If I am sitting under a standing hood dryer, should i use a heat protectant on my hair first?
I would say it depends on why you are sitting under there:) I have one also and i sit under with a plastic cap to do deep conditioning treatments and protein treatments. In these instances i do not use heat protectant.
But if i am sitting under to simply dry my hair then i do use a heat protectant.
I tend to be overly cautious, but since I tend to use an oil and shea moisture curly enhancing smoothie I would use very little heat protection to keep my hair from being greasy/oily.
For styles to dry I usually sit under the dryer for 15-30mins with it set on high.
But If you plan to be under their longer I would use the heat protection. Then again that's just cautious me.
IMO you should be fine with out it. If you are afraid of loosening your curl, the hooded dryer will not do that. If you are afraid of dryness, deep condition beforehand. Although If you want to be super safe, just make sure that your leave in conditioner has cones in for heat protection.

Shaping the Policy and Business Agenda for a New Europe
June 2-4, 2016 in Wroclaw, Poland
Visit the Wroclaw Global Forum Website
The Wrocław Global Forum is the leading transatlantic conference in Poland, bringing together outstanding policy and business entrepreneurs for discussions focused on the core transatlantic values of democracy, prosperity, and security. The Forum highlights Central Europe's successful economic and political transition, its strong ties with Germany and other leading European countries, and its growing influence within the transatlantic partnership and on the global stage. Convening more than 400 leaders from government, the corporate world, media, and civil society, the Forum is a key distributor of ideas and influence both regionally and around the world.
The Wrocław Global Forum is organized by the Atlantic Council, the Polish Institute of International Affairs, and the city of Wrocław. More than twenty-two ministers and heads of state have presented their views at WGF, along with numerous CEOs. Past speakers at the Forum have included: Polish President Bronisław Komorowski; US Senators John McCain and Christopher Murphy; Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense of Poland Tomasz Siemoniak; former Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski; US Deputy Secretary of State Thomas R. Nides; SACEUR Admiral James Stavridis; former Polish President Lech Wałęsa; former US National Security Advisors Stephen J. Hadley and General James Jones; EU Commissioner for Trade Karel de Gucht; Airbus Group CEO Thomas Enders; and others. The extensive press coverage and social media impact of the Forum ensure a strong regional and global audience for the issues discussed in Wrocław.
Apart from distinguished keynote addresses, the Forum provides a platform for business executives and policymakers to share their perspectives on key issues at specialized side events, café conversations, and leadership sessions. Business is one of the strong pillars of the transatlantic partnership and is central to the Forum. In 2015, for the first time, we held Business Leadership Dialogues on topics such as energy, IT and innovation, and defense.
The Wrocław Global Forum agenda always reflects the most pressing issues facing Central Europe and the US-European partnership. In the wake of the Eurozone crisis, with conflict in Ukraine and the Middle East, political polarization on both sides of the Atlantic, and increasing focus on the dynamic economies of Asia, the 2015 Forum addressed:
The Russian Challenge and the Future of the Eastern Partnership
The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership: Progress and Challenges
Energy Union? Coping with Global Markets, Energy Security, and Sustainability
Defense Requirements and Industry in the Post-Crimea Security Environment
Innovation and Technology in a Competitive Global Economy
Addressing Critical Vulnerabilities: Moving Toward the 2016 NATO Summit in Warsaw

Harvest Lane Honey Standard Bee Brush at Tractor Supply Co.
The Harvest Lane Honey Standard Bee Brush will help you gently sweep bees away from your hive.
4 in. x 20 in.
Harvest Lane Honey Standard Bee Brush is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 6.
Rated 4 out of 5 by New Bee2 from New Bursh sturdy piece of equipment, we will see how it works on the bees soon.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Chesapeake Beach from You get what you pay for..... Average brush, nothing spectacular. It will work.


Exfoliate your feet as you dig your toes into the white washed sand of Bloubergstrand (Blue Mountain Beach). Look out across the sweeping blue Atlantic Ocean as cobalt currents carry your gaze toward Robben Island. Cast your line of sight across Table Bay to Table Mountain raising your hand to trace the iconic shape that symbolises all that is Cape Town.
This linear beach stretch has monumental views of the Mother City's rock face and as a result is not shielded by this mountain range from the wind which blows in kite-surfers and wind-surfers with gusts. Kids delight as their coloured kite sails take to flight on the end of strings.
Rock pools filled with ocean rock creature's surface from frosty waves at the corners of the beach. For the less adventurous walk hand in hand with the horizon silhouetted by acrobatic displays of adrenalin surfers. Wind-free days may disappoint water sport enthusiasts but they create golden rows of tanners and a soft sandy arena for beach-bats and ballgames. Bring all your refreshments and beach accessories to make play while the sun shines.
WhereOtto Du Plessis Drive (M14) between Big Bay and Table View Beach, Bloubergstrand, Blaauwberg, Cape Town.

Large kitchen with wall pantry cabinets, dishwasher, trash compactor and newer electric range. Bring your updating ideas and make this home yours! Near local wineries and about an hour to Lake Tahoe!


