The Integrated Approach to Nitrogen (PAS) is expected to boost the restoration of nitrogen-sensitive nature, while also stimulating commercial activities in nearby areas. However, in light of the uncertainties around the implementation of the PAS programme, there is a realistic possibility that nature recovery will not take place in certain areas. Temporary recovery management and hydrological measures are most effective and efficient as recovery measures under the PAS. The temporary character of such recovery management, however, has the obvious drawback of having a limited timespan. The positive effect thus is only temporary and when this measure is applied on a regular basis it may cause the negative side effects to dominate. The compensative contribution of hydrological measures is only limited and these measures are unable to fully solve the problem of eutrophication. This means that source measures will be needed to achieve a sustainable solution to this issue.
To stop the population decline of Black-tailed Godwits (Limosa limosa), high quality breeding habitat needs to be created. To determine where to create such fields it is important to understand if and how disturbance by roads and traffic affects the settlement of breeding Godwits. To investigate the effects of roads, we investigated the distribution and distance of nests relative to different types of roads and compared those between modern grassland monocultures of low breeding quality and herb-rich, wet meadows of high breeding quality.
In grassland monocultures, the number of nests found was smaller near roads with higher traffic intensity. Yet the distance between the nests and the roads did not increase with traffic intensity. This is in contrast with other reports in the literature. The nest distribution on herb-rich meadows was less straightforward: due to the high number of nests in de Workumerwaard area, a bias arose towards roads with small traffic intensity. Still, relatively more nests were found near roads with higher traffic intensities in meadows than in monoculture grasslands. This could indicate that the settlement decision of godwits breeding in high quality area is less affected by the traffic intensity of the nearby road. However, the average distance between nests and roads was higher in meadows than in grassland monocultures, indicating that creation of new breeding habitat near busy roads is sub-optimal.

In 2012 the farmers' association of the 'Noordelijke Friese Wouden' (NFW) managed 8.681 hectares of meadow bird farm land, in 20 areas with mosaic management. In 2012, a total of 5.048 breeding pairs of all meadow bird species were counted, with densities of 11.8 pairs of Black-tailed Godwit, 24.4 pairs of Lapwing, 12.2 pairs of Oystercatcher and 9.6 pairs of Redshank per 100 ha. Total numbers of Godwits, Lapwings, Oystercatchers and Redshanks showed a 19% decline over 2009-2012. In contrast to the overall decline, 6 areas showed an increase in numbers. We studied the role of shallow inundated fields in this population change. Out of 11 factors, the factor that explained population change best, was the percentage shallow inundated fields during the breeding period. The higher the percentage of shallow inundation, the more positive was the population change for these 4 species. In a smart spatial arrangement with other evidence based measures on farm land, shallow inundation may preserve viable meadow bird populations, preferably in areas already containing meadow bird breeding clusters. A case study illustrates the power of shallow inundation for population increase and sufficient reproduction.

Bernie Sanders' fashion statement steals the show — and he has the best response
San Diego mortuary driver pleads not guilty to burglarizing dead man's house
Video shows mortuary driver rob dead man's home in California, police said.
A mortuary driver robbed a dead man's home and maybe five others, San Diego police allege.
Sammy Williecarl Gates, 49, pleaded not guilty Tuesday to residential burglary and possession of a firearm after he was arrested for allegedly stealing bags of property from the dead man's house just hours after he died, according to the San Diego County Sheriff's Office.
Surveillance footage from outside the house shows Gates leaving the home first with two bags of suspected stolen property, then wheeling a gurney with an empty body bag back inside. When he left the house again, the bag was filled, allegedly with more stolen property.
The victim's family reported missing belongings two days later, then followed up when they found the surveillance footage.
Sammy Williecarl Gates was arrested last month. (San Diego Sheriff's Office)
Detectives searched Gates' home on Sept. 9 and found the victim's safe and firearm, which were initially reported missing, as well as early 1900s war relics, jewelry, watches, comic books and thousands of dollars in collectable coins, according to the sheriff's office.
The gurney and body bags seen in the video were also found at Gates' house.
San Diego officials said detectives have identified at least five other possible victims, but encouraged anyone with information to call the police department at 619-660-7037 or Crime Stoppers at 888-580-8477.

These Tween Hip-Hop Dancers Have More Swag Than You Ever Will (Video)
By Gillian Fuller
Choreographer Matt Steffanina has a knack for propelling talented kids to fame.
First, there was Taylor Hatala, the 11-year-old Internet sensation best known for her dope dances to "Anaconda" and "All About That Bass."
Next up are 11-year-old Bailey Sok and 12-year-old Kenneth San Jose.
The California-based duo, trained by Steffanina, was filmed breaking it down to Meek Mill's "Monster," looking every bit as cool as you've come to expect from the choreographer's crew.
Bailey's mom reports the tiny dancer has trained with a handful of choreographers (you can see some of her other dance videos here), but is taking time off from dancing to brush up on her golf game.
I don't know what her putting skills are like, but her hip-hop talent is way above par.
Check out the video up top, and see Steffanina's other stars in the making here.

