Hello there. Today, I would like to show you how to How to Find Keywords for A Website. Let us say that you own your own your own little business and you want to have your own website to promote it. Building the website is the easy part of this job for you. Getting your website to be recognizes and be ranked in Google and the other major search engines is the hard part of the job.
How Do the Search Engines Recognize a Website?
Search engines recognize a website by what type of KEYWORDS being used by the webmasters for their sites.The perfectly optimized website will have the right mixture of keyword usage and very good content that flows naturally. The website will also have a lot of natural back-links from external websites. The search engine uses this information to determine which sites get to be on the first page or rank highest.
The keywords have to be relevant to what product or service that is being sold. Believe me, it sounds very easy talking about it but finding the right keywords can be very frustrating, especially if you do not have the right tool.
Why Is It Difficult Without the Right Tool?
Without the right tool, you could end up using keywords that have very high competition. When you go into a certain niche using keywords that a lot of other sites are using, you could be up against very large corporations with a lot of funds invested in their sites with a whole group of writers and webmasters whose whole purpose is to defeat their competitors. Especially in online marketing and advertising.
What Keyword Tool Would I recommend?
I have tried a variety of tools and techniques to find the best keywords for my projects and the one tool that stands out for me is Jaaxy. Jaaxy is one of the most accurate and powerful, if not the best keyword tool in the market today.
You simply enter a starting keyword into the keyword search window of Jaaxy and it does all the work for you. Let us say that you want to search some keywords on the phrase "Introduction to Affiliate Marketing." As you can see on the picture below, not only did Jaaxy gave us the results of the best keyword phrases related to our search bot it also tells us whether those keywords are great, normal or poor. As you can see Jaaxy has a lot of different features. I will go over those features, one by one on what they stand for.
Keywords – a phrase a user type into a search engine in order to find what they are looking for.
AVG – the average number of searches the keyword receives each month.
Traffic – visits to your website if you achieve first page ranking in the search engines.
QSR (Quoted Search Results) – the number of competing websites ranked in Google for this exact same keyword.
Domains – the availability of domains that are related to the keywords.
Related Keywords and Brainstorm – keywords that are related to your target keywords. These same keywords can be used to help you brainstorm.
As you enter a keyword into the keyword search window of Jaaxy, Jaaxy scour its huge search database that it collects from the three major search engines, Google, Yahoo and Bing and show it to us in Jaaxy in a very simplified manner. Not only does it show us the best keywords but it also shows us how much competition the keyword has and how much traffic it generates as we show on the list above. Using Jaaxy will also cut down on the time we used to spend looking for keywords tremendously.
Is There Any Training on How to Use Jaaxy?

As we are searching for keywords that are the perfect match or the closest to what we need, we sometimes overlook some of the low hanging keywords that right their in front of our eyes.
What Are Low Hanging Fruits Keywords?
They are keywords that are not as attractive as the ones that you are looking for. Translate this to Keyword Research Language and you'll know that "low hanging fruit keywords" means keywords with less traffic but easier to rank for because there is also less competition. Most people tend to go after the more popular and more competitive keywords but the fact is, the keywords that are not as competitive can be a treasure trove over time. You just keep on using them and your pages can get ranked very high because of them.
What Di I Do With Low Hanging Fruit Keywords?
When you start a new page or post, the best strategy is to aim for the low hanging fruit keywords for the post in order to gain domain and page authority right from the start. After you get the initial SEO boost from using the low hanging fruit keywords then you can start targeting more familiar and competitive keywords by adding links to those more competitive keyword targeted posts.
WARNING !!! Try to Use Only Keyword Phrase That Make Sense.
Many times keywords with the wrong spelling or grammar show up with very high traffic and low competition. Those keywords are misspelled or grammatically wrong due to the fact that Google Instant suggest them when people start to type in their search terms. Whatever you do, please do not use those kind of keyword phrases. They will lead you to a lot of headaches in the future.
How is the Support at Jaaxy?
Jaaxy has a top notch and very friendly team of support personnel standing by to help you with any concerns you might have. This is the same group that owns Wealthy Affiliate University, so you can expect to get help from the Wealthy Affiliate site where there is a community of online marketers who are always willing to help or you can leave a message for Kyle or Carson on their profiles.There is a contact us button on the home page and they usually reply within 24 hours.
In conclusion, I hope I have been able to shed some light on how you can choose keyword for your sites using Jaaxy. Jaaxy has simplified the task of keyword searching very much that now you can get the job done correctly in just a fraction of the time it used to take a few years back.
I will keep on adding on to this page whenever Jaaxy does any upgrade or updates. I hope you will enjoy your keyword searches with the help of Jaaxy.


