Some 25 years ago there was a guy who took over a lot of good pigeon farms around the Staffordshire/Shropshire area, he had a waiting list of guns from this country and abroad willing to pay between £150/£200 per day, this shooting was on stubble, but to keep the birds interested he would feed the stubbles with wheat and let the bird numbers build before putting paying guns on the fields, there were some big bags taken from these fields on a regular bases.
Yep, it went on down in Oxfordshire area as well around the same time.
Agree with you about the unethical bit, but these people didn't care. I believe this was before the general license came in, correct me if I'm wrong.
Who is the guide? Jim Albone?
I thought that feeding like that was not in line with the general licence, or even possibly illegal. If not, it`s certainly unethical in my view anyway.
I don't see it as unethical. No different to feeding pheasants in woods, or ducks on ponds.
There after at 3:1, it's still £10 a bird.
Cheaper than game shooting but almost no costs involved. A complete con, again.
If people are willing to pay then that's their choice. I would imagine other pigeon guides will benefit from this exercise, as people will shop around and find other guided days for £125/£150.....if I was being cynical then I would wonder if there were a group of guides who may benefit overall from this and if the whole advert is part of a bigger marketing campaign.
I doubt very much that country dwelling experienced pigeon shooters would pay that sort of money.
An experienced guide used to operate near me in the Cotswolds and I was forever telling him and his clients to get off land over which I had the pigeon shooting and over which he had no permissions. He used to get inexperienced guns, mostly Greek if I can remember correctly, to stand in a field all day and he would charge them £200 for the privilege even in those days. Sometimes they never fired a shot but expressed themselves perfectly happy to be out and about.
If people will pay it they will charge it.everyshould boycott the shoot.
Its a huge amount of money for not much guaranteed shooting. Driven days you know what you are getting ! I shot three dove days in Argentina for less with accommodation included!

Ad self-regulatory unit refers Wal-Mart, Aspire Sports Drink ads to FTC
Posted on July 20, 2015 5:58 am by Kathryn Bachman in Marketing
The National Advertising Division (NAD), the unit of the Advertising Self-Regulatory Council that reviews national advertising and considers competitor challenges to advertising claims, took the unusual step of referring advertising from Wal-Mart and Aspire Sports Drink to the Federal Trade Commission.
Referrals are the most extreme step for the National Advertising Division; most brands revise or pull advertising based on NAD's decisions. So far this year, NAD, which reviews more than 100 cases a year, has referred five cases to the FTC. In 2014, NAD referred six cases to the FTC and referred ten in 2013.
The FTC does not comment on whether it would review the referred ads under the agency's unfair and deceptive practices authority.
Walmart ran afoul of the NAD when, in the course of a routine monitoring program, the regulatory group asked the retailer to substantiate the implied claims in the big box retailers "raise in pay" ads.
The NAD believed that the ad implied that Wal-Mart raised wages of its employees from minimum wage to $15 per hour, that Wal-Mart raised the wages of its employees to a living wage, allowing them to earn enough to support themselves and/or their families and that Wal-Mart's increased wages allows its employees to "build a future."
In response to NAD's inquiry, Wal-mart disagreed that the commercial conveyed any implied messages that required substantiation. The company also contended that it was outside the NAD's mandate to examine whether the commercial made any implied claims and to demand support for such claims.
Because Walmart would not participate in the self-regulatory process, NAD referred the commercial to the FTC.
In the case of Aspire, the sports drinks maker's ads claimed the drink was "all natural," and makes "it easier to flight colds, flu, and infections," while Gatorade supplies "empty calories" and includes "extra sugar."
Stokely-Van Camp, the maker of competitor Gatorade, challenged those claims.
NAD found that Aspire did not demonstrate the negative properties of Gatorade or the replacement benefits of Aspire and recommended that Aspire discontinue those claims.
The company agreed to make certain of the recommended changes, but disagreed with NAD's recommendation that Aspire discontinue its unqualified claim that it is a 'natural sports drink.
"We are confident in our ability to continue making this claim and that our 'natural' claim is truthful and supported," said the company in a statement.
Since Aspire declined to implement certain recommendations, NAD referred the case to FTC.
NAD is the investigative unit of the Advertising Self-Regulatory Council, administered by the Council of Better Business Bureaus.

