Ref Review – Best Friend for Tottenham, whilst Manchester United and Liverpool lose out
Posted on April 21, 2015 in Features
By OffsideLiam.
It's that time of the week to have a rant about the latest batch of refereeing howlers or daft decisions, and highlight the odd right call, from the Premier League's men in the middle . . .
Two bad calls
Ref: Mike Dean
Mike had his ups and downs in this hotly-contested game between Chelsea and Manchester United on Saturday afternoon. One major mistake that Dean missed was the David De Gea handball that was so clear fans in row Z could have acknowledged it. It wouldn't have been a red card as Antonio Valencia was there in support, but, the keeper would have been yellow carded and put Chelsea in a good area to score a free-kick.
However, Radamel Falcao was fouled in the lead up to Eden Hazard scoring the winner. If Dean had pulled that up and awarded the Red Devils a free-kick, you never know how the game could have turned out. Then, in the dying moments of the game with United pressing for a late equaliser, Ander Herrera blatantly dives in the box to try and 'cheat' his team a penalty. On the replay, you can quite clearly see the central midfielder placing his leg in-between Gary Cahill's looking for something. Dean cleverly spots this with the help of his touch judge and produces a yellow card for the Spaniard.
Grade: C. Two disappointing mishaps, but it was the right call on the Herrera incident.
Taylor made mistake
Ref: Anthony Taylor
Although Taylor had a rather solid game refereeing at Manchester City, I felt that he was rather quick to bring out the cards in the game – most notably for Cheikhou Kouyaté in his scuffle with David Silva. After looking at many replays, which in fairness the refs don't have the luxury of, I feel that it is by accident that the West Ham ace's elbow hits David Silva's face.
He looks focused on running dominantly with the ball passed the midfield and into the space, and unfortunately, catches the Spaniard in the face with his elbow – but it looks completely accidental. Taylor does the right thing in stopping the play as it's a head injury and Silva may have been knocked out, but, to award a yellow card to Kouyaté, I felt was harsh.
Grade: B. Not the best decision to card Kouyaté.
Flawless Friend
Ref: Kevin Friend
Friend, like last week, played his part in keeping this game between Newcastle and Tottenham – two teams lacking consistency and form – in an open, free-flowing style of play.
He made the right calls when the cards needed to be brought out and spotted Harry Kane was perfectly onside after scoring a third goal for Spurs. We've seen too many incorrect calls this season when a player is onside and is pinged for being off.
Grade: A. Made every call correctly and kept the game ebullient.
Ref: Michael Oliver
Made a huge error in judgement when Liverpool's Mario Balotelli was called for offside when, in fact, he was quite clearly onside, and went on to score against Aston Villa. With that goal being allowed, the Reds would have found themselves going into extra-time and not exiting the FA Cup.
It's a poor decision, which would have left a sour taste in Liverpool supporters' mouths. Apart from that, ref Oliver directed the game well and rarely stopped play to award a card or two. Good refereeing.
Grade: B. Failed to recognise that Balotelli was onside.

It's a bit harsh to judge referees on offside calls, that's why Assistant Referees are there. If you do include offside decisions, then Friends A rating seems high considering the Newcastle Goal should have been called offside, and an argument could be made for the second Tottenham Goal (although I think it should stand). I thought the De Gea call was tough in real time, we are talking a matter of centimeters (outside of the box where the handball took place) and from the referees view (very straight) it would have been difficult to be sure. Although it was handball, the fact that the goalkeepers legs were inside the box also made this decision a lot harder. Also, Valencia's position made it difficult for the Assistant Referee to help out. I agree that the Koyoute yellow card was strange, I think if it was an accident (which I think it was) then no foul, and if it's deliberate or reckless – straight red.

