Originally published in Marathi in 1989, this contemporary classic details the history of women's participation in B. R. Ambedkar's Dalit movement for the first time. Focusing on the involvement of women in various Dalit struggles since the early twentieth century, the book goes on to consider the social conditions of Dalit women's lives, daily religious practices and marital rules, the practice of ritual prostitution, and women's issues. Drawing on diverse sources, including periodicals, records of meetings, and personal correspondence, the latter half of the book is composed of interviews with Dalit women activists from the 1930s. These firsthand accounts from more than forty Dalit women make the book an invaluable resource for students of caste, gender, and politics in India. A rich store of material for historians of the Dalit movement and gender studies in India, We Also Made History remains a fundamental text of the modern women's movement.

A Farewell to the Flesh: It's pancake time!
Shrove Tuesday is the day before Ash Wednesday and is also known as Pancake Tuesday or Fat Tuesday (Mardi Gras in French). Celebrated with great fervour in many countries, including Ireland (Máirt Inide from Latin 'initium' – beginning of Lent), let's look at some interesting traditions surrounding the day.
Lent is a period of religious observance in the Christian calendar commemorating the 40 days Jesus spent fasting in the desert before beginning his public ministry. In Western Churches, Lent begins on Ash Wednesday and ends approximately six weeks later (depending on the Christian denomination) either on the evening of Maundy Thursday, or at sundown on Holy Saturday, when the Easter Vigil is celebrated.
The season immediately before Lent used to be called Shrovetide, a time for confessing sins ("shriving"). Today, Shrove Tuesday is celebrated the day before Lent starts on Ash Wednesday, but little else of the Lent-related Shrovetide survived the 16th-century English Reformation.
The specific custom of Christians in this part of the world eating pancakes on Shrove Tuesday dates to the 16th century. In those times, an absolute ban on the eating of meat and lacticina (food derived from animals and poultry like eggs, butter, milk and cheese) for the duration of Lent meant households were under pressure to use their full stock of meat and dairy by Shrove Tuesday.
For this reason, many Christian congregations began to observe the day by eating pancakes and hosting pancake breakfasts.
The Fight Between Carnival and Lent
The Fight Between Carnival and Lent by Pieter Bruegel the Elder (1559) oil-on-panel. Now located in Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna.
Peter Bruegel's painting The Fight between Carnival and Lent of 1559 purports to show how people at the time perceived the arrival of Lent (in some parts of the Netherlands at least). It depicts a rotund man carried on a barrel while brandishing a lance on which a fowl and meat are skewered. He is confronting a nun-like figure carrying a staff to which a platter with fish is attached. Behind the barrel come figures singing and dancing, while on the other side there are well-behaved children. In the background, on the right there is a church from which nuns are emerging, while on the left clients are enjoying themselves at an inn. The painting does show the contrast between people's enjoyment of life and what the church expected of them as the penitential season began.

The day before the Lenten season begins is often celebrated with carnivals and much fanfare among the general populace.
The word is said to come from the Late Latin expression carne levare, which means "remove meat"; a folk etymology derives it from carne vale, "farewell to meat". In either case, this signifies the approaching fast. The word carne may also be translated as flesh, producing "a farewell to the flesh", a phrase embraced by certain carnival celebrants to embolden the festival's carefree spirit. The etymology of the word Carnival thus points to a Christian origin of the celebratory period.
Skelliking

The term Skelliking might sound new to you. Yes, it refers to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Skellig Islands but how are they involved with Shrove Tuesday traditions in Ireland?
A few hundred years ago, religious diktats enforced the fact that weddings could not take place during the Lenten season. The tradition was that Roman Catholics did not get married during fasting days, Lent or Advent, so the period leading up to Shrovetide was a time of weddings. This became a time when additional pressure was ramped up on singletons. Single people in Ireland were regarded as having a lesser social status, accused of being a burden to society and not fulfilling their duties by procreating.
What became known as Skelliking Day (or Skeleton Day) was a feature of Shrove Tuesday in parts of the south, especially Cork and Kerry. Noisy crowds would lead a procession onto the streets of towns in the region, loudly insulting the still-single and telling them to "go to the Skelligs". The Skellig islands off the coast of Co. Kerry were said to still run under the old calendar, therefore Ash Wednesday would arrive later there, hence there would be still time for the single to go there to marry before Lent began.
According to an 1895 account: "All the marriageable young people, men, and women, in any parish, who are not gone over to the majority at Shrovetide, are said to be compelled to walk barefoot to the Skellig rocks, off the Kerry coast, on Shrove Tuesday night."
Skellig lists were printed and displayed publicly, listing those about to go on the "grand sea excursion" to the islands. They would include names of real people, and often veered into offensive territory.
Surprisingly, until very recently, in some towns of Co Cork, the girls' school would close about an hour before the boys' every Shrove Tuesday. This was done to give the girls a chance to get home safely. Why? Because the Skelling day traditions now evolved to where the boys had free license to chase the girls, corral them with ropes, tie them up and eventually douse them with water."
One Irish custom of the day was that any holly left over from Christmas should be saved for the fire to make the pancakes. As eating meat was to be banned for Lent, animals were slaughtered for a final Shrove Tuesday feast. More prosperous farmers ensured that any neighbours who were quite poor would get a portion.

