Kamala Harris: Immigrant Rule About 'Vilifying People'
By Sandy Fitzgerald | Monday, 12 August 2019 01:31 PM
Short URL|
Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Kamala Harris Monday blasted President Donald Trump and his administration's new rule denying residency for immigrants who do not meet certain income guidelines, saying it is another example of the president's agenda "about vilifying people."
"It's just an ongoing campaign of his to vilify a whole group of people, as he does with so many things, and to be ignorant about the history of our country, who we are, how we were founded and what our values are," Harris told CNN during an interview from Iowa. "(Trump) wants everyone to be distracted from the fact that he has betrayed so many people and has actually done very little that has been productive in the best interest of American families."
The president, through his policies, has been "criminalizing people," including "separating children from their parents in the name of border security when it's a human rights abuse being committed by the U.S. government," Harris added.
She noted that in the most recent raids in Mississippi, almost half of those detained had to be released.
Meanwhile, Harris also commented about former White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci saying he no longer backs Trump's candidacy, saying that she plans to compete for everyone's vote, even those from disaffected Republicans like him.
"I also know what the American people want, and their president is someone who is focused on the things that keep them up at night, the things that are weighing on them, their immediate issues and concerns," she said. "Donald Trump betrayed a lot of people."

Succulent, seasonal spring lamb marinated in rosemary, thyme, garlic and olive oil, pan seared on the hob and then finished in the oven. Served with a light salad of tender shoots and leaves, ripe avocado, salty feta and a fresh mint dressing.
Cook's NoteChoose the thicker, leaner, upper part of the leg and ask the butcher to bone and butterfly the lamb joint for you. This creates a larger surface area for the marinade and allows quicker, more even cooking.
Pat dry any moisture from the lamb and using a sharp knife make around 15-20 short cuts into the skin of the joint, approximately 3cm long and 1cm deep. Turn the meat over and make 3-4 shallow long slashes in the deeper parts.
Place the joint, skin side up, into a large flat shallow dish. Combine the marinade ingredients, but do not add salt at this stage. Rub the marinade into the meat, pushing it into the cuts. Cover and place into a refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours, or overnight if possible.
Remove the lamb from the marinade and drain away any excess liquid. Leave at room temperature for 20 minutes before seasoning with the sea salt.
Pre heat the oven to: 200°C/400°F/Gas Mark 6/Fan over 180°C for step 7.
Place the empty grill over a low to medium heat on the hob and allow it to heat for 7-10 minutes. Test the grill temperature by dropping a few drops of cold water over the hot surface. If it sizzles and the water evaporates almost immediately, it is hot and ready for use. If the water produces steam and has no sizzle, heat the pan for a little longer and repeat the test. Use an oven mitt, handle glove or a thick cloth for gripping the cast iron handle at all times.
Place the lamb skin side down on the dry, hot grill and sear for 2-3 minutes. Turn the meat over and sear the other side. Repeat this process.
Place the grill into the oven and continue to cook for 23-30 minutes depending on how pink you like your lamb.
Remove from the oven, lightly cover with foil and rest the meat in the pan for 10-15 minutes.
Place the prepared leaves, shoots, avocado and feta into a bowl. Whisk together the dressing ingredients and pour over the salad before lightly tossing the ingredients together.
To serve, place the meat onto a board, slice thickly and serve with the pan juices poured over. Accompany with the dressed salad.

Remember pearl-snap Western shirts, Scrubbies jeans, and denim jackets, George W. Groovy, Cowboy Kings, Red Straps?
Take a trip down memory lane and relive the GWG story! Remember the slogans "Anything Goes," "They wear longer, because they're made stronger," and Wayne Gretzky's declaration that "I grew up in GWGs"? GWGs have been a cultural icon in Canada since the company's founding in 1911. Here, at long last, is the complete, lushly illustrated history of the Great Western Garment Company, whose products were staples for some generations and defined cool for others.
This lavish book includes archival photographs, advertisements, product photos, and insights on the long history of this iconic Canadian company. Begun in Edmonton, GWG not only manufactured jeans, but also helped immigrant women support their families, becoming a model of management and labour working collaboratively. GWG eventually became the largest workwear manufacturing company in Canada, providing different styles of work and leisure clothing for men, women, and children, and for the military during both world wars. Although Levis acquired the company during the 1960s and '70s and closed the last factories in 2004, the GWG brand remains a part of pop culture. It is firmly fixed in the Canadian psyche and still holds a place in Canadian hearts.
Catherine C. Cole is an Edmonton-based arts and heritage consultant. Her exhibitions and publications deal with Western Canadian labour and social and industrial history. She is the project manager and guest curator of the virtual exhibitions Piece by Piece: The GWG Story and Before E-Commerce: A History of Canadian Mail Order Catalogues and the author of Inventive Spirit: Alberta Patents from 1905-1975.

"[A] fabulous new publication . . . Well-researched and informative." — Scene
"In GWG: Piece by Piece, Catherine C. Cole does a delightful job in telling the tale of one of the country's most beloved garment makers, Edmonton-based GWG. The book's softover coffee-table format lends itself well to telling a largely visual tale." — Canada's History

The Bodyboard Blade incorporates new rubber replacement qualities. This has enhanced the kick to thrust ratio, providing super propulsionary Response. The blend shows the softer kick rubber surrounding the foot pocket, ankle strap and contrail down over the toe area, finishing at the end of the blade. The stiff rubber runs down either side of the foot pocket, across the base and down to the tips of the blade. The effect of the hard rubber structurally enhances the flex rate, allowing the softer rubber to flex beyond its normal contours. Thus scooping more water and fit the spring affect, driving more water off the end of the blade, propelling the user with more velocity.


Americans intend to spend $5.9 billion to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, according to the National Retail Federation's annual survey.
If you're planning to buy something green to avoid getting pinched this March 17, we have some tips that will save you green and spare your wallet from feeling a pinch, too.
But if you'd rather eat something a little less traditional, you'll find plenty of holiday deals and coupons for food. Last year, Bruegger's Bagels offered $2 off a Big Bagel Bundle in honor of the holiday, and California Tortilla offered free green chips and queso with a purchase. To keep on top of the deals, sign up for the mailing lists of your favorite restaurants or follow them on social media.
So how do you do it? Categorize. A pricey pub crawl or dinner out would fall under the "wants" section of your spending. At NerdWallet, we recommend the 50/30/20 budget. According to this method, wants should account for no more than 30% of your monthly take-home income. Needs — like rent and groceries — account for 50%, while savings and debt repayment account for the remaining 20%.

