Famous for those lovable Angry Birds, Rovio has filled this match-three puzzler with its own cast of adorable creatures. In Nibblers, you defeat little lizards (and some giant bosses) by matching nearby fruit, injecting a fun battle mechanic into every level. Special attackers and environmental obstacles spice up the family-friendly action, and everything looks gorgeous—from the characters to the lush backdrops.
Fruit nibblers is the older equivalent of the new angry birds match. However it does not have much interactive elements and isn't as interesting as AB match. Just a basic match game with hundreds of levels, nothing else. There is a few glitches that Rovio never fixed despite making updates for it. All I can say is that Rovio put this game on the back burner and barely ever touches it. Now AB match is the newest matching game and it is more interactive as well. It's much more fun than nibblers in my opinion. Despite nibblers have gorgeous art and calm soothing music to calm your nerves after losing every single time on that one level, there is still some things that needs to be worked on. Not only that, but there needs to be more fun features in nibblers that make it unique that any other matching game. Since AB match, I don't play nibblers anymore there's nothing new to nibblers, it gets old fast. It was fun while it lasted.
My sister convinced me to download this "stupid game" as I was first calling it but then I couldn't stop playing it! I love it, on the go, in the house, bored, not bored just wanna play it!
I wrote this about a year ago and never submitted it! What I noticed after all this time is there is no way for you to gain gold coins unless you pay for them! Why is it that we can't share /give coins to one another or gain them after beating a board or even a whole board? I've had 4 coins left from however many we start with for the longest! Every time I'm presented with "playing on" for 9 coins I can never do so because I still have 4 coins for a whole year! PLEASE do something about this because that is crazy. We should be able to play and earn coins as well as nibblers!

MassINC and Boston NPR affiliate WBUR to continue collaboration on political polls through June 2014
Updated: Mar. 24, 2019, 5:01 p.m. | Published: Aug. 27, 2013, 6:45 p.m.
WBUR and the MassINC Polling Group began collaborating in 2011, with a poll showing Elizabeth Warren within single digits of Scott Brown in the race for US Senate.
By MassLive.com Staff
National Public Radio affiliate WBUR and the MassINC Polling Group announced Tuesday that they have extended their relationship for political polling in Massachusetts through June 2014.
"WBUR is delighted to continue our successful partnership with The MassINC Polling Group for the coming year," said Charlie Kravetz, general manager of WBUR. "This service to the community provides exceptionally high quality, non-partisan polling on political races and fundamental issues that face Massachusetts and the nation.
"As we cover the stories that shape our communities, trusted polls give us a powerful snapshot in time that helps us all understand the shifting nature of our collective views on important elections and our relationship with our government. We could not work with a better pollster than Steve Koczela and The MassINC Polling Group. Time and again, Steve and his team have proven to be accurate and insightful."
The announcement comes as Massachusetts residents begin to eye the 2014 gubernatorial and U.S. Senate contests and Boston residents prepare to elect a new mayor.
"We are thrilled to continue our work with WBUR," said Steve Koczela, president of The MassINC Polling Group. "Their commitment to serious-minded journalism and in-depth reporting is a perfect match with the way we approach public opinion polling. We are pleased to be able to work with a partner that believes in the substance of what polling adds to the news."

The dust up that began last week when the University of Houston cried foul after the South Texas College of Law announced its intended name change to Houston College of Law has reached a much higher level of dispute. On Monday, UH filed a trademark infringement lawsuit in U.S. District Court calling for a halt to the name change.
Going for the jugular, UH has hired trial lawyer and Donald Trump supporter Tony Buzbee as lead counsel. A UH law graduate accustomed to multi-million dollar settlements, Buzbee has been quoted in the past on his courtroom stance, saying, "I am at war. I won't fail."
The suit alleges that the name change and its adoption of the UH red and white scheme in its logo constitutes "intentional and willful infringement of UH's intellectual property and unfair competition," which results in "confusion in the marketplace and damage" to the university and its brand.
Joining Buzbee in the effort is Sutton, McAughan, Deaver, PLLC.
Houston College of Law spokeswoman Claire Caton told the Associated Press that the school does not comment on pending litigation.

