Q: C# syntax for passing a class type as argument? I want to in a sense generalize creation of Controls for ease of use.
public static Control mkC(TYPE type, int x, int y, int w, int h)
{
    Control c;
    c = new type();
    c.Location = new Point(x, y);
    c.Size = new Size(w, h);
    return (type)c;
}

main()
{
    TextBox t = mkC(TextBox, 1,1,100,100);
}

But i dont know the exact way of doing what i want to do.

A: Use Generics
public static T CreateInstance<T>(int x, int y, int w, int h) where T : Control, new()
{
    T c = new T();
    c.Location = new Point(x, y);
    c.Size = new Size(w, h);
    return c;
}

Then use it as
main()
{
    TextBox t = CreateInstance<TextBox>(1,1,100,100);
}

Also, I'll reduce the number of parameters by passing a Rectangle struct.
public static T CreateInstance<T>(Rectangle rect) where T : Control, new()
{
    T c = new T();
    c.Location = rect.Location;
    c.Size = rect.Size;
    return c;
}

Then use it as
main()
{
    TextBox t = CreateInstance<TextBox>(new Rectangle(1,1,100,100));
}

A: Mentioning two options here:
Below option is on the same line on which you have mentioned. You need to pass the type as argument and then use CreateInstance() method of type. Also will have to cast the instance to specific control.
        public Control CreateControlInstance(Type type, int x, int y, int w, int h)
        {
            Control c = (Control) Activator.CreateInstance(type);
            c.Location = new Point(x, y);
            c.Size = new Size(w, h);
            return c;
        }
    private main()
    {
        TextBox t = (TextBox) CreateControlInstance(typeof (TextBox), 1, 1, 100, 100);
    }

Also you can write the generic function like mentioned below:
    public static T CreateControlInstance<T>(int x, int y, int w, int h) where T : Control, new()
    {
        T c = new T();
        c.Location = new Point(x, y);
        c.Size = new Size(w, h);
        return c;
    }

    private main()
    {
        TextBox t = CreateControlInstance<TextBox>(1, 1, 100, 100);
    }

Statement on "EMF-Harmonizing" Chips, Pendants & Other Gizmos
We currently do not recommend or endorse EMF-harmonizing chips (phone stickers), pendants or other similar gizmos as part of the Electro-Pollution Fix course.
We have also decided that posts related to these products inside the members-only Facebook group are not allowed, and will be deleted.
We both are against censorship in general (considering the massive amount of censorship we're seeing towards the entire topic of EMFs/5G!), and this is not an attempt to completely ignore that these harmonizing solutions might bring benefits.
But at the moment, these tools constitute a distraction and a source of confusion that we consider might cause more harm than good for our students.
Here are the reasons behind this decision:
1. Confusion
Hundreds of different products claiming to "harmonize" EMFs emitted by cell phones, wifi and bluetooth devices are available online, and a lot of our students are spending a lot of time and energy trying to figure out which are worth it.
This is an important source of confusion which might interfere with their education.
2. Impossible to compare
Since these devices do not directly reduce the measurable amount of EMFs emitted by a source (ex: wifi router), it's impossible to compare one device to another, or to even tell if some of these devices are complete scams.
3. Claims of EMF protection unsubstantiated
Many of these "harmonizing" devices promise to "protect 100% against 5G" or make similarly outrageous claims.
Some manufacturers offer proof that their devices can help alleviate EMF-related symptoms or EMF-related stress, but these claims of complete protection are rooted in marketing, not sound science.
Therefore, these devices give users a dangerous and false sense of security.
At best, we can say that some of these products can offer partial protect against the symptoms associated with exposure to electro-pollution.
4. Limited budget of our students
We surveyed well over a thousand people who want to reduce EMFs in their life, and the #1 reason most of them struggled to take action is because they didn't have enough money to invest in EMF-related solutions. Lack of time was also an important issue.
For these reasons, we prefer to have our students invest in EMF solutions that have been scientifically proven to work, such as better light bulbs, EMF meters, electrical work, kill switches, dirty electricity filters, shielding materials or a home EMF assessment, just to give a few examples.
EMF reduction can get costly very fast, which is why our goal with Electro-Pollution Fix is to help our students invest their money where it really counts.
The science around EMF-harmonizing devices is unclear, and unlike what some manufacturers claim, they very likely do not offer 100% protection from electro-pollution
We do not think you should spend your time and money on these solutions. There are countless other EMF-reducing solutions you should invest in first -- all of which will be explained in detail in this course.
If you already use one of these devices and feel better, feel free to continue using it! We do not think it can cause harm, except in situations where it gives you a false sense of security.
Your teachers,
Nick & Brian

