Orkla acquires Dansk Droge
WEBWIRE – Wednesday, May 24, 2006
Orkla has entered into an agreement to take over all the shares in Dansk Droge. The company will play an important part in connection with Orkla's focus on health-related consumer products in the years and months ahead.
Dansk Droge manufactures and markets a wide range of health-related consumer products, including the Futura, Gerimax, Livol and Litozin brands. The company's export sales have been growing in recent years, and its exports to more than 25 countries account for approximately 60 per cent of operating revenues. Dansk Droge primarily distributes its products through grocery stores on the Scandinavian market, while other export markets are mainly served through pharmacies and specialised stores.
"Orkla sees opportunities in health-related consumer products. With the acquisition of Dansk Droge we have strengthened our Nordic position in this sector, and can offer consumers a wider range of products to choose between," says Senior Vice President Torkild Nordberg.
"With Polaris as its owner, Dansk Droge has achieved significant sales growth since 2002 and market positions in all the Nordic countries and Poland. In Orkla, Dansk Droge has a new owner with a strong position as a supplier of branded consumer goods to Nordic retailers," says Viggo Nedergaard Jensen, Managing Partner in Polaris.
The majority shareholder in Dansk Droge is Polaris Private Equity, which owns 72 per cent of the shares. The Sports Nutrition companies SPP in Sweden and Finland, which have been responsible for around 17 per cent of Dansk Droge's total operating revenues, are not included in this transaction. The SPP companies have sales and distribution rights in Scandinavia to some of the leading sports nutrition brands, including Twinlab, Multipower, Weider and Met-Rx.
Dansk Droge has approximately 297 employees. The part of the company that has been taken over posted operating revenues of around NOK 400 million in 2005.
Dansk Droge is the leading drug company in Denmark in the field of multivitamins, dietary supplements and homeopathic medicines. At its production plant, the most modern in the Nordic region, the company manufactures a wide range of dietary supplements that are sold in supermarkets, Matas, health food stores and pharmacies.

If I toggle idle processes off in top the only processes showing are ftp and top itself.
All the other non-ftp processes are less than one percent %CPU.
tcpdump and strace for the ftp processes don't show activity.
It looks like this means the 4 cpu's are each using a small amount of %us userspace time to the four ftp processes which are niced so it shows at 99 %ni, meaning of the little userspace time used it was almost all niced. There is no idle time %id because those ftp processes are doing something.
Am I reading these number correctly?
Are the ftp processes busy with a Linux empty task?

A: This is not an answer to your specific issue with ftp but a more general answer.
strace is short for system trace. It only traces system calls and signals.
So this will eat a CPU thread, but strace will show nothing, because it does not make system calls:
perl -e 'while(1){}'

This is not the normal way to wait. Normally you use sleep or blocking on I/O both of which take no CPU time.

A: The ftp processes are probably multithreaded, and you are only seeing the details of the first thread.
If you have a similar version of top to the one on my machine, then pressing H will toggle the threads display, and you will see additional details appear of the threads.
My guess is that the strace output is showing the ftp processes are blocked on a futex system call (there are other possibilities including read and nanosleep) as it waits for worker threads. I would also guess that these processes have nothing to do with file transfer protocol, but are instead doing crypto coin mining although that is much less certain.
The ftp processes are not busy with a Linux empty task, for any reasonable interpretation of what that means.

Article Review 96 on "Why U.S. Efforts to Promote the Rule of Law in Afghanistan Failed"9 min read
April 10, 2018 by Noah Coburn·Comments Off on Article Review 96 on "Why U.S. Efforts to Promote the Rule of Law in Afghanistan Failed"9 min read
For all their differences, Presidents Donald Trump and Barack Obama have taken remarkably similar approaches to Afghanistan. Both entered office, conducted reviews of the domestically unpopular American-led war, and ultimately decided to increase the U.S. troop numbers there while continuing to support shaky, often corrupt, Afghan government partners.

