Q: How to omit some values in an array I have a vector vec-it's length is 1774. And I need to make a vector n of length 10 which will contain 10 numbers of vec with similar step like:
n=[0, 178, 356, 534, 712, 890, 1068, 1246, 1424, 1602]

First and last numbers do not have to be same as in vec. My try:
# -*- coding: cp1250 -*-
from __future__ import division

newLength=10
vec=range(1774)

step=round(len(vec)/newLength);

n=range(0,len(vec),int(step))

print n
print len(n)

But it results into the vector of length 11. When I set newLength=22 then I get exactly 22. So it is problem of rounding (I also tried math.ceil and math.floor-it works for newLength=10 but not for newLength=554). Is there any other way how to get vector n?
Thanks

A: Think about this:

*

*You have 1774 apples.

*You want to split the apples into 554 equally sized groups.

*The group size must be 1774/554 = 3.261.

*You round the group size down and get 3.

*You get 1774//3 = 591 groups.

*You see this is wrong.

*You decide to round up instead and get 4.

*You get 1774//4 = 443 groups.

*You see this is wrong as well.

*You realise that you must be able to have .261 of an apple.

*You write code to facilitate this.

*You decide to have a party because you now have 1774//3.261 = 544 groups!

The code:
new_length = 554
vector = # some list
step = len(vector)/new_length
n = (i*step for i in range(new_length))
new_vector = [vector[int(round(i))] for i in n]

A: Ok, here is the solution. Thx to the  jonrsharpe
from math import ceil

def takespread(sequence, num):
    length = float(len(sequence))
    for i in range(num):
        yield sequence[int(ceil(i * length / num))]

if __name__=="__main__":
    newLength=55
    vec=range(1774)

    print len(list(takespread(vec, newLength)))

Something Sinister This Way Comes . . . VICTIM by Catherine Astolfo #Free #amazon #amreading #mystery #murder

WHAT IT'S ABOUT:
Ancient evil comes in many forms…
School principal Emily Taylor is caught up in the inexplicable disappearances of two well-known women and the violence linked to a disputed land claim.
When the legendary Walking Bear appears, she must also deal with the resurrection of an ancient legend and the terrified and unnerved villagers of the sleepy town of Burchill.
Once again, Emily is drawn into the unknown and must battle her own secret demons and fears. Only then can she unravel these mysteries—before there is more bloodshed.
Phyllis Smallman Author of the Sherri Travis Mysteries: "With a clash of cultures, greed, and secrets, Victim will keep you out of the woods for a long time to come."
Donna Carrick, author of The First Excellence: "A disappearance…a Native legend…a murder…a terrific read!"
Don Graves, The Hamilton Spectator: "A deftly conceived, multilayered story told with a compassionate voice…The plot leads you to a conclusion with skillfully planted clues, employs a sense of the setting so real that the reader feels a part of the place and uses dialogue that reveals the minds and souls of the characters in it. Victim will linger in your mind long after you've closed the book…a gifted piece of writing."
Rosemary Aubert, author of the Ellis Portal mystery series: "VICTIM, by Catherine Astolfo, is an enjoyable, engaging read—a fine book full of suspense with lively, and intriguing characters. This is good, strong, clear writing that keeps the reader waiting for more. Along with a complex mystery, there's even a few sensual love scenes and a darling dog! Best of all—the mystery at the heart of this story seamlessly combines Aboriginal myths and legends with a precise rendering of small-town Canadian manners and mores. VICTIM is original, sensitive and satisfying."

In 2018, rookie detective, Kate Garrett lives in the shadow of her near-legendary father Joe. When Joe dies unexpectedly, he leaves Kate half interest in Garrett Investigations, his last case that ties to three murders, a partner she can't stand, and a legacy to live up to.
Jake Carmedy has lost a partner, mentor and friend, but grief will come later. First, he has a case to solve, one that has detoured from a simple insurance case to a murder investigation. If that isn't enough, Joe's daughter seems to want to take her father's place as his boss.
Each one is working on a different part of the puzzle. No matter how hard they try, Carmedy and Garrett can't avoid each other…and they might be next on a killer's list.
SNEAK PEEK:
Mercy waited by Kate's desk. Except for a little mud spattered on her boots, her black hair, lace t-shirt and leather pants were immaculate. The effect was only slightly spoiled by the fact Mercy looked nervous.
"Thorsen wants to see you," she said quietly.
"What did I do this time?"
Mercy pursed her lips and nodded toward the docking port. "Take everything. I'll generate the reports. I'll be around if you want to talk."
Brow furrowed, Kate disengaged her eCom from the port and picked up her mug. It was probably not a good idea to walk in to see the Chief of Detectives with a cup of coffee in hand, but the brew had just reached the perfect temperature for drinking. She compromised by taking an extra minute to gulp down half the cup, then poured the remainder in the sink. Wiping a dribble of coffee off her chin she paused outside the only enclosed office in the suite, took a deep breath, and then knocked.
The chief opened the door and ushered Kate in. This didn't bode well. His usual response was bellowing, "Come in."
Usually, Kate felt like a shrimp in the presence of her boss. She'd made the minimum height requirement to join the police force and there was nothing wispy or fragile about her. But Chief Igor Thorsen was a giant of a man, a Viking warrior with long red-blonde hair, a full beard and the hint of a Nordic accent. Most would say Igor Thorsen was a behemoth. 'Large as life and twice as ugly,' her father joked. Except right now, he seemed deflated.
"What's wrong, Chief?"
"Kathleen…it's your father."
And then Kate knew. The knowledge closed in on her, shutting down her ability to react, to speak, to take a breath. It wasn't just the Chief who had shrunk. The whole world had suddenly grown smaller.

It was no longer raining. It made no difference. Detective Kate Garrett was already soaked and mud oozed over her shoes as she picked through the bushes in the overgrown industrial lot, looking for evidence of illegal drugs.
"Ah, the romantic life of a police detective," Kate said, echoing one of her father's favourite sayings. A wet branch slapped her in the face and reminded her that a girl's life hung on the work she was doing.
Meanwhile, the instigators of this search were wrapped in blankets, each waiting in the back of separate squad cars. She hoped they were in their own private hells, worrying about what was going to happen next. Perhaps the prospect of imprisonment chilled them as much as the grey November afternoon chilled her.
She doubted it. They were probably pissed off they'd been caught.

Wildflowers have to be strong and resilient to bloom amid the rugged beauty of Wyoming – and so do the women.
Before the bestselling and award-winning Wyoming Wildflowers series, there was another love story, one that laid the foundation for all those that came after.
Ed Currick's and Donna Roberts' worlds couldn't have been any more different – a rancher from Wyoming and an up-and-coming Broadway musical actress on a national tour. What could have been a momentary encounter sparks desire . . . and more. But can there be anything but heartbreak ahead when they have only days before their dreams pull them apart.

Then I changed genres from my beloved romances and wrote, under the pen name of D. M. Woods, my first suspense/thriller: Death Crosses The Finish Line. The second book in this 'death' series, Death Is A Habit, came out January 8, 2014. I am currently working on the third book in the 'death' series, Death Walks C Dock. I am also working on another Western Historical Romance, Montana Man. It features the characters readers came to know and love in Montana Star.