Questioning Evangelism
Engaging People's Hearts the Way Jesus Did
Edition: April 27, 2017
Publication date: April 27, 2017
Imprint: Kregel Publications
Category: Ministry
Author: Randy Newman
Sometimes the best answer is a question. It's the way Jesus often talked with people as He led them into discussions about the issues that mattered most.
Campus Crusade for Christ veteran Randy Newman has been using a questioning style of evangelism for years. In this provocative book, he provides practical insights to help Christians engage others in meaningful spiritual conversations. Asking questions, Newman suggests, doesn't tell unbelievers what to think but instead challenges how we think about people, their questions, and our message.
A perennial best-seller, the second edition includes a chapter in which the author reflects on the success of the book and what that has taught him, as well as a new foreword by Lee Strobel.
"Distilled out of twenty years of personal evangelism, this book reflects both a deep grasp of biblical theology and a penetrating compassion for people--and finds a way forward in wise, probing questions. How very much like the Master Himself!"
--D. A. Carson, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
"Questioning Evangelism steps outside the boundaries of evangelism as usual and tackles the tougher issues of our modern day."
--Mitch Glaser, Chosen People Ministries
Randy Newman has served in campus ministry for over thirty years. He now teaches at several evangelical seminaries and ministers in a variety of churches. He is currently a senior teaching fellow with The C. S. Lewis Institute in Washington, DC. Find him at randydavidnewman.com.

On Saturday 3rd March, TEDxWarwick held their tenth annual conference: this year, themed 'Dare to Defy'. GLOBUS' correspondents were invited to cover the event. This piece will comprise the first in a series commenting on the various presentations made by the conference's prestigious speakers. We begin by considering the case for nuclear fusion as presented by Dr. Melanie Windridge, physicist and Communications Consultant at Tokamak Energy, a company positioned at the cutting-edge of commercially-viable fusion technology research.
Nuclear fusion is an in-development form of energy source far more powerful than its so-called 'opposite', nuclear fission. Where fission consists of splitting atoms to release energy in the form of heat, nuclear fusion involves the heating of hydrogen atoms to extreme, until they join to become helium – and thereby release heat.
Nuclear fusion already exists naturally in our solar system. In the sun, specifically, intense gravitational forces serve to keep together a vast chain reaction of fusion combinations. The heat released in each process of joining provides the energy to engender the next.
The process has also been created artificially on Earth within experimental fusion reactors. However, due to the immense heat – in the form of superheated plasma – generated by the process, conventional materials alone are unable to contain the process: huge electromagnets, with intensely powerful magnetic fields, are required to suspend the materials inside the reactors. In all cases to date, more energy has, consequently, had to be put in to the experiments than has been derived from the reactions. This result is not altogether helpful, given that the process is intended for use in electricity generation.
Such a set of results might lead some to conclude that viable electricity generation from nuclear fusion is impossibile, let alone a commercially viable. As a prospect for investment, however, fusion energy is rife with opportunity: it generates very few emissions, is (almost) entirely renewable, and is able to produce vast amounts of energy. In the fight against fossil fuels, nuclear fusion power might potentially provide a constant, plentiful supply of electricity that does not compromise on environmental goals.
Nuclear fusion is not a silver bullet, however: construction of generation facilities is expensive and time-consuming. Opponents also argue that concentrating energy production in fewer, more powerful facilities might present more physical security problems than it solves in energy security.
At present, perhaps exploiting the opportunity is out of our technological and scientific reach. The industry estimates that commercially viable technology will not be available until 2030.
Yet, as the proverb goes: everything is impossible… until it's not.

Discussion in 'Introductions' started by Propagate, 8th Sep, 2016.