Album Review: Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood – Christmas Together
There's something inherently difficult about reviewing holiday-themed music. One of the key considerations when reviewing music is its intended purpose, be that to create lively fun, evoke emotions, amuse, or enrage. The problem with holiday music is that its purpose is seemingly to be novel, and whilst it may succeed at that particular goal, that doesn't necessarily make it enjoyable to listen to, which is another important metric. It typically (admittedly not always) lacks both depth, and visceral enjoyability, which tends to leave holiday music lacking a sense of purpose. It can be fun, but fleetingly, and often feels like a stopgap or cash-grab release for musicians. This makes it curious that Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood, two giants in the country music scene who have been teasing a collaborative album for years, have chosen to finally unveil their much-vaunted collaboration in the form of a Christmas album.
Even more confounding is that Christmas Together sells itself as an album of duets, but it barely meets that criteria. It certainly contains duets, but the duo sing separately on many of the album's tracks. Even then, the duets are some of the album's least distinctive tracks. Marshmallow World feels like a knockoff Disney song, with unbearably twee instrumentation of "Christmassy" stylings, including such things as jingling bells, squashed horns, and vibrato strings. Baby, It's Cold Outside fares better, simply by virtue of it being a standard, and thanks to Yearwood's distinctive, emotional vocal performance.
The solo tracks are similarly inconsistent. Brooks puts in solid work on Merry Christmas Means I Love You, which evokes 70's British pop music, but falters on the slight, boring Ugly Christmas Sweater. Yearwood makes the mistake of trying to make Christmas sexy on Santa Baby, which is a viscerally uncomfortable listen, but then she sings magnificently on the easy standout Hard Candy Christmas (a Dolly Parton cover). Christmas Together doesn't feel so much like an album, and more like a collection of disjointed, occasionally fun, occasionally cringeworthy songs around a similar theme. Whilst it's passably entertaining, one can't help but with Brooks and Yearwood had come up with something more substantial for their collaborative debut.

Cauliflower mosaic virus: A 420 subunit (T = 7), multilayer structure
R. H. Cheng, N. H. Olson, T. S. Baker
The structures of the Cabb-B and CM 1841 strains of cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) have been solved to about 3 nm resolution from unstained, frozen-hydrated samples that were examined with low-irradiation cryo-electron microscopy and three-dimensional image reconstruction procedures. CaMV is highly susceptible to distortions. Spherical particles, with a maximum diameter of 53.8 nm, are composed of three concentric layers (I-III) of solvent-excluded density that surround a large, solvent-filled cavity (∼ 27 nm dia.). The outermost layer (I) contains 72 capsomeric morphological units, with 12 pentavalent pentamers and 60 hexavalent hexamers for a total of 420 subunits (37-42 kDa each) arranged with T = 7 icosahedral symmetry. CaMV is the first example of a T = 7 virus that obeys the rules of stoichiometry proposed for isometric viruses by Caspar and Klug (1962, Cold Spring Harb. Symp. Quant. Biol. 27, 1-24), although the hexameric capsomers exhibit marked departure from the regular sixfold symmetry expected for a structure in which the capsid protein subunits are quasi-equivalently related. The double-stranded DNA genome is distributed in layers II and III along with a portion of the viral protein. The CaMV reconstructions are consistent with the model based on neutron diffraction studies (Kruse et al., 1987, Virology 159, 166-168) and, together, these structural models are discussed in relation to a replication-assembly model (Hull et al., 1987, J. Cell Sci. (Suppl.) 7, 213-229). Remarkable agreement between the reconstructions of CaMV Cabb-B and CM 1841 suggests that other strains of CaMV adopt the same basic structure.

The intrinsic qualities of the Cintec™ fire resistant anchor are well documented through years of extensive testing. In-house research by destructive testing has produced a wealth of information for its shear and tensile capabilities. A booklet of this data is available on request. An independent study carried out by Building Research Establishment involved accelerated age testing. This simulated a forty year aging cycle and confirmed the anchors long term performance. The system was also subjected to a destructive fire test, after two hours at 1200°C the anchor still functioned normally.
Running parallel to the anchor research are studies for its engineering applications and the effects upon the structures in which it is installed. Independent analysis has involved the destruction of masonry walls in a series of Shaking Table Tests carried out by the University of Southampton. The final report concluded that the point of failure was dependent upon the strength of the original masonry but in all cases the introduction of lateral restraints in the form of Cintec™ stitching anchors increased the failure load by at least a factor of two. Such research is proving invaluable for projects in zones susceptible to earthquakes. Future applications are limited only by one's imagination. A European Commission grant is enabling research into a 'Smart Anchor' capable of detecting movement within a structure as well as the moisture content of the parent material. Other avenues of exploration include multi-bar anchors, safety anchors and even a human bone anchor.
Perhaps the most spectacular analysis so far was conducted at TRL (the Transport Research Laboratory). It involved the test to destruction of a three ring brick masonry arch, built to simulate those often found along the trunk roads of the UK. After the insertion of Cintec™ anchors its load bearing capacity was more than doubled compared to a pervious test conducted on an identical but un-strengthened bridge. This research heralded the creation of Archtec. The work has inevitably had positive repercussions not only for bridges but for tunnels, vaulted ceilings and dams. These are promising lines of study now backed by European funding under the title of the Defiant Project.

