Q: How to add a search button action in autocomplete search I'm having problem in one issue. Blogger autocomplete search. I'm novice in programming. I want to add a button in the bottom which will work as a search submit / action button.
Here's my code:

<form id="searchForm" action="/search">
  <input autocomplete="off" name="q" placeholder="Search" value="" />
</form>

<button class="clear-text hidden">×</button>

I want to add a button at the bottom of result div or section, which Will work as submit / search button. By clicking people can go to search results.
If anyone know, please help me.

A: You can show the code with snippets so people can better understand your question.
As for your question, the code that adds a button is already available where you shared it. It was a script that memorized after 9 recordings and added the results when you said show more. You put it in the comment line. With a small change, you can update it as a button that leads to the page you want as follows.

Q: Tag questions following that-clauses Can you explain the difference between the tag questions in these two sentences, only one referencing the initial agent?

*

*John thinks I will help them with that work, doesn't he?

*I think everybody likes ice-cream, don't they?
Are there any rules about these questions? Is it connected to the word "think"? Are there that type of verbs?

A: By using tag question, a speaker wants to confirm whether his or her assertion is ok or not. Of the sentence 'I think every body likes ice-cream' speaker is 'I' and assertion is 'everybody likes ice-cream'. So we should add tag question to 'everybody likes ice-cream' and the answer might be''....., don't they?'
Of the sentence 'John thinks I will help them' speaker cannot be John, and total sentence is an assertion. So we should add tag question to the main clause 'John thinks' and the answer might be '....., doesn't he?'

A:
John thinks that life exists on Venus, doesn't he?

shows the basic (simplified) form of the first example. The speaker is asking for confirmation of what John actually thinks.

John thinks that life exists on Venus, doesn't it?

has the wrong form for a tag-question. You'd need a separate sentence for this abrupt change of topic:

John thinks that life exists on Venus.... It does, doesn't it?

..................

I think everybody likes ice-cream, don't I?

is of the same form, but unlikely (though not impossible). There are acceptable senses, but the surface one is the speaker asking the listener to confirm (in a reaffirmation sense) what the speaker thinks ... not too likely.

I think everybody likes ice-cream, don't they?

is however available, but with the idiomatic sense

I think we can take it for read that everybody likes ice-cream.

It's really making an assertion / adding emphasis rather than asking for confirmation. A tag rhetorical question?

A: Just a quibble:  If you don't want to say I shall, then how about simply I'll?
OK, the questions:
1.
Expects is more precise for this sense:
John expects me to help them with that work, doesn't he?
or
John expects I'll help them with that work, doesn't he?
2.
"I think everybody likes ice-cream, [doesn't he?]"
Use I think or don't they?/[doesn't he?] but not both, which would be redundant because they both signal an opinion.
I think everybody likes ice-cream.
or
Everybody likes ice-cream, doesn't he?
(I'm using the old convention of default masculine pronoun here.  The current PC lexicon continues to play havoc with noun/pronoun-verb agreement.)
A statement that begins with  I think (that)... is non-debatable, because no one can argue that you're not thinking what you say you're thinking, unless he claims to be a mind reader.  I think (that)... is a good habit because it makes the statement less assertive or confrontational.  Of course, the form may not matter for some statements:
I think you're an idiot.  (Just my opinion)
You're an idiot, aren't you? (Just a question)
You're an idiot. (Just stating a fact)
...will probably get the same response.

Comet Jacques (C/2014 E2) now within small telescope range
Comet Jacques (C/2014 E2), a newly discovered comet has now brightened to within small telescope range and should reach naked-eye brightness by the end of July. Based on the current light-curve, Jacques is predicted to peak at magnitude +4 and become a fine sight in the morning sky when seen from the Northern Hemisphere later this year.
When discovered on March 13, 2014 by Cristovao Jacques, Eduardo Pimentel and Joao Ribeiro de Barros, the comet was a feeble magnitude +14.7. It's currently heading towards perihelion on July 2nd when it will pass 0.66 AU (99 million kilometres or 61 million miles) from the Sun. Closest approach to Earth occurs on August 28th when Jacques passes 0.56 AU (84 million kilometres or 52 million miles) from our planet.
Location and star chart
Jacques is currently moving in a northwestern direction just east of beautiful Orion. The comet spends almost all of May weaving slowly through the faint constellation of Monoceros except on the 12th when it briefly cuts into neighbouring Canis Minor. It's predicted that Jacques will increase from magnitude +8.4 on May 1st to magnitude +6.9 by months end. This puts the comet within the range of small telescopes and large binoculars, although too faint to be seen with the naked eye.
For Northern Hemisphere observers, Jacques appears low down above the western horizon after sunset during the first half of the month. The comet is then quickly lost to the bright glare of the Sun before re-appearing in the morning sky at the end of July; hopefully bright enough to be visible to the naked eye.
From southern and equatorial latitudes, Jacques is well placed in the early evening sky during May. The comet is visible reasonable high up towards the west after sunset. It then passes perihelion on July 2nd after which it won't be visible from the Southern Hemisphere until early September.
The finder chart below shows the positions of Jacques from May 7, 2014 to June 3, 2014.