Hi, I'm Tony, (Propagate from Property Chat).
I turned 40 this year and I'm a Pom! Moved to Straya' in 2007 on an Independent Skilled Visa for an adventure and never left.
Became a True Blue Aussie in 2010 and was given an Aussie passport for my trouble.
I live on the Mornington Peninsula with my partner of 17 years, a stray cat that adopted us and a neurotic rescued Great Dane called Pluto and no kids.
I started work at the ripe old age of 16 as an apprentice draftsman om the River Tees in Middlesbrough where I was born and bred, spent the next 7 years learning about North Sea oil rigs and how to draw & build them, until all the heavy industry in the area dried up and I made the switch to structural steel detailing, (shopping centers, warehouses, stadiums etc).
I've drawn some great projects over the years, Arsenal "Emirates" Stadium and Aintree Racecourse Grandstands in the UK for example and over here Rod Lava Arena's Margaret Court redevelopment along with more hospitals, convention centers and warehouses than I'd care to remember.
I loved the company I worked for in the UK, we were a small team in a sub-contract office that worked for most of the UK biggest fabricators. We had a great reputation and got a lot of prestigious projects due to that.
Leaving that place and starting work in Oz in 2007 was an eye opener. Going from well engineered, architecturally complex buildings to poorly thought out, poorly engineered sheds and shops was depressing. Add to that the quality of the draftspeople I was now working alongside was pretty depressing.
In my first employment here I quickly rose through the ranks, (believe me, that wasn't difficult), and ended up a gloried babysitter. I spent more time building cases for arbitration trying to get us out of being sued for doing such bad work than I did drawing my own projects it just wasn't funny.
The company decided to make a play for a MAJOR upcoming contract that we were woefully ill prepared to do. I told them under no uncertain terms that we should even be thinking about it, and if the insisted then there's no way I'd be running it or having anything to do with it. Fast forward a few months and I get called in by the Directors, "so, we're looking good for that project and we'd like to to go to the city and run it". I walked out of their office, write my notice and went back in to hand deliver it. There's a bit more flesh to that story but that's essentially the jist of it.
The look on their faces was priceless. It's not the first time I've walked away from employment on a principle, I figured what else can you do? I was in a high level position, had absolutely no faith in the staff or management, was expected to run an enormous project that we simply couldn't handle and on top of that traipse to the city every day to do it. They had the time and options to staff up correctly and didn't bother, so the only thing I had left in my arsenal was to walk. (To give you an idea, we had two teams on two software platforms, 5 or so one one and 3 (including me and two numpties) on the other, this project needed the second software platform and needed 20 people on it! - it is virtually impossible to get one or two GOOD draftspersons on board that are proficient at the required level on it, never mind trying to find 17!).
A week before I was due to leave I was called in an offered a 50% pay rise to stay and the guarantee that I wouldn't have to have anything to do with that job if they won it. I like to think I'm a man of principle generally, so I thanked them for the offer, wished them luck and went on my way.
I was totally disillusioned with work by then. I started at another office and vowed to keep my head under the trenches, do just enough work to earn my wages and try not to stand out like a shiny penny. That worked for almost 2 years but it's very hard to keep that up when most of the people you work with are useless! Unsurprisingly, that company folded.
From the ashes of that one a few of us stayed on with the boss from that company to help him set up another. I wasn't best pleased as he owed me a fortune in unpaid Super and lost wages, but it was the best of a decidedly bad bunch. Most of the dead wood was gone, we had an OK team and I ended up as number 2 again. We actually started to get some good projects that were interesting, made some great contacts and quickly between the other project manager and myself started to get a name as the go-to guys for anything complex or awkward. That was 6 years ago.
Over the years my boss started to fast approach 70 and my colleague and I had discussed setting up on our own a few times in the passed, due to the bosses age we thought we'd sit it out, save up, make contacts and wait for him to retire, which would make for a much easier exit than if we pulled the rug out from under him.
And so it came to pass, he announced his retirement in May and by the start of June I had a new business partner, a business, two employees and premises!
It seems our old boss had rubbed a lot of people up the wrong way over the years, (as he did me to be honest), as soon as people got wind we'd gone out on our own the tenders started flooding in. We have been swamped since starting up and have turned a good chunk of work away.
So, happy days so far. My new office is walking distance form home, we're getting some good projects and we're passed the initial 3 months stage so cash-flow is starting to look way better now that invoices are being paid.
This will do nicely for me now, we're a good size to be able to keep the quality up, which will mean repeat work and projections at the moment look like we may roughly double what our employed wages would have been. I'm happy with that, I'd rather that than do what a lot of small drawing offices do, ramp up when there's work around then end up with a huge wages bill to feed when a big project goes south and they go bust. I've seen it over and over.
As it is, we're a good size and low overheads so we are able to compete with the bigger offices on medium sized jobs and the single detailers on the small jobs.
My company name is an amalgam of my surname and my business partners surname (Besterfield & Beaumont - Beaufield Drafting).
I knocked up a quick and dirty website to kick us off, I'll update it when we have more of our own projects in the bank.
www.beaufield.com.au
...and if anyone is interested in this sort of stuff, there's a bunch of my old projects from the UK on my old site at www.besterfield.com (forgive it's age, some of the models no longer work and it hasn't been updated in donkeys years, I made it as on online CV to send out here when I was looking for work from the UK).
Cheers and hope to learn a lot from the new forum, and also to share my story along the way as we learn and grow.
Tony.
TLDR:- Was a draffy, became a different kind of draffy, worked for a great company, worked for several rubbish companies, started my own company.