U-Haul Self-Storage Affiliate Network Offers Big Advantages
The U-Haul Self-Storage Affiliate Network (USSAN) can give independent self-storage owners a leg up in what can be a competitive environment.
USSAN provides WebSelfStorage, a fully integrated management software for the independent self-storage owner. From the user-friendly software interface to generating more income, self-storage owners have many reasons to be thankful for this program.
Beechgrove Self Storage
For John Huffman, owner of Beechgrove Self Storage and U-Haul Dealership in Independence, Ky., the biggest advantage to being a part of the USSAN has been the increased business.
Huffman opened Beechgrove in 1998. After joining U-Haul as a dealer in 2001, he became a U-Haul Self-Storage Affiliate in 2006. Joining the USSAN has given his business an edge over competition in the area. The customer demand at Beechgrove and has allowed him to launch a second location: Buttermilk Pike Self Storage.
"U-Haul is constantly sending customers in my direction," Huffman explained. "Being a part of the affiliate network helps by creating awareness of my business."
Huffman encourages any owners of storage locations who are unsure about joining the USSAN to think about the different possibilities that it will present.
"Anyone who is on the fence about this should realize that storage and U-Haul truck sharing go hand in hand," Huffman said. "When someone rents a storage unit from you, there's a good chance they're going to need to share a truck with you, too."
Mountain Island Storage
Jill Puckett used USSAN to help launch Mountain Island Storage and U-Haul Dealership in Charlotte, N.C.
"I never had previous experience with storage software," Puckett said. "We were going to be a U-Haul dealer from day one and the WebSelfStorage software was a natural fit, especially with the pricing offered to U-Haul dealers. I like the fact that it is a one-stop shop where we can manage everything."
Puckett noted that the software is user friendly and gives business owners a good overview of their storage units.
"I like the site map and how easy it is to take a reservation, take a payment and view a contract from the tab," she added. "For instance, it gives information on occupancy, vacancy and delinquent accounts, which provides a quick snapshot of my business."
KP Management
Kristine Partlow, owner of KP Management and U-Haul Dealership in Gillette, Wyo., notes that USSAN benefits her customers, too.
"Customers are able to reserve their own storage units and pay their bill online," Partlow said. "I also enjoy the ease of credit card processing through WebSelfStorage. I feel that the services offered through this program are worth as much as the software."
The coal, oil and natural gas industries are central in Gillette. That means that many jobs in town are temporary, and storage units carry a heightened importance. The USSAN allows Partlow to keep up with the competition.
"Storage units and U-Haul are a big part of the temporary-work world and I know that having them paired together better serves our customers," Partlow noted. "The USSAN has helped keep our occupancy higher. My business has increased greatly and benefited a lot from the program.

From Tondaligan beach in Pangasinan, we moved up north to Baguio through the scenic Kennon Road. My first and last trip via this famed zigzag road was in 2008 together with fellow production staff of "Ikaw ang Lahat Sa Akin" and the beautiful Bea Alonzo. I was excited to see Kennon Road once again because of numerous falls I saw in 2008 but got a bit upset when I only saw a few. Geez, what happened? Landslides perhaps?
We parked inside a vacation house, beside Eagle Crest's entrance and met the man of the hour, Tito Ving. I was intimidated at first but the fact that I went along with my uncle and the owner's sisters, I eventually became more comfortable. Hence, he seemed to be one down-to-earth businessman. After a short hi's and hello's, we all made our way to the subdivision. The property from what I heard is the biggest subdivision in Baguio. The particular area we visited is its Phase 2 were 21 townhouse units are currently for sale.
It's difficult nowadays to own a property in Baguio, much less to build a house in a prime location. Eagle Crest Villa is situated right in front of the new 6 hectare Saint Louis University - Bakakeng Campus. A great opportunity I must say in case you decide to open and rent your house to college students. My favorite is the 3 storey townhouse unit which has 8 bedrooms. The floor plan gave me an idea when I can finally build my first tourist inn. It also has a good mountain view from the back window. These properties here are definitely good investment opportunities. To inquire about these townhouses, you may call John 'Nono' Suedad at +639192143807 or (02)7038279.
After the townhouse tripping, Tito Ving treated us to a wonderful lunch at Star Cafe located along Session Road. Memories of the 2011 Panagbenga Grand Float Parade came flashing in. The restaurant is probably the oldest in Baguio, opening its doors since 1940 and serves Chinese cuisine. The scent of cinnamon as you enter the building is an added attraction. Yup, they have baked goodies too!
If you have a private car, it's highly recommended to go vegetable shopping in Baguio's public market. Here you'll find the freshest and cheapest healthy green produce from the Cordillera region. We bought sacks of veggies on our way home.
Our quick day trip to the city of pines may have gone by too fast. But it's great to refresh and smell the cool Baguio air once in a while. My anticipated rainshowers were a no show and it's less cooler than when I was there in February.