What Adam and Eve Can Teach Us About Love
Adam and Eve committing original sin, detail from The Virgin of Victory, 1496, by Andrea Mantegna (1431-1506), tempera on canvas, 280x166 cm.
By Bruce Feiler
Bruce Feiler is the author of six bestseller, including Walking the Bible. This piece is adapted from his latest book, The First Love Story: Adam, Eve, and Us.
In a groundbreaking address to the American Psychological Association in 1998, Martin Seligman called for the creation of "positive psychology," a reoriented science that focused less on individual's defects and more on their successful qualities — optimism, hardiness and the capacity for growth. The explosion of research into happiness and mindfulness that followed brought renewed attention to timeless thinkers like Confucius, Mencius and Marcus Aurelius.
But even this welcome attention to the past missed what may be the signature example of positive psychology in the ancient world. Adam and Eve are near-perfect role models for the healthy, resilient, loving relationship we all say we crave.
I spent the last few years traveling in the footsteps of history's first couple, from the Garden of Eden in Iraq to the Sistine Chapel to Mae West's Hollywood, trying to figure out what the first relationships can teach us about relationships today.
What I found is that Adam and Eve introduced the idea of love into the West. They were the first to grapple — sometimes successfully, other times not — with the central mystery of being alive: being un-alone.
Yet instead of celebrating this achievement, history has blamed them for bringing sin, lust, even death into the world. This is the greatest character assassination ever.
More important, it's allowed us to overlook that the earliest figures to grapple with a long-term relationship embody the exact qualities that the latest research suggests we all need to follow. So what can Adam and Eve teach us about love?
1. The Power of Connectivity.
A seminal findings of positive psychology is that relationship are central to well-being. George Valliant, who ran the famed Grant Study of 268 men at Harvard, said the 75 years and $20 million expended point to "a straightforward five-word conclusion: 'Happiness is love. Full stop.'"
At the same time, the biggest threat to happiness is feeling isolated, left out, alone. Those with higher rates of loneliness have higher rates of depression, anxiety, and hostility, along with increased rates of dying from heart disease, cancer, and every other cause of death studied. Social isolation is on par with high blood pressure, obesity, lack of exercise, and smoking as a risk factor for illness and early death.
Why? John Cacioppo of the University of Chicago has shown that being lonely triggers cellular changes in the body that make the immune system less able to protect vital organs.
The first thing God says about human beings in the Bible, after creating Adam, is "It's not right for humans to be alone." Hebrew Scripture got there 3,000 years before modern science. From Eve's risky reach for knowledge to the unbearable pain of losing a child at the hand of another, the first couple are constantly wrestling with loneliness.
God clearly wants them to find refuge in each other. The aching question: Can they find a way?
2. The Need for Autonomy.
Another pillar of psychology is that being emotionally healthy requires a high degree of self-directedness. Edward Deci, of the University of Rochester and the founder of this line of thinking, told me that hundreds of studies across culture, gender and age have shown that people prefer being motivated from within and need to feel autonomous.
This, too, is a major theme of Adam and Eve. The two begin life crazy for each other. Eve is "the one," Adam enthuses. But Eve craves independence, wanders off and eats the fruit. Since the text says she gains knowledge with this act, Deci thinks she's seeking more meaning. "For Eve, eating the fruit appears to be an autonomous choice."
The same applies to Adam, who given the option to eat, chooses companionship over duty. "He makes the autonomous decision to be with Eve," Deci said.
Only when Adam and Eve face death alone can they face life together. "Learning to be oneself," wrote Thomas Merton, "means learning to die in order to live." Only when they fall from grace can they fully fall in love with each other.
3. The Importance of Co-Narration.
The great Swiss child psychologist Piaget coined the phrase "collective monologue" to describe how preschoolers play, meaning they gather together but talk only to themselves. Love is the opposite of this. It's "collective dialogue." Two voices construct a shared story.
Creating this shared story — what psychologists call "co-narration" — is the last great quality of romantic love, and the one Adam and Eve are most responsible for introducing. From the moment God divides them in two, they alone are responsible for writing their own narrative. Theirs is the first joint byline.
This need to author your own intermingled experience is the final lesson from the oldest couple: Love is a story we tell with another person. It's co-creation through co-narration.
And it's a reminder that sometimes the timeliest wisdom comes from timeless sources. Adam and Eve are the first love story. The story we need today.

Families of students will be once again be welcomed on to SAE campus this Wednesday April 4, from 12 - 6pm for our Annual Whānau Day.
After last year's successful Whānau Day, SAE Creative Media Institute Auckland will once again open its doors to the families of SAE students.
Whānau day is a time dedicated exclusively for families to come into our studios to experience what goes on first-hand. Classes will be running as usual, which will give students a chance to demonstrate what they are learning and give their whānau an insight into the spaces in which they spend so much of their time.
There will also be a chance for all visiting whānau to meet the staff and share some light kai in the student hangout zone affectionately called JJ's.
Dr Suzette Major, campus director says SAE staff are thrilled that the success of last years Whānau Day has meant we are able to offer this rare glimpse into everyday life at SAE again. Students often ask if they can bring their parents, partner or children to look around campus – this can be difficult on most days, which is why we decided to devote a day for them to visit.
As stated by Lani Purkis of Student Support, "having whānau support throughout their time of study plays a vital part in our students' success, by welcoming the families on to campus we invite them to become part of the students' study story. I would love the opportunity to meet all the parents, sisters, brothers and kids of our students next Wednesday the 4th of April".

Making sense of post-baccalauréat options in France
July 7 is the date when final-year lycée students will know whether they have passed their baccalauréat – and for many this will finalise a place for further study.
Making sense of post-baccalauréat options in France. Image drawn by Perry Taylor.
Bac results will be available at this link: tinyurl.com/y8zcjyzk. The only selection requirement for further education, at any French university, is a bac (any level), though popular subjects such as law can require an interview or test. Competitive selection, as exists in the UK, does not happen and around 60% of students starting courses do not complete the degree and switch courses or drop out.
Around half of students opt for the public university system, where tuition is free and the only cost is an enrollment fee of around €300. Even that is waived if you are eligible for a grant to help with living costs. It is not a campus system and students need to be motivated and self-disciplined, as a lot of personal work is required.
The effects of Covid-19 on exams
This year, the end-of-year bac exams were cancelled due to Covid-19 so most students will already have a good idea of their results as they are based on test marks and reports. By now, the majority should have been offered and accepted a place in one of the many post-bac options, which they will have applied for through the Parcoursup platform.
For those who have not received an offer, there is a clearing system. Until September 10, students can add 10 new choices for courses which are still not full.
Read more: what does end to quarantine mean for France-UK travel?
Post-bac options
After the bac results, they can also ask via Parcoursup for help from the Commission académique d'accès à l'enseignement supérieur, which will help find suitable places still available. However, for most, the application procedure begins in January of the final (terminale) year. Before that, students should research into available courses as there is a wide range, including different professional qualifications, universities and Grandes Ecoles.
The government says the new bac introduced in 2018 is designed to prepare students better for further education and promises more careers advice during the lycée years. Options for professional courses include the two-year Brevet de Technicien Supérieur (BTS) studied in lycées and the two-year Diplôme Universitaire de Technologie (DUT), studied at university but in lycée-style classes, which is to be replaced in 2021 by a new three-year Bachelor Universitaire de Technologie (BUT).
For craft skills, such as costume design, glass-blowing and carpentry, there are Brevets des Métiers d'Art (BMA), often studied within lycées. There are then the Ecoles Spécialisées, which can be public or private and cover subjects such as engineering, politics, architecture, journalism, art, commerce and speech therapy. All have different entrance requirements, durations and diplomas. Included in these are the Grandes Ecoles, regarded as prestigious establishments.

Tuitions and gap years
In public institutions, tuition is free. Private school fees range from a couple of thousand to several thousand euros a year. Though the gap year idea is not as big a part of the French culture as in many Anglophone countries, it is possible to take a year out. One increasingly popular way to have a break from the classroom and consider what career you would like in the future is to sign up for the Service Civique. It is open to 16-25-year-olds and is organised voluntary work, mostly in France but also overseas.
A mission lasts from six to 12 months, with a minimum of 24 hours a week. Volunteers are given a grant of €580 a month to help cover basic living costs. There are opportunities to help elderly people, work in schools, set up cultural events, give environmental advice, or work on heritage sites. Service Civique has existed for 10 years and is growing in popularity. In 2018, 140,200 young people took part.
A study showed that most human resources managers see it as a positive addition to a CV (service-civique.gouv.fr).
It is not fully clear what effect Brexit will have on post-bac studies. For anyone resident in France by December 31, their right to study in France will continue on the same terms as other domestic students.
After Brexit, it is likely these rights will continue for anyone with a residency card. Anyone who is not regarded as resident and who wants to sign up for university will have to pay a higher inscription fee but tuition will remain free.
The higher enrollment fee for 2019/20 was €2,770 a year, but this has been challenged by the Conseil Constitutionnel, which claims access to higher education should remain accessible to all. Anyone regarded as an EU student studying in the UK who is there before December 31 will remain eligible for home fee status – the same cost as for UK students. The fee and loan status of EU students starting from 2021 onwards in the UK is still to be confirmed.