Hundreds of flights in Chicago cancelled due to winter storm
A deicing agent is applied to a SkyWest airplane before its takeoff, Friday, Jan. 18, 2019, at O'Hare International Airport in Chicago. The National Weather Service issued winter storm warnings from the Dakotas, across the Great Lakes states and into New England. The weather service at one point warned that conditions in New England over the weekend "could approach blizzard criteria." Ice was also a possibility in some areas in the storm's path.

DETROIT -- A plane carrying 129 people skidded Saturday from a slick Chicago runway and a plow driver was killed when his truck rolled over outside Kansas City following a winter storm that covered many parts of the Midwest in snow and ice.
No injuries were reported on the United Airlines flight at O'Hare International Airport as it arrived Saturday morning from Phoenix, Chicago Fire officials said. The massive storm which dumped 10 inches (25 centimetres) of snow on some areas in the Midwest prompted the cancellation of nearly 1,000 flights at Chicago's airports. The average delay at O'Hare was nearly an hour Saturday afternoon.
Kansas Department of Transportation snowplow Stephen Windler, 25, died about 6 a.m. Saturday on U.S. Highway 69, according to the Wichita Eagle . A police crash report says his truck "travelled to the right, traversing the shoulder and drove into the grass" before it rolled over. Windler was thrown from the vehicle which landed on top of him.
The storm moved Saturday toward the Northeast and New England. Some northern parts of New England could see up to 18 inches (46 centimetres) of snow.
A 15-vehicle crash blocked a section of Interstate 55 in southeastern Missouri near Ste. Genevieve Saturday afternoon and drivers were urged to find an alternative route. In Detroit, many motorists were moving well below posted speed limits along freeways due to slushy conditions. Amtrak cancelled some trains Saturday from Chicago to Washington and New York and between New York and Boston and Pennsylvania on Sunday.
In Nebraska, authorities closed Omaha's Eppley Airfield on Friday afternoon after a Southwest Airlines plane slid off an ice-slicked runway. No one was injured. The airfield later reopened.
The snow was part of a wall of hazardous weather that moved from the Dakotas across the Great Lakes states. The storm brought snow, ice and strong winds, followed by deep cold. The highest snowfall totals were expected in Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine, which could see up to 18 inches (46) centimetres.
But some Midwesterners weren't going to let a little winter weather keep them from going outside.
In downtown Detroit, Celeste Tremmel was out training for a marathon amid heavy and steady snowfall.
"When you run a marathon, you run no matter the weather," said Tremmel, who plans to run a March marathon in South Carolina.
Running in snow is "like running in sand, so you go a lot slower and it's a lot more work," she said. "I'm really tired ... but 40 degrees, wind and hail is worse."
Further east, the National Weather Service in Albany, New York, said snow could fall at a rate of 1 to 3 inches (2.5-7.5 centimetres) an hour, creating "difficult to impossible travel conditions" in areas.
The storm prompted the cancellation of a Special Olympics competition in upstate New York. Nearly 200 athletes from around New York state were expected to compete in snowshoeing, snowboarding, cross country, and Nordic and Alpine skiing at West Mountain, just outside Glens Falls.
In New York City, the worst of the storm was expected from Saturday afternoon through Sunday afternoon, with snow accumulations of 3-6 inches (7.5-15 centimetres), followed by rain that could turn to ice as temperatures drop later Sunday. Single-digit temperatures could last into Monday. Strong wind gusts beginning Sunday afternoon could bring down snow- or ice-burdened tree limbs and power lines.
Following the storm system, some areas of the Midwest were expecting high winds and bitter cold.
In Iowa, temperatures in the teens Saturday were expected to drop below zero (-17 Celsius) overnight, producing wind chills as low as 20-below (-29 Celsius) by Sunday morning.