Hidden Figures and Automation Anxiety
Paul Whitelam
With today's technology resembling a scene out of 'The Jetsons' and innovation happening at the speed of light, there is concern that automation will eliminate jobs, or even supplant the human race. While the opportunity provided by innovation is boundless, let's step back for a moment and consider the current situation.
The concern about the impact technology will have on jobs is as old as technology itself—if you've seen the new Oscar-nominated movie Hidden Figures, then you know that in 1957 people worried that computers posed a threat to their jobs. If you haven't caught the film, it tells the true story of three extraordinary African American women—NASA's human "computers"—whose brilliant calculations helped launch astronaut John Glenn into orbit. So when NASA adopts technology in the form of the newest IBM mainframe, an underlying but not-so-subtle theme is the threat that the human computers would be replaced by machines. But even then, it was clear that computers were not worth much without human programming skills.
While debated back and forth regularly, there's no simple answer; we'd need a crystal ball to determine what the future holds but to date, innovation has not led to a rising trend in unemployment. Sure, online banking and ATMs have reduced the need for tellers in banks, but other factors have resulted in an increase in staff needed to sell and support financial services products. And that's just one example of the grey area.
The topic of automation, jobs and the future of work was discussed by a panel facilitated by McKinsey Global Institute. Reid Hoffman, cofounder and former executive chairman at LinkedIn explains, "If you look at most of the automation, it comes down to man–machine combinations. And all productivity means is that when you have productivity increases, each person is doing more. And therefore, the unit—the number of people to do this amount of work—goes down, right? But that then creates resources for doing other work." And the 'other work' means that people might need to shift skills and remain open to the possibility that their jobs may change.
But one fact remains the same: thanks to innovation and changing consumer demands, transactionality is dead and there exists one critical differentiator between success and failure – customer experience. Is great customer experience even possible in a fully automated society?
Not anytime soon, according to government insights. In 2016, The Administration's Report on the Future of Artificial Intelligence that appeared on the White House blog reported, "Although it is very unlikely that machines will exhibit broadly-applicable intelligence comparable to or exceeding that of humans in the next 20 years, experts forecast that rapid progress in the field of specialized AI will continue, with machines reaching and exceeding human performance on an increasing number of tasks." Twenty years gives us an entire generation to determine and adapt to the inevitable new world order.
There's no doubt that technology is becoming faster, smarter, better – but to-date there's no technology that is not powered, at least initially, by a human mind. The promise of self-driving cars is all the rage, but experts maintain that fully-autonomous cars won't be ready for 15 to 20 years and even then its potential is unknown. While it sounds transformational, for example, for companies with delivery services, the question that remains is who will walk the item to the door? This is just one example of where technology without human intervention is not yet a panacea.
Keeping up with innovation in the workplace
Recent reports allege that Amazon is developing grocery stores that will be operated by robots and have a maximum of 10 human employees at each location. While the grocery industry is not untouched by automation—self-checkout allows shoppers to avoid cashiers— its future is grim, and some major retailers have removed the machines from their stores. How Amazon will fare is anyone's guess—but what Amazon relies on for its successful business model is the expectation that it will deliver great customer experience to its audience. Interacting with robots might be cool at first, but people relate to people, especially when making purchases in retail or understanding the justification for the price when the HVAC technician fixes your furnace.
There are varying ways to think about the impact of automation on jobs. If you're worried, let's consider a few ways to work with it:
New tech requires new skills. The protagonists in Hidden Figures found ways to prove their value by shifting their skills and developing new ones. People in 2017 should do the same. Be aware of your environment and strive to keep up with all new tech introduced in your workplace. Continuously hone and develop your skills; become as indispensable as possible.
Technology has no feelings. Many jobs, by their very nature, require human emotion, which cannot be programmed into a machine. From doctors and nurses to artists and writers; the world will always have a need for compassion, empathy, trust and personality. Social skills cannot be emulated by machines, and will always be necessary for many jobs.
Embrace technology, don't fear it. While it may seem intimidating when new technology is introduced in the workplace, the best way to approach it is to be curious about it. What is its use? Do people need training? Can you learn everything there is to know about it and position yourself as the go-to person for the tool or solution?
It's safe to say that innovation is going to continue to mature in ways we can't predict and some jobs will change and be eliminated as a result. But the individual susceptibility of any job to being replaced will vary. Even as innovation continues to accelerate, it's highly unlikely that our society will ever seek to automate the entire human workforce. People continue to mature alongside their technology, and some of what we bring to the table will always remain just out of a machine's reach.