Ed Sheeran storms US Billboard charts
Ed Sheeran stormed the US charts on Monday, taking the top spot on the Billboard 200 with his new album "Divide" and also topping the digital songs chart with lead single "Shape of You."
The British singer-songwriter sold an overwhelming 451,000 units of "Divide" in its debut week, giving him the biggest US sales week for any album so far this year.
His US success follows an even bigger start for "Divide" in his native Britain, where Sheeran, 26, had the fastest selling album by a solo male artist in British chart history on Friday.
The singer also made news this week when the makers of HBO TV series "Game of Thrones" announced he would be making a guest star appearance in the upcoming seventh season of the fantasy adventure, which arrives in July.
The Billboard 200 album chart tallies units from album sales, song sales (10 songs equal one album) and streaming activity (1,500 streams equal one album).
Sales of rock band Metallica's album "Hardwired… To Self-Destruct" jumped more than 200 percent to take the No. 2 spot on the Billboard 200 with 81,000 units sold for the week. The jump followed a promotional deal linked to the band's upcoming US tour.
Last week's top spot, Atlanta rapper Future's "HNDRXX" album, slipped to No. 5.
On the digital songs chart, which measures online singles sales, Sheeran's "Shape of You" sold another 115,000 units for the week, nine weeks after its release. Sheeran also saw his new single "Perfect" take the No. 8 spot.

BATON ROUGE - Eleven Southern University international students from India have recieved help from the Baton Rouge community.
Five out of the eleven students will be able to graduate after Southern University, the Indian consulate, and the community has helped the students replaced most of the items lost in the fire.
A massive fire at the Hub Apartments on Highland Road left the students without anything. They lost everything including their personal identification cards, and passports.
After WBRZ covered the story last weekend, several people wanted to reach out and helped the students. Thousands of dollars were donated to the students to assist them with housing, personal items, and things needed to help them get back on their feet. From the money raised, each students will receive $2,000.
"Many of the donations even...one of the donations even took care of our passports," says international student Sharadh Deijala.
Reddy Garvini, a Southern University faculty member who is also from India has also helped the students with retrieving important documents.
"They are getting financial assistance...at the same time they are getting help with whatever help they need. You know some of them donating a computer, you know some of the requirements they need right now, they are taking care of," says Garvini.
The students who are slated to graduate tomorrow will receive a Master's in Computer Science.


Are you a newbie to listening to podcasts? You're in the right place. There's a pretty good chance that somewhere along the line, someone has recommended a podcast to you. Podcasts seem to be everywhere and everyone seems to be listening to them. Whether it's for entertainment, education or personal development or just something to make your commute or chores more interesting – there's a podcast for everyone.
But, if you're a bit of a slow adopter when it comes to technology – like me, then you might not really understand what a podcast is and how they work.
I personally only really started listening to podcasts when I joined The Simplifiers team. Mostly because our CEO Mary was always talking about them and they even featured in some of our team training sessions!
As with a lot of technology, once I get past the initial hurdle of trying something new, it became pretty straight forward and is most certainly a life essential. I mean, thank God I converted to Google Calendar from the paper diary I used to carry around!
So we're sharing this simple and straightforward guide to podcasts for anyone who hasn't listened to one before.
Don't own an Apple phone or tablet? No problem.
Send Mary a voicemail to get featured!
Like me, you probably don't want all the technical info. Basically, a podcast is like an on-demand radio show that you can listen to on-the-go with your smart phone or laptop. One you can listen to anytime.
It's simply an audio recording. It might be an interview between two people, someone telling a story, a drama or a comedic show, a documentary or an informative and educational show. Think of a topic and someone has probably created a podcast episode about it.
The next thing you should know is that podcasts are kinda like TV shows. They can be a single episode, a whole season or multiple seasons. Some podcasts release new episodes over time, others make multiple episodes available instantly.
Ok, this is the part that can get a little bit difficult and put some people off. Let's try to simplify it.
If you have an iPhone or iPad, you simply use the podcast app. Click on the podcasts icon and browse or search for podcasts. Be warned – there are A LOT of podcasts and you can get overwhelmed figuring out which ones to listen to first!
I have an android phone and I tend to put off downloading new apps so this is a method I often use. I just google the podcast and see if I can find an official website. But a podcast may not have it's own website or I may want to download it at home first because listening through a website uses up data.
Alternatively, you can try different apps like Spotify which is better known for music but also has a decent collection of podcasts available. Download the app, click browse and look through the different categories. Or you can simply press search and look for a specific podcast. Another app you might want to try is Stitcher. Some podcasts are only available on specific platforms which can be a bit annoying, but luckily many of the bigger and better podcasts are available in multiple places.
Some, (like our podcast!) are even available as videos on YouTube!
No judgement from me if this still sounds a bit difficult. Do what I do when I get stuck with technology – ask a friend with more knowledge for help!
There's a good chance that if you bump into our CEO and host of The Simplifiers Podcast – Mary – she'll show you how to get our podcast on your phone right there and then!
Don't let fear of asking for help or a reluctance to try new technology put you off podcasts! You'll be missing out on so much!
They keep you entertained when you're doing chores, walking, driving and other times when you're kind of bored.
You can learn new things that will help your business and hear about the latest trends in your industry – there are so many business podcasts out there!
Work on your personal development without reading a ton of books paying lots of money. Many leading coaches and experts either have their own podcast or feature as guests on them. You can get A LOT of valuable information for free!
The Simplifiers Podcast – 2 episodes a week, one always features an interview and practical tips from experts from all kinds of sectors.