Review by Noah Coburn, Bennington College

The most notable difference is the absence from Trump's approach of any discussion of the parallel "civilian surge"–an upscaling of U.S. efforts through diplomacy, development, and support of democratization and rule of law efforts. Because Trump is pulling away from these non-military approaches, this is a useful moment to consider some of the shortcomings of these earlier state building efforts. Geoffrey Swenson provides a timely review of U.S. policy on the promotion of rule of law and the potential lessons learned from programming in Afghanistan.
While there have been reviews of certain thematic aspects of the United States' rule of law programming in Afghanistan,[1] as well as a scathing 2015 report by the Special Investigator General for Afghan Reconstruction,[2] less has been done to explore how the experience of the U.S. in Afghanistan might reshape how we assess rule of law efforts in post-conflict settings. In this sense, it is useful to consider the implications of the article for more general studies of rule of law efforts around the globe.[3]
Unfortunately, as Swenson's assessment shows, despite hundreds of millions in aid, specifically for rule of law programming, "U.S. assistance to Afghanistan has done little to advance the rule of law in the country and, in certain instances, has been counterproductive" (116). For those familiar with the corruption of the Afghan state, the waste of contractors, and the revolving door of new U.S. approaches to Afghanistan, this conclusion is unsurprising. The article's strength comes instead from the systematic analysis of the ten main programs that the U.S. funded in the country since 2004 and how it was possible that such mistakes were made repeatedly for years, with little correction.
Swenson argues that rule of law programming struggled due primarily to the fact that American "initiatives consistently reflected a deeply flawed set of assumptions" (117). The central of these, perhaps, was that Afghanistan in 2001 (and, indeed, the thinking went, as late as 2011) was "a justice vacuum," an idea that failed to recognize that the program took place "in an ever-more crowded, highly contested and violent space" (121). This failure of the U.S. government to understand the complexity of the political context of these programs has multiple causes, some of which Swenson highlights, such as the bureaucratic inflexibility of U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) oversight, and some of which he pays less attention to, such as the difficulty of U.S. government officials to gather useful data about the local context of programming and their strict reliance on implementing partners to give them information that was inherently biased towards the concerns of the contractors.
Because of the high levels of legal pluralism in society, the Afghan case, Swenson points out, is a particularly tricky and instructive one.[4] Across the country, the formal judiciary both cooperates and competes with a range of informal actors, such as mullahs and tribal leaders, and is ostensibly also subject to Islamic law. Swenson outlines how U.S. programming struggled to understand and adapt to these local complexities. He suggests five potential strategies for shaping relationships between state and non-state actors in pluralistic settings: bridging, harmonization, incorporation, subsidization, and repression. U.S. programming, he demonstrates, did not select one strategy, but instead seemed to bounce from one to another, somewhat haphazardly, while attempting to negotiate the reporting demands of USAID and other funders.
Much of the failings here are poor planning and limited knowledge of local conditions, particularly a failure to understand the motivations and priorities of the Afghan government. Government officials were eager to take advantage of international funds coming into the country and loath to acknowledge the existence of non-state actors. While non-state actors were oftentimes willing to attempt bridging and harmonizing strategies, government officials themselves favored repression and, occasionally, incorporation.[5] U.S. programs, and the diplomats guiding them, did little to try and reconcile these differences or change the political calculus of the situation.
It is here that the article offers the most for comparative studies of rule of law programming elsewhere, while succumbing somewhat to some of the failings of programming in Afghanistan: instead of looking at how rule of law and access to justice have shifted over the past fifteen years in Afghanistan, programming assessments remain focused strictly on the specific outcomes of U.S. programs. A more bottom-up approach to assessing rule of law might notice, for instance, that threats to accessing justice have shifted from warlords in the early 2000s, who were largely outside the government, to the current status, where a ruling elite that is both inside and outside the government tends to limit access to justice. A more locally oriented approach would look at how certain types of commercial law have made significant strides, while attempts at rooting out corruption have failed. Using Swenson's framework, state and non-state actors have, completely independently of U.S. programs and priorities, continued a historically continuous process of harmonization that has solidified elite control over aspects of the political-economy. As a result, the unstated lesson from the article is that instead of asking how to fix or refigure U.S. programming, we should be asking what the local conditions regarding rule of law are and then, how programming can support rule of law development.
For example, in the small Afghan town in which I spent time conducting research between 2006 and 2008, and still visit regularly, there was little demand among town residents for a formal judicial presence, particularly in the form of a court or local prosecutor.[6] For the most part, small-scale disputes were resolved through local councils of elders (commonly referred to as shuras by most non-Pashtun Afghans) and for larger cases, people would head to one of the courts in the larger town down the road. However, the town had been abandoned after an attack by the Taliban in the late 1990s, forcing townspeople to live in Kabul or Pakistan in refugee camps. Following the U.S.-led invasion in 2001, townspeople had returned in a series of waves. This meant there were constant disputes about boundary lines and inheritance of property. As a result, there was a significant demand for an office for civil claims (huquq in Dari), where these cases could be registered. Later, doing work elsewhere in the country, I found other such incidents; especially among farmers, civil claims over land boundaries can deeply shape livelihoods and are a central concern for much of the country.
Yet American and other international programming almost entirely ignored this aspect of the judiciary. Focused instead with drug trafficking and prosecuting major crimes, most of the U.S. programming went to aspects of the Afghan judicial systems that were the least relevant to most Afghans. Since programming decisions were made in the Embassy and Washington, and were heavily influenced by implementing contractors, who wanted funds for programs they were best suited to run (here I think Swenson underestimates the role of contractors in shaping USAID priorities), these on-the-ground realities did little to shape how programming developed.
The lesson for future interventions is not to enter a country and attempt to build a judiciary from scratch, nor is it to ignore the rule of law–the approach that the current administration seems committed to. Instead, a more balanced approach to intervention is necessary and Swenson's thoughtful essay is a good place to begin thinking through what this balance might look like.
Swenson's article aptly demonstrates how both the Bush and Obama administrations failed to take into account local conditions, building programs for the rule of law contractors that wanted to see, rather than for what was needed. The current administration seems to have assumed that state-building and diplomacy should largely be removed from military efforts in Afghanistan and elsewhere. Both of these approaches are wrong.
Swenson's critique offers a useful starting point, but until we become more thoughtful at looking at the rule of law and actual conditions on the ground, American and other Western-led attempts at intervention will continue to fall short of their goals.

Jon woke up and remained motionless. Not only because he felt an icy stab of fear when he noticed Danny had disappeared, but also because of the scene that surrounded him. Scattered icebergs floated wearily in the sea, the sky clear and bright like a sincere smile—only instead of a smile, the sun shined cheerfully. Best of all, the black no longer stained the ocean. Gone, as if it never existed. The only traces were small black stains on the edge of the ice floe and Jon's fur, still almost completely coated in the oily substance. But he could not enjoy the beauty of the scene because Danny was missing which brought the realization he was alone. That frightened him more than anything. The silence surrounding him made him uneasy and he felt panic rising in his throat.

Silver Sneakers is a plan available through many Medicare Advantage Care insurance plans that offers a free health club membership. This is a great benefit to seniors and disabled individuals who need to focus on exercise to improve their health. (Don't we all?) Many seniors have reported better health after regularly participating in a Silver Sneakers plan and joining for FREE is such a benefit!
For those who receive Medicare health insurance, now is the time to pick your plan for 2014. The open enrollment is available now and ends on December 7th, 2013.
Silver Sneakers is a great plan that was included in many of the Medicare Advantage plans available in 2013. Unfortunately this does not seem to be the case for 2014 as insurers have had to cut benefits normally included in the Medicare Advantage plans due to changes related to the Affordable Care Act. For 2014 Medicare Advantage plans, it is more difficult to find a plan that continues to offer Silver Sneakers. In fact, many Humana and United Healthcare PPO plans no longer offer the Silver Sneakers option.
These are issues you need to consider when picking your Medicare Advantage plan for the 2014 plan year. More information is available at Medicare.gov where you can compare current plans available in your area and research which ones still include Silver Sneakers.