Q: Groovy script cannot import java code The problem I have is larger, but I will simplify the concept that is failing.
I am working on Ubuntu.
Here is my directory structure:
~/mydirectory
--/groovy
--/myjavafiles
I have a script, script.groovy, that lives inside ~/mydirectory/groovy and a java file called Hello.java that lives inside ~/mydirectory/myjavafiles. script.groovy has the following inside:
#!/usr/bin/env groovy

package groovy;
import myjavafiles.Hello;

println("hello");

Hello.java has this:
package myjavafiles;
public class Hello {
   public Hello() {
       System.out.println("hello");
   }
}

I have tried running:
$./script.groovy

aswell as
$groovy script.groovy

But I only get an error, "unable to find class".
Here are the steps I have taken to fix this error:
i. set CLASSPATH = ~/mydirectory, that didn't work.
ii. used
$jar cf myjavafiles.jar myjavafiles

and placed myjavafiles.jar in ~/.groovy/lib, that didn't work.
iii. As mentioned here, I tried to modify groovy.script as follows:
#!/bin/bash
//usr/bin/env groovy
package groovy;
import myjavafiles.Hello;

println("hello");

That also did not work.
Other, maybe relevant
If it's any help, I'm using Ubuntu, Java 7 and Groovy 2.1.5
GROOVY_HOME=/opt/groovy/groovy-2.1.5/
and $GROOVY_HOME/bin is in my PATH
I would greatly appreciate any help.

A: Change script.groovy to:
package groovy
import myjavafiles.Hello

println "hello"

Compile the java code with:
javac myjavafiles/Hello.java

Then run
groovy groovy/script.groovy

It is a beautiful summers day over the field that the harvest mice call home. But unfortunately, this cannot last; storm clouds are gathering, bringing with it the threat of flash floods when the river rises. Now Boaz and his pet caterpillar, Chrys, are joined by his friends as they attempt to follow the example of a wise man who built his house upon a rock. At the same time, a local mole named Montague remains stubbornly convinced that there's no danger. Can a way be found to secure Boaz's hollow log home? Will Montague's foolishness land him in hot water?

K-12 Schools Burlington
2019 Best Public Schools in BurlingtonAbout this List
Explore the best public schools serving your area based on rigorous analysis of key statistics and millions of reviews from students and parents using data from the U.S. Department of Education. Read more on how this ranking was calculated.
Cooperstown Junior/Senior High School
Cooperstown Central School District, NY
#312 Best Public High Schools in New York
Alum: Cooperstown was ok. Some of the teachers a very knowledgeable, others not so much. The math and science departments are the best, English is probably next but they have a few new teachers who just need experience. History is mediocre at best, some teachers are really good, but others give way to much of their own opinion as fact. I never took much enough foreign language, music or art to comment on them. My favorite classes were in tech, robotics and such.
Cooperstown Elementary School
#949 Best Public Elementary Schools in New York
Mount Markham Senior High School
Mount Markham Central School District, NY
Senior: At this school, I was pushed to reach my full potential. Its atmosphere allows everyone to feel welcome. Amazing guidance counselor
The Speyer Legacy School
Parent: Our family has been at Speyer since Kindergarten; our child is about to enter eighth grade. We have been constantly impressed by the teachers (especially in the Humanities), and by Speyer's dedication to challenge students to grow intellectually and ethically. Our child has learned how to write well, to analyze topics critically and professionally, and to think about issues from both a philosophical and practical viewpoint. Further, Speyer's emphasis on community building through group work and field trips allows students to see beyond the four walls of the school to become global citizens. Perhaps what we love most about Speyer, though, is that our child can try anything: soccer, track, play writing, poetry, math…. Speyer has fostered all of our child's interests, and as a result, we have watched this child transform from a teeny 5-year old into a confidant, smart, well-spoken teen who is excited about learning and loves going to school.
Edmeston Central School
Edmeston Central School District, NY
Junior: Overall I enjoy Edmeston because of the dynamics that school offers and the great involvement from Pre-K to Senior Year, with administration, teachers, and parents. Everyone is nice and is there for you and being a small school the teachers are really there for you and there to help you. It is all very nice!

Q: Proving that the volume of a pyramid is one-third that of its corresponding prism. Is there any way to prove that for any isosceles triangle, the volume of a solid created when that triangle is projected to a point determining the height above the angle opposite the hypotenuse is one third of the volume of a triangular prism of the same height and base shape?

Here's a sketch. The projected solid can be thought of as one quarter of a square pyramid when N is 90 degrees. Is there a way to prove that the projected solid's volume is one third that of the triangular prism of same height and base values for any value of N?
Both intuitive and purely mathematical proofs are acceptable.

