Age limit and the irony of being worked up over Emperor Museveni
byJACOBS O. SEAMAN | PML Daily
Yoweri Museveni is no longer just a name. The annoying joke passing around that we should just declare Uganda a monarchy and sit back and relax until nature sorts its emperor actually makes a sobering sense to those who know a thing or two about tactical retreat. Yoweri Museveni is a monarchy now. It's not good to admit but it's not too late to do so either. It's as well good that we named the republic after him in some way or by a title he chooses for his undying vision for the country. Emperors are not called by their names, they are known by their titles.
Leopard, Emperor Visionary or whatever, Ugandans are currently worked up over ongoing plans to amend more articles in the Constitution to allow him run for re-election when his current term ends in 2021. By then, the only living emperor reigning without being crowned will be 77 going by his official date of birth. He will be ineligible to run for office as the Constitution bars persons aged 75 and over from vying for the country's executive job.
But what will happen? Well, here are some bitter facts we must come to terms with. The son of Kaguta will get his wish. And Ugandans—at least there are some who still hold the nation dear—will sulk for weeks and return to business as usual. It's a pattern we have lived with for ages.
By 1981, Museveni was already clever enough to see through the facade of our bloated sense of patriotism and courage that he never trusted any of the Ugandan politicians. Museveni knew that the so-called roasting of Uganda Martyrs at Namugongo with tales that they were cheering on as they burnt to ash could only have happened in a movie that every producer rejected. Museveni saw firsthand and was part of the group of 'liberators' who had to turn to Tanzania to help remove Idi Amin from office. Ugandans? We were sat on our thumbs.
Ugandans just couldn't do anything for themselves. Wait, let me rephrase that; we couldn't and we still can't do anything for ourselves. Museveni has lived and seen all these. He treated Ugandans and continues to treat them with such disdain you would think he rinsed his mouth with with acid. Read his Mustard Seed book and how he describes various manners he approached meetings between himself and several top leaders in the country at the time.
It's no wonder that to get his grand dream going, Museveni convinced Rwandan refugees and former refugees turned Ugandans into taking up arms with him. These people meant business. They had a sense of direction, determination… where Kenyans and Tanzanians shed blood for their soil and independence, Ugandans waited on suited men to carry bowls to the British and ask for some crumbs.
As the suited men jostled with the negotiations, the rest waited by the roadside to cheer. These scenarios would be repeated with each change of guard. Amin overthrow, Obote overthrow, the Lutwas and all… until he arrived with his fellow 'liberators.'
Fast forward to February 19, 2016, and Ugandans were left mourning. Kampala was deserted. Quieter than a mortician's parlour. After they had dried their tears and seen a few who put up feeble street resistance beaten into cabbages, they came out of their hiding to resume from where they had left off.
At the heart of all these is a phenomenon defined by avarice. Everything in Uganda revolves around money. Look at the many people who are willing to accept a Tee and some platter of hurriedly cooked meat in return for being ferried from their home to add to the crowd cheering on their man. How do you expect a boda boda man who thinks that fueling his motorcycles is more important than paying a medical doctor to care about age limit?
It takes some special body organ transplants for one to convince the nation that the bunch of legislators who are more interested in cash for cars than equip the National Cancer Centre will protect the Constitution against a second round of a major rape. Remember, the Constitution is subjected to all sorts of insults by the executive and its wing of an increasingly militaristic police force day in and out without as much as a cough from those tasked with its protection. Parliament has never done anything but keep endorsing the same Kale Kayihura whenever he shows up for reappointment formalities while wearing the Constitution at his feet.
Uganda crossed the Rubicon in July 2005. At the time, the country still had a semblance of sane political leaders. But once they had fallen for Museveni's machinations, even that mere semblance was gone. What was left of it was a bunch of disillusioned politicians like Eriya Kategaya and Bidandi Ssali.
Put succinctly, we allowed our virgin daughter called Constitution to walk into the gates of the Palace because we were all shrouded in a mist of greed and false belief that the Emperor would make good his many promises. We had overlooked the fact that once a maiden enters a palace, she can only ever come out as a dead body headed for the countryside tombs.
And now we are all worked up over the Emperor deciding what to do with 'a maiden-no-more' that we blessed him with. We are expecting the man who, with the arrogance of a ghost, declared national resources as his personal property (my oil) to be defeated in a grand scheme like how to bed the maiden daughter we sent him. That won't happen.
I will take a tactical retreat.

A corrido is a traditional style of dance and music of Spain. In some areas of Castilla, this form was known as salteado. This dance was very popular in all Castilla and León in 19th and early 20th century.

This form has an irregular rhythm, typically Castillian. The corrido consists of two parts, the first being of oscillatory and lateral movement in fast pace, and the second is similar to the jota.