(back row) R Dellums of CA, L Stokes of OH, and C C. Diggs, Jr., of MI.
As the number of African Americans serving in Congress grew, a long-desired movement to form a more unified organization among black legislators coalesced. When Charles C. Diggs, Jr., of Michigan entered the House of Representatives in 1955, he joined black Members William Dawson of Illinois and Adam Clayton Powell—the largest delegation of African Americans on Capitol Hill since Reconstruction. "In Congress, there was little, if any communication between Dawson and Powell," Diggs noted. "Their styles were different. In terms of exercise between them, there was not any." Diggs keenly felt the isolation endured by black Members due to their small numbers in Congress and, in some cases, an inability to connect on a personal level. Frustrated that black Representatives lacked a forum to discuss common concerns and issues, Diggs proposed the organization of the Democratic Select Committee (DSC) at the opening of the 91st Congress (1969–1971), maintaining that the DSC would fill a significant void by fostering the exchange of information among the nine African Americans serving in Congress, as well as between black Representatives and House leadership. "The sooner we get organized for group action, the more effective we can become," Diggs remarked. The informal group held sporadic meetings that were mainly social gatherings and had no independent staff or budget.
Newly elected Members and beneficiaries of court-ordered redistricting, William (Bill) Clay, Sr., of Missouri, Louis Stokes of Ohio, and Shirley Chisholm embraced the concept of a group for black legislators to "seize the moment, to fight for justice, to raise issues too long ignored and too little debated"—all of which quickly translated into a more influential association for African-American Members.
Since its establishment in 1971, Members of the Congressional Black Caucus have joined together to empower America's neglected citizens and to address their legislative concerns.For more than 40 years, the CBC has consistently been the voice for people of color and vulnerable communities in Congress and has been committed to utilizing the full Constitutional power, statutory authority, and financial resources of the Government of the United States of America to ensure that everyone in the United States has an opportunity to achieve their version of the American Dream.
The legislative agenda of universal empowerment that Members of the Congressional Black Caucus collectively pursue include but are not limited to: the creation of universal access to a world-class education from birth through post secondary level; the creation of universal access to quality, affordable health care and the elimination of racially based health disparities; the creation of universal access to modern technology, capital and full, fairly-compensated employment; the creation and or expansion of U.S. foreign policy initiatives that will contribute to the survival, health, education and general welfare of all peoples of the world in a manner consistent with universal human dignity, tolerance and respect and such other legislative action as a majority of the entire CBC Membership may support.

Q: Python : Iterate folders trough directory then rename folders with condition I'm looking for a way to iterate through folders (not files in it) in a repertory and renames them with a condition :
the condition will be the name of the folder itself : if it contains a certain str (who will be in a list) then nothing change. if not its name has to change with defined str
i get an error [WinError 183] who tells me that a renamed folder already exist..
can someone please help me ?
be nice with me i'm a beginner :)
here's my script :
import os
from pathlib import Path

list_of_str = ['apple', 'pumpkin', 'strawberry']
start_path = Path('C:\\Users\\jva\\Downloads\\here')

for dirname in os.listdir(start_path):
    f = os.path.join(start_path, dirname)

    if f == enumerate(list_of_str):
        pass
    else:
       os.rename(f,"SET_STR")

A: You can do something like this instead of your if...else block:
    matchedStr = [s for s in list_of_str if s in dirname]
    if matchedStr:
        os.rename(f,"SET_STR")
    else: pass # REDUNDANT

matchedStr will have any string from list_of_str that contains dirname, and an  empty list will evaluate to False the folder will not be renamed if there are no matches.
The else is completely unnecessary here (even if x==y:....else: pass is the same as just if x!=y:..), but some people prefer a certain format so I left it in incase of that.
Also, I have a feeling that you don't quite understand how python's enumerate works. Please take a look at this tutorial at some point for further understanding.