Evonik marks 60 years of operations at Janesville, Wisc., Nutrition & Care site
Today, Evonik Corporation celebrated 60 years of production at its Nutrition & Care production site in Janesville, Wisc., with current and former employees, executives, and local dignitaries. The anniversary was marked by plant tours, presentations from the various Evonik business lines that Janesville serves, and a celebratory lunch.
The 85 employees at Evonik's Janesville site manufacture ingredients for a variety of consumer and industrial products including fabric softeners, paper additives, car sprays, hair conditioners, skincare and sun screen. The site also produces materials for industrial uses in drilling muds and metal working fluids.
"To celebrate 60 years here at Janesville is a true testament to the employees, some of whom have been here for more than 45 years!" said David DelGuercio, senior vice president and general manager, Nutrition & Care, Americas. "These highly skilled workers make products that help improve our daily lives. To meet that goal, the focus on safety, quality and reliability must be unrelenting, and we applaud them for reaching this milestone today."
"Since Evonik acquired the facility in 1999, we have made significant investments to expand and modernize the site," said Hans Schuhbauer, Janesville site manager. "Now, our educated and loyal workforce is poised to capitalize on future growth opportunities at this ideal plant location."
"On behalf of your neighbors and customers across Wisconsin, congratulations to Evonik on sixty years in business. As the company expands with its new facility in Milton, I'm confident it will be a source of employment and opportunity for Wisconsinites for decades more to come. As October is Manufacturing Month, this is the perfect time to celebrate all the businesses and industries that keep our state strong and our economy growing," added Rebecca Kleefisch, Lieutenant Governor of Wisconsin.
The Janesville site got its start in 1957 as the Varney Chemical Company. It was initially formed to satisfy the needs of consumers who longed for softer water. Today, it consists of two production areas, three warehouses and three laboratories. Even in Evonik's current product portfolio, some trade names still reflect the name of the original owner, for example, VARISOFT® and VARIQUAT®. The site changed hands a number of times over the years before being purchased by Goldschmidt Chemical Corp in 1999. Two years later, Degussa purchased Goldschmidt. Then, in 2007, Degussa changed its name to Evonik. In fact, Evonik recently marked its 10th anniversary as a company that operates globally under this name, in September.

Russian energy company under pressure from European concerns of over-reach.
PARIS, March 30 (UPI) -- Paris hosted a delegation of Russian energy officials to review French natural gas needs and prospects for pipeline development, Gazprom said.
Gazprom Chairman Alexei Miller led the delegation to meet with French Economic Minister Emmanuel Macron and top administration officials to review cooperation in the natural gas sector. Miller in a statement said "since the beginning of the year Russian gas exports to France have grown by almost 2.8 million cubic feet, which is more than one and a half times higher compared to the previous year."
Gazprom has in the past worked closely with French energy company ENGIE, formerly known as GDF Suez. Both companies are partners in the Nord Stream natural gas pipeline running through the Baltic Sea to European shores. Gazprom said expanding that pipeline was on the agenda during the talks in Paris.
Miller in September signed a shareholder agreement on the development of the second phase of the twin Nord Stream pipeline system with his counterparts at German energy companies BASF and E.ON, as well as those from French company ENGIE, Austria's OMV and Royal Dutch Shell.
Under the proposed expansion, two more lines would be added to the existing network running to the German coast, roughly doubling the pipeline's net capacity.
The European Union has expressed concern about Russia's control over the regional market as the company typically controls both the transit networks and the reserves they deliver. The European Commission earlier this month said it supported the Finnish government's plans to grant $31.5 million to build a terminal for liquefied natural gas. By ending energy isolation for Baltic states, the European body said the strategy is in line with regional efforts to improve energy security. Finland relies almost entirely on Russia for natural gas.
In a separate statement, Gazprom said it signed a deal with Belgian company Fluxys to help advance small-scale LNG projects in the European market.
"By developing this segment, Gazprom will further diversify its export potential and increase sustainable supplies of energy to Europe," Gazprom Deputy Chairman Alexander Medvedev said.

The anti-immigration Swiss People's Party became the largest party in parliament in 2009, and minarets on mosques were banned in a referendum in 2009.

Reginald Baylor – 35th Annual Black Excellence Awards Honoree
Extraordinary Achievement
Reginald Baylor
Reginald Baylor Studio
When he was a youth, Reginald Baylor earned the distinction of being 'the artist in the family,' and lent his talents to help promote the family's produce business by painting signage and other items related to the business.
Growing up in Milwaukee on 41st and Hampton, Reginald attended Lutheran parochial schools, where teachers encouraged him in his artwork. He also credits his parents for recognizing and supporting his talent and passion.
When Reginald was in seventh grade, his family moved to Mequon, where he attended public schools and graduated from Homestead High School. After graduation he attended UW-Oshkosh, majoring in fine arts, with an emphasis on sculpture. As a backup plan to ensure he would not become a starving artist, Reginald switched his major to art education with the intent of becoming an art teacher. Three credits shy of earning a degree, he left college in 1988. He remained in Oshkosh for a few years before moving to California. There he met his wife, Jill, and worked at the Laguna Beach Art Museum and Newport Art Museum, helping to install exhibits. The experience was critical to his own artistry, and he moved from sculpture to painting in acrylics.
In 1995, he connected with Suzanne Zada, a Beverly Hills, California art dealer, who continues to represent him today. In 1995, Reginald moved his family to Chicago, where he was employed as an owner-operator for Mason Dixon Trucking.
"It was my own truck and obviously was a secure job so I could provide for my family. Since I was my own businessman, I could continue working part-time on my art. By the time I quit driving the truck, I had about 20 paintings in my inventory. With Suzanne selling my paintings back in California, I started believing that my art could sustain my family, but since the cost of living was so high in California, I returned to Milwaukee," he said.
After relocating to Milwaukee in 1998, Reginald began his full time career creating and exhibiting his artwork from his studio in Milwaukee's Third Ward. In 2009 he even served as artist-in-residence at the Pfister Hotel. The residency afforded Reginald an opportunity to learn more about the business aspects of being an artist, such as marketing and planning.
"My mom, Helen Baylor, was always one of my biggest fans. She was also part of the African American Art Alliance (AAAA). She introduced me to Sande Robinson, an avid art collector, member of the board of trustees of the Milwaukee Art Museum (MAM) and president of the AAAA. Sande, in turn, introduced me to Curtis L. Carter, professor of aesthetics at Marquette and chief curator of the Haggerty Museum of Art. That was my biggest break into the Milwaukee art community," he said.
Today, Reginald Baylor Studio is located in Walker's Point. The studio's tagline is "Manufacturing Creativity," which concisely describes the business' mission.
"We're a design firm that provides creative services to any individual, group or business, whether it's a product, experience or marketing concept. If clients need help finding ways to be more creative, that's what we do," he said.
Reginald hasn't forgotten his stint as a student art teacher, so he is committed to giving several presentations a year to students about art and art history—mostly at the elementary school level.
"The studio has always had some arm in education. The studio is a big fan of True School and Artworks, which is a mentor organization for me. We are also in the process of establishing some programs specifically offering services to underrepresented populations in Milwaukee; it's an unrepresented movement," he said.
One of the challenges Reginald sees is helping people understand the value of creativity. The studio focuses on commissioned work, 2D prints, but also sells smaller accessible works like t-shirts, shower curtains, and jewelry.
"Creativity economically isn't measured properly; it isn't valued properly. Many think art is about possessing million dollar paintings. I'm more on the accessible side of the art world than the extravagant, high-end side. I want people to value, understand and appreciate creativity," he said.
Reginald said that all he wants people to remember about him is that he tried to provide opportunities.
"That's all—I provided opportunities," he said.