Having been in business for over 25 years, naturally we have thousands of satisfied clients throughout the Twin Cities area. You just cannot stay in business for this long without taking care of the customer. Below are actual comments written to us from some of our satisfied customers.
I had a very good experience working with Quarve Contracting. Pat came out and gave me a very competitive and informative bid for siding two dormers on my house. I felt comfortable and confident in his knowledge. He explained what would need to be done and what my options were. He was also very open about what additional cost there may be after work began (one does not know what's under the surface until its removed). The bid was not the lowest, but out of 5 bids, they were the in the middle. By far the most informative.
Pat and Julie Quarve are personable, knowledgeable, and weather permitting, they deliver on time. Our Kasselwood metal roof looks great, and we believe it will do its job for many decades. People passing by our home comment on its beauty on a regular basis. All of our concerns were addressed in the process of working with the Quarve crew, And we have no unexpected problems. I would use them again for anything that they do.
Pat did a great job of listening and considering all aspects of our re-roofing project. He took his time to look all through our roof/attic spaces and developed a comprehensive plan to not just re-roof our house, but also better manage hot/cold transfer between that roof and living space to better prevent ice buildup/damming. The roof looks great. The install team was wonderful and did a great job cleaning up afterwards. Pat was involved throughout the entire process – from selling through installation – to make sure we got what we wanted and the process was done to ours (and his) satisfaction. Thanks, Pat & Julie, for the wonderful experience and the new roof!
Our white Kasselwood Roof looks beautiful! It outshines the neighborhood, literally & figuratively  Pat, Julie, and the Quarve crew were very friendly throughout and always responsive- we didn't have any issues. We got the work done in February- and Pat's crew even came back during the first thaw and did another yard-clean-up. We've already recommended Quarve to three of our friends and will continue to do so. This roof will last us several decades and we look forward to not worrying about it! Thanks, Quarve!
Our house looks great and the whole experience was pleasant and hassle-free. We loved the work they did so well that we hired them on another project and recommended them to friends and family. Quarve Contracting is not only a step above the rest in the construction field, they are leaps and bounds above the rest.
The quality of Quarve Contracting's work and the professionalism of the crew was outstanding! We've recommended Quarve to three friends, all of whom selected Quarve to do their siding. Each homeowner was impressed with the completed work. We continue to recommend Quarve for their unwavering commitment to customer service and quality workmanship at a fair price.
We want to let you know how very impressed we are with how you handled replacing our roof after hail damage. It seems to be a rare occasion that you can hire a contractor who is not only professional and innovative in business practices but also used top quality products and actually does what they say they will do! You helped us see there really is a difference in who you hire as a contractor – you take the cake! To us, Quarve Contracting stands for integrity, quality and professionalism.
We would like to thank you for a great job on our house. We chose Quarve because they displayed professionalism from the start and we knew they were very quality driven. Anybody can up siding, roofing and gutters but is it going to last and meet state codes? This is important to protect our investment. Quarve exceeded all of our expectations. Thank you to Quarve for a great job!!

One Direction's First Interview Following Zayn Malik's Departure Should Bring Much-Needed Comfort To Fans
By Loretta Donelan
In a move that should bring comfort to worried Directioners, the remaining members of One Direction have given their first interview following Zayn Malik's departure to British tabloid The Sun about where they go from here. While there were some sad words, the remaining members of the band — Liam, Niall, Louis, and Harry — seemed pretty optimistic. They gave no sign that there are going to be more big changes within the band in the near future; instead, the boys emphasized that it's actually going to be business as usual for the band.
Even better, they no longer seem worried about Malik, despite the rumors that they may have been in the past — and they didn't address all the speculation swirling around Malik's departure, including the rumor that the rapper Naughty Boy has inspired Malik to set his sights on a rapping career.
Following this interview, fans should definitely be relieved that the band seems eager to retain continuity, as well as look toward their future as a group without Malik. Additionally, and even better, fans who were worried that One Direction would be seriously jeopardized by Malik's departure should rest easy — the boys are currently touring as a four-piece band in the Middle East (they spoke to The Sun from Dubai) and seem stronger than ever: Their first concerts without Zayn have apparently gone well, despite a few obvious differences.
Here are what each of the boys had to say about the future of One Direction, courtesy of The Sun .
Christopher Polk/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
"It's been a tough few weeks, probably the toughest since the band was formed five years ago. We're gutted Zayn chose to leave. But now after a few performances as a four-piece, we're feeling confident and determined to carry on stronger than ever."
CARL COURT/AFP/Getty Images
"We're looking forward to seeing all our fans on the tour this year. The fans are amazing. They are so loyal. All we want to do is make them proud and return their faith in us with a brilliant tour and an amazing new album."
MARTY MELVILLE/AFP/Getty Images
"All four of us are 100% committed to staying in One Direction and we want to thank the fans for being so incredible during this time. We have so much more we still want to achieve. Our gigs in South Africa were some of the biggest the country has ever seen, so it's exciting for us to keep breaking records for British music worldwide."
"It's very exciting to be working on our fifth album, it shows how incredible the fans have been. A huge thank you to them for everything they've done for us. All the love to them."
I think it's safe to say that even without Malik, One Direction is going to be just fine.