Q: How to hold information for specific inputs What I want to do is to save time. For example say that you have array A. 3 inputs are given. "4,1000,5". You will search for the number "5" in between the indexes 4 and 1000 of A. Let's say that there is no "5" in this space and you want to hold this information. So that in an another search when you have to search for 5 in between some smaller number than 4, say 2, and some larger number than 1000, say 2000, you will not search for it in the previous space. Search time will be reduced.
I generalized the question, I'm not looking for an example which is only valid for this specific example.(you can say though)

A: You could do it exactly as you described. Create a datatype consisting of the information of your search (from-index, to-index, searched number) as well as the result (unsuccessful, or the found index). For every search you save this information in a list. When a new search is started you could first check if there is something relevant in the cache. If there is, you can limit the search space.
However, do mind that the cache you are building up with this technique can get out of hand pretty quickly and could (if there are a lot of searches done) get even bigger than the array itself, eliminating the possible speed gain. I don't think that's a viable way to optimize array searches. This would efficiently work only in very specific cases and I would probably not recommend doing this as a general optimization.

Just figured I'd share some of my photos from my little family UTV rental trip over there, which just so happened to be the 5th.
There's me foolishly waving for a photo, that was about 30min into the day.
The river had overflowed its banks and made a big lake that almost encroached the trail.
Poser shot of the tires.
This is what our windscreen looked like on the UTV, we kept having to stop and poor water (thank god it rained so much) on it just so we could barely see.
Good thing those are my crappy shoes. It felt like an extra 20lbs on your feet.
The tires after I did a ~30 degree muddy, hill climb in 2HI, almost lost traction 80% of the way there, but then threw it in 4HI at the last second.
Trying to get the wheel airborne - sort of worked.
Oops. Good thing we get to powerwash it out later.
The UTV before we washed it off for the day.
Unfortunately, the video of me doing the hillclimb again in 2LO was too big to upload (I don't have them, I have to get emailed them).
All and all, about 4.5 hrs of muddy, slippery fun, but very cold when you weren't wearing your helmet.
(Also, just a note for anyone that isn't familiar with DP, these shots are not from the truck park area, they're from the rest of DP where dirtbikes, ATVs and UTVs play around).

K-GMT Science Program Guidelines for CFHT/MMT
The Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT) project is an international collaboration to design, build and operate a 25m telescope for research in astrophysics and cosmology. KASI, as a representative of Korean Astronomical Society, participates in the GMT project as a consortium partner (K-GMT Project). The mission of K-GMT Science Group is to provide Korean Astronomical Society with necessary resources to boost up their scientific capability in the field of observational astronomy and astrophysics toward the coming era of GMT. With a guidance of K-GMT Science & Instrument Working Group, the K-GMT Science Group is rolling out K-GMT Science Program to provide an access to mid-sized (4m - 6m) optical telescopes. This program aims to boost up the scientific capability in the field of observational astronomy and astrophysics by providing required observing facilities. There is no limit on the fields of science that prospect proposals shall aim to address. However, preference will be given to proposals with sciences that can be applicable to GMT in the near future.
This program will be initially available for 3 years starting from 2014, and will be extended further depending on the demand and the available resource. The available telescopes and available number of nights may vary.
K-GMT Science Group (KGSG) invites the application of science proposals in the field of observational astronomy and astrophysics. KGSG will provide selected programs with access to the mid-to-large sized telescopes for the accomplishment of their scientific goals. The proposers should consult the call for proposals of each year, which will contain more detailed information including the list of available telescopes. The prospect proposers are advised to contact or visit website of each telescope for more detailed information on the available detectors, observing modes, etc.
The telescope time will be provided through the agreement between KASI and the partners. The observers through this program will follow the nominal rules and convention of each observatory if not explicitly stated otherwise. The observers will be provided with the same level of support as a normal user of the observatories.
Phase II Proposals
Depending on the telescope and the observing mode, submission of phase 2 proposals may become necessary once the proposal is accepted (usually when observations are done in the queue mode). The phase 2 proposals should be taken care of by proposers following the relevant instructions provided by each observatory.
Investigator Policy
The eligible PI's of the proposals are researchers affiliated with Korean research institutes or universities. However, at least one researcher affiliated with Korean research institutes or universities holding a position in the level of assistant professors(조교수)/staff researchers(선임연구원) or higher must join the proposal as PI or Co-I.
If the PI is a graduate student, then his or her supervising professor should join the proposal and must be identified.
Data Handling Policy
All raw data obtained through this program will be open to public use by Korean astronomical society in 12 months after the last observing run. The PI of each program is supposed to upload the raw data to a data archiving server at KASI. Detailed information on the data archiving server and how to upload the data will be prepared and provided to PIs when they are ready. In addition, the PIs are encouraged to provide the processed data to the Korean community in coordination with the K-GMT Science Group.
Authorship & Acknowledgement
By applying to this K-GMT Science Program, the PI of the proposal is advised to follow the K-GMT Authorship Guideline. The K-GMT Authorship Guideline will be provided to PIs of the successful proposals and the most recent version of the Guideline is available on the web as well as upon request to KGSG.
The relevant requirement for this program is that any scientific papers based on the observations supported by this program are advised to be prepared in close collaboration with K-GMT project office, and that, at least, the principal investigator and project scientist of K-GMT project are supposed to serve as co-authors of the paper. Furthermore, the papers should include an acknowledgement to K-GMT Science Program. More specific instructions will be provided to successful PIs.
In addtion, you should include the general acknowledgment for the telescope(s) that is used in your paper. Please refer following pages for relavant information.

About Nury I'm a science writer based in a creativity research lab at a university in Hong Kong. I love reading Science 2.0 and the popular science journals but I often find myself having a different point of view—perhaps because I work in China, and am surrounded by different ways of thinking. (My mother is Buddhist, my father Muslim, my wife Christian, and my country is atheist by law.) This has left me fascinated by metaphysics and I am intrigued by the implications of theories about the multiverse and so on. I write science and history books for young people, and have good publishers, including Scholastic. But I have a range of interests, including particle physics and quantum mechanics. I've written lots of books, and was once shortlisted for a minor sci-fi prize for a children's book I wrote on relativity.