Some secrets can come back to haunt you . . .
School principal Emily Taylor feels safe in the friendly little town of Burchill—until she finds a body in her school. The murder of caretaker Nathaniel Ryeburn brings back memories she'd rather forget and plunges Emily into a mystery that involves a secret diary, an illegal puppy mill and a murderer cleverly disguised as an ordinary citizen.
As fear rips through the traumatized town, Emily's investigation inadvertently leads the police to her door, and to her husband Langford, who is hiding a secret of his own. It becomes clear to Emily that many of Burchill's residents are merely wearing masks. And it's time for those masks to be ripped away . . . and for a killer's identity to be revealed.

As a child, instead of taking away tv or other privileges, my mother used to take away my library card because she thought it would teach me to behave. What it actually taught me was to check out the maximum number of books allowed at one time so that I would still have books around the next time I misbehaved.
In addition to reading, I like sewing, gardening, all things related to food, and I am active in environmental and social justice causes. I am Puerto Rican by birth (well, my parents' really) and Jewish by choice, and that has made for some interesting life experiences. I have been happily married for 15 years and we are childfree. Someone once described me as an onion-as in with many layers-and I'm hoping to live up to that.
I've been in fandom for about 15 years, but only discoverd LJ a couple of years ago after a WisCon-related bit of fail, and am transitioning to DW after unacceptable shenanigans on LJ's part. I am always learning from and growing because of my online community, and for that I thank you.
I need to emphasize that learning is not always fun or easy, and if you see something here that you disagree with, it's ok to discuss it. Debate is good for growth as it makes you think. Keep in mind, debate =/= fight. It is not ok to behave badly in my space. Actions are fair game, people are not. And NO generalizations/stereotypes! Behave badly and you will be banned.
If you add me to your circle, please send me a message so I know who you are, and I might even add you to my circle!

This is the official website of the International Quality of Life Assessment (IQOLA) Project. The IQOLA Project was established in 1991 to translate and validate the SF-36 Health Survey and other measures of patient-reported outcomes for international use. Initially, the IQOLA group included researchers from Australia, Canada, Europe, Japan, and the United States, who built on lessons from cross-cultural psychology and other health survey projects to develop protocols for translating, validating, and norming health status questionnaires. Papers describing IQOLA methods and their application to the SF-36 were published in 1998 in a 320-page issue of the Journal of Clinical Epidemiology that contained work from 15 countries. International interest in the SF-36 has continued to grow, and SF-36 translations have been developed for more than 60 countries spanning six continents and have been the subject of more than 800 publications.
This Web site is designed to provide country-specific information about the SF translations: how they were developed, what is known about their psychometric properties, what has been published about them, and how to obtain them. In addition, general information about the IQOLA Project and the SF Health Surveys is presented, along with links to conferences and organizations in the health status field and to other websites of interest. We hope that this site will facilitate the scholarly exchange of information about the SF Health Surveys, and health status assessment in general, within and across countries.
Historically, health has been compared across countries using measures of mortality and morbidity. While vital to monitor, these statistics focus on illness and thus only capture part of the human health experience. During the past two decades, information from individuals about the impact of disease and its treatment on their functioning and well-being has become increasingly important in monitoring health and evaluating health services around the world. Widespread collection of this health status data has been made possible by the development of short, practical questionnaires that are reliable and valid, such as the SF-36® Health Survey and companion short-form (SF) questionnaires.

Wait, Could Plasma Thrusters Really Replace Jet Engines?
Scientists just demonstrated a promising prototype—with a catch.
By Caroline Delbert
AIP Advances
A new plasma thruster could scale up to compete with traditional jet engines.
The plasma is magnified by high-intensity microwaves and pressurized air.
Researchers had to invent a way to measure the 1,000-degree-plus plasma instrument.
Chinese scientists suggest they're bringing space plasma thrusters down to Earth, with a new kind that performs as well in the atmosphere as others do in the vacuum of space.
Using just air and electricity, researchers from the Institute of Technical Sciences at Wuhan University say they've overcome longtime atmospheric issues like air friction and made a plasma thruster that can compete on the ground.
In a new paper in American Institute of Physics Advances, the scientists describe how they built and tested their plasma thruster.
"We demonstrated that, given the same power consumption, its propulsion pressure is comparable to that of conventional airplane jet engines using fossil fuels," they say, which is an extraordinary claim.

The plasma thrusters used in space are specially suited to the zero-G and very thin or nonexistent air. "Even though such a plasma engine has a very small propulsion force, after months and years of constant acceleration, the spacecraft can ultimately reach a high speed," the researchers explain. So in the absence of friction in space, a tiny amount of power can increase in a linear way without limits, like a snowball rolling downhill that can eventually crush a house.
The plasma thruster design.
Bringing plasma thrust into the atmosphere means contending with strict design limitations. The researchers cite an MIT development of an interim "Tesla type" plasma thruster that's more powerful than ones for space, but not quite enough for typical aircraft. Instead, these researchers have supercharged the thrust using high temperatures and the application of powerful microwaves.
The homemade heat-resistant device used to measure propulsion pressure in the experiment. The device has a small hole at the top for inserting smaller steel beads in order to adjust the threshold weight, at which the ball starts to rattle due to the effect of the plasma jet.
"In this report, we consider a microwave air plasma jet thruster using high-temperature and high-pressure plasma generated by a 2.45 GHz microwave ionization chamber for injected pressurized air," the researchers say. A microwave oscillator called a gravitron sends microwaves down a tube that terminates with an igniter that heats the plasma. The tube intensifies the microwaves and the resulting plasma is held in a cohesive shape by the flow of fresh air.
The small laboratory model scales up, the scientists say, to the equivalent of a commercial jet engine—enough to theoretically compete with the fossil fuel technologies we use today. From the study:
"[U]sing a high-power microwave source or an array of multiple microwave sources in parallel operation, with materials resistant to high temperature and pressure, it is possible to construct a high-performance microwave air plasma jet thruster in the future to avoid carbon emissions and global warming that arise due to fossil fuel combustion."
All this sounds amazing, right? So what's the catch?
Well, the super hot plasma is so hot that it might melt anything that could contain it. In order to scale up a small laboratory model into a full-size electric plasma thruster, future researchers will need to run tests on materials and construction as well as the best ways to combine everything into the most powerful thrusters. To even test the thrust, the scientists had to make a new heat-resistant measuring setup using quartz and steel.
So while this may be a milestone step, the realization of its white-hot potential is likely a decade or more away.