This is the usual 'Gore-onic' argument. The moon is made of green cheese, and despite the flagrantly fraudulent activities of those who claim this, skeptics are yet expected to prove it isn't – which is impossible now that the data is all phony! Then the usual dumbed down arguments about 'less pollution is good no matter what' are trotted out.
We should act like the moon is made of green cheese, just in case it is, and just in case the fact that it is made of green cheese actually will endanger us somehow. Won't we be sorry when we look up to watch in terrified regret as the cow jumps over the moon, trips over chicken little, the sky comes down upon our heads, and all is lost.
This is the LAST time I allow this kind of drivel to be posted on my blog, and the last time I will respond to it.
Of COURSE we need to clean our air – and we HAVE been. Cities were far worse at the turn of the 19th century when people were burning coal in their houses for heat!! So where is that smog and coal dust now? Gone, and the planet is still alive, and so are we.
We need responsible approaches, and throwing away one energy source to force a change to a more expensive alternative is NOT the answer! There is, in fact, as much evidence that the Earth as an organism is producing oil all the time, and that we have centuries of supplies that are being choked off much like the diamond trade, as there is for so called 'Anthropomorphic Global Warming' (those greenies with their megaphones just LOVE words like that – it makes them feel so IMPORTANT!!).
Furthermore, all these claims about so called 'green' energy are religion, not fact! Solar panel manufacture is an incredibly toxic process, and disposal is a problem; wind farms need a coal plant anyway for when the stupid wind isn't blowing; ethanol and 'bio-fuel' have been a disaster that requires 3/4 litre of regular diesel to produce 1 litre of biofuel, when all is said and done, and have driven up world food prices and starved people to death the world over in the millions.
YES, there are issues with fossil fuels – but our technology in this field is far, far advanced, and getting better all the time. Meanwhile people get ants in their pants over the fact that Hydrogen burns into a waste product of water vapour, and don't see the wider picture that these actual technologies represent at their current stages of development. If you don't factor in manufacture and disposal, then you have not done your homework.
This is driven, quite simply, by perverse, self-hating humans. But if you hate your culture, then why live it? Change it – but don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Fossil fuels have given us everything we hold dear today in our lifestyles, and banning them in favour of – uh, what, exactly? – will only condemn us to more issues swept under the rug from new energy sources that in the end will be propped up by fossil fuels, and ultimately funded at a loss by crippling taxes that have become so outrageous they actually threaten to destroy our very economies!
This is INSANE – personally, I would like to live in a world where at least SOMEONE is well-off, but 'fairness' seems to dictate that we all rewind the clock 500 years until we're once again trading half our carrot crop to a feudal lord for permission to keep farming. The idea that if one person lives in a mud hut, so should everyone is NOT a model for ever bringing the rest of the world to the level of wealth western economies have realized through hard work and endless individual initiative and cooperation. In fact, it will keep those people in poverty – look to Eritrea, who have refused the IMF/UN model, and whose economy is now BOOMING.
As for the supposedly nasty evil 'Big Oil' shills – what could be more in their interest than an artificial scare that doubles if not triples the price of oil? We hear from greenies all the time about how greedy Big Oil is – yet on closer inspection, we find the CRU taking money from Shell and even Exxon, and IPCC Chairman Dr. Pauchuri hiding extensive ties to India's massive Oil and Energy conglomerate TATA.
Simply put, the people pushing this agenda are CROOKS – and you're an IDIOT. If the evidence is FRAUDULENT, then for God's sakes stop defending it like a total FOOL, and let's get on with making this planet a truly better place to live.
As for the 'just in case' argument – just in case of WHAT? Clearly the answer is now 'just in case of NOTHING'. Even if some of the climate related issues could be directly attributed to our activities, these can be dealt with much more economically as they arise – using fossil fuel powered machines and technologies, no less! You don't pay $6000 a year to insure a $4000 car. It makes no sense.
As for enduring 'drastic, unprecedented climate change', we seem to do fine from season to season, and it is both absurd and comical that nobody seems to notice this. Every year we manage changes in temperature that range over 50 degrees centigrade, and which regularly throw our lives into total chaos. God forbid we started trying to even these seasonal patterns out somehow – we'd make a real mess of it, I guarantee you.
Wind power is highly suspect – wave and tidal power are much more promising. But if fossil fuels are plentiful, cheap, technologically advanced, cleaner all the time, and provide the world's flora with all the CO2 it wants, then I have to say – maybe this is God's will that we discover them and melt a few igloos, no?
Sure beats finding you frozen in the snow, and then realizing it's all there is left to eat.

En agriculture, l'indice de récolte (IR) (ou harvest index (HI) en anglais), est le rapport entre le rendement commercialisable d'une plante cultivée et la quantité totale de biomasse qui a été produite, exprimés en matière sèche. Cet indice, sans dimension, a une valeur comprise entre 0 et 1, il peut être aussi exprimé en pourcentage. Le rendement commercial peut être constitué par des grains (céréales), des graines (olégineux, légumineuses), des tubercules ou des fruits. L'indice de récolte peut se calculer aussi bien par rapport à la biomasse végétale totale (parties aériennes -feuilles et tiges- et souterraines -racines- de la plante), mais on utilise plus souvent la biomasse aérienne à cause de la difficulté à évaluer la biomasse souterraine.

Cette notion est surtout appliquée aux céréales. Une autre définition est la suivante : rapport, exprimé en pourcentage, entre le poids en matière sèche des grains et le poids, également en matière sèche, du total des organes aériens (au moment de la récolte).

Un autre indicateur voisin est le « ratio paille-grain » (RGP), utilisé pour les céréales, qui est le rapport des quantités de paille et de grains récoltées, exprimée en poids frais (avec les taux d'humidité à la récolte, en général de 12 à 15 % pour les grains. En outre, à la différence de l'indice de récolte, la quantité de paille ne tient pas compte des résidus abandonnés au sol, notamment des chaumes.
Chez le riz, la valeur du ratio paille-grain varie de 0,3 à 2,1 selon les variétés étudiées, tandis que l'indice de récolte varie de 0,4 à 1.
Des études statistiques ont montré que la variabilité de l'indice de récolte est moindre que celle du ratio paille-grain.

On a également défini un « indice de récolte Azote », comme étant la part de l'azote présent dans les grains à maturité par rapport à l'azote total présent dans les parties aériennes à maturité.

Exemples
La valeur de l'indice de récolte varie considérablement selon les espèces et variétés de plantes cultivées. Ainsi chez le blé, les variétés semi-naines ont un indice de 0,47, contre 0,40 chez les cultivars standard, tandis que chez le riz, pour 21 cultivars à haut rendement, l'indice varie de 0,23 à 0,50.
Chez le manioc, la valeur de l'indice a été évaluée à 0,80 pour le cultivar MCol22 à neuf mois de culture.

L'expression « indice de récolte » (en anglais harvest index) a été forgée en 1962 par l'agronome australien Colin Malcom Donald (1910-1985), qui l'a définie comme le rendement économique (grain) d'une culture de blé, exprimé sous la forme d'une fraction décimale du rendement biologique total, qu'il sous-entendait clairement comme étant la production totale de matière sèche des parties aériennes.

Avant lui, le Russe A.A. Nichiporovitch, en 1954, avait introduit les termes de « rendement biologique » et de « rendement économique », le premier désignant la matière sèche totale et le second la part économiquement utile du rendement biologique, tandis que dès 1914, l'Anglais Beaven, sélectionneur de variétés d'orge, avait proposé pour mesurer l'efficacité de la production de grains un indice qu'il appela « coefficient de migration », vulgarisé depuis sous le nom d'« indice de récolte ».