Butterfly watching and photography is a fast-growing hobby, and for better or worse we've caught the bug! Since 2011 Tanager Tours has been working to promote butterfly tours. Whether you've already discovered the amazing world of these beautiful insects or are wondering what it's all about, we can arrange a butterfly-focused tour for you.
Many of our routes are based on birding tours, but butterflying trips typically have a more relaxed pace, as each day at a site is likely to bring a different suites of butterflies. Central Peru has some of the best butterflying sites in the world, and our tour there is highly recommended as a first trip, though Manu is of course always a good choice too. Take a look at some of our sample itineraries via the links at right or below.
Central Peru has some of the country's best butterflying destinations, and on this tour we hit a few of our favourites. Pampa Hermosa is perhaps the crown jewel of the route with its amazing concentration of firetips, while the road above Pozuzo has an excellent variety of habitats and overwhelming diversity of species from all families. For high-elevation fanatics (a.k.a. satyr-lovers!) Bosque Shollet is an excellent destination. Although we do not visit any true lowland sites on this trip, we expect a great variety of butterflies and wonderful photography opportunities.
Although it is famous as a birding route, the Manu Road offers spectacular opportunities for butterfly observation as well. We focus especially on the lower and middle cloud forest elevations at 1000-2000 m., with a few days higher and lower too. We can expect a great variety of satyrs at the upper end of this range, and the diversity of skipperlings (Dalla) along this road is incredible. At the lower end of our transect we'll find many species from all families.


French DJ/Producer based in Berlin, Emorine is part of the emerging generation of artists which are eager to explore new territories of electronic music.Since his early childhood, when he learned music theory and then discovered how to play saxophone and guitar, music has always been his passion. He entered the universe of D-jing when he was 19, playing as resident for several years in a small club of Luz-Saint-Sauveur as well as in other events, and creating his own regular podcast for a local radio. Driven by an ever-growing interest in electronic music, he soon decided to master the universe of synthesizer techniques and to devote himself fully to his own productions.In 2014, Emorine moved to Berlin to expand further his musical horizons and feed his artistic inspiration and creativity with new musical influences. Inspired by an eclectic range of soundscapes (from techno, deep house to minimal or bass music), Emorine has developed his own and unique aesthetic and musical universe, characterized by a subtle blend of melodic synths, pounding beats, sharp percussion timbres together with dark and ambient textures. His productions can be seen as delicate or melancholic and subtly powerful at the same time, revealing a refined taste for the potential of melody and a meticulous care for details. This allows listeners to discover and explore the mental and emotional landscapes that Emorine wants to create and share.Following several releases on Inclusif label (including a debut track "Pop on the Moon" on Various Room 91 supported by Laurent Garnier,), he released "Sick World" on Miami-Based imprint Magician On Duty (Miami). Upcoming EPs will soon be out on Canadian Techgnosis Records and Mono.Noise from Berlin. This is only the beginning of a promising journey and much more is yet to come from Emorine's creative mind.

He passed through the open gate, followed by Nightspore, and knocked vigorously at the front door. The knocker was thick with dust and had obviously not been used for a long time. He put his ear to the door, but could hear no movements inside the house. He then tried the handle; the door was locked.

"Professional Speech & Hearing Specialists, Ocala, Florida is where I have purchased hearing aids since buying my first aids in January 1999. I have purchased three sets of aids over the last 18 years, the latest of which was this month, October 2017. I can't say enough about the good service I have had from them. They have always been concerned about any issues and very willing and able to do what is needed to remedy the problems. They are very courteous, friendly and make me feel very comfortable and welcome.

Q: Chrome extension REJECT when inline installation checked I made custom chrome extension which loads external javascript file (file is hosted on amazon s3) using XMLHttpRequest. Code snippet which calls this XMLHttpRequest is in separate file, and included in manifest.json under content_scripts:
   {
   "background": {
      "scripts": [ "background.js" ]
   },

}

If I don't check inline install, it is accepted and published in few minutes.
But when I check inline install and choose site, review process takes a long time and extension becomes rejected. Domain is secured (https). And  tag containing info about extension is added to site's head tag.
<link rel="chrome-webstore-item" href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/itemID">

So, the rejection reason is probably related to inline installation method, and there should be some trick? Anyone for help? Is there something wrong I did?

Victim details sexual assault allegedly at the hands of Pastor Omotoso
Eastern Cape / 15 October 2018, 2:04pm / Raahil Sain
Nigerian Pastor Timothy Omotoso faces a string of charges including rape, and the alleged trafficking of more than 30 girls and women who were from various branches of his church to a house in Umhlanga, KwaZulu-Natal, where he allegedly sexually exploited them. Picture: Raahil Sain/ANA
The witness testimony in this story contains graphic detail of the alleged attack.
Port Elizabeth - Cheryl Zondi, 22, who claimed she was sexually assaulted by Nigerian Pastor Timothy Omotoso said she believed God was on her alleged attacker's side, the Port Elizabeth High Court heard on Monday.
Zondi said she waived her right to be unnamed in the sex trial involving Omotoso and his two alleged henchwomen because she wanted the world to know what type of person he is.
She was under cross-examination and questioned extensively by defence attorney Peter Daubermann on her aspirations to become a professional singer while being a member of the Jesus Dominion International (JDI) church.
Daubermann asked about her first encounter with the televangelist at his mission house in Durban. At the time she was 14 years old when she was summoned to his bedroom, she testified.
Zondi said she was told by Omotoso to lock the door as she entered.
"You were in a room alone with a man. You say you were scared. What did you think was going to happen? Didn't you wonder why the door was locked?" asked Daubermann.
Zondi replied that it was scary but it was also a privilege because Omotoso was thought to be a man of God. She said she wanted him to be her musical mentor and thought that he would train her.
The teenager knelt beside Omotoso who was in his bed under the sheets. She said he signalled for her to sit next to him on the bed.
She detailed the sexual assault, claiming that Omotoso hugged her tightly, pulled on her bra strap and pushed her on the bed.
Zondi said while she was fully clothed she felt his erect penis between her thighs.
She told the court that she did not resist and was aware that she was being sexually attacked and knew that such behaviour was wrong.
Zondi said she thought she might be raped.
"Why did you not scream, mam? You knew there were other people in the house, they would hear you?"
Zondi said she was scared and the girls in the house were loyal to Omotoso.
She further explained why she did not dare to object to his advances, saying she was shocked and confused and just said to him: "I just have to get used to the way things work in this house."
Zondi said that even if she screamed for help nobody would have intervened.
She said that at the time she thought God would be on Omotoso's side in committing a sexual assault.
"But this is against God's teaching... How can a man of God be capable of doing these things you describe. You said you knew what he was doing was wrong," said Daubermann.
Zondi explained again that she was too scared to oppose Omotoso because anyone who opposed him would die, so she allowed him to continue.
She said she was young and impressionable.
At night, Zondi said she was again summoned to his room where she thought she would definitely get raped.
"I thought he would rape me and I should allow him to do what he wanted to do. I did not want to face the wrath of God," said Zondi.
This time she was instructed to remove her clothing, and Zondi said Omotoso penetrated her vagina slightly but was careful not to go all the way. She further described him rubbing himself against her genital area until he climaxed.
Daubermann then asked how many centimetres of Omotoso's penis had penetrated her, at which point Judge Mandela Makaula said he would not allow the question, to murmurs in the public gallery. Daubermann accused Makaula of hampering his cross-examination.
The 58-year-old televangelist faces a string of charges including rape, and the alleged trafficking of more than 30 girls and women who were from various branches of his church to a house in Umhlanga, KwaZulu-Natal, where he allegedly sexually exploited them.
Alleged accomplices Lusanda Solani, 36 of Durban, and Zukiswa Sitho, 28, of Port Elizabeth, allegedly recruited girls all over the country and monitored their movements in the houses where they were being kept.