Hanging Garden - Hereafter
by Gabriel Zimmerman at 22 January 2017, 10:13 AM
When people talk about the cornucopia of metal that Scandinavia provides us, they often talk about Norway and it's black metal scene or the death metal scene in Sweden. When it comes to Finland though, there isn't a specific subgenre the country is known for so we as metalheads can get seemingly anything great from Finland, from power metal to doom metal. HANGING GARDEN is no exception, being a great band from Finland making some good Melodic Doom Metal. Their newest EP, Hereafter, showcases their talent and further inclusion of more melodic elements, as well as their progression and continued improvement, though some might say there are times on the EP that the tempo isn't any kind of metal. Despite this, the EP is well made and produced and not a bad listen
The album begins with "Penumbra" (featuring Mikko Kotamäki of SWALLOW THE SUN), one of the heavier songs on the EP. There are some very good riffs and a strong mix of harsh and clean vocals, however overall it sounds very much like INSOMNIUM's album Shadows of the Dying Sun. It is a good song overall however, but I must admit it feels a bit lacking. "Hereafter", featuring Rikka Hatakka, by comparison is purely melodic. Overall it is certainly the most mellow song on the album, and the clean vocals do very well to match the tempo of the song. This is definitely one of the aforementioned songs that some might say isn't even Doom Metal, however. Finally though, when it comes to "Where the Tides Collide", is where the EP shines most. Featuring Alexander Höbgom of OCTOBER TIDE and CENTINEX, the song does very well in mixing harsher and more melodic aspects. Great riffs with a strong beat and tempo, and both the male and female vocals shine alongside great harsh vocals, I really have nothing negative to say about this song.
Overall, not a bad EP. It definitely has it's highs such as "Where Tides Collide", and it's lows such as "Sirkle of Onan", and it definitely has the sound of something that is experimental. It also fluctuates in it's sound quite a bit, with contrasting songs such as "Hereafter" and "Penumbra". The strong points are almost certainly the consistency in keeping a good tempo and vocals that match the tempo, as well as the vocals in general. Both harsh vocals and clean vocals are well done here, though that does not mean there isn't room for improvement. While it is certainly mellow and melodic, I would recommend it to anyone seeking slower tempo metal.

Unfortunally, its no walk in the park with sunflowers and daisies.
There are roadblocks, paths, and choices you have to make.
Growing up is challenging, with its struggles and pains.
Its like being a rose getting trampled, and trampled again.
Or like being a frail tree getting knocked down by the wind.
But in the end it's worth the wait.
The rose got its thorns, and the tree got its rings.

When teenager Zach (Dylan Minnette) inadvertently releases the creatures, the three have to team up to send them back to where they came from before it's too late.
Another one for the kids is Hotel Transylvania. Although he's a monster, Dracula is much like any other overprotective dad when it comes to his teenage daughter, Mavis (voiced by Selena Gomez). He makes up stories about terrible dangers in order to keep her from wanting to venture outside of the hotel. Dracula's world starts crumbling when an ordinary human guy (voiced by Andy Samberg), manages to find his way into the hotel and falls for Mavis.