On behalf of a large coalition of local interests, Crag Law Center recently challenged a major expansion of the Tesoro oil refinery in Anacortes, Washington. Tesoro wants to produce a new fossil fuel-based product—mixed xylenes—that would be manufactured from crude oil and then shipped to Asian markets where it would be turned into plastics or other similar products. The xylenes themselves contain a suite of carcinogenic and toxic chemicals found in crude oil, like toluene and ethylbenzene, and the production process involves large quantities of other toxic chemicals, including sulfolane and aqueous ammonia.
The expansion project would cost $400 million, and Tesoro hopes to produce 15,000 barrels per day of xylene or 230 million gallons per year. To give you a sense of the size of the project, the United States currently exports a total of 15,000 barrels per day of mixed xylenes, mostly from Texas—meaning that this one project could double existing exports of the petrochemical product. All 230 million gallons of the xylenes would be loaded onto marine vessels at Tesoro's aging wharf in Anacortes and then shipped through the busy traffic lanes of the Salish Sea.
Skagit County issued a shoreline development permit to Tesoro because the project requires that new infrastructure be installed on the wharf on state-owned tidal land.
Crag represents a diverse group of local and regional organizations working to protect the San Juans for local people and businesses. Crag filed an appeal of the shoreline permit for Stand.earth, RE Sources for Sustainable Communities, Friends of the San Juans, Evergreen Islands, Friends of the Earth, and the Sierra Club.
Our clients contend that Skagit County cut corners in how it conducted the environmental review for the project, ignoring the significant safety risks posed to local communities in and around the Salish Sea. A major accident involving millions of gallons of xylenes and fuel for the vessels could cut off isolated island communities for days or weeks at a time, interfering with emergency response services and other basic community needs. The project would also be a major emitter of greenhouse gases, with emissions of more than 3 million tons per year involved in production, transportation, and use of mixed xylenes. Despite these risks, Skagit County decided to look only at the very narrow impacts of the discrete equipment installed on the wharf, artificially blinding itself to the broader environmental harms.
In the big picture, this project is just one more way for the oil industry to get its dirty crude oil products to market. The Salish Sea is under attack from a number of fossil fuel projects that will dramatically increase the risk of a major accident in habitat for orca whales, salmon, marine mammals, and seabirds—thereby threatening a vibrant local economy dependent on outdoor recreation and tourism. Crag is proud to represent local communities in their work to protect the natural resources of the Salish Sea and to ensure that they have a meaningful voice in decisions that impact their futures.

Enzo Flores' Dope Sick: an incredible distinction among the large pool of indie short films
Photos by Enzo Flores
The Brasilians NewsPaper
A film Written, Directed, and Produced by Brazilian Filmmaker Enzo Flores is on the Official Selection NewFilmmakers NY and Golden Door International Film Festival.
The story starts when in a present-day Bushwick, a young heroin dealer struggles to keep up with the massive demand, while his sister roams around the neighborhood in a desperate search for her next fix. Though the drug market trade-off provides the safekeeping of their mother, a set of contradictions disentangle their family's bonds.
In the light of the Spanish-language dialect spoken in a few scenes throughout the film, as well as Irving's Puerto Rican flag hung on his bedroom wall, it's safe to assume that the dysfunctional family consists of first- or second-generation immigrants. Considering that the Central American people represent the original residents of Bushwick, which are now sidelined by real estate development and economic growth, their centralized involvement in the narrative serves as a critical showcase of their conflicting identity on an individual and spatial level.
Moreover, corresponding with the prevalent and legitimate issues addressed by the film, it would not be farfetched in the slightest to affirm that Dope Sick is a hybrid work of "fictionalized reality," where in the narrative is bred by and based on the palpable reality of the neighborhood.
At one point, during a pivotal moment, the film cuts to an unabridged shot of a pile of used heroin syringes strewn about the grounds of an abandoned railroad, emphasizing the fact that many users go to that exact location seeking synthetic detachment to rid themselves from the crippling symptoms of dopesickness.
In the grand scheme of things, this moment provides a snapshot of the sprawling public health crisis beset by the opioid epidemic, which has spread to most of every county, city, and neighborhood in America over the last decade, and claimed the lives of over a quarter of a million people regardless of their class status or ethnic group.
When speaking to Dope Sick writer-director Enzo Flores on his primary motivations for tackling the topic of heroin addiction, I noticed his natural inclination to focus on the complexities of the issue on a big picture scale. Highlighting the large involvement of doctors and pharmaceutical companies in generating what is now known as the opioid crisis, the Brazilian filmmaker talked about the challenging process of constructing the narrative around the multifaceted, intricate set of issues. He shared that his intention during the development process was to weave together the mysterious nature of drug dependency, the more extensive array of circumstantial conditions, and the systemic impetus that lead individuals to use drugs in the first place. Based on Enzo's experience of living in Bushwick for several years and navigating that space as a South American immigrant originally from a countryside town, it becomes clear that the filmmaker examines his sense of privilege and belonging through the exploration of the film's characters and conflicts.
Premiering at the historic Anthology Film Archives in Manhattan's Lower East Side and at Loew's Jersey Theater in Jersey City, Dope Sick was selected to appear at domestic and international film festivals, and is now availa-ble to stream for free on the filmmaker's Vimeo channel.