Local Democrats Get An Early Start – Progressive Activist Calendar, January 26 – February 4, 2018
January 26, 2018 by Doug Porter
How can we make sure the Blue Wave washes some of the sludge out of local government?
By rolling up our sleeves and getting to work. Early. Like now. And that's what the San Diego County Democratic Party and many local activists are doing. And there is still time for YOU to get in on the action.
It's the middle of 'winter' in San Diego, and this calendar lists eight canvassing efforts, along with four forums giving people an opportunity to see candidates in person over the next week or so. Bravo!
Many voters are not aware that our elected leaders in county government are all Republicans – despite the fact that Democrats outnumber Republicans here by more than 100,000. Voters also need to know that these county races could be won outright in June, so voting in the primary is critical to ensure county leadership that represents our community. —Democratic Party call for canvassers.
At SDFP we've started with our candidate profiles (and more are coming). This week's four-part series gave an overview of the County's electoral landscape and a brief introduction to leading Democratic candidates.
Pro Tip: The headline on each of these articles offers up a clue on each candidate's approach to tackling the GOP monolith at the Board of Supervisors.
Part One: An Overview – These Elections Are the Ones to Watch
Part Two: Lori Saldaña – The Truth Will Set You Free
Part Three: Omar Passons – Policy Wonk With a Heart of Gold
Part Four: Nathan Fletcher – Build a Coalition for Change

Check out this week's Progressive Calendar listings below. Following those listings are upcoming events of national importance, along with opportunities for organizational involvement.
Get your event listed: I try to list the next 10 days or so of mostly non-commercial events I think our readers might find of interest. I source my material from social media listings and press releases. Club meetings will be listed IF there are speakers and they are open to the public.
Democratic Candidates: I will list all non-fundraising events open to the general public. A listing does not imply endorsement. Events that are listed on Facebook as 'private' or sold-out are not listed. In cases where there are competing but similar events or campaigns of the progressive persuasion, I do my best to list everything.

Food Is A Right! El Cajon Solidarity Action
Wells Park
1153 East Madison Avenue (El Cajon)
For More Information (Civil Disobedience)
Hosted by Food Not Bombs San Diego
While the El Cajon City Council has lifted the ban, the misdemeanor citations given out two weeks ago still stand. As of Thursday afternoon, this event was still a go.
Food Not Bombs has fed hundreds of thousands of people across the world, including families, kids playing in public spaces, residents that live in nearby low-income housing and anyone else passing by that wants a bowl of soup. We strongly believe that sharing food in public places is not what maintains issues with homelessness, and that the city of El Cajon and the county of San Diego have a responsibility to provide sanitation facilities and housing first.

Hands Across the Sand: SD Voice Matters!
Saturday, February 3, 11am
Mission Beach at Belmont Park
For More Information (RSVP)
The Trump Administration's Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) has proposed drilling off nearly all U.S. coastline and has only scheduled one public hearing in Sacramento. They are neglecting the voice of San Diegans in the process.
We will rally together and have a panel of local leaders addressing the media, and an empty seat where BOEM representatives should be. We will take a picture linking arms on our beach to spell out "NO OIL"
This is your chance to have your voice heard on a national level that we will not welcome off-shore drilling on our coast!! The extraction and use of fossil fuels increases carbon emissions and jeopardizes both California's clean energy goals, and the mandated enforceable Climate Action Plans of many jurisdictions. This is a survival issue for all life on the planet. Every resource we have should be dedicated to converting to clean energy.