10 Clever Uses of Old Pop Songs in Modern Movies
Posted on February 3, 2015 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer
I love good music. And while I appreciate how some films (for example, Star Wars) manage to create a completely original orchestral accompaniment that complements the action, sometimes I like to relax in familiar territory with some good old pop songs on the movie soundtrack.
Here are 10 movies that perfectly use classic rock n' roll or other types of pop songs in extremely clever ways.
1. Bad to the Bone – Terminator 2: Judgment Day
Could there be a more perfect theme song for the Terminator himself than "Bad to the Bone"? Released by George Thorogood and the Destroyers in 1982, this song shows up early on in Terminator 2: Judgment Day before we know whether the Terminator is a good guy or a bad guy. It throws the audience off and plays with our expectations. He technically is "bad to the bone" because underneath his skin his endoskeleton was designed by the murderous Cyberdyne, but we have to wait and see if he's really bad in his core programming.
2. Bohemian Rhapsody – Wayne's World
The image of Wayne, Garth, and their compatriots lip-synching and head-banging to Queen's epic 1975 ballad "Bohemian Rhapsody" while driving around in a 1976 AMC Pacer is pure magic. For me, that's the highlight of the whole film. It captures the main characters' fun-loving and sensitive sides with its sudden shifts between hard rock and piano solo. Plus, the film finds a creative way to skip past the so-so beginning of the song to the really good part by having it play off of a partially rewound cassette tape. That just serves to highlight the characters' lack of sophistication, as well as their love of fine music.
3. Come and Get Your Love – Guardians of the Galaxy
I absolutely love Guardians of the Galaxy. What really sets it apart from other comic-book movies is its music. It was no easy task to have a story set entirely in outer space with a cast of unknown alien characters, and make it accessible to non-Marvel geeks. This movie dealt with that problem by offering a huge helping of classic tunes from the '70s. It gets things started on the right note with 1974's "Come and Get Your Love" by Redbone. As Star-Lord puts on those headphones and starts dancing in front of a hostile audience of space rats, you instantly fall in love with this film.
4. I Got You Babe – Groundhog Day
1965's "I Got You Babe" by Sonny and Cher is the perfect song to capture Phil Connors' increasing sense of despair about his situation in Groundhog Day. He's stuck repeating the same day again and again seemingly for eternity, and he has to wake up to this sappy love song every single morning when the clock strikes 6:00 a.m. The song becomes torturous and it even seems to be mocking him with its repeated line, "I got you, babe."
5. I Put a Spell on You – Hocus Pocus
Hocus Pocus isn't a very good movie. It has some amazing makeup work on walking-corpse Billy Butcherson, but there's little else I actually enjoy about the film. Except a little musical number the witches sing at a dance. The song they sing is "I Put a Spell on You," which is a rendition of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' 1956 song of the same name. They rewrote most of the lyrics, but it is obviously based on the same tune and idea. And it fits seamlessly in this film about witchcraft. In a movie full of crash-and-burn moments, this is one scene that takes off beautifully.
6. Johnny B. Goode – Back to the Future
So classic. The addition of Chuck Berry's 1958 hit "Johnny B. Goode in Back to the Future is a stroke of genius. Not only does it introduce rock n' roll to a group of teenagers a few years before they're ready for it, but it also provides an excellent juxtaposition of Marty McFly and his father George. Johnny B. Goode "never ever learned to read or write so well, but he could play a guitar just like he's ringing a bell." George is a master at writing and Marty is a master on the guitar. They just need a little self-confidence to help them become famous for their unique talents. The other two verses of the song have even more intriguing things to say about the characters, but they aren't included in the film, so I'll just encourage you to check them out as anecdotal curiosities.
7. My Guy – Sister Act
There are so many perfect songs in this movie; how do I choose the best one? Easy. It's gotta be the rendition of Mary Wells' 1965 hit "My Guy," which they renamed "My God." This could not be more perfect. The main character's name is Mary and the sermon it complements is about Mary Magdalene. The more the merrier, I guess. A bunch of nuns singing about the No. 1 guy in their lives is hilarious and touching at the same time. They might be celibate, but that doesn't mean they're devoid of love for God.
8. Nature Boy – Untamed Heart
Untamed Heart is pretty much my favorite romantic film. It's bookended by Nat King Cole's melancholy 1948 tune "Nature Boy," which entails all the tragic beauty of this love story. I dare you to watch this movie and listen to this beautiful song without your eyes tearing up a little. I especially love its enlightening line, "The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return." (The song starts at about 3:13)
9. Rock Around the Clock – American Graffiti
I just noticed that a lot of these songs appear at the start of their films. Oh well. That's just the way it goes. American Graffiti greets us right off the bat with the cheerful 1955 tune "Rock Around the Clock" by Bill Haley & His Comets. Its happy-go-lucky style prepares us for the fun we're going to have during the course of this film. Plus, it subtly lets us know that this film is going to be filled with nonstop rock n' roll tunes "round the clock" until the morning finally dawns.
10. Tequila – Pee-Wee's Big Adventure
There's an undeniable charm to Pee-Wee's Big Adventure. Director Tim Burton imbues the strange man-child of Pee-Wee Herman with some surprisingly endearing qualities, such as his ability to turn any lemon into lemonade. For example, when Pee-Wee is surrounded by dozens of big, tough bikers who are ready to tear his scrawny head off, how does he respond? By engaging in a crazy dance sequence to the 1958 rock n' roll classic "Tequila," of course. Isn't that what any of us would do? This ridiculous scene showcases everything we love about Pee-Wee, from his nonchalant attitude to his incredible flare for fashion.
Great Tunes
Music has a special way of bringing films to life. I limited this list to movies with songs from at least a decade earlier, but there are plenty of movies that make creative use of excellent contemporary songs, like 1978's Halloween and "(Don't Fear) The Reaper," or Top Gun and "Danger Zone," just to name a few.

Fun post! Nice list — especially #4. It helped the film's plot–how grating and you feel the frustration of Murray. Also, #6. That was the best part of the film–the dramatic irony–a cool way to show the change in music and how turbulent the 60s were from bubble gum to electric guitar.
Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer says:
Thank you! It's impossible for me to listen to these songs without thinking of the films they were used in. Some filmmakers just know how to fit music and story together perfectly.
"Nature Boy" was first heard in the 1948 movie "The Boy with Green Hair". I believe Nat Cole's beautiful, haunting treatment to be a perfect meeting of song and singer. I may have to check out "Untamed Heart".
Wow, I didn't know that. Thank you for that cool bit of trivia. I highly recommend Untamed Heart. You'll fall in love with those characters. 🙂
opoderosochofer says:
"Bad to the bone" was used in "Problem Child" too, but not so clever
What about "Stuck in the middle with you' with "Reservoir Dogs"?
"Bad to the Bone" is just such a cool song, it's been used in several films either ironically or literally. I like how it's used in the 1998 version of The Parent Trap, too.
Yeah, I did think about using something from one of Quentin Tarantino's films. He definitely has an ear for good old songs. That scene from Reservoir Dogs is pretty hard to watch, despite its cleverness.
John Bijl (@johnbijl) says:
A very likable list, indeed. I think it should pay more attention to diegetic and non-diegetic music though. They're different animals.
I would like a shout out for the great song montages of the eighties! As in Real Genius (Chaz Jankel's Number One), Ghostbusters (Mick Smiley's Magic), and that Montage-fest called Top Gun (Danger Zone, Playing with the Boys and basically every frickin' scene!)

Q: Sails.js upgrade to v1 reverse case sensitive queries After upgrading to sails v1 all the requests in the controllers became case sensitive.
Although this is expected, commented here: https://sailsjs.com/documentation/concepts/models-and-orm/models#?case-sensitivity, I would like to have case insensitive behavior.
In my queries this is a problem and I am not able to figure out a way to make it NON case sensitive again.
I am using MongoDB in production.
Any kind of help or suggestion would be much appreciated.

A: For MongoDB we need to do a native mongo query to get case-insensitive:
const collection = Pet.getDatastore().manager.collection(Pet.tableName);
const res = await collection.find({ name: { $regex: /blue/, $options: 'i' } });
const dataWithObjectIds = await res.toArray();
const dataWithIds = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(rawDataArr).replace(/"_id"/g, '"id"'));

See here for more on native mongo query - https://stackoverflow.com/a/54830620/1828637

A: As the sails docs you linked specify, you should do this in the database:

Most databases are case sensitive by default but in the rare cases where they aren't and you would like to change that behavior you must modify the database to do so.

Since you're using MongoDB, that means creating a case insensitive index:
db.collection.createIndex({ key: 1 }, {
    collation: {
        locale: 'en',
        strength: 1
      }
})

We use a simple, self-consistent, self-gravitating semi-analytic disc model to conduct an examination of the parameter space in which self-gravitating discs may exist. We then use Monte Carlo radiative transfer to generate synthetic Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) images of these self-gravitating discs to determine the subset of this parameter space in which they generate non-axisymmetric structure that is potentially detectable by ALMA. Recently, several transition discs have been observed to have non-axisymmetric structure that extends out to large radii. It has been suggested that one possible origin of these asymmetries could be spiral density waves induced by disc self-gravity. We use our simple model to see if these discs exist in the region of parameter space where self-gravity could feasibly explain these spiral features. We find that for self-gravity to play a role in these systems typically requires a disc mass around an order of magnitude higher than the observed disc masses for the systems. The spiral amplitudes produced by self-gravity in the local approximation are relatively weak when compared to amplitudes produced by tidal interactions, or spirals launched at Lindblad resonances due to embedded planets in the disc. As such, we ultimately caution against diagnosing spiral features as being due to self-gravity, unless the disc exists in the very narrow region of parameter space where the spiral wave amplitudes are large enough to produce detectable features, but not so large as to cause the disc to fragment.

