated sports car ever and the reason is the incorporation of the technologies developed for Formula One cars into it along with comfort. The car in fact, has set a benchmark in the supercar world which is very hard to surpass. It equips Ferrari Enzo's 5999 CC V12 engine that develops 620 BHP of max power and 608 Nm of peak torque. The car sprints from 0-100 km/h in 3.7 seconds and has a top speed of 330+ km/h.
The Ferrari FF is an innovation in itself and the only of its kind. It is the most powerful and versatile Ferrari ever built and features an all new four wheel drive system. The car equips a 6262 CC V12 engine powerful enough to develop 660 BHP of max power and 683 Nm of peak torque. The same goes from 0-100 km/h in 3.7 seconds and has a top speed of 335 km/h.
The California made its official debut at 2008 Paris Motor Show and is a modern iteration of the 1957 250 California. Its a car with a track DNA that offers comfort, sportiness with sophistication. It is a convertible car and comes with a retractable hard top. It equips a 4297 CC V8 engine that churns out 460 BHP and 485 Nm. The car touches the 100 kn/h mark in under 4.0 seconds and has a top speed of 310 km/h.


Potassium carbonate (chemical formula: K2CO3), a kind of inorganic compounds, also known as potash. It is colorless crystal or white granular, and has high thermal stability which is heated to 1000? decomposition. Potassium carbonate is easy deliquescence and soluble in water, but cannot be soluble in ether and ethanol. It also has strong moisture absorption, and it is easy to agglomerate when long-term contact with air, easy to absorb carbon dioxide from potassium bicarbonate.


A Raul Jimenez penalty earned Wolverhampton Wanderers a draw on a controversy filled afternoon at The Vitality Stadium.
Referee Roger East was a the centre of the action as three first half decisions went the Cherries way.
Diogo Jota was penalised for a foul on Chris Mepham, disallowing a Jimenez goal. Only moments later East gave the hosts a spot kick after Joshua King theatrically went over Joao Moutinho's leg.
Wolves frustrations boiled over when the referee missed a clear Mepham handball that should have given Nuno's side an opportunity to equalise.
There were two further penalities in the second half. Wolves were given a spot kick when Matt Doherty was fouled by Adam Smith, which Jimenez cooly converted.
Only minutes later Bournemouth were given another penalty for a foul by Ivan Cavaleiro that was outside the box.
King fired wide and the spoils were shared.
Roger East has made few friends in Wolverhampton today after his performance during Wolves' draw with Bournemouth.
The referee made several questionable decisions as Nuno Espirito Santo's side shared the spoils with Bournemouth.
East gave the Cherries two questionable penalties, on top of failing to give Wolves a clear spot kick of their own and disallowed a Raul Jimenez goal.
The hosts first penalty was given after Joshua King appeared to jump over an outstretched leg of Joao Moutinho. The second for an Ivan Cavaleiro tackle that looked outside of the box.
He earned the wrath of Wolves' players when he missed a blatant Chris Mepham handball.
The man in the middle did find time to also give Nuno's men a second half penalty, but that did little to appease the Wolves fans.
Wolves Twitter won't make pleasant reading for Mr East this evening.
Rafa Benitez has admitted that, despite claiming Martin Dubravka was fouled, his Newcastle United goalkeeper could've dealt better with Willy Boly's late equaliser at Molineux two weeks ago.
The Wolves defender challenged the Magpies keeper in the air in the dying minutes of the Premier League fixture the Monday before last with the visitors leading 1-0.
Though those of a Tyneside persuasion were angry by the ruling of the goal, having claimed that Boly fouled Dubravka in the build up.
Despite that, though, Benitez still believes his number one could have handled the situation better.
Watford leapfrogged Wolverhampton Wanderers into seventh position on Friday night after hammering relegation threatened Cardiff City 5-1 in the Welsh capital - and it's laid down a marker for the old gold who head to Bournemouth today.
Gerard Deulofeu netted a hat-trick and Troy Deeney bagged a brace as the Hornets ran riot at the home of the Bluebirds, and the victory bumped them up to 40 points - a single point above Wolves, whose game in hand is today.
West Ham also posted a routine victory over troubled Fulham to keep pace in the race for seventh, but Watford - who like Wolves are in the FA Cup quarter finals - appear the most serious competitors to claim the 'best of the rest' tag.
It was something that Cardiff boss Neil Warnock - whose history with Wolves will well documented - alluded to post-match, when he claimed that Javi Gracia's side hold that tag.


Unfortunately, the retail market has changed quickly and dramatically and there is now no demand from the retail sector to meet the original plan, which was for a large supermarket to take over the sites of the former police headquarters and the Castle Leisure Centre, with the proceeds going towards building a new leisure centre on top of the Q Park in Knowsley Street. However, we are still determined to fulfil the potential of the old police headquarters site, where the building is now nearing demolition.
In 2010, Bury police's headquarters in Irwell Street relocated to a brand new facility at Castlecroft Road, leaving the old site derelict.
Bury Council owns the site and had intended to sell it to a supermarket firm as part of an £8 million project.
That deal fell through in January last year when the supermarket chain suddenly decided to scale back its expansion plans.
Almost a shadow, a shadow of it's former self, the police station in Bury – a concrete gem by Lancashire County Architect Roger Booth, is in the slow process of absenting itself from the material world.
Closed since 2010, on the day of my visit the podium tower, surrounded by rubble, was little more than a playground for the local kids and urbex intruders. A vista of broken windows, distressed prestressed concrete and tortured steel.
Hurry along nothing to see here – soon.
Curvilinear, cantilevered, concrete canopies wave – wave goodbye.
Closed in 2012, it continues to stand idly by, as the Bury Town centre doughnuts the site with shiny new developments.
A striking tower topped by a hyper parabolic roof with a cheeky twist, it remains an elegant feature on The Rock.
Facing an uncertain future it can only be a matter of time, as the new build proliferates that the fire station disappears in a puff of smoke.

In case you hadn't heard, the filing window for FY 2016-2017 has been set: February 3rd to April 29th.
It's a whole new ballgame! Other than the date the ESL was released and the length of the window, everything is unprecedented.
My dream of a compressed PIA review period is coming true.
Just like last year, you can complete and pay for Category 2 purchases before you file the Form 471 for those purchases, since the filing window closes after the April 1 start date for C2 installation.
