The Trump-supporting preacher, who has been a key figure in the GOP nominee's black 'outreach,' falsely claimed he graduated college and served in the military.
Donald Trump only surrounds himself with the best people.
The night before CNN aired a bombshell interview exposing he falsified numerous portions of the bio on his website, Pastor Mark Burns released a statement apologizing that he "overstated several details." On Saturday morning, the interview, conducted by New Day host Victor Blackwell, was aired and it revealed that the Trump-supporting preacher walked out after he was upset that Blackwell had pulled the curtain back on his facade.
When Blackwell first broached the subject, asking Burns about his false claim that he was a member of the predominately black fraternity Kappa Alpha Psi, the preacher tried one of the oldest tricks in the book — he said the website was hacked.
"No, this is from my page. But what I'm saying is, obviously this has been manipulated or either hacked or added," Burns responded to Blackwell's question on whether or not this was on his website's bio. As CNN noted, the site's host stated that no hack had occurred.
Things just went downhill from there for the pastor. When confronted with his claim that he served six years in the US Army Reserves, Burns first said that was accurate. After Blackwell pointed out that the Army showed no records of his service, the Trump surrogate waffled, saying that he actually served in the South Carolina National Guard, not the Army Reserves. Per CNN's fact-check, Burns served in the National Guard for four years.
But Blackwell wasn't done. According to Burns' bio, he had graduated with a Bachelor of Science from North Greenville University. However, he only attended for one semester. When the CNN host confronted Burns with the facts, he was met with silence. At this point, Burns started whining that he thought this interview was "off the record," despite the cameras, lights, microphones and professional backdrop.
Remember, Donald Trump only surrounds himself with the best people.

/*********************************************************************************************
Stubs that contain code are all part of larger structs called Holders.  There is a
Holder for each kind of stub, i.e XXXStub is contained with XXXHolder.  Holders are
essentially an implementation trick that allowed rearranging the code sequences more
easily while trying out different alternatives, and for dealing with any alignment
issues in a way that was mostly immune to the actually code sequences.  These Holders
should be revisited when the stub code sequences are fixed, since in many cases they
add extra space to a stub that is not really needed.

Stubs are placed in cache and hash tables.  Since unaligned access of data in memory
is very slow, the keys used in those tables should be aligned.  The things used as keys
typically also occur in the generated code, e.g. a token as an immediate part of an instruction.
For now, to avoid alignment computations as different code strategies are tried out, the key
fields are all in the Holders.  Eventually, many of these fields should be dropped, and the instruction
streams aligned so that the immediate fields fall on aligned boundaries.

/*LookupStub**************************************************************************************
Virtual and interface call sites are initially setup to point at LookupStubs.
This is because the runtime type of the <this> pointer is not yet known,
so the target cannot be resolved.  Note: if the jit is able to determine the runtime type
of the <this> pointer, it should be generating a direct call not a virtual or interface call.
This stub pushes a lookup token onto the stack to identify the sought after method, and then
jumps into the EE (VirtualCallStubManager::ResolveWorkerStub) to effectuate the lookup and
transfer of control to the appropriate target method implementation, perhaps patching of the call site
along the way to point to a more appropriate stub.  Hence callsites that point to LookupStubs
get quickly changed to point to another kind of stub.

/*DispatchStub**************************************************************************************
Monomorphic and mostly monomorphic call sites eventually point to DispatchStubs.
A dispatch stub has an expected type (expectedMT), target address (target) and fail address (failure).
If the calling frame does in fact have the <this> type be of the expected type, then
control is transfered to the target address, the method implementation.  If not,
then control is transfered to the fail address, a fail stub (see below) where a polymorphic
lookup is done to find the correct address to go to.

implementation note: Order, choice of instructions, and branch directions
should be carefully tuned since it can have an inordinate effect on performance.  Particular
attention needs to be paid to the effects on the BTB and branch prediction, both in the small
and in the large, i.e. it needs to run well in the face of BTB overflow--using static predictions.
Note that since this stub is only used for mostly monomorphic callsites (ones that are not, get patched
to something else), therefore the conditional jump "jne failure" is mostly not taken, and hence it is important
that the branch prediction staticly predict this, which means it must be a forward jump.  The alternative
is to reverse the order of the jumps and make sure that the resulting conditional jump "je implTarget"
is statically predicted as taken, i.e a backward jump. The current choice was taken since it was easier
to control the placement of the stubs than control the placement of the jitted code and the stubs. */

since lookups in it are fairly rare.  Efficiency of the cache is paramount since it is accessed frequently
o(see ResolveStub below).  Currently we are storing both of these fields in the DispatchHolder to simplify
alignment issues.  If inlineMT in the stub itself was aligned, then it could be the expectedMT field.
While the token field can be logically gotten by following the failure target to the failEntryPoint
of the ResolveStub and then to the token over there, for perf reasons of cache access, it is duplicated here.
This allows us to use DispatchStubs in the cache.  The alternative is to provide some other immutable struct
for the cache composed of the triplet (expectedMT, token, target) and some sort of reclaimation scheme when
they are thrown out of the cache via overwrites (since concurrency will make the obvious approaches invalid).