Plenty of research tells us that the key to getting reluctant readers to read is finding something that interests them. Graphic novels and other high-interest texts can help spark an interest for a reluctant reader. But how do you harness that interest in a Common Core world where kids are expected to read and write using complex texts? It will take targeted support, says reading specialist Beth Burke. In her LibrarySparks column, Burke spells out 4 ways to help reluctant readers reach Common Core objectives.
1. Balancing informational and literary texts.
2. Climbing the staircase of complexity.
3. Basing answers on the text.

The Bell Curve – kontrowersyjny bestseller z 1994 autorstwa profesora Harvardu Richarda J. Herrnsteina i Charlesa Murraya z American Enterprise Institute. Głównym twierdzeniem jest uznanie inteligencji mierzonej testami za lepszy wskaźnik zarobków, powodzenia w pracy, niechcianej ciąży i przestępczości niż status socjoekonomiczny rodziców czy ich wykształcenie. Stwierdzone jest w niej też, że ludzie z wysoką inteligencją stają się odseparowani od reszty populacji ludzi z inteligencją średnią lub poniżej średniej i że jest to niebezpieczny trend. Największe kontrowersje wywołały rozdziały 13 i 14, w których autorzy twierdzą, że zależność inteligencji od rasy jest genetyczna i omawiają tego następstwa.

Wnioski zawarte w książce są wyprowadzone z badań przeprowadzonych przez innych autorów. Według Leona J. Kamina, Murray osobiście nie jest ekspertem w testowaniu inteligencji.

Tytuł książki pochodzi od rozkładu normalnego wyników testów inteligencji, który ma kształt dzwonu.

Krótko po publikacji odezwały się głosy krytyki, a także obrony książki. Część krytyków określała ją i jej autorów jako popierających naukowy rasizm. Napisano w odpowiedzi książki z krytyką, w tym The Bell Curve Debate, zawierająca eseje odpowiadające na kontrowersyjne zagadnienia podniesione w The Bell Curve.

Human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (Her2)/ErbB2 plays a key role in the initiation and progression of invasive breast cancer. However, the prognostic relevance to breast cancer patients of the other ErbB family members has long been a matter of debate.
In a series of 250 primary invasive breast cancer patients, we performed a comprehensive analysis of ErbB1–4 at the levels of mRNA expression and gene copy number using real-time quantitative PCR. The relationship between the status of ErbB1–4 and the clinicopathological characteristics or prognosis was evaluated.
ErbB3 and ErbB4 mRNA expression, as well as well as that of ErbB1 and ErbB2, could be histopathological factors. ErbB3 mRNA was highly expressed in ER-positive tumors and has controversial prognostic value. ErbB4 mRNA expression was well correlated with ER positivity and good prognosis, indicating that ErbB4 may contribute to ER-dependent growth.