William Barr Is Paying His Boss $30,000 For a Holiday Party
A Justice Department official promises the decision to give Trump a holiday bonus wasn't made to "curry favor with the president."
By Alison Durkee
By Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images.
When it comes to his allegiance to President Donald Trump, Attorney General William Barr is seemingly willing to put his money where his mouth is. The Washington Post reports that Barr will be hosting his annual "Family Holiday Party" this year at the Trump International Hotel in Washington D.C. for approximately 200 guests on December 8. According to a contract obtained by the Post, the attorney general will be paying more than $30,000 for the holiday bash—which will conveniently be directly enriching his boss's business.
The Post reports that Barr will be paying for the event himself and chose the venue after discovering other local hotels, including the Willard and Mayflower Hotels, were already booked. The annual shindig will include a buffet and four-hour open bar, along with both traditional holiday festivities and a ceilidh, which features Irish or Scottish music. (Barr, after all, is a former competitive bagpipe player.) The party's price tag includes $4,500 to rent the Ivanka Trump-designed ballroom and at least $100 per person for food and drink—plus 35% for tax and tip—and the contract requires Barr to pay at least $31,500, even if he ends up canceling the event. A Justice Department official told the Post that the decision to host the event at the Trump hotel was not made in order to "curry favor with the president," and that career ethics officials were "consulted" about the decision. "They determined that ethics rules did not prohibit him from hosting his annual party at the Trump hotel," the official said.
Of course, the Trump Organization has regularly profited off of government officials since Trump first took office, sparking criticism that the president is violating the Constitution's Emoluments Clause as a result. The Post reported in June that Trump's trips to his own properties alone have brought in at least $1.6 million in revenue from federal officials and GOP campaigns—not to mention all the visits and events by officials from 22 foreign governments. Trump most recently raised the Emoluments Clause alarm by suggesting he'll hold next year's G7 summit at his (potentially bedbug-ridden) Trump National Doral Miami, a decision that law professor Kathleen Clark told the Associated Press would be "ethics violation squared."
Complicating Barr's decision to host a Trump hotel event of his own is the fact that as the head of the Justice Department, Barr and his attorneys are the ones defending Trump in the multiple Emoluments lawsuits focused on these hotel charges—which could particularly be a problem if Trump gives Barr a discount on the bill. "If the attorney general gets a discount while the Justice Department defends the hotel in court, that is not how the justice system is supposed to work and it's not how the Department of Justice is supposed to work," Liz Hempowicz, director of public policy at the nonprofit Project on Government Oversight, told the Post. (The Justice Department official said Barr will be paying market rate for the event, though the Post notes it is "difficult to determine" whether that's true based on the contract they obtained.)
Barr's choice of venue also doesn't help the attorney general's existing reputation as a Trump sycophant willing to show blind loyalty to his boss, whether that's through misrepresenting the Mueller report, or, now, putting some extra holiday cash in his boss's pockets. Walter Shaub, a former director of the Office of Government Ethics, told the Post that Barr's decision is "one of those things that doesn't violate the rules, but it's really troubling," saying the attorney general "keeps sending signals that his loyalty is to a politician and not to the country." The attorney general's actions also raise concerns that the holiday party, which the DOJ is currently suggesting is totally above board, may spur a larger trend. D.C. Attorney General Karl A. Racine told the Post that he fears Barr's holiday bash will "normalize" those who spend money at Trump properties to "curry favor" with the president, which could lead to even more Trump allies doing so with fewer consequences. The venue choice could also signal to those in the Trump orbit that money is an acceptable—and, perhaps, even encouraged—way to demonstrate the loyalty that Trump so clearly craves. "It creates the appearance that high-level political appointees or allies of the president may feel like they need to spend money at the president's businesses as a show of loyalty," Hempowicz said, "and that is something that makes me deeply uncomfortable and should make taxpayers deeply uncomfortable."

The Hidden History of British Girls' Horror Comics: Magic, Mystery, Monsters… and Mothers?
British girls' comics dominated children's entertainment in the last century but have been all but forgotten today. When remembered, they are often characterised as all about horses, ballet and boarding schools. But nothing could be further from the truth! – these comics were not for the fainthearted, and told tales of Nazi soldiers, cursed choirs, deals with the devil, schoolgirl sacrifice, parallel worlds, monsters, possession, criminals and more..
This talk looks closely at two supernatural British girls' comics: Spellbound (DC Thomson, 1976-77) and Misty (IPC/Fleetway, 1978-80). It reveals the background to the launch of both titles and explores the relationship between them, looking closely at their key characters, most shocking stories, and most dramatic artwork. In honour of Mothering Sunday, it also shows how these comics challenged male authority, particularly through their treatment of parents and depiction of motherhood.
Julia Round's research examines the intersections of Gothic, comics and children's literature. Her books include Gothic in Comics and Graphic Novels (2014), Comics and Graphic Novels (2022), and the award-winning Gothic for Girls: Misty and British Comics (2019). She has published over forty book chapters and articles on aspects of comics and Gothic and is an Associate Professor in English and Comics Studies at Bournemouth University, UK.

@OneToMany(fetch = FetchType.LAZY, mappedBy = "topic")
public Set<Comment> getComments() {
    return this.comments;
}

...

Comment model:
...

@ManyToOne(fetch = FetchType.LAZY)
@JoinColumn(name = "topic_id", nullable = false)
public Topic getTopic() {
    return this.topic;
}

...

Here comes the question. I can get the detached topic object DT using findById(). However, every time I want to send DT as the response body to the frontend, 'no session' exception is thrown because LAZY object - comments, can only be accessed within the session.
1) if I don't change to EAGER, my solution is to create new Topic object NT and retrieve values (except comments) from the DT. Then return NT as the response body. Is this the best practice?
2) if I change the @OneToMany part to EAGER, the problem is still unsolved. Because when I send DT, set of comments are included, and every comment has relationship to topic as declared by @ManyToOne. So still 'no session' exception is thrown.
3) if I change both @OneToMany and @ManyToOne to EAGER, computer will stuck as it will go from topic to comment and back to topic, iteratively, never stop.
So, how you guys suggest to return topic as response body.

A: After long time of research, I finally have acceptable solution.
But first thing first, the reason of using bidirectional relationship can be found here.
My solution is using jackson-datatype-hibernate, which thanks to @ZeeMesi. Here's the steps:
Step 1: dependency
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype</groupId>
        <artifactId>jackson-datatype-hibernate4</artifactId>
        <version>2.6.4</version>
    </dependency>

Step 2: spring context
<mvc:annotation-driven>
    <mvc:message-converters>
        <!-- Use the HibernateAware mapper instead of the default -->
        <beans:bean class="org.springframework.http.converter.json.MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter">
            <beans:property name="objectMapper">
                <beans:bean class="com.hersbitcloud.cancercloud.HibernateAwareObjectMapper" />
            </beans:property>
        </beans:bean>
    </mvc:message-converters>
</mvc:annotation-driven>

Step 3: create new class
public class HibernateAwareObjectMapper extends ObjectMapper {
public HibernateAwareObjectMapper() {
    Hibernate4Module hm = new Hibernate4Module();
    registerModule(hm);
}

Then all the lazily fetched object will be null.