ULM lost at Stephen F. Austin on Tuesday night.(Photo: File photo)
NACOGDOCHES, Texas – Stephen F. Austin scored all of its runs in the seventh and eighth innings to ultimately defeat ULM 6-2 on Tuesday night at Jaycees Field.
SFA (20-21) took the lead in the seventh inning. The Lumberjacks got on the board after a passed ball, then added a hit-by-pitch, two singles and a walk in the frame that made it a 4-2 margin. A leadoff homer in the eighth inning by Kyle Thornell padded their advantage.
Cade Stone led the game off with a two-strike hit by pitch, then Anthony Herrera followed with a single through the left side. The Warhawks succeeded with consecutive sacrifices, first on a Jacob Stockton bunt and second a Danny Springer fly ball to deep center field, to take a 1-0 lead.
ULM (15-26) went up 2-0 on just the second pitch of the fourth inning. Springer continued his torrid pace from the weekend with a towering home run to left field that easily cleared the fence.
SFA did not reach second base until the seventh inning. The Warhawks had turned a double play and thrown out a base-stealer in that span.
Cole Hendrix went six scoreless innings and allowed just three hits and a walk. Matthew Reeves was charged with the loss. SFA's Eric Polivka got the win after seven innings of work.

Easter eggs are perfect in many forms; hard-boiled and dyed, colorful plastic and filled with treats, or even ceramic collectibles. But if you were to ask us our favorite way to enjoy Easter eggs, it would be to eat them.
No, not the actual eggs (although peeling off the colorful shells and eat them hard-boiled is certainly plausible); there has been a recent surge of sweets, treats and recipes all inspired by colorful Easter eggs. From frosted cookies to surprise Rice Krispies Treats, we have rounded up our favorite ways to enjoy the best treats of the Easter season – all in egg form!
Dipped in dyed white chocolate and covered in pretty icing designs, our Easter Egg Chocolate-Covered Strawberries make for an impressive Easter treat. Who says chocolate-covered strawberries are just a romantic dessert?
Popcorn balls shaped like eggs? How cute is that? These Popcorn-Dipped Eggs from The Popcorn Factory are a mix of salty and sweet with popcorn dipped in sweet confectioners coating and sprinkles with colorful sprinkles.
Egg treats don't necessarily have to have an egg shape. This kid-friendly punch recipe is inspired by the tie-dyed colors of Eater eggs, all in one delicious drinkable glass. Serve in a clear cup or mason jar to really show off the layered colors!
These buttercream-frosted cookies are sweet enough, but the egg carton packaging just makes them irresistible. The collection of pastel-colored Egg Carton Cutout Cookies from Cheryl's will make a pretty edition to any Easter celebration.
Not only are these Rice Krispies Treats shaped like Easter eggs, they also come filled with some surprise candy, just like the plastic Easter eggs you found as a kid! Drizzle with colored icing and sprinkles for a fun, festive treat.
If you aren't a pro in the baking department, then these Easter Egg-Shaped Mini Brownie Cakes from 1-800 Baskets are right up your alley. Perfectly iced in bright pastel colors and designs, an order of these will really impress your family – and make the Easter Bunny jealous!
Chocolate macaroons are surprisingly easy to make, especially in the shape of nests. Top these chocolate nests with some small candy Easter eggs for the perfect themed and seasonal treat.
Marshmallow and chocolate is a common pairing around Easter, and we can see why. Fluffy marshmallow covered in delicious milk chocolate, what could be better? Order these Milk Chocolate Marshmallow Eggs from Fannie May for a more sophisticated (yet equally delicious) Easter egg dessert.

The planting this year will be on Holley Street. The gathering site is the Monika Andrews Park starting at 10 a.m. Water and refreshments provided. Volunteers will be instructed on digging and planting the crabapple trees and move on to 15 planting sites on the south side of Holley Street. The work is scheduled to end by noon. All are welcome to join in. Dress for digging, rain or shine. Shovels are provided by the college facilities crew, usually enough for everyone. Bring one if you can.
In 2005, while a professor of Anthropology at the College at Brockport, Mayor Margay Blackman was approached by one of her student majors, Mark Beckwith, about an internship. He loved forestry, so Blackman recommended he pursue "urban forestry" in the village, mixing trees with people and more suitable to his major.
Intern Beckwith surveyed other municipalities and suggested establishing a Village Tree Board and becoming a "Tree City USA," a designation given by the National Arbor Day Foundation. He also suggested conducting a computer inventory of village trees and revising the village's trees and vegetation ordinances. All his suggestions have been accomplished with the Tree Board started in 2005 and the first Arbor Day held that same year. The "Tree City, U.S.A." status was awarded in 2009 and each year since.
Note: Earth Day International, April 22, began in 1970 to honor the earth. Arbor Day International began in 1983 to encourage tree planting and is always the last Friday in April.