Car and Van News
Has The Time Come For Electric Cars?
Kyle	 Nov 02, 2017
Thursday, November 2, 2017 - 13:20
Car and Van News, Car News, Electric Vehicles, Fleet News, General News, News, People News, Top News
The upsurge of electric car sales has seen more of them on our roads in recent years. According to Nextgreencar, the number of new registrations of electric vehicles has risen from 3,500 in 2013 to 85,000 by the end of 2016, proving the electric vehicle market is a progressively strong industry.
With little battery life, a lack of charging points and expensive prices being the main fall backs in the market so far, is the market beginning to turn a corner as costs start to decline and the range and performance improves?
Electric cars have been breaking records this year when it comes to sales and popularity. The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) reported that registrations of new electric vehicles hit a 12-year high in January this year, reaching a record 4.6% share in UK new car registrations, up from 3.6% in November 2016.
Globally, the electric market has accelerated past the two million mark, with China, USA and Europe accounting for more than 90% of the electric vehicle sales in 2016. It's now expected to continue to rise following the news that Norway has a plan in action to eliminate petrol and diesel cars by 2025, and Germany by 2030.
Following in the footsteps of some of their neighbouring countries, the UK is planning to ban the sales of all petrol and diesel-powered cars and vans by 2040. This would suggest that the UK is moving towards an all-electric vehicle nation.
Is it now time for electric vehicles to dominate our roads? Recent figures and news would suggest so. Here, VW dealership, Vindis Group explore how electric-powered engines are helping CO2 emissions and what the future looks like for the market.
Lowering your carbon footprint
Environmentally conscious individuals are turning to an electric car to reduce their carbon footprint in light of an abundance of research showing the pollution levels of petrol and diesel cars. It's no wonder countries are planning to stop the production of petrol and diesel cars in the future. Electric cars have the potential to reduce carbon emissions in the atmosphere, depending on the type of electricity that charges the battery. They are only as green as their 'juice' is. Batteries which are powered by coal actually do nothing to cut emissions – it's the natural gas electricity power that helps to reduce CO2 emissions. Natural gas electricity can result in less than half of the total emissions of the best combustion vehicle, including the manufacturing processes.
What does the current market look like?
The electric market hasn't always grown at the rate that it is now. In 2013, just 3,500 new electric vehicles were registered. However, the market has shown promising progression in the past few years. One indication of the electric vehicle growth might be seen in the huge shift away from diesels that's underway across Europe, where its market share has fallen by 3.6% over the last year.
As people back away from diesel cars, electric vehicle sales grow. Back in 2014, on average around 500 electric vehicles were registered per month – compared with 2017, where in the first seven months of the year, almost 26,000 cars have been registered, averaging just over 3,700 cars per month. It's a dramatic increase on 2014's figures.
What does the future hold?
The interest in electric cars does not show any signs of slowing down, and with countries announcing the banning of diesel and petrol, it'll be difficult for people to turn back. If plans to eliminate petrol and diesel cars in the UK by 2040 succeed, cities of electric cars will be cleaner and quieter than our present roads.
The industry does have some negatives though, and this is what seems to be preventing the nation from going fully electric. This means lighter batteries with longer amounts of charges and quicker charging periods being required across all models. Thankfully, some models with these points in mind have already started to appear on the market and global investment should ensure the progress continues.
Car brands have recognised the interest in electric and many of the super brands have gone on to design their own models. BMW and MINI revealed new electric plans in July, confirming the MINI EV. Mercedes have also announced their plan to enter Formula E, with the likes of Audi, BMW, Porsche and Jaguar as they attempt an all-electric racing series too.
When it comes to addressing global warming through changing driver habits, Germany and Norway are leading the way as they work towards their cleaner air goals. It's time for the UK to put a strategy in action. If plans are to go as planned, petrol and diesel vehicles will be taken off sale from 2040, meaning electric-only vehicles will be all that are sold on the market. This is something both drivers and brands need to keep in mind within the years approaching 2040.