Prince Charles takes over duties as Queen is in mourning once again
Last edited on December 8, 2021 at 6:37 PM
By Maya Lou on December 8, 2021 at 1:00 PM
The Queen has decided not to attend a public engagement shortly after the death of her closest aide.
On 3 December, the Queen lost one of her closest friends and loyal aids—the Duchess of Grafton who was 101 years old. The devastating loss came as a huge blow to the Queen, who just grieved the death of her husband, Prince Philip, eight months ago.
The Duchess of Grafton
The Duchess of Grafton, who also goes by the name Ann Fortune FitzRoy, had been working for the monarchy since 1953 and had been by the Queen's side for her entire 69-year reign. FitzRoy first worked as a Lady of the Bedchamber, and then in 1966 she was appointed the Mistress of the Robes. As the person in charge of the monarch's wardrobe, jewellery, along with other household affairs, her relationship with the Queen was considered more as friendship than anything else.
The two ladies were so close that FizRoy even made the Queen the godmother of her second child, Virginia Fitzroy, shortly after she started working for the royal family. Likewise, the Queen thanked her for her continued loyalty and friendship by awarding her the Dame Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order in 1980.
Given their long standing relationship, her passing has not been easy for the Queen. According to The Sun, the Queen was due to present the Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering at St. James' Palace on Wednesday (8 December) butPrince Charles will attend the ceremony in her stead.
This has been a particularly devastating year for the Queen of England, who did not only have to suffer the death of her husband, Prince Philip, during a raging pandemic. But also had to withstand many controversies surrounding the royal family—from Prince Harry and Meghan's rift with the family, to sex abuse allegations against her son Prince Andrew.
The Queen also had a health scare of her own in October, which required her to skip out several commitments including COP26 and a royal tour in Northern Ireland.

Hello everyone!. I thought I would give you just a quick update. Grandma has over 50% swallowing, so they are letting her have some jello I think or it might be applesauce. The first day I heard about this she had 50% and they said they would let her try some jello to see how she would do. Then the next day was a little more and I heard something about applesauce. I am not quite sure. Also, today my uncle called my grandmothers name, and I guess she was asleep, and it sounded like my uncle was in distress so she whipped her head around real fast. Almost all the way to the left, everyone saw this, even the nurses, they went whoa, they were a little startled that she could do that. That is some improvement.
Also when Health South releases Grandma we are having her put into Manor Park to continue her therapy. This will also give us time to get the house ready for her, for when she is ready to come home. We want her to have as much physical therapy that she can get, that way she will be able to do more for herself when she does come home. She is a strong, proud woman, and this will get her back on her feet, and not have to depend on us as much. She was already having to depend on us because of her not being able to see very well. I was helping to balance her checkbook, and pay her bills, mom, and my uncle was taking her to doctor appointments and to the store. Now this it will be too much if she can't do for herself when she gets home. So we are making sure she has all the physical therapy that she needs before she gets home.

U.S. Begins Production Of A New Nuclear Weapon
By Geoff Brumfiel • Jan 31, 2019
The U.S. has begun production of a new nuclear weapon. Supporters of the weapon say it's needed to counter Russia, but critics worry it's taking America back to a time when nuclear weapons were more likely to be used. NPR's Geoff Brumfiel has more.
Trump Administration Begins Production Of A New Nuclear Weapon
The U.S. Department of Energy has started making a new, low-yield nuclear weapon designed to counter Russia.
The National Nuclear Security Administration says production of the weapon, known as the W76-2, has begun at its Pantex Plant in the Texas Panhandle. The fact that the weapon was under production was first shared in an e-mail to the Exchange Monitor, an industry trade magazine, and independently confirmed by NPR.
What's Iran Up To With Recent Rocket Launch Attempt?
Earlier this week, Iran attempted to launch a rocket carrying a satellite into space. The Trump administration says their goal is really to develop long-range weapons. NPR's Geoff Brumfiel looks into what Iran is up to.
Trump Unveils Ambitious Missile Defense Plans
President Trump unveiled a sweeping plan Thursday to defend the U.S. and its allies from missile attack.
The plan is the first update to the nation's missile defense strategy in nearly a decade, but in many ways it is reminiscent of President Ronald Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative, a pie-in-the-sky program that was later dubbed "Star Wars."
Iran Is Preparing A Launch. But Is It For A Space Rocket Or A Missile?
About once a day, little satellites zip over northern Iran and snap a few pictures of the Imam Khomeini Space Center. The satellites, operated by a company in San Francisco called Planet, haven't recorded much — until recently.
With Key Government Agencies Shut Down, Science Sputters
By Gisele Grayson, Joe Palca & Geoff Brumfiel • Jan 10, 2019
Big, important scientific breakthroughs are built of small, incremental experiments. And the partial government shutdown is already interfering with some of that research.
Scientists often depend on the government for grant funding, expertise and — in some cases — even regulatory approval. With the shutdown, some researchers are missing those key elements of scientific collaboration. Here's how some scientists say the shutdown is affecting their work.
U.S. Carbon Dioxide Emissions Are Once Again On The Rise
By Geoff Brumfiel • Jan 8, 2019
Carbon dioxide emissions in the U.S. are on the rise again after several years of decline, and a booming economy is the cause.
That's according to a report out today from the Rhodium Group, an independent research firm that tracks CO2 emissions in the U.S.
How To Stop A Drone? There's No Good Answer
By Geoff Brumfiel • Dec 21, 2018
Shoot it down. Jam it. Use a missile or maybe a net.
There's no shortage of ideas about how to stop a drone, but as the past few days at London's Gatwick Airport show, the reality is far more difficult.
From Wednesday night to Friday morning, flights in and out of Gatwick were halted after a small drone, or perhaps multiple drones, were spotted over the airfield. Hundreds of flights were canceled and thousands of passengers saw their holiday travel plans grounded.
Open Scientific Collaboration May Be Helping North Korea Cheat Nuclear Sanctions
By Geoff Brumfiel & Sean McMinn • Dec 19, 2018
For years, the world has imposed strict sanctions on North Korea in an attempt to stop its development of nuclear weapons. Officials from nations across the globe have seized shipments of raw materials, shut down shell companies and interdicted ships smuggling equipment.
But despite these efforts, last year North Korea tested the most powerful weapons known to humanity: a nuclear device far larger than any it had tested before, and an intercontinental ballistic missile that put much of the world, including the U.S., within range.
North Korea Seen Expanding Missile Base
By Geoff Brumfiel • Dec 5, 2018
Updated Dec. 12 at 4:20 p.m. ET
North Korea appears to be expanding a missile base in a remote, mountainous part of the country, according to new commercial satellite imagery studied by independent researchers.