UPDATE: Rev. Shane Harris reached out to me and says the event is free and open to the public. So I guess you can just ignore that Facebook "ticket" link.

Wow! Thanks so much, Doug, for your very informative political progressive calendar.
I'd like to let your readers know that our wonderful County Democratic Party has a very good program to help get registered voters out to vote. Yes, we're in a political year, so that means our Grassroots Organizing (GO) Team will be out knocking on Dems/decline to state doors in your neighborhood in the near future. Training is given, and if you are interested in helping to get out the vote, contact our Co. Dem Party at 858-277-3367. You will be a Precinct Leader (PL). It has been shown that when we connect with registered voters in your own neighborhood, they likely may actually vote.
Our trained volunteers go to their own precinct ("I'm your neighbor…") or nearby precinct if there is already a PL in your neighborhood.
Let's get out the vote to make sure our Dems get elected.

Lingzhi Mushroom of Immortality
Three Brightly Colored Lingzhi aka Reishi Mushrooms
Lingzhi mushrooms enjoy a worldwide reputation, as the ultimate herbal substance. In Chinese, lingzhi means "herb of spiritual potency."
Lingzhi mushroom has successfully been used as an herbal medicine for thousands of years and is known as the "Mushroom of Immortality."
Lingzhi mushrooms are one of the oldest and most effective mushrooms used in traditional Chinese medicine.
They have been effectively used as anti-inflammatories, antivirals, anti-parasitics, anti-fungals, anti-diabetics and anti-hypotensives.They have also been shown to effectively lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar.
Lingzhi Mushrooms for Asthma
Numerous studies of Lingzhi mushrooms have established their effectiveness in the treatment of a wide range of diseases and symptoms. The reason I have written about them here (and take them myself), is because of their ability to strengthen the respiratory system and their healing effect on the lungs. It has been shown that Lingzhi mushrooms are particularly beneficial for individuals with asthma, cough and other respiratory complaints.
In an article entitled, "Medicinal Mushrooms", published in the January/February 1997 Issue of Herbs for Health, written by Christopher Hobbs, a population study conducted in the 1970s is offered as validation confirming this claim.
The article describes a population study conducted on more than 2000 Chinese with chronic bronchitis. They were instructed to consume Lingzhi mushroom syrup over a period of two weeks. Approximately 90% of this population reported significantly improved breathing as well as improved appetite.
Lingzhi mushrooms have also been successfully used in cardiovascular treatment, in bronchitis prevention, in the treatment of high blood pressure, hepatitis, HIV support, fatigue, allergies, chemotherapy support, altitude sickness, and high triglycerides. Due to the presence of triterpenes, lingzhi mushrooms are understood as an adaptogenic, anti-allergenic and anti-hypertensive.
Lingzhi mushrooms are soft, corky, and flat polypores. They have a kidney shaped, red varnished cap. Lingzhi mushrooms lack gills on their underside, and instead depending on their age, have white to dull brown fine pores, which they use to release their spores, the very reason their morphological classification is polypores.
Lingzhi mushrooms are classified into six categories, according to The Chinese Herbal Materia Medica, depending on their respective shape and color. Each of the six categories is said to nourish a different part of the body:
White Lingzhi Mushroom – Lungs and skin
Black Lingzhi Mushroom – Kidneys and Brain
Green Lingzhi Mushroom – Liver
Purple Lingzhi Mushroom – Joints
Yellow Lingzhi Mushroom – Spleen.
Red Lingzhi Mushroom – Heart
Lingzhi mushrooms can be consumed in high doses with other medications due to their generally slight side effects. Lingzhi has been shown to enhance the immune system and lessen nervous tension, which may help normalize and balance the body.
Lingzhi mushroom formulations are easily prepared. Simmering thinly sliced or pulverized Lingzhi mushrooms in a pot of boiling water for two hours is the traditional method. The resulting liquid is normally bitter in taste, with the less active black Lingzhi mushroom tasting less bitter than the more active red Lingzhi mushroom. The liquid can also be used to make an extract in liquid, capsule, or powder form, and be added to a formula decoction.
Some studies have shown that long-term use of Lingzhi mushrooms (approximately 4 months) can result in very mild side effects. These have included stomach upset, nosebleed, and dryness of the nasal passages, mouth and throat. These side effects were completely avoided by discontinuing the use of Lingzhi mushrooms for approximately 1 month after taking them for four months, then taking them again for four months.
Lingzhi mushrooms are available for sale all over the world. Both polysaccharides, and triterpenoids are available as a hot water extract and an alcohol extract. Lingzhi mushroom extracts may also be called reishi, reishi mushroom, ganoderma, ling zhi, and ling-zhi.
Where to buy Lingzhi Mushroom extract:
Lingzhi (Reishi) Mushroom Extract on LifeExtension.com
Lingzhi (Reishi) Mushroom on Amazon.com
Lingzhi (Reishi) Mushroom on Ebay.com
[UPDATE]: I've written an article about an herbal asthma treatment called "ASHMI Clear Breathing With Chinese Herbs" which describes how Dr. Xiu-Min Li of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York combines Lingzhi Mushroom with three other herbs to produce a natural and effective asthma treatment. It's a good read.

