Q: Fixed footer not pushed down by scroll content I am working on a layout with the following attributes:

*

*Fixed header (content should scroll up under it)

*Fixed 100% height column (left menu)

*Content area

*Footer that A. sticks to bottom if content is short, or, B. is pushed down with longer content (off screen)

I have managed to get 1,2,3 and 4 A. working. But I can't get the footer to get pushed down by the longer content. I based my initial workings on css reset (example here:http://www.cssreset.com/demos/layouts/how-to-keep-footer-at-bottom-of-page-with-css/), but, I am assuming that my fixed header and left column are not helping.
I'd really appreciate any pointers/suggestions on how I might overcome this.
Here is my code:
<!DOCTYPE html>

<meta charset="UTF-8" />
<title>Layout</title>

Fixed header

Fixed height column at 100%;

This would be my short or long content.

I should scroll under the header.

My footer should be fixed at the bottom of the screen if content is
    short, or, scroll should the content be longer.

    This is my fixed footer

A: Use four z-layers in your code:
At the top, put your text with opaque background.
In the layer below it, put one copy of your footer using position: fixed; in its class.
In the layer below that, have a div that is height: 100%; width: 100% and is opaque (i.e., has the same background color as your text) and travels with your text on scroll.
In the layer below that, put another copy of your footer that will travel with your text on scroll.
The z-order of these elements might not produce the exact effect, but it should point you in the right direction.

A: Hmmm, I think you you almost got it right! You just missed a couple CSS/structural details. You need to add a style definition for the .clear class, as follows:
.clear{
    clear:both;
}

Then, you need to move the .clear div element at the bottom of .sc_admin_content out of it, so that it lies in between .sc_admin_content and .sc_admin_footer.
Here's a JSFiddle example of what this would then look like. (Try deleting content and pressing "Run", and see that the footer stays stuck to the bottom!) If this isn't what you were looking for, let me know and I'll be happy to help further. Good luck!

Q: How to pull ids from array of hashes on ruby? Given:
data = [
  {"id"=>nil, "votable_id"=>1150, "user_ids"=>"1120,1119,1118,1117,1116,1115,1114,1113,1112,1111,1110,1109,1108,1107"},
  {"id"=>nil, "votable_id"=>1151, "user_ids"=>"1120,1119,1118,1117,1116,1115,1114,1113,1112,1111,1110,1109,1108,1107"}
]

I wish to return an array of all unique representations of integers in the strings g["user_ids"], taken over all hashes g that are elements of data; namely,
["1120", "1119", "1118", "1117", "1116", "1115", "1114",
 "1113", "1112", "1111", "1110", "1109", "1108", "1107"]

A: To get the unique ids:
unique_ids = data.flat_map { |d| d['user_ids'].split(',') }.uniq

*

*Enumerable#flat_map walks through the Array and concatenate
the results provided in the code block.

*String#split divides the string by the delimiter
into an Array.

*Array#uniq removes the duplicates.

A: If you use Rails, try this:
data.pluck('user_ids').join(',').split(',').uniq

If you don't use Rails:
data.map{ |d| d.dig('user_ids') }.join(',').split(',').uniq

Result:
#=> [
#     "1120", "1119", "1118", "1117", "1116", "1115", "1114",
#     "1113", "1112", "1111", "1110", "1109", "1108", "1107"
#   ]

A: data.reduce('') { |s,h| s + h['user_ids'] + ',' }.scan(/\d+/).uniq
  #=> ["1120", "1119", "1118", "1117", "1116", "1115", "1114", "1113",
  #    "1112", "1111", "1110", "1109", "1108", "1107"]

The steps are as follows.
str = data.reduce('') { |s,h| s + h['user_ids'] + ',' }
  => "1120,1119,...1107,1120,1119,...1107,"
arr = str.scan(/\d+/)
  #=> ["1120", "1119", "1118", "1117", "1116", "1115", "1114", "1113",
  #    "1112", "1111", "1110", "1109", "1108", "1107", "1120", "1119",
  #    "1118", "1117", "1116", "1115", "1114", "1113", "1112", "1111",
  #    "1110", "1109", "1108", "1107"]
arr.uniq
  #=> ["1120", "1119", "1118", "1117", "1116", "1115", "1114", "1113",
  #    "1112", "1111", "1110", "1109", "1108", "1107"]

A problem with this approach is that the intermediate array arr can be quite large if data contains many elements (hashes) and for each element h, h['user_ids'].split(',') contains many elements. One way around that is to build a set, which of course contains unique elements, and then convert that set to an array at the end.
require 'set'

data.each_with_object(Set.new) { |h,set|
  h["user_ids"].split(',').each { |s| set << s } }.to_a
  #=> ["1120", "1119", "1118", "1117", "1116", "1115", "1114",
  #    "1113", "1112", "1111", "1110", "1109", "1108", "1107"]

See Set::new, Set#<< and Set#to_a.
Note that the array returned here contains the same elements as the array returned earlier, but in a different order. I assume that is no import.