His box office successes have made "Weathering With You" director Makoto Shinkai a household name in Japan, but he remains a reluctant celebrity. | KYODO
Commentary / Japan
Weathering the storms of judgment
by Shihoko Goto
Online: Sep 03, 2019
Last Modified: Sep 03, 2019
WASHINGTON – Being selected to represent Japan in any industry is no small feat. But representing Japan in the foreign film category at the Oscars is particularly harrowing. The selection process to make the final five for the ultimate prize is arduous and definitely opaque. Who really knows what goes on in the Academy of Motion Pictures anyway? But the foreign film category is particularly contentious, given the patriotic fervor that prevails throughout the elimination process.
Japan's ardent cinephiles and casual film viewers alike will be closely watching to see whether "Weathering With You" makes it through to win the top spot. The film by director Makoto Shinkai already has a few domestic firsts under its belt, including first Japanese animation since 1998 to represent the country in the foreign language film category, and raking in more ticket sales in its first three days at the box office than the director's previous blockbuster. Still, the film's biggest contribution may well be how it portrays a new form of Japanese identity and even leadership both on and off the screen.
Gone are the days when Japanese business practices and blue-chip companies inspired a generation of foreign students to study Japanese language and corporate culture. Back in the 1980s and early '90s, it seemed to make financial sense as much as anything else to study Japan. Over the past two decades, though, it has been Japan's soft power, most notably in anime, that has played a significant role in inspiring young people worldwide to learn about the country.
In short, money is no longer a driving force in the study of Japan. Rather, it is often the scenes depicted on screens, the clatter on the internet, music being streamed, sports celebrities and a love of Japanese food more than politics or economics that have turned people on to Japan.
But "Weathering With You" succeeds in presenting yet another dimension of Japan: its vulnerability to weather and in this case, heavy rain. Although teenage romance drives this coming-of-age film, persistent, torrential rain pummeling Tokyo is an integral part of the plot as well. While the sinister weather is a result of divine anger in the film, it's easy enough for moviegoers to think about the impact of climate change and a sobering reflection on the vulnerabilities of a megapolis.
In a nutshell, the weather is as much a character as any, and the film can be a starting point to consider the implications of drastic shifts in weather patterns in any part of the world without being preachy.
It is the director of the film himself, though, who actually succeeds in promoting Japan's evolving values the best. With his latest work following in the footsteps of his previous blockbuster "Your Name.," Shinkai has emerged as a household name in the country, featuring prominently in multiple TV shows and interviews.
What is striking is that he remains a reluctant celebrity. Asked whether he could do a quick drawing and sign his name on his work on one program, Shinkai said that he didn't like to do that because an animation production is the result of a large team of people working together, noting that over 800 people worked on his latest film.
For Shinkai, his creative process is a collaborative one that values and celebrates teamwork at a time when most global corporate executives promote their own personal brands and seek the limelight. The director's approach to promoting his work reflects a more traditional approach to celebrating the Made in Japan brand, even when the animation industry is very much in the 21st century.
Still, the fact that a sizable number of Chinese and Korean animators have been an integral part of the production team may be what needs to be highlighted the most right now. There has already been plenty of speculation about how the Japanese animation film may do in the South Korean market in particular, given the tensions between Tokyo and Seoul, with no clear end in sight for a breakthrough in relations. Certainly, the movement within certain groups in South Korea to boycott Japanese products will hurt viewership in the country, if theaters don't shy away from showing it in the first place.
As the competition for the 92nd annual Oscar foreign film shortlist heats up, the rivalry between Japan and South Korea will no doubt intensify in the world of cinema as well. With South Korea's own nomination, "Parasite" by Bong Joon-ho, seen as a strong contender, the Oscars could be yet another battleground for heightened tensions.
Yet Shinkai's message about environmental concerns including heavy rains not being anything new but actually transcending the millennia is a universal one. The fact that the message has been delivered all too forcefully as a result of cooperation among top talents going beyond national boundaries should also resonate with an audience hungry for strong narratives and detailed graphics.
All eyes will be on the Academy Awards next February.