does what we want, see notes in implementation of VirtualCallStubManager::Resolver, we are
using dispatch stubs to siumulate what we want.  That means that inlineTarget, which should be immutable
is in fact written.  Hence we have moved target out into the holder and aligned it so we can
atomically update it.  When we get a resolver function that does what we want, we can drop this field,
and live with just the inlineTarget field in the stub itself, since immutability will hold.*/

/*ResolveStub**************************************************************************************
Polymorphic call sites and monomorphic calls that fail end up in a ResolverStub.  There is only
one resolver stub built for any given token, even though there may be many call sites that
use that token and many distinct <this> types that are used in the calling call frames.  A resolver stub
actually has two entry points, one for polymorphic call sites and one for dispatch stubs that fail on their
expectedMT test.  There is a third part of the resolver stub that enters the ee when a decision should
be made about changing the callsite.  Therefore, we have defined the resolver stub as three distinct pieces,
even though they are actually allocated as a single contiguous block of memory.  These pieces are:

A ResolveStub has two entry points:

FailEntry - where the dispatch stub goes if the expected MT test fails.  This piece of the stub does
a check to see how often we are actually failing. If failures are frequent, control transfers to the
patch piece to cause the call site to be changed from a mostly monomorphic callsite
(calls dispatch stub) to a polymorphic callsize (calls resolve stub).  If failures are rare, control
transfers to the resolve piece (see ResolveStub).  The failEntryPoint decrements a counter
every time it is entered.  The ee at various times will add a large chunk to the counter.

ResolveEntry - does a lookup via in a cache by hashing the actual type of the calling frame s
<this> and the token identifying the (contract,method) pair desired.  If found, control is transfered
to the method implementation.  If not found in the cache, the token is pushed and the ee is entered via
the ResolveWorkerStub to do a full lookup and eventual transfer to the correct method implementation.  Since
there is a different resolve stub for every token, the token can be inlined and the token can be pre-hashed.
The effectiveness of this approach is highly sensitive to the effectiveness of the hashing algorithm used,
as well as its speed.  It turns out it is very important to make the hash function sensitive to all
of the bits of the method table, as method tables are laid out in memory in a very non-random way.  Before
making any changes to the code sequences here, it is very important to measure and tune them as perf
can vary greatly, in unexpected ways, with seeming minor changes.

Implementation note - Order, choice of instructions, and branch directions
should be carefully tuned since it can have an inordinate effect on performance.  Particular
attention needs to be paid to the effects on the BTB and branch prediction, both in the small
and in the large, i.e. it needs to run well in the face of BTB overflow--using static predictions.
Note that this stub is called in highly polymorphic cases, but the cache should have been sized
and the hash function chosen to maximize the cache hit case.  Hence the cmp/jcc instructions should
mostly be going down the cache hit route, and it is important that this be statically predicted as so.
Hence the 3 jcc instrs need to be forward jumps.  As structured, there is only one jmp/jcc that typically
gets put in the BTB since all the others typically fall straight thru.  Minimizing potential BTB entries
is important. */