Wines on the Wing 2016
by Eunice Fried
Meliá Hotels International, based in Spain, operates 350 hotels in 40 countries, but it offered none in the United States until opening INNSIDE New York Nomad in March. There, in an open, light-drenched space enhanced with earth and neutral shades, the hotel offers 300 guestrooms on 20 floors, a wellness suite and Impero Caffé, where well-known chef Scott Conant features Italian bistro cuisine. It also features two meeting rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows.
And this is where Global Traveler held its 12th annual Wines on the Wing International Airline Wine Competition, judging wines served on international first- and business-class flights throughout the world as well as a smaller third category, wines served on first- and business-class flights beginning and ending in North America. To judge the wines, GT invited 26 highly regarded wine professionals ranging from wine importers, wine retailers, winemakers and restaurant wine directors and sommeliers to wine educators, consultants and writers to taste the wines the airline entrants currently serve.
All wines were served in numbered glasses so the judges knew only the type of wine they were tasting, nothing more. They saw no bottles, no labels. They focused their decisions completely on the quality of the wine in the glass.
And they found much to admire. When the results were tallied, the airline that won first place among both International First Class and Business Class wines was Singapore Airlines, with its business-class category wines adding up to the highest score ever recorded in GT's 12 years of competition. Beyond that, its individual wines won a place in virtually every Top Wines list.
How does Singapore Airlines manage to offer such an amazing collection of wines? To begin, the wines are chosen by experts — Jeannie Cho Lee, Michael Hill Smith and Oz Clarke — who taste more than 1,000 wines each year before whittling their choices down. Then there is the quality of those choices. Singapore, for example, is the rare airline offering Grand Cru Burgundy and two prestige Champagne cuvées, Dom Pérignon and Krug Grand Cuvée.
"Our cellar is the result of extensive collaboration with the talented members of our international wine panel, a team that keeps us up to date in selecting many of the finest wines and Champagnes but also keeps us current on wine trends and developments," said Sek Eng Lee, regional vice president Americas, Singapore Airlines. He also congratulated GT's judges: "We are grateful to the experts convened by Global Traveler for recognizing our in-flight wine program."
In total, Singapore Airlines spends $16.5 million annually on its wine program. And it pulls the cork on 194,000 bottles of Champagne a year.
All Nippon Airways did exceedingly well, finishing second among International First Class airlines and third among all International Business entries, with many of its wines finishing among the top five in their categories.
American Airlines emerged as another major winner. Featured in both the Top International First Class and Top International Business Class categories, it also handily won as the Top North American First Class/Business Class Airline, sweeping that category with the Best North American Champagne/Sparkling Wine, Best North American White Wine and Best North American Red Wine.
American Airlines' wine program is a joint venture between Ken Chase, the airline's wine consultant, and Intervine, a Napa-based airline wine program management company. Together, they taste close to 10,000 wines each year in their efforts to select wines for American Airlines. A committee of American Airlines management tastes their selections semi-annually. In total, the airline serves passengers approximately 2 million bottles of wine per year.
Emirates also scored highly. Featured among both the Top Airlines International First Class and International Business Class, its François Villard Condrieu de Poncins 2014 was the highest-scoring white wine among International First Class entries.
"At Emirates, we're dedicated to providing the best experience for our passengers, and we have curated a wine program that is reflective of that promise," said Joost Heymeijer, senior vice president, catering, Emirates. "Receiving this award is truly a testament to our unrelenting effort to offer a consistently great product that delights passengers, and we believe this is what sets us apart. Our long-term planning strategy and investment is what allows us to procure rare and exclusive vintages that continue to surprise our passengers time and again."
To accomplish that, Emirates invests heavily in its wine program. Last year it spent more than $140 million, more than twice the amount spent the previous year, on wines for all three cabins. Many of those wines will be properly aged and not served for another 7 to 10 years. The increased investment, Emirates said, is in response to its expanding network.
Delta Air Lines finished second among the highest-scoring airlines in International Business Class, and its Business Class Champagne and Chardonnay were among the highest-scoring wines in their categories.
Of the airlines that participated in Global Traveler's 12th competition, 15 are members of three alliances: Star Alliance, oneworld and SkyTeam. The alliance whose members' wines totaled the highest averaged score was Star Alliance. Those Star Alliance members include Air Canada, All Nippon Airways, Brussels Airlines, Singapore Airlines and TAP Portugal.
Wine, to quote Ernest Hemingway, "is one of the most civilized things in the world and one of the most natural things in the world." Thanks to the excellent wines the airlines of the world provided, our judges enjoyed a most civilized, natural and enlightening afternoon.
To participate in Global Traveler's competition, airlines throughout the world that operate long-haul international first-class and/or business-class service are invited to submit two white wines, two red wines and one Champagne or other sparkling wine currently on their wine lists as well as the wine lists themselves. The same rules apply to our category of North American airlines that have first-class and/or business-class service.
The wines are coded and divided into flights, or categories, according to their type. For example, all New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc submitted would be served together, as would all California Zinfandel. Wines are presented to judges in code-marked glasses. Judges are told only the type of wine and, when appropriate (vintage Champagne, for example), the year. If judges feel a wine is flawed, a reserve bottle is poured. Professional assistants pour the wines, and GT staff monitor the tasting.
Each wine is judged on a modified Davis 20-point scale. The judges' individual scores for each wine are added and averaged, and the averaged scores of an airline's submissions are totaled. Individual wines with the highest scores and the airlines with the highest total scores win Wines on the Wing awards.

The Impact of Recent Mental Health Changes on Employment: New Evidence from Longitudinal Data

This study uses longitudinal data and four different measures of mental health to tease out the impact of psychiatric disorder onsets and recoveries on employment outcomes. Results suggest that developing a mental health problem leads to a significant increase in the probability of transitioning to non-employment, while a recovery increases the probability of return to work among the not employed with a mental health problem. No consistent effect was found on hours worked and earnings. Research and policy attention is needed with respect to early interventions such as job retention programmes to help workers with mental health problems remain employed as well as interventions that may lead to recovery and return to work. More research is needed especially with data and models that can differentiate between the effects of mental health onsets and recoveries on employment exit and return to work transitions.