I attended the Women's March in Kings Beach on January 21. I became overwhelmed with emotion as I looked into the crowd, nearly 800 people from my community, ‹mostly women, but men, children and families, too.
We gathered together for the same purpose, to promote peace, unity, solidarity, resistance, women's rights and human rights. To celebrate diversity.
We marched together to enthusiastic and supportive honks and cheers from passing motorists. "Love, not Hate, makes America great," we chanted. "When they go low, we go high," we called out. "No hate, no fear, immigrants are welcome here," we shouted.
My friend, Kimberly, ran into the local market to purchase a sandwich. The young man behind her in line exclaimed, "Please, let me buy you lunch, I'm so inspired by what you people are doing!" mA stranger reaching out.
One of my greatest heroes is my grandmother. Born in Puerto Rico in 1883, she became a revered curandera, a healer who used the remedies of herbs and the laying on of hands. She treated everyone in her small village with respect and delivered babies with the midwife when the women had no other health care.
I believe my Abuela Chepa, who lived to nearly 100 years old, was with me in some capacity on this day of all days, proudly cheering me on.

Allotment style Food grower from Cobh, Co Cork wins '2020 Energia Get Ireland Growing' grand prize
By Tom Collins
tom@TheCork.ie
Pictured is Louise O' Connor, who runs a not-forprofit 'Patch Na bPáistí in County Cork, has emerged from thousands of participants across Ireland to win the 2020 Get Ireland Growing grand prize worth €5,000 from Energia and GIY.
The preschool professional believes in the outdoor classroom, so she transformed her garden into a communal allotment several years ago. She calls it "Patch na bPaisti" (the Children's Patch – of ground) and it is a popular weekend activity for many young children.
Cobh based Louise O'Connor has emerged from thousands of participants across Ireland to win the 2020 Get Ireland Growing grand prize worth €5,000 from Energia and GIY.
Louise encourages and teaches children how to grow vegetables, fruit, trees, flowers and seed saving at a weekly Saturday morning workshop which she has been running for the last two years. During lockdown Louise put her efforts towards 'Gardening Care Packs' working with her community to grow and deliver veg packs to those who were cocooning.
The prize fund and equipment, including a brand new polytunnel from The Polytunnel Company, will now help Louise to create a community garden at her home in a Cobh estate and help to undo the recent damage that her garden suffered during Storm Ellen.
She says with this backing from Energia Get Ireland Growing she has her eyes set on bigger and better things ahead, "We do most of our work from my home garden and the surrounding wooded area by our estate. We started off small but it keeps on growing and I truly do see a great future here with more and more people getting involved. This prize is an amazing chance to do more and a promise to a better 2021 for my community."
Louise was presented with her prize this week including her brand new polytunnel. GIY Director and Co-Presenter of RTE's GROW COOK EAT Karen O'Donohoe was present for the handover of the prize: "We had an incredible range of entries for this prize, but Louise's story stood out for the entrepreneurial spirit of everything she's doing. To see someone turning their home into a hub for community food growing is truly inspirational, and we're delighted to be able to help her realise more of her vision."
Energia's Sponsorship Manager, Amy O'Shaughnessy, reflected on the impact of the campaign this year, which kicked off in May and has distributed €60,000 worth of food growing resources since then.
"The response to this year's campaign has been phenomenal. We've seen tens of thousands of people participating across all 32 counties, which shows that Irish people are increasingly taking steps towards a more sustainable lifestyle. At Energia, we're committed to helping make this happen, by supplying Irish homes and businesses with 100% green energy and smart technologies as well as through our Energia Get Ireland Growing initiative.."
Pictured is Louise O' Connor, who runs a not-forprofit 'Patch Na bPáistí in County Cork, has emerged from thousands of participants across Ireland to win the 2020 Get Ireland Growing grand prize worth €5,000 from Energia and GIY. Louise was presented with her prize by Alan Mulcahy from Energia and Karen O'Donohoe from GIY.
GIY CEO Mick Kelly encouraged all Get Ireland Growing participants, and everyone else who started growing food for the first time during lockdown, to keep up the good work despite the change of season.
"September is the month where growing becomes a way of life. The bumper harvests leave stripped plants to become compost for next year's growing and the enthusiasm to sow more seeds for homegrown food in the winter. The last few months have seen a surge in interest in food growing and our mission at GIY is to help make this stick. Ireland could quickly return to being a nation of food growers, which would have a profound impact on our health and well-being."
Runners up (non Cork!)
This is certainly the intention of the 2020 Energia Get Ireland Growing runner-up, Rebecca Ni Chriochain of Cleas community group on Inis Oirr who commented, "In the past, islanders grew more vegetables with no need to import any from the mainland. Who knows, maybe we will be able to return to that way of life again soon!"
Earlier this year, Cleas worked with ten residents of Inis Oírr island to set up an organic community garden growing a wide variety of vegetables including potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes, kale, cabbage, peas, parsnips, carrots, onions, lettuce, spinach, beetroot and even quinoa and wildflowers creating an even greater sense of community and aiming for more self-sufficiency. Cleas community group have been awarded €1,000 to develop their community garden further.
Last years grand prize winner (non Cork!)
Last year's winner, Pat Pender of the Zero Waste Community Garden in Rathcoffey in County Kildare echoed these sentiments and offered some advice to the 2020 winners, "Our garden was an absolute oasis during the lockdown. A number of people who used to grow were back at it, keen to make the most of the extra time available. For anyone starting a community garden, let people know what you're doing, welcome members from outside the parish and be open to donations – one person's waste is our treasure."

Electric Christiania Cargo Bike. February, 2017.
From a day care centre in Denmark to the streets of Dunsborough, this Christiania cargo bike has done some miles. However, with 3 growing kids it was time to either get a car or electrify this beauty. Thankfully the latter was chosen and this weekend we put an electric conversion kit on to help with daily commutes. The front wheels have stub axles and the rear wheel had an internal hub gear that they didn't want to lose so that eliminated all hub motor options; our final option was to use a Bafang mid-drive kit. There were a few hurdles to overcome but a day later it was all achieved and now this classic old bike will be seen daily doing the rounds of Dunsborough.


A lot of times we assume a healthy and balanced diet is enough for meeting our dietary demands. This is a fantastic area to begin yet it is not nearly enough. There are lots of various variables affecting the nutritional worth of our foods; dirt deficiency, low quality components, and producer's faster ways. Not to mention the bad options most make with convenience food. Also the Journal of the American Medical Organization suggests an everyday vitamin supplement.
So what is necessary to seek when purchasing a supplement? It is necessary to discover a GOOD, QUALITY dietary supplement that combines whole food nutrition, antioxidant security and also digestive enzymes with core nutrients in a gender details formula. I recognize that's a mouthful but this kind of supplement does exist. Because men and women have different nutritional needs and also their supplements must support these distinctions. The addition of a digestion enzyme can radically change exactly how your body functions by optimizing the food you eat and also assist support the food digestion of carbs, fats, healthy proteins as well as lactose. Check and read my article to know more information by clicking on the link.
The ORAC Worth of the supplement. ORAC stands for Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity. This is the test that measures the amount of antioxidant task in an item. The higher the ORAC worth the a lot more antioxidant protection the item offers from cost-free radicals. Seek a supplement with an ORAC worth of 3000 or better.
The STANDARDIZED of the supplement. A standardized supplement will certainly assure that every pill/capsule will have what the tag claims it does. For instance, if the bottle/box states there are 60 mg of Vitamin C, a standard product will certainly be precisely that. Versus a non-standardized item where one pill might have the 60 mg yet the next has 5mg. Ever ask yourself why you seem like your supplements function someday as well as not the following?
Search for a supplement that is standard. Satisfying USP standards for fragmentation as well as absorption. USP means USA Pharmacopeia. This deals with the extremely efficiency or effectiveness of the product. Does it do what it says it does? When you make a decision to add a high quality supplement to your everyday nourishment you desire the products to work. If you acquire a more affordable supplement, chances are the supplement will certainly not break down promptly sufficient for your body to absorb it and you will certainly end up sending out the supplement (and also your cash) away. Search for a supplement that fulfills USP requirements.
Offer your body the boost is needs! Include a supplement that supplies vital minerals and vitamins that will certainly aid your body job synergistically as well as ideally. Don't lose your money and time with low quality supplements that may or may not function and worse than that are loaded with lots of things you do not require; fillers, contaminants, caffeine, chemicals as well as animal by items. Take care of your body now as well as it will certainly be around for several years to come. Besides, you deserve it!