Tasers Offering NJ Cops an Alternative to Deadly Force
Dino Flammia Published: March 2, 2020
Brick Township Police Department
Within six hours of its first deployment, a Taser was used by a Brick police officer to subdue a person who officers said posed a physical threat to them.
The device, says Police Chief James Riccio, helped deescalate a situation that could've quickly gotten much worse.
Riccio's department deployed 10 conducted energy devices, or tasers, in late February to help officers handle encounters with violent suspects.
"We have 37 officers that are trained and qualified to carry them. Our intent is to qualify more in the future," Riccio told the Townsquare News Network. "It's something that we've wanted to do for quite some time."
But a department's budget needs room for the move. Each taser, with any accessories that go with it, costs about $1,900, Riccio said.
The department's first use occurred when a "mentally disturbed" individual wanted to fight officers instead of "going for an evaluation," Riccio said. He then complied with the officers' demands.
In late 2011, New Jersey became the last state in the country to approve the use of stun guns. Since then, police departments across the state have been introducing the weapons, which serve as an alternative to deadly force. New Jersey's first recorded police-use of a taser took place in Nov. 2012, in Hudson County.
According to the state Attorney General's Office, 57 stun gun deployments by police were recorded in 2018 and 55 in 2017.
In March 2016, New Jersey cops were granted less-restrictive guidelines that let officers deploy the electrical weapons in more situations, not just when they feel like their life is in danger.
The state does not currently track how many law enforcement agencies have added tasers to their belts. But as of February 2016, when the last survey was conducted by the state, 138 police departments were carrying tasers in some capacity.

Chop is where it all started for us. Her original name was Leone and she lived with about another seven Dachshunds.
She was by far the oldest of the pack. She had a bad heart and they also suspected a bad back (however, we never saw any evidence of this).
The packs owner died of old age and all of the dogs had to be re-homed. The young dogs all got homes within days. No one wanted Chop though.
The social services decided that she would have to be "put down" due to her age. So we stepped in and gave her a home.
Chop lasted a year and a half with us. She was an amazing character and was well loved until the very end.

Tony Palmer, who captured Pope Francis' bid for Christian unity with a cellphone, dies after motorcycle crash
Bishop Tony Palmer died on July 20, 2014, after a motorcycle accident.
Sarah Pulliam Bailey spulliam
(RNS) Bishop Tony Palmer, a charismatic preacher who used a cellphone camera to record Pope Francis issuing an appeal for Christian unity between Catholics and evangelicals, died Sunday (July 20) after a motorcycle crash in the United Kingdom.
In January, Palmer held the smartphone that recorded Pope Francis calling on all Christians to set aside their differences. Palmer, a bishop and international ecumenical officer with the independent Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches, also helped coordinate the pope's meeting with televangelists in June.
In the video, Pope Francis referred to Palmer as "my brother, a bishop-brother," saying they had been friends for years. "Let us allow our longing to increase so that it propels us to find each other, embrace each other and to praise Jesus Christ as the only Lord of history," Francis said.

Born in the U.K. and raised partly in South Africa, Palmer had served as the director of the South Africa office of Kenneth Copeland Ministries. On Copeland's website, Palmer said he had met Archbishop Jorge Bergoglio of Buenos Aires (now Pope Francis) in 2008 when Palmer sought permission to work with charismatic Catholics in the city.
In a February blog post for Patheos, Anglican-turned-Catholic priest the Rev. Dwight Longenecker focused on Palmer as representing something new in Anglicanism, especially for Palmer's involvement in the Convergent Movement, a charismatic Anglican group that ordains women as deacons and priests.
"One has to ask, when Tony Palmer presented himself therefore as 'an Anglican Bishop' did Archbishop Bergoglio of Argentina have any idea that this was the background and was he aware of this rapidly shifting identity of Anglicanism? I suspect he did not," Longenecker wrote. "How was a Catholic bishop in Argentina expected to be aware of the mushrooming complexity of Anglicanism?"
After the pope's June meeting with televangelists, Longenecker wrote that the real division among Christians is not between Catholics and Protestants.
"The real divide is between progressives who wish to alter the historic faith according to the spirit of the age, and those who believe the spirit of the age should be challenged by the eternal and unchanging truth of the Christian gospel," he said.
Retired Pope Benedict XVI invited Anglicans to join the Catholic Church, allowing priests to remain married and continue to have some autonomy. With a Catholic wife, an international background and a charismatic evangelical blend, Longenecker wrote, Palmer served as the perfect "face" for new Anglicanism.

It's funny how a couple of nights ago I sat through a lecture about the meaning of Advent and how it relates to the four levels of happiness. No where during this hour-and-a-half-long presentation did the speaker address where on the heirarchy something like this Boyz II Men-Fall Out Boy collaboration fits in.
I'm pretty sure it's at a higher level than is shown on the chart above.

Metallica Week
Cloud Of Starlings – EP1
March 6, 2017 Samuel Marshall 2016, Cloud of Starlings, EP, Review
Since their inception in early 2013, Cloud Of Starlings have grown into a solid rock outfit. Their blues-rock Americana style will sit well with hard rock fans and indie kids alike. They don't reinvent the wheel and they wear their influences on their sleeve but that is no bad thing. Their penchant for sweeping guitar driven classic rock make them very pleasing on the ears.
For a band who love to play music while drinking, they'll have no trouble entertaining those of us who like to listen to music while drinking. EP1, as an introduction to the band, is a fine way to spend 15 minutes of your evening while enjoying a beer. Or, in keeping with the music, some of your favourite old Tennessee whiskey.
Those influences are written large on this EP, given it includes Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, The Black Crowes, some Hendrix for good measure, it's something the band should be unconcerned with. They're all there on opening track 'Black Heart'. The song is structured around a looping riff and a gravelly blues-rock vocal. It's a song that manages to sound like a Black Crowes song, without sounding like any of the Black Crowes' actual songs.
Second track 'Fire' is more of a slow burner, with a singalong chorus it builds from a brooding, fuzzy, acoustic intro and another 'from the classic's' riff until all four band members are rocking, before fading out again with that brooding fuzzy acoustic. More of this would be pleasing. Third song 'Turn Me On' is their crowd pleaser. A ballsy rocker with an 80's arena rock solo in exactly the right place. It's their set closer and it's easy to see why.
To describe all three songs here; if you like American rock, from the 70's to the 90's, then this EP should have plenty of appeal. Their most recent gig, on February 9th at Ivory Blacks in Glasgow, was their third of a year where they aim to have the festival crowds of Scotland rocking.
Cloud Of Starlings don't mess about and you'll be able to check them out around Glasgow as well as festivals around the country this summer. As the band say, "Keep your eyes on the sky".
Cloud of Starlings Ep1 is available to stream and buy here.