Subjects: Immigration Studies, Race, Power & Privilege, Class Disparities
Contending with the constant attack on immigrants and Immigration Law, the lawyers on the front-lines are feeling burned out and disillusioned. This film takes us into the lives and work of five members of an informal support group comprised of Mexican-American, solo-practitioners who got their start at the same high-intensity law firm in Los Angeles. Through their friendship and constant communication, Araceli, Alma, Gladdys, Elizabeth and Jose provide professional and emotional support for each other as they navigate the constant attacks on their clients and profession. Through their perspectives, we see how changes in the interpretation of the laws and in legal procedures directly affect the people they so passionately advocate for by endangering their safety and prolonging family separation. After several years in the trenches, even the most dedicated come to question whether they can continue in this often-heartbreaking line of work.

Define your goals and create a plan. – We help our students to design a clear study plan based on each student's level and expectations. We also believe that the purpose of studying mandarin is not just to imitate or only be roughly understood. Genuine language study needs to be systematic and involve a thorough understanding of origins, usages and structure. At Mandarin Collective, teachers guide students in their progress through the language with a step by step method from pronunciation to expression to grammar and, finally, to reading and writing.
Practical resources and materials. – We provide insightful advice to our students on choosing the books that are best suited to their particular needs and level and we design materials suited to each individual student's progress. We are constantly developing our teaching materials and resources to ensure that they are practical, up-to-date and easy to follow. Done right, language study is not just a process of repetition and by rote memorization. At Mandarin Collective, we use role playing and everyday situations to ensure the language you learn is functional and practical. Our students also have the opportunity to practice outside of the classroom with a language exchange partner from Mandarin Collective.
Understand the culture. – Language and culture go hand in hand. In China, there are various festivals, cultural activities and rules of etiquette that are vastly different from Western countries. At the Mandarin Collective, we help students to understand and feel confident in participating in this colorful culture through activities and role playing based on real situations. Our teachers also teach students how to understand the nuances of Chinese culture and the sometimes elusive meaning behind the language itself.