We tried to delete ~/.gem/ and assign the right to ~/.gem/specs following this post, it did not work. What's wrong with the rvm? Thanks for help.

A: pulling from comments.
rvm was installed as root, and needs to be owned by the ubuntu user (or you need to run all commands as root)
sudo chown -R ubuntu .rvm will fix the permissions errors
as for the ruby 2.0.0@global  it doesn't need to be removed.  if you look at the rvm documents that is used as a place to install gems that should be across all gemsets for that particular version of ruby  for instance I have bond, hirb, wirb, awesomeprint all in my global as they are referenced in my .irbrc. So as I create per project gemsets I always have them available to me (things like bundler are also handy there)

Review: PRS CE 24
Four Early Punk Icons and Their Gear
Gear Guide: Against Me!'s Laura Jane Grace Shares Her Love of Guitars and Favorite Gear
Text by Laurence Vidal
Since 1985, Paul Reed Smith has been producing top-of-the-line guitars. The original CE, or "Classic Electric," model was unveiled in 1988 and was the first of PRS guitars to have a traditional bolt-on neck design.
In 2008, production of the CE was halted. With a list of noteworthy updates, the CE 24 is back after almost ten years, accompanied by a PRS guarantee that it is "back and better than ever."
Swoon Factor
With an immaculate ruby red finish on a flamed maple top, it is hard to keep your eyes off of this instrument. PRS went with very classic details such as vintage style control knobs and a cream selector switch. The white pickup rings transition nicely into the iconic bird fingerboard inlays. The original CE donned white dot fret markers, so seeing the birds in a rich indian rosewood on this model is definitely an improvement. Minor details on this guitar such as satin saddles resting on a polished chrome bridge make this guitar a uniquely aesthetic success.
To be completely honest, the price point of most PRS guitars deterred me from ever test-driving one. After giving this model a spin, I am happy to report that I feel like the price matches the quality. I absolutely love the feel of the hardware on this guitar. The locking tuners are particularly worthy of note. At close inspection, it is obvious that every component on this guitar, even down to each strap button, has been designed and manufactured to be highly functional as well as durable.
Shredability
With a scale length of 25", the CE 24 stands right in between its classic contemporaries, the longer Fender Stratocaster (25.5") and the shorter Gibson Les Paul (24.75"). As someone who generally plays the longer Stratocaster or Telecaster, the CE 24 is surprisingly comfortable. The appropriately placed curves form to my body perfectly, and the cutaway makes for an easily accessible 24th fret. The PRS pattern thin neck shape really lends to fast fingering and mobility which seems to be the key reason why this guitar is so easily playable. Another pleasantly surprising feature is the PRS-designed tremolo. It is extremely responsive and easy to control. From ripping solos to finger picking, this instrument makes it easier to do it all.
Sonic Impact
With a total of six possible sounds, the CE 24 is equipped with two PRS 85/15 pickups (a treble at the bridge and bass at the neck), a 3-way toggle switch, and volume and push/pull tone control knobs. The most desirable aspect of these controls is that you can switch from double to single coil position. The 85/15s are capable of pulling out very clear and consistent tone with a lot of sustain. With a developed, multifaceted design, I highly doubt there is a style of music that this guitar could not produce.
As a newcomer to the world of PRS, I am completely sold on the versatility and quality of the CE 24. If you are on the hunt for endless tone options and value beautiful design, look no further; the CE 24 might just be your new favorite axe.

Ideal to match your Black Nickel radiator valves and shrouds.
Good ordering, delivery and communication. Product is spot on for the purpose and has a quality feel. Beware colour - it is not 'black' but a dark nickel.
Looks great. Worth paying little bit extra for the finish. Solid and well made like everything I've purchased from this company.
I bought two of these as I had a 12 section rad. When they arrived I was surprised how solid and heavy they were. A really high quality product.
We're pleased you would like to review Black Nickel Luxury Wall Stay.
My third order and will recommend products again. They look great, customer service is very efficient and speedy delivery.
Posted straight away, excellent product & easy to fit. Fitted to gun metal grey rads from same place looks superb & more importantly does what it should.
I bought this to compliment the Princess cast radiator I bought in pewter finish. I was unsure whether it would work with the new chrome valves I also bought but it looks really good, as well as being very functional.
The quality and the finish are great and it has a very clever installation arrangement that hides the screws in the wall that sets the whole thing off.
First class bracket and looks super with my recently refurbished old cast iron radiator.
Great value for money and highly recommended.
Bought with cast iron radiator to fix to wall for child safety. Beautiful product. Good price.
Great product with excellent service.
Looks good and sturdy suiting the rads very well.
Brought a radiator for a victorian house and was not disappointed. Looks amazing, fantastic service from start to finish. Will certainly be buying more for the rest of the house.
Fantastic and very easy transaction. Recommended supplier.
Great product and look really good on the radiators that I also bought from Coventry Demolition.
Great item(s) and service with next day delivery - thank you!
Excellent item, once again great service and would not hesitate in recommendingto family and friends.
Was worried when I bought these that they might look wrong against satin black radiators - but I needn't have worried. They look great and even though they are not the same colour they look as if they are meant to be and they become a focal point. I bought some satin black paint initially and considered re-painting them when I ordered them - I will now use the paint for something else. Radiators look great with these stays and chrome valves. Just remember to cut the stay threaded bolt from the bracket end to the correct length - this way you will have the good end attached to the bolt.
very good product with a very fast delivery was not expecting to get them so quick, the only thing that kills the product is the VAT but then again it kills all product prices.


As an Account Director, I strive to cultivate solid client relationships by positioning myself and our team as strategic partners. I act as a thought leader and internally drive account development as we identify opportunities to support business goals.
I chose this industry because it aligns with my outgoing personality. Every day is its own adventure, and no two days are the same! With each new project comes an opportunity to ask questions and learn more about a client, their industry and the internal agency team charged with finding the solution.