София фон Гогенберг (София Мария Франциска Антония Игнатия Альберта; 24 июля 1901, Конопиште — 27 октября 1990, Таннхаузен) — единственная дочь эрцгерцога Франца Фердинанда и Софии Хотек, которые были убиты в Сараево 28 июня 1914 года. Их убийство дало формальный повод началу Первой мировой войны, поэтому Софию и двух её братьев иногда называют первыми сиротами Первой мировой войны.

Биография

Детство
Принцесса София родилась 24 июля 1901 года в замке Конопиште в Австро-Венгрии (ныне Чешская Республика), в пятидесяти километрах к юго-востоку от Праги. Этот замок был любимым домом эрцгерцога и его жены. 29 сентября 1902 года у них родился первый сын Максимилиан, а 17 мая 1904 года родился второй сын, Эрнст. В 1908 году жена эрцгерцога снова забеременела, и четвёртый ребёнок, мальчик, родился мёртвым 7 ноября 1908 года.

Поскольку эрцгерцог поклялся, что дети от его морганатического брака никогда не смогут занять престол, он предполагал, что их будущее будет нормальным и спокойным. Он хотел, чтобы его сыновья вели простую жизнь деревенских сквайров, а дочь, София, была бы счастлива рядом с социально-подходящим партнёром, которого она бы любила. Он надеялся, что его дети смогут наслаждаться жизнью без материальных забот и вести обычную жизнь. Позже София сказала, что она и её братья были воспитаны, так, что они никогда не считали себя особенными. Она заявила, что её отец был твёрд с детьми, но никогда не был резким или несправедливым.

Во время суда над мужчинами, обвиняемыми в убийстве эрцгерцога Франца Фердинанда и его жены, единственным подсудимым, который выразил раскаяние, был Неделько Чабринович, принесший извинения детям жертв. Принцессе Софии и её братьям рассказали об извинениях Чабриновича, и они написали ему письмо. Они сообщили ему, что слышали о его извинениях и заявили, что его совесть может быть спокойна, поскольку они простили его за участие в убийстве их родителей. София и Максимилиан подписали письмо, однако Эрнст отказался. Письмо было доставлено лично Чабриновичу в его камеру в Терезиенштадте отцом-иезуитом Антоном Пунтигамом. 23 января 1916 года принцессе Софии и её братьям сообщили, что Чабринович умер.

После убийства родителей Софию и двух её младших братьев, Максимилиана и Эрнста, взяли к себе брат их матери и близкий друг их отца и партнёр по стрельбе, принц Ярослав фон Тун и Гогенштейн.