Indie kid at his core but has been known to love anything with a beat. Sucker for a slide guitar a catchy chorus. Happiest with a beer at a gig.

Basketball Ohio Valley Retirement
Dave Loos officially announces retirement from Austin Peay
March 6, 2017 December 6, 2019 Coaches Database Austin Peay Governors, Dave Loos, Ohio Valley
After 27 seasons at the school, head coach Dave Loos has announced his retirement from Austin Peay. Loos is the winningest coach in Ohio Valley Conference history (420 wins), claiming five OVC titles and four OVC Tournament championships along the way.
The 70-year old Loos made the initial announcement last week, but held a press conference Monday to make it official. The coach has had some health issue over the past few years, including an offseason surgery and a medical leave this season to undergo chemotherapy on a malignant lymph node. Despite that, Loos missed just four games and returned to claim his 500th overall win as a collegiate head coach.
Loos is a St. Louis native and Memphis grad, spending time as an assistant at his alma mater before taking over at Austin Peay in 1990. He also had stints as an assistant and head coach at DII Christian Brothers University in Memphis and as the head coach at Mehlville HS (MO).
During his tenure as Austin Peay head coach, Loos also served 16 seasons as the school's athletic director, relinquishing those added duties in 2013 to focus solely on the men's basketball team. Coming into the 2016-17 season, Loos was the tied with Ron Cottrell as the 7th longest tenured head coach in Division I basketball.

Accidents happen in Massachusetts every day, and unfortunately, many of them lead to critical injuries. Car accidents, on-the-job accidents, and other incidents can cause serious medical issues such as brain injuries, broken bones, and more. Personal injury claims are a way for victims of accidents caused by negligence or carelessness to obtain financial compensation for damages related to the incident. Chisholm Law LLC offers residents of Beverly and surrounding areas with veteran legal representation in order to give clients injured in accidents the opportunity to seek the maximum amount of restitution available.
An accident can happen to anyone, anywhere, at any time. Although many people believe accidents to be just that — accidental — the truth is that many incidents are preventable and were simply caused by the carelessness or negligence of another individual or entity. The costs associated with injury-causing accidents can be overwhelming, and in severe cases, they can total millions of dollars or more. Since most people don't expect the worst to happen, many families are financially unprepared for the monetary damage that an accident can do. By reaching out to an experienced Massachusetts personal injury attorney, you can learn more about how to bring forward a claim for the full and fair compensation you deserve.
Chisholm Law LLC knows how difficult being injured can be for both the victim and his or her family. He is committed to providing his clients with expert legal representation throughout each stage of their case, from the filing of the initial claim to the final verdict.
If you were injured at work, you may be eligible for workers' compensation. Workers' compensation benefits that are designed to cover lost wages and medical bills may be available to you if you were involved in an accident while at your job. Learn more about workers' compensation in Massachusetts here.
There is a statute of limitations on personal injury cases in Massachusetts. The state imposes a 3 year statute of limitations, meaning that you must file your case within 3 calendar years of the original incident in order for it to be successful. Most personal injury cases filed after the statute of limitations has passed are thrown out of court.
If you or a family member have been injured in an accident of any kind, it is imperative that you contact a seasoned Beverly, MA personal injury lawyer as quickly as possible after obtaining emergency medical care. By working with an accident attorney immediately after the incident, you can protect your right to financial restitution for the damages you've incurred.
Chisholm Law LLC has successfully assisted hundreds of injured individuals and their families after an accident, and can provide you with the comprehensive legal representation you need to seek the maximum damage award possible in your case. Call today, (978) 703-0700 for a consultation to discuss your legal needs with Chisholm Law LLC, and to learn more about the steps you need to take to move forward after a serious accident.

Q: Trie algorithm query I am working on simple problem of constructing sentence out of line with no space and punctuations. So it needs dictionary to find if such word exist. For eg. Below is sample of how i created trie in python using dict.
Trie = {o: {on: {one: ""}}}

Now question i have is, "on" and "one" both are valid words, in above problem i would always choose longest matching hence "on" word will not be considered but if i want to write such code how do i do that? Like if value of key is not another dict then its a word But for "on" key would be another dict containing longer word here its "one". I can not have "on" pointing to "' and at the same time to another dict!
Something is wrong somewhere, maybe there is another algo which is for this problem. Link to resource is fine with me

A: Introduce a special key that means that the parent can be considered a leaf node.
Say '$END$' is my special key. My trie would look like:
Trie = {o: {on: {one: "", "$END$": ""}}}

Then you can check if the dict is empty or if it contains the special key.