This hotel has been completely renovated in the typical Caribbean style. It is located on a beach of fine white sand, surrounded by beautiful palms, harmonizing perfectly with the beautiful nature and the colours of this corner of the Caribbean called Holbox. The turquoise sea and unforgettable sunsets are the backdrop that guests can admire every day during an unforgettable holiday. The classic decor, a relaxing atmosphere, and excellent location make this hotel the perfect place to stay.

The Home Depot Foundation Commits $1M to Hurricane Ida Relief
September 1, 2021 September 1, 2021 0 Comments	depot, foundation, home, hurricane, IDA, improvement, relief, retailer
The Home Depot Foundation announced a commitment of up to $1 million to support immediate disaster relief and long-term recovery efforts in the communities impacted by Hurricane Ida. This new disaster response grant takes the Foundation's 2021 disaster contributions to more than $6 million.
Additionally, The Home Depot's associate volunteer force, Team Depot, will assemble more than 1,000 disaster relief kits for distribution to the affected communities. These relief kits will include cleaning supplies, personal protective equipment, garbage bags and other items.
"Our thoughts are with the communities that have been impacted by Hurricane Ida," said Shannon Gerber, executive director of The Home Depot Foundation. "The Home Depot Foundation will work closely with our national and local nonprofit partners to help provide critical supplies and services throughout the recovery process."
Ahead of the hurricane season, The Home Depot Foundation pre-fortifies nonprofit partners' warehouses with emergency supplies for quick deployment to impacted areas. To identify and support the most urgent needs of the affected communities, the Foundation is working closely with its national nonprofit partners including Operation Blessing, ToolBank Disaster Services, Team Rubicon, All Hands and Hearts, Convoy of Hope and American Red Cross. The Home Depot Foundation and The Home Depot have activated warehouses across the country, mobilized response teams and deployed critical supplies to provide impacted communities with immediate assistance.
The Home Depot Foundation has also initiated response efforts with World Central Kitchen to provide hand trucks, pallet jacks and other tools to help with the organization's on-site cooking operations.
The company activated its disaster response teams on Saturday to support stores, associates and communities in the path of Hurricane Ida. Associates from the company's merchandising, operations, supply chain and other teams have been working around the clock. So far, hundreds of trucks have reached the area with products like generators, gas cans, lumber, AC units and fans. Several distribution centers across the southeast are ramping up to continue sending truckloads with supplies this week.
The Homer Fund, Home Depot's employee assistance program, is also actively processing emergency assistance grants for associates affected by this hurricane. As of yesterday, more than 400 associates received nearly $272,000 in emergency financial relief for Hurricane Ida. In 2020, The Homer Fund granted $1.1 million to support associates impacted by natural disasters.
The Home Depot Foundation and The Homer Fund are also continuing to monitor the Caldor Fire to identify and serve the needs of the communities impacted. To support relief efforts, The Home Depot Foundation has provided product donations, and The Homer Fund has activated assistance grants to impacted associates.

Over the last year, three board members have resigned, including the lone woman on the board, Jane Rosenthal. All three vacancies have been filled by men, which means that the NYRA board entirely comprises men.
Of the 16 officers of the New York Racing Association listed in the program, 12 are men.
At The Jockey Club Round Table Conference on Matters Pertaining to Racing on August 9, 10 of the 13 speakers were men. Since 2010, 63 speakers have been male; five have been women.
At the Saratoga Institute on Equine, Racing and Gaming Law, held on August 11 and 12 by Albany Law School, 54 speakers were listed in the program, 11 of them women.
Earlier this summer at the Grayson-Jockey Club Research Foundation Welfare and Safety of the Racehorse Summit, five of the 17 speakers were women.
Looking strictly at the summer events already held in Saratoga—the Round Table, the law conference, and the NYRA board meeting—88% of the speakers have been men.

If you come down to Delaware Park I can list you five Jockeys and ten trainers that are women in racing right here in Stanton, DE! Plus, this is where Rosie Napravnik stroved to establish the first part of her superb riding career.
Since 1939 Delaware Park has been at the forefront of racing's female component.

'Dead to Me's' James Marsden has some things to say about being the bad-guy lover
Yvonne Villarreal, Los Angeles Times on May 15, 2019
Published in Entertainment News
James Marsden knows a thing or two about being pegged as the bad-guy love interest. Hello, this is the guy who has spent the better part of the last 15 years being considered the "villain" in the modern-day romantic classic "The Notebook" with his portrayal as Lon, the non-Ryan Gosling war veteran and interim love interest to Rachel McAdam's Allie. It's a reputation he still challenges.
"There was nothing wrong with Lon in 'The Notebook,'" Marsden says matter-of-factly, with a layer of playfulness. "But for some reason, he's the bad guy. And it's like, wait, 1/8he's3/8 letting her actually go figure her stuff out. He's understanding! But some people think he's the bad guy." With his role in "Dead to Me," Marsden at least understands the animus. (Warning: spoilers ahead.)
The buzzed-about Netflix traumedy, released earlier this month, stars Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini in a story centered on the unlikely -- and darkly twisted -- friendship between two women. Judy (Cardellini) befriends Jen (Applegate) at a grief counseling group not long after the hit-and-run death of Jen's husband, Ted. Viewers soon learn that Judy was driving the car that killed Ted. And she's been covering it up at the urging of her smarmy, narcissistic, money-laundering ex-fiance Steve (Marsden), who was in the car with her when it happened.
Marsden, who will also be seen later this summer in Quentin Tarantino's tardy Cannes entry "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood," and this fall in "Sonic the Hedgehog," spoke with The Times about playing a jerk, mastering the art of the trampoline and his thoughts on death.
Q: You had quite the pivot -- going from filming "Sonic the Hedgehog" to "Dead to Me." What drew you to the role of Steve?
A: Yes, I'd just finished "Sonic" so I was exhausted. In that movie, it's you and nothing. Like it's Ben 1/8Schwartz3/8 creating the voice somewhere on a soundstage in L.A. and I'm with a green screen. So I was beat and they said there's this really cool Netflix project with Linda Cardellini and Christina 1/8Applegate3/8. I love them both, I'm friends with both of them. And was told Liz Feldman is writing and producing it and is the showrunner and here's what it's about and here's the script to the first episode.
I thought the tone of the show was fresh. It was a half-hour comedy but it was really heavy and dark, which is to me my favorite source of comedy. So it was all of those things. Working with some of my favorite people and doing something that felt original in a time where it's tough to get original content anymore.
Q: How much were you filled in on what Steve's trajectory would be?
A: I had one script and I had a phone conversation with Liz where she's like, "OK, he is kind of heavy and not a great guy ... he's got some issues in his life, got some problems and he likes to launder money and use his charm to get what he wants, and to create, what we realize later, was a nice giant house of cards. 1/8He3/8 manipulates the two women to pit them against each other to some degree."
What was appealing to me about the character though, was that there was a sense of douchebaggery that was kind of fun to play.