Twin Star Exorcists Volume Four – Review
Something you come to learn quickly as an adult is that your childhood is one that should have been cherished. Out parents used to tell us that, when we become adults, we will come to miss being children, but unfortunately as adolescents we often take things for granted, only fully understanding once that time has passed us by. For some, days of old were ones spent in anguish, building them to be the men and women they are today. Many will say that hardship build character, but seemingly at the cost of a lot more.
Rokuro Enmado had a childhood unlike any other. Training to be an Exorcist, he had no choice but to take up arms against fellow trainees who had succumb to the devilish influence of the Kegare, forced upon them by once-friend Yuto Ijika. This once seemingly innocent boy was the catalyst behind the Hinatsuki Tragedy, and he's back to finish what he started. Given a choice, Rokuro must now decide whether or not to join Yuto in his plan to become the ultimate being, or to defeat him as revenge for all those years ago, and to save those around him from what would be their inevitable demise. The choice seems clear, but it's execution will have both Rokuro and Benio walking the thin line that separates life and death.
Yoshiaki Sukeno's Twin Star Exorcists has quickly become quite the hit with Shonen Jump audiences. It has become so popular, in fact, that it now has it's own Anime adaptation. Sticking to the source material, I review volume four of the Manga; a series that has quickly proven to me that it is far more than meets the eye.
Benio and Rokuro must work together to wield their Resonance Attack against Benio's own long-lost brother! Then, with Benio gravely injured, the Basara who killed her parents offers her a terrible alternative to death… – VIZ Media
Unlike many other Shonen Jump titles similar to that of Twin Star Exorcists, it feels as though this series has no character restraint, which is refreshing change from the norm. The main antagonist being a direct influence on the negative experience of Rokuro's past, it is quite obvious that anger would take a front seat during their clash. In many other Manga, it would be made quite obvious that fighting with darkness in one's heart is not the way to defeat your opponent. In Twin Star Exorcists, Rokuro is set free to aggressively beat his opponent to his heart's content, coming to the conclusion that there are more effective ways to go about beating Yuto of his own accord.
Benio Adashino, who is the secondary protagonist of the series, up until this point in time has played second fiddle to Rokuro, being the one that he has come to defend in previous battles. In volume for of the series, she finally meets Rokuro in both strength and determination as she throws aside what was once holding her back for the sake of not only defeating her brother but also to save the lives of many, including Rokuro. Making a deal with her true archenemy, she shows signs of incredible maturity and personality realism, the likes of which I honestly never expected from here, at least…not at this point in time.
Twin Star Exorcists has an odd but interesting story layout, especially for that of a Shonen Jump series. It does not conform to many of the Shonen tropes outside of ones pertaining to battle. Usually in a series like this, the true antagonist of the series would not have made itself so present, but in Twin Star Exorcists the two protagonists have already been thrown into the fray only four volumes in. Twin Star Exorcists has a story structure that you wouldn't normally associate with that of a Shonen Jump title, and while it does take a little getting used it, I think it's an entirely positive aspect of this series.
I have mentioned this in the past, but I do feel as though it's worth mentioning again: Considering Twin Star Exorcists is published by Shonen Jump, a publication directed entirely at young males, this series features an odd level of femininity within it's visual style. As a twenty-something year old with no prejudices I have absolutely no issue with this, but I find it necessary to detail simply because of this publisher's history. Regardless, I feel that the slightly feminine angle makes for some incredibly powerful parallels when compared to that of Yoshiaki Sukeno's battle visuals.
Speaking of which; Sukeno is a masterful illustrator that can wonderfully portray movement of any kind. Unlike Manga like Terra Formars wherein which combat is often difficult to follow, Twin Star Exorcists features an incredibly detailed but easily understandable visual presence that flows like water even during the most erratic combat panels. Yoshiaki Sukeno also knows how to illustrate depth wonderfully, which adds fantastically to the epic nature of the large-scale battles present throughout the Manga. Grand in every single way.
Twin Star Exorcists is beautifully mature for what it is, and yet, being a Shonen Jump Manga, it still features everything you'd expect from it. For me, it was a massive hit instantly, and it has only proven to get more and more enjoyable as further volumes are released. It is a series that makes you care for the characters within it, and anticipate great action to come. It is as true a Shonen Manga as any other, but it features a whole other level of wonder just beneath the surface.
It is a series unlike any I've ever had the privilege of experiencing before, and, at this point in time, it's still in it's early days. I honestly cannot see this series going down in quality as future volumes are released, but to that same note I've also seen incredible Manga fall flat over time. My hope for Twin Star Exorcists is that it continues on it's path of greatness, never straying, always sticking to what it does best while developing what it needs to make it even greater. This is a series for all Shonen Jump fans, young or old, it's not one to miss out on.

Media Mention July 22, 2014
Michael Toner Discusses Growing Popularity of Single-Candidate Super PACs
Michael E. Toner, co-chair of Wiley Rein's Election Law & Government Ethics Practice, was quoted in an article published July 18 in The Washington Post about the increasing number of Super PACs supporting a single federal candidate during the 2014 election cycle, including candidates for the U.S. House of Representatives. The article noted that during earlier election cycles, Super PACs active in multiple races were more prevalent and that certain donors this election cycle were interested in focusing their contributions on behalf of particular candidates running in particular states. "Some of these single-candidate Super PACs have aggressively used that experience to say, 'Hey, give to us — we're not spending across the country, we're not spread too thin,' " Mr. Toner said.