Q: Communication Options : Android client- Java server I am in the process of developing my own java server and android client application..
I have study over the last weeks over the most appropriate communication that my app should have, an http connection (Restful server) or a tcp connection with sockets in which i am more familiar with?
this is what my app and server will exchange through internet

*

*Authentication information (password, username)(encrypted)

*Location information through gps

*Upload/download images

*I dont know if it really matters but notifications will be also needed as well as authentication through facebook and gmail account(if possible).
I am asking not because i want know which is faster but which of them is easier to implement, more reliable and more appropriate to my application's need
thanks!!

A: Use HTTPS with a properly configured server: TLS 1.2 and Perfect Forward Secrecy.
Pin the server certificate in the client.
It is best to sent the user credentials as a POST, Get parameters often end up in server logs.
Point 1: The HTTPS connection will encrypt the data in transit, there is no need for additional encryption.

European Customers Now Running Fuso eCanter Electric Trucks
December 14, 2017 • by Staff
Photo: Daimler Trucks
Daimler Trucks has begun delivering its Fuso eCanter, which it calls the first all-electric truck in regular production, to fleet customers in Europe, the company announced. The OEM said drivers will be specially trained to operate the electric trucks and each customer is obtaining their vehicles via a 24 month long-term rental from Mercedes-Benz CharterWay, a captive rental and leasing firm.
The first to receive the Class 4 trucks on the continent are global logistics firms Deutsche Post DHL, DB Schenker, Rhenus, and Dachser. However, Daimler noted these firms will be running the eCanters in diverse applications. For example, the six trucks for DHL will be used in two distinct operations. Two eCanters will provide inner-city deliveries of heavy cargo for DHL Freight's Berlin branch while DHL Paket will use four trucks to deliver goods to businesses. For this role, the eCanters will replace trucks powered conventional drivetrains. Similarly, DB Schenker will run use its trucks to collect and deliver general cargo in the inner city of Berlin.
By contrast, Rhenus Group will deploy three eCanters to deliver furniture, consumer electronics, and home appliances from a central warehouse to residents of Berlin's inner city while Dascher will use two electric trucks to collect goods and to complete last-mile deliveries.
The OEM stated that "after years of thorough development and testing," the eCanter is now fully integrated in the conventional Fuso Canter production line. Production of the electric model began back in July in Tramagal, Portugal. All eCanters for the European and U.S. markets will be produced there.
Daimler added that, over the next few years, its Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation subsidiary plans to deliver 500 eCanters of this first production generation to select customers, with large-scale production slated to start in 2019. UPS announced in September that it will be putting three of the medium-duty electric trucks in service in North America for evaluation. And in Japan, convenience-store chain 7-Eleven and Yamato Transport each have committed to operate 25 eCanters.
The eCanter has a range of approximately 62 miles and a load capacity of two to three tons, depending on body and duty cycle, according to Daimler. Its electric powertrain uses six high-voltage lithium-ion battery packs, with 420 volts and 13.8 kWh each, and a permanent-magnet-engine that can produce 180 hp via a single-gear transmission in the rear axle. Daimler said its continuous output allows the truck "to accelerate almost like a passenger car and that's available from the first second of driving."
According to Marc Llistosella, CEO of Daimler Trucks Asia, the eCanter is the OEM's answer to the need for a zero-emission, zero-noise truck designed for inner-city distribution. He added that "over 90,000 kilometers of testing in everyday operating conditions [makes us] secure that we are handing over a reliable and economical vehicle to our customers. With the eCanter, our customers now operate not only quietly and without locally emitted carbon-dioxide, they also save money on operating costs. This is the future of urban distribution transport."