Honey, I shrunk the Kubernetes core to grow its ecosystem
By Swapnil Bhartiya February 21, 2018 1403 views
Did you know that the Kubernetes community is not just about distributed systems, it's also about distributed decision making?
Sarah Novotny is one of the most inspiring leaders in the open source world. She leads the Open Source Strategy group for Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Prior to that she was technology evangelist and community manager at NGINX. I have been following her career for a long time and got an opportunity to meet and interview her at KubeCon. We discussed a wide range of topics around her work at Google and Kubernetes. Here is an edited version of that interview.
Swapnil Bhartiya: Can you talk a bit about the group that you lead at GCP?
Sarah Novotny: The group is working to ensure that open source projects which are strategically important to Google and users on GCP are healthy, sustainable, stable, open, and continue to be able to grow and be strong projects over time.
What kind of engagement does Google have with these projects, how much of it is at code level?
It really depends on the projects. Some of them are at code level, others are at community and governance levels. My team focuses more on the broad health of the community. We have program managers and technical program managers who are looking at the process, the governance and engagement in the community inside projects. Some of these projects are either led or spawned from Google. There are many other projects which already exist and are important to our open source customers.
Right now we are focusing on seven projects, including gRPC, Istio, Kubernetes, Golang, Node.js, Apache Beam, Tensorflow. We are working with the engineers involved with these projects. These engineers can be from Google or from partner companies trying to help grow happy, healthy ecosystems. Sometimes these projects are part of a foundation. In any case, it's all about bringing forward the open source culture and making sure that it has great strength.
The way we do it is by establishing a culture that is influenced through servant leadership and grows leadership through influence. – Sarah Novotny
Why does Google open source its technologies? They have all the engineers, they have all the money. They don't need external help.
Google chooses to open source the project when we want to change the way the industry is having a conversation. It is much harder to change the conversation from a single perspective. Moments ago, you and I were talking about broader culture and how having more perspectives makes for a more empathetic and more engaged group. It also makes for a more whole perspective of an end-user experience.
Kubernetes, for example, began as a partnership between a number of companies – Red Hat, IBM, Google, CoreOS. We all sat down and started working on a way to change the conversation of a portable workload unit for the cloud. Instead of talking about virtual machines or jar files, let's use containers as the portable workload unit.
Google had already done that internally. Google was using containers as the method of delivery and portable workload units inside for years. But that doesn't change the industry. Google alone can't change the industry by simply saying "this is the best way to do it so everyone should do it, too". There was a need for a broad coalition — a great group of people pulled together to build a project that brought in a lot more influences and perspectives from customers, from other companies, which made this change in the industry, made this change in the way we talk about cloud workload units.
Very true, but I wonder how you then maintain the balance between the business needs and the needs of the community. When you open source a project, you also give up the control, the influence and the direction of the project. Now, the larger community, which you are part of makes decisions about it.
You've actually touched on my last two years, the way we do this, the way we try to make sure that these are happy and healthy projects. The way we do it is by establishing a culture that is influenced through servant leadership and grows leadership through influence.
We've established core values in our community that include things like chopping wood, carrying water. We make sure that we are not coming to this project as a company who needs a feature. Instead, we are coming as individual developers, contributors, program managers, community leaders who are helping build a better project that meets more needs, it gains ubiquity. That ubiquity is what changes the conversation.
The way Google helped build a foundation around Kubernetes, was to make sure that the conversation was very broad. It was about customer needs. It was about container and cloud workloads, not how to best run containers on Google Cloud Platform. It was about meeting the end user's needs of a hybrid cloud. It was about applications and workloads that work on GCP, AWS, Azure, on premises and so on. It was about building a broad partnership across the industry.
Does Open Source also help in creating standards? You don't need to go to ISO. Open Source creates standards that are supported by the ecosystem. Look at Linux.
Yes, it's a lot like, or possibly better, than the standards bodies of the nineties. Instead of defining standards and specifications early on, we now instead build open source projects that evolve and find these standards and specifications as we build them with code. So it's not spec first in most cases. It's code first and then we find and coalesce around a standard. And that happens in a way that changes the industry.
If open source kind of creates standards, why was there a need for Kubernetes Conformance?
Conformance is slightly different. There's a certified conformance and this is actually how we are able to measure, manage and prevent drift of what it means to be "Kubernetes." Kubernetes as a project needs to allow a broad ecosystem to build around it. That is the only way this makes any sense. Any open source needs to have this broad ecosystem, but this broader ecosystem is built with vendors and interested parties. These are businesses; they need ways to make monetize from it. Open source is wonderful and it's a huge cultural change in the way software is developed, but we are still companies building products and services.
Our Steering Committee and Architecture Community are working on making Kubernetes core itself smaller while making the Kubernetes ecosystem bigger.
Very true, open source is a software development model, not a business model. That said, different vendors implementing their own versions of the same open source project may lead to interoperability issues or even vendor lock-in.
We do need to make space for the ecosystem to grow. There are a couple of ways we can do that. One is making sure that when we say Kubernetes we mean the same thing. When you run Ubuntu Kubernetes, Heptio Kubernetes, Red Hat OpenShift or run it on GKE, Azure or AWS, you should have the same expectations. You can interact with Kubernetes in the same way.
That's what our certified Kubernetes conformance is. We have a set of conformance tests and if you meet those tests, you can use the Kubernetes brand. That's one way to grow a healthy ecosystem. Another way the ecosystem grows is through all the tooling around Kubernetes – APIs and extensibilities.
You have made it easier for me to transition to my next question. While Kubernetes is getting wider adoption it also risks losing its focus, we have seen that earlier with open source projects. So how do you ensure you won't make the same mistakes that others did while Kubernetes continues to remain a very focused project, you also enable the ecosystem around it to continue to grow?
We're hoping that we always make new mistakes because that is one of the core values. Our culture is learning from what we've done, what others have done.
We are working as a community to define, a shrinking Kubernetes core. We are trying to move more pieces of the code base out of Kubernetes and potentially into their own projects, into their own repositories within the Kubernetes organization to keep Kubernetes really crisp and moving at a pace.
But that's Kubernetes core, not Kubernetes the ecosystem. The ecosystem continues to grow and evolve. A smaller Kubernetes core means that we have more innovation, more engagement and more opportunity for businesses and for communities to grow around Kubernetes. That work is happening in the Special Interest Group (SIG) architecture, a lot of conversations around culture, community and leadership are happening in the steering committee.
Kubernetes as a project has grown massively in the last two years. We just got a governing body that's working to distribute all of the decision making. We want to make it more clear and codify it better. We also want to be able to empower all these different groups to do all the amazing things they want to do around the core of Kubernetes.
Distributed decision making! I have heard that before. Can you elaborate a bit on it? What does it mean?
We try to push the decisions closer to the people that are working on the code. A distributed decision-making system would be make sure that decisions about APIs – even though they are cutting across the whole project- are made within the SIG API machinery group. The Helm group makes their own decisions, without needing to the steering committee. So, we're trying to make sure that those decisions are pushed closer to where the code and the people that are most engaged with those pieces of code and pieces of the project have the most influence.
But as these groups work, if I may use the pun, within their own containerized group won't that create some kind of integration problem?
Maybe, but that is part of how the steering committee is trying to improve the system.
Let's change the topic. Kubernetes is being used in so many different and new use cases. With huge adoption comes huge challenges, what are the big challenges that you see?
Making sure that we have a way for interested, excited people to interact with the project. Our biggest challenge right now is making sure that we have a clean definition of what is Kubernetes and then making sure that the edges are really easy to engage. We want to make sure that Kubernetes is a project where people can innovate easily on top of it.
We all know that orchestration is becoming a commodity, which also means it's going to become boring. So, do you keep the technology boring the discussions around it interesting?
I think that's actually the right way for it to move. Dan Kohn, the executive director of CNCF quoted Tim Hockin and said: 'It's an exciting time for boring infrastructure'. The more we can make this good infrastructure solid, boring and commoditized, the better that will be for the project allowing the ecosystem to flourish.
How is Google making discussions around Kubernetes interesting in some unorthodox manner?
Google has put out a comic about Kubernetes created by famed Scott McCloud. It's called 'Smooth Sailing With Kubernetes'. Google is actually taking a look at how to use visual displays of information in order to teach and to share. I'm excited that Google is looking at that visual display and that artistic engagement with how to share information. And it's really fun to have it be part of this adventure with Kubernetes.