Here we have var layout which requests the HTML control layout. After the user is given an option, if they choose Dark a cookie with the name Theme and value Dark will be saved to their browser, and it expires in one year.
Leave the option default for now because we will come back to it. Now run the page and select Dark as your theme; the page will refresh. Then in your chosen browser go to your stored cookies and you should see that a new cookie has been made called Theme (this should be under a folder called localhost by default) with the value Dark. For chrome users simply copy and paste this in the address bar of your browser: chrome://chrome/settings/cookies.
The domain which inserts the cookie can read the cookie. So for example, if thecodingguys.net writes a cookie called "Theme" Google.com cannot read that cookie. This will apply to sub-domains as well; m.thecodingguys.net cannot read a cookie which was created by www.thecodingguys.net.
Now the cookie should be inserted in your browser. Before we can read the cookie we need to make a new layout, so we will make a new style sheet. In the content folder copy the Site.css file and paste it in that folder, and re-name it to Site_Two.css. Next open the Site_Two.css find the body style and change the background colour to a colour of your choice (make sure it is different than the default).
The first If Statement requests the cookie by name, not the cookie value but just the cookie named Theme. We need to make sure it is not null (meaning it exists), and then if it exists read the value. If the value is Dark, and it will load the second style sheet. Now if the cookie is not there it will load the default style sheet.
Deleting a cookie is simple: on submit if the user selects the Default option the cookie is deleted. There is no direct command to delete the cookie, all we do is set the expiry date to a previous date. In this case it is set to the year before meaning it has expired and the browser will delete it.
Reading, writing and deleting cookies is quite simple. Cookies are very useful when you want to have full control overs users and provide extra functionality. Remember that cookies are client sided so users can disable them if they want to. Also remember that there are some laws (EU Law) regarding cookies, so make sure you inform users you are saving cookies.
At times you will need to access a database to perform tasks such as updating and removing information. Here, I will show you the most commonly used SQL statements such as reading from database, updating database and deleting database entries.
To connect to a database you use the Database.Open command then in brackets you give the database name. The database must be in the app_data folder (unless you specified it somewhere else in the web.config).
The database name must be wrapped in quotation marks; you do not specify the database extension.

To continue the last tutorial about how to insert data page in ASP.NET Web Pages 3.1, today I'm gonna tell you how to read the data page that we have inserted with example code.
The first thing to do is create a variable db which opens the database. Then, you will have another variable called GameName which is set to get the RouteValue from the URL (we will use routing for clean URLS). Beneath that is an If Statement which checks if GameName is null, if it is, the user is redirected back to the home page.
The data variable is now set to retrieve data from the database and only for the current page, since the where clause has filtered out the rows. Usually you only want to retrieve one row and place the data where you would like it to go. This is easily done when you type data after the dot (period): you specify the column name and the data for that row will be displayed. You can create the ID variable because it's a need to output the result a few times, as seen below.
The Html.Raw method will render the HTML properly, and this is another built-in ASP.NET security feature. If you do not use Html.Raw, you will get the HTML source printing out. The ?id=@id is a parameter and is used to pass data to the other pages. For example, when the user goes to the update page it will request the value of ID and will load that row from the database. So if ID= 1 it will load row 1. The same applies for delete page, although instead of updating the page it will be deleted. The returnurl as seen above is used to redirect the user back if the user rejects the confirmation to delete the page.
This time we used the db.Query method. This gets all the rows from the table. Then we displayed all the results in an unordered list, which will allow us to view the games list from the default page instead of having to type it in the address bar.

You can also take advantage of our Windows & ASP.NET Hosting support with Unlimited Domain, Unlimited Bandwidth, Unlimited Disk Space, etc. You will not be charged a cent for trying our service for the next 3 days. Once your trial period is complete, you decide whether you'd like to continue.
In this post, I will tell you how to insert data page with example code in ASP.NET Webpages 3.1.
Then you have created 5 variables which you will use to collect the user-entered data and then insert the data into a database. The second variable is a DateTime data type. The second column in the database is for DateTime. The user will not have to specify the ReleaseDate, as it has been set as the current UTC date and time.
This will flag an error because the second column expects a data type of DateTime. It is good practise to keep the order of the columns as they appear in the table.
One thing that should be explained is the <script> tag. We will use CKEditor for our <textarea>, as this allows us to add HTML styles.
Finaaly, you can run the page and add a new entry, and remember the title for the GameName. Make sure the GameName does not have any spaces or characters; stick with numbers, letters and dashes only.
As you know, ASP.NET comes in three types: MVC, Web Forms and WebPages.
1. Web Forms - This is the classic ASP.NET framework; it has all the server side controls and is used for creating dynamic websites. It does have a steep learning curve and controls most of the mark-up so there is little control. It is event-driven and is good for RAD (Rapid Application Development).
2. MVC - Model-View-Controller, this framework also has a steep learning curve, however, it is ideal for developers who like to have control over their websites and like to separate logic and UI. It is ideal for team based work.
Today, I will introduce to you about ASP.NET WebPages.
You can use ASP.NET WebPages to create dynamic web pages. A simple HTML web page is static; its content is determined by the fixed HTML markup that's in the page. Dynamic pages like those you create with ASP.NET Web Pages let you create the page content on the fly, by using code. Dynamic pages let you do all sorts of things too. You can ask a user for input by using a form and then change what the page displays or how it looks. You can take information from a user, save it in a database, and then list it later. You can send email from your site. You can interact with other services on the web (for example, a mapping service) and produce pages that integrate information from those sources. Most examples of using ASP.NET Web Pages with Razor syntax use C#. But the Razor syntax also supports Visual Basic. To program an ASP.NET web page in Visual Basic, you create a web page with a .vbhtml filename extension, and then add Visual Basic code.
You'll need to use IDE when working with Web Pages and the ideal IDE that will compatible with ASP.NET WebPages is Microsoft WebMatrix. Microsoft WebMatrix is a small IDE which was released alongside ASP.NET Web Pages. WebMatrix is a tool that integrates a web page editor, a database utility, a web server for testing pages, and features for publishing your website to the Internet. WebMatrix is free, and it's easy to install and easy to use. It also works for just plain HTML pages, as well as for other technologies like PHP.
With WebMatrix you can start from scratch with an empty web site and a blank page, or build on open source applications from a "Web Application Gallery". Both PHP and ASP.NET applications are available, such as Umbraco, DotNetNuke, Drupal, Joomla, WordPress and many more. WebMatrix also has built-in tools for security, search engine optimization, and web publishing. The skills and code you develop with WebMatrix can seamlessly be transformed to fully professional ASP.NET applications.
But, you don't actually have to use WebMatrix to work with ASP.NET Web Pages. You can create pages by using a text editor too, for example, and test pages by using a web server that you have access to.