Invoice 'Reilly has been internet hosting the highest rated program by far on cable tv for seven years straight, its name; The 'Reilly Factor. The Congressional Finances Workplace earlier this week estimated that state spending on Medicaid will improve by $33 billion over the next decade under the Senate Finance Committee's health reform invoice, which expands Medicaid eligibility to individuals with incomes up to 133% of the federal poverty degree (Smitherman, Baltimore Sun, 10/9).
Our challenge encourages the development of a brand new core talent in journalism training, namely the behavior of doing what scholars call a literature evaluation." For a younger journalist, this implies not solely pulling the previous clips" on a topic, as reporters have traditionally performed, but in addition efficiently reviewing related analysis studies.
Perfluorinated compounds come from a variety of consumer products, and clearly the meals wrapping materials possible constitute an essential supply," said Phillippe Grandjean, an environmental health researcher and professor on the Harvard T.H. Chan Faculty of Public Health, in an electronic mail.
A Pennsylvania choose in the heart of the Keystone State's fracking belt has issued a forceful and precedent-setting determination holding that there isn't a company proper to privacy beneath that state's structure, giving citizens and journalists a strong device to understand the health and environmental impacts of natural fuel drilling in their communities.
You might be right about Cuba but in countries like the UK, Australia and NZ (and I would guess most European international locations), it is a national sport to complain in regards to the state health system (that is why you will note individuals above who have stated the programs will not be perfect).


The new U.S. embassy in Iraq is a fortress covering 104 acres, but building bunkers may not be the best model to follow.
THE SOURCE: "The Future of Diplomacy: Real Time or Real Estate?" by Jerrold D. Green, in RAND Review, Summer 2008.
Embassies such as the one to Belgium, a historic building on a busy underpass recently surrounded by a chainlink fence and a jumble of bollards and barricades, are "vulnerable, expensive, and cumbersome." They wall diplomats in secluded safety zones rather than immersing them in local culture.
America will always need representatives stationed overseas to handle sensitive or specialized tasks and to understand the cultural, linguistic, political, and social factors that make each country different, Green says. The antiquated embassy-based model may not achieve that goal. Embassies are impediments to understanding local culture and costly to staff. Twenty-first-century overseas representation needs to be sharper and smarter—but diplomats need to get their mail delivered to the countries where they are stationed only when there is sufficient value added. Could routine visa applications be moved offshore? Could experts fly in for meetings with local officials? Britain is already experimenting with "laptop diplomats," and other nations are asking foreign service staff to cover more than one country.
The new U.S. embassy in Iraq is roughly the size of Vatican City, with desk space for 1,000 workers behind blast-resistant walls. Baghdad, to be sure, is a special case. But the world is full of unique challenges to American diplomacy. To be effective, Green writes, embassies need to be integrators, not bunkers, as they are today.


Mammillaria species (Cactus family) in the Conservatory.
The Cactus and Succulent collection at the Horridge Conservatory contains a wide variety of beautiful plants. You may or may not know that a Cactus is a certain family of plants –the Cactaceae. All Cactus are succulents, but not all succulents are Cacti! A succulent is a broad category of plants which have thickened and fleshy leaves and stems, usually to retain water in arid climates and soils. Most succulents come from dry regions of the tropics and sub tropics such as steppes, semi-desert, and desert. High temperatures and low rainfall force plants to collect and store water to survive long dry periods. Many succulents (including Cacti) are grown as ornamentals or houseplants because of their unusual and interesting appearance. Familiar succulents include Jade plants (Crassula ), Aloe plants (Aloe ), or Mother-of-Millions (Kalanchoe).
Cacti are for the most part native to the Americas, ranging from Patagonia in the South to parts of western Canada in the north. Most cacti live in very dry habitats subject to at least some drought. Cacti show many adaptations to conserve water. Most species of cacti have lost true leaves, retaining only spines, which are highly modified leaves. As well as defending against herbivores, spines help prevent water loss by reducing evaporation. Cactus spines are produced from specialized structures called areoles, which are an identifying feature of cacti. Other types of succulents, such as Euphorbias, have spines but do not have areoles.
Golden Barrel Cactus, Echinocactus grusonii, with Paddle Plant, Kalanchoe thyrsiflora.
The lengthening days of late winter and early spring is when many of our cactus and succulents bloom, just as in the desert. I love to see them at this grey time of year. Some, such as the Gasteria and Aloe, come in a range of sunset colors (like the Echeveria from this post.) Some are bright pink or purple and others are pure white. If a trip to the Arizona or New Mexico isn't possible, come visit our little desert at the Horridge Conservatory.

