I am currently in Cairo. Over the years, I have come to love this country and it's people with all of it's complexities. And the experiences of tonight brings home all the good and the bad.
When I heard the news that Copts were protesting by the television studio near Tahrir square, I thought about how much things have changed here. Copts protesting was unheard till very recently. The church leaders have always refused it, mostly out of fear and Copts never thought their exclusion will end anyway.
As I walked towards the area, it became clear that the protests have turned violent. Smoke was everywhere, and people were running and shouting. Then came the military in their riot gears, firing rounds and tear gas. Soon, I had my own share of the gas and joined running crowds.
Muslims were marching with Christians, defending rights and protection for all Egyptians. A Muslim told me that he is here to defend Christians. Then picked up empty shells on the road and showed them to me.
Protesters grouped by Tahrir square, and the military police sent more troops. More rounds.. More tear gas.. Then, a water cannon truck got stopped by crowds and torn down.
A young girl ran to me and asked me if I was a foreigner, I said I am. In perfect English, she asked me to run and go to any hotel I can enter. She said its not safe. And when I asked "what about you?", she said "this is my country. I will be here." Her genuine concern for me but disregard for her own life moved me deeply.
Eventually, I walked away from the area as my eyes burnt and I kept coughing.
Tonight, I saw first hand what I have been writing about and researching in Egypt for years now. Coptic youth are even coming against the Church's demands for calm and are now demanding a life equal with their Muslim compatriots. Since the impeachment of Mubarak, their situation only got worse. You can watch a TV debate I partook on the topic here!
But tonight, I was also reminded that the deep human longing for freedom and dignity are universal and inherent to all of us, whether Muslims or Christians or atheists. When it is denied, people will eventually raise their voices.
Now, the Egyptian media is playing a dangerous game and some army officials are asking Egyptians to defend their army. The reports make it look like only soldiers got killed and wounded, so as to signal the blame on protesters for escalation of the problem. It just goes to show, the Revolution is not done yet, but it is in the making.

The peoples who inhabited Europe during the two millennia before the Roman conquests had established urban centers, large-scale production of goods such as pottery and iron tools, a money economy, and elaborate rituals and ceremonies. Yet as Peter Wells argues here, the visual world of these late prehistoric communities was profoundly different from those of ancient Rome's literate civilization and today's industrialized societies. Drawing on startling new research in neuroscience and cognitive psychology, Wells reconstructs how the peoples of pre-Roman Europe saw the world and their place in it. He sheds new light on how they communicated their thoughts, feelings, and visual perceptions through the everyday tools they shaped, the pottery and metal ornaments they decorated, and the arrangements of objects they made in their ritual places--and how these forms and patterns in turn shaped their experience. How Ancient Europeans Saw the World offers a completely new approach to the study of Bronze Age and Iron Age Europe, and represents a major challenge to existing views about prehistoric cultures. The book demonstrates why we cannot interpret the structures that Europe's pre-Roman inhabitants built in the landscape, the ways they arranged their settlements and burial sites, or the complex patterning of their art on the basis of what these things look like to us. Rather, we must view these objects and visual patterns as they were meant to be seen by the ancient peoples who fashioned them. Read Less

We're thrilled to announce a new partnership with Project Raygun, USAopoly's brand new initiative focused on combining iconic properties with visionary art and design.
"The synergy between Mondo and Project Raygun was immediate, both driven by zeal and a deep-rooted appreciation of timeless and relevant pop culture," explains VP of Project Raygun, Mike Gonzales.
"When Project Raygun started talking about tapping into fan's passion and nostalgia for iconic properties and bringing them to life, it was clear that Mondo was the perfect fit to help us deliver the ultimate experience to the gaming and collector community," continued John Davis, USAopoly and Project Raygun's President and CEO.
Our first collaboration will center around John Carpenter's 1982 sci-fi horror thriller, The Thing. In the new signature board game, titled INFECTION AT OUTPOST 31, the tension and mystery of The Thing is recreated as players race to discover who among them are infected in the hidden identity game play engine. We recruited one of our favorite artists and package designers, Justin Erickson of Phantom City Creative, to handle art duties.
"When we set out to create the first licensed Mondo board game the biggest question was; what film property would we go after? So many of the films we celebrate at Mondo would be an absolute blast in game form," explained Jay Shaw, Mondo Brand Director. "As soon as John Carpenter's suspense masterpiece, The Thing was mentioned it very quickly became our top choice," Shaw noted.
"The next step was to figure out how to actually make a game. We all love playing them, but none of us had designed one before. Game mechanics are an incredibly complicated art form and we didn't want to enter this space unless we were going to get it right. Luckily our dear friends at Project Raygun were completely up to the challenge. They've built an incredibly challenging fast paced game of paranoia that transports players directly into the film," Shaw continued.
USAopoly, Inc. and Project Raygun will be at Toy Fair in New York City, February 18-21. The division's inaugural product line is scheduled for release starting Fall 2017.