1997 – Washington – Cassie James
ADAPT's two week Action in Washington D.C, happened after working with Legislators for three years. Promises had been made and now we had to ensure that they were kept. Some leaders stayed the entire two weeks. They felt the extra pounce would get some things done! People reported to me that the first week was great because having two hundred and fifty people made the group more manageable, people could remember everyone's name, but being ADAPT we like to be together and we missed the people we didn't see.
I arrived the second week; Sunday was the usual meetings and workshops.
When Monday the 21st of June, 1997 came people wanted this to be the hard hit! ADAPT wanted action. They worked three years with Newt's office and we where being told that they would introduce the bill but we had not yet seen a written bill. Tension and anger where growing, too much talk and not enough action! We expected a long and hard hit even an overnight Vigil. We marched to the Capital and staged a Newt watch right in the Rotunda, acting as if we might be moving in for good!
Our first deadline was 12 noon it went bye and Newt had nothing new to report "they are working with the legislative Council and needed time", thus, ADAPT agreed to wait.
As we waited a few of us, went off to talk to legislator trying to gain support on our issues. Explaining that people needed choice, why couldn't people live in their own homes? Some inmates shared stories about the abuse they faced in nursing homes. Minority Leader Dick Gephardt finally agreed to speak with a small group of us and committed his support for the principals of CASA, also New Mexico ADAPT worked with Senator Pete Domenici right outside the Senate floor and they presented him with an ADAPT T-shirt.
By five Pm, we where making progress with getting feelers out on what we wanted, gaining congressional support. At six the Police started to worry we would never leave, as we chanted our homes not nursing homes, the police were communicating with Gingrich's office and came and reported that the legislative Council would sit down with a small group of us in the basement of the Rayburn building. Together we would write our legislation. This process took hours. The large group of ADAPT our power, supported us with a vigil outside at the horse shoe of the Rayburn.
Bob Kafka was so sick in those negotiations, he was tired, had a fever and chills, this did not affect his brain power, he was able to speak about the changes needed in Medicaid. Steve Gold was supporting us with his knowledge of Medicaid and especially of the money follows the person piece of CASA. Also, Mike O and me kept our focus on consumer control and co-pays so working crips could get services and Zan with her brains helped with language. Steve and Zan went to the horseshoe and kept the real power behind us, our soldiers informed about this process. A great team, ADAPT showed it power by staying.
At 12 AM, finally our small group came out to the horseshoe with legislation in hand. Yes, legislation ADAPT could be proud to have introduced and we were promised that this would happen before we left Washington. We said great, because we are not leaving Washington until it is introduced.
On Tuesday we went to the US Department of Transportation, because they were years behind in developing regulations for the over the road bus system like Greyhound. Even with a smaller group about 250 people we blocked all four entrances and many people got inside. As always we came prepared with our Chants "We will ride, Access is a civil right" and some of us chained ourselves to the doors. At first they could not reach Secretary Slater as we put the pressure on, with our bag of tricks, handcuffs and all, finally they reach Slater who agreed to meet with ADAPT in three weeks.
The People United will never be defeated and with that in mind it was back to the hotel.
Meanwhile, Mike Auberger gets a call that CASA now was introduced as MiCASA HR 2020 we could not have requested better house numbers. Boy that was a great day it seems our constant two-week push was paying off with real results.
Wednesdays we decided was best used to get legislators on board. ADAPT lobbies as only ADAPT could – breaking up in color groups of four and delivering our new legislation to at least 400 offices, in three different buildings. I think we shocked many legislators who had only seen us demonstrate. Now we were educating why we go to such lengths! Only ex-inmates can share stories of neglect, abuse and our desire to have everyone in America get a real choice. Most people would rather be in their own home. ADAPT's passion on wanting everyone to have the community based services that wanted them shined through.
Another small group of representatives went to the White House the old Executive Office building. This meeting was given as a result of the first week of Actions. The Democrats were quite clear that the Republicans killed a bill last year and they would not support a bill that a Republicans were supporting. They wanted studies, pilots etc. They committed to pay someone to look at the barriers that Medicaid regulations created. The best comment came from one of us, Kathleen Kleinman who summed up the meeting with every three minutes someone in a Nursing home dies. While we have been talking 27 people have died! Let's free our people.
Now it was time for ADAPT to party!