Yesterday saw the Cincinnati Reds fall to the Milwaukee Brewers in spring training action, 6-4. That wasn't the story, though – Scooter Gennett leaving the game with a groin injury was. They'll get back on the field today to take on the Cleveland Indians, with hopefully a better result, at 4;05pm ET.
Also scheduled to pitch for the Cincinnati Reds today: Matt Bowman, Michael Lorenzen, and Wandy Peralta.
The game will be live on Reds.com for audio. The game will not be available on the radio. You can also watch the game live on Fox Sports Ohio and MLB.tv.
Looks like we're facing the Indian's opening day lineup.
After the turmoil of yeterday's final roster decisions, Scooter's groin injury during the game and the announced roster decisions to counter Scooter's recovery and rehab, two key members involved in the turmoil decided to make statement out of the chute. Winker and Iglesias go yard in the 1st inning.
TYVM Old-school and spot on. Use the opportunity to evaluate when to take those smart chances and when to utilize smart caution during game conditions.
Exactly, the only way to find out your limitations is to go beyond the bounds.
With respect, these players are not 12 years old, they should already know their limitations.
Jesse Winker haters… Please comment….. Spring training stat guys…. Please comment. Phil Ervin guys…. Please comment. Trevor bauer isn't that AA guy in the 7 th inning.
Your all fired up today!
i guess your ready for the season to start.
Jesse Winker 2-3 today w/ 2-HR, 1-BB & 1-HBP. His hardest hit ball on the day was an absolute missile shot that nearly undressed the 2B, who recovered to throw Winker out at 1B. Winker even got a couple innings defensively in CF today.
Jose Iglesias chipped in at the plate today going 2-4 w/ 2-HR.
Iglesias' were bombs against Bauer. Jose Iglesias is a joy to watch fielding. Not since Davey and Barry have I seen a Red's SS display this type of glove work and arm.
With time running out, bowman may have punched his ticket to AAA today, giving up a big HR in his 1 inning of work, but Peralta threw 0's again in his 1 inning of work.
Wisler's 3 hits and a HR yesterday in 1.2 IP , despite his 4 SO, may have thrown a wrench into his chances of making the opening day roster too.
Not concerned about Bowman given the medical issues he's recovering from. Perhaps 20-30 ip in Louisville is a good plan for him in any event. What to do with Wisler/Sims/BobSteve and Wandy are tougher issues. They've all proven that they're on the cusp, and cannot seem to move beyond that. Hard for a contending team to justify a 25 man spot to determine if they can.
The Scooter injury is a blessing in disguise in a sense. Defensively our infield instantly goes from below average to well above average. Plus I think this is really going to take some pressure off Peraza as he will now be playing his natural position. Finally you have an additional stolen base threat with Iglesias.
Astute observation, so long as Peraza and Iglesias bat 7th/8th. Puig/Kemp/healthy Winker should prove more than a replacement in the order for Scooter. Still, they should let Scooter fully recover, even if it means DL until the All-Star break.
Scooter's injury may have several implications. Since Reds have not offered him a contract extension, not even has been discussed, I think it's safe to say they were looking for the trade deadline to get something in return. As he's expected to return in early June that plan has vanished. Time will tell.
I liked Hamilton myself and I like Winker but your post answers itself. Both players have really good skills and very evident flaws. So the choice is loose 3-2 or 8-9 to some extent. I think a little more balance in skills is easier for a section of fan base to accept. With our struggles with pitching their flaws are magnified. We need one's defense and the other's bat. People disagree on which is most valuable thus which player they favor.
True enough, but I suspect it will be much easier to manage 500+ productive PAs out of Winker than BHam. Especially considering the huge difference in BBs between the two.