Background: Guidelines have changed following new landmark studies on hypertension. Whether use of antihypertensive drugs in clinical practice reflects the temporal changes in guidelines are unknown. We examined long-term trends in the use of antihypertensive drugs in Denmark.
Methods: From nationwide prescription data, we obtained information on primary care use of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB), beta blockers, diuretics, aldosterone receptor antagonists and calcium channel blockers (CCBs) during 1999—2015.
Results: During the 17-year period, the use of antihypertensive drugs per 1,000 inhabitants/day increased from 184 to 379 defined daily doses (DDD), corresponding to a rise in the prevalence proportion of users in the entire Danish population from ≈20% to ≈35%. From 1999 to 2015, a notable increase in use was observed for ACE inhibitors (from 29 to 105 DDD per 1,000 inhabitants/day ≈260%) and ARBs (from 13 to 73 DDD per 1,000 inhabitants/day ≈520%). For diuretics the use remained stable, with a slight decreasing tendency (from 89 to 81 DDD per 1,000 inhabitants/day ≈-10%). The use of aldosterone receptor antagonists increased until 2007 and remained unchanged at around 3.5 DDD per 1,000 inhabitants/day thereafter (average change over the whole period ≈65%). The use of beta blockers doubled during the study period (from 17 to 34 DDD per 1,000 inhabitants/day ≈100%), entirely driven by increasing use of metoprolol. Similar trends were observed for CCBs (from 34 to 82 DDD per 1,000 inhabitants/day ≈140%), with amlodipine driving the overall increase.
Conclusions: Antihypertensive drug use has increased remarkably during the past two decades. The change was driven by specific drugs within each class of antihypertensive drugs and correlated with the publication of landmark studies for the medical treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure.

Emmys 2018: Who are hosts Colin Jost and Michael Che?
By Áine Ryan| 1 year ago
Meet the funnymen running this year's show
Saturday Night Live stars Michael Che and Colin Jost have been busy preparing for one of the toughest gigs in show business -- hosting the 2018 Emmy Awards on September 18. The duo will become the first non-late-night hosts to do the job since Eddie Murphy in 1983, who was also a SNL star at the time.
In April this year, NBC Entertainment chairman Robert Greenblatt announced the comedians would be hosting the 2018 Emmy Awards.
"NBC is thrilled to be the home of this year's Emmy Awards, and with Colin and Michael in the driver's seat as hosts, along with surprise appearances by other cast members of Saturday Night Live. I think we are in for one of the funniest awards shows in a long time," he said.
So who are the two funnymen?
Colin Jost is 36
He grew up on Staten Island, New York and quickly became a keen writer. He was editor of his school newspaper and when he went to Harvard University he was president of The Harvard Lampoon. He was hired as a writer for Saturday Night Live at the age of 22.
Michael Che is 35
He was born and raised in Manhattan, New York, and began performing stand-up comedy in 2009. He joined Saturday Night Live as a writer in 2013.
They host SNL's 'Weekend Update'
Like Jimmy Fallon, Tina Fey, Seth Meyers and Amy Poehler before them, Jost and Che have been hosting the hugely popular 'Weekend Update' segment on Saturday Night Live since 2014. Jost was a writer on the show for years before eventually landing the 'Weekend Update' gig, whereas Che left a short-lived stint on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart to take up the position as Jost's co-anchor.
They're also SNL co-head writers
As head writers (alongside Bryan Tucker and Kent Sublette), Jost and Che oversee every joke that makes it to air.
Jost is dating Scarlett Johansson
Jost and ScarJo have been dating since May 2017 when she appeared on the show. However, they first met when she hosted in 2006.
"The first time she hosted was the first year I was a writer on the show," Jost told Entertainment Tonight last year. "So, we've kind of known each other since then… she's the best."
But he used to date Rashida Jones
Jost dated the Parks and Recreation star until 2016. They reportedly met at Seth Meyers' wedding in 2013. Jones is the very talented daughter of Quincy Jones and Peggy Lipton.
They make a nice salary
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Jost is worth $6 million and he earns $25,000 per episode of SNL. Meanwhile, Che is worth $4 million and earns $15,000 per episode of SNL.
They… don't like award shows?
Specifically Jost, who was criticised after telling the Los Angeles Times in August that he thought award shows were too self-serious and most of the country didn't care about them (despite the fact he's about to host one).
They might take home an Emmy themselves
SNL is up for 21 awards -- more than any other comedy program on the night -- and the show's writers are nominees, Che and Jost included.
They'll be leaning on SNL cast members past and present
The duo have said that most of the writing staff for their hosting gig will be made up of their SNL writers, while they have reached out to previous hosts -- like Tina Fey, who hosted the Golden Globes three times with BFF Amy Poehler -- for advice.

Having found its home on the label just a few months back, Hannah Wants' Toolroom debut 'Just' recently made a return with two remixes from Toolroom nu-skool artists; Ben Remember and Illyus & Barrientos.
Ben provides a sleazy, low-slung re-interpretation for the underground floors, incorporating rough drums and rumbling bass. He reforms the vocal sequence whilst adding off-shots from Hannah's stems, creating a big remix. Illyus & Barrientos take things a little deeper by altering the mood of the track and adding a funky twist to the proceedings and rounding off the package.

Q: Using arrays with loops Good day to everyone,
I have multiple pages and I want to loop them all into individual arrays, but I couldn't. Thanks in advance to those who will help.

Option Explicit
Dim d1() As Variant, d2() As Variant, d3() As Variant, d4() As Variant, d5() As Variant, d6() As Variant
Dim d7() As Variant, d8() As Variant, d9() As Variant, d10() As Variant, d11() As Variant, d12() As Variant
Dim personel As Collection, sonuc() As Variant

Sub examples()
Dim i As Integer
d1 = Sheet1.Range("A4:AX34")
d2 = Sheet2.Range("A4:AX34")
d3 = Sheet3.Range("A4:AX34")
d4 = Sheet4.Range("A4:AX34")
d5 = Sheet5.Range("A4:AX34")
d6 = Sheet6.Range("A4:AX34")
d7 = Sheet7.Range("A4:AX34")
d8 = Sheet8.Range("A4:AX34")
d9 = Sheet9.Range("A4:AX34")
d10 = Sheet10.Range("A4:AX34")
d11 = Sheet11.Range("A4:AX34")
d12 = Sheet12.Range("A4:AX34")
End Sub

A: I'm not sure I understand what you are asking, but based on your code, it looks as though you could use help converting what you have written using 12 variables into code that uses one array.  Here is the simplest conversion of your existing code to use a single array instead of many variables:
Option Explicit
Dim d(12) As Variant

Sub example1()
    d(1) = Sheet1.Range("A4:AX34")
    d(2) = Sheet2.Range("A4:AX34")
    d(3) = Sheet3.Range("A4:AX34")
    d(4) = Sheet4.Range("A4:AX34")
    d(5) = Sheet5.Range("A4:AX34")
    d(6) = Sheet6.Range("A4:AX34")
    d(7) = Sheet7.Range("A4:AX34")
    d(8) = Sheet8.Range("A4:AX34")
    d(9) = Sheet9.Range("A4:AX34")
    d(10) = Sheet10.Range("A4:AX34")
    d(11) = Sheet11.Range("A4:AX34")
    d(12) = Sheet12.Range("A4:AX34")
End Sub