For allegedly breaching an agreement to give them pre-paid meters, residents of Jakande Estate and Oke-Afa in Ejigbo, Lagos, have asked the Ikeja Electric (IE) Plc to stop bringing them bills.
Under the pact, the residents said IE was to have metered them within six months, which lapsed on November 24.
The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), they said, gave the IE the ultimatum to meter over 3,000 residents.
During a protest on Sunday, the residents, under the aegis of Estate Youth Parliament (EYP), carried placards with inscriptions such as: "No more estimated billing", "We are overdue for prepaid meter", "Bring us prepaid meters now", "We are sick and tired of estimated billing methodology". They said they could be forced to sue IE if their grievances were not addressed.
Addressing reporters, EYP leader Yusuf Adeyemi said NERC on May 24 ordered it to meter every customer in the estate within six months.
Instead of heeding the order, the firm, he said, wrote the community that it could not meter the community until the fourth quarter of 2019.
In its letter, the firm blamed inadequate power supply to the community on limited allocation from Transmission Company of Nigeria.
It claimed that its unmetered customers were billed based on supply availability in line with NERC's approved estimated billing system.
The letter reads: "In response to your complaint, permit us to state that NERC's approved system ensures that all accounts on the same starting and distribution transformer metered and unmetered are billed as closely as possible to ensure fairness and as much as possible eliminate outrageous billing.
Reacting, the residents claimed that they were over billed under the said system, saying they would no longer pay for electricity until they have meters.
"For more than three years now, we have been cheated by Ikeja Electric. We are not going to take that any longer.
"We are shorting down payment as from today until they bring prepaid IE meters for us," Adeyemi said.
The community's Electricity Committee Chairman, Mr. Tajudeen Gbolahan Lawal, said he had been talking with IE on the matter for more than three years.
He urged the firm to remove its wires from the community if it would not give them meters.

The EU doesn't work in a transparent way
Or is it just a belief?
12 September 2011 , by Stéphane du Boispéan, Translated by Quentin Boulanger
All the versions of this article: [Deutsch] [English] [français]
EP Hemicycle in Strasbourg © European Parliament - Audiovisual Unit
Many of the decisions taken by the European institutions don't reach the ears of the pubic or, when they do so, it is only when they come into force. It is a major difference, no doubt about it, with national politics where debates are reported on a day-to-day basis. But does it mean that the European institutions work behind closed doors? That the decisions taken aren't transparent?
The Commission: a policy based upon consultations
The Commission's legislative proposals are published online. They must necessarily be preceded by a public consultation. Every citizen can be part of those. In fact, federations, associations and companies do it on a more active way than the lambda citizen. But it doesn't mean there is no transparency. Let's take a basic example, the directive on airport charges. In this document the Commission had to sum-up the consultation and opinions of the participants before issuing its proposal. EUR-LEX website publishes every document of this kind.
The European Parliament: always in direct
The European Parliament, like its national counterparts, works in plenary sessions and parliamentary commissions. Every session where the proposals from the Commission are debated is broadcasted on the Internet and can be watched a few days later in the EU's 23 official languages.
Citizens thus have access to everything that is happening in the European Parliament and can find information about the position and ideas of their representatives in Brussels. We can mention the associative website Votewatch that publishes the votes made by every MEP on every text. Years later one can see who voted what.
Progresses to be made… by Member States
This transparency isn't perfect (no institutional functioning is) and as it is the case in our national States, progresses can be made. It is for example inadmissible and incomprehensible that summits behind closed doors between the heads of State and government multiply themselves, as the one that was hold on the 21st of July about the debt crisis. It is necessary to know who thinks what. With this in mind, the national parliaments or the European Parliament should be examples.
The EU doesn't work in a more transparent way than other institutions. Just like the others, it must be constantly reformed to adapt and become more democratic. The first condition to do so still is a greater involvement from the citizens. The frame for this exists even if it can be improved.