7.1 Footnotes
Benjamin Edward Meara Stiller[2][3] was born on November 30, 1965 in New York City.[4] His father, comedian and actor Jerry Stiller, is from a Jewish family that emigrated from Poland and Galicia in Eastern Europe.[5] His mother, actress Anne Meara (1929–2015), who was from an Irish Catholic background, converted to Reform Judaism after marrying his father.[6][7][8] The family was "never very religious"[9] and celebrated both Hanukkah and Christmas; Stiller had a Bar Mitzvah.[10][11] Stiller's parents frequently took him on the sets of their appearances, including The Mike Douglas Show when he was six.[12] He stated in an interview that he considered his childhood unusual: "In some ways, it was a show-business upbringing—a lot of traveling, a lot of late nights—not what you'd call traditional."[13] His elder sister, Amy, has made appearances in many of his productions, including Reality Bites, DodgeBall: A True Underdog Story, and Zoolander.[14][15][16]
Stiller displayed an early interest in filmmaking and made Super 8 movies with his sister and friends.[17] At nine years old, he made his acting debut as a guest on his mother's short-lived television series, Kate McShane. In the late 1970s, he performed with the New York City troupe NYC's First All Children's Theater, playing several roles, including the title role in Clever Jack and the Magic Beanstalk.[18] After being inspired by the television show Second City Television while in high school, Stiller realized that he wanted to get involved with sketch comedy.[18]
Stiller attended The Cathedral School of St. John the Divine and graduated from the Calhoun School in New York in 1983. He started performing on the cabaret circuit as opening act to the cabaret siren Jadin Wong. Stiller then enrolled as a film student at the University of California, Los Angeles.[19] After nine months, Stiller left school to move back to New York City.[11] He made his way through acting classes, auditioning and trying to find an agent.[20]
When he was approximately 15, Stiller obtained a small part with one line on the television soap opera Guiding Light, although in an interview he characterized his performance as poor.[21] He was later cast in a role in the 1986 Broadway revival of John Guare's The House of Blue Leaves, alongside John Mahoney; the production would garner four Tony Awards.[20] During its run, Stiller produced a satirical mockumentary whose principal was fellow actor Mahoney. His comedic work was well received by the cast and crew of the play, and he followed up with a 10-minute short called The Hustler of Money, a parody of the Martin Scorsese film The Color of Money. The film featured him in a send-up of Tom Cruise's character and Mahoney in the Paul Newman role, only this time as a bowling hustler instead of a pool shark. The short got the attention of Saturday Night Live, which aired it in 1987, and two years later offered him a spot as a writer.[20] In the meantime, he also had a bit part in Steven Spielberg's Empire of the Sun.[22]
In 1989, Stiller wrote and appeared on Saturday Night Live as a featured performer. However, since the show did not want him to make more short films, he left after four episodes.[20] He then put together Elvis Stories, a short film about a fictitious tabloid focused on recent sightings of Elvis Presley.[23] The film starred friends and co-stars John Cusack, Jeremy Piven, Mike Myers, Andy Dick, and Jeff Kahn.[23] The film was considered a success, and led him to develop another film titled Going Back to Brooklyn for MTV.[24]
The Ben Stiller Show
Main article: The Ben Stiller Show
Decision makers at MTV were so impressed with Back to Brooklyn that they offered Stiller a 13-episode show in the experimental "vid-com" format.[25] Titled The Ben Stiller Show, this series mixed comedy sketches with music videos and parodied various television shows, music stars, and films. It starred Stiller, along with main writer Jeff Khan and Harry O'Reilly, with occasional appearances by his parents Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara, and sister Amy Stiller.[25]
Although the show was canceled after its first season, it led to another show titled The Ben Stiller Show, on the Fox Network in 1992. The series aired 12 episodes on Fox, with a 13th unaired episode broadcast by Comedy Central in a later revival.[26] Among the principal writers on The Ben Stiller Show were Stiller and Judd Apatow, with the show featuring the ensemble cast of Stiller, Janeane Garofalo, Andy Dick, and Bob Odenkirk.[27] Both Denise Richards and Jeanne Tripplehorn appeared as extras in various episodes. Throughout its short run, The Ben Stiller Show frequently appeared at the bottom of the ratings, even as it garnered critical acclaim and eventually won an Emmy Award for "Outstanding Writing in a Variety or Music Program" post-humously.[26][28][29]
Directorial debut