However, it is unclear what you are trying to accomplish.  I'm not sure what it means to just assign a variant to a range.  If you are trying to have each variable (or element of the array) refer to the range on each sheet, then you'll need to use the "set" keyword to bind a variable (or element of an array) to an object.  In this case, it's slightly more efficient to declare the array of the "range" type instead of variant as follows.  I've added a loop to print the value from the first row, third column in the range on each sheet (which is cell C4 on the sheet) for demonstration purposes.
Option Explicit
Dim d(12) As Range

Sub example1()
    Dim i As Integer
    Set d(1) = Sheet1.Range("A4:AX34")
    Set d(2) = Sheet2.Range("A4:AX34")
    Set d(3) = Sheet3.Range("A4:AX34")
    Set d(4) = Sheet4.Range("A4:AX34")
    Set d(5) = Sheet5.Range("A4:AX34")
    Set d(6) = Sheet6.Range("A4:AX34")
    Set d(7) = Sheet7.Range("A4:AX34")
    Set d(8) = Sheet8.Range("A4:AX34")
    Set d(9) = Sheet9.Range("A4:AX34")
    Set d(10) = Sheet10.Range("A4:AX34")
    Set d(11) = Sheet11.Range("A4:AX34")
    Set d(12) = Sheet12.Range("A4:AX34")

    For i = 1 To 12
        Debug.Print d(i).Cells(1, 3).Address, d(i).Cells(1, 3).Value
    Next
End Sub

This code is a bit longer than I would like it to be but to refer to each sheet by its object name, that what we have to do.  If sheet names have a pattern similar to the code names, we can shorten the code significantly:
Option Explicit
Dim d(12) As Range

Sub example1()
    Dim i As Integer

    For i = 1 To 12
       Set d(i) = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet" & i).Range("A4:AX34")
       Debug.Print d(i).Cells(1, 3).Address, d(i).Cells(1, 3).Value
    Next

End Sub

An important thing about Arrays in VBA is that they start counting at 0 instead of 1.  So in all of the examples above, we have an unused element of the array at the very beginngin.  We can issue a compiler directive (Option Base 1) atop the code to tell the VBA interpreter to start arrays counting at 1 as follows:
Option Base 1
Option Explicit
Dim d(12) As Range

Sub example1()
    Dim i As Integer

    For i = 1 To 12
       Set d(i) = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet" & i).Range("A4:AX34")
       Debug.Print d(i).Cells(1, 3).Address, d(i).Cells(1, 3).Value
    Next

End Sub

However, I think it is more commonly done to allow the arrays to count from zero and just offset the array index as needed as follows:
Option Explicit
Dim d(11) As Range

Sub example1()
    Dim i As Integer

    For i = 0 To 11
       Set d(i) = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet" & i + 1).Range("A4:AX34")
       Debug.Print d(i).Cells(1, 3).Address, d(i).Cells(1, 3).Value
    Next

End Sub

This is all fine, but we often do not know the number of elements we need in the array before the code runs.  To make the size of the array dynamic, we declare the array without specifying a size and use the ReDim statement to set its size at runtime (notice the empty parentheses when the array is delclared, and the use of the "Ubound" statement in the For Loop to find the upper boundry of the array):
Option Explicit
Dim d() As Range

Sub example1()
    Dim i As Integer
    ReDim d(ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Count - 1)
    For i = 0 To UBound(d)
       Set d(i) = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet" & i + 1).Range("A4:AX34")
       Debug.Print d(i).Cells(1, 3).Address, d(i).Cells(1, 3).Value
    Next

End Sub

Finally, I see from the original code posting that you are familiar with collections.  Because a collection is an object with properties and methods, it may be simpler to use a collection instead of an array, which is just a memory allocation scheme.
Option Explicit
Dim d As New Collection

Sub example1()
    Dim i As Integer

    For i = 1 To ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Count
       d.Add ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet" & i).Range("A4:AX34")
       Debug.Print d(i).Cells(1, 3).Address, d(i).Cells(1, 3).Value
    Next

End Sub

Notice here that collections start counting at 1.

Animals Escape Zoo After Tornado Hits Oklahoma City
After tornados struck several plain states, tigers and wild animals were able to briefly escape the Tiger Safari park in Tuttle.
Real World Survivor Editor
At least 39 tornadoes were reported in the Plains from Nebraska to northwest Texas Wednesday. Multiple rounds of severe spring storms with tornadoes and flooding rain clobbered parts of the south Oklahoma City metro area late Wednesday afternoon and evening, according to The Weather Channel.

RELATED: Man Survives Sub-Zero Temps, Wolverine Attack in Alaskan Wilderness
The tornado made cars flip, downed power lines and snapped trees. Even several roads were closed because of debris. It also caused tigers and other wild animals to escape from The Tiger Safari, an exotic wildlife park.
According to The Guardian, tigers and other animals were able to briefly escape from the Tiger Safari park after a tornado struck the city of Tuttle, about 30 miles (48km) south-west of Oklahoma City, though they were recaptured without further incident, the Grady County Sheriff's Office said.
There were no immediate reports of injuries but some structures were damaged as a storm system brought severe weather to several Great Plains states, officials said.
Residents of Tuttle had been warned to stay indoors by authorities after the escape.
According to KWCH, when a tiger escaped its enclosure, the zoo called a "code red" and went on lockdown.

Turns out, there was a hole in the tiger's cage and it managed to escape its main enclosure, though the zoo says the public was never in any danger because the tiger was still secure.
The tiger was tranquilized and moved to a holding building to be monitored by veterinarians.
At The Tiger Safari, which housed leopards, lions, alligators, tigers and other exotic animals, the Grady County Sheriff's Office confirmed after 10 p.m. on Wednesday that all of the animals have been accounted to.

I like shaking hands with whoever I meet. All my handshakes are firm with full of warm, right from my heart. And I know those who received my hand could feel my sincerity. Through the years, I learn to feel the personalities and qualities of those individuals who allowed me to shake their hands. Each time when another hand is holding mine, I take a quick short moment to grip and to understand that particular person. Is he the friendly and approachable type, or bossy and the serious one! Take my words, the handshake tells.
A successful person has a firm and confident hand. A wealthy person has a broad hand palm with short fingers. Whenever I shake someone hand, I will add a few lines to say.."You have a powerful hand which shows your success" or "Your hand tells you are rich". All men like to hear these compliments. Ladies' handshakes are lighter and softer. My compliments to them are.. "I could feel you are a romantic lady with your tender hand" or "Your hand reveals you have a loving heart my dear". Believe me! All women loves them too.
So! If you want to know more about others, be more observance in your future handshakes. Don't forget all approaches start with a good handshake first. Right?