Ancient, BIG, Sprout and NoChance progress to Europe Minor
by Jur Dava in June 14, 2019 October 5, 2020
The Europe Minor Championship – Berlin 2019 closed qualifiers have concluded, with the final four teams booking their places alongside CR4ZY, Fnatic, mousesports and North in Germany in July.
Staged over three days from June 10-12, the last phase of qualifying featured 16 teams in a double-elimination bracket Bo3 playoff format.
SEE ALSO: CS:GO ESPORTS TOURNAMENTS
The closed qualifiers did not offer any prize money but instead gave the top eight teams a ticket to Berlin, where a $50,000 prize pool will be offered alongside two places in the StarLadder Berlin Major and one spot in the Minor play-in.
While a $30,000 main prize is by no means a small amount of money, the real reward is a chance to play the world's best CS:GO esports teams at the $1,000,000 StarLadder Major.
CR4ZY, Fnatic, mousesports and North secured passage to the Europe Minor on day two, which left four more spots to fill on the final day of qualifying.
Day three started off with Tricked Esport, Sprout, Virtus.pro and NoChance defeating their opponents to advance to the final round of playoffs, where they were paired as follows:
Team Ancient vs Tricked Esport
OpTic Gaming vs Sprout
BIG vs Virtus.pro
Heroic vs NoChance
Team Ancient and BIG both made short work of their opponents, beating them with relative ease.
Tricked Esport were no match for Team Ancient on either Dust II (16-10) or Nuke (16-13). While we saw some resistance in the second half on Nuke, Tricked simply fell short and lost 2-0.
On the other side, BIG were far too good for Virtus.pro. The Germans took a convincing 16-11 win on Train and repeated that scoreline on Inferno to seal a clean sweep.
The remaining two pairs, however, were far less one-sided.
Sprout entered the match against OpTic looking strong and started with a 16-10 on Mirage. They failed to deliver on Nuke, however, as OpTic squared the tie with a 16-11 result. It was all set up for a close finish, but Sprout found another level and gave OpTic only three rounds on the third and final map.
The second pair, while not as entertaining as the first, still provided us with a close fight. Heroic started off with a 16-11 win on Vertigo, followed by an 11-16 defeat on Mirage. NoChance completed the comeback with a 16-9 win on the last map to join CR4ZY, Fnatic, mousesports, North, Team Ancient, Sprout and BIG in Berlin.

A yellow-pigmented bacterium was isolated from blood of a 3-year-old boy in Göteborg, Sweden. Comparative analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that this bacterium is most closely related to Luteibacter rhizovicinus LJ96T and Dyella yeojuensis R2A16-10T, with sequence similarity of 98.3 % to both. Strain CCUG 25036T is clearly different from L. rhizovicinus CCUG 50033T and also from D. yeojuensis DSM 17673T in that DNA–DNA hybridization revealed relatedness of 33.7 and 29.8 %, respectively. Strain CCUG 25036T is further distinguished from L. rhizovicinus CCUG 50033T and D. yeojuensis DSM 17673T by being able to use d-mannose, d-mannitol and gluconate as sole carbon sources and by lacking the ability to use maltose or sucrose as sole carbon sources. The name Luteibacter anthropi sp. nov. is proposed for this novel species, with the type strain CCUG 25036T (=CCM 7598T). The proposal is also made to reclassify Dyella yeojuensis as Luteibacter yeojuensis comb. nov., with the type strain R2A16-10T (=DSM 17673T =KACC 11405T).

Twelve months after the House of Lords Committee's report on the Mental Capacity Act was published, the Committee will hold the Government to account for the action it has taken in response to the findings in a debate in the House [10 March].
The report's key finding was that "vulnerable adults are being failed by the Act designed to protect and empower them", and chair of the Committee Lord Hardie believes this largely remains the case.
"Our report found that tens of thousands of people were being deprived of their liberty without the protection of the law. The provisions designed to protect them – the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards[DoLS] – were found to be unfit for purpose. We recommended that the Government start from scratch and replace them entirely. I am gratified that the Government listened and decided to refer the safeguards to the Law Commission for review," he said.
"Our report also highlighted the poor implementation of the Mental Capacity Act. People do not know about the Act, or do not understand it, even though many professionals have legal obligations under it, and those who may lack capacity have legal rights under it. In order to achieve the necessary change in attitudes and practice across the health and social care sector we recommended that overall responsibility for the Act be given to an independent body whose task would be to oversee, monitor and drive forward implementation.
"That has not happened. The Government has announced a 'National Mental Capacity Forum', but 12 months on there are no terms of reference, membership or even a chair. There is absolutely no cause for complacency – stakeholders tell us that practice on the ground has not changed; vulnerable individuals and their families are still being failed by poor awareness and poor understanding of the Act. This timely debate provides an opportunity to press the Government on the slow progress it has made in tackling such a major issue."
The Committee found that the DoLS, inserted into the Mental Capacity Act in 2007 were not fit for purpose and recommended that they were replaced with legislation more in keeping with the language and ethos of the Mental Capacity Act as a whole.
Other Members expected to take part in the debate which starts at 6:30pm this evening include: Lord Brown of Eaton-under-Heywood, former Justice of the Supreme Court; Lord Beecham, Shadow Spokesperson for Justice; and Baroness Warnock. Lord Faulks will respond on behalf of the Government.


113 calorie breakfast. I sauteed mushrooms, onions, and bell pepper in some no-stick spray. I then added in 1/2 cup of egg beaters and scrambled everything together. I topped in with a bit of diced tomato and .25 oz. of shredded cheese. This would be great served with maybe some salsa and a warm low carb tortilla.