During the past year a group of hikers completed the End-to-End of the Ganaraska trail, and they sent along a report of their journey as well as a spreadsheet showing their actual log. This is an example of one way of presenting the log which some members may find interesting and useful. Of note, the first page on the spreadsheet – labelled GT – is the actual GHTA log, while obviously they have used the same spreadsheet format, indeed the same spreadsheet just separate pages, to record their other journeys. We congratulate them, and thank them for sharing their log format.
In order to view the attached files, click on them to download them to your download folder/desktop, then open the file from that.
At the recent AGM, the winners of the GHTA Inc. Volunteer of the Year Award were announced – and this year this award is shared by two Orillia Club members – Isobel Thorup and Carol Strickland. Pictured here are the two holding the plaque after it was presented at a recent Orillia hike.
The following article appeared in OrilliaMatters.com shortly after the 50th Anniversary event.
"The Ganaraska Hiking Club celebrates 50 years in 2018, and the celebrations culminated in the Sept. 28-30 weekend event held in Orillia. The Club began as the brainchild of Pat Lawson and Jack Goering, members of a nature appreciation club in the Port Hope area, in the mid-1960's. With help from Bruce Trail organizational veterans, Pat, Jack and many others created a partial trail in the Port Hope area, but this quickly grew to form a 500 km trail that spans Lake Ontario to Georgian Bay and the Collingwood area where it joins the Bruce Trail. Today there are 9 member Clubs, each with their own section to steward and enjoy. The trail proceeds across lands held by private landowners, county forests and municipalities whose generosity has allowed the formation of a continuous trail, with only a few gaps.
Orillia, sitting in the middle of the trail, was a natural choice for location of the 50th anniversary celebrations, and Lakehead University, Orillia campus, provided an ideal venue.
The event kicked off with a welcome pub night at Kelsey's, with local and out-of-town members of the club and Hike Ontario Board members mingling and renewing old acquaintances.
Marion Brophy (past Orillia Club President), Irene Bell (Wasaga Beach President) and Fern Splichal (Board Member) enjoy a cup of cheer while greeting visitors from all over the province.
The following morning, the program got underway at Lakehead Orillia's beautiful campus. While Hike Ontario held their Annual General Meeting and Summit, members of the Ganaraska Club from all over Ontario registered for the day's events.
Frieda Baldwin, the current Ganaraska President, welcomed the crowd.
Followinga presentation on the history of the Ganaraska Hiking Trail, several of the Past Presidents of the club were given a special anniversary cap and thanked for their outstanding service to the Club. Pictured from left to right are: Paul McCreath, David Francis, Mike Pidwerbecki, and Bob Bowles.
Kevin Callan provided the keynote address – "Wilderness Surthrival" – in which he entertained the group with his description of his work leading 7 day wilderness trips for college students.
After this, the water ceremony began. The background for this is that during this hiking year, bottles of water from Lake Ontario and from Georgian Bay (being either end of the Ganaraska Hiking Trail) had been relayed by each of the member clubs in turn, until the waters arrived in Orillia to be delivered to the Orillia Club.
Pictured holding the specially designed water tote bags are: Barb Lewis, Paul McCreath, and Fern Splichal. Joining them on the journey out of Scout Valley are Wendy Kirk, Isabelle Lloyd, Isobel Thorup, and Carol Strickland (taking the picture).
They were joined by the 80+ attendees as they proceeded up University Avenue and across Lakehead's campus to the Indigenous Gardens. There the waters were used in a moving traditional ceremony honouring water and asking for a blessing.
Trish Monague (Cedar Woman) leads the water ceremony in the Wiigwasitig Gitigaan (Birch Tree Garden) area at Lakehead University.
The waters were then poured out onto the gardens area.
Following this, a barbecue lunch was held in the Lakehead cafeteria, where an anniversary cake created by a Midland Club member was enjoyed by all.
The afternoon provided members with choices of workshops to attend, from "Stretching for hiking" to "Risk Management for Trail Associations, to "Fascinating Fungi".
On Sunday, Hike Ontario offered a full day course – Certified Hike Leader – using Lakehead's classrooms and adjacent fields.
Everyone in attendance agreed that the weekend was much enjoyed and very worthwhile. The Ganaraska Hiking Club and Hike Ontario were delighted to hold their event at Lakehead University, whose campus was an ideal setting for this Summit and whose philosophy of partnering with the community and fostering lifelong learning matched perfectly with the theme of the whole celebration. Many thanks to Kristen Lampman of Lakehead's Conference Service, and to Dr. Linda Rodenburg, Co-ordinator of Lakehead's Community Engagement and Lifelong Learning and to Allysha Wassegijig, Lakehead's Aboriginal Initiatives Co-ordinator for their very generous and helpful support.


The study investigated the ways L2 learners of English reflect on their use of English while completing a writing task and the strategies learners apply in order to resolve their language-related problems. Factors which might have some influence on the learners' noticing and problem-solving behaviour were explored using a qualitative, inductive research approach involving the detailed analyses of ten participants. Think-aloud protocols and stimulated recall interviews were used to investigate learners' noticing while composing and their use of strategies. Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted in order to analyze the learners' language learning background and preferences. The analysis was purposely inductive, deriving units of analysis and categories from the data rather than basing it on existing theories. At a later stage, the data-grounded analysis was compared to existing research, terminology and theories, and adapted where necessary. The results of the study revealed three basic tendencies (called types for a better clarity in describing the results) in noticing and strategy use behaviour. Learners of the first type frequently reflected on their language use and effectively applied a wide range of strategies to resolve their problems. The second type also used strategies effectively but applied a low range of strategy types. These learners did not often encounter linguistic problems and their linguistic problems occurred only in a few basic areas such as lexis. The third type were learners who, while encountering different numbers and ranges of language-related episodes, preferred to act intuitively rather than using problem-solving strategies in order to resolve their language-related problems. The different noticing and strategy use profiles were linked to the characteristics of the learners. Learners of the first type all had differentiated views on the importance of communication or accuracy in writing and speaking. Besides this, they exhibited two different sets of characteristics. The first subgroup was confident learners who were motivated to learn English and willing to invest some effort into learning English and other languages. The second subgroup considered learning English as an obligation and their English learning was strongly influenced by school. They were anxious learners with low communicative confidence who seemed to feel forced to reflect on their language use in order to avoid negative consequences. Learners of the second type also saw learning English as an obligation and were influenced by school in their English learning, but as confident learners, they found ways to handle the L2 effectively and to invest only as much effort as necessary. Learners of the third type exhibited a strong private influence on their English learning, combined with the motivation to learn English and other languages. Two of them had a clear preference for oral communication, linked to a less effective use of strategies in writing, whereas one learner used written and spoken English equally and at the same time demonstrated knowledge and effective use of strategies specific to writing. This study complements other studies which were concerned with noticing or strategy use in L2 output, adding new insights concerning the types of language-related problems, the different problem-solving strategies, and the links between these and the learner profiles. Based on the results, possible implications for English language teaching are drawn, stressing the balance of communication and accuracy in English language teaching, and illustrating how the different tendencies found in this study could be considered in foreign language instruction.