No evidence that vitamin D reduces cancer or heart deaths in women
November 7, 2011 in Nutrition Topics in the News, Vitamins, Minerals, Supplements, Women's Health
A study of postmenopausal women found no significant mortality benefit from vitamin D after controlling for health risk factors such as abdominal obesity. The only exception was that thin-waisted women with low vitamin D levels might have some increased risk.
The results agree with advice issued last year by the Institute of Medicine that cautioned against vitamin D having a benefit beyond bone health.
Doctors agree that vitamin D promotes bone health, but a belief that it can also prevent cancer, cardiovascular disease and other causes of death remains to be proven.
Now, a new study finds that vitamin D did not confer benefits against mortality in postmenopausal women after controlling for key health factors such as abdominal obesity.
The researchers say there's not enough evidence to do anything about vitamin D levels if it's not in regard to bone health.
In the study, researchers analyzed data from 2,429 postmenopausal women aged 50 to 79 who participated in the Women's Health Initiative study, a clinical trial that studied 36,000 women.
They tracked blood levels of vitamin D in the women and their risk of dying over a 10-year period. They not only looked at death from all causes but also focused on cancer and cardiovascular disease.
In all, 225 of the women died, including 79 from cardiovascular disease and 62 from cancer.
The researchers expected to find some protective effect against dying from these two causes from vitamin D. At first glance -- controlling only for age, ethnicity, and whether women took part in a calcium and vitamin D supplement trial -- that's what the data showed.
But after accounting for several more health factors such as smoking, history of cardiovascular disease, history of cancer, alcohol consumption, and waist circumference, the link between vitamin D levels and lower mortality risk disappeared.
The one exception was that women with thinner waistlines (less than 35 inches) and with the lowest vitamin D levels seemed to have a greater risk of dying from any cause within the 10-year study period.
The researchers can only speculate about why abdominal obesity was an especially important factor to control for in their analysis. Abdominal obesity is associated with several negative health indicators that may overwhelm any modest protective effect vitamin D might have.
They also point out that fat tissue can store vitamin D, possibly meaning that women with larger waistlines are storing more of the vitamin and less is available to be circulated in the blood to tissues.
A major new trial of vitamin D supplements and health called VITAL is getting underway and will likely provide answers about what vitamin D is good for.
For now, the researchers say there's not enough evidence to do anything about our vitamin D levels if it's not in regard to bone health.

Productivity in the U.S. Services Sector New Sources of Economic Growth
By Jack E. Triplett (Author), Barry P. Bosworth (Author)
https://www.whsmith.co.uk/products/productivity-in-the-us-services-sector-new-sources-of-economic-growth/jack-e-triplett/barry-p-bosworth/paperback/9780815783350-01-000.html £34.95
The services industries -which include jobs ranging from flipping hamburgers to providing investment advice -can no longer be characterized, as they have in the past, as a stagnant sector marked by low productivity growth. They have emerged as one of the most dynamic and innovative segments of the U.S. economy, now accounting for more than three-quarters of gross domestic product. During the 1990s, 19 million additional jobs were created in this sector, while growth was stagnant in the goods-producing sector. Here, Jack Triplett and Barry Bosworth analyze services sector productivity, demonstrating that fundamental changes have taken place in this sector of the U.S. economy. They show that growth in the services industries fueled the post-1995 expansion in the U.S. productivity and assess the role of information technology in transforming and accelerating services productivity. In addition to their findings for the services sector as a whole, they include separate chapters for a diverse range of industries within the sector, including transportation and communications, wholesale and retail trade, and finance and insurance. The authors also examine productivity measurement issues, chiefly statistical methods for measuring services industry output. They highlight the importance of making improvements within the U.S. statistical system to provide the more accurate and relevant measures essential for analyzing productivity and economic growth.

Woman rides for child abuse awareness
By Beth Waters
For the Sun-News
LAS CRUCES - Along her sometimes desolate and daunting journey, Diane Lea ponders the plight of persons with greater challenges than her own.
"In taking up the causes of some of these people I'm so honored. I'm in awe of their struggles."
As a solitary cyclist traversing the terrain from California to Florida, Lea stopped in Las Cruces recently. She told an interviewer her trip is intended to give voice to the often unheard and unshared struggles of the seriously ill, the disadvantaged and the victims of violence.
Beneath the shade of a tree-lined portion of the New Mexico State University campus Lea detailed "The 50 Causes Ride," which has her cycling 50 miles per day, for 50 days and highlighting 50 causes.
"It all started because I didn't know what to do for my 50th birthday," she explained. "I thought, OK I can ride a bike, but how could I make that special.
"The planing and buildup started two and a half years ago. I began to think about all the people in my life that I know and love with these challenges," Lea recounted. "I had to stop at 50 because the causes are infinite."
Liz Watkins documents each leg of the journey, including the 50 miles ridden and the cause designated for that day.
"We get up somewhere between 4:30 and 6 am. I've got to have organic coffee and she's okay with just instant," Watkins said, humorously highlighting the duo's differing style.
While Lea and Watkins anticipate little local fanfare each day, they relish the realization that they continue to acquire increasing online followers who tag along vicariously.
"At the website, anyone in the world can track Diane. They can see exactly where she is at any given time," Watkins explained. "I'm behind the wheel of the RV, shooting video, tweeting, answering calls, texting and keeping an eye on her riding out in front."
As Lea peddles through the planned route for each day, she is always reminded of the more grueling gauntlet traveled by friends, family and acquaintances.
"A friend of mine has had breast cancer and she went through that entire experience and survived," Lea explained. "I've never been through what she has had to, to endure as she has."
Lea said she receives messages of thanks and support daily from persons representing the various issues and illnesses.
"I don't have any idea what they're going through, I'm just riding 50 miles a day," she said.
The cyclist cites a Las Cruces resident as an example of the often misunderstood and stigmatized issues highlighted among her 50 causes. She said the individual who hosted the duo's local layover has experienced severe depression and suicide attempts.
"I use to think why don't people with depression just decide to be happy, to make themselves be happy," Lea recalled. "Not long after that I found myself riding and I couldn't make my legs work."
The cyclist recounted that moment as a personally profound appreciation for depressive disorders. "I don't know what was happening that day in the cosmos. It was the hardest fifty miles I've done."
Lea and Watkins will coast into the conclusion of their journey when arriving in Florida August 27th.
"After all this I don't know what I'll do, what a let down," Lea said, anticipating the days beyond the 50th. "This has been all consuming, it wakes me every morning and puts me to bed every night.
"I can't image not doing this," Lea added. Still, she said she hopes her journey will present new possibilities to further her efforts. "It can't just end here."