As the internet becomes more and more prevalent, people are finding more and more ways to make effective use of it. One thing which people really enjoy using the internet for is online dating. Almost everybody has the internet at home, so that's one thing that connects everybody and as there are a lot of people who are looking for a romantic relationship, this connection can be used to put those soul searchers in touch with one another. It's a fantastic idea and eHarmony is one of the most well known and highly regarded online dating sites – if you're interested in meeting someone new, maybe this is the tool for you!
When people lead busy lives with full time jobs, it can be difficult to encounter new people very often. Websites like eHarmony merely provide another avenue through which new people can be met. Some may look down on dating sites and regard relationships which start through them as somehow lesser than relationships which start when people meet through chance, but the testimonials from customers who have gone on to get married and have children with people they've met on eHarmony just go to show that online romances can blossom to much the same extent as any other relationships. At very least, it's worth experimenting if you are hoping to go on a few dates.
It was in the year 2000 that eHarmony first launched. This was around the time that the internet was really starting to be taken seriously as something which could revolutionise everyday life. Neil Clark Warren the man behind eHarmony and as he came from a background in psychology (and was the author of several successful relationship guidance books) it made sense for him to make this venture into the world of online dating. While that wasn't really a very long time ago, since then eHarmony has been able to amass thirty-three million users. The fact that it is used by quite so many people is a clear indicator that this is a service which is able to provide something substantial. Since the site's initial launch, it has also been expanded upon in several ways, for example: the service is now offered in several international locations and they also provide apps for most smart devices, which allows customers to use their services in whatever is the most comfortable means for them.
Nothing stands as a better advertisement for an online dating service, than a couple who have been happily married for years after meeting through it. If you're in any doubt as to whether or not eHarmony really "works" then you need only look through the large selection of testimonials that they have up on their site. There are countless people who have been in their relationship for years, or who are married now or even who have gone on to start a family! This is a clear reflection of the fact that eHarmony are offering something which can genuinely help people who are looking for love. Click here if you would like to read through the countless success stories of couples who met through eHarmony.
To ensure that customers get the best use out of their service, eHarmony go out of their way to try and ensure that customers get matched with people with whom they could have a happy relationship. When you sit up an account with eHarmony, they take several pieces of information about you then this all goes into a database along with information about all the other users. Then, using an intelligent algorithm which they created based on their relationship research findings, you will will be matched with somebody who they have determined is right for you. This helps to avoid the frustration of you going on a date with somebody who you have absolutely nothing in common with.
Not only do they go out of their way to try and ensure that their customers are getting matched with people who they could conceivably have a happy relationship with, but they also provide advice to customers to ensure that they are enjoying healthy relationships. This is important information, as unhealthy relationships can cause significant harm to a person's mental health. As well as this, they offer advice for how to remain safe when taking part in online dating. Obviously, there's a certain element of risk when it comes to taking part in online dating, as you will be meeting a stranger in reality, a stranger who may not be who they claim to be. eHarmony are aware that this is an issue and provide guidance for their customers so that they know to keep safe when using the service. Click here to find their dating advice.
The eHarmony App in the Apple App Store.
The eHarmony App in the Google Play Store.
The eHarmony App in the Microsoft Phone Store.
By offering a specialised app for each of these different operating systems, they've gone a long way towards making their services as appealing and accessible. A surprisingly large number of business fail to accommodate all smartphone operating systems and, as a result, they do not appeal to quite as many people. If you want to get into a romantic relationship, then it could be a good idea for you to download the app and get started right away.
As the eHarmony service is quite comprehensive, it is not actually available for free. They spend a lot of time trying to ensure that people are matched with others who they will be compatible with, rather than just pairing together random people as a lot of dating sites do. But if you're not quite sure that you want to make a monetary investment in something which you're not yet sold on, you might like to try using their free trial. This will allow you get a feel for what eHarmony is all about and give you an idea of how well it works – then, once you've been convinced, you can decide to go onto the paid package (if you want.) If you're interested in going for the eHarmony free trial, then you can click here to get started. With nothing to lose, there's no harm in experimenting.
If you want to get in touch with eHarmony, either to enquire about how the service works or even to ask specific questions about your account, you can reach them with the contact details listed below.
If you want to speak over the phone with the people at eHarmony, then you should call the following number: 0843 903 3781. This number will get you through directly to the head office and you can use it to make any enquiries you may have. The eHarmony customer services team are always happy to help and if you've got any question for them, no matter how small, they will be sure to give you an answer. Calling this number and then having a discussion with somebody about the benefits of an eHarmony account could be a useful think to do before committing yourself to a paid membership. Speaking directly to somebody will help to give you a clearer idea of all the finer details of the service – you'll be able to ask any questions as soon as they come into your head.

"I often felt as though I was travelling from nowhere to nowhere. Moving through landscapes that once meant an awful lot, but have been reduced to spaces of transit where everything is temporary and everyone is just passing through gave me a sense of unease and a hunger for places that matter".
The book consists of 47 short essays about particular places – from 'Traffic Islands' to islands that were marked on maps but never actually existed, from the new desert created after the shrinking of the Aral Sea to cities which have changed their names and identities through political revolution. The effect is strange. Bonnett's point is that to be human is to want to be involved in meaningful acts of place-making, but this is not an easy process. The forces that create placelessness are ever more powerful, and indeed many of the places Bonnett 'visited' via Google Earth! But even that is a serious point, since geographical imaginations are being shaped by a variety of media and everyday activities.
Off the Map, with its subtitle: 'Lost spaces, invisible cities, forgotten islands, feral places (and what they tell us about the world)' makes for an interesting read for geographers. It is the product of a fertile geographical imagination. Bonnett is a Professor of Social Geography at Newcastle University (UK) and has, since the early 1990s produced a series of books and articles that offer an idiosyncratic take on how ideas shape the world. I first encountered Bonnett at a teachers' conference on Anti-racist education in Luton in the mid-1990s. I remember it well because Bonnett spoke about his research on whiteness as an ethnicity. The idea that whiteness could be the basis for an ethnic identity caused some puzzlement. This was before the growing interest among geographers about the geographies of whiteness. After that, I kept an eye out for his work, and next encountered it through a little known journal called 'Transgressions: a journal of urban exploration' which was a forerunner of the psychogeographical literature that became so fashionable in the late 1990s and 2000s. This involved seeing and experiencing places in non-standard ways, such as exploring one city using a map of another one!
His next book was The idea of the West, and drew upon the notion of the 'myth of continents'. That is, the regions such as continents that we assume are geographical entities are best seen as geopolitical constructions. Bonnett explored the changing defintions, represresentations and political constructions of the 'west'. Next was his book What is Geography? Published in 2008 and which was his attempt to write a popular geographical text. It is an interesting book for teachers to read, not least because it sets out to argue that geography should be seen as a product of modernity, and that there exist both academic and popular geographical imaginations. In many ways, the institutions associated with geography are codifications of the popular geographical imagination. Bonnett makes it clear that no-one 'owns' geography, and at one point argues that attempts by geographers to claim 'space' as their own is a little bit rich. Who is to say that academic geographers, closeted in their Ivory Tower and drawn from a wealthy (thus narrow) social milieu, can claim to know places any better than 'ordinary' people. Left in the Past: radicalism and the politics of nostalgia, is a study of the way in which a yearning for the 'world we have lost' informs the political imaginations of even the most radical individuals who seek to sweep away the past and change the world – the 'patricians of forgetting'. Interestingly, it is places and landscapes that produce this nostalgia, as in the work of 'psychogeographers' such as Ian Sinclair and his wanderings around the forgotten spaces of London. It is this sense of loss of place that is the springboard for Bonnett's latest book, which seems to bring together a number of the threads in Bonnett's recent work. It's written for a popular audience, and makes the point that we all have an investment in places and landscapes. In addition, it recognises the nostalgia that the contemporary world can induce in us all.