On Monday I started the DASH Diet Plan. I'm not going to call it a diet, but more of a healthy way of eating. I've had high blood pressure for a few years. Over the last month I was feeling dizzy and finally went to the doc. My BP was 150/84 - while on medication! The main focus of the diet is to cut out all sugar, salt and starch (for the first two weeks). No bread, no pasta, no wine.....WHAAAAAA! So don't cringe, I'll be posting healthier recipes that can be adjusted to your liking! You don't have to eliminate salt entirely - just in moderation. Let's face it, some things just need a little salt. This is the second recipe I have made from the cookbook with some adjustments. These wraps have lots of crunch with a little spicy kick. Great for lunch or dinner!
Combine the soy sauce, ketchup, vinegar, Stevia and sesame oil in a small bowl and mix together until the sugar dissolves.
Heat 1 Tbsp. of the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and ginger, cook until fragrant. Add mushrooms, onions and water chestnuts. Stir in broccoli slaw. Add a little more oil if necessary. Cook until vegetables are tender but still crisp. Stir in chopped chicken, reserved sauce and cook until chicken is heated through.


Join a young shepherdess as she guides and protects her herd to ensure her family's future in the depths of space! This story was written for a writing challenge. I challenged myself to write a 1,000 word short story based off of 5 images. The result was one of my all time favorites.
A shard seeker on the frontier of space is haunted by her past and hounded by her employer. Will her wits and skills be enough to strike a deal that will put her back into space and onto the trail of what was lost?

This story was written for a writing challenge. Based off of five images I challenged myself to write a 1,000 word short story, the result was a little long but came out great. Join a young shepherdess as she guides and protects her herd to ensure her family's future in the depths of space!
This is an incomplete science fiction project I started early in my creative writing career. I'll be revising the grammar and style slowly over the next few days, so bear with. The idea was to keep a journal from the perspective of an individual lost in foreign land, chronicling his discoveries as he comes closer to the truth of where he is, how he arrived there, and what he must do to survive.
I'm usually quite liberal about sharing my writing, plots, and stories on the internets. I've learned that plots and ideas are a dime a dozen, but that it is writing style and skill that are unique and can sell a story. That said, I have three projects that I'm keeping close to the vest, here is an excerpt from one of those three that has already been shared elsewhere online in the past.
EVA is an excerpt from an old short story based on one of my favorite characters. She has a long and sordid history that I have yet to fully write out but this skips ahead to the end. You will note the story is heavily inspired by one of my favorite under appreciated movies 'Mimic". It still needs some refining, but here it is.

Q: Googlemap not showing inside a coordinatelayout in child activity In my current project I have BaseActivity child activity feature.
Base xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
         xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
         xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="match_parent"
         tools:context=".Activity.BaseActivity">

<LinearLayout
    android:id="@+id/llBody"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"></LinearLayout>

<include layout="@layout/toolbaar_layout"/>
</FrameLayout>

So all the child activities are added to this llbody layout and viewed as required.
Now in one of my activity I need to show a map.
If I create a mapfragment xml as simple as
<fragment xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
      xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
      android:id="@+id/map"
      android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="match_parent"
      tools:context=".Activity.MapsActivity"/>

Its showing map as usual. but I plan to do a bit of design and stuff so i need floatingbutton, so I need to have a coordinatelayout. So I created the xml like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
tools:context=".Activity.BaseActivity">

<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">

    <android.support.design.widget.CollapsingToolbarLayout
        android:id="@+id/collapse_toolbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
        app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|exitUntilCollapsed">

        <fragment
            android:id="@+id/map"
            android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="300dp"
            android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
            app:layout_collapseMode="parallax"
            app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"/>

        <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
            android:id="@+id/toolbar"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
            app:layout_collapseMode="pin"/>

    </android.support.design.widget.CollapsingToolbarLayout>

</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>

<android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton
    android:id="@+id/fab"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="bottom|end"
    android:layout_margin="@dimen/fab_margin"
    android:src="@android:drawable/ic_dialog_email"/>

</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

But now the problem arises that is
mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map);
    mapFragment.getMapAsync(this);

mapfragment is null, its not able to find the mapfragment.
Any hint what might be going wrong? Any clues..
Please help..