A: This holds also for non-isosceles triangles. The volume of a pyramid is one third of the product between the area of the base and the length of the relative height.
Just use Cavalieri's principle. If the area of the base is $B$, the area of the section parallel to the base at height $h_0$ is proportional to $(h-h_0)^2$, hence the result follows from:
$$\int_{0}^{1} x^2\,dx = \frac{1}{3}.$$

A: The three dimensional figure you are referring to is called a tetrahedron.  The volume is $V= \frac{1}{3}Ah$ where A is the area of the base and h is the height of the tetrahedron. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedron#General_properties

Reiki Light gives the reader an overview of Reiki healing from the Northern European point of view, from the Japanese point of view, and takes excerpts from various Buddhist teachings, some of which have been forbidden by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.
The first section of the book discusses Reiki Healing from a western point of view. Hernesson states that energetic healing is natural and anyone can learn how to use it. He talks about the use of subtle energies to promote healing, not just for individuals but for the entire planet. In fact, planetary healing is Hernesson's specialty, which I quite admire. The author also discusses and how Reiki is a spiritual path and not merely a form of healing energy.
The Buddhist teachings in the middle of the book are a confusing hodgepodge of various Buddhist texts intermixed with Native American and Japanese Shinto teachings, as well as with New Kadampa discourses which I am explicitly forbidden to view.
Most of the texts are taken from New Kadampa sources which Hernesson acknowledges in the back of the book, including providing sources for picking up NKT texts, which troubled me greatly, as HH the 14th Dalai Lama has forbidden utilizing the teachings from the New Kadampa Tradition, or participating in their cult. The author does bring this up as well as mentions the creature the NKT worships. When I saw that I had to put the book down and do a cleansing puja..
Reiki light does have good information in regards to healing techniques, both on an individual as well as a planetary scale. I don't recommend the rest as it has to do with a tradition I am forbidden to discuss. Your mileage, however, may vary.


The most important thing about FenCon, of course, was the debut of The Nearly Notorious Nun. I had ordered 20 copies, and came home with nine, I think. That includes one trade and one to a beta-reader, but still, not too shabby.
But there is one problem…I haven't been able to think of a really great title for this one. Which of the choices below do you like better? Or add one of your own. Be advised that I am TRYING, at least for now, to avoid using the same initial letter again, so M, N, I, and A words are out. There is also a pattern to the way the titles are constructed Adverb, Adjective, Noun. So, if you want to propose your own title, it must fit those parameters.
I can't figure out a good way to do a poll…anyone have a favored plugin that will add a poll to a post?
Let's dialog! I really do need your help in this decision.

I also like No 2 best.
In the one poll that I've done so far on my blog, I've used the in-built polling tool that WordPress provides. It seemed to work well for me, but then, I didn't have thousands (or even hundreds) of responses.

An ongoing struggle between the philosophy of "Husseiniyat" and syndrome of "Yazeediyat".. till the time when humanity in general will come to the conclusion, that "Husseiniyat" is the only way of life that can provide sustainable global peace and security. The struggle between Hussein (AS) and Yazeed is an international phenomenon. It is not restricted to Muslims only. Sooner or later other nations of the world will also realize that the cause for which they are struggling now ie global peace and social justice, the same cause was fought for by Hussein (AS) 14 centuries ago.
It may not be surprising to see in near future those nations owing Hussein (AS) as their role model. That will be the day when the dawn of peace, tranquility, justice and prosperity will shine on the horizon of this war-torn planet.

The Quranic way of life is a life of action and dynamism. Quran condemns a life of isolation, stagnation and solitude. It is only through dynamism that human society progresses and attains its objective of peace and prosperity in this world and eternal blessings in life hereinafter. During the early period of Islam there was no concept of monasteries. Mysticism is an alien concept and infiltrated in Islam at very late stage. It is binding on Muslims to work hard and excel in every field of knowledge, education, research, science, economics, administration, diplomacy and statecraft. Islam is essentially a 'Deen' of 'Amal' and lays lot of stress on action. Any society that abstains from action and dynamism will eventually die its own death.
Hazrat Imam Hussein (A.S) had inherited a very exalted spiritual position. He is son of Hazrat Ali (A.S) who is 'Baab ul Ilm' (the door of knowledge) and Hazar Fatima (R.A) who is the 'Syeda' of all women in the world and in 'Jannah', and he is grandson of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) whose personality is second to Allah only in this universe. Had he wanted to, he could have made Madina as his spiritual base and the Muslims from the whole world would have pledged their allegiance to him as a Saint. But Hussein (A.S) was aware of the basic teachings of Islam and knew what Islam wants from its followers. He knew that if the Muslim Society of his time was to be purged from the ills, he must rise and stand up against the forces of exploitation and tyranny. He therefore proceeded to Karbala, with a total disregard to safety, comfort of his person and that of his family.
The 'Yazeedi' forces of today have made the life of innocent people miserable. They have usurped all the resources and have deprived the poor people from bread, water, health, education, jobs and safety of their lives. Karbala gives us a clear message that if the poor people want to get their basic rights, they must rise and stand up against these tyrannic forces without any fear, as Hussein (A.S) did 14 centuries back. This is the only way to break this lethal inertia that is taking our society to devastation with every passing day.