We provide services to image and quantify fibrosis in several organs, both for pre-clinical and clinical applications. Our projects range from 5 to 10 slides exploratory projects to 100 / 150 tissue studies for anti-fibrotic compounds screening or validation, or patient tissue characterization. We can do routine biopsy quality control (pre-biobanking) or fibrotic animal model quality assurance (pre-study biopsy and fibrosis quantification).
We welcome typical non-stained FFPE - 5 micron - or frozen section slides, which are returned after the study for further characterization (usually biochemistry).
How to prepare the samples before shipping?
High Resolution Second Harmonic Generation (SGH) is a gold standard to image non centro-symmetric molecules like Collagen I and Collagen III specifically.
Label Free Two Photon intrinsic fluorescence (2PE) is the second optical method used to image cellular-level components, such as NADPH which translates to mitochondrial / cell health.
Genesis is is a mid-throughput fully automated imaging system (10 slides per batch) to image both Collagen (SHG) and NADPH (2PE) in high resolution in 2D and 3D (0.4x0.4x1 micron at 20X).
Tissues are prepared following conventional pathology protocols (5 micron sections of FFPE blocs) or frozen sections. For 3D, we can use 50 to 300 microns-think tissues.
Left : NASH Liver Model shows collagen strings (green, SHG) overlapping the Fluorescence Signal from NADPH (cells).
Right : the corresponding SHG / collagen image alone, that offers a great deal of information on the collagen content and structure, which is later quantified by our tools.
Side by side comparison of SHG & 2PE imaging of non-strained 5 micron FFPE slide with conventional PSR staining. Credits to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, 2016.
Each image analysis algorithm is tissue/dependent. See our pipeline here.
Images are treated with clinically validated algorithms to quantify the amount and features of Collagen, including Total Collagen, Distributed Collagen, strings count and topological distributions including nodes/cross links. Our algorithms are "machine learning" with pathologists inputs and then validated against conventional stained and quantified H&E images.
As shown below, the progression and severity of the BLD injury in an animal model is described using +15 different morphometric descriptors that increase as fibrosis progress. A composite score is generated to linearize the rate of progression (figure below, N=5 in each group), or to enhance the dynamic range in specific fibrosis severity regions ( "F3-4" for instance).
As shown below, antifibrotic drug candidates are easily evaluated using our 2DFibrosis Charts. They summarize the effect of a compound on both the collagen content (Collagen Fibers Area% or even better our Collagen Fiber Density %) and the collagen matrix structure (Collagen Network Reticulation Index or Collagen Reticulation Density), with robust data obtain with N=4 or 5 only.
The Antifibrotic effect of Pirfenidone on a CCl4 Rodent Model is easily show on our 2DFibrosis Chart ( above). The data is extracted from our SHG Images (below). Credits: Genesis Imaging Service and GenScript, 2016.
Our machine-learning algorithms are able to automatically identify the three main functional areas of the lung : the "lesional" or "Inflamatory" areas ( in red below), the "Parenchymal" or "functional" areas ( in blue below) and the "Structural" areas (in green). The segmentation of these regions is automatic and the algorithms are based on the analysis of the texture of the collagen matrix, and have been trained by pathologists.
The full study, including comparison to conventional Fibrosis outcomes is presented here.
As for Lung/IPF, our machine-learning algorithms identify the cortical and medulla regions on a typical Kidney "wedge" biopsy. In each region, collagen content and collagen structure / reticulation are automatically quantified, and can also be displayed on our 2D fibrosis Charts (see below the progression of Fibrosis on a Kidney UUO Model from Day 0 to Day 28). Such capabilities are not limited to "wedge"biopsies: they can be performed on any kid of tissue, including human frozen sections biopsies.
Additional custom quantification capabilities can be developed, for instance to evaluate and substantiate a mechanism of action.
Below: Corresponding SHG Image, showing the sensitivity and level of details of our imaging methods. Hypothesis-driven imaging tools can be applied to substantiate specific MOA.

Who Is The Strongest Character In Boruto?
October 7, 2022 December 6, 2021 by Khushi Keshri
A Japanese Manga series Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. Penmen of the series are Ukyō Kodachi and Masashi Kishimoto, and the series is illustrated by Mikio Ikemoto. The publisher of the series is Shueisha. Boruto: Naruto Next Generations was also published in the English language by Viz Media. This Manga series was first published on 9 May 2016, and till present, the series is running, till now this series has completed 15 volumes. Different magazines published series, Weekly Shōnen Jump published it from 9 May 2016 – 10 June 2019 and V jump from 20 July 2019 – present. With adventure and fantasy genre this Manga series has gained a lot of popularity among readers. The anime series adapted from this Manga series has more than 200 episodes to date. The Anime series premiered on 5 April 2017 and is running till the present on TXN (TV Tokyo).
In this series, we have met some of the strongest characters. After the introduction of some Otsutsuki, the scaling of power in the series has grown since 2017. While ranking Boruto characters, there is much to consider like new techniques, characters, and models. In further articles, we will be discussing the strongest Otsutsuki characters of Boruto.
Plot Premise
Strongest Character in Boruto
The series starts with a teenaged Boruto Uzumaki, who faced a foe named Kawaki, at the time of the destruction of his village. Naruto Uzumaki, the son of the seventh Hokage, Boruto got angry over his father for placing a village over his family. During that, Boruto joined and became a member of the Ninja team. Furthermore, the story continues this plot with some adventures among the characters.
Characters of the series
Uzumaki, Boruto, Mitsuki, Naruto, Hyuuga, Nara, Buntan Kurosuki, Code, Daemon, Denki Kaminarimon, Garo, Ehou Norimaki, Delta, Deepa, Chōjūrō, Chōchō Akimichi, Anko Mitarashi, Araya, Ao, Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki, Namida Suzumeno, Omoi, Orochimaru, Sai Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara, Sumire Kakei, Tsurushi Hachiya, Urashiki Ōtsutsuki, Namida, Tsuzumi, Tentō Madoka, Might Guy, Mei Terumī, Magire Kakuremino, Kurotsuchi, Kakashi Hatake, Kagari, Jaggy, Inojin Yamanaka, Iwabee Yuino, Hiruga, Himawari Uzumaki, Garo, Ehou Norimaki and characters of the series all were perfect together.
Who Is The Strongest Character In Boruto
Kashin Koji
A clone of legendary Sanin Jiraiya, Kashin Koji. He has some smattering knowledge of Jutsu and Sage powers. After all, he has much power, it's no surprise that he is one of the strongest characters in the series. Amado created Kashin Koji to kill Ishiki Otsutsuki, as he was not capable of killing.
Nobody will ever think that Boruto belongs to the top 10 strongest characters, as he has normal characters and powers. But now he is one of the strongest characters because he has enough amazing power. At once, Momoshiki took control of him and he became powerful.
Urashiki
He is one of the first members to be introduced in the series. According to his allies, he is one of the weakest characters. But as compared to other characters, he is also somehow powerful with Rinnegan and Byakugan. Although,he has his own achievement in the series. However, Urashiki was killed by Boruto.
Sasuke was one of the strongest characters of the series in the beginning but with time he fell down. However, he is still competitive against other characters.
Momoshiki
Momoshiki was one of the first Otsutsuki characters we have seen in the movie, even before the premiere of the series. However, is also one of the strongest characters because he can absorb Jutsu and send it back with much more power. Also, he has some transformation techniques and access to both the Byakugan and Rinnegan.
Jigen
After Ishikki was betrayed by Kaguya, then Jigen turned from a simple monk to one of the most powerful on Boruto. Even before transforming he is able to handily take on both Naruto and Sasuke, this shows that is also one of the most and strongest characters.
Code is so powerful that Amado has to install limiters, to keep his power and a limit and don't let it go above Jigen's. But without a doubt is also one of the top strongest characters and is also powerful on the show.
Naruto is the strongest character on the show so far. The fusion between Naruto and Kurama's chakra is Baryon mode and it is also the strongest transformation to date.