The Horridge Conservatory is fortunate to have a specimen of a weird and wonderful plant: Welwitschia. (Thank you, Arielle!) Mirabilis is the only species in the genus and Welwitschia is the only genus in the family Welwitschiaceae. It is native to the Namib Desert on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean in Namibia and Angola.
What makes it so unusual? An adult Welwitschia consists of only two leaves, a stem base and roots. Its two permanent leaves are the original leaves from when the plant was a seedling– they continue to grow and are never shed. Those two leaves grow from a basal meristem in the plant's terminal groove. They eventually grow to a length of 2 – 4 meters and become split, frayed and shredded into several well-separated strap-shaped sections which lie on the ground. This gives the appearance in older plants of having many leaves, but there really are only two.
The stem is low, woody, and obconical in shape. It grows to about 500 mm in height. There are separate male and female plants. Welwitschia produces cones but is not wind pollinated as most cone-bearing plants are. It is pollinated by flies, true bugs, and most commonly, the Welwitschia bug, Odontopus sexpunctatus.
Welwitschia is ecologically highly specialized, and is adapted to grow under arid conditions receiving regular fog. This regular, dense fog is formed when the cold north-flowing Benguela Current meets the hot air coming off the Namib Desert. The fog develops during the night and usually subsides by about 10 a.m The broad, downward drooping leaves collect condensation, which drips down onto the plant's own root zone. It also has numerous stomata on both leaf surfaces and fog-water is taken up directly through these stomata. The fog has been estimated to contribute 50 mm in annual rainfall! A long taproot reaches deep for underground water in this part of the world which often receives less than100 mm of rain a year.
Welwitschia mirabilis in the Namib Desert.
It is interesting that it is possible, and not even terribly difficult, to grow Welwitschia as a house plant. A few Botanical Gardens (but not URI) offer seed for sale on line. The greatest danger to the germinating seeds is fungal infection. A very sandy soil mix helps reduce this risk. There is a great article on germinating and growing Welwitschia at home on the Planzafrica website, as well as information about the discovery of the plant by Friedrich Welwitsch.
Welwitschia mirabilis is thought to live 1,000 years or more!

Follow the Barcud Trail around the lake to find the bird hide that overlooks the feeding ara. This is the best spot to watch the feeding and try and get some photos of the swooping red kites.
Take a scenic tram on the Great Orme
The Great Orme is an extremely photogenic limestone headland above the town of Llandudno in North Wales. It is a great spot for hiking, photography and picnics.
Surely the best way to discover the Great Orme is to ride all the way up to the top on Britain's only cable-hauled street Tramway.
The Tramway climbs 1500m high the the Great Orme Country Park and beautiful Nature Reserve. It's a lovely way to slowly appreciate the scenic surruondings.

Only in Wales would you have a former mine turned into an underground trampoline and subterranean playground.
In the historic mining town of Blaenau Ffestiniog, they have transformed a huge network of Victorian mining caverns into 'Bounce Below'.
Here you can jump on massive bouncy nets across two levels in a neon-lit, 180ft deep, cathedral-sized cavern.
The muted neon lights only add to the surreal atmosphere of trampolining in a gigantic caver. It really is a unique experience in Wales and definitely one not to be missed.
Learn to surf in the Gower
One of the best beaches for surfing in Wales is the Gower area. One of my favourite surfing spots in the Gower is the sandy beaches of Llangennith.
It's a picturesque surfing spot in wales, with consistent waves that rival Newquay in Cornwall.
If you are new to wave riding why not book a surf-lesson with Big Blue Adventures? These guys are the outdoor specialist in Wales and offer a range of surf lesson options.
The surf lessons take place at either Rhossili Bay or Llangennith Beach and are around 2 hours long, including all equipment, experienced instructor and training on the beach.