Analysts have viewed the passage of Obamacare (the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act) on March 21 through the lens of partisan, racial, and regional conflict. Democrats voted for the bill. Republicans did not. Northern states voted for the bill. Southern states did not. Black and Hispanic representatives voted for the bill. White representatives split their votes.
Indeed, if one focuses on geography and history, the numbers do paint a stark picture of regional division and recrimination, one that seems to override political interest and logic. The Southern States, which are among the poorest states in the nation, possessing the least robust insurance coverage for their populations, would logically benefit the most from the health care reform legislation. However, Southern House representatives voted most strongly against the legislation.
I would like to suggest, however, that the reality is more nuanced. Let's first examine the votes at the state level. Did these votes conform to or contradict the practical interests of the states with respect to insurance coverage?
One simple way to answer this question is to measure state insurance coverage levels against national averages. In 2008, private insurance covered 69.6 percent of the US population. Presumably, the health care reform legislation would benefit states where private insurance covered a lower percentage of the population. It would be in the interest of their Congressional representatives to vote for the bill. The converse would hold for states with private insurance coverage higher than the national average. It might be in the interest of their representatives to vote against the bill.
Of the 50 states, 31 voted against their interest. In other words, a majority of the representatives in these states voted against the bill even though private health care insurance covered a lower percentage of their state's population than the national average. Or a majority of the representatives in these states voted for the bill even though private health care insurance covered a higher percentage of their state's population than the national average. The remaining 19 states either split their votes evenly or had majorities that voted in a manner "consistent" with their interest as a state.
Let's call states voting for the health care reform bill, in defiance of their objective interests, High Insurance States. Within these states, 97 representatives voted Aye and 39 voted No. Of the 16 states in this category, none are from the South (hence another meaning for "high"). Within these states, 71.3 percent of their residents have private health insurance coverage, against the national average of 69.6 percent.
Let's call states voting against the health care reform bill, in defiance of their objective interests, Low Insurance States. Within these states, 35 representatives voted Aye and 99 voted No. Of the 15 states in this category, 12 are from the South (with a second meaning for "low"). Exceptions are Alaska, Idaho, and Montana, with only 4 of the 134 votes. Within these states, 65.4 percent of their residents have private health insurance coverage, against the national average of 69.6 percent.
Explanation II – Economic Class and Economic Interest Subscribe to the Politics email.How will Trump's administration impact you?
While this state-level data would seem to confirm the presence of powerful regional antagonisms, the reality is more complex at the level of Congressional district voting patterns within states. What the data reveals at the individual district level is that economic class and economic interest affects voting patterns in a manner that cuts consistently across regional boundaries.
Consider the districts with the lowest levels of private insurance coverage. All 15 representatives from Congressional districts with the lowest rates of private insurance coverage, ranging from 30.2 percent to 46.7 percent, voted for the health care reform legislation. By contrast, the 15 Congressional districts with the lowest rates of private insurance coverage that voted No on the legislation were significantly better off – with private insurance coverage rages ranging from 48.6 percent to 59.0 percent.
Likewise, of the 15 Congressional districts with the highest rates of private insurance coverage, ranged from 85.5 percent to 89.7 percent, 11 representatives voted against the legislation and 4 voted for the legislation. Interestingly, none of these 15 districts are in Massachusetts, which, while lowering rates of uninsured to historical lows, offsets these lows with high levels of citizens covered by public insurance. The conclusion is that economic interest does predict voting outcomes on the Health Care Reform bill.
If we return to our three statewide classifications – Low Insurance and High Insurance states voting against their interest and Consistent/Neutral states voting with their interest – class difference and class distinctions also govern internal voting patterns at the Congressional district level.
In Low Insurance States, the representatives who voted No had private insurance coverage rates averaging 66.3 percent. The representatives who voted Aye had districts with private insurance coverage rates averaging only 57.2 percent.
In High Insurance States, the representatives who voted No had private insurance coverage rates averaging 77.9 percent. The representatives who voted Aye had private insurance coverage rates averaging 72.1 percent.
In Consistent/Neutral States, the representatives who voted No had private insurance coverage rates averaging 74.3 percent. The representatives who voted Aye had private insurance coverage rates averaging 67.7 percent.
In every voting category – in states, largely from the South, that opposed the legislation ideologically; in states, largely from the North and the West, that supported the legislation ideologically; and in states, dispersed throughout the nation, that opposed or supported the legislation pragmatically – representatives from districts with lower levels of private insurance coverage consistently supported the legislation while representatives from districts with higher levels of private insurance coverage consistently opposed the legislation.
Can we view the opposition to Health-Care Reform from states that should, objectively, have supported it as a Tempest in a Tea Party? Only to a point. Obviously, the Republican Party voted as a bloc, and the Republican Party is strongest in the Southern and Western states. Memories of Tea Party shenanigans during the August recess may have contributed to this unified front.
Nonetheless, the voting patterns at the Congressional district level, when mapped to insurance coverage rates, clearly indicate that, within both "Low" States and "High" States, economic interest influenced voting outcomes.
The pull of interest suggests that, with the issue of health-care and with other issues such as tax policies that influence the economic well-being of Americans, the Republicans cannot assume they will carry an advantage in economically disadvantaged parts of the nation by waving the bloody shirt of regional division and cultural separation.