Q: Vaultwarden on Nginx can be accessed via IP address, but not domain name I'm pretty new to hosting in any capacity, but I had a spare raspberry pi laying around and figured I'd try running my own Bitwarden setup with nginx. I am able to access the Bitwarden page with my ip address, so I know for a fact it's at least working. However, I can't access the web page with the domain I own. I currently own the domain willjp.dev and have a an A Record pointing willjp.dev to my IP address.
This is my sites-enabled/default file:
server {
  listen 80;
  listen [::]:80;
  server_name willjp.dev; #domain name
  return 301 https://www.willjp.dev$request_uri;

}

server {
  listen 443 ssl http2;
  server_name willjp.dev; #domain name

  ssl_certificate      /etc/nginx/ssl/willjp.dev.crt;
  ssl_certificate_key  /etc/nginx/ssl/willjp.dev.key;

  client_max_body_size 128M;  # Allow large attachments

    }

    location /notifications/hub/negotiate {
      proxy_pass http://0.0.0.0:8080;
    }
}

It is port forwarded, I have a static IP address, and I disabled gzip. These are all solutions I have tried from lurking forums.
If anyone could help me with this, I would be eternally grateful!

A: That IP probably won't work, as 0.0.0.0 shouldn't be routable. If you are trying to hit another process listening on a different local port, then you'll need to reference localhost or the loopback interface--which is normally 127.0.0.1.

The ECW Arena Update, Evan Bourne's Injury, & More News
Partial Source: Pwinsider
— The former ECW arena has been stripped down to its outside walls. All of the old stages, balconies, etc. have been destroyed and taken out. Construction for the building's new configuration is underway, and when complete, the building will be turned into a concert hall that will hold close to 3,000 fans. As for the future of wrestling in the building, the feeling was when EVOLVE and CZW ran their last event there that the rent of the re-designed facility would be too high for independent promotions to run the building and actually make a profit.
— There are no pro wrestling shows listed for ESPN Classic this week. At this time, there's no word yet on when the classic AWA or UWF shows will return to the network.
— Evan Bourne posted the following on Twitter, regarding his recovery…
"I wish I was on the #RAW European tour. It's grueling but #WWE superstars live and breathe for these semi-annual extravaganzas. #jealous"
"My foot should* be healed by November! I would love love love to be on #RAW or #SMACKDOWN international tours. #ineedfrequentflyermiles"
"To clarify: I have no clue when I'll be 100% healed. I follow up with the doc in a few weeks and I may have a better idea then. #endofsummer"

Rhode Island is the smallest state in the country, but in terms of industry, Rhode Island makes a big splash. Several Fortune 500 and Fortune 1000 companies call the Ocean State home. The diverse economy includes contributions from many different industries, including agriculture, manufacturing, health services, and tourism.
When it comes to motor vehicle transportation, unfortunately Rhode Island's size does not mean it is safer in terms of traffic crashes. Although trucking accidents occur seldom in the Ocean State, every year senseless accidents cause serious injury and death for Rhode Island residents. If trucking companies and their employees follow the safety rules prescribed by the law, catastrophic accidents and fatal injuries could be avoided every day.
When the unthinkable happens, you need an attorney who is ready to serve your best interests. Thomas J. Henry will take immediate action on your case and work to ensure crucial evidence is preserved.

WHAT TRUCKING REGULATIONS EXIST TO KEEP RHODE ISLAND DRIVERS SAFE?
Rhode Island CDL holders must be 18 years of age or older to operate within the state.
Truck drivers are also required to abide by the hours of service regulations. These regulations are important in keeping drivers and other motorists safe. Drowsy driving is one of the most common causes of trucking accidents in the United States. A study conducted by the AAA Foundation revealed that driving on only four or five hours of sleep increased the risk of a crash as much as driving with a blood alcohol content between .12 and .15.
For decades, Thomas J. Henry has helped trucking accident victims throughout the country stand up against large trucking companies and obtain record-breaking verdicts and settlements. Thomas J. Henry has the experience, the knowledge, and the resources you need to win your case. If you were injured in a trucking accident in Rhode Island, contact Thomas J. Henry.