After a few minor roles in the early 1990s, in films such as Stella, Highway to Hell and in a cameo, The Nutt House, Stiller devoted his time to writing, fundraising, recruiting cast members, starring in, and directing Reality Bites.[20] The film was produced by Danny DeVito, who later directed Stiller's 2003 film Duplex and produced the 2004 film Along Came Polly.[30] Reality Bites debuted as the highest-grossing film in its opening weekend and received mixed reviews.[31][32]
Stiller joined his parents in the family film Heavyweights (1995), in which he played two roles, and then had a brief uncredited role in Adam Sandler's Happy Gilmore (1996).[33][34] Next, he had lead roles in If Lucy Fell and Flirting with Disaster, before tackling his next directorial effort with The Cable Guy, which starred Jim Carrey. Stiller once again was featured in his own film, as twins. The film received mixed reviews, but was noted for paying the highest salary for an actor up to that point, as Jim Carrey received $20 million for his work in the film.[35] The film also connected Stiller with future Frat Pack members Jack Black and Owen Wilson.
Also in 1996, MTV invited Stiller to host the VH1 Fashion Awards. Along with SNL writer Drake Sather, Stiller developed a short film for the awards about a male model known as Derek Zoolander. It was so well received that he developed another short film about the character for the 1997 VH1 Fashion Awards and finally remade the skit into a film.[20]
Comedic work
In 1998, Stiller put aside his directing ambitions to star in a surprise hit with a long-lasting cult following, the Farrelly Brothers' There's Something About Mary, alongside Cameron Diaz, which accelerated Stiller's acting career. That year, he also starred in several dramas, including Zero Effect, Your Friends & Neighbors, and Permanent Midnight. Stiller was invited to take part in hosting the Music Video awards, for which he developed a parody of the Backstreet Boys and performed a sketch with his father, commenting on his current career.[36]
In 1999, he starred in three films, including Mystery Men, where he played a superhero wannabe called Mr. Furious. He returned to directing with a new spoof television series for Fox titled Heat Vision and Jack, starring Jack Black, however, the show was not picked up by Fox after its pilot episode and the series was cancelled.[37]
In 2000, Stiller starred in three more films, including one of his most recognizable roles, a male nurse named Gaylord "Greg" Focker in Meet the Parents, opposite Robert De Niro.[38] The film was well received by critics, grossed over $330 million worldwide, and spawned two sequels.[39][40] Also in 2000, MTV again invited Stiller to make another short film, and he developed Mission: Improbable, a spoof of Tom Cruise's role in Mission: Impossible II and other films.[41]
In 2001, Stiller directed his third feature film, Zoolander, starring himself as Derek Zoolander. The film featured multiple cameos from a variety of celebrities, including Donald Trump, Paris Hilton, Lenny Kravitz, Heidi Klum, and David Bowie, among others. The film was banned in Malaysia (as the plot centered on an assassination attempt of a Malaysian prime minister)[42] while shots of the World Trade Center were digitally removed and hidden for the film's release after the September 11 terrorist attacks.[43]

After Stiller worked with Owen Wilson in Zoolander, they joined together again for The Royal Tenenbaums.[43] Over the next two years, Stiller continued with the lackluster box office film Duplex and several cameos in Orange County and Nobody Knows Anything!.[44][45][46] He also guest-starred on several television shows, including an appearance in an episode of the television series The King of Queens in a flashback as the father of the character Arthur (played by Jerry Stiller).[47] He also made a guest appearance on World Wrestling Entertainment's WWE Raw.[48]
In 2004, Stiller appeared in six different films, all of which were comedies, and include some of his highest grossing films. They include Starsky & Hutch, Envy, DodgeBall: A True Underdog Story, an uncredited cameo in Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Along Came Polly and Meet the Fockers. While the critical flop Envy only grossed $14.5 million worldwide,[49] his most successful film of the year was Meet the Fockers, which grossed over $516.6 million worldwide.[50] As well as these, he also made extended guest appearances on Curb Your Enthusiasm and Arrested Development in the same year. In 2005, Stiller began his first attempt at a computer-animated film with Madagascar, which performed so well at the box office that it resulted in a sequel released in 2008 and another in 2012.
In 2006, Stiller had cameo roles in School for Scoundrels and Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny, for which he served as executive producer. In December, Stiller starred in the lead role of Night at the Museum. Although not a critical favorite, it earned over $115 million in ten days.[51] In 2007, Stiller starred alongside Malin Åkerman in the romantic comedy The Heartbreak Kid. The film earned over $100 million worldwide despite receiving mostly negative reviews.[52][53] Tropic Thunder, a film he directed, co-wrote and co-produced, and in which he starred with Robert Downey, Jr. and Jack Black, was released on August 13, 2008. In May 2009, he starred with Amy Adams in the sequel Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian.[54] In 2010, Stiller made a brief cameo in Joaquin Phoenix's mockumentary I'm Still Here and played the lead role in the comedy-drama Greenberg. He again portrayed Greg Focker in the critically panned yet successful Little Fockers, the second sequel to Meet the Parents. Stiller had planned to voice the main character in Megamind, but later dropped out while still remaining a producer and voicing a minor character in the film.[55]
In 2011, Stiller starred with Eddie Murphy and Alan Alda in Tower Heist, about a group of maintenance workers planning a heist in a residential skyscraper.[56]
Stiller produced, directed, and starred in The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, which was released in 2013.
"Frat Pack"
Main article: Frat Pack
Stiller is the "acknowledged leader" of the Frat Pack, a core group of actors that has worked together in multiple films.

text: Q: Is it possible to have npm get a dependency from local files but fallback to a published package? I'm developing both an application and a package which it will depend on. I'd like to use git submodules to include the package in my dev environment and build using a published package from npm when I compile for production. What is the easiest way to achieve something like this?


Does the negative correlation between the cost of corporate loans and the G-Index of Gompers et al. (2003) uncovered by chava et al. (2009) imply that adopting anti-takeover provisions lowers the cost of debt? In this paper, we argue against such a conclusion. We present evidence that an omitted variable, firm asset volatility, can account for the statistically significant relation between the G-Index and corporate loan spreads found by chava et al. (2009). After controlling for firms' asset volatility using estimates of equity volatility and instrumental-variable methods, we show there is no longer a robust, statistically significant relation between the G-Index and loan spreads.