Trick or treat! Halloween is right around the corner, and while there are plenty of gory and ghoulish recipes out there for all your festive needs; I'm going the subtle route and tricking taste buds with these inconspicuous looking popcorn balls. You'd never guess from looking at them, but the marshmallow is made with pomegranate molasses, and offers just as much tartness as it does sweetness. Add to that some salted sunflower seeds and popcorn, and you have all the elements of the perfect treat: sweet, salty, tangy, chewy and crunchy.

The race to 5G is intensifying as exemplified by a number of public announcements made by leading mobile operators. However, deeper conversations with service providers yield a very simple but important question. How will we make the investments in 5G upgrades profitable? The bet is that 5G technology will support massively scalable, low-latency-enabled applications that in turn will open up new ecosystems, business models, and creativity across the enterprise and residential markets in every industry.
While industry conversations revolve around these new services, we should not dismiss the fundamental role that the IP network plays in delivering them. The step to make your IP transport network ready for 5G requires some thorough analysis. Don't think of it as simply one more network upgrade—5G brings new demands on your transport network that necessitates new capabilities.
Building a 5G IP transport network with the right attributes will be a strategic asset for service providers as services evolve over the next decade. Let me expand on a few of these critical attributes that leading 5G transport networks need to provide.
To deal with the complexity of transporting multiple services over a converged network, it is essential to simplify the underlay network across network domains. In just a few years, Segment Routing has emerged as the foundational technology to make networks simpler, as it removes protocols (e.g., LDP, RSVP-TE) and becomes more scalable. By 2019, 60% of the top service providers in the world will deploy segment routing in their networks. This frees up the network from maintaining per-flow states while Segment Routing powers a unified xHaul network fabric.
As some legacy RAN protocols (e.g., CPRI) may never go away, the packet-based transport network must also be able to encapsulate and transport them in order to support any fronthaul RAN, midhaul RAN, and backhaul architectures.
With convergence comes the need for flexibility. The transport network must support a wide range of requirements as not every application is the same – some are latency-sensitive, while others are bandwidth-hungry and do not have the same requirements vis-à-vis the network.
Network slicing turns out to be the technology of choice to custom fit 5G networks to specific applications (e.g., allocate a piece of an operator's mobile network for different use cases, subscriber services, and classes of customers).
At the transport level, Segment Routing traffic engineering capabilities help to instantiate these network slices by making multiple optimizations of the same physical network infrastructure along various dimensions possible—one can be optimized for low-latency, a second one for bandwidth, and a third can offer disjoint paths on two distinct planes.
At the service level, Ethernet VPN, capable of delivering Layer 2 as well as Layer 3 VPN services, helps to enable network slices and offers a unique control plane extending from Access through Edge to WAN, bringing further simplification.
Another important driver for flexibility is the ability to implement network delivered services in distributed locations that are closer to the end user. The goal here is to improve service experience while reducing the load on the transport infrastructure and minimizing the blast radius of any possible failures. Network-oriented edge sites—where virtualized network service functions, content infrastructure, and user applications are deployed using commercial off-the-shelf equipment—are expected to proliferate. This creates a strong dependency between the transport infrastructure and these distributed edge sites, and it is important that the control and data planes get closely coordinated to allow end-to-end services to be built in a seamless fashion.
Timing and synchronization are of the essence in 5G mobile architectures. If not properly handled, mobile network efficiency and reliability can be impacted greatly, leading to unhappy customers that suffer from a really poor user experience.
A successful strategy combines located time sources, such as GPS, and a well-designed network to carry frequency and time through a combination of Synchronous Ethernet and Precision Time Protocol (PTPv2 or IEEE 1588).
With increasing radio density and expanding in-building coverage, it is becoming more and more difficult, and expensive, to deploy GPS receivers, especially in more challenging locations. Therefore, the ability to deliver time over the transport network will be an essential component of 5G xHaul.
With increase in network size, the span across multiple network domains, and the high volume of xHaul network configuration changes put automation front and center to a successful 5G implementation.
At the device level, the ability to program using YANG data models—model-driven configuration—with highly performant communication protocols (NETCONF, gRPC, …) has been widely embraced by the industry and is starting to spill over into organizations such as xRAN. A similar model-driven paradigm is being used to extract operational data at very high-frequency—model-driven telemetry—to get real-time visibility of the xHaul infrastructure.
At the network level, it is important to have the capability to orchestrate, manage, and automate the network and its services. Cisco provides comprehensive lifecycle automation to let you operate multiple components/resources—IP transport, network edge sites with virtualized functions, and mobile core—all components of a 5G network slice.
Cisco Network Services Orchestrator provides orchestration and lifecycle management of hybrid networks, while Cisco Crosswork and its associated applications enable automation of the operations life-cycle.
With an unprecedented surge in the number of devices getting connected to the network, the attack surface is getting bigger. The network must be secure, and security begins from being able to trust each system which requires continuous innovation and verification.
With largely expanded 5G networks, most aggregation devices will be placed in untrusted or partially trusted environments, it becomes imperative to quickly detect potential breaches and compromises within the network infrastructure.
The foundation of a trusted network is trusted devices, and all trust must begin in hardware. With hardware-rooted secure boot infrastructure, Cisco platforms provide strong protection against firmware and operating system compromises. This, coupled with advanced runtime OS, control-plane, data-plane, and user-plane protection, allows Cisco platforms unique capabilities to establish and maintain trust in exposed environments.
RAN disaggregation enables improved resource efficiency—matching an allocated resource to actual (time-varying/diurnal) demand, hierarchical mobility, improved scalability, new use cases, flexible workload placement, new consumption models, and multi-tenancy— facilitating deployment of shared systems.
Open, multi-vendor interoperable, bandwidth efficient front-haul interfaces address key operator requirements: à la carte RAN procurement, flexible architecture, agile service delivery, and lower TCO. By and large, making RAN and front-haul network transport investment decision separate prevents proprietary RAN lock in.
All these capabilities are critical to make your transport network ready to support and deliver the upcoming wave of 5G services.
Cisco is ready today and committed to providing an xHaul network that is agnostic to the radio provider, while enabling CapEx/OpEx savings as well as new revenue streams via the tenets of convergence, service flexibility, trust, automation, and open standards-based networking. More than 25 tier-1 service providers around the globe have deployed Cisco IP networking capabilities in their mobile xHaul network with many new wins in the last 12 months.
Great summary on the building blocks of 5G networks !