Incoming question about a Reed's Bitters sample vial. I haven't seen this before. Most bitters collectors are familiar with Reed's Bitters. We will use this opportunity to take a closer look.
[PRG] John: Interesting little piece. I don't think I have ever seen a vial with a bitters label. Maybe this was one of the first 5 Hour Energy Drinks you see on convenience store check-out counters.
I do not see a listing in Ring and Ham Bitters Bottles but I do recognize a few key components on the label that tie right back to the Reed's Bitters lady's leg (see pictures below).
On the maroon label, beneath the serifed alphabet which is consistent with Reed's Bitters typography, there looks to be a Geo. W. M. Reed, New Haven listing. This is consistent with the proprietor and later location of the brand. The testimonial on the back label is also really interesting as it looks like a real signature from George Reed in ink that has been smeared. The word "Stomach" is positioned between "Reed's" and "Bitters" which is interesting.
I have put together a few pictures of the parent Reed's Bitters bottle, some collateral material and examples of the Reed's Gilt Edge Tonic which was a popular beverage sold by Reed on a rather a large scale under dubious pretenses as you will see from court documents below.
Notes: Directory listings show a W. Reed Distiller & Liquors, 27 Spring St., New York, in 1850. In 1880, W. Reed Liquors & Bitters, 18 Bleeker St., New York.
Also listed is a Geo. W. Reed Bitter Co., New Haven, Conn. in the 1870s.
From and after January 1, 1874 each bottle had a 4 cent Internal Revenue Proprietary Stamp (see below).
Not much personal information is available for George W. M. Reed from New Haven, Connecticut but he sure put out a rather well-known bitters, that being Reed's Bitters, which later morphs into Reed's Cocktail Bitters, Reed's Aromatic Bitters and Reed's Aromatic Stomach Bitters. Essentially the same bitters put up in beautiful amber lady's leg figural bottles. He was also known for his Reed's Gilt-Edge Tonic (also advertised as Reed's Gilt-Edge Tonic Bitters). Reed advertised extensively and sold his product nationally, often making trips with his top salesman to pitch the bitters, so we can track him that way.
George W. M. Reed was born about 1842 in Connecticut. Both of his parents were also from Connecticut according to an 1880 United States Federal Census. We first see him listed as Tuttle & Reed, liquors & ales at 176 State Street in New Haven. Nathan Hale Tuttle was his partner. Reed probably clerked in this or another liquor store first to get some experience. In 1871, he is listed as Reed & Moseley, liquor dealers, 176 State Street. In 1873, the concern is now G. W. M. Reed & Co., liquor dealers at the same address. In 1874, the name is George W. M. Reed & Co., and W. O. Fletcher is his partner. They are selling ales, wines & liquors at 176 State Street.
We first see mention of Reed's Bitters in 1875 when a New Haven directory listing notes Geo. W. M. Reed & Co., wine merchants, Manufacturers of Reed's Bitters, 176 State Street. He was proud of his bitters and indicates on one of the advertising trade cards below that his bitters had won some international gold metals though I can find no record of this. Those metals have the dates 1862 and 1867. He could have concocted his bitters then but he certainly wasn't advertising it yet. He probably just added the dates to give his product some history.
His lady's leg bitters labels probably read, "Reed's Aromatic Stomach Bitters" and his bottles were simply embossed "Reed's Bitters." I have not seen any labeled examples except in the illustration on the trade card below. On the Reed's Bitters wallet card below, you will see advice on how to make his first-class Cocktail Bitters and when reduced with water, his Stomach Bitters. Just changing with the times and market trends.
From 1878-1881, Daniel O. Reed joins him and they are listed as Bitters Manufacturers at 298 State Street in New Haven. We first see Reed's Aromatic Stomach Bitters listed in an Internal Revenue Record in 1879.
By 1881 and 1882, we see advertisements for both Reed's Gilt-Edge Tonic and Reed's Cocktail Bitters. Reed has changed his company name to Geo. W. M. Reed Bitter (no "s") Company. He is also listed as importers and wholesale dealers in liquors, wines, &c., and notes a new product called Reed's Horehound, Honey & Rye. The last listing I can find is The George W. M. Reed Bitter Co. in 1894.
What happens to George W. M. Reed after that is unknown.

Building integrated photovoltaics – Europe's next wave of renewables?
The PVSITES project is addressing the barriers and challenges to large scale deployment of building integrated solar PV in Europe.
In towns and cities around the world there is a whole lot of real estate that is available for the generation of renewable energy. And the average onlooker, unless looking very closely, wouldn't even be aware that it is happening.
In the move from a centralised to distributed generation system, the ability to connect behind the meter renewables is key. However, the opportunities with the current generation of renewables are limited. For example, traditional photovoltaic (PV) panels, besides generally not being aesthetically attractive, are generally only roof mounted.
On the other hand, so called building integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) can be located almost anywhere on the building and should be fully integrated. This opens the way not only for the next generation of building energy management and the achievement of (near) zero energy buildings but also other grid edge opportunities.
"BIPVs are conceived as a way to replace traditional construction materials with energy generating construction materials and as such they are an essential part of the building," explains Dr Maider Machado, leader of BIPV activities at the Spanish research institute Tecnalia, who is heading up the European PVSITES project.
BIPVs are not a new technology but one whose time has come. Think for example of Tesla's solar roof options, which were launched late last year.
According to Machado, approximately 200 BIPV products are currently available in Europe. Most of them are rooftop applications, followed by glazed systems, e.g. for facades or skylights, and also most are based on crystalline silicon technology.
In addition, the technologies have tended to be plagued by other factors such as low efficiencies and high costs, the latter exacerbated by the fast declining costs of traditional solar PV, and it is such issues that PVSITES is aimed to address.
Moreover, new technologies are emerging, in particular bifacial cells or thin-film technology based on amorphous silicon or copper-indium-gallium-selenide (CIGS), which is opening the way for example, for lightweight flexible membranes for rooftop applications.
With support from the EC Horizon 2020 programme, the three and a half-year PVSITES has a number of objectives. These include the delivery of a range of new module technologies, two new inverter technologies, a new building energy management system and a software simulation tool for architects.
In addition, recommendations will be made on issues such as standards and a large effort is put on information dissemination.
All technologies are tested in the lab, before being moved out to the field at six demonstration sites across Europe. These include Tecnalia's head office building and an industrial building in Spain, a multi-family building in France, a single family building in Belgium, and a carport and an educational building in Switzerland.
"We have aimed to cover different electricity markets, climates and building uses with different architectural implementations and also both new and retrofit situations," says Machado of the demonstrations.
She adds there also will be demonstration of the new energy management system, which is designed to optimise instantaneous self-consumption in combination with load shifting and/or storage and includes forecasting tools for day ahead planning.
As an example of the latter, she cites one of the products under development in PVSITES - a semi transparent solar control system for application on skylights and facades. During the winter the system operates as a traditional BIPV system but in summer the radiation is concentrated by a Fresnel lens system to a BIPV module thereby avoiding its entry into the building.
With all products the goal is to achieve a cost target with a 5-7-year payback, depending on the climate, business model, etc.
While PVSITES has clear targets and deliverables to meet, the question of where the building integrated photovoltaics market in general is headed is somewhat nebulous at this stage.
The project's own analysis estimates that until at least 2020 the market will remain niche, with BIPV technologies accounting for no more than 8% of total PV shipments, or 5GW, by 2020. Europe and the USA are seen as the market leaders with approximately $4.7 bn invested in each.