A: You are casting MapFragment to SupportMapFragment which may cause issue. Use SupportMapFragment with AppCompat Library.
Change the fragment in xml as.
  <fragment
            android:id="@+id/map"
            android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="300dp"
            android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
            app:layout_collapseMode="parallax"
            app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"/>

A: I used your same xml file in java code i changed like this.It is working for me
GoogleMap mGoogleMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(
                R.id.map)).getMap();

Add api key in manifest
<meta-data
            android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
            android:value="write_your_api_key_here" />

What is School Loop for Parents and Guardians?
School Loop is an online classroom portal for the K-12 school community. It enables members of a school site to communicate and collaborate with one another. As a parent/guardian, once you are registered and approved by the school site, you are able to access important information about your child's assignments, grades, attendance and school-wide events.
You may find an overview of School Loop by clicking here.
A. If your child is in elementary school, please contact your school office to find out your child's Student ID number. If your child is is in middle or high school, the Student ID number can be found on a report card, your child's Student ID card, the course schedule, or you can contact your school office.
Q. Are there School Loop parent registration instructions? In what languages?
A. There are a couple of different ways to get to the page. One way is go to the School Directory section on this page and click the link to see a complete list of schools. Find your school and click the link.
Another way is to go to sfusd.edu and click "Schools" on the left navigation bar. Click the type of school or "All Schools" and then click on your school's link. Look for "School Loop" and click the link next to it.
Q. How do I see my student's grades?
A. After you register, you will be able to see your student's grades once your account has been approved by someone at your school site who can verify that you are your student's legal guardian. This may take up to one week or more, depending on your school site.

Sponsored by Austria, Brazil, Ireland, Mexico, Nigeria, and South Africa, the resolution (A/C.1/71/L.41) was approved by a vote of 123 to 38 with 16 abstentions. The United States and other nuclear-armed states voted against the resolution. The proposal will be considered and likely approved by the General Assembly in the coming weeks.
The resolution follows three international conferences in 2013 and 2014 to consider the humanitarian impact of nuclear weapons use and discussions by an open-ended working group on nuclear disarmament in 2016.
"Today's vote marks a new phase in the decades-long struggle to eliminate the threats posed by nuclear weapons. In order to attain a world free of nuclear weapons, it will be necessary, at some point, to establish a legally-binding norm to prohibit such weapons. As such, the pursuit of a treaty banning the development, production, possession and use of nuclear weapons is a key step along the way.
Although the world's nuclear-armed states will likely boycott the negotiations on a nuclear weapons ban, this unprecedented new process could help to further delegitimize nuclear weapons and strengthen the legal and political norm against their use—a worthy goal.
The strong support for negotiations on a ban treaty needs to be understood as a logical international response to the growing risks and catastrophic consequences of a conflict between nuclear-armed states, the accelerating global technological nuclear arms race, and underwhelming pace of progress by the world's nine nuclear-armed states on nuclear disarmament in recent years.


It looks like the Mix 3 won't have an in-display fingerprint sensor, but this wicked color variant might soften the blow.
The new Xiaomi flagship is set to arrive October 25 with a pop-up camera, 5G support, and the most RAM a smartphone has ever seen.
The Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 is expected to launch next month. Here's what it needs to grab consumers' attention and outsell its predecessor.
Xiaomi just announced that 40 of its devices will see an update to the latest version of MIUI. Some of the devices even date back to 2012. Click here for the full list.
The new gestures prepare Xiaomi fans for a future where its smartphones no longer have the software buttons at the bottom.
Xiaomi's 2016 "bezel-less" phone will compete against the LG G6 and Samsung Galaxy S8 on their home turf.
Xiaomi has announced that it will sell products for the first time in Vietnam with the launch of the Redmi Note 4, Redmi 4A and Mi MIX.
Xiaomi is not done pushing the envelope – rumors out of China claim that the Mi Mix 2 will be even more compact for its screen size.
Xiaomi has announced that the Mi MIX is coming to the UAE and confirmed that more markets outside China are coming soon.
Though we know essentially nothing about the second-generation Mi MIX, we've put together a few things that we would like to see the second time around.

Lehrerschmidt, bürgerlich Kai Schmidt (* 1979 in Nordhorn) ist ein deutscher Webvideoproduzent sowie Schulleiter der Oberschule Uelsen in Niedersachsen.

Biographie
Nachdem Schüler die für sie erstellten Videos von Schmidt verbreitet hatten, lud der Mathematik-Lehrer diese direkt bei YouTube hoch und wurde zum "Mathe-Influencer". Nach zwei Wochen wurden die privaten virtuellen Nachhilfestunden ein Angebot für die Masse. Mit der Motivation seiner Schüler betreibt er seit 2016 seinen eigenen öffentlichen YouTube-Kanal, auf dem regelmäßig Lern- und Erklärvideos zu Themen aus den Bereichen Physik, Deutsch, Allgemeinwissen, vor allem aber Mathematik erscheinen. Anfangs wollte Lehrerschmidt nicht in den Videos zu sehen sein. Der Kanal wurde mehrmals in der Presse besprochen, 2019 zählte er 300.000 Abonnenten.