Deadbeat Representative Eric Cantor ~ Financed By Rothschild's Deep State BOE
"Republicans, on the contrary, are for both the man and the dollar; but in cases of conflict, the man before the dollar."
— President Abraham Lincoln
ERIC CANTOR EMPLOYEE OF ROTHSCHILD
Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.) is one of the very few members of Congress who has some of the richest, vile, and most seditious people in the WORLD who bankrolled his political career into The U.S. political system. That—along with Cantor's peculiar fund-raising prowess—is another reason why many now perceive the House Republican majority leader as the real "big man" in the House GOP caucus, eclipsing John Boehner.
Wags say that Cantor will be "the Cantor of the House"—which is a play on Cantor's Khazar family name. A "cantor" is the individual in a synagogue who leads the chants and prayers along with the rabbi—a major religious role.
So the fact that billionaires in the global financial NWO — all intimately tied to the London-based Rothschild family—are underwriting Cantor's career, is a point that cannot be taken lightly.
The up-and-coming young congressman—a Rothschild Zionist devoted to controversial rabbinic teachings to the Jewish faith—is unique among House members: While most members rely on campaign contributions mainly from Americans, Cantor has an unusually expansive array of contributions pouring in from Rothschild.
Mafia is zionism. Zionists are the script writers of the NWO scheme with their headquarters based within The City Of London while The British Monarchy poses as its head piece for attempting centralization of all the world finances.
Eternal Vigilance
One of Cantor's federal election filings, recorded at campaignmoney.com, shows he received 146 contributions from New York donors. Contrast that to only 36 donations from New York that went to Cantor's ostensible senior partner in the Republican takeover of the House, Boehner, who has been a top-ranking GOP congressional figure for more than a few years. Yet, even Boehner cannot rival Cantor in the number of out-of-state or country cash contributions.
A brief sampling of Cantor's contributors from New York State alone demonstrate the real clout—and the big names—who are bankrolling him:
Rothschild's Handbook For Banker's World Control: Elders Of Zion
All Below Are Rothschild Zionists:
Kenneth Bialkin, a mob legal mouthpiece, former national chairman of the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith, former chairman of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, and now chairman of the America-Israel Friendship League, s a Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) member. The CFR is the New York-based offshoot of the London-based Royal Institute for International Affairs, the Rothschild empire's foreign policy arm;
Gary Cohn, president and chief operating officer of Goldman Sachs, the infamous Wall Street investment bank whose financial schemes are well known to many Americans who've seen their pensions plundered;
Steven Drucker of Charmer Sunbelt, a massive liquor conglomerate that has grabbed control of various facets of the U.S. spirits industry;
Lewis M. Eisenberg who, as a former Goldman Sachs partner, is perhaps best known for serving as chairman from 1995 to the pivotal year of 2001 of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey—at which time the authority turned World Trade Center (WTC) ownership over to international wheeler-dealer, Larry Silverstein, who had the WTC twin towers well insured and suspiciously made billions from the 9-11 attacks.
Henry Kravis, a member of the CFR and Bilderberg group who was one of the famous "junk bond kings" of the 1980s through his Kohlberg-Kravis-Roberts partnership;
Ronald Perelman, billionaire head of the Revlon cosmetics empire. He also heads a far-reaching network of radio and television stations. At one point he was said to have been the richest man in America;
James Tisch, another CFR member and a scion of the billionaire Tisch family who bought control of CBS in the 1980s.
These are just a few of the powerful New Yorkers who've been channeling funds to Cantor's political enterprises. Three of Cantor's other notable national contributors are:
Jeffrey Epstein of California, chief financial officer and executive vice president of the Oracle Corporation, the fiefdom of Larry Ellison, who rose to fame in the 1970s working on a database for the CIA (named "Oracle"). After 9-11, Ellison offered to donate software to the U.S. government to help set up a national identification database, from which national ID cards for American citizens would be issued;
Neil Livingstone of Washington, D.C., a shadowy figure from the world of intelligence known for close ties to Israel's Mossad;
Sheldon Adelson of Las Vegas, who, in many respects, is the modern-day incarnation of the late Meyer Lansky, longtime chief of the Jewish crime syndicate which cemented its influence with the rise of legalized gambling in Vegas.
It is likewise no coincidence that the American-based political action committee of the Union Bank of Switzerland— perhaps the biggest name in Swiss banking—has also been a munificent contributor to Cantor's political war chest.Cantor's particular influence stems from his control—along with another pro-Israeli hardliner, former Sen. Norm Coleman (R-Minn.)—of a secretive and well-funded political action committee, the American Action Network (AAN), run by Cantor's close advisor and former chief of staff, Rob Collins.Cantor's AAN operation generated up to $25 million in 2010 and spent at least $16 million on behalf of Cantor-and Wall Street-approved GOP candidates. Through AAN, Cantor played a central role in orchestrating the GOP takeover of the House of Representatives in 2010, bankrolled by well-heeled contributors whose names are not required to be revealed to the Federal Election Commission.It is no coincidence that two other similar fundraising ventures, American Crossroads and Crossroads GPS— both run by former George W. Bush operative Karl Rove—share offices with Cantor's AAN.In short, the Washington political arena—as perhaps it has never been before—is now a fiefdom of a certain brand of mob, and the rise to power of one of its most energetic voices, Cantor, makes it evermore so.