The message of Karbala is the message of ultimate sacrifice and universal peace. Durable peace cannot be ensured without sacrifice. The enemies of peace have many weapons to use against humanity. Apart from aggression, tyranny and killings through blatant use of arms and ammunition, they also use the weapons of wealth, greed, hate, lust for power and exploitation. Man by nature is prone to be influenced and affected by such attractions. This weakness of human nature is very skillfully exploited by the enemies of peace to serve their own interests. Those who fall prey to them are used as tools of war, violence and anarchy in the world.
The only formidable obstacle in the way of enemies of peace is the strength of character of men who confront them. When a person is strong in character he can parry all sorts of invitations to lusts. A man of strong character can never bend and bow before the threats and is always ready to sacrifice even the most precious of his assets.
Hazrat Imam Hussein (A.S) displayed the strength of his character in the battlefield of Karbala. Had he desired so, he could have got the best luxuries of life from the rulers and powerful elite of that time. But he stood firmly on the golden principles of Islam and offered the biggest sacrifice ever in the history of mankind.
Karbala gives a clear message to people, to come out of the shackles of lust for power, wealth, properties, business empires, bank balances and nepotism, if they want a durable peace in human society.

إِنَّ اللَّـهَ يَأْمُرُ‌كُمْ أَن تُؤَدُّوا الْأَمَانَاتِ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهَا وَإِذَا حَكَمْتُم بَيْنَ النَّاسِ أَن تَحْكُمُوا بِالْعَدْلِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّـهَ نِعِمَّا يَعِظُكُم بِهِ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّـهَ كَانَ سَمِيعًا بَصِيرً‌ا" No doubt Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due, and when you rule among the people, rule with justice. Excellent is that which Allah instructs you. No doubt Allah hears and sees (everything)."This Aya sets the foundation of a political system to be established in an Islamic state. People are the custodians of the sovereignty given to them as a sacred trust and they are constrained by Allah to return this trust to persons who are capable to hold this trust. Those persons (trustees) will then run the affairs of the state with justice, in accordance with the principles of Quran and Sunnah. In earlier days of Islam (during the tenure of Four Caliphs), people used to transfer this trust to the Caliphs through pledge (بیت). In today's world of knowledge, enlightenment, awareness and democracy, this exercise can be done through voting, referendum, opinion polls or whatever system is deemed appropriate.
The relevant Articles of the Constitution of Pakistan as read in conjunction with the above mentioned command of Allah makes the social contract between the people of Pakistan and the State of Pakistan very clear. Both have their specific duties to perform and obligations to discharge.
Participating in electoral process (or any such activity that leads to transfer of sovereignty to the state through chosen persons) and casting vote in favor of persons who are 'Trustworthy' and 'Truthful' is compulsory as per Quran. Those who abstain from this process on any pretext will be willfully withholding الْأَمَانَاتِ against the explicit command of Allah. The people of Pakistan from all strata of society should be educated on these lines. This is the only way to get rid of the exploiters and looters from coming to power.

It most likely comes as a shock to anyone beneath 30 that there was laptop video games with out graphics. At one time, computer shows had been strictly text-based mostly; the only photos they could produce were ASCII art, pictures composed of strategically placed letters, numbers, and particular characters. It was an entire totally different world then, and LAPTOP video games needed to make do with very restricted assets. Interactive fiction games were born because of this. For individuals who are streaming excessive-decision audio knowledge, I strongly advocate utilizing wired ethernet if at all doable. Yes, WiFi can do the job but reliability may be a problem if one runs into interference. That is especially true if the gadget (like the Raspberry Pi three's built-in transmitter) has a weak WiFi part. There are few distractions for an audiophile worse than the music instantly stopping to rebuffer in the course of an in any other case pleasant listening session. Years in the past, I discovered that powerline network units like the cheap TP-Link AV500 or updated AV1000 offered a more secure connection than over-the-air. High quality of transmission with these adaptors will be affected by the home power line wiring and across fuse bins.
All in all, the Chuwi VX3 have gotten very good show, good performance and the latest working system, it however has bought a median battery life, which is something that any prospective purchaser, must remember. You may ask. Sure, Lenovo fashions up from Y50 – Y700 had heating problems earlier. This was on account of an incompatible graphics driver for Windows eight.1 and Home windows 10. When customers turned off the NVIDIA graphics card and used the in-home Intel HD Graphics, the issue would go away.

The local Floyd Novice Radio Society W4FCV and the Amateur Radio Club from Virginia Tech K4KDJ assisted this 2014 JOTA. Processors constructed from about 2007 on have some great longevity and whereas there are exceptions, usually talking, you'll be able to take pleasure in a great 6-7 years out of them.
Non-volatile reminiscence is computer reminiscence that can retain the stored info even when not powered. Thanks for such an in depth take a look at early laptop training. I would add that children ought to learn about a digital footprint and how they don't need to simply be wary of strangers but additionally of how they can damage their own reputations by sharing issues that they could not have the ability to erase.
Really things boil down to treating laptop science teachers with trust and respect in addition to giving them the instruments to do their job higher. For example, do computer science lecturers have administrative privileges on the computers in their lab? If not, why not? One would expect that a properly prepared CS instructor ought to have the ability to safely handle that duty. The truth is it is often obligatory for them to experiment with new tools and teaching methods. Retaining administrative entry from them reveals a lack of respect and trust. That may make anyone really feel less valued.