Home / compendium decisions / Council of State ("Conseil d'État�...
Council of State ("Conseil d'État"), Litigation Section, Ms. Cinar, 22 September 1997, No. 161364
Constitution of France
If the Constitutional Council, at the request of the President of the Republic, the Prime Minister, the President of one or the other assembly or by sixty deputies or sixty senators, has declared that an international commitment contains a clause contrary to the Constitution, authorization to ratify or approve the international commitment in question may be given only after amendment of the Constitution.
Duly ratified or approved treaties or agreements shall, upon publication, prevail over acts of Parliament, subject, in regard to each agreement or treaty, to its application by the other party.
Ratified treaty1
A Turkish national legally domiciled in France/ Entry of her child into France without administrative authorization/ Administrative decision of expulsion / Best interest of the child/ Direct solution of a dispute on the basis of international law
A citizen of Turkey, Ms Cinar, having obtained a resident's permit in France following a family reunification with her parents, brought her own child, then four years old, to France without requesting prior authorization for the latter's residence. Her later request for a residence permit was rejected by the Prefect for violation of the rules for entry into France, and the Prefect ordered the expulsion of the young child on that basis.
Ms Cinar challenged the Prefect's decision, which was confirmed by the administrative tribunal of first instance. Based on the Convention on the Rights of the Child ratified by France, Ms Cinar appealed that decision and that appeal finally reached the Council of State.
In order to resolve the dispute, the Council of State considered first of all the applicability of an international convention to the administrative authorities and the possibility of invoking it in an appeal before the administrative tribunals. The Council of State decided the following:
"Taking into account that in the terms of Article 3(1) of the Convention on the Rights of the Child of 26 January 1990, published by law on 8 October 1990, 'in all decisions concerning children, whether originated by public or private institutions of social protection, courts, administrative authorities or legislative bodies, the child's best interest shall be the essential consideration'. As a result of these stipulations, which can be usefully invoked in support of a claim for ultra vires action ("recours pour excès de pouvoir"), the administrative authority, in the exercise of its power, must pay primary attention to the best interest of the child in all decisions concerning them."
That point having been raised, the Council of State based its decision directly on the UN Convention on Rights of the Child in order to judge the validity of the Prefect's decision:
"The records for this case showed that neither the child's father, whom she did not know and who had never provided any aid for her education, nor any other close family member could receive the child in Turkey. Under those conditions, the Prefect's decision to expel the young Tolga to Turkey and to separate her, even temporarily, from her mother, undermined the child's best interest and should be considered as contrary to Article 3(1) of the Convention on the Rights of the Child."
On the basis of violation of Article 3(1) of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the French Council of State overturned the decision of the court of first instance and annulled the Prefect's decision which was the reason for the appeal.
1 Convention on the Rights of the Child, 1989.


Discussion in 'Smalltalk' started by Echtap, Jul 9, 2016.
Anyone got any suggestions for good free ones?
I personally like pass and use QtPass as gui on my KDE installation... but I guess that's not an option for you.
I guess not! I feel like setting up my own syncing system and just reuploading/downloading the spreadsheet file each time I need the latest version. Problem is storing it online on a server is just going to be a security risk.
Hmm interesting. I'll definitely consider it then.
the problem is probably with windows.... not sure if it works through cygwin.
I use KeepassX on Ubuntu 16.04 and macOS, they use the same interface.
They sync with DropBox and the work really well.
I've been pondering, Win 10 supports now a Linux Subsystem (still has to be enabled though)... but with that linux subsystem one should gain easy access to pass and stuff. So pass (Password Store) shuld now also be easy to use on Windows.
The sticky password manager is the best, which helps in syncs data automatically.
Are these password managers reliable? I just don't feel safe having all my passwords in one place. Nothing is 100% secure when something is on the internet.
define reliable? Pass is a "simple" bash scripts that creates gpg encrypted files in an easy and convenient manner. Git can be used to sync passwords among different devices.... the only drawback is, that the filenames are not encrypted but cleartext.... so you might not want to track them with public git.
I don't want my externally stored encrypted data to be breakable when stored on servers I don't control, which is why I use LastPass. Yes, also on linux. It's also free. I've personally tested and experienced the fact that NSA or others cannot possibly access the blob containing your encrypted passwords and other data. I did try others, like keepass, dashlane, many of them, but there wasn't one that worked well enough in Firefox, and not one that stood the crypto-tests for me. I trust lastpass with my ssh, bank-account-keys and company docs too. There's nothing like it.
They've suffered some minor audit breaches, like all passwd managers, the thing you have to watch out for is *how* software and its devs handle such breaches.
It's (partly) closed-source software, but I personally know and trust Jeff, its founder and lead dev, which is why I trust them. They know their responsibility. And they understand I also would like to be able to access my data offline.
LastPass is confortable but IMHO a security risk. There's too much going on in a browser as that I would trust a browser plugin with all my data. I stick with the cli tool "pass" and QtPass for Gui.
"I don't want my externally stored encrypted data to be breakable when stored on servers I don't control, which is why I use LastPass."
You don't control LastPass servers. You don't know if an update deactivates encryption. In the past, LastPass did store everything unencrypted. It's easy for LastPass to get your master key.
It's a contradiction: You don't know how they store the data or if they even encrypt it or if the intercept the master key form your input.
Your data is in the hands of a 3rd party.
I have been using KeePassXC for my Windows/Mac and Ubuntu set up.
It made my life so much easier than carrying around a notebook that I can lose.
I thought about using a password manager but I wonder how easy it is for a hacker to get in and steal all your passwords.
you can split the ciphered db file in two files for 2 different locations. Make some bash or .bat routine to join both before start the pass manager and to split again at the end. Not need to send the whole file to some cloud service.

Pirelli: Don't blame tyres for F1's dull Russian GP at Sochi
Pirelli insists that a different tyre choice for the Russian Grand Prix would not have helped prevent a boring Formula 1 race
The rare phenomenon of zero tyre degradation was highlighted as a factor in the lack of excitement from Sochi's F1 debut.
But Pirelli motorsport director Paul Hembery doubts the race would have been any better with different compounds.
"We get criticised whatever we do," Hembery told AUTOSPORT, referring to previous complaints over high-degradation tyres.
"I think people just have short memories, and that is one of the problems. It puts us in an impossible situation, as you can imagine.
"I am not sure we would have dramatically changed the scenario if we had come here with the super-softs."
Hembery thinks that part of the problem in Russia was that the track surface was behaving in a strange way, which meant the tyres did not act as they have done elsewhere.
"Even the softer tyre was doing its fastest laps right at the end of each stint, so I think it was a combination of circumstances," he said.
"Certainly the surface here has an impact, and maybe that will change as well in the future.
"It might be a case that it was freshly laid, there were certain ingredients coming out, providing or assisting with an adhesive grip on a smooth surface, and that was why the performance was improving."
OLD STYLE RACES NOT EXCITING
Red Bull boss Christian Horner was one of many who suggested that the Russian GP served as a reminder of why zero tyre degradation races were not as thrilling as Pirelli's critics recall.
"I think there needs to be a balance," he said. "This is the first time that we have been on this surface, and this asphalt.
"The Pirelli tyre was bulletproof on this circuit, so hopefully they will take some lessons away from this that old style races like that are not exciting.
"The races that we have had this year, with two or three stops, have been really entertaining and that is what hopefully in the remaining three races we will go back to."