Im Jahr 2020 erhielt sein YouTube-Kanal aufgrund der Schulschließungen während der COVID-19-Pandemie einen Aufschwung. Im April 2020 erhielt Schmidt den Titel "Mathe-Botschafter" der Stiftung Rechnen. Ebenfalls beantwortete Lehrerschmidt im April Fragen zum Thema Homeschooling in der ZDF-Sendung Heute+. Darauf folgend wurde er im August in der Kategorie "Best of Education & Coaching" zur Goldenen Kamera nominiert, zwei Monate später zur Goldenen Henne in der Kategorie "#Onlinestars".

Am 3. Juni 2021 erreichte sein Kanal die Marke von 1 Million Abonnenten.

Rezeption
Die Goldene Kamera setzt Lehrerschmidt nach Mathe by Daniel Jung auf Platz 2 einer Top-10-Liste. Im Homeschooling empfahlen beispielsweise der Mitteldeutsche Rundfunk, Südkurier und Der Spiegel Lehrerschmidt.

Working with roofer for industrial or property jobs is among the most difficult tasks. With a lot of specialists in the market, picking one who has the pertinent abilities, experience and is sincere to his work can be quite challenging. However, taking a couple of cautious steps while seeking a specialist, you can definitely work with one who is perfect for the task. Below are a couple of tips that will help you choose the most ideal roofing contractor for the task.
It is best to ask your friends and family or neighbors to suggest you the names of some good roofer. If they have formerly employed the services of a contractor for residential roofing, they would be able to better guide you with regard to their services and expenses. If no one has the ability to provide you with suggestions, get in touch with the regional contractors association and see if they can use some recommendations.
With a list of contractor names in your hand, you can try doing some research study to limit your choices. Go to the websites of these roofer and take a look at their portfolios and their previous tasks. Examine to see if they are licensed and associated with local building associations, their experience and the services they provide. Likewise search for their evaluations online and read exactly what other people need to say about them. This little research on your part will help you choose 2 or 3 names from the list.
Now with just a few names on your list, it would be easy to choose the one you wish to employ. But before that, call all the specialists and inquire to visit your premises, evaluate and price estimate a price for the roofing project. Select the very best roofing contractor that you find most appropriate for your task.
Prior to employing an industrial roofing contractor, inquire for a copy of their General Liability Insurance coverage. This will ensure that you and your premises are under defense in case any mishap takes place during the task. Also demand a certificate of the Workers Settlement Insurance coverage to safeguard your properties and yourself in case any of their workers gets hurt during the task.
You need to be really cautious before participating in a contract with a roofing contractor. Ensure that their company is listed in local service directories. Moreover, do not participate in a contract with contractors who only accept cash, require an advance of over 50% of the expense, deal discount rate on employing them instantly or pressurize you to sign the agreement.
Review the information of the agreement very carefully and see whether everything included in the project has actually been listed in the arrangement. From the dates of starting and completion to the cost, materials and labor included; everything must be covered in the contract in detail.
Keeping all these ideas in mind will help you work with a great roofer to get your job done. To employ the best contractor for your job, get in touch with the number given listed below.
They are workers who replace and repair works roofing system on business buildings and homes. Many are self-employed however there are some building and construction companies that will work with many roofing contractors to do major projects like setting up roofing systems on housing projects that have recently been constructed. They work year around. Some builders have become roofing contractors because of their understanding of home building. Before a roof agreement can begin getting clients, they must obtain a service license, which is a kind of legal authorization to operate a service in the county, state, or city. They will likewise need to go through a certification procedure. This involves hanging out working with a skilled roofing contractor to gain a good understanding of the work they do.
When a homeowner has damage to the roofing that was caused by fires, storms, water leaks, and other comparable event they will generally work with a roofer. The specialist will inspect the roof to figure out the degree of the damage. They will calculate the expense of purchasing the products that will be required to fix the damage and offer the homeowner the price quote of the repair expenses. Labor costs are consisted of in the price quote. Most house owners will get price quotes from a number of roofer prior to making their option as to which one to employ. Some specialists will reduce their quotes in order to win the agreement when they understand that there will be others bidding to do the job.
Roofing contractors are also hired by homeowners to set up a brand-new roofing system. A lot of contractors specialize in specific kinds of roof like tile or metal roofings. If it is a big roof task contractors will frequently hire sub-contractors to assist with the setup. In some locations, government entities will use cash rewards and tax refunds to house owners who install solar panels. Some roofer focus on setting up these panels. Those that concentrate on solar panel installation have formerly worked as electrical contractors. In some areas a contractor who installs photovoltaic panels have to be a licensed electrician or will need to work with a sub-contractor that is in order to finish the work.
Before accepting insure an industrial or residential property, some insurer may need that the owners pay to have a roofing examination first. The factor is that roofings are amongst the most expensive part of a home or structure to change. If the roofing system is in a state of disrepair, the insurance company might choose not to guarantee the home or structure. When a roofer carries out a roofing assessment, they will accept a flat fee for the work. The contractor will give the insurance company a roofing assessment report and if repairs need to be made the owner will have to make them before getting insurance coverage.