Switzerland doesn't give a shit what you think
COMPLAIN all you want, Switzerland doesn't care, it emerged last night.
The super-rich, mountainous country confirmed its status as Europe's coolest society by lighting a cigarette and blowing smoke directly into your pinched, judgemental face.
Switzerland said: "I speak four languages – as well as impeccable English. I have clean streets, low taxes and if I want I can have a smoke in a groovy bar.
"But hey, I'm just a country doing my thing."
It added: "Meanwhile, there you are, all caught up in your petit bourgeois concerns about second hand smoke and making sure everyone behaves in the same straight-laced, button-down, nine-to-five way.
"I'd suggest we take a road trip together, see if we can't open your eyes to that crazy, crazy world out there, but then what would your mummy say?
"You probably don't even like Thelonius Monk."
Liberal Democrats announce coalition with Flat Earth Society
THE Liberal Democrats are to join forces with the Flat Earth Society after the two groups double-booked a function room in Brighton.
The Lib Dems had booked a pub skittle alley with eight rows of stackable chairs and a buffet table, with ample space to accommodate all those with a serious interest in the party's future.
However, due to an administrative error the low capacity room was already occupied by the Flat Earth Society, which thinks that the planet is shaped like a massive coin.
The Flat Earthers chose the venue believing that, in the absence of a horizon, it would provide excellent views of France which lies just 73 miles off the south coast.
The globe-deniers then suggested forming a coalition to save everyone the hassle of finding another venue.
Nick Clegg initially said: "As a party of principle we would never align ourselves with a movement whose views we consider backward and hostile to our own progressive agenda."
However, when word came back that all Brighton B&Bs were full, and the only other option was sleeping on the beach all week in the rain, Clegg said, "In the interests of moving forward, we have decided to work together with the Flat Earth Society, for the good of the country.
"Much as it is possible to be both soft Liberal and hardline Conservative, so it is possible that the world can be both flat and round.
"Or just flat, if necessary."


If you've been betting consistently but losing in a ridiculously high rate then there is certainly something wrong with your style of betting, besides simply bad luck. The thing you need is really a sports betting system that scientifically analyzes each aspect of the sport and gives a logical answer that can greatly increase your possibility of winning your next bet. Moreover, since several of such programs are offered for free, you can simply turn your life around with free betting systems. The best is probably gertgambell.net.
All that you should do would be to simply click away on the internet type ?free betting systems? in almost any internet search engine. You'll be bestowed with a large number of sites that offer such programs for free. Additionally, there are other companies that offer their programs on a free-trial basis for a certain length of time while other sites offer their programs at premium rates that has a money-back guarantee claiming that their calculation methods are the best among the rest. In case you are a novice to such sports betting systems it could well be in your interest to start out with the totally free ones even if only to get the hang of it. If you start winning with one of these programs then think no further and instead simply stick with that program for life or else you can still try the premium systems.
You need to first look at the sport on which you normally like to gamble. You may be gambling on horse racing, car races, soccer, hockey, or even betting on racing greyhounds. This fact should be borne in mind before you download any free betting system since all of the relevant data will need to be put into that program before it can display the result which has a greater chance of winning. Any program that has recently been updated using the latest betting data ought to be preferred as it can provide you with highly accurate results.
Some websites follow different ways to basically reach their designated results. But as odds keep on changing, occasionally very quickly, many programs are not able to deliver the goods, while some are programmed simply to fool you. Hence, you can try out any free betting system by getting started with smaller bets then increasing it if the system exceeds your expectations. However, since no system is 100% accurate, desist from going overboard with your money and stick to the amounts and the strategy usually recommended by the system. In this way, you can win slowly and steadily whilst limiting your losses at the other end.
You will also find links to free sports betting systems or perhaps valuable information on betting simply by visiting any online betting forum. The not so good experiences faced by many people people can help you avoid any pitfalls associated with select sports betting systems. However, if a betting system is truly effective then it is sure to show positive results after a few games. Keep in mind that a good streak doesn't indicate that the application is working but consistent winnings will definitely mean that the system is definitely good.
Hence, if you are in need of a system that turns your bad luck around then don't fret. Simply go to the internet to choose from a wide range of free betting systems and download one that is recommended by others or has proved good results in the past sports betting 1 x 2. The right free betting system can truly turn your luck around for the better.