The Power Of The Rothschild State: The Hijacked Name Of Jew By The Khazar Banking Cartel.
Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.) told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday during a meeting in New York that the new GOP majority in the House will "serve as a check" on the Obama administration, a statement unusual for its blunt disagreement with U.S. policy delivered directly to a foreign leader.
"Eric stressed that the new Republican majority will serve as a check on the Administration and what has been, up until this point, one party rule in Washington," read a statement from Cantor's office on the one-on-one meeting. "He made clear that the Republican majority understands the special relationship between Israel and the United States, and that the security of each nation is reliant upon the other."
There are growing signs that Eric Cantor's act in this meeting with Netanyahu may be a violation of the "Logan Act" which makes it a felony for any American 'without authority of the United States' to communicate with a foreign government, to influence that government's behavior on any disputes with the United States.
One of the reasons this is clear, is because Cantor himself accused Nancy Pelosi of violating the Logan Act for having met with the head of Syria. Imagine if Rep. Pelosi had told Syria to ignore Obama. Imagine if John Kerry had gone to France and told them they were doing the right thing to ignore Obama.

Skinner (1953) stated that the effects of generalized conditioned reinforcers should maintain longer than specific conditioned reinforcers because their effects are not dependent on a particular motivating operation. Tokens easily model different levels of generality because tokens can be paired with one or more back-up reinforcers. In the current study, three types of tokens were assessed that could be exchanged for either salty snacks, food and drinks offered in a small marketplace, or money on a gift card. Token preferences were assessed using a Paired Stimulus preference assessment and a progressive ratio (PR) task. The results of the preference assessment and PR task support that as generality increases, the relative reinforcing value of different types of tokens also increases. The results demonstrate concordance between Paired Stimulus preference assessment and PR tasks in assessing value. Finally, the results support the use of a graded approach to assessing the value of token reinforcers.

Q: Attach an image to a contact I am having exactly the same problem as described here.
I am trying to use this Intent:
android.provider.ContactsContract.Intents.ATTACH_IMAGE
Starts an Activity that lets the user pick a contact to attach an image to.
Sounds suitable to me but unfortunately results in an ActivityNotFoundException.
Code:
import android.provider.ContactsContract;
...
try {
    Intent myIntent = new Intent();
    myIntent.setAction(ContactsContract.Intents.ATTACH_IMAGE);
    myIntent.setData(imageUri);
    startActivity(myIntent);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
    Log.e("ImageContact",
            "Firing Intent to set image as contact failed.", anfe);
    showToast(this, "Firing Intent to set image as contact failed.");
}

I cannot find any error in the code above. The imageUri is correct for following code is working perfectly:
Code:
try {
    Intent myIntent = new Intent();
    myIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_ATTACH_DATA);
    myIntent.setData(imageUri);
    startActivity(myIntent);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
    Log.e("ImageContact",
            "Firing Intent to set image as contact failed.", anfe);
    showToast(this, "Firing Intent to set image as contact failed.");
}

As mentioned in the link this results in a another menu before getting to the contacts. That is acceptable but not perfect.

A: If you already know the file path you can use:
values.put(Images.Media.DISPLAY_NAME, fileName);
values.put(Images.Media.DATE_ADDED, currentTime);
values.put(Images.Media.MIME_TYPE, "image/jpeg");
values.put(Images.Media.ORIENTATION, 0);
values.put(Images.Media.DATA, filePath);
values.put(Images.Media.SIZE, size);

getContentResolver().insert(Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, values);

This way no nead to open a bitmap stream if you already have the file.