Find out about traffic offences, including blood alcohol content limits and penalties that can be imposed on the different driver licence types in Western Australia.
On or after the 24th October 2016 if a person commits and is convicted in Western Australia of any of the following alcohol interlock offences they will be required to participate in the Alcohol Interlock Scheme. On conviction the person will be disqualified from driving and any driver's licence and/or learners permit held by that person will be cancelled.
The WA Alcohol Interlock Scheme aims to reduce the road safety risk posed by drink drivers by introducing a mandatory, user pays, performance based scheme in which alcohol interlock devices provide separation of drinking and driving behaviour.
A driver, who commits and is convicted of an alcohol interlock offence in Western Australia on or after the 24th October 2016, will be known as an 'alcohol offender'. An alcohol offender who is subsequently granted a driver's licence will have their licence endorsed with an interlock condition and will be known as an 'interlock-restricted driver'.
An interlock-restricted driver may only drive a vehicle fitted with an approved alcohol interlock.
The interlock condition will only be removed from a person's driver's licence when they have participated for a minimum period of time and demonstrated the separation of drinking and driving behaviour for a continuous 180 day period immediately prior to exiting the scheme by satisfying all requirements of the scheme.
The WA Alcohol Interlock Scheme aims to reduce the road safety risk posed by drink drivers by introducing a mandatory, performance-based scheme in which alcohol interlock devices provide separation between drinking and driving. The scheme includes support by means of an alcohol assessment and treatment component and extension of time on the interlock devices for those found to be non-compliant.
Drivers convicted of alcohol related offences on seeking authorisation to drive, will have their licence endorsed with an interlock condition restricting their driving to vehicles fitted with an approved alcohol interlock device.
There are a variety of penalties that can be imposed on drivers who commit traffic offences. These include fines, licence sanctions (suspensions and cancellations) and in some cases imprisonment.
Penalties can be imposed by Courts or by infringement notices.
Fines are imposed for a range of traffic offences.
Certain traffic offences attract demerit points in addition to fines.
If you are a Novice Driver the Graduated Demerit Point system will apply. The number of demerit points you can accumulate before you are disqualified from holding or obtaining a licence is reduced.
All other drivers can accumulate up to 12 demerit points within a three year period before being disqualified from holding a licence for a minimum of three months.
If you are convicted of a drink driving offence.
If you have a provisional licence, and are convicted of certain traffic offences. (Your licence will be cancelled and you will be required to make an application for a new licence when the disqualification period has finished).
An immediate disqualification notice may be served if you are detected driving with a blood alcohol content of or above 0.08 or refuse to provide a sample of breath, blood or urine.
Imposing a zero Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) limit on certain driver categories recognises the increased risk that drivers pose to passengers and other road users when driving with alcohol in their blood.
Alcohol Offenders and Interlock restricted driver licence holders.
Drivers of passenger vehicles with capacity to carry more than 12 adult passengers, including the driver.
Drivers of vehicles carrying dangerous goods.
Furthermore, if you are subject to a zero BAC limit when driving, you will also be subject to a zero BAC when supervising a novice (learner) driver.
The zero BAC limit applies to Alcohol offenders and Interlock restricted drivers and means that you cannot have any alcohol in your body while driving.
An Alcohol offender is a person who has been convicted of an alcohol interlock offence committed on or after the 24th October 2016.
An Interlock restricted driver's licence holder is any person who holds a driver's licence that is endorsed with an I condition. This includes a person who holds an Interlock restricted licence issued in WA or from another jurisdiction.
The zero BAC limit affects Novice drivers and means that you cannot have any alcohol in your body while driving.
A driver from overseas who has not held a driver's licence for at least two years.
A first time learner's permit holder.
The holder of a provisional driver's licence.
The holder of an extraordinary driver's licence.
The zero BAC limit affects taxi drivers and means that you cannot have any alcohol in your body while driving a taxi that is carrying passengers for hire or reward.
The legislation recognises that many taxis are used by operators or owners for private purposes when not being operated as a taxi. Similarly, some taxis operate only during peak periods and for the majority of the week they are used as private vehicles.
As such, the zero BAC limit only applies to a person driving a taxi when it is being used to carry passengers for hire or reward. If using a taxi for private purposes the 0.05% BAC limit applies.
When a person is driving a vehicle that is equipped to seat more than 12 adult passengers, including the driver, the driver cannot have any alcohol in his or her body when carrying any passengers, regardless if they are paying or non-paying passengers.
If the driver is driving the vehicle alone with no passengers, the 0.05% BAC applies.
The extension of the zero BAC limit affects Omnibus drivers and means that you cannot have any alcohol in your body while driving an Omnibus that is carrying passengers for hire or reward.
When carrying any passengers, whether or not for hire or reward.
The 0.05% BAC limit will apply to the driver when the vehicle is not carrying passengers.
A zero BAC when carrying passengers for hire or reward.
The 0.05% BAC limit will apply to the driver when the driver is alone or is carrying non-paying passengers, e.g. non-paying family members.
Examples of omnibuses include small charter vehicles such as limousines or luxury sedan vehicles, coaches and buses used for tours and/or charter. Novelty vehicles such as customised motorcycles and hot rods, when used for the carriage of passengers for hire and reward.
The legislation recognises that some of the smaller omnibuses (defined for the purposes of the Act to be vehicles with 12 or less passenger seats including the driver) are used by operators or owners for private purposes when not being operated as an omnibus.
As such, the zero BAC only applies to a person driving a smaller omnibus when it is being used to carry passengers for hire or reward. If using such an omnibus for private purposes the driver is subject to the 0.05% BAC limit.
The zero BAC limit affects drivers of vehicles with a Gross Combination Mass (GCM) in excess of 22,500 kg and means that you cannot have any alcohol in your body while driving such vehicles.
The GCM of a vehicle is the maximum loaded mass of the vehicle, including any trailers and their load. The GCM of a vehicle can be easily determined by checking the details indicated on the vehicle licence document.
Note that it is the driver's responsibility to confirm the vehicle's GCM. Where that weight exceeds 22,500 kg the zero BAC limit will apply to the driver.
The zero BAC limit affects drivers of vehicles carrying dangerous goods and means that a person driving a vehicle while it is carrying dangerous goods cannot have any alcohol in their body.
The consequences of a crash involving a motor vehicle carrying dangerous goods, as defined in the Dangerous Goods Safety Act 2004, could be severe. Dangerous goods may be highly volatile or may be noxious and present a health or environmental risk if spilled.
The carriage of dangerous goods elevates the risk in the event of a crash due the nature of the load.
As a result, drivers of motor vehicles transporting dangerous goods are required to be unimpaired by alcohol, ensuring they have a zero BAC when driving such a vehicle, at those times when that vehicle is carrying dangerous goods.
A vehicle that is a 'placarded vehicle' pursuant to the Dangerous Goods Safety (Explosives) Regulations 2007, regulation 107.
The zero BAC limit affects drivers who hold an Extraordinary Licence and means that they cannot have any alcohol in their body while driving. This law applies to all Extraordinary Licence holders irrespective of when the extraordinary licence was granted.
Driving under the Influence (0.15 BAC).
Refusing a breath, blood or urine sample.
Driving in excess of 0.08 BAC (2nd or subsequent offence).
On the day a prescribed offender is granted a licence.
The extension of the zero BAC affects drivers of passenger vehicles with capacity to carry more than 12 adult passengers including the driver (for example, a bus) and vehicles with a Gross Combination Mass (GCM) in excess of 22,500 kg.
This means that drivers of these vehicles cannot have any alcohol in their bodies while driving such vehicles.
The law recognises that the application of zero BAC could impede the ability of some emergency services employees and volunteers to respond to an emergency, if in the course of responding to the incident they are required to drive one or other of these vehicles.
As such, the law provides an exemption from zero BAC for certain drivers (prescribed in regulation and outlined below). In this situation, the driver will continue to be subject to 0.05% BAC limit.
The exemption will ensure that those who respond to emergencies such as floods, fires, cyclones and earthquakes and participate in search and rescue missions will continue to be able to respond to call-outs at short notice. These people are vital to the State's emergency response capabilities.