Black History Month | The most famous black brides
For our Black History Month series, we look at the impact these black brides have had on history
Black women have long felt under-represented in the bridal industry. It's rare to see a black bride on the cover of a bridal magazine or pictured in images for online retailers. It wasn't until the late 1990s when the online platform Black Bride launched that there was any representation within the industry.
While there's still a way to go, steps are being taken toward creating a more inclusive and diverse approach to the wedding industry. In the meantime, take a moment to appreciate these three famous black brides.

Mildred Loving isn't someone you'll ever see on the cover of Vogue for her haute couture or celebrity status. Her role in the wedding industry is far more important.
Mildred Loving was a key player in history, as she and her husband Richard are responsible for facing the Supreme Court and abolishing marriage segregation laws. The Lovings were married in Washington, D.C., in 1958. At the time, they lived in Virginia, where it was illegal for a black woman and white man to be wed. Despite the union being legal in Washington, upon returning to their home in Virginia, the couple was arrested.
This experience compelled the Lovings to take on the Supreme Court to abolish the Racial Integrity Act of 1924. Mildred reached out to Robert F. Kennedy in 1963 to seek counsel. His direction sent her to the ACLU and, eventually, the Supreme Court, in the now-famous Loving vs. Virginia case. The Lovings won and shaped the future for the abolishment of similar laws in other states.
Bridal make-up that lasts all day
Mildred's dress was simple, and their ceremony was quaint. The love and legacy left behind, however, changed the world.

One issue that many black brides struggle with is that when a business in the wedding industry includes information for black weddings, it's often archaic. The focus is often on traditions like jumping the broom, rather than a more modern approach that celebrates the culture beyond stereotypes.
Serena Williams is not only an icon for women around the world but especially for the black community. Not only has she become a champion in a predominantly white sport, but she's also used her platform to promote incredible causes. Williams was quoted saying that her controversial catsuit made her feel like a "Queen from Wakanda."
Her status as a legendary athlete and black feminist powerhouse made her wedding one of the most anticipated celebrity weddings of the century. Williams wore not one, but three beautiful wedding dresses in a spectacle that was inspired by Beauty and the Beast.
Williams did the whole thing her way. She walked herself down the aisle and celebrated her body, which has long been judged for her muscular build and had just given birth to her daughter two months prior. Serena Williams is the very meaning of legendary.

The general public didn't realize that Meghan Markle was biracial for quite a while. Markle has a white father and a black mother. While there were a lot of aspects of the union between her and Prince Harry that sparked conversation (her divorce, for one, and being American, for another), her black heritage made the biggest impact.
Ranjana Khan Bridal Collection
Meghan Markle might be the first woman of color in the British monarchy. While there is anecdotal evidence that Queen Charlotte, who married King George III in the 1700s may have had African heritage, much of this is speculation after the fact. Unsurprisingly, the history of the British monarchy has been whitewashed, and those who may have had mixed ethnicities weren't apt to share the news.
While Markle's wedding to Prince Harry had much of the pomp and circumstance expected in a royal wedding, she was sure to celebrate her culture. Reverend Michael Bruce Curry delivered a sermon at the wedding. He's a black man and the head of the Episcopal Church. A black gospel choir performed an incredible rendition of Stand By Me, which was unlike anything performed in a royal wedding before.
In the face of controversy, after months of being questioned about her background, Meghan Markle used her wedding as a platform to celebrate her blackness rather than conforming to tradition. Also, she looked amazing doing it.
These are three of the most famous black brides, women who have made an impact on history not only with their marriages, but with their perseverance, dedication, and fighting for their rights and freedoms.