This Trump & Kim Jong Un Update Means They Might Meet Up Like Nothing Ever Happened
Chung Sung-Jun/Getty Images News/Getty Images
By Angela Chen
It's the will-they-won't-they geopolitical relationship drama that's keeping the international realm on its toes. President Donald Trump and North Korea's leader have scheduled, cancelled, and now possibly re-scheduled the historic summit meeting between the two nations. On Sunday, via his Twitter account, the president announced that his team had traveled to North Korea to "make arrangements" for the meeting, a sign that the meeting between Trump and Kim Jong Un seems to be back on track, according to the Chicago Tribune.
The latest presidential tweet on the potential meeting between these two idiosyncratic leaders was positive in tone, with Trump writing that he believes "North Korea has brilliant potential" and a future as a "great economic and financial Nation [sic] one day." He ends on a confident note, declaring, "It will happen!"
Back on March 5, President Trump carved a notch into his diplomacy belt after he announced a mutual agreement to a summit between the United States and North Korea, an unprecedented move by a sitting United States president. The summit was originally scheduled for June 12 in Singapore. Then, in mid-May, tensions over denuclearization and military exercises erupted in harsh remarks made by North Korea. By May 24, Trump had called the summit off in a letter to Kim, saying the "tremendous anger and open hostility" in Kim's remarks now rendered the summit "inappropriate." The two had conciliatory statements back and forth over the next couple of days.
The president's Sunday tweet, according to the Chicago Tribune, refers to a team that the State Department has sent to Panmunjom, a "truce village" area that sits on the border inside the demilitarized zone (DMZ). The DMZ acts as the demarcation between North and South Korea. The team, made up of technical experts and diplomats, are making this visit to meet with their counterparts, according to the New York Times. At the head is veteran diplomat Sun Kim, whose goal is to gain a commitment from Kim about his country's complete denuclearization.
Of course, the possibility of this summit popping back on to the presidential calendar was always there; President Trump's reportedly overeager response to the summit invitation and his Nobel Peace Prize comment show how much he wants this as a part of his legacy, according to the New York Times. His letter to Kim, while forward in boasting about the United States' nuclear capabilities, still left some room to make nice again: President Trump called their communication "wonderful dialogue" and said that he looked "very much forward to meeting" Kim. He also called Kim's release of the American hostages a "beautiful gesture." The letter ends with an open offer, handing off the next move to North Korea:
If you change your mind having to do with this most important summit, please do not hesitate to call me or write. The world, and North Korea in particular, has lost a great opportunity for lasting peace and great prosperity and wealth. This missed opportunity is a truly sad moment in history.
The response to the letter from North Korea was receptive. "We express our willingness to sit down face-to-face with the US and resolve issues anytime and in any format," North Korean vice foreign minister Kim Kye Gwan said in a statement, according to the Guardian. "Our commitment to doing our best for the sake of peace and stability for the world and the Korean Peninsula remains unchanged, and we are open-minded in giving time and opportunity to the U.S." This led to an appeased tweet from Trump on Friday night.
Now, it seems the summit has progressed beyond talks. United States officials have taken their furthest step yet, with an actual presence on North Korea's border to discuss denuclearization specifics. It seems the historic meeting may be back on course — but then again, with both leaders' temperaments, the world will have to hold its breath until the summit day arrives.

Q: An Example of Exponential Decay I was given the task of writing a formula for the following scenario:
A tank with a capacity of 3,000 cubic meters is filled with a substance. We want that substance, we'll call it substance1, to be diluted by substance2 until substance1 equals 1% of its original volume. Substance2 will be introduced to the tank by filling up a balloon, and then popping it, allowing the substances to mix. Before the balloon and substance2 are introduced to the tank, we need to empty an equal amount from what's already in the tank.
The dilution will occur in steps:

*

*A balloon will be filled with X-Cubic-Meters of substance2.

*X-Cubic-Meters will be released from the tank.

*The balloon will be put into the tank and popped, allowing the substances to mix thoroughly.
Steps 1 - 3 will repeat until substance1 reaches 1% of its original amount. I believe the problem relates to exponential decay due to how substance1 is both released from the tank, and diluted in each iteration of the process.

From Edition Silvertrust
Reger's Piano Quartet No.2 in a minorwas composed some four years after his first in 1914. The opening movement, Allegro con passione, is melancholy and muted, creating a mournful effect with outbursts of emotion. The second movement, Vivace, is lighter and brighter scherzo with a mysterious sounding trio section. Next comes a Largo con gran espressione. The mood is somber and the music has a religious feel to it. The finale, Allegro con spirito, combines moments of sunshine with darker more brooding episodes.
Max Reger (1873-1916) was born in the small Bavarian town of Brand. He began his musical studies at a young age and his talent for composition became clear early on. His family expected him to become a school teacher like his father and to this end passed the necessary examinations for certification. However, before he landed his first teaching job, he met the eminent musicologist Hugo Riemann, who was so impressed by Reger's talent that he urged him to devote himself entirely to music. Reger studied with him for nearly five years. By 1907 Reger was appointed to the prestigious position of Professor of composition at the Leipzig Conservatory. In addition to this he was widely regarded as one of the best living conductors and organists. In a career that only lasted 20 years, Reger wrote a prodigious amount of music in virtually every genre except opera and the symphony. Chamber music figures prominently within his oeuvre.
This work belongs in the concert hall but can be managed by experienced amateur players as well.

Clark execs: 'Twas not easy taking in NAIA's diverted flights
By: Tonette Orejas - @ttorejasINQ
Inquirer Central Luzon / 07:40 PM July 19, 2016
CLARK FREEPORT — The Clark International Airport (CRK) took the brunt of the anger, frustration and disappointment expressed by thousands of stranded passengers, after flights from the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) were diverted here on Monday, said lawyer Emigdio Tanjuatco III, Clark International Airport Corp. (CIAC) president and chief executive officer.
CRK had been designated as NAIA's alternative gateway, making it a refuge for aircraft during typhoons and other calamities.
On Monday, a crack on the runway of NAIA caused 28 international and local flights to land at CRK beginning at 9:20 a.m.Airphil, Philippine Airlines, AirAsia Zest, Cebu Pacific, Air Juan, Asian Aerospace, Emirates, Saudia Airlines, Etihad, Qatar Airways, Turkish Airline and Oman Air landed their aircraft at CRK.
Landings at NAIA resumed at 10:45 p.m. when the repair was completed.
But 14 aircraft were still parked at CRK on Monday night.
Stranded passengers on one of the planes were described by airport sources as "irate" because they stayed seated for six hours without being served food.
Tanjuatco did not identify the airline but said the CIAC provided a holding room and food to "alleviate the suffering of passengers," when the airline finally decided to let them disembark.
Tanjuatco was in Manila where he was finalizing details of his wedding, but he was forced to return to CRK to oversee assistance to planes diverted there.
As of 4 p.m. on Tuesday, three planes from Oman Air, Emirates and Etihad remained parked at CRK, according to Leandro Aranas, manager of the CIAC terminal operations division.
Aranas said regular flights at CRK were not affected by the emergency.
At least 10 foreign and local airlines serve routes via CRK, a United States Air Force's facility rehabilitated by the government in 1992 following the closure of American bases in 1991 when the Philippine Senate terminated the military bases agreement. SFM

Another event that is quite popular is the Kauai Marathon on September 4. We get visitors from all over the world who compete in the event. The course is set along some of the most beautiful scenery in the world.
Another cool thing that happens during the summer is the Movies in the Park. Kauai's Rotary Club sponsors movies on Friday evenings at sundown at Poipu Beach Park. Bring your beach blanket or chairs, listen to the surf while you watch the big screen under the stars – great family fun!