When driving a passenger vehicle or heavy vehicle, as defined above, in circumstances other than responding to an incident, zero BAC limit will apply.
An incident is defined in the Fire and Emergency Services Authority of Western Australia Act 1998 as a fire, a hazardous material incident, a natural disaster; or an accident or other event that may require the carrying out of a rescue operation including search and rescue and marine search and rescue or an assistance operation; or a monitoring activity.
A fine and accrual of demerit points.
A disqualification may also be applied.
Drivers of vehicles carrying dangerous or explosive goods.
Extraordinary licence holders and recently disqualified drivers.
* At certain holiday periods (e.g. Easter and Christmas) and on long weekends, demerit points are doubled for alcohol, speed and some other offences.
If you are caught driving with a Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) equal to or above 0.05 and less than 0.08, you may either be infringed or required to appear in court.
The disqualification for repeat offences may differ and may order a licence cancellation, rather than a licence suspension. The above information is provided as a guide only.
Independent legal advice should be sought to determine the specific disqualification that will apply in individual circumstances.
More information about these and other offences can be found on the Road Safety Commission's website.
Please refer to the Road Safety Commission website for speeding offences for vehicles with a GCM of 22,500 kg or more.
Periods when 'double demerit' points are in force are publicised through the Western Australian media, but you must obey BAC and speed limits at all times.
The value of a penalty unit is $50.00. These penalties are reviewed from time to time. They are correct at date of publication.
* At certain holiday periods (e.g Easter and Christmas) and on long weekends, demerit points are doubled for seat belt, driving, and riding in open load-space offences.
Periods when 'double demerit' points are in force are publicised through the Western Australian media.
** This offence may result in the impounding or confiscation of a vehicle.

Q: how to stop repeat timer? I am a beginner when it comes to iOS App development. I want to move a label from left to right until it reaches half the screen width - i.e. the label should move by 240px (the label moves left to right like a marquee).
I have used NSTimer and I want to stop the timer when the label reaches half the view's width.
I have used the following code but it moves the label out of the view:
- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    timer = [[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:0.09 target:self selector:@selector(time:) userInfo:nil repeats:YES] retain];
}

- (void)time:(NSTimer *)theTimer {
    label.center = CGPointMake(label.center.x+3.5, label.center.y);

    NSLog(@"point:%@", label);

    if (label.center.x < - (label.bounds.size.width/2)) {
        label.center = CGPointMake(320+(label.bounds.size.width/2), label.center.y);
    }
}

How can I solve this, please?

A: If you want to stop the repeating timer, you can use
if (/*You label is in position*/)
    [myTimer invalidate];

But that's not the normal way to do animation in iOS, try this instead:
CGRect endFrame = /*The frame of your label in end position*/
[UIView animateWithDuration:0.5 animations:^{ myLabel.frame = endFrame;}];

A: To stop a timer, do [timer invalidate].
You can't "pause" a timer, so once you do this you'll need to call another timer.

A: correct way to invalidate your timer is
[myTimer invalidate];
myTimer = nil;