Struggling with their relationship for over a year, a sudden family tragedy for Dani (Florence Pugh) finds her accepting an invite from Christian (Jack Reynor), for a trip with his friends to Sweden to attend a once-in-a-lifetime midsummer festival. What initially appears to be a carefree, peaceful and idyllic event becomes unsettling when they're invited to partake in increasingly unnerving and disturbing festivities, putting them at the mercy of this bizarre and insular community.
The Strangers is one really creepy movie, especially if you're all alone at home. The horrifying events that took place in the Hoyt family's vacation home at 1801 Clark Road on February 11, 2005 are still not entirely known.
The Cabin in the Woods is a horror comedy that delivers more laughs than scares. Five college students go for a vacation at a remote cabin in the woods. Unknowingly, they are watched by two sophisticated technicians.
Thrillers The Purge and The Purge: Anarchy are both recommended viewing for Halloween. The Purge takes place in a dystopian future society, where a political regime called the New Founding Fathers of America tries to clamp down on rampant violence and crime by imposing strict laws. As an experiment, they try something called The Purge, in which for 12 hours, all crime, including murder, is completely legal.
Have a safe and spooky Halloween! ~Marriska Fernandes

Wassily Kandinsky was born in Moscow in December 1866, the son of successful merchant parents who moved to Odessa before he was 5. Brought up there largely by his aunt after his parents' separation, Kandinsky was well educated and well traveled from a young age. In 1886 he started at the University of Moscow, where he earned the equivalent of a doctorate in law and economics. After graduating in 1892, Kandinsky married his cousin, Anja Chimiakin, and became a lecturer on Jurisprudence at the University of Moscow.
His fascination with art prompted him to relinquish his teaching position in 1896 and move to Munich to begin formal art studies. There, the Jugendstil (Art Nouveau) movement was in vogue, strongly affecting Kandinsky's work. Studying first with artist Anton Azbe and later with Franz von Stuck at the Art Academy, he associated with a number of ex-pat Russians, producing work that was brightly coloured, often exploring narrative and fairy tale themes.
After completing his studies in 1901, Kandinsky co-founded the Phalanx Artists' Association in Munich where he taught Gabriele Münter. By the summer of 1902, the two had become romantically involved, much to the dismay of his wife. Kandinsky and Münter became engaged in the summer of 1903, while he was still married to Anja, and travelled extensively through Europe, Russia and North Africa until 1908.
The period between 1909 and 1914 proved to be Kandinsky's most productive. Gabriele bought a summerhouse in 1909 in Murnau where they spent many happy times with their colleagues. (Still known as Russenhaus, in its basement, she hid many works by Kandinsky and others from the Nazis.) Upon returning to Munich, Kandinsky founded the Neue Kunstler Vereinigung (New Artists' Association) in 1909.
Fellow painter Alexej von Jawlensky, who was much more aware of developments in French art and had direct contact with Henri Matisse, greatly influenced Kandinsky's use of colour and form. During this time with the NKV, Kandinsky began to paint in a progressively more abstracted form. He also delved further into his fascination with the way in which art - be it music or painting - can trigger intense emotional responses. Late that year NKV had their first show in Munich, enthusiastically defended in the press by Franz Marc whom Kandinsky met along with Auguste Macke at the second NKV show the following spring.
The year 1911 was momentous for Kandinsky. He met both Schoenberg and Klee who became life long friends and influences. He finally legalised his separation from his wife, Anja. He painted his first "non-objective" painting, following which a dispute over artistic sensibilities ensued so he and Marc left the NKV to form their own organization, the seminal group Der Blaue Reiter, which lasted until the declaration of war in was declared in 1914.
He published his volume, Concerning the Spiritual in Art, in 1912, dedicating it to his aunt to whom he attributed his love of music and art. As Kandinsky's work developed, he moved further away from representational painting. This was a gradual process, images becoming ever more unrecognizable. He had his first solo exhibition in Munich and the first of his works shown at the New York Armory (also Chicago and Boston) was bought by Alfred Stieglitz in 1913.
With the outbreak of hostilities, he fled to Switzerland with Gabriele who soon went on to Stockholm while he returned to Russia where he remained except for a final brief visit with Gabriele in 1916 in Sweden. The war and subsequent revolution were disheartening years filled with disappointment, mildly brightened by his marriage to Nina Nikolaevna Andreevskaia in 1917. Kandinsky and his new wife stayed in Moscow until 1922 when he was offered a teaching position at the famous Bauhaus school in Weimar, leaving Moscow, oddly enough, with the full approbation of the government.
There, his work evolved into more geometric abstraction, in which the circle, square, and triangle were emphasized. Kandinsky became a member of the Blaue Vier (The Blue Four), a group that was founded by Emmy (Galka) Scheyer and included Jawlensky, Klee and Lyonel Feininger. His first solo exhibition in the US was held at the Societé Anonyme in New York in 1923, attracting the attention of Solomon R. Guggenheim. In 1926, he published his treatise Point and Line to Plane and, in celebration of his sixtieth year, there were many Kandinsky shows organized across Germany and Europe.
By 1925, the radically avant-garde Bauhaus had already become something of a political football and was moved to Dessau, finally succumbing to the Nazi regime in 1933. At 67, Kandinsky was once again uprooted, moving to France where he became a citizen in 1939, living out the occupation years with his wife in Neuilly-sur-Seine. Painting until the end, he died shortly after his 78th birthday on December 13, 1944.