I tried to use this code but wouldn't work, How are you calling the XSL, You have 2 sections were do you put those exactly?
So, in your web part page, you've got a dataviewwebpart, right? And, in that dataview webpart, you're outputting your multi-select look up column, right? So, anywhere in your xsl stylesheet tags (but outside any other tags) you include the custom template "MultiSelectDisplay." Then, where you were just calling an xsl:value-of for your multi-select lookup column, instead call the second bit of xsl (the call-template). Does that make sense?
Actually the column is maybe this @serviceID, this column is the id that needs to be at the end of the link, ex: pgView.aspx?sfilter=@serviceID, which is sid20, or sid21 and so on.
So, the with-param link should be customized to the page you need it to go to (pgView.aspx?sfilter=, it looks like from what you posted). If you're not using just the ID of the item (like I'm doing) then you'll need to customize the MultSelectDisplay template to generate whatever you actually want to pass along.
Ya that makes sense. We keep getting an error. We placed the template piece in the section of the webpart then placed the call template in a text file and then in the web part properties linked it but get an error doing that. Do you have other screen shots on how you did it?
I've never been able to get SPD to play nicely with XSLT includes. They always error for me, even when they "should" work. I'll email you the full code from the webpart.

Geraldine Rose "Gerrie" Hammond (died November 1, 1992) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada.  She was a member of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1981 to 1990, and a cabinet minister in the Progressive Conservative government of Gary Filmon from 1988 to 1990.

Born Geraldine Rose McLean in Winnipeg, she was the daughter of George Saunders Foreman McLean and Harriet Rose Anderso and was educated in Winnipeg. She married Robert Douglas Hammond. Before entering provincial politics, Hammond served as a trustee on the St. James-Assiniboia School Division from 1977 to 1980. Hammond was an unsuccessful candidate for a seat in the provincial assembly in 1977 and 1980. She was first elected to the Manitoba legislature in the provincial election of 1981, defeating NDP candidate Lee Monk by nearly 3000 votes in the west-Winnipeg riding of Kirkfield Park.  In the 1986 election, she was re-elected by an even greater margin.  The NDP won both of these elections, and Hammond sat as a member of the official opposition.

In the provincial election of 1988, Hammond faced a strong challenge from Liberal candidate Irene Friesen, retaining her seat by only 255 votes.  The Progressive Conservatives were nonetheless able to form a minority government after this election, and on April 21, 1989, Hammond was named as Minister of Labour, with responsibility for the Status of Women, the Civil Service Act, the Civil Service Superannuation Act, the Civil Service Special Supplementary Severance Benefit Act, the Public Servants Insurance Act and the Workers Compensation Act (in matters relating to Worker Advisers).  Despite this mid-term cabinet promotion, Hammond did not seek re-election in 1990.  She died of cancer in 1992.

There is currently a Gerrie Hammond Memorial Award of Promise offered by the Council of Women of Winnipeg in her honour, and a Gerrie Hammond bursary offered by the University of Manitoba to single women in financial need.

As Minister of Labour, Hammond was accused by the opposition of patronage hiring outside of the province's Civil Service Act.  She also supported ending the province's rules for "final offer selection", in which an independent mediator would decide between the claims of labour and management.

Silk path exhibition opens in Britain
An exhibition entitled "The Silk Path: Trade, Travel, War and Faith" has opened in the British capital. It has been organized by the British Library and the British Museum, and will run through September 12.
According to curator Susan Whitfield, the exhibition features items from China, Japan, India and France. About 300 manuscripts, printed books, decorative artworks, and other objects dating from the period of flourish of the Silk Path have been put on display in the British Library.
Since the Silk Path linked Spain in the west with China in the east and Samarkand in the north with India in the south, the British Library's exhibition brings together artifacts from various cultures and historical periods, including Chinese books, silk prints representing Christian saints, and Persian glass wares, to give just a few examples.
Ms. Whitfield is also in charge of the international project Dunhuang, which is being pursued by the British Library in conjunction with scholars from other countries and whose aim is to study the life and history of the countries and regions crossed by the Silk Path in the first millennium AD.
A computer database listing archeological finds all along the Silk Path will be compiled in St. Petersburg before the end of this year, Ms. Whitfield revealed in a RIA interview. According to her, the St. Petersburg branch of the Institute of Oriental Studies, at the Russian Academy of Sciences, holds thousands of period manuscripts obtained by Russian expeditions in the first half of the 20th century.
Similar databases are already up and running at the British Library and the Chinese National Library, our interviewee said. According to her, the conversion of available images into the digital format, the preparation of captions, and systematization will begin in St. Petersburg with the next few months; the whole process of database creation will take about six months to complete. Ms. Whitfield did not say anything about the sources of financing the work, but it seems likely that the Dunhuang project she is running will cover all the expenses.

Q: as much / many as I'd like to know whether many or much should be used in the following:

a. A whale could weigh as much / many as two tons.
b. The company bought as much / many as two tons of cotton.

I'd appreciate your help.

A: The difference between as much and as many is basically the same as the difference between less or fewer.
If you are referring to something that you can count, for example a number of people or animals, you would use "as many".
Example:

There are not as many red squirrels as there used to be.
also:
  There are fewer squirrels than there used to be.

But if you are referring to a quantity of something which is not countable, for example, a quantity of water or other liquid, you would use "as much".
Example:

There is not as much water in the lake as there used to be.
also:
  There is less water in the lake than there used to be.

Just remember that if a quantity of something is grouped into containers, or by some other collective means that you can count - for example glasses of water then you use the appropriate language for the collective noun.
Finally though, when referring to measurements of something, as in your example of weight, you should use the appropriate language for the thing that you are measuring.
Example:

A whale could weigh as much as two tons.

This is correct because you can't "count" weight. You measure it. The same goes for your other example:

The company bought as much as two tons of cotton.

This is for the same reason that you can't "count" cotton and you can't "count" weight; but if the cotton came in boxes it would be different:

The company bought as many as two boxes of cotton.

Because you can count boxes.

A: Although you can count tons, kilos, pounds, ounces and so forth, with units of weight it is the total weight as a single quantity that governs the usage here.  Use much, because that's what 99.9% of native speakers do.