Three miles up the river Thames from the center of Oxford, some distance from where the great colleges of Jordan, Gabriel, Balliol, and two dozen others contended for mastery in the boat races, out where the city was only a collection of towers and spires in the distance over the misty levels of Port Meadow, there stood the Priory of Godstow, where the gentle nuns went about their holy business; and on the opposite bank from the priory there was an inn called the Trout.
The inn was an old stone-built rambling, comfortable sort of place. There was a terrace above the river, where peacocks (one called Norman and the other called Barry) stalked among the drinkers, helping themselves to snacks without the slightest hesitation and occasionally lifting their heads to utter ferocious and meaningless screams. There was a saloon bar where the gentry, if college scholars count as gentry, took their ale and smoked their pipes; there was a public bar where watermen and farm laborers sat by the fire or played darts, or stood at the bar gossiping, or arguing, or simply getting quietly drunk; there was a kitchen where the landlord's wife cooked a great joint every day, with a complicated arrangement of wheels and chains turning a spit over an open fire; and there was a potboy called Malcolm Polstead.
Malcolm was the landlord's son, an only child. He was eleven years old, with an inquisitive, kindly disposition, a stocky build, and ginger hair. He went to Ulvercote Elementary School a mile away, and he had friends enough, but he was happiest on his own, playing with his dæmon, Asta, in their canoe, on which Malcolm had painted the name LA BELLE SAUVAGE. A witty acquaintance thought it amusing to scrawl an S over the V, and Malcolm patiently painted it out three times before losing his temper and knocking the fool into the water, at which point they declared a truce.
From then on she did. She and Malcolm took not the slightest notice of each other; he put the glasses on the draining board, she washed them, and he dried them and took them back to the bar without a word, without a glance, without a thought.
But he enjoyed the life of the inn. He especially enjoyed the conversations he overheard, whether they concerned the venal rascality of the River Board, the helpless idiocy of the government, or more philosophical matters, such as whether the stars were the same age as the earth.
Sometimes Malcolm became so interested in the latter sort of conversation that he'd rest his armful of empty glasses on the table and join in, but only after having listened intently. He was known to many of the scholars and other visitors, and was generously tipped, but becoming rich was never an aim of his; he took tips to be the generosity of providence, and came to think of himself as lucky, which did him no harm in later life. If he'd been the sort of boy who acquired a nickname, he would no doubt have been known as Professor, but he wasn't that sort of boy. He was liked when noticed, but not noticed much, and that did him no harm either.
Malcolm's other constituency lay just over the bridge outside the tavern, in the gray stone buildings set among green fields and neat orchards and kitchen gardens of the Priory of St. Rosamund. The nuns were largely self-sufficient, growing their vegetables and fruit, keeping their bees, sewing the elegant vestments they sold for keenly bargained gold, but from time to time there were errands a useful boy could run, or there was a ladder to be repaired under the supervision of Mr. Taphouse, the aged carpenter, or some fish to bring from Medley Pond a little way down the river. La Belle Sauvage was frequently employed in the service of the good nuns; more than once Malcolm had ferried Sister Benedicta to the Royal Mail zeppelin station with a precious parcel of stoles or copes or chasubles for the bishop of London, who seemed to wear his vestments very hard, for he got through them unusually quickly. Malcolm learned a lot on these leisurely voyages.

The Staff really is nice and helpful, they give you information and help for motorbike rental. Such a nice place for couples with/out kids. Close to secret beach. Really calm even if the beach in front of the hostel isn't clean enought. Whatever is plenty of nice beaches really close. I recommend truly!
Wish there was a sandy beach, but in walking distance of a sandy one. Staff were great very friendly and helpful!
My fiancee and I arrived to Niramon Resort for a quick getaway on Koh Phangan. Many of the other resorts in the area were booked, so we took our chance with Niramon. Overall, the value for the price seemed fair. The location of this hotel is truly beautiful, and the pool takes full advantage of this beauty. The room was big and comfortable. The only thing I would have liked more is for the AC to be stronger -- it felt it was too weak to cool the room below 26C. We visited Koh Phangan during the hottest time in Thailand, so perhaps that had something to do with it. Overall, our stay was satisfactory.
Only the rooms at the beach are great, but expensive. Staff is kind. The room is not cleaned during our 5 night stay, we had to change our own towels. Pool is nice.
Our stay was pleasant - this is a very quiet area and quite a distance from Thomgsala, Ban Tai and Haad Rin. I would only recommend staying here if you feel comfortable on a scooter, because it's not within walking distance of many shops, etc. We tried Snorkeling but the water was a little murky and there were not enough lights in the resort to lead the way down to our bungalow. Very dark! But on the one day that we stayed at home, it was very peaceful and the pool is nice and big. We didn't eat here at all so I can't comment on the food or prices.
Very pleasant. Bathrooms were dirty. Wood Floors on bungalows are spaced so don't drop anything. Other than that nice place.
Tons of mosquitoes at night. Boards on the floor of the bungalow had huge gaps so things can fall through to the ground below easily. Window panes didn't shut so the sea wind was blowing strongly all day through the window and I couldn't control it. No temperature control for the shower. Pool area was nice.

Even after the Patriots declined to pick up his 2015 option, there was still a while there that it seemed like New England would find a way to bring him back for a second season. But no, after two seasons away, Darrelle Revis is returning to the Jets in 2015, he agent announced on Tuesday evening.
Pending legal, @Revis24 has agreed to terms with the New York Jets #RevisIsland #nyjets
— Schwartz & Feinsod (@schwartzfeinsod) March 11, 2015
The Jets obviously still have a host of issues – they are the Jets, after all – especially that big glaring one at quarterback, though it's hard to argue that they didn't make a good deal of progress through free agency and trade. The secondary is greatly bolstered with the signing of Revis and Buster Skrine. They got Brandon Marshall for practically nothing.
The new deal for five years, $70 million overall with $39 million guaranteed. Not only is Revis one of the game's best but he's managed to keep getting teams to open their pocket books when he changes teams. If he reaches the end of the deal (probably not since he's about to turn 30) he'll have made more than $150 million in the NFL. Even if he only gets the guaranteed money, he's clearing $100 million.

Das Haus der sieben Laster ist ein denkmalgeschütztes Fachwerkhaus aus dem 16. Jahrhundert in der Altstadt von Limburg an der Lahn, dessen Fassade von Schnitzereien geziert wird, die allgemein hin als die sieben biblischen Laster Hochmut, Neid, Unmäßigkeit, Geiz, Wollust, Zorn und Trägheit  gedeutet werden.

Architektur
Das Erdgeschoss des auf drei Seiten freistehenden Hauses besteht aus Bruchstein, auf das 1567 eine Fachwerkkonstruktion aufgesetzt wurde, nachdem das vormals massive Haus teilweise eingestürzt war. Im Sockelbereich der zur Brückengasse hin gelegenen Seite sind die Balkenköpfe mit aufwändigen Schnitzereien verziert.

Geschichte des Gebäudes
Im Jahr 1679 wurde das Fachwerk vollständig erneuert, was neben historischen Aufzeichnungen auch dendrochronologische Untersuchungen belegen. 1735 gelangte das Haus in den Besitz eines Bau- und Werkmeisters, bevor es ab 1843 ein Farben- und Kolonialwarengeschäft und Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts ein Schuhgeschäft beherbergte. 1913 erfolgte die Freilegung des Fachwerks. Im Jahr 2001 erwarb es ein aus Schweden stammendes Ehepaar, restaurierte das Haus im Originalzustand und richtete ein kleines Kunstmuseum ein.