Republican Women Applaud Confirmation of Trump Supreme Court Nominee Neil Gorsuch
'American system of government working for the American people'
WASHINGTON - "Today we witnessed the American system of government once again working for the American people as the United States Senate confirmed President Donald Trump's nomination of Neil Gorsuch to the highest court in the land," stated Carrie Almond, president of the National Federation of Republican Women (NFRW).
The Senate confirmed the nomination of Justice Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court today by a vote of 54-45.
"After more than a year of speculation we are gratified to know that an individual of Justice Gorsuch's character, calibre and experience will fill this seat on the bench," Almond added. "We also are pleased to see an end to opposition threats and partisan bickering on this issue as President Trump's first nominee to the Supreme Court has now been approved."
The NFRW understands the importance of a strong conservative filling this vacancy created by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia in February 2016, and has supported the Senate confirmation of Gorsuch since his nomination on Jan. 31.
"At our spring board meeting in March, the NFRW unanimously adopted a resolution calling on the Senate to confirm Justice Gorsuch immediately," Almond continued. "Throughout the confirmation process we have called upon our members to contact their senators to make their support known."
Justice Gorsuch, of Boulder, Colo., has had a vast and distinguished legal career, clerking for Supreme Court Justices Byron White and Anthony Kennedy and running a successful private practice from 1995 to 2005. He joined the U.S. Department of Justice as principle deputy to the Associate Attorney General preceding his appointment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit.
"The 2016 election cycle was not just about the office of president," Almond stressed. "Many voters were also stating their belief that the highest court in the land must be protected from extreme left control and destruction of the traditional values upon which our country was built."
"President Trump is fulfilling his promise to the voters by appointing qualified conservative justices," Almond added. "We will continue to support him and our elected legislators as they strive to Make America Great Again."
Founded in 1938, the National Federation of Republican Women is the largest and most influential Republican women's group in the nation, proudly representing the party that first made it possible for women to vote in the U.S. The NFRW works to increase the effectiveness and relevance of women in the cause of good government. Our mission remains to recruit and elect Republican candidates, promote the principles of the Republican Party, educate the public, and inform the media.

Note that no one can determine, or has determined, dissolution characteristics of any product using the currently suggested apparatuses and/or methods. It has all been an illusion!
The purpose of a dissolution test is to determine or establish drug dissolution or release characteristics of a product, in particular tablet or capsule. To determine dissolution characteristics, or any other characteristic in general, one would require a method and/or tester or apparatus. Prior to its use, it must be established that the method/tester is capable of providing an expected outcome, i.e. in this case the method/tester is capable of providing dissolution characteristics of a (tablet/capsule) product. In other words, the dissolution method/tester should be qualified and validated.
Unfortunately, at present, suggested and commonly used dissolution testers have never been shown as qualified and validated dissolution testers. Therefore, reported results, and by extension conclusions drawn from these results, are of limited or no relevance or use. It is all an illusionary science and interpretation of data/results.
The crescent shape spindle has been proposed to address this present-day difficulty. The use of the spindle provides an ability to test products using a common, simple testing and product-independent approach.

Severe floods in Gujarat claim 213 lives, death toll expected to rise
At least 213 people have been killed since July 21, 2017 in India's state of Gujarat after extremely heavy monsoon rains hit the state causing severe flooding. Hundreds of cities and villages were devastated and more than 130 000 people evacuated.
Gujarat authorities said the state's death toll, which jumped by 90 in the past day as floodwaters started to recede from low-lying areas, was likely to increase as new victims were discovered. "Only after a postmortem is conducted we can officially confirm the death of a person," an official at the Gujarat emergency control room told Agence France-Presse. "Since many bodies were found, postmortems took time, hence the sudden jump in numbers."
According to Times of India, the maximum deaths have happened since July 21 in Banaskantha district that was pounded by incessant rainfall and due to a release of massive quantity of water from the local dams later. Control room sources said that 61 deaths, mostly due to drowning, have been reported from Banaskantha alone.
"This is the worst flood of the century in Banaskantha," Chief Minister Vijay Rupani said.
The flooding has paralyzed Gujarat, with flights diverted from the airport in its largest city, Ahmedabad, more than 150 factories shut down, and an estimated 50 000 cotton farms waterlogged. More than 4 000 animals were thought to have been killed so far, according to The Guardian
Lightning storms in Odisha and another state, Jharkhand, killed 21 people on Monday, July 31 with more inclement weather expected throughout this week. Most of the victims were working in fields when lightning struck them, disaster management authority officials said.