I wish it could be spring again, but yeah here in South Africa it's currently Autumn, so before the cold strikes I had to wear this easy and cute outfit one last time! This light pastel floral dress reminds me so much of spring and it's so easy to style.
This outfit can be dressed up or down making it perfect for a casual summer day or even more up style for work or even church.
So breaking the outfit down I'm starting with my dress, a light peachy pink dress with white and green floral detail. The back section of the dress is a very delicate lace which is so pretty but if you don't want to wear a sticky bra you will have to wear a white tank top underneath like I did which is still very beautiful and probably more appropriate for work.
I also like that way it sinks in at the waist just a tiny bit for a more flattering look.
For accessories I added a small cream handbag with gold detailing. I decided to go for a more plain handbag since the dress is busy, and a smaller bag fits just right with this dainty, girly outfit. I got this handbag from Shoe City, but honestly this is such a common style I'm sure you can find something quite similar almost anywhere.
I added this gold plated ring from Honey jewelry with a white flower made from a seashell, a flower ring emphasizes the floral girly style perfectly.
For my necklace I added this gold and blush pink statement necklace from Lovisa which adds so much flair to this light pastel dress.
For my bracelet I would actually have loved to add a floral bracelet similar to my necklace and earring but I can't seem to find one in the right colour anywhere, so I chose this gold tree of life bangle in my collection, also from Lovisa.
My earrings, to no surprise, also from Lovisa, and they are just gorgeous and perfect for this outfit.
Overall I think this is a really sweet girly look and so effortless and easy to put together.
You see, the best memories are made while having the most fun, and I think its also safe to say that the most photos are taking while on holiday, which leads me right to my point. How many of us have rejected taking a photo on holiday just because of how we look or the outfit we are wearing? Now don't get me wrong this is by no means about the physical image, but most of the time an old t-shirt and shorts is what fills up our bags.
Planning your outfit in advance not only makes packing easier but also helps you to feel good and makes it easier in the morning on holiday to get dressed. Planning what outfit you want to wear where and to what activity or location can also ensure some awesome photos… Even if you aren't into the whole photo and social media thing, I think most of you would agree that a nice photo of you and your loved ones captured in an awesome moment is a keeper.
As you can see in this photo taken on Table Mountain, Cape Town, South Africa, my outfit, which is nothing special and very basic, matches the environment pretty well. Now I have never been on Table Mountain before and I surely did not spend hours researching how it looks but I just thought… high up on a mountain, cloudy or clear skies, flowers or not, what colors would look really nice with such a scene, especially in photos? And a light denim with a nice light blue top and grey sandals is what I decided on, now at first taking photos the overlay of fabric on my top blew all over the place and I thought there goes my insta-ready travel photos, but as you can see it creates such nice movement into these photos.
So, in a nut shell what I mean is when you just put a little thought into your outfit and your surroundings you will most probably like you photos a whole lot more… A quick tip: wear plain/ neutral colors if you're not sure what to wear because they always work!

Q: Merge a list of dataframes keeping unique names (avoid duplicating names and NAs) I'm trying to merge a list of dataframes keeping unique names (avoid duplicating the names that are repeated across all dataframes). I have 4 dataframes with different number of rows each and I need to combine them all so that I only get the participants who took all tests
I get this, with Nas:

Variables:
class1Time1 : took VarA and VarB tests in 2021
class2Time1 : took VarA and VarB tests in 2021

class1Time1 : took VarA and VarB tests in 2022
class2Time1 : took VarA and VarB tests in 2022

so, "Var_Year" stands for the grades of each subject in the target year, but note that
not every subject took all tests

This is a simplified made-up version of my data
### create a similar data frame:

names1 <- c("Mary","John","Kate", "Bea", "Harry", "Hermione", "Rony", "Dobby")
names2 <- c("Harry", "Hermione", "Rony", "Dobby", "Dumbledore", "Snape", "Sirius")

class1Time1 <- data.frame(ID = names1[3:8], VarA_21 = sample(1:20, 6), VarB_21 = sample(1:20, 6))
class2Time1 <- data.frame(ID = names2[1:7], VarA_21 = sample(1:20, 7), VarB_21 = sample(1:20, 7))
class1Time2 <- data.frame(ID = names1[2:8], VarA_22 = sample(1:20, 7), VarB_22 = sample(1:20, 7))
class2Time2 <- data.frame(ID = names2[1:4], VarA_22 = sample(1:20, 4), VarB_22 = sample(1:20, 4))

### So, the only students that took all tests were "Harry" "Hermione" "Rony" "Dobby"

### Ok, now I'm taking all dataframes from the environment and putting them into a list:

together <- grep("class",names(.GlobalEnv), value=TRUE)

##### put into a list

my_list <- do.call("list", mget(together))

### Now I need ONLY the same names from all dataframes

test <- Reduce(function(...) full_join(...), my_list) ### doens't work

### I've tried merge(), rbind(), etc...

Note: I've tried to reproduce my actual data, but I couldn't do that without changing my participant's real names, that's why I've made the made-up version, but my actual data looks like this:

Question 1: how can I join all dataframes so that I have only one row per participants who took all tests ?
Question 2: If I can get Q1, then I believe that a simple filter would work afterwards to keep only complete.cases I suppose, right?
I've seen many solutions here including merge(), reduce, rbind, join (by = "ID), but none seemed to help me (I've tried them all). Thanks in advance.
Edit: I guess that I got closer with test <- Reduce(function(...) merge(..., all = TRUE, by="ID"), my_list), but it doesn't keep the columns original names, it duplicates the columns now

A: You can use inner joins here, as long as you specify in merge() that you are joining only on ID
Reduce(\(a,b) merge(a,b, by="ID"),my_list)

Output
        ID VarA_21.x VarB_21.x VarA_22.x VarB_22.x VarA_21.y VarB_21.y VarA_22.y VarB_22.y
1    Dobby         8         5        19         9         7        13         3         3
2    Harry        14         1         4        16        12         4        20         9
3 Hermione         4         4        14         4         1        17        14         6
4     Rony        18        18         7        18         2         9         7         2

Note: Reduce(merge, my_list) will by default inner join each of these in turn, but there are no matching results in the end because you have common column names beyond just ID (but different "scores in those columns)

A: As noted in discussion above it's hard to know what might be going on with your data to drop all rows. However there's perhaps a few things you can do to help pinpoint/fix problems:

*

*at the moment, your four dataframes have duplicated column names, and within each dataframe it doesn't "know" what class it belongs to. That's why columns are being duplicated in the above example. Tidying data would help here by inserting 'class' name to dataframes before merging.