I'm not sure if I'll be able to keep up the pace of reviewing two movies for every Graveyard Shift, but since Village of the Damned and Children of the Damned are presented as a DVD double feature, I kind of couldn't resist. In many ways, these films are incredibly similar, so you almost don't need to see both of them in order to get their point, but the differences between the two, with only four years between them, are also pretty fascinating. But the biggest, and most interesting, problem with these two films is that there is no way they will frighten the contemporary horror viewer, but they are a curious time capsule of the fears of the early 1960s and their influence on later narratives is indelible.
By far the superior film in all ways but one, Village of the Damned opens in a quaint British town where one afternoon all of the denizens mysteriously pass out. Government officials are able to quarantine the area, drawing a line around the infected environs, but just as quickly as the problem is contained, the slumbering citizens awaken, seemingly unaffected. It isn't until two months later that local doctors discover that all of the women of the town who are able to bear children are now pregnant, despite many a protestation of the impossible, all seemingly tied to that exact inexplicable occurrence. When the children are born—all early, and all of an incredibly high birth weight—they are all blond with intensely creepy blue eyes, and even more mysteriously, a sort of hive mind: if one of them learns something, then all of them know it without having it explained. These children bond to each other, blocking out all attempts from other children to disrupt their circle, and the citizens of the town become increasingly afraid of them as horrible incidents begin to pile up.
Children of the Damned never refers to the incidents of the previous film, so it seems best to assume that the events are unconnected or take place in different filmic worlds, despite the fact that the story is so very similar: six children, from different parts of the world, are discovered to have incredibly high intelligence, and are brought together in London to be studied. They form an instant bond, of the same sort of connected thinking and shared memory seen in Village despite the fact that they come from vastly different places. They escape, taking one of the children's "aunt" hostage, and hide out in an abandoned church. When attempts are made to separate them or interact with them, tensions mount towards devastating ends.
While this story doesn't share the beautiful pacing or the tight plotting of its predecessor, it is much more visually interesting; Village, released the same year as Hitchcock's Psycho, feels incredibly old-fashioned in style, but Children has some gorgeous shots and despite being only four years younger, feels almost contemporary in its visuals and structure. But stylistic elements aside, both films are so obviously allegories of the spread of Communism, it is easy to understand why both were so successful upon release, despite landing on different judgments of the children by their ends. In Village, there are many other places where similar instances have affected people, but most of the children produced in those places were destroyed, and the inscrutable nature of the children, which is presented as an inhuman stoicism and intensity, becomes part of their biggest threat: they look like us, but they can read our minds, make us do things we don't want to do, and containing them—even destroying them—seems to be the only way to save humanity. At one point, it is even thought that they might be an alien race, sent to take over the world, and these are exactly the narratives driving much of the containment culture (not to mention almost all of the popular culture) surrounding reactions to Communism produced at this time. The ending especially, wherein the one person trying to understand these children, must close his mind to their probing in order to have a shot at resistance, is built upon the fears of brainwashing and mental manipulation that pervaded a culture terrified of the Communist threat.
Children, on the other hand, never exactly settles on what the significance of the genius children are to society at large; it is discovered that they are in fact human, but so far advanced from us that our relationship to them is unknowable. Because they are so closed off from the people around them, almost completely unable to communicate with them, they seem to pose a genuine threat, but at every turn, caution is urged in all interactions despite the many authority figures who wish to see the kids destroyed before they can hurt anyone. While Village is more traditionally concerned with containing the threat the children pose, Children seems to argue that more caution, more understanding, and more care should be taken to prevent violence from escalating.
Both films clock in at less than 90 minutes and are fun time capsules of 1960s horror—not only that, but their influences, including Stephen King's Children of the Corn, are widespread. Though they might not terrify you today, they are provocative discussions of the fears at a particular Western historical moment, the acting is solid across the board, and they help set the stage for the horror revolution that takes place in the 1970s.

Q: How to spawn random images from the middle of the screen to anywhere? I am curious if it is possible to fire images from the middle of the screen, to anywhere on the screen with a random speed.
It is important that it will be done without files containing .sks, since Xcode is crashing when I try opening that kind of files. It has to be done in a UIViewController.
I already tried subclassing a view to a SKView but without success. Looking at existing projects always uses SKViews and files containing .sks which I can not open. I hope somebody can help me out!

A: Each of the images you need to "fire" should be an SKSpriteNode. They should be children of a SKScene. If you don't know how to create a SKScene or how to make the view controller present it, try creating a sample game project in Xcode - File > New Project > Game. It would create a nice sample project that would display some nice rectangles whenever you touch the screen.
Once you have your scene up and running, as well as your sprite nodes ready to fire, simply run these few lines for every node you need to fire from the middle of the screen:
let viewSize = UIScreen.main.bounds.size
let randomX = RandomInt(min: 0, max: viewSize.width)
let randomY = RandomInt(min: 0, max: viewSize.height)
let randomPosition = CGPoint(x: randomX, y: randomY)
let minDuration = 1  // Put here whatever value you feel fit for the minimum duration of flying
let maxDuration = 5  // Put here whatever value you feel fit for the maximum duration of flying
let randomDuration = TimeInterval(RandomInt(min: minDuration, max: maxDuration))
let fireAtWill = SKAction.move(to: randomPosition, duration: randomSpeed)
yourSpriteNode.runAction(fireAtWill)

Don't forget to replace "yourSpriteNode" with the name of the sprite node you need to fire.
Here is the RandomInt helper function:
func RandomInt(min: Int, max: Int) -> Int {
    return Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(max-(min-1)))) + min
}

A: Your problem with sks files is an odd one - you may want to ask a separate question on that with more details.
You can use SpriteKit without sks files though - they are just a shortcut but everything can be done in code if you need/want to. See this SO answer for a discussion, an example and some useful links.