В конце 1918 года их имущество в Чехословакии, включая Конопиште и Хлумец-над-Цидлиноу, было конфисковано чехословацким правительством. Дети переехали в Вену и замок Артштеттен.

Брак и дети
8 сентября 1920 года София вышла замуж за графа Фридриха фон Ностиц-Ринекка (1891—1973). У них было четверо детей:
 Эрвин Максимилиан Франц фон Ностиц-Ринекк (29 июня 1921 — 11 сентября 1949), умер в советском лагере для военнопленных.
 Франц Фридрих Эрнст Леопольд фон Ностиц-Ринекк (2 февраля 1923 — 23 февраля 1945), погиб на Восточном фронте.
 Алоис Карл Йозеф фон Ностиц-Ринекк (12 августа 1925 — 22 апреля 2003), в 1962 году женился на графине Терезии фон Вальдбург-Цайль. Имел четверо детей, тринадцать внуков и пять правнуков.
 София Амалия Терезия фон Ностиц-Ринекк (род. 4 июня 1929), с 1953 года замужем за бароном Эрнстом Гуденусом. Имеет четверо детей, десять внуков.

Поздняя жизнь
В 1938 году после аншлюса (присоединения Австрии к Германии при Адольфе Гитлере) её братья Максимилиан и Эрнст были арестованы гестапо из-за антинацистских заявлений и депортированы в концентрационный лагерь Дахау. Их имущество в Австрии было конфисковано нацистскими властями. Они оба пережили своё заключение в Дахау.

Муж Софии умер в 1973 году, после чего она вела тихую жизнь в Австрии, навещаемая своими внуками. В 1981 году она впервые за шестьдесят лет посетила Конопиште. Во время этого визита она говорила о том, каким счастливым было её детство.

София дожила до 89 лет и умерла в октябре 1990 года в Танхаузене, Австрия. Она была похоронена рядом со своим мужем в семейном склепе своего зятя, барона Эрнста Гуденуса, в соседнем Вайцберге. Она на много лет пережила своих младших братьев.

BRITISH RIFLE GALLERY
British Enfield Rifles Volume 2, No. 4 and No. 5 Rifles
by Charles R. Stratton
Since the publication of Volume 1 of "The British Enfield Rifles"series in 1997, collectors have loudly demanded the publication of Volume 2, covering the World War II-era "No. 4 and No. 5 Rifles."
Well, here it is at last. And Charles (Skip) Stratton, has done an outstanding job- again. He presents the No. 4 and No. 5 rifle part-by-part. Every single model, including the sniper rifles, target and match rifles and training rifles manufactured in the U.K., Canada, the U.S., Republic of South Africa and Pakistan is thoroughly described.
He begins by presenting the historical background for the development of both rifles, the No. 4 in the dark, early days of World War II and the No. 5 (better known as the Jungle Carbine) prompted by the ferocious fighting in Malaya and Burma. He describes each variation of both rifles and explains what all the "marks," "numbers," and codes found on most parts mean and shows how to relate them to the various manufacturing factories in England, Canada, the United States, South Africa and Pakistan. He also provides a breakdown of serial numbers by year, factory and country.
Stratton then literally dissects both rifles, describing every single part and explaining the reasons behind any changes and points out how to identify those changes.
For instance, there are eight different receivers - action bodies- used on the eleven variations of both rifles, five variations of breech bolts, nine variations of rear sights, thirteen variations of barrels and two variations of stocks. Stratton also discusses every single part of the rifle in the same detail so that the reader and collector knows that there are three variations of the humble stock bolt, seven variations of the forend, three variations of the buttplate, and so on, as well as how to identify each and relate it to a specific range of serial numbers produced by a specific factory.
The book also translates the codes and markings that often pinpoint its original and subsequent military units. Collectors are thrilled when the discover that their rifle served at El Alamein or during the Invasion of Sicily, at Monte Cassino, Normandy or in the Far East in Malaya, or in Korea or Aden or anywhere else British forces were to be found between 1941 and the mid-1950s.
As with his first volume covering the Mk I and Mk III (No. 1) Rifles, this is a thorough and well-organized book that will aid the collector in determining originality and restoring these historical battle rifles to authenticity.