Denise Welch reveals sad, lonely times working at Corrie
Denise Welch, who played Natalie Horrocks in Coronation Street was interviewed on ITV's Loose Women this week where she spoke about how sad and lonely she was when she first worked on the show.
She says: "...everyone thought I was having this brilliant time and certainly for the first three or four months I was incredibly lonely. I had left the north east where we had moved back to, Matty (her son) was about nine, and I had come down to do 17 episodes, which could be done in three weeks or four weeks 'cos you do that many.
"And then they said 'Will you do some more, would you do some more?' and Natalie's house was on location so on a Sunday we would go there and I could never get home and everybody on the show pretty much lived in Manchester and I just kept thinking 'Is anyone going to invite me for dinner or anything?'
"I just felt really lonely for a time so I always made it a point of mine that when new people came in I would make sure they were all right and I used to say we need to get a starter pack going and try to look after the young people because I could kind of deal with what happened to my life in my late 30s but for the young people their life can change very quickly."
However, she also said she made life long friends on the soap, including Sally Dynevor, who plays Sally Webster, Charlie Lawson, who plays Jim McDonald, and Kevin Kennedy, who played Curly Watts.
She said of Kevin Kennedy: "We both had alcohol issues during our time in Coronation Street and we kind of helped each other through those times."
She also fondly remembered Anne Kirkbride, who played Deirdre Barlow and who died in 2015, saying: "She was so funny, she actually dragged me off to get my belly button pierced once, I can't remember why. Then when I was pregnant it popped off and I never saw it again."
Welch said it was time to leave the soap after her character, who arrived on the cobbles as Kevin Webster's mistress, became less fun.
She said: "That was a great storyline, it was so brilliant because nobody would ever consider that someone that broke up the Websters' marriage would then go on to be a long running character and when I was playing the real bitch that was fantastic to play but to keep Natalie in the show they had to soften her to the point that I nearly became Emily Bishop and then it was time to go."
It's always interesting, I think, to get a look behind the scenes in ways like these.

These Dawn framing camera (FC) images of Vesta show Rubria crater at both HAMO (high-altitude mapping orbit) and LAMO (low-altitude mapping orbit) resolutions. The left image is the HAMO image and the right image is the LAMO image. Rubria is the crater in the top left of the LAMO image. The LAMO image is approximately three times better spatial resolution than the HAMO image. In images with higher spatial resolutions smaller objects can be better distinguished. The spectacular detail of Rubria crater is clear in the LAMO image. For example, there are boulders on the bottom side of the crater. They can be distinguished from small craters, which cast shadows to the right, by the shadows that they cast to the left. Also visible is the fine-scale intermingling of dark and bright material around the left and top rim of the crater, which can only be partially be seen in the HAMO image. There are also a large amount of streaks and slumps of material along the crater walls that are much clearer in the LAMO image.
These images are located in Vesta's Gegania quadrangle, a little south of Vesta's equator. NASA's Dawn spacecraft obtained the left image with its framing camera on Oct. 22, 2011. This image was taken through the camera's clear filter. The distance to the surface of Vesta is 700 kilometers (435 miles) and the image has a resolution of about 63 meters (207 feet) per pixel. This image was acquired during the HAMO (high-altitude mapping orbit) phase of the mission. NASA's Dawn spacecraft obtained the right image with its framing camera on March 16, 2012. This image was taken through the camera's clear filter. The distance to the surface of Vesta is 272 kilometers (169 miles) and the image has a resolution of about 17 meters (56 feet) per pixel. This image was acquired during the LAMO (low-altitude mapping orbit) phase of the mission.


Canaan Media can transfer ½", 1″ & 2″ open reel in a professional matter, to create a high quality long-term digital archive.
In addition to ¼" tape, studio and multitrack machines use tape widths of ½", 1″ and 2″, and at least one 3″ machine was available for a time.
Tapes of ½", 1″ and 2″ width are available in many professional formulations, especially but not only formulations of 35 µm thickness (the thickness known as long play when used as ¼" tape). The wider tape also made it possible to produce professional quality tapes of about 25 µm thickness (the thickness known as double play in ¼" applications) in ½" and wider formats.
Canaan is proud to be one of the few service providers in the United States which provide digitization service for these professional reels.
Reel-to-reel/open-reel tape recording is the form of magnetic tape audio recording in which the recording medium is held on a reel, rather than being securely contained within a cassette.
In use, the supply reel or feed reel containing the tape is mounted on a spindle; the end of the tape is manually pulled out of the reel, threaded through mechanical guides and a tape head assembly, and attached by friction to the hub of a second, initially empty takeup reel.
The reel-to-reel format was used in the earliest tape recorders, including the pioneering German-British Blattnerphone machines of the late 1920s which used steel tape, and the German Magnetophon machines of the 1930s. Originally, this format had no name, since all forms of magnetic tape recorders used it. The name arose only with the need to distinguish it from the several kinds of tape cartridges or cassettes such as the endless loop cartridge developed for radio station commercials and spot announcements in 1954, the full size cassette, developed by RCA in 1958 for home use, as well as the compact cassette developed by Philips in 1962, originally for dictation.
Reel-to-reel tape was also used in early tape drives for data storage on mainframe computers, video tape recorder (VTR) machines, and high quality analog audio recorders, which have been in use from the early 1940s, up until the present. Studer, Stellavox and Denon still produced reel to reel tape recorders in the 1990s, but currently only Nagra, Otari, and Mechlabor continue to manufacture analog reel-to-reel recorders.