A long time ago I wrote two very funny posts which were on how to date geeks. Till date, those posts have got some of the highest hit counts out of all the posts I typed up.
I guess people have figured that hitting on a web page that talks about how to hit on a geek is perhaps a close approximation to hitting upon an idea on how to hit on a real geek.
All I can say is that no one would have found any practical dating advice on my blog. Yet, as a side effect, my follower count rose quite sharply since I published those posts.
I haven't written a single other post either on geeks or on dating. So I often wonder what happened to those readers who subscribed to my blog expecting more on geeks or at least more humorous writing. Were they disappointed?
My impatient mind has been jumping from topic to topic through the life of this blog, now writing about a memory triggered by something that happened, now noting my stray thought on some aspect of social media, now expressing my perspective on the city I live in or on a city I visited, now posting some pictures and now simply chatting with my readers.
Readers keep dropping by, showing their likes, leaving their comments. Many pass by silently. The material I publish here is broad and it attracts a broad range of readers. A variety of topics sets me free but what does it do for readers?
I suspect that some readers are college students, some are older reading when they have leisure. Some, I suspect, read on phones on their way to work or maybe before they go to sleep.
One of the important features that sets a blog apart from other genres of writing is that it is a dynamic form that not only has the capacity to change over time but also to incorporate readers' ideas in its own development. It can shape itself based on readers' reactions. One of the resolutions I made for the blog this year is to become a little more involved in the blogosphere and try to make this space a little more interactive.
I decided to begin the year with knowing a little bit more about you, about who you are and why you come here.
So reader, who are you? Have you written a post introducing yourself? Do you want to write one? What kinds of blogs do you read? Why do you blog? What first drew you to the blogosphere?
If you write a post especially in response to my curiosity and post a link below, I'd be honoured. If you already have a page that will lead me to you, do post a link below. Or you can simply write a few lines if you like.
I'll wait eagerly to see what you have to say.
Note: The post I talked about above is How to date a Geek man: Advice to non-geek women, not the one selected by WordPress below.
I can't remember how I found your blog, but I liked it right away. I don't always have to read it as much as I may like, but I read it because it feels very natural, real, and personal. I write an author blog where I talk about my writing, but I also talk about what I'm reading and lots of geek stuff…I missed your original geek post. Guess now is a good time to check it out.
Thank you for this – through your post and the subsequent comments, I have found a new blog to follow. It's surprisingly difficult to find other voices you connect to on the internet – or perhaps I just don't know where to look – but anyway, it's something to celebrate when you do.
I think I originally started blogging to 'build a platform' (for that day in the probably far-off future when I have a book for sale) and if I'm completely honest that's part of the reason I still do it but I think it's more about sharing with the world these days – thoughts, opinions, etc. These days I've noticed I tend to blog when I'm angry about something.
I follow your blog because you're thoughtful, what you write about is well thought out and makes me think, and you express it incredibly well. Often I'm in genuine awe of your posts.
Absolutely agree. And this is an honest assessment of oneself as a blogger.
I'm enjoying your blog. Mine is all over the map. Mostly I post things I've written with intent, but sometimes I just improvise, trying to make folks smile or laugh. It isn't very interactive, but I find myself enjoying the blogs that are. Maybe I'll do more of that. We'll see. Time is precious these days. Like you alluded to earlier in replies to this thread, life ain't a dress rehearsal.
I really appreciate your "like." It's always nice when someone smiles at something I've writtern.
Thank you, I do my best with my limited resources.
Yours was the sixth blog I began to follow after I became a "blogger". I found it through Freshly pressed, not knowing any other way of finding blogs. Now I hardly ever read anything featured there!
I must be in the same age group as mud fur and feathers who commented above.
It's nice everytime our paths cross suesconsideredtrifles.
I remember when those FP days were exciting. I too don't visit FP anymore both because it's not the default page when you log in and also because the quality and layout doesn't seem to be what it was before perhaps because WP has decided its purpose is not to become a magazine.
Sometimes like there just has to be a place to share perspectives, visual and oral. When your kids are grown and gone, and your spouse and the TV provide you with your only means of communication (except for the two cats and 6 birds )- where else can you turn except to blogging? I enjoy writing, love reading and hope to reach others who feel the same way. Prepare for some changes here, too! Thanks for the opportunity to express myself. Hope to hear from you.
That's a nice description of your life and may I say that even when you haven't reached that age, the creatures that you describe may turn out better companions than their human counterparts? 🙂 I'd read their blogs if they could write.
I think blogs change as their owners change. I'm not in the same place I was when I started my blog. I've changed some of my views and I'm prepared to reveal more of myself. I've changed my About page once. Maybe I should do it again.
Hello Miriam! I'm familiar with you and your blog of course!
You have a beautiful blog. I remember Assam. It's beautiful.
Thanks! 🙂 Have you been here?
I think I started following you after you 'liked' one of my posts. I have to admit, I'm not a regular reader of your blog, but an inspired one nonetheless. The best part about your writing, other than the obvious fluidity and wonderful language is that it instills a very positive feeling. It is not lofty or intimidating. It is not superficial either. It has a kind of profoundness that makes you feel at ease. That's why I stop by whenever I can. Keep writing.
Thanks for your feedback. I've often wondered if the "positive feeling," as you say, in my style, tends to veer towards superficiality. I'm more used to a more academic, "intellectual" style but if you say it works, I'll continue. . .
I definitely did not find you through your geek post! My first look at your blog made me want to come back for more. My blog is a lot of interpersonal writing. I am not sure if that is a good thing or not, but I do feel like my life experiences may help others. I have battled several medical issues and my son has too along with some depression. I try to place a positive spin on my life circumstances and let others know there is always hope. The benefit I get from your posts are that they help me be a better writer. Thank you.
I'm not 100% sure on why I started following you. Perhaps you came up as a suggestion. When I first came across your blog, I do remember laughing at something you wrote and how inspired it made me feel. You have a style of writing which is fresh and unhindered by outside influences which I liked, and this has kept me coming back for more. I keep reading you because of your humour and your questioning mind which in many ways resonates with mine.
When I first signed up on WP it was out of sheer curiosity and a place of new discovery. Initially, I thought that I'd give my hand a chance in writing, and seeing if I had a voice that was uniquely my own. I started off with an intention to discover my own voice (if I had one) and then I got too busy (work) and being in front of a PC for 8hrs, responding to emails and on occasion writing mundane government standard words, quashed any writing enthusiasm I had.
Now, I no longer have work as an excuse, having recently semi-retired from it. I've still yet to get inspired and find myself reading more and writing less, and each time I read another blog, I am in awe of the various styles that are expressed, and the clarity and seamless flow of words on the pages I read leave me feeling spell bound and wishing I had that kind of inspiration, motivation, drive and enthusiasm to write it down.
Nevertheless, you are entertaining and you are effortless to read. This is why I keep returning to your pages.
Thanks Gina. That's a great comment. Yes, many things will quash writing and it is indeed a challenge to find a voice amongst all the humdrum of daily life.
I am a new follower of yours, I think you liked one of my posts and so I looked into your blog and started following you. This was part of a conscious effort by me to start reading more blogs. So far I have really enjoyed backtracking through your posts and those of the other writers I am now following and observing the writing journey that so many are on. As I am the only person I know who writes a blog it's nice to see myself and my thoughts and ideas reflected in so many other people's blogs.
I was drawn to your drawing of a display picture on gravatar. First I thought the colours were awful. But anyway, I started reading your posts and it was an instant follow! Definitely one of the better bloggers out there. Glad I found this site… Oh I think my underlying passion to write made me want to blog, and boy is the community of the blogosphere excellent! I'm commenting from my smartphone but click "about" on http://thesydblog.com or http://esswhytech.com and you'll find some more answers! Peace!!!
Glad the awful colours brought you here!
Haha! It's different! But it got me here nevertheless!
OK, you asked……. big mistake!
Yours and photography blogs, particularly the ones who like to talk about 'how, when and where' they got that shot.
Really good short story [and not so short] blogs.
Blogs that write well about the places they come from.
Blogs that write well about the everyday lives they live.
Blogs that write well about ideas.
Blogs that like to write about writing.
I have been a photographer for a very long time and I like having a place where I can show my best and have them appreciated.
I love to write and posting the stories I write helps me to understand what works and what does not work. I need the feedback and my ego loves it when I get it right.
I wanted a place to carry on the work I had started with my first non-fiction book, and it grew from there.
****** That will teach you to ask such interesting questions.
On the contrary, I'm actually glad I asked and that you answered from Melbourne. Your pages seem fascinating at first glance. Will read more closely soon.
Visited your blog. Will drop by more often.
Hello! To find out more about me, you can take a glimpse at my blog, http://sowenswrites.com. I believe you've been there before, and that's how I ended up checking out your blog. I think interaction is one of the best things about blogging, and it's amazing to me that for the most part, WordPress is a space where I'm excited to read the comments on posts, rather than shying away from them. I've enjoyed the posts I've read from you, and am looking forward to continuing in the new year.
Thank you. I see that one of your jobs is in Napa Valley. I lived in that region sometime ago.
I follow you since a while. I enjoy your writing style and like the fact that you come from a foreign place (like me). This is why I reblogged one of your posts about being from India. It tied well with my own experiences. I will, I'm sure do it again at some point!
By the way, I missed your blog when you took a break a little while ago.
Cheers to you and your readers!
Loved this line in your "about" page: "Readers enjoy escaping the familiar for the unknown." We must think alike. My tomorrow's post is about escape fantasies.
Thanks for writing a whole post in response. I knew of two of your personalities (this one and Slo Man) but I didn't know you had two others. In some ways, that's like A Clown on Fire (http://clownonfire.com/). I learned a bit myself from the "What Kind of Blogs do you Read" section just now.
Hi there, Bottleworder. This is interesting! The visit rate of own blog is maintained by a piece I wrote on how to cure verrucas with tea tree oil. If I may, I might borrow your idea on dating (tongue in cheek of course) – something to the effect of "Dating the crusty older writer", perhaps, and see if I can boost things further – with my blog I mean.
As for me, I think I'm like you in that my blog is fairly eclectic. We write about whatever has inspired us. I enjoy the freedom of it, but like you I'm often surprised by what attracts the reader's eye the most. When I look at the list of blogs I follow, there's no clear pattern either – my interests are fairly broad, but it's the voice that attracts me. Interesting, witty, knowledgeable, stimulating – the kind of people you might like to meet in real life and have a conversation with. I find so many blogs are horribly sterile, consisting of farmed content, reblogs or loosely disguised attempts to sell me something. It's great to find one that's genuinely chatty, and makes me want to hold onto it by following.
Yes, I agree. I should feel that the blogger has a personality and a voice. Conversation – that's what I want!
"Genuinely chatty" is a great way to describe my corner of the 'net. I'm happy to see that you have eclectic tastes too.
I have to admit I forget how I came to be following your blog but I'm glad I did! I like reading a good mix of posts – single theme blogs get a bit dull for me after a while. I love your writing style (envy is really the word I should use). Feeling sorry I missed the geek posts so will seek them out!
My own blog is pretty much the random thoughts of a middle aged English woman, but often I talk about peace or poetry or projects, Sometimes I talk abut things that don't begin with P as well.
I hope you enjoy, I know I'm always happy to see a new post from you.
To a happy, healthy, and productive 2014!
I think I found your blog after visiting when you commented on mine (I don't remember when, but it's been a while now.) I ended up subscribing because I like your 'voice'. I like a variety of topics (though not really dating…I've been married for nearly seventeen years.) I have 2 school-aged kids, but I don't seek out 'mommy blogs' – I generally like things that make me laugh, make me think, or make me wish I'd had the insight to write it.
My blog is a mixed bag, sometimes funny, other times serious, some poetry, lots of flash fiction, some reflections on life. I've often wondered why people subscribe or come back to read it, but I've never thought to actually ask!
I feel like I know you because I follow your blog. Enjoyed the "about" page.
I read…because I could not read until I was in the 6th grade. IT IS A Privilege to be an avid reader today…for it paves the way for growth and knowledge. I read you because Like ME when you write, YOU are present in the article. Not meaning the topic, your personality, your opinion, your view, your personality, YOUR PIECES of the PUZZLE are revealed. I write to reveal those pieces I have found along my own crazy walk in this thing called Life. Great topic and it is nice to meet you.
I agree. "Life is too short not to have dessert first." Thanks for revealing a bit about yourself and why you visit.
I don't think I read your posts on geeks, but I'm married so they wouldn't have helped unless they would apply to being married to a geek!
I am 57, married with three grown children, and a a clinical social worker in private practice. I started my blog as a project to help me be more creative and as an adventure.
Like you, I wonder who reads my blog and why. As far as what blogs I read,the best I can say is that I seem to follow blogs that speak to me, where I can get a sense of who the person really is, and if I think I might like to know them in real life.
This was a great idea for a post; hope you will get some interesting replies!
A brief introduction to me.
I am fascinated by the fact that you pursued a career in law and IT and kept your reading and writing as an additional pursuit, something a little bit more than a hobby. I think in many circumstances this is wise. There is nothing so disillusioning as a hobby turning into work.
I am actually writing full time at the moment, but might go back to Law or IT in the future.
I like your blog because of your varying content and presentation. The NY pictures tugged at my heartstrings, and, as an English and Speech teacher, your blogs on writing are most interesting to me. I am a new blogger, and I'm eclectic in my choices, from philosophy to humor to travel to remembrances, so the people I follow,and who are kind enough to follow me, are constant sources of discovery and surprise and enjoyment.
I read your "about" page. You seem to have lived in a lot of places, all fascinating to me. You seem to have shuttled between NY and CA which is something common between us.
You are right Mr. Bhatia! It's not easy being an armchair blogger. Keep writing for the "inherent charm in composing a piece"!
Uh…can I just say Ditto to nancytinarirunswrites? I agree with everything she said!
That's why I too decided to start writing the daily–there is no point waiting for the universe to stop and stare at a phenomenal event that one might make happen one day–while all the little stories bloom and fade right around us uncaptured and unsung.
I might take you up on your offer and write a post about me and why I'm writing but I might hold off on that for a while. I suppose that the About page on http://nofacilities.com can suffice for now.
For a short answer to one of your questions, I think I follow people based on their writing style. Even if the topic is of no or little interest, if the person can explain it well or wrap it in an interesting story, I'm likely to keep reading. That is how I try to write too.
I read your blog because you're an excellent writer and you show your personality in your writing. I'm interested in many of the same topics as you write about: the act of blogging itself, the relationships we form through our writing on the Internet, and the technical aspects of good writing. I like the reflective tone of many of your pieces and the way you seek to actively engage readers.
I can't remember how I first found your blog–maybe it was because you "liked" one of my posts. I would say the main thing that made me follow you and continue to read many of your posts, regardless of your topic, is the quality of your writing. Thank you!
Thank you so much. You seem to have followed my blog pretty closely. I value my reflective pieces a lot but in the process of writing them, I do end up thinking a lot about writing itself. In my daily life, I'm often accused of talking to myself, of asking questions aloud and then answering them myself–an activity that's seemingly pointless. As far as speculating about writing is concerned, I thought why waste those thoughts? Put them on the blog.
I love how you say that "our lives are packed with stories" on your blog. I am honoured that someone who trained for the Olympics and had the drive to go back to school later in life (as I grow older I realize that the latter might require as much perseverance and courage as the former) has been reading my blog. Thank you.