Q: Running TOR on Centos 6 I'm the operator of the XMPP server on darkness.su.The server runs on Centos 6.
I installed TOR and configured it to provide a hidden service access to the server.It was working fine at first,but ever since an update a few months ago it started giving me these errors:
    799  May 25 14:19:37.060 [warn] Permissions on directory /var/lib/tor/hidden_service are too permissive.
  800  May 25 14:19:37.060 [warn] Failed to parse/validate config: Failed to configure rendezvous options. See logs for details.
  801  May 25 14:19:37.060 [err] Reading config failed--see warnings above.

I tried to check the logs,but I can't find them,and setting one doesn't seem to work.I've tried removing TOR and wiping all its folder,then reinstalling it.Same thing.
I'm installing through yum from TOR Project's repository.
With chmod 700 on the hidden service directory(owned by TOR):
Jul 24 21:39:05.573 [warn] Directory /var/lib/tor/hidden_service/ cannot be read: Permission denied
Jul 24 21:39:05.573 [warn] Failed to parse/validate config: Failed to configure rendezvous options. See logs for details.
Jul 24 21:39:05.573 [err] Reading config failed--see warnings above

After changing directory owner to root:
Jul 24 22:11:36.236 [warn] /var/lib/tor/hidden_service/ is not owned by this user (_tor, 496) but by root (0). Perhaps you are running Tor as the wrong user?
Jul 24 22:11:36.236 [warn] Failed to parse/validate config: Failed to configure rendezvous options. See logs for details.
Jul 24 22:11:36.236 [err] Reading config failed--see warnings above.

A: You need to check three things:

*

*The file ownership should be correct.
If you use Tor from torproject.org, this should be _tor. If you use Tor from EPEL or Fedora, this should be toranon.
chown -R _tor:_tor /var/lib/tor

or
chown -R toranon:toranon /var/lib/tor

*The permissions should be correct.
The hidden service directory must be readable only by the Tor user.
find /var/lib/tor/hidden_service -type d | xargs chmod u+rwx,go=
find /var/lib/tor/hidden_service -type f | xargs chmod u+rw,go=

*SELinux contexts must be set correctly. In recent releases of RHEL/CentOS, Tor has an SELinux policy applied to it.
To fix broken SELinux labels:
restorecon -r -v /var/lib/tor

A: Your issue is likely with SELinux. No, I'm not going to say to set it to permissive (I hate that default answer).  It has to do with the subdirectory and the context in which the init.d script is executing (I think). You might be able to fix this by creating a real systemd entry, not 100% sure.
I had this issue, and I chose the simple solution which works since I only have 1 hidden service. Not sure if this causes a problem with multiples or not (I suspect it might). Alternatively, you can spend time debugging the context issue.  That would be the best solution, but if you only have one service, you could just:
Change:
/var/lib/tor/hidden_service/

to:
/var/lib/tor/

and be done.

Q: QSS style file vs Designer style I'm using a png as a QPushButton background. Style Sheet code:
QPushButton
{
    border: none;
    width: 80px;
    height: 80px;
    background-color: transparent;
    border-image: url(":/icons/GitHub-Mark-Light.png");
}

QPushButton:hover
{
    border-image: url(":/icons/GitHub-Mark-Light-Hover.png");
}

QPushButton:pressed
{
    border-image: url(":/icons/GitHub-Mark-Light.png");
}

If I set this code in Qt Designer then the png background is transparent where it needs to be.
But when I set the same code in my CSS file png transparency is being lost.
How do I fix this and use my png through CSS?

A: I don't know why the style is applied differently in the case of Qt Designer or CSS file, but apparently Qt Designer somehow overrides the parent style (the style of the parent window) in a special way. I solved the problem by transferring the style of the parent window to the CSS file too.