Q: Events Failing To Trigger In QUnit Tests I'm new to QUnit. I'm using jQuery (tested with 1.4.2 and 1.5.1) and the latest QUnit. I can trigger events just fine in a single test, but any test afterwards fails. Here's a simplified repro:
// code under test - "#Test1" is just an empty div
$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#Test1').mouseenter(function(e) { console.log('ENTER');});
  $('#Test1').mouseleave(function(e) { console.log('LEAVE');});
});

// tests
test('enter', function() {
    $('#Test1').mouseenter();
});

test('leave', function() {
    $('#Test1').mouseleave();
});

When I run the tests, the console outputs only ENTER. However, if I use a single test...
test('enterleave', function() {
    $('#Test1').mouseenter();
    $('#Test1').mouseleave();
});

...the console outputs ENTER and LEAVE. I've tried using QUnit's triggerEvent, jQuery.trigger, etc. to no avail. This issue repros on multiple browsers. Am I testing events correctly?
Full repro here: http://jsbin.com/obehu5/edit.

A: QUnit appears to be clearing the event binding for the element once a trigger occurs. I fixed this issue by moving my "init" code into the QUnit setup. I'm not sure if this is a good practice or not but it seems to have resolved the issue. I also fixed the sample from above: http://jsbin.com/obehu5/5/.

A: change your id to a class.
only i unique id is allowed per page so jquery stops looking after the first id and the function never gets fired on the second occurance.
$(document).ready(function(){

    //change the id to a class
    $(".test1").mouseenter(function(){
        console.log("enter");
    });

    $(".test1").mouseleave(function(){
        console.log("leave");
    });

});

A: Try creating an event object first
Example,
var e = jQuery.Event("keydown", true);
e.which = 40;  // down key
e.stopImmediatePropagation();

Then in your test
$('#testEmpty').trigger( e ); // down

Without stopImmediatePropagation my test was also failing due to multiple calls. This may help a bit.

The Joker to Unleash Complete Chaos in 2017
by CoasterDave316 on September 1st, 2016, 7:02 am
The following is a press release from Six Flags Great America:
Six Flags Great America's 15th and First Ever Free-Fly Roller Coaster
GURNEE, Ill. - September 1, 2016 - Six Flags Great America, the Thrill Capital of the Midwest, and Warner Bros Consumer Products, on behalf of DC Entertainment, announce plans for its 15th and most maniacal roller coaster to date, the all-new free-fly coaster, The Joker. This insanely twisted chaos coaster will be a massive new centerpiece in the Yankee Harbor section of the park, next to Batman The Ride roller coaster.
"We are excited to continue our partnership with the DC brand as it continues to resonate well with our guests. The Joker is undeniably one of the greatest Super-Villains of all time," said Hank Salemi, Six Flags Great America park president. "This free-fly coaster will perfectly capture the essence of the warped and unpredictable nature of The Joker. It will take our park to the next level of thrills."
After being lifted straight up a 12-story, 90-degree hill, the free-fly coaster will wreak havoc as riders flip head-over-heels at least six times along the weightless journey. Thrill seekers will experience exhilarating leaps and dives along a horizontal plane with unexpected drops as they tumble from one level to the next. The wing seats amp up the pandemonium since riders will experience this wild adventure with no track above or below ─ just the sky, ground and plenty of sinister thrills.
The unique design of The Joker features:
- Massive, imposing, floating and twisting I-box track frame in a unique two-tone design;
- One-of-a-kind onboard magnetic technology featuring smooth head-over-heels free-fly flips providing guests the feeling of weightlessness as they soar outside the confines of a traditional track;
- 4-D wing vehicles that seat up to 8 per vehicle with a total of 5 vehicles;
- Face-off seats that allow riders to face each other as they tumble head over heels; A 120-foot-tall, 90-degree hill that is ascended by an elevator-style, chain link lift; and
- Two beyond 90-degree "raven" drops giving the sensation of free-falling.
The Joker is expected to unleash total mayhem beginning in the spring of 2017, and join the ranks of all a long line of legendary roller coasters at Six Flags Great America.
Six Flags Great America is also announcing the start of 2017 Season Pass sales with its special Flash Sale through Labor Day weekend featuring the best deal of the year – savings up to 70% off on 2017 Passes! September 1 through September 5, guests will receive a free upgrade to a Gold Season Pass with every Pass purchased.

Passholders may also purchase a Premium Season Dining Pass, which includes a lunch, dinner, and snack during every park visit, plus they will receive a 2017 All Season Sport Bottle for unlimited drink refills. Premium Season Dining Passes may be used at any Six Flags theme park.