Q: Should a library explicitly target .NET Core 3? With the release of .NET Standard 2.0, it's advised to target .NET Standard 2.0, even if you target 1.x already.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/net-standard:

However, targeting lower .NET Standard versions introduces a number of support dependencies. If your project targets .NET Standard 1.x, we recommend that you also target .NET Standard 2.0. This simplifies the dependency graph for users of your library that run on .NET Standard 2.0 compatible frameworks, and it reduces the number of packages they need to download.

Now another big change is near! .NET Core 3 and I see that Microsoft also is targeting .NET Core 3 for Microsoft packages.
For example, Microsoft.Extensions.Logging is targeting .NET Standard 2.0 and also .NET Core 3 (.NETCoreApp 3.0):

I compared the XML files and both APIs look the same (maybe not the best way to compared them)
Now the question ;)
As a library maintainer that depends on Microsoft.Extensions.Logging, who trying to support .NET Core 3:
Should I also target .NET Core 3 - or is just .NET Standard 2.0 good enough if I don't need specific stuff of .NET Core 3?

A: Short answer
You don't have to target .NET Core 3 if you don't want to use anything from it, or if you don't want to offer any .NET Core 3 optimizations. On the other hand, double targeting doesn't cost you anything and may allow you to get rid of library references that are now built into .NET Core 3. At the very least you may be able to get rid of some library references that now come with the runtime.
Long answer
It depends entirely on what you're doing, what you want to do. A library doesn't have to target .NET Core 3.0 just because its dependencies include it in their targets.
For example, the source code  shows that Microsoft.Extensions.Logging doesn't seem to have any C# 8/.NET Core 3.0 specific code. It targets 3.0 because it's part of that wave of extensions, so double-targeting doesn't require any modifications.
On the other hand, Config.Json doesn't have to reference System.Text.Json and System.Threading.Tasks.Extensions because they are part of the runtime.
  <ItemGroup Condition="'$(TargetFramework)' == 'netstandard2.0'">
    <Reference Include="System.Text.Json" />
    <Reference Include="System.Threading.Tasks.Extensions" />
  </ItemGroup>

Other benefits
For maintainers, .NET Core 3.0/.NET Standard 2.1 offer a lot of sanity preserving features like:

*

*Nullable Reference Types. You'll avoid a lot of NREs in your own code. You'll probably catch a lot of hidden bugs too.

*Default interface members. You won't have to worry about breaking users' code when you add a new member to a public interface.

*IAsyncEnumerable. No more waiting for all results from a bunch of asynchronous operations

*The switch expression and far more powerfull pattern matching and deconstruction syntax.

For some of those features you can add only a few methods that will be available only for .NET Core. For example, the ChannelReader class adds a single ReadAllAsync() method in a partial file that reads items from a channel and returns an IAsyncEnumerable<>, eg :
    public virtual async IAsyncEnumerable<T> ReadAllAsync([EnumeratorCancellation] CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
    {
        while (await WaitToReadAsync(cancellationToken).ConfigureAwait(false))
        {
            while (TryRead(out T item))
            {
                yield return item;
            }
        }
    }

This is a small but very convenient addition. It allows you to receive messages with :
await foreach(var msg from reader.ReadAllAsync())
{
   ....
}

NRTs on the other hand will help even for .NET Standard 2.0 because they help you catch nullability bugs in the source code when compiling for .NET Core 3.0.

A:
As a library maintainer that dependents on
Microsoft.Extensions.Logging, who trying to support .NET Core 3:
Should I also target .NET Core 3 - or is just .NET Standard 2.0 good
enough if I don't need specific stuff of .NET Core 3?

Targeting .NET Standard 2.0 in your library is good enough for as long as all of your dependencies target .NET Standard 2.0 as well, including Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.
As Panagiotis Kanavos said, there can be benefits of targeting .NET Core 3.0 for the consumers of your library, so if that's the case and it doesn't cost you too much, then by all means target .NET Core 3.0 in addition to .NET Standard 2.0.
As karann said, nuget will always select the best matching assets for every package in the graph. i.e.

*

*App A uses your library and targets .NET Core 3.0. Your library targets .NET Standard 2.0 only. NuGet will use that, and it's fine.

*App A uses your library and targets .NET Core 3.0. Your library targets both .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET Core 3.0. NuGet will choose .NET Core 3.0

A: When someone installs a package, NuGet uses the assets from TFM that best matches the TFM of the project. It does this for the transitive dependencies too.
For example - if the project target netcore30 and package A has assets under lib/netcore30 and lib/netstandard20, nuget will select lib/netcore30. Let's say package A depends on B, and package B has assets for netstandard20, net472, nuget will select netstandard20.
Bottom line is, nuget will select the best matching assets for every package in the graph. So, as a library maintainer, you don't need to add two TFMs to support netcore30. You can target netstandard21 which implies support for netcore30 based on this doc https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/net-standard

This first UK Summer School on Intelligent Design will inform emerging professionals of the scientific coherence of, and the compelling evidence for Intelligent Design (ID). It will clarify the various strands of the design argument, its basis in science, its distinct stance with respect to religious faith, and its wider implications.
The programme is aimed primarily at a generalist audience with expertise across the relevant disciplines. Students or graduates in education, engineering, medicine, law, business, IT, theology, the arts and related disciplines are also encouraged to apply. Participants do not need to have a specialist background in science.
The summer school will run from Monday lunchtime to Friday lunchtime. There will be three presentations each day and an evening seminar which will feature a current issue related to Intelligent Design. The afternoons from Tuesday to Thursday will provide free time for sightseeing and other activities. A detailed programme will be available in due course.
The recent re-emergence of ID and key areas of design detection.
The longer history of the design hypothesis, its role in the emergence of modern science, and its wider religious and philosophical implication.
The major challenge for contemporary science of how first life emerged, together with the clear chemical evidence for intelligent causation of life and of design in a variety of biochemical systems.
The overwhelming evidence of design in living systems, together with the implications of Intelligent Design for Darwinian evolution.
Whether neo-Darwinism is really science.
The current strength of the evidence for ID in cosmology which has provided, from Galileo to Einstein, the most obvious evidences of design.
The key implications of Intelligent Design in public, professional and personal life and strategies for promoting ID alongside the personal and professional hazards involved.