Q: LAMP server with virtual host names I'm using Xubuntu (Linux version 3.2.0-30-generic (buildd@aatxe), gcc version 4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5)).
I've installed Apache2, php5 and mysql.
On Windows, I used WAMP, and I edited Apache's httpd.conf and the windows host file, in order be able to go to http://cmslocalhost/ and see my local cms, that was in a folder of the WAMP server.
I want to do the same thing with my LAMP server. So I want to go to http://cmslocalhost/ and see the website files from /var/www/cms/ being loaded (index.php, ...).
How can I achieve this?

A: In order to redirect http://cmslocalhost/ to localhost you need to edit /etc/hosts file. Syntax is the same as you used in windows host file. You will need something like

127.0.1.1            cmslocalhost

For Apache you need to do the same configuration as you did on Windows.
Site configuration (VirtualHost description) of your server resides under directory /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/. If you are using a new virtual host to direct the requests, you can edit the default site configuration and add a new virtual host.
If you are using rewrite rules, you can put them into the virtual host description in default site configuration file, or if you need to put them outside any virtual host, you can use /etc/apache2/httpd.conf for inserting your own configuration directives.

The plan is to avoid spending more than 28 percent of the gross income on costs that pertain to housing and no more than 36 percent on all expenses and debts. West Jordan has a median income of about $79,324 for people who own homes. Based on that number, a maximum of $1,851 should be spent on expenses related to housing. Renters have a slightly different median income, which is $46,823. Based on this average, renters should spend no more than $1,092 on all rental costs if they want to maintain a non-impoverished standard of living.

Q: Downloading Files to Program Files triggering some Anti-Virus's causing failures - Can I do anything about it? using(WebClient wc = new WebClient()) {
    wc.DownloadFile(url, Path.Combine("c:/Program Files", "App1"));
}

for 100's of Application Dependencies at up to 8 simultaneous downloads at a time seems to be triggering Anti-Virus's in many different ways preventing it from downloading successfully.

Many of my users reported getting general WebClient exceptions (Generic "An exception occured during a WebClient request") as well as a Time-out exception (that isn't caused by a connection failure).
A lot of Anti-Virus's have "Web Protection" which I believe is causing these issues.
It's essentially a custom installer code-base that I created so I can manage how I download and check for updates how I like.
Windows Defender and Malware Bytes are shown to cause it.
As you can see, simply opening it triggered it and prevented the app from running at all.
https://i.imgur.com/D7UvABQ.png
(MachineLearning/Anomalous.95%)

My general code process and flow is to read an argument and if it has /update it will do essentially same as installing just with some small changes. If it has /uninstall it will uninstall and without it at all, it will just install.
The app proceeds to check if the app it installs isnt open, it downloads a manifest file containing information on dependencies the app needs and checks them, if needed they are downloaded and ran.
It gets the main manifest which contains all files of the actual app, it proceeds to download them to the Program Files folder.
It copies the Installer exe to the Program Files directory as its also used for uninstalling with /uninstall
It then finally downloads the final file (.ico image for the shortcuts e.t.c)
Lastly it adds to the /Uninstall registry key to add to the Control Panel/Settings Apps & Programs as well as store a shortcut in start menu.
It then uses Process.Start to run the main .exe file it downloaded into Program Files earlier.
(If you need specific code please tell me)

Im hoping to reduce the amount of false detections its getting if possible or if theres any better routine to do here.
I'm trying to have it so I have a .exe that checks what needs to be installed/or updated without me having to update the installer exe but instead the 2 manifest (json) files.

Edit, after essentially stepping into my code by commenting out the entire thing and uncommenting small bit by bit, I realized Costura.Fody (Used to bind Newtonsoft.JSON.dll into my EXE) was causing it. Is there a reason why this occurs?

Edit 2, after removing Fody/Costura and manually handled the missing dependency with AppDomain.CurrentDomain.AssemblyResolve it barely got detected for anything at all, so thats good.

The Magician's Elephant (Paperback)
By Kate DiCamillo, Yoko Tanaka (Illustrator)
Hardcover (September 8th, 2009): $17.99
In The Magician's Elephant, Kate DiCamillo has created a modern day fairytale, complete with orphans, a magician, and a very lost elephant. Will Peter find his sister Adele? Will the magician be granted forgiveness? Will the poor elephant find its way home? DiCamillo deftly weaves together her story about lost souls in a redemptive message about the importance of hope.
— Anne, Atlanta
A classic tale by Newbery Medalist Kate DiCamillo, America's beloved storyteller
When a fortuneteller's tent appears in the market square of the city of Baltese, orphan Peter Augustus Duchene knows the questions that he needs to ask: Does his sister still live? And if so, how can he find her? The fortuneteller's mysterious answer (an elephant! An elephant will lead him there!) sets off a chain of events so remarkable, so impossible, that you will hardly dare to believe it's true. With atmospheric illustrations by fine artist Yoko Tanaka, here is a dreamlike and captivating tale that could only be narrated by Newbery Medalist Kate DiCamillo. In this timeless fable, she evokes the largest of themes — hope and belonging, desire and compassion — with the lightness of a magician's touch.
With dreamlike illustrations and a cover by Yoko Tanaka.
Kate DiCamillo has a gift, inequitably distributed among writers of all kinds, of eliminating the obvious and still egging on the reader. She writes beautifully but thinks simply. The purity of her prose – the reader goes from paragraph to paragraph delighting in the wonderful simple sentences – only adds to the winsome purity of her vision.
DiCamillo's carefully crafted prose creates an evocative aura of timelessness for a story that is, in fact, timeless. Tanaka's acrylic artwork is meticulous in detail and aptly matches the tone of the narrative.
—School Library Journal (starred review)
Reading like a fable told long ago, with rich language that begs to be read aloud, this is a magical story about hope and love, loss and home, and of questioning the world versus accepting it as it is.
—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
From the unexpectedly miraculous feats of a two-bit illusionist to the transformative powers of love, forgiveness, and a good mutton stew, there is much magic afoot in this fable-like tale… The profound and deeply affecting emotions at work in the story are buoyed up by the tale's succinct, lyrical text, gentle touches of humor, and uplifting message of redemption, hope, and the interminable power of asking 'what if?
Thoughtful readers will feel a quiet satisfaction with this almost dainty tale of impossible happenings.
DiCamillo's allegorical novel seems to pack more mass per square inch than average. The plot is fantastical, surreal…And the prose is remarkable, reflecting influences from Kafka to the theater of the absurd to Laurel-and-Hardy humor.
The mannered prose and Tanaka's delicate, darkly hued paintings give the story a somber and old-fashioned feel. The absurdist elements—street vendors peddle chunks of the now-infamous opera house ceiling with the cry "Possess the plaster of disaster!"—leaven the overall seriousness, and there is a happy if predictable ending for the eccentric cast of anguished characters, each finding something to make them whole.
Kate DiCamillo tells a tale of 'hope, redemption, faith, love, and believing in the impossible' with her usual quiet elegant prose.
Tanaka's shadowy, evocative acrylic paintings echo the dreamy nature of the storytelling and add a surprising amount of solidity (and a particularly nice elephant).
—Bulletin of the Center of Children's Books
With its rhythmic sentences and fairy-tale tone, this novel yields solitary pleasures but begs to be read aloud. Hearing it in a shared space can connect us, one to one, regardless of age, much like the book's closing image: a small stone carving, hands linked, of the elephant's friends.
—Washington Post Book World
Though DiCamillo's first success was with realistic fiction, she has since explored fantasy, here looking at how individuals and society take an impossible event into their narrative of the way the world is. Is it broken or fixable by those who embrace the unusual?
DiCamillo's elegant, evocative prose underpins the otherworldliness of Baltese, a place where a long-accepted truth can be shattered as easily as an elephant crashes through the opera-house ceiling.
Readers willing to venture a little deeper into the darkness will be reassured and rewarded by the singular sense of hope that nearly glows from DiCamillo's prose, and from the incandescent illustrations created by Yoko Tanaka.
—Minneapolis Star Tribune
The power of DiCamillo's writing enables the hope and determination of the characters to break through the gloom that penetrates the story...DiCamillo has again captured the loneliness and unwavering optimism that can only be found in children.
Using short yet powerful sentences and cinematic descriptions, DiCamillo creates another emotion-swelling gem in what is becoming an impressive crown of work.
Lyrical language and many interesting characters make this a wonderful read aloud book or one to be savored alone.
Bringing all these characters together for a happy ending requires its own special magic, which is enhanced by DiCamillo's finely rendered Old World writing style — and the gorgeously muted pencil illustrations of Los Angeles artist Yoko Tanaka.