Entrepreneur's development path
Development discussion
Competence mapping
Doing good and the importance of work
During this spring many have thought of own work importance and have compared own work to that of so-called critical areas. Definitions of areas critical to society are an external signal of the importance and significance of work in society. However, the longing for meaning is a very human need. How do we, in our work, feel that our work is important?
Researcher Anu Järvensivu has identified the longing for the importance of work as one of the motivating factors that can get a person to do multiple jobs in parallel or alternately. We have also found that many are looking for importance in their work. We have studied how self-employed and micro-entrepreneurs work to preserve the experience of the importance of work in everyday life.
Entrepreneurs have several ways to make their work important for themselves. In this blog post, we highlight helping others as one of the ways. In previous studies, it has been named as one of the basic pillars of the importance of work. The feeling that one can be helpful or useful to other people makes many people find their work very meaningful. Helping can be done either directly through one's work, or the work can do something for the common good on a larger scale.
The entrepreneurs we surveyed said they treat customers as people whose trust they gain by entering a customer relationship and whom they can help through their work. They advised their customers on the just-right service or product. The home service entrepreneur described how he gets to know his clients and how to support them. The coaching entrepreneur spoke of the experiences of joy as the customer progressed toward their own goals. The entrepreneur in the welfare sector, on the other hand, found it rewarding when he was able to direct customers forward to his colleagues, so they could get the assistance they need. All these ways of helping supported entrepreneurs' sense that their work is important. The trust showed by others and the opportunity to help others have shown entrepreneurs how important their work is and gave a feeling of success.
Helping others discover the meaning and good in their lives has provided a degree-deeper way to experience the importance of one's work. This deeper level of helping others required empathy and ability to listen to others — the super-skills of modern working life. The coaching entrepreneur described the goal of his work as helping the client toward inner change and a good life. The beauty entrepreneur described this more casually as compassion to customer's joys and sorrows. An entrepreneur providing staff development services said that his career has been driven by a desire to influence and bring change for the better to the organizations he works for.
Realizing the importance of your work is a happy and desirable thing. However, overemphasizing the purpose of the work may mask the drawbacks. An entrepreneur may be so anxious to serve others that he is underpricing his work, which can lead to livelihood difficulties. Helping others can also threaten your well-being if you focus on supporting your clients' well-being at the expense of your endurance. Some of the entrepreneurs had been disappointed to find that, despite their good intentions, they had failed to bring lasting change in the direction they desired.
If the burden of doing good becomes too heavy, it may be worth changing perspectives.
Work certainly doesn't feel as meaningful every day, and not all tasks are inspiring in meaningful and important work either. Sometimes you can permit yourself to think of work coldly as "just work," and maybe invest in other areas of life to do good to your fellow human beings or the world.