A: I'm having this problem too. I've had a little more success using by setting the Uri using the following code taken from http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/content-providers.html
However, after selecting a contact and cropping the image the new contact icon still is not set?
// Save the name and description of an image in a ContentValues map.
ContentValues values = new ContentValues(3);
values.put(Media.DISPLAY_NAME, "road_trip_1");
values.put(Media.DESCRIPTION, "Day 1, trip to Los Angeles");
values.put(Media.MIME_TYPE, "image/jpeg");

// Add a new record without the bitmap, but with the values just set.
// insert() returns the URI of the new record.
Uri uri = getContentResolver().insert(Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, values);

// Now get a handle to the file for that record, and save the data into it.
// Here, sourceBitmap is a Bitmap object representing the file to save to the database.
try {
    OutputStream outStream = getContentResolver().openOutputStream(uri);
    sourceBitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 50, outStream);
    outStream.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
    Log.e(TAG, "exception while writing image", e);
}

I can't believe I haven't shared this Vegetable Fried Rice recipe yet. Amma makes the best vegetable fried rice. In fact, in my opinion, she makes the best Indo-Chinese food. She cooks it effortlessly and fried rice is often made when she's lazy or doesn't want to cook anything elaborate. The good thing about her vegetable fried rice is that it has all the vegetables and lots of flavour so you don't really need a side dish for it. We usually have it with a light salad or an onion-tomato raita. So let's check out how to make Vegetable Fried Rice using her recipe.
Oh wait, before I get into the recipe, an important thing. I waited to go back and share amma's exact recipe with you because there's an essential ingredient that makes it truly like restaurant-style Vegetable Fried Rice. The flavour and aroma is unmatchable and you have to use this if you want your fried rice to shine. Ok, I'll tell you already. It's celery! Spring onions are important too but the most important ingredient to give flavour to fried rice is ***drumrolls*** celery.
In Singapore we gets two kinds of celery – one is the Chinese celery which is leaner and smaller and the other is the American celery which has thick stalks, usually used to snack on or make smoothies with. In India I have mostly seen the Chinese celery since that's what we use to make vegetable fried rice but if you live in a place where you get both, choose the smaller kind for the best flavour.
Generally, one-day-old rice works best for making fried rice since the grains are drier and stay separate, easy for you to toss with the vegetables and sauces. However, here's how to make rice for fried rice so you don't have to use old rice, necessarily.
2. Add the finely chopped vegetables and celery and mix well. Cook for 2-3 mins until they wilt just a bit. Then add the soya sauce, tomato sauce, and green chilli sauce. Fry on high heat until the sauces bubble and reduce flame to medium-high, stirring constantly. Continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 mins. The vegetables should be cooked yet crunchy and not mushy or soft.
3. Add the cooked rice and stir well to combine. Switch off flame, check for salt and add more if required. Finally add the pepper powder and spring onions (we used coriander leaves that day since we couldn't find spring onions in the market). Stir well and pat down and keep partially covered for the flavours to combine.
That's it. Delicious Indo-Chinese Vegetable Fried Rice is ready.
– If you want to make Egg Fried Rice, add 2-3 scrambled eggs to this rice towards the end and you have easy Egg Fried Rice ready!
I love all sorts of fried rice and I made this for my friends yesterday and they all loved it very much!
I have never tries cooking with Chinese celery and the irony is I always shop in a Chinese store for fresh produce. I will take a look tomorrow when I go shopping. Thanks for a beautiful recipe!
Is celery same as our coriander leaves ( Kotthamalli )?
no celery and coriander leaves are not the same. i have included a picture of celery above, take a look.
aaah celery! I really didn't think so. Love how fluffy the fried rice look!
We make a similar fried rice and your's looks amazing! That's delicious for sure!
hello lavanya. i have mentioned the number of onions in the ingredients list. you need 2 onions for 4 cups rice. that's my estimate anyway, it's really up to you.
that is a wonderful appealing meal….
Thanks for all the useful tips Nags. The Fried Rice definitey looks really colorful and bet it is delicious too!
Great & gorgeous looking fried rice..

Q: Way to pass a command to Matlab from tcsh? I'm looking to call a Matlab script in my tcsh script and pass it a programmatically-generated function call (like functionName(varName)). Is there a way to call Matlab (or any other scripting language) and pass a command to it?
So far what isn't working is:
matlab && echo 'plotify($varName)' && echo 'exit'

That just starts Matlab and echos after I exit Matlab

A: matlab has, I believe, a -r command line option that takes a statement to execute.
You should therefore be able to do
matlab -r "plotify($varName)"

This assumes that MatLab actually knows what plotify() is and that you are giving it reasonable data in the shell variable $varName.
Note: It was 20 years since I did anything useful in MatLab. Also, I'm not a tcsh user.

Your command,
matlab && echo 'plotify($varName)' && echo 'exit'

would start matlab, wait for it to terminate, and if it terminated without an error, it would execute the two echo statements.