European leaders call for increased fiscal integration
Lisbon summit sees European leaders calling for greater economic and monetary integration amid populist threats and uncertainty, stating that "weakening Europe is not an option"
Donald Trump has been communicating with European leaders, but distancing his administration at the same time
Author: Kim Darrah
Related topics: European Monetary Union, eurozone, Trump
In a summit that took place in Lisbon on January 28, the leaders of Cyprus, France, Greece, Italy, Malta, Portugal and Spain released a joint statement railing against protectionism and calling for greater European unity. The summit took place amid a backdrop of mounting populist threats to the union and the start of Donald Trump's presidency, which is leading the US towards greater isolationism.
The joint statement emphasised the importance of strengthening both fiscal and monetary integration in Europe at this time. "We believe that in a world confronted with growing uncertainties and instability, we will be stronger by acting together."
The statement called for a greater deepening of the European Monetary Union, claiming that completing the banking union by mid 2017 should be seen as a top priority, as well as confirming a commitment to the implementation of the Capital Markets Union.
François Hollande was the only leader to specifically refer to the new US administration
A move towards fiscal integration was also a key outcome of the talks, with the leaders stating an intention to prepare the discussion on the introduction of a "fiscal capacity" for the eurozone. The leaders also expressed their support for a strengthening of the European Fund for Strategic Investments, with an emphasis on the promotion of funding for "cross-border projects of common interest that foster innovation and market integration".
With imbalances in the benefits of eurozone membership presenting a source of tension in the political landscape, a key theme in the discussion was the reduction of disparities between member states. The statement claimed that the leaders held a shared "urgency" for promoting convergence. It also included a call for clear proposals on closing economic divergences and asymmetries that have been intensified by the eurozone crisis.
While the statement did not specifically mention Donald Trump's administration, it presented a clear aim to reject the approaching tide of protectionism. "We need to develop a robust trade policy based on fair exchanges, the promotion of our standards and the safeguarding of our way of life. Protectionist reactions are not the right answer", it argued. François Hollande was the only leader to specifically refer to the new US administration. "What is at stake is populism. The kind of discourse now coming from the US encourages populism and even extremism", he said.
The show of European unity expressed at this summit is a clear signal that EU member states will not give way to the populist sentiment that is gaining ground in both the US and Europe. Instead, increased togetherness is being adopted as a strategy, with a strengthening of economic integration at the heart of this approach. As the statement read: "Weakening Europe is not an option".

Q: What does "as good as'' mean in the sentence?
As good as the English voice cast is, though, it's a shame that Sucker Punch wasn't able to find a way to have the performance capture match the Japanese voice acting as well.

What does "as good as'' mean in the sentence?

A: It's hard to analyse grammatically, because it's a blend of two different constructions.
One is complex temporal conjunctions such as as soon as, as quickly as, and as long as (the last of which often loses its temporal meaning and becomes conditional).
The other is the somewhat literary construction Good as the English voice cast is, which means "even though the English voice cast is good".
This blend is now quite often heard where only the Good as ... would have been used in the past.

Q: Remove lines that contain specific string I have the following text and I want to remove line that only contains " " (i.e. remove first and last line but keep the third line) using JavaScript?
Original:

    ABCDEF

Desired result:

    ABCDEF

A: Give it a shot:
var output = str.replace(/(?:^|\r?\n)(?: )*?(?=$|\r?\n)/g, '');

Fiddle
Also, in case you want to keep lines without any text replace * by +. That is, considering this input text:
foo

baz

The first regex would remove the empty line:
foo
baz

While /(?:^|\r?\n)(?: )+?(?=$|\r?\n)/g keeps it:
foo

baz

A: This function should do it:
function cleanLines(s) {
var x = s.match(/[^\r\n]*/g), i, y;
for (i=0; i<x.length; i++) {
y = x[i].replace(/\s* \s*/g, '');
if (y.length == 0)
x[i] = y;
else
x[i] = x[i] + '\n'; /* or \r\n if you want 30-year obsolete typewriter carriage returns */
}
return x.join('');
}

Run the function cleanLines(inputString) to obtain a return value with all the lines deleted that you don't want.


Joe Marler has called Gloucester winger Jonny May a 'weird stalker' and claimed that the two are not friends.
Appearing on BBC Radio Five Live's Rugby Union Weekly Podcast, the Harlequins and England prop was asked who his worst roommate was.
When he suggested May, Ugo Monye commented that Marler had a weird relationship with the Gloucester man.
Deacs' Week: Was the selection for Bath derby misjudged?
Marler said: "We don't have a relationship with each other, this needs to be squashed.
Monye then remarked that the pair are always hanging out together on England duty.
Marler joked: "Are we always hanging out together? He is a weird stalker."