The filestructure looks like this:
C:\Temp\raw_data\2018-09\Securitylog\Securitylog_2018-09-14_13-30.evtx
The problem is, that the Get-ChildItem only handles the first level. Every level below the first one seems to be ignored.
I tried using the -Recurse parameter without success. I don't receive any errors, so I believe the syntax is correct. The codesample is given below.
$out = New-Object System.Text.StringBuilder
$out.AppendLine("ServerName,EventID,TimeCreated,UserName,File_or_Folder,AccessMask")
$ns = @{e = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event"}
Get-ChildItem "C:\temp\raw_data" -Recurse | ForEach-Object {
    {
        $evts = Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{Path=$_;id="4663"} -Oldest
        foreach ($evt in $evts) {
            $xml = $evt.ToXml()
            $SubjectUserName = Select-Xml -Xml $xml -Namespace $ns -XPath "//e:Data[@Name='SubjectUserName']/text()" |
                               Select-Object -ExpandProperty Node |
                               Select-Object -ExpandProperty Value
            $ObjectName = Select-Xml -Xml $xml -Namespace $ns -XPath "//e:Data[@Name='ObjectName']/text()" |
                          Select-Object -ExpandProperty Node |
                          Select-Object -ExpandProperty Value
            $AccessMask = Select-Xml -Xml $xml -Namespace $ns -XPath "//e:Data[@Name='AccessMask']/text()" |
                          Select-Object -ExpandProperty Node |
                          Select-Object -ExpandProperty Value
            $out.AppendLine("$($svr),$($evt.id),$($evt.TimeCreated),$SubjectUserName,$ObjectName,$AccessMask")
            Write-Host $svr
            Write-Host $evt.id, $evt.TimeCreated, $SubjectUserName, $ObjectName,$AccessMask
        }
    }
}
$out.ToString() | Out-File -FilePath "C:\Temp\X4663Events.csv"

I have no idea, why no file is processed. The file will be created, but it is empty execpt for the headline.