Q3:Do you use this hip prosthesis exclusively?
"I routinely use the CPT femoral component and the Triology acetabular component managed by Zimmer Orthopaedics. Typically, I will use a polyethylene liner made of cross linked polyethylene. The femoral component is cemented in site in place but the acetabular component is press fitted in place and the bone grows on the outer surface."
"I use this because it is now a proven safe implant with an excellent track record of success."
"I have used this implant for almost 20 years."
"In choosing an implant, there are a number of factors to look for. One is that there are no risks involved. One of the risks of using an uncemented femoral component is that the femur can crack or break. It is also not suitable for all ages whereas the cemented component can be used at any age."
"The second consideration is the articulation of the bearing. This is essentially a plastic or polyethylene bearing, which has a very low failure rate especially with new cross link polyethylene."
"When it does fail, the failure is slow and it is rare that the femoral component will need revision. It is usually just a matter of just revising the acetabular component."
"The UK government has rated implants with a number and a letter. The number refers to the number of years the implant has been in large scale use and the letter refers to the fact of whether there is any documented evidence to support its efficacy."
"The CPT is rated as a 10A which is the best rating an implant can have and the Triology cup should this year achieve the same status. Unlike other articulations, particularly metal on metal, there is no risk of local damage to other tissues when this fails. I have used other implants and sometimes use a non-cemented femoral component but frankly I have come around to the view that this implant is safe, durable and has no local risks to the patient. Occasionally, one can use ceramic on ceramic bearings, but the evidence suggests that the new cross link polyethylene bearing behaves like ceramic and there is little to be gained by using ceramic on ceramic bearing in most cases. There is a very small risk of fracture with ceramic bearings (.1%) and some of these implants make a squeaking noise that the patient can hear."
"I have tried various surgical approaches including two incision minimal invasive surgery. I have returned to a single, small lateral incision, which gives excellent exposure and is safe to use with minimal complications."
"Like many surgeons, I have often wondered which implant I would choose if I had to have a hip replacement. I have often taken the view that I would choose the surgeon first and the implant second. However, I think I am now of the view that I would choose a surgeon I trust who uses this particular implant because I know its success and complication rates are low."
"I think it is very difficult for a patient in deciding who should replace their hip and which implant they should use. I am very happy with patients who have come in and reviewed this and looked up articles on the Internet. However, very few people have a clear understanding of the mechanics involved and they do not always understand why one material is better than another. I would counsel people to say they are not to have the newest experimental joint on the market. Let someone else be the guinea pig. I think the metal on metal hip situation has clearly demonstrated it is best not to be the first patient having the new operation and that longer follow up is of value."

Метте Бок (; нар. 26 липня 1957, Гладсаксе) — данська політична діячка, журналістка, письменниця, член партії Ліберальний альянс, міністр зі справ культури та церкви Данії з 2016 року.

Біографія
Метте Бок народилася у Гладсаксі у сім'ї Оле Самуельсена і Анни Холм, одружена з Гансом Джорном Боком. Її брат — Андрес Самуельсен.

Бок закінчила філософський факультет в Оденському університеті та факультет політології в Орхуському університеті. З 1984 по 2002 роки працювала доценткою Орхуської школи бізнесу та соціальних наук.

Бок приєдналася до Соціалістичної народної партії,  від якої безрезультатно висувалася на парламентські вибори 1994 року. Пізніше Бок вступила до партії Радикальна Венстре, від якої висувалася на вибори 2001 року, знову безрезультатно. У 2002 році вона стала головною редакторкою газети «JydskeVestkysten» та об'єднання «Південна данська медіа». Коли її брат Андерс Самуельсен покинув Радикальну Венстре, щоб у 2007 році заснувати нову партію (пізніше перейменовану в Ліберальний альянс), Бок також приєдналася до цієї партії. З 2008 по 2009 роки вона була програмною директоркою Данського радіо.

Обрана у парламент Данії у 2011 році.

28 листопада 2016 році Метте Бок отримала посаду міністра з питань культури та церкви.

I reached out Irene – a cousin of a 1st cousin by marriage, her paternal 1st cousin; from my Life sustaining tribe – and also she is also a cousin from my original tribe. There is definite genetic & paper trails to her maternal grandmother.
I gave Irene the outline of my adoption; how we are connected through both my tribes and a little of the travels on this path.
I received a very positive uplifting response from Irene and value it more than I can actually convey at this time. No matter our connection; she considers me a cousin!
My world has always been about less than the predicted 6 degrees of separation – and so that trend continues.