Q: SQL queries from database with Laravel I'm using Laravel and trying to do an SQL query from my Controller in a public function, but I'm really confused where I would put my table in the argument and if quotes go around the argument. Here is my code
 public function selectMethod(){
    $results = DB::select('select firstname from people where id = 1');
    print_r($results);
    return view('pages.selectMethod');
}

table is called people
My .env is configured to my database correctly and I get this error
FatalErrorException in AboutController.php line 90:
Class 'App\Http\Controllers\DB' not found
Thanks !

A: you should add use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB;
at the top of your page
for example :
    <?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

class UserController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Show a list of all of the application's users.
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function index()
    {
        $users = DB::table('users')->get();

        return view('user.index', ['users' => $users]);
    }
}

A: Your error clearly states: Class 'App\Http\Controllers\DB' not found
Hence just use DB in your class. Add:
use DB;

At the top of the file just below the namespace line.
Also, I would suggest you to use Eloquent for your queries. It will make your life a lot easier and your code a lot beautiful.

«Сканда́л у Боге́мії» — твір (оповідання) із серії «Пригоди Шерлока Холмса» Артура Конана Дойла. Вперше опубліковано Strand Magazine у 1891 році.

Один із найкращих творів про Шерлока Холмса.

Сюжет

До Шерлока Холмса звертається дворянин, що приховує своє обличчя. Він назвався графом фон Крамом. Холмса не вводить в оману маскарад — він прямо звертається до візитера «ваша величність» і називає його ім'я: Вільгельм фон Ормштайн, король Богемії. Клієнта шантажує авантюристка Ірен Адлер: колись король мав з нею зв'язок, але згодом вони розлучилися. Тепер король має намір одружитися з жінкою, чиє походження відповідає його статусу, та Ірен погрожує завадити весіллю, передавши родині нареченої компрометуючу фотографію, на якій Ормштейн і вона зняті разом. Король хоче, щоб Холмс будь-що здобув цю фотографію. Раніше він уже наймав злодіїв і грабіжників, які перерили весь будинок Ірен і навіть обшукали її саму, але не знайшли світлину.

Завдання не дуже подобається Холмсу, але він береться за справу. У процесі розслідування Холмс, який стежив за Ірен в образі звичайного лондонського жебрака, опиняється в церкві у момент, коли Ірен і її коханий, якийсь адвокат, хочуть узяти шлюб, але священник навідріз відмовляється здійснювати обряд без свідків, оскільки пара не виконала якісь формальності. Поява «жебрака»-Холмса розв'язує проблему — його запрошують як свідка і він отримує від Ірен золотий соверен за послуги.

Акція, здійснена Холмсом за допомогою Ватсона і найнятих людей, дозволяє йому проникнути в будинок Ірен і дізнатися, де лежить фотографія. Наступного дня, прийшовши разом із королем до будинку Ірен, вони знаходять у схованці лише лист від неї. Ірен пише, що, вийшовши заміж, не збирається більше чинити перешкод для шлюбу короля. Жадана світлина відсутня. Натомість разом із листом вони знаходять іншу фотографію з зображенням Ірен. Цю фотографію Шерлок Холмс залишає собі як плату за невдало проведену справу. Ірен Адлер назавжди залишається для Холмса ідеалом жінки, єдиною, від якої він зазнав поразки, тієї, яку він називає «Та Жінка».

Цікаві факти

Богемія (Чехія), у періоді, який описується в оповіданні, вже не мала власного монарха — з XVI ст. це королівство було під контролем Австрійських Габсбургів.

Q: access global variable in static scope Is there a way to access global variable, declared in the script, from the static method of the class, declared in the same script?
For example
def s = "12345"

class MyClass {

        println s
    }
}

Because that way it fails with the error
You attempted to reference a variable in the binding or an instance variable from a static context

which is expected though.

A: Well, the problem is that in Groovy there is no such thing as a global variable. What is loosely considered a global variable is actually a static property within some class.
For example, if you remove the println line so that the code compiles, you get something like this out of the compiler:
public class script1455567284805 extends groovy.lang.Script {

    ...

    public java.lang.Object run() {
        return java.lang.Object s = '12345'
    }

    ...

}

public class MyClass implements groovy.lang.GroovyObject extends java.lang.Object {

    ...

    public static java.lang.Object method() {
        // This is where the println would have been.
        return null
    }

    ...
}

As you can see, an additional class is created and the the s variable is declared within the method run() of that class. This makes the variable inaccessible to your other class.
Note: Removing the def will not address this issue.
Solution
Your best bet is to place your "global variables" into a class, possibly as static properties, like this:
class Global {
    static Object S = "12345"
}

class MyClass {
    static def method() {
        println Global.S
    }
}

A: There is a related discussion at this question:
Groovy scope - how to access script variable in a method
Related in that both questions refer to using a global variable within a class, but this question differs somewhat in that you are seeking to use a static method which alters how you pass the script instance or binding (2 choices).
Passing the Script's Instance
import groovy.transform.Field

@Field def s = "12345"

class MyClass {
    static def method(si) {
      return si.s
    }
}

assert MyClass.method(this) == "12345"

Passing the Script's binding
s = "12345" // NOTE: no 'def'

class MyClass {
    static def method(b) {
      return b.s
    }
}

assert MyClass.method(binding) == "12345"

A: You included a variable type with the s variable (by using the def type). In a Groovy script, this is treated as a local variable - and local to the run() method that is generated - which is kind of like a main() class. As a result, the variable is not available in other methods or classes.
If you remove the def you will be able to make use of the s variable.
Here is the Groovy documentation that explains this further.