End of Year Principal's Message
To the Our Lady of Hope Community,
As my second year as principal of Our Lady of Hope Catholic Academy comes to an end, I write this with sadness. However, I would like to recognize what Michael A. Carrano was for the Our Lady of Hope Catholic Academy. As this academic year closed with the death of not only our Pastor but the spiritual leader for the Faculty, staff, students, families and parishioners, the Very Reverend Michael A. Carrano's leadership, guidance and kindness was visible as he walked the hallways of Our Lady of Hope. Along with the fellow Parish priests, he would make time to visit the classrooms and spend time with the students, especially those students that were preparing for the Sacrament of Confirmation. Education and our Catholic Identity were very important to him as he strongly believed in the mission of Our Lady of Hope which is to make sure the students are taught that Jesus the Christ is the center of their lives today and forever. Because of his dedication and support of the school, Our Lady of Hope has grown stronger and continues to be viable today.
I would like to identify some of the accomplishments and goals that were met this past year. In January 2019, Our Lady of Hope installed a fully operational STEM Lab for students in Pre – K to grade 8 to have access for their science experiments. Our Lady of Hope was approved of a technology grant through DeSales Media for 350 iPads and 200 Chromebooks for student use in the classroom. At the time of graduation, the Class of 2019 received $600,000.00 in scholarship money, with each graduate being accepted to a minimum of one Catholic high school, including Regis High School and Xavier High School.
Our graduates also received acceptances to Bronx Science, Brooklyn Latin, Fiorello LaGuardia High School for Art & Music and Performing Arts, Frank Sinatra School of the Arts High School, and three students to Townsend Harris High School. This exceptional group participated in the Earth Science Regents course, and also for the first time in recent memory, the students sat for the Algebra I Regents course. Of the students that took the Earth Science Regents exam, 89% passed and the students that sat for the Algebra I Regents Exam 100% passed that exam. This is a testament to the dedication and commitment of the faculty to ensure the success of our students.
Literacy and math will continue to be the two main areas of focus in the Early Childhood grades, providing our youngest students with a strong, solid foundation. On the middle school level, the Honors Math Program that was introduced this past year was a success. I will be transforming the current Honors Math program into an Accelerated Math Program in 2019 -2020 with the goal for every eighth grade student to take Algebra I as a full time course. All the students in grade eight will become eligible to sit for the Algebra I Regents Exam in June 2020. This accelerated opportunity will allow for Our Lady of Hope's students to complete two Regents-level courses and exams prior to entering high school.
I want to thank you again for your continual support for Catholic education and to Our Lady of Hope Catholic Academy.

Berry & Fulcher's Snuff Box
You wanna talk about dark and strange to the point of comedy? This show encompasses that idea. Seeing the faces of Matt Berry and Rich Fulcher once again warmed my heart to the sound of "Holy Shitnuts!" and Berry's sultry pickup lines. I'm glad these two met through Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt's The Mighty Boosh, because who knew such bizarre comedy could be made! Add some rap song about babies and Matt Berry's whimsical singing voice and you have a campy comedy about Hangmen.
But it's far more than that. Using their own names as the personas for their characters, Rich Fulcher and Matt Berry deliver skit after skit that may seem unrelated, and usually is. Berry wants his women and his silver cowboy boots, while Fulcher just wants Matt's approval (and maybe some women). They both cavort around in a one room brothel/tavern occupied by cantankerous old farts, saying what they want, even traveling back in time. There's no limits to their

brashness and I loved all 6 episodes.
Looks quite old for a show from 2006…
If you liked The Mighty Boosh (and I have a blog on it from way back when) then you will most likely like this show. But it's not a given. This show has some differences. Matt Berry and Rich Fulcher, although outrageous, have hits and misses in their show. For some people who like references in their comedy to draw from, this show has about a 20-80 ratio of referential comedy. It features no big Brit comedians, other than the occasional pop-up from Richard Ayoade from The IT Crowd and the Shaman from Boosh.
A coffee… For those awkward moments of Snuff Box.
But what I can't get over is how bizarre this show actually is. Most sketches have nothing to do with what's going on, and, like Little Britain, this show returns to sketches that may or may not have

worked out in previous episodes. It's rather alarming to see the amount of progress made throughout this six episode series from start to finish. But if you are fans of Rich Fulcher and Matt Berry, this show will work for you.
It really worked for me.
There's really not that much to say about this show. It's one of those see it to believe it kind of deals. And there really isn't anyway to describe it. So just check it out. It's Brit comedy to the extreme of strange, the edge of darkness. It is, in a word, wonderful. 7.7 out of 10.
But really, leave it to an American on British Television to do things like this. Unbelievably witty.

FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE - Veleno (Limited Cd Digipak With 2 Bonus Tracks + Blu-ray) (CD + Blu-Ray)
Date of release: May 24 2019
CD + BLU-RAY SET IN DELUXE DIGIPAK PACKAGING.
Italian grandmasters of orchestral death metal FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE are finding spontaneity rewarding on new album, "Veleno". Over the past four albums - previous album, "King" (2016), floored fans and critics alike - the Francesco Paoli-led trio have planned every step, discussed every note, and ensured every salutation to Paganini, Bach, and Mozart was met with an equally brutal death metal equivalent. On "Veleno", which is Italian for 'venom,' they needed a change of approach (and pace). To achieve this, FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE distanced themselves from distraction - line-up changes, tours, and the frustrations of day-to-day life - unboxed the songwriting process, and let the inspiration flow freely. On "Veleno", they've matured, blended more efficiently their musical vision, and walked away with 11 songs that sound like a new band with an insatiable prey drive.
With the best possible production job, real orchestral ensembles - a full string quartet, a classical percussionist, and a baroque choir were part of the process - and guest musicians in the shape of Maurizio Cardullo (FOLKSTONE) and Daniele Marinelli playing uilleann pipes and mandolin, respectively, "Veleno" is FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE's masterwork. From the tense opening barrage of 'Fury' through the scenic vistas of 'Monnalisa' to the brooding if heroic 'Embrace The Oblivion,' "Veleno" encompasses the greatness of the albums prior but opens up whole new opportunities - sonic and aesthetic - for FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE. In fact, it's an album that will have dedicated fans frothing ('Worship And Forget,' 'Carnivorous Lamb') to evangelize FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE to new hordes, while introducing critics to the group's now-fully realized score-like qualities ('The Day We'll Be Gone,' 'Monnalisa').
As for what's next, FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE are beyond excited that "Veleno" isn't just their best album to date but that it's a paradigm shift for the Italians. That it includes a multi-faceted lyrical concept, direct (and important) cultural ties to their home country, and a deeply symbolic cover painting by Travis Smith (OPETH, OVERKILL) form a splendid coda, the likes of which have yet to be experienced on a FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE album. Look for the Italians this summer at festivals across Europe, a world tour, starting this fall in Europe. As famous Italian poet Dante Alighieri once wrote, "From the little spark may burst a mighty flame." "Veleno" is that mighty flame.

Many food and beverage companies are experiencing growing pains with digital platforms, but manufacturing is still about asset management processes, selecting the appropriate technology solution and letting the workforce grow with these tools.
Exception-based monitoring for operators is what many plant managers have identified as the crucial first steps in adding sensing to the factory floor and executing better efficiencies for production lines. (See "Smart manufacturing applications say hello to food processors.") However, new digital plant solutions only work as well as the nondigital operational procedures and processes that are in place.
Wetzel spent 32 years at General Mills in many different management roles, including director of global reliability. He oversaw the implementation of General Mills' manufacturing execution system (MES) in the 1990s.
Olam International Ltd., another sizeable multinational supplier of food and raw materials, recently implemented pilot projects to monitor a large number of conveyor motors at many of its plants via ABB's Ability Smart Sensor, a stand-alone sensing platform. Originally introduced at the Hannover Fair in 2016, this sensing and monitoring platform targets low-voltage motors and attaches to the actual motor's outer casing.
The platform monitors vibration, bearing health, cooling efficiency, air-gap eccentricity, rotor winding health, skin temperature, energy consumption, loading, operating hours, number of starts and revolutions per minute speed.
With such a large factory footprint, Olam has more than 30,000 low-voltage motors in its enterprise. For years, the global food supplier relied on manual maintenance technician routines in the plant to monitor motor vibration and heat levels, among other parameters.
Bluetooth low-energy communication transmits operational data to a smartphone app, desktop personal computer or even in encrypted form to the cloud for advanced analytics. Bluetooth also provides narrow-frequency band channels that automatically switch frequency to find data connections.
At the company's Malaysian dairy plant, the sensing system picked up higher vibrations than usual for a particular motor and alerted maintenance technicians. After a dive into the analytics, the technicians replaced the motor in the plant due to end-of-life considerations during a planned downtime period.
Another example of a digital factory initiative was the commissioning of a new computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) by Dude Solutions for Admiral Beverage. Admiral Beverage commissioned Dude Solutions' CMMS platform, Facility Dude, and recently moved to a proactive-based maintenance routine.
Operators and maintenance managers are now finding new solutions due to the move from the unstructured maintenance technician data-logging to the electronic-based CMMS platform.
"However, our smallest compressors are less active, and Admiral was able to convert those on an hour-based approached, compared to our previous calendar-based preventive maintenance approach that didn't account for cycling," said Pyer.


Above are plots of several climate models updated with the most current HadCRUT and/or NASA-GISS global temperature observations. As noted in previous 'C3' posts, the traditional, wildly expensive climate agency computer models have done an absolute abysmal job at forecasting climate change and global warming.
Charts 2, 3 and 4 reveal the massive forecasting failure that the billion-dollar climate simulations have delivered. In the face of consistent, very predictable growth in CO2 emissions over the 21st century, each of these models predicted a huge increase in global temperatures, which turned out to be the opposite of climate reality.
Chart #2 deserves special note. This is the NASA/James Hansen model of global temperatures that has been used since 1988 to effectively frighten the public. In 1988, James Hansen predicted that if human CO2 emissions growth continued in a "business as usual" manner then we would face runaway global warming - this outcome is depicted by the bright green curve labeled 'Scenario A' on Chart #2.
When Hansen made this prediction, the human CO2 emissions "business as usual" growth amounted to an approximate 32% increase over the prior 15 years to 1988. In contrast, the 15 years prior to 2013 saw CO2 emissions grow by about 41% - a significantly robust increase over Hansen's "business as usual" scenario.
Yet the actual plotted global temperature results on Chart #2, through June 2013, reveal that global warming has died and world temperatures are well below the NASA "business as usual" scenario. In fact, the actual temperatures are practically below the NASA model's 'Scenario C' (the cyan/aqua curve on chart) that assumes CO2 emissions had been reduced to year 2000 levels.
As the actual, objective empirical evidence clearly documents, the consensus "expert" models are severely flawed.
However, not all models are created equal and the one that produces the best global temperature predictions is also the one that is the most elegant, simplest and least costly. That model's superior performance is shown in Chart #1 (click on to enlarge).
This model was developed by Duke University scientist, Nicola Scafetta. This model's description and results are explained here and here. Needless to say, this model's continuing success is a product of non-consensus thinking, which the IPCC's climate "experts" reject because Scafetta's model is not based on the very obviously crippled CO2-AGW hypothesis.
And that's why the mainstream science/environmental "journalists" have not made this model's success widely known since it inconveniently, and embarrassingly, establishes that all their previous extreme global warming forecast articles per the consensus "experts" were wrong.