A: It doesn't have to be that hard.  Typical powershell looks more like this.  Build an object, then export to csv.  Know what you're doing, and verify each piece.
$evts = get-winevent security -MaxEvents 3

$objs = foreach ($evt in $evts) {
  [xml]$xml = $evt.toxml()

  $subjectusername = $xml.event.EventData.data |
    where name -eq subjectusername |
    select -expand '#text'
  $subjectdomainname = $xml.event.EventData.data |
    where name -eq subjectdomainname |
    select -expand '#text'

  [pscustomobject]@{
    SubjectUserName = $subjectusername
    SubjectDomainName = $subjectdomainname
  }

}

ISLAMABAD, Aug 7 (APP): Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz MNA Perveen Masood Bhatti said on Sunday that some elements wanted to destabilize Pakistan politically and economically.
Talking to APP here, the PML-N legislator said that PML-N economic team led by Finance Minister Ishaq Dar has revived the economy, but Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman Imran Khan wanted to reverse the landmark achievements achieved by the country during past three years.
She said that Imran Khan wanted to become prime minister of Pakistan even at the cost of damaging national interests.
Perveen said that at time when the nation was preparing to celebrate the Independence day, Imran Khan and his cronies were planning to launch protest movement.
The masses had rejected the leaders like Imran Khan in 2013 elections and the Local Government elections due to thier negative politics, she added.
Replying to a question, she said that India was committing worst human rights violations in Occupied Kashmir but the international community had not taken any notice.
She urged the United Nations to take measures for grant of right to self-determination as promised by its resolutions on Kashmir.
Perveen said that Pakistani electronic media was giving prominent coverage to Indian atrocities in IOK, since martyrdom of Burhan Wani last month.
To a question she said that Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) during past few months had taken measures to stop indecent content on the electronic media, which was good development.


There was more than one occasion when they looked doomed, destined to crash with a thud and fail to capitalize on a golden chance to capture the imagination of casual basketball fans in the area.
Two weeks ago, the Nets were considered out of the playoff picture, too far behind the final spot with three teams to leapfrog over. But here they are with eight games remaining, in a virtual tie with the Heat for seventh place in the Eastern Conference. They got there Wednesday night by winning their season-best fifth consecutive game, edging the Knicks, 100-98, at Madison Square Garden.
Don't call it a comeback. Just a surge at the perfect time.
That's what makes this stretch run all the more impressive, a surge the Nets extended in cardiac fashion to cap a four-game sweep of their crosstown rivals for the first time since 2006-07.
Lopez tipped in his own miss for the winning basket with two seconds left. The 7-footer had worked a pick-and-roll with Deron Williams, whose layup attempt rimmed out. Lopez's clutch play lifted the Nets to their eighth win in nine games.
Rookie Cleanthony Early's three-point attempt from beyond the key at the buzzer hit nothing but air, thwarting a bid by the Knicks (14-61).
Williams scored 12 of his 26 points in the third quarter for the Nets. Andrea Bargnani led the Knicks with 22 points.
Although the Nets are locked with Miami for seventh place, the Heat holds the head-to-head tiebreaker 3-1, technically placing the Nets (34-40) in eighth.
The undermanned Knicks did their best to put a kink in the Nets' playoff push.
In winning nine of their last 11 games, a record that's second only to the 10-1 mark the Warriors have compiled during the same stretch, the Nets have found their mojo. They've overcome injuries and flawlessly incorporated a new piece in Thaddeus Young. Lopez is playing as well as he has all season, no longer searching for his role and shot within the offense.
They've developed mental fortitude, and fighting through to win as they've done in their last two games can only provide more of a psychological boost.
Given their upcoming schedule, a strong conviction is paramount. Eight of their final nine games are against playoff teams, and in the next week alone the Nets take on the Eastern Conference-leading Hawks twice and square off against the Raptors, Trail Blazers and the Wizards.

CSA Reports | Platinum Drivers Inc.
Accident preventability evaluations are meant to help drivers avoid trucking accidents, which affect a company's bottom line. By evaluating a driver's practical knowledge about accidents–and how to avoid them–trucking companies can benefit with fewer delayed shipments, less damage to vehicles and cargo, and, of course, fewer employee injuries. Safety matters, and accident preventability evaluations cover a whole bunch of topics related to trucking safety.
Smart truckers are safer truckers. They need to be trained regarding common road hazards–and how to avoid them. Defensive driving techniques come in handy for many truckers, as they need to do evasive action options, look for escape routes, and anticipate what other drivers on the road may do. It is a point of pride for a trucker to do well on accident preventability evaluations, showing other truckers that he or she is doing their job well. A trucker who is continually causing accidents won't be a trucker for long.
In order to prevent accidents, several things can be evaluated. Does the trucker use his or her mirrors properly? Does he or she understand the effects of black ice? Does the trucker know and take to heart the importance of leaving a "safety gap" around their vehicle and how to deal with "no zones"' or blind spots?
Accident preventability evaluations are like school tests to make sure truckers know–and follow–the rules of the road and then some. Since most trucks are big and heavy and long, truckers need to essentially set the best example of following safety standards on the roads and highways of America in order to prevent as many accidents as possible.