Swiss Cloud 9 Begins Importing Cannabis From United States
By Marguerite Arnold
For all the success of the cannabis market in the United States, there are two big issues that still confound the industry because of a lack of federal reform. The first, of course, is national recognition of an industry that still struggles with banking, insurance and selling products across state lines. The other is international trade.
However, it appears that one Colorado-based company, United Cannabis, has now successfully begun to navigate the complex regulatory and standards puzzle, and further, has set up trade and import agreements in both France and Switzerland. Even more interesting? It managed to do the same before the passage of the Farm Bill.
At present they are exporting to Europe from Florida – but the fact that they are exporting in the European direction at all is a feat still unmatched by many other American firms all looking to do the same thing.
Francis Scanlan, founder of Cloud 9 Switzerland
In Switzerland, they are also partnering with an equally intriguing firm called Cloud 9 Switzerland. We sat down with Francis Scanlan, founder of Cloud 9 Switzerland, to talk about what they are doing and how they are doing it- and from the European perspective.
The First Compliant Swiss Chocolate Maker
Cloud 9 is a start-up that is going head to head with the larger Canadian firms in innovative ways and in several directions. That includes the creation of food and beverage products. It also includes pharmaceuticals.
As of January 22, 2019, Cloud 9 also received approval from Swiss authorities to proceed with production of what will be, as Scanlan describes it, "the first EU-compliant hemp chocolate bar." The hemp they are using contains a full spectrum hemp extract, which does not fall under the rubric of a so-called "novel food" because hemp has been a product in the consumer market here for a long time.
The product will be on Italian shelves as of the end of Q1 this year. Beyond the regulatory approvals necessary to get to market, it also took him about a year to find and convince a chocolate manufacturer in Switzerland to work with him.
Scanlan describes his year and a half old firm as the "value added" between suppliers, manufacturers and distributors. With a background in the corporate food and beverage industry including a stint at Nestlé, he and his team create the formulations and commercialize new products. And they keep a sharp eye on the regulatory bottom line in Europe.
Cloud 9's corporate mission, Scanlan says, is to improve the quality of life and wellness of their customers. "We are not in the opportunistic marketing business" he says. "We want to create products that really benefit people. Our motto has always been Win-Win for both our partners and consumers."
Bringing A Glaucoma Drug To The EU Market
However do not mistake Cloud 9 or even Scanlan himself as a kind of cannabis Willy Wonka one hit wonder. Or a firm that is solely operating in the wellness space. They are also now working to bring a Glaucoma drug into the EU where they will begin with medical trials to start the approval process. That said, Scanlan is confident about the success of this product as well. "It has a great dossier in its home country," he says. "And that has also already caught the interest of doctors in Italy and Switzerland."
Beyond that, there are other plans in the works, including the introduction of a transdermal patch that delivers cannabinoids through the skin. "The great thing about this kind of approach," Scanlan says, "is that it allows people to get over their fear of orally ingested drugs. They don't like the effect, they can just take it off." He also noted that the patch uses a patented technology that allows a far more efficient delivery mechanism, which creates a time-delayed medication approach and allows for a 90% transfer of cannabinoids.
In other words, this small, privately funded start-up, using innovative approaches to a market Scanlan knows well, is absolutely in the ring and going to market. And further doing so with a European mindset and operating philosophy that incorporates not only hemp exported from the American hemisphere, but is mixed with a large dollop of good old "American" entrepreneurial gusto and inclinations.

Q: Write multiple quantifier statement as psuedocode I want to write an algorithm for determining the truth value of:
"for all $x \in D$, $\exists y \in E$ such that $x$ and $y$ satisfy $P(x,y)$"
and
"$\exists x \in D$ such that $\forall y \in E$, $x$ and $y$ satisfy $P(x,y)$"
in pseudo-code, for generic D, E, P(x,y), for the benefit of computer science students' understanding.

A: You first need an interpretation of the predicates $D$, $E$ and $P$ in some structure $\mathcal{M}$.
My answer assumes that :

*

*$\mathcal{M}$ is finite, and its support represented by an (informatic) enumerable $M$

*The predicates $D,E,P$ are represented by boolean-valued functions.

The function satisfies_formula1 bellow will return True if the formula $\forall x \in D, \ \exists y \in E, \ P(x,y)$ holds, false otherwise. The function satisfies_formula2 does the same for the formula $\exists x \in D, \ \forall y \in E, \ P(x,y)$.
def satisfies_formula1():
    for x in M:
        if D(x):
            found_y = False  #this answers "did we find y in E such that P(x,y) holds?"
            for y in M:
                if E(y) and P(x,y):
                    found_y = True
            if not found_y:
                return False
    return True

def satisfies_formula2():
    for x in M:
        if D(x):
            all_y_ok = True  #innocent untill proven guilty
            for y in M:
                if E(y) and not P(x,y):
                    all_y_ok = False
            if all_y_ok:
                return True

Al Noor Hospitals Eyes Dubai Acquisitions After Insurance Law
Under the law, Dubai will require its residents and visitors to have compulsory health insurance.
Al Noor Hospitals Group, which raised 221 million pounds ($362 million) in a London share sale in June, is considering expanding in Dubai after the emirate announced plans to make health insurance mandatory.
Compulsory insurance "makes that market even more attractive than it was," chief strategy officer Sami Alom said in an interview yesterday in Abu Dhabi, where the group is based. "We will be focusing our efforts on Dubai."
The expansion will be "most likely through acquisitions," he said, declining to provide details. Al Noor Hospitals said in October it had acquired 75 per cent of Manchester Clinic in Dubai.
Dubai, the second-biggest sheikhdom in the United Arab Emirates after Abu Dhabi, will require its residents and visitors to have compulsory health insurance from their employers or sponsors. The emirate's government endorsed its medical care law, according to U.A.E's official news agency. Abu Dhabi already has compulsory health insurance.
Al Noor Hospitals doesn't need to borrow to finance possible acquisitions, Alom said.
"We're also keeping our eyes open for the longer term and looking outside the UAE to the" rest of the Gulf Cooperation Council, he said, referring to the six-nation bloc that also includes Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Oman. The group opened a medical center in Oman in June and sees "a lot of opportunities there," he said.