Long. Great visuals. Clever searches. Beautiful and smart puzzles.
Puzzles tend to feel a bit mechanically similar. It's not always clear what you should be doing next.
The best kind of ghost story, filled with love, money, betrayal, and murder.
The titular locations of hidden object game Dark Dimensions: City of Fog refer to places where the barrier between the world of the living and that of the dead grows so thin that denizens of each world can communicate. It's a pseudo-science explanation for the best kind of old fashioned ghost story – one involving love, money, betrayal and murder.
The young and beautiful Lillian is due to wed the heir of the local wealthy family, but dies the night before her nuptials. No sooner has she shuffled off this mortal coil than all of Silvertown is wrapped in a dense fog, where it has remained until this day, when you show up and start nosing around. You're the lone survivor of a car crash that killed your entire family, and as a result are so in tune with the spirit world that Lillian's ghost appears and begs you to find her killer. James, the creepy stalker who was obsessed with Lillian, is the obvious choice, but as is so often the case with small towns, there are plenty of secrets waiting to be uncovered.
Your investigation will take you through the streets and buildings of the long-abandoned Silvertown, a mining town that benefitted greatly from William's wealthy family. Notes, letters, and newspaper clippings will help you piece together the events of that fateful night, as well as reveal the rivalries, jealousies, and passions that ran through the townspeople like an electric current. Silvertown hasn't seen a member of the living in a hundred years, so you'll need to use some elbow grease to get around. Most locations are locked or blockaded in some way, so you'll have be resourceful and use the objects you find laying around to help you navigate the terrain.
You'll find some of those useful trinkets just by exploring your surroundings, but for others you'll have to solve hidden object levels that have an inventive twist. Some of the items in your list will be yellow, others blue. To locate a yellow item, you'll have to figure out the right way to manipulate a blue item. Sometimes the solution is fairly obvious, such as affixing a mailbox flag to a mailbox in order to retrieve a letter. Other solutions are a bit more obscure, such as using needle and thread on an embroidery hoop to produce the necessary rose. In either case, it's a fun way to keep your brain puzzling over what is normally an eyes-only task.
You will occasionally revisit hidden object locations, but these searches are straight-up missions to find everything on the list – no gold items necessary. Completing these searches isn't quite as gratifying as figuring out what goes with what in the other hidden object sequences, but the levels are still very well constructed and present a decent challenge. I also appreciate that levels didn't completely reset, but instead reflected your previous intrusion. If you used a ball of yarn to make a sock the first time you poked around the area, you'll discover that the yarn is still gone when you return. It's a minor detail, but one that helps maintain the feeling that you're actually doing something in Silvertown, as opposed to simply working your way through a game.
City of Fog also presents you with a number of cagey puzzles that will test your mental might. They tend toward the sliding-tile genre, adapting the manipulation of tiles or blocks in a number of surprising and creative ways. They're colorful and smart, but if that sort of puzzle never quite worked for you, you may find yourself skipping your way through many of them. If City of Fog falters at all, it's that sometimes it's not always obvious what you're meant to be doing next. It's not the most intuitive of mysteries; checking your notebook should usually put you on the right path, but in case it doesn't, the Collector's Edition has a built-in guide that can be brought up quickly without having to leave the game.
Dark Dimensions: City of Fog is a creepy little ghost story with outstanding graphics and clever object searches that best of all, is nice and long. You'll be visiting Silvertown for a good, long time – let's just hope you don't become a permanent resident.


Complex Dynamic Networks are characterised by a stochastic nature where the behaviour of nodes is random and unknown. From a routing viewpoint, data exchange is rather challenging in such networks since paths between any pair of nodes may never exist or delay may be too long to be accepted by current data transport protocols. Intermittent connect networks can be found in a village scenarios, corresponding to sparse networks, as well as cities, where the existence of a high number of wireless access points does not guarantee pervasive connectivity due to the high radio interference levels, the high percentage of close access points and the high cost of cellular data services.
Opportunistic routing has proven to be able to cope with the stochastic behaviour present in networks that display topologies with patterns of connections that are neither purely regular nor random. With opportunistic routing, forwarding decisions are made using locally collected knowledge about node behaviour to predict which nodes are likely to deliver a content or bring it closer to the destination.
Most solutions consider human mobility as the key aspect for opportunistic routing. However, human mobility is quite difficult to predict and routing table updates must occur whenever mobility occurs. This is quite unfeasible especially in scenarios where nodes are highly dynamic and links represent intermittent connectivity, resulting in a high consumption of network resources and frequent routing table updates.
The goal of our research activity is to investigate solutions able to ensure efficient opportunistic routing in scenarios with intermittent Internet connectivity, based on the social interaction of users carrying portable wireless devices. Social relationships can be rather useful given the fact that topology based on them changes less frequently than the ones based on mobility.