*pivoting to change the shape of the data would make bind_rows a simple way to combine all the comparable values across times/tests.

*joining all at first would let you visually check that parts are there for expected people, then you can filter across all columns.

Here's a working of the above data using purrr and dplyr to manipulate lists and data frames:
library(tidyverse)

names1 <- c("Mary","John","Kate", "Bea", "Harry", "Hermione", "Rony", "Dobby")
names2 <- c("Harry", "Hermione", "Rony", "Dobby", "Dumbledore", "Snape", "Sirius")

class1Time1 <- data.frame(ID = names1[3:8], VarA_21 = sample(1:20, 6), VarB_21 = sample(1:20, 6))
class2Time1 <- data.frame(ID = names2[1:7], VarA_21 = sample(1:20, 7), VarB_21 = sample(1:20, 7))
class1Time2 <- data.frame(ID = names1[2:8], VarA_22 = sample(1:20, 7), VarB_22 = sample(1:20, 7))
class2Time2 <- data.frame(ID = names2[1:4], VarA_22 = sample(1:20, 4), VarB_22 = sample(1:20, 4))

together <- grep("class",names(.GlobalEnv), value=TRUE)
my_list <- do.call("list", mget(together))

my_list |>
  imap( ~ mutate(.x, class = str_extract(.y, "class\\d"))) |>
  map(
    pivot_longer,
    starts_with("Var"),
    names_to = "test_time",
    values_to = "score"
  ) |>
  reduce(bind_rows) |>
  pivot_wider(names_from = c(class, test_time),
              values_from = score) |>
  # This final line reduces down to only full rows. Can be cut out for checking.

Discovery – Early Thoughts (Spoilers)
Sci Fi, TV
It's finally here – the latest chapter in the Star Trek saga beamed to our screens over the past couple of days, marking a return to television for the first time since Enterprise ended in 2005. Star Trek Discovery is, like its predecessor, a prequel show – it is set ten years prior to the events of the original 1960s series. Bearing that in mind, Discovery is visually very different to TOS and this has not gone unnoticed – a number of fans took to Twitter and to message boards to criticise this approach. After all, we're not talking minor changes; the controls and displays on the Federation ships are as up-to-date as you can get, reflecting more of what we would conjure up now than the aesthetic of the original show. Given that Discovery is meant to be set in the 'Prime' universe and given it has been declared canon by the powers that be, we can either accept this very different set of visuals, or we can complain – but A: complaining won't undo anything and B: we have had only two episodes – who can say how the show might progress, on all fronts, as the story progresses?
Perhaps the biggest redesign (and one certainly noticed in the trailers) was with the Klingons. Their ships look different, their dress code is different and the Klingons themselves look different. Whilst they are immediately recognisable as Klingons, it's also very clear that they are not only visually altered, but there are cultural differences as well. Case in point is how they treat their dead, among other details. Once again there are complaints from certain elements of the fanbase – but this isn't the first time the Klingons have undergone physical and cultural changes. Recall the sudden (and unexplained for decades) change the Klingons underwent visually between TOS and the first movie. Recall the cultural changes between TOS and TNG, when the Klingons went from scheming political maneuverers to Vikings in space. The suggestion that Klingon society should be presented as static and unchanging is no more realistic than suggesting human societies and cultures have remained static.
Finally, before delving into the episodes themselves, a few words on the canon matter. 'Canon' in this context refers to an established continuity, a set timeline and set of events that is fixed into Star Trek lore. The 'Prime' timeline refers to the one established back in TOS, whereas the 'Kelvin' timeline refers to the new, divergent timeline established in the 2009 Star Trek film. Executive Producer Bryan Fuller said at the San Diego Comic Con in 2016 that the show was set in the Prime timeline. That is, frankly, all the information we need, and sets the rules we have to work by. That being said, Discovery does feel like a reboot, in terms of style, with so far, very little to connect it to the rest of the Star Trek franchise. It cannot work with the Kelvin timeline at all, despite early hints that it could in theory slot into either timeline. Nonetheless, the official statements are the ones we live by.
On to the show, so to speak. Was it any good (beyond this point, there be spoilers)
(you have been warned)
The short answer is – maybe. The long answer – it was interesting without being overly tremendous. Although a lot happened in the opening episode, not a lot happened (if that makes sense), and whilst the second episode (hidden beyond a pay wall, something I've griped about already) involved a lot of action, it still didn't really feel like a lot happened. The first two episodes have been entirely about setting up the rest of the episodes, rather than standing on their own right.
We don't even see the starship Discovery herself – the titular vehicle isn't even hinted at. Instead, virtually all the action takes place on the Shenzhou, and this ship – which got a lot of airtime in the trailers – is short-lived.
Of the characters… well, only two appear to be moving from the Shenzhou to Discovery, and of those, we only really get to know one, Commander Michael Burnham, who we learn was learning the ways of the Vulcans before an attack by the Klingons. Her story will be the main thrust of the series, but beyond establishing a firm dislike of the Klingons and having her confidence in herself badly shaken, we don't yet know much. This is not surprising – a pilot episode is hardly going to reveal all the show's secrets – so we can't really jump to many conclusions. All in all, there is enough there to lure me back, though I am thankful I have family/friends with Netflix, as there isn't enough there to convince me to subscribe.

Sonatype Nexus Token Authentication Proxy
=========================================

## Purpose

To provide token authentication capabilities to Sonatype Nexus OSS
by using the Remote User Token headers available in Nexus

## Operation
This application maintains an embedded HSQLDB database of user<->token mappings
which when properly verified will set the REMOTE_USER header for requests
proxied to the Nexus server. This application also provides a web application
which allows for the management of the user tokens. That web application uses
an authentication request to the Nexus server's REST API to authenticate
the user.

## Prerequisites
* Java JDK >= 1.7
* Maven >= 3.0
* Internet Access (to download dependencies)

## Building

```bash
mvn clean package
```