I love OpenWRT, but it doesn't forward multicast packets between the WiFi (wlan0) and LAN (br-lan). DLNA discovery uses multicast 239.255.255.250.
I tried a few solutions like igmpproxy and udpxy but neither worked.
Avahi-daemon does this for us. There isn't much documentation online, but I found it worked out of the box for me. These were the commands I used and I was immediately able to see my DLNA servers (on the LAN side) on my Wireless devices.

This group is for all young writers (18-30). It's not just a group to encourage writing, it is a group that will HELP you write.
If you would like to know a bit about my background I will write here that I used to run two very successful writers groups at two different universities: U.B.C.O. and York University. The first group was titled U.B.C.O. Writes and the second group still exists. It is called Y U WRITE.
So why am I creating my own writers' group? I'm creating my own writers' group because I am no longer in school but would still like to teach likeminded writers the CRAFT of writing. Writing is in my blood and it is my calling so I'm hoping if you're reading this that it is your calling as well.
I would love to meet with writers just like me (young and ambitious) who need a support group and also a mentor who will guide them on their writing journey. If you have just completed a book or want to start one or don't know where to begin or just write poetry or song lyrics or any other type of writing, this group is for you.
I'm hoping to gather young faces from all over Toronto and hope that we can help each other.

Q: Wrapping Serialized Array Elements with the Name of the Array I am using VSTS2008 + C# + .Net 3.0.  I am using below code to serialize XML, and my object contains array type property, and I want to add an additional elements' layer ("MyInnerObjectProperties" element layer in my expected results below, and I want to make "MyInnerObjectProperties" element as parent element for all MyInnerObjectProperty element). Any ideas?
Current serialized XML,
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<MyClass xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <MyObjectProperty>
    <MyInnerObjectProperty>
      <ObjectName>Foo Type</ObjectName>
    </MyInnerObjectProperty>
    <MyInnerObjectProperty>
      <ObjectName>Goo Type</ObjectName>
    </MyInnerObjectProperty>
  </MyObjectProperty>
</MyClass>

Expected serialized XML,
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<MyClass xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <MyObjectProperty>
    <MyInnerObjectProperties>
      <MyInnerObjectProperty>
        <ObjectName>Foo Type</ObjectName>
      </MyInnerObjectProperty>
      <MyInnerObjectProperty>
        <ObjectName>Goo Type</ObjectName>
      </MyInnerObjectProperty>
    </MyInnerObjectProperties>
  </MyObjectProperty>
</MyClass>

Current code,
public class MyClass
{
    private MyObject[] _myObjectProperty;

    [XmlElement(IsNullable=false)]
    public MyObject[] MyObjectProperty
    {
        get
        {
            return _myObjectProperty;
        }
        set
        {
            _myObjectProperty = value;
        }
    }
}
public class MyObject
{
    private MyInnerObject[] _myInnerObjectProperty;

    [XmlElement(IsNullable = false)]
    public MyInnerObject[] MyInnerObjectProperty
    {
        get
        {
            return _myInnerObjectProperty;
        }
        set
        {
            _myInnerObjectProperty = value;
        }
    }
}

public class MyInnerObject
{
    public string ObjectName;
}

public class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        XmlSerializer s = new XmlSerializer(typeof(MyClass));
        FileStream fs = new FileStream("foo.xml", FileMode.Create);
        MyClass instance = new MyClass();
        instance.MyObjectProperty = new MyObject[1];
        instance.MyObjectProperty[0] = new MyObject();
        instance.MyObjectProperty[0].MyInnerObjectProperty = new MyInnerObject[2];
        instance.MyObjectProperty[0].MyInnerObjectProperty[0] = new MyInnerObject();
        instance.MyObjectProperty[0].MyInnerObjectProperty[0].ObjectName = "Foo Type";
        instance.MyObjectProperty[0].MyInnerObjectProperty[1] = new MyInnerObject();
        instance.MyObjectProperty[0].MyInnerObjectProperty[1].ObjectName = "Goo Type";