The idea that individual vocal sounds have meaning is not a popular idea amongst linguists which follow conventional linguistic theories, that is, those theories that cannot account for the results obtained when the sound symbolism hypothesis is applied. Thus, no surprise. Mind that the term "sound symbolism" is a confusing one and can be interpreted à lá Voronin (who talks about a sub-field of linguistic iconism -- phonologic as opposed to syntactic iconism) or in line with Jakobson's view, who considers the term more concerned with Peirce's 'icon' rather than 'symbol'.
Testing the phonosemantics hypothesis requires highly complex non-linear models quite beyond the naïve conventional linguistic models. This is so because experience is neither simple, not linear, something already signaled by Lakoff when he explicitely writes about the possibility of polysemy, the role of metaphor and metonym.
In her thesis, Margaret Magnus wrote that the 14 experiments she ran showed that word meanings are decomposable into various components, some of which are arbitrary and some not. She adds that since no word can function without all these components, it follows that all word meanings are in part arbitrary and in part predictable from their form. The new non-linear models do favor this statement and, furthermore, they show that even those word meanings termed "arbitrary" are not that arbitrary as she assumed. Magnus' asks as to whether the semantics of words (other than the Concrete Nouns) shifts with it, and the new phonosemantics models do give an answer: yes, they do. The new models include mechanisms to account for phonaesthemes (Firth 1930), defined as frequently recurring sound/meaning pairings that are not clearly contrastive morphemes. An example is the English onset gl- (Wallis 1699, Bloomfield 1933), which, like other phonaesthemes, is relatively infrequent in English, except among words with meanings related to 'vision' and 'light' (see Benjamin K. Bergen).
Again, the extent to which phonaesthemes play a role in the synchronic mental organization of language remains an open question for those conventional linguists, be it because the concept of mental synchronicity needs be revised, or be it because what turns those linguists "conventional" is precisely their unability to accept anything that lies beyond their fences. As Bergen correctly states, phonaesthemes' cognitive status remains controversial in part because they do not fit well into linguistic theories that view compositionality as a defining characteristic of morphological complexity, such as so-called ITEM-AND-ARRANGEMENT models (Hockett 1954).
In this report we refine our models (NodeSpaces-3316 and 3321) by incorporating the ability to encode some specific statistical associations within the linguistic environment in order to test Bergen's hypothesis that phonaesthemes that are well represented should yield new forms over time for which there is no cognate in closely related languages (taking into account that, for the established cognate sets, words can easily have different vowel quantity).
Additionaly, we also incorporate in our models Harris & Campbell (1995) proposal of syntactic correspondence sets, by means of which they compare sentences from different languages which have the same propositional meaning, and the grammatical morphemes of which correspond to each other systematically (turning therefore these sentences into cognates).

The course is a combination point-to-point (West Quoddy Head to Lubec) and out-and-back (from the FDR memorial bridge to Head Harbour lighthouse and back). On-course markers are in 1-mile and 5-km increments
Marathon Course
To review the course in more detail on MapMyRun click here.
While the course does not climb more than 200 feet / 60 metres above sea level, it goes up and down rather a lot in between. In consequence map-generated elevation charts can be misleading. A course profile generated from a GPS watch is shown below.
Total course elevation gain is approximately 2,400 feet / 730 metres.
Porta-potties are located at the school parking area, the start, the finish, and at various points along the course.
Water and gatorade stations are less than 2 miles / 3.2 kms apart. There is one self-serve Gu gel packet station shortly before the turn around at Head Harbour light (16 miles / 25.7 kms).
There will be shuttle buses from the school to the start as there is no private vehicular access to West Quoddy Head Lighthouse on race morning.
Most parking is less than half a mile from the finish line, but there will be shuttle buses at the end of the race too for anyone who really needs them.
Runners may check one small soft bag at the starting area tobe transported to Lubec for retrieval near the finish line.
The marathon course will officially close after 6 hours, at 1:00pm ET / 2:00pm AT, and all traffic controls, aid stations and other facilities will be closed down. Anyone still on the course after this time may continue to the finish, but the race organizers will take no responsibility for them–the timing booth will be closed and the finish area, aid stations and medical support tent will dismantled.
There will be a special early start at 05:30am ET (06:30am AT) for anyone expecting to take longer than 6 hours on the course (i.e., a pace slower than 15 minutes per mile) – please should check the appropriate box on the registration form so we have an idea of numbers. The bus for the early start will leave Lubec at 05:00am ET / 06:00am AT. Early starters should note that they will not be allowed to cross the bridge into Canada (at 5.5 miles / 9 kms) until 6:30am and anyone taking the early start who finishes in less than 6 hours may be disqualified as they are disruptive to other race arrangements.