P.K. Subban Named A Captain for All-Star Game
Subban was the leading vote getter for the Central Division
By Michael Gallagher@mpatrickg5 Jan 3, 2017, 7:42pm EST
Share All sharing options for: P.K. Subban Named A Captain for All-Star Game
In his first season with the Nashville Predators, P.K. Subban has accomplished something that no other Predator has before: be named a captain of an NHL All-Star team.
According to the team's website, Subban joins former Montreal teammate Carey Price, Sidney Crosby, and Connor McDavid as the other captains. Subban's first All-Star appearance came last year when the All-Star game was in, you guessed it, Nashville.
The All-Star game will be held Jan. 29 in Los Angeles. This will be the second year of the 3-on-3 format, featuring three 20-minute games.
Given the recent injury it remains unknown if Subban will be back in time to play in the All-Star game. Given the 2-3 week timetable for his return, it is still possible he can make it back in time.

Interplanetary shock wave sparks display of Arctic auroras
© Markus Varik
Surprising forecasters, an interplanetary shock wave hit Earth's magnetic field on Jan. 11th. The impact just after 08:30 UT did not trigger a geomagnetic storm. However, strong magnetic fields downstream of the shockfront opened a crack in Earth's magnetosphere. Solar wind poured in to fuel a nice display of Arctic auroras.
"I was running around my apartment like a maniac, looking for pants and camera equipment," says photographer Markus Varik of Tromsø, Norway. " I didn't have enough time to go to completely dark location--but I didn't need to. The auroras were so bright."
Shallow 6.7-magnitude earthquake hits Russia-Mongolia border

The epicenter
A strong 6.7-magnitude earthquake has struck a lake along the Russia-Mongolia border, with shaking felt across the region, seismologists and residents say. There were no immediate reports of injuries.
The earthquake struck at 5:33 a.m. local time on Tuesday and was centered in Lake Khövsgöl in northern Mongolia, about 55 kilometers (34 miles) from the border with Russia, or 288 km (179 miles) southwest of Irkutsk.
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) put the earthquake's magnitude at 6.7, down from an earlier estimate of 6.8. It said the quake struck at a depth of just 10 km (6 miles) and was felt across the region on both sides of the border.
The area near the epicenter is not heavily populated but is home to a number of villages near the lake, including Hatgal and Turt, which have a combined population of up to 5,000 people. There were no immediate reports of casualties.
50 cm of snow accumulates on Taiwan's Snow Mountain

Heavy snows force hikers to retreat to mountain hut
Fifty centimeters of snow has accumulated on the cirque just below the summit of Snow Mountain, forcing most hiking teams to retreat to the 369 mountain hut for safety.
The Shei-Pa National Park Headquarters said on Monday (Jan. 11) that according to the reports of patrolling volunteers, Snow Mountain received considerable snowfall during the cold wave last week. After a letup in the daytime on Sunday, snow began to fall on the mountain again around 9 p.m. Sunday night, which continued all of Monday, according to a CNA report.
By Monday evening, there was 50 cm of snow accumulation on the cirque, 30 cm in the Black Forest, and 25 cm at the 369 mountain hut.

Michigan had over 2 million lightning strikes in 2020, one-third higher than normal
Mark Torregrossa
A lightning detector in the National Lightning Detector Network.
A lightning study done yearly through recent years shows Michigan had more lightning than usual in 2020. In fact, almost one-quarter of our lightning in Michigan came on one July weekend.
Vaisala owns the National Lightning Detection Network(NLDN), which it developed in 1989. Around 100 lightning sensors evenly distributed across the U.S. can count every lightning bolt, whether from cloud-to-cloud or cloud-to-ground.
Vaisala counted up all of the lightning pulses across the country, and put together this interesting report.
The NLDN counted 2,317,693 in-cloud and cloud-to-ground lightning pulses across Michigan in 2020.
The map below shows the density of lightning pulses. Chris Vagasky, Meteorologist, Lightning Applications Manager at Vaisala, defines pulses as the total of in-cloud strikes and cloud-to-ground strikes.

Sept. 10 (UPI) -- Amazon has canceled its period dramas Z: The Beginning of Everything and The Last Tycoon.
The Hollywood Reporter said neither the Christina Ricci-led Z, which is about author F. Scott Fitzgerald's wife, Zelda Fitzgerald, in the 1920s, nor Matt Bomer's Tycoon, which is based on an unfinished work by F. Scott Fitzgerald about the early Hollywood film industry, were picked up for a second season because the streaming service wants to focus on developing hits for a broader audience.
Meanwhile, Variety reported TNT opted against ordering more episodes of Will due to the show's low ratings.