        s.Serialize(fs, instance);

        return;
    }
}

A: make use of the XmlArrayItemAttribute
[XmlArray("MyInnerObjectProperties")]
[XmlArrayItemAttribute("MyInnerObjectProperty", typeof(MyInnerObject),  IsNullable = false)]
public MyInnerObject[] MyInnerObjectProperty
{
   get
     {
         return _myInnerObjectProperty;
     }
   set
     {
        _myInnerObjectProperty = value;
     }
}

A:     ...
    [XmlArray(IsNullable = false)]
    [XmlArrayItem("MyInnerObjectProperties")]
    public MyObject[] MyObjectProperty
    {
        get
        {

Q: Visual Studio 2013 won't compile C array declaration I've read multiple posts about this issue and have not been able to solve my problem. I have a file with a .c extension that compiles perfectly on gcc. I've made sure that in the project properties it is set to Compile to C code. Still, when I try to compile, it fails because it won't allow this me to declare an array like this:
int scArray[N][v];

This indicates to me that it is trying to compile my code as C++ (maybe I'm wrong on that though).
What can I do to fix this?

A: VS2013 did add a fair amount of C99 library support, but it does not support VLA's as far as I am aware. At least, I could not find a mention of it in any MS article and the code doesn't compile, so... I'm assuming that it does not.  See this article for library support.
EDIT: Per your comment, you have to allocate the memory dynamically.
To allocate your pointer:
int **p = malloc(N * sizeof *p);
for(int i = 0; i < N; ++i)
    p[i] = malloc(v * sizeof(int));

If your array dimensions were known at compile time, this would allocate one big block instead of performing N + 1 allocations:
int (*p)[COLS] = malloc(sizeof *arr * ROWS);

Of course, you could also just allocate a big chunk and do the math yourself, but you lose the p[x][y] syntax:
int *p = malloc(N * v * sizeof(int));
// fill with data
int elem = p[row * width + col];

We'll just say it. We love Nick Offerman. And yes, we do know he's not actually Ron Swanson, but he's got the mustache, the woodworking expertise (does anyone want to go in on a canoe with us?) and the love of whiskey to convince the world otherwise. That last one is on display in Offerman's ode to whiskey. Watch him croon about drinking, riding horses and everything else you would expect from the man who might be the world's manliest. Enjoy. We definitely did.
The video is part of a collaboration between Offerman and Diageo, the makers of Lagavulin Scotch, whose distillery, as we learned during Parks and Recreation, is the only place worth going in Europe.

I am Tasmanian and I love my island home.
My family story in Australia began as convict First Fleet arrivals to Sydney in 1788, then later with British settlement of Van Dieman's Land when ancestor Robert Carter Alomes (British Marine on the vessel Ocean), was sent ashore in 1804 by lieutenant governor David Collins with the flag raising Party to establish Hobart.
My family have multi-generational links to the Tasmanian East Coast through business and farming across eight generations. Today I work closely with the Tasmanian Aboriginal community to understand the past and educate wider Tasmania and visiting guests on the value of maintaining connection to country and culture. I grew up on East coast in a home built on Maria Island by the pioneering Italian and Maria Island entrepreneur Diago Bernachi. Exploring, adventuring and later working on the Island as an education ranger with the Tasmanian Parks and Wildlife Service.
I currently specialise in the field of experiential nature-based adventure learning with a focus on story- telling and meaningful nature connection. I launched Tasmanian eBike Adventures in 2017 and commenced operating on Bangor in collaboration with the Dunbabin family, owners of Bangor Farm and developers of the Bangor Winery Shed.
In August 2018 I received a licence from the Tasmanian government to operate electric mountain bike adventures on Maria island National Park which will commence this upcoming season in December.