APPEARS IN News Guns
Arsenal Inc. SGL-31 5.45×39 mm
by Keith Wood - Thursday, June 21, 2012
The 5.45x39mm flanked by the 5.56 NATO (left) and 7.62x39 mm (right). In its original loading, the 5.45x39 mm used a 52.9-grain bullet that achieved 2,900 fps at the muzzle. Heavier bullets up to 64 grains are currently used.
Irony is a curious thing. Just as shooters and writers in the U.S. were espousing the superiority of the 7.62x39 mm cartridge over the 5.56 NATO based on each cartridge's alleged performance in Vietnam, the Soviet Union was working to develop a cartridge of its own that would mimic the carrying capacity and ballistic properties of the 5.56 NATO. The result of this smallbore arms race was the development of the 5.45x39 mm cartridge and its host weapon, the AK-74. The 5.45x39 mm uses a 52.9-grain bullet launched at a muzzle velocity of around 2,900 fps, and it proved to be an effective cartridge in the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in the 1980s.
The current popularity of AK-74 type rifles in the U.S. market was driven by political and market forces. Ten years ago, no one wanted a 5.45x39 mm. The ammunition and component shortages that followed the 2008 election made 5.56 NATO and 7.62x39 mm ammo scarce and expensive, while 5.45x39 mm remained largely available and relatively cheap. Many shooters purchased rifles in 5.45x39 mm, not because they were attracted to the ballistic capabilities of the round, but because they could get ammo without selling any organs. Many training schools saw a rise in students showing up to classes with 5.45x39 mm AKs—they left their "go-to" guns at home with their coveted ammo stashes. The result was shooters, by accident or necessity, suddenly realized these were great rifles and the 5.45x39 mm is a great cartridge.
Arsenal Inc.'s SGL-31 rifle is about as close as an American civilian can come to owning a true AK-74. These rifles are made in Russia in the Izhmash factory as "sporters," and are then imported by Arsenal in Las Vegas. Once they get to Vegas, the rifles are outfitted with several U.S. made parts, not only to keep them compliant with federal law, but also to mimic the outward appearance of the Russian military arm. The rifles feature a stamped Russian receiver, Russian chrome-lined barrels and a U.S.-made anti-slap trigger. In my experience, Arsenal AK's are far superior to bargain variants on the market that have often been hastily cobbled together from surplus parts kits.
These AKs are viable and effective rifles right out of the box, but there are a few modifications that can drastically increase the capability of an AK without trying to turn it into an AR. From a practical accuracy standpoint, the most glaring shortcoming of the AK-series rifle is its short sight radius, compounded by the use of open sights (an aperture sight can't be properly employed due to the rear sight position). With today's lightweight, high-quality optics, the most effective way to address the sight issue is the addition of a long-eye-relief optic that can be mounted forward of the receiver—out of the way of hands manipulating the working parts. The Ultimak Scout Mount is a great way to mount an optic down low, so the shooter can maintain a good cheek weld. It replaces the factory gas tube with one equipped with a Picatinny rail.
The Colorado Shooting Sports Lightning Lever allows the shooter to manipulate the safety lever of any AK without breaking contact with the firing grip.
In an effort to keep this rifle light and slick, I chose the Aimpoint Micro T-1 with a 2-MOA dot as my optic. This setup is lightning-fast and allows for easy hits on man-size steel targets out past 300 yards. The heat transferred through the Ultimak mount can be too much for many optics, but the little Aimpoint has never quit on me.
AKs get a lot of complaints about their ergonomics, and they certainly require a different manual of arms than many Western shooters are used to. My biggest issue with the AK platform is, to manipulate the charging handle or the safety/selector lever, the shooter has to either remove his hand from the firing grip or reach over or under the receiver with the non-firing hand. The AK Lighting Lever from Colorado Shooting Sports solves this problem using a small horizontal tab on the safety lever that allows the shooter to engage and disengage the safety using just the trigger finger—the shooter's position on the grip is therefore maintained. Other additions included a U.S. Palm AK Battle Grip that is larger and more comfortable than the factory grip and an excellent two-point bungee sling from Original Special Operations Equipment.
With the improved ergonomics, all the SGL-31 lacked was a weaponlight. I used a Vltor Scout Mount to secure a SureFire G2X tactical light to the rail. This light's tail cap on/off switch can be operated using the thumb of the weak hand, yet otherwise stays out of the way. With a proper sling, a well-mounted optic, a comfortable grip, a white light and an enhanced safety, this rifle loses nothing to more advanced designs while maintaining the legendary AK reliability. I have used this setup over the course of several months both on the practice range and in classes, and it has been 100 percent reliable. I have never felt handicapped, despite the fact that I'm an AR guy at heart.
The best part about this rifle is that it chews through cheap and dirty surplus ammo I wouldn't dare shoot in my ARs. Hornady also loads 5.45x39 mm ammo, and it is excellent alternative to the Eastern European sources.
The Arsenal SGL-31 uses an AK-74 type muzzle break, which is very effective when combined with the high-velocity 5.45x39 mm round.
This SGL-31 is plenty accurate for its purpose, consistently placing rounds in the credit card-sized "A" box of a standard USPSA target at 100 yards. The combination of the efficient AK-74 muzzle brake and the small-caliber round make for a very fast combination, producing very little recoil or muzzle rise.
The AR versus AK and 7.62x39 mm versus 5.56 NATO/5.45x39 mm debates will rage on among posers for decades to come, but the reality is all of the above have proven themselves as viable fighting rifles and cartridges around the globe. The SGL-31 provides shooters with a high-quality firearm in an alternative cartridge that became quite appealing when the price of 5.56 NATO doubled and tripled. With a few accessories, the performance capability of these AK-74-style rifles can be taken to a whole new level.

Q: Guys I am new to python, can please help me understand why my code is giving me "none" as output? def deal_card():

    cards = [11, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10]
    card = random.choice(cards)
    return card

user_cards = []

computer_cards = []

for _ in range(2):

    user_cards.append(deal_card())
    computer_cards.append(deal_card())

draw_another_card = input("Type 'y' to get another card, type 'n' to pass : ")

if draw_another_card == "y":

    new_user_cards = user_cards.append(deal_card())
    new_computer_cards = computer_cards.append(deal_card())
    print(new_user_cards)

when I print new_user_cards, it shows none. I don't understand why, I googled a lot but couldn't get any answers.
The random function is from replit.
I would really like to what is going wrong in the above code!

A: In addition to the comments of @ThierryLathuille and @Sujay.
If you want the new_user_card and new_computer_card values, you can:
Replace:
    new_user_cards = user_cards.append(deal_card())
    new_computer_cards = computer_cards.append(deal_card())

By:
    new_user_card = deal_card()  # without plural because there is only one
    user_cards.append(new_user_card)
    new_computer_card = deal_card()  # without plural because there is only one
    computer_cards.append(new_computer_card)

Or:
    user_cards.append(deal_card())
    new_user_card = user_cards[-1]  # last item of the list
    computer_cards.append(deal_card())
    new_computer_card = computer_cards[-1]  # last item of the list