Q: Force cell to "clear" contents in bootstrap thumbnail table I have generated a table that is displayed within a "container" and "thumbnail" div in the twitter bootstrap framework. One of the cells contains buttons that I would like to be displayed on a single line, so there are within a <nobr> tag. The issue is that the "button" images extend beyond the limits of the table. Is there an easy fix?
Demo here: http://www.bootply.com/ElSeqdESoO#
The fix should use dynamic column widths (other columns should wrap there contents, preventing the final column from extending beyond the table boundary).

A: It seems like the last column not having enough width. Providing, you wouldn't mind to have equal width of the columns (any number), add this to css.
table{ table-layout: fixed; }

Best regards

A: I found a solution, not necessarily compatible with all browsers, using CSS flexible boxes. I added the following attribute to the <nobr> tag:
style="display:flex; flex-shrink: 0; min-width:60px;"
This causes the icons to be wrapped in a flexbox which is also prevented from shrinking beyond 60px.

Iago: The Strategies of Evil (Trade Paperback / Paperback)
By Bloom, Harold
From one of the greatest Shakespeare scholars of our time, Harold Bloom presents Othello's Iago, perhaps the Bard's most compelling villain--the fourth in a series of five short books about the great playwright's most significant personalities. Few antagonists in all of literatur...e have displayed the ruthless cunning and deceit of Iago. Denied the promotion he believes he deserves, Iago takes vengeance on Othello and destroys him. One of William Shakespeare's most provocative and culturally relevant plays, Othello is widely studied for its complex and enduring themes of race and racism, love, trust, betrayal, and repentance. It remains widely performed across professional and community theatre alike and has been the source for many film and literary adaptations. Now award-winning writer and beloved professor Harold Bloom investigates Iago's motives and unthinkable actions with razor-sharp insight, agility, and compassion. Why and how does Iago use lies and deception--the fake news of the 15th century--to destroy Othello and several other characters in his path? What can Othello tell us about racism? Bloom is mesmerizing in the classroom, treating Shakespeare's characters like people he has known all his life. He delivers exhilarating intimacy and clarity in these pages, writing about his shifting understanding--over the course of his own lifetime--of this endlessly compelling figure, so that Iago also becomes an extraordinarily moving argument for literature as a path to and a measure of our humanity. There are few readers more astute than Bloom (Publishers Weekly), and his Iago is a provocative study for our time.

Yes. --New York Observer Praise for Shakespeare: The Invention of the Human Not perhaps since Samuel Johnson in the mid-eighteenth century has a critic explained to a general audience as ably as Mr. Bloom does how much Shakespeare matters to our sense of who we are. --The New York Times Brilliant...

A pleasure to read. --Jeanette Winterson, New York Times Book Review In this first of five books about Shakespearean personalities, Bloom brings erudition and boundless enthusiasm. --Kirkus Reviews, starred review Praise for Falstaff: Give me Life Famed literary critic and Yale professor Bloom showcases his favorite Shakespearian character in this poignant work... He has created a larger-than-life portrait of a character who is 'at his best a giant image of human freedom.' --Publishers Weekly Bloom brings considerable expertise and his own unique voice to this book. --Publishers Weekly Bloom draws upon his extensive reading to place the characters and the story in context alongside the histories from which the plot was adapted...those who have read the play or seen it performed will find Bloom's passion to be infectious. Recommended for Shakespeare enthusiasts and readers seeking a deeper understanding of one of his greatest creations. --Library Journal Praise for Cleopatra: I Am Fire and Air A masterfully perceptive reading of this seductive play's endless wonders. --Kirkus Review A measured, thoughtful assessment of a key play in the Shakespeare canon...Bloom brings this dark tale of a king in search of love to life via his incisive close reading of the text. --Kirkus Reviews Praise for Lear: The Great Image of Authority At the outset of this pithy exegesis of King Lear, Bloom describes the play's title characters as one of Shakespeare's 'most challenging personalities'...Bloom guides the reader scene by scene through the play, quoting long but well-chosen swaths of text and interjecting commentary that reveals the nuances of Shakespeare's word choices...he is also deft at bringing out dramatic contrasts between characters...Bloom's short, superb book has a depth of observation acquired from a lifetime of study, and the author knows when to let Shakespeare and his play speak for themselves. --Publishers Weekly Praise for Iago: The Strategies of Evil There are few readers more astute than Bloom...the true value of Bloom's sensitive reading lies in his ability to articulate his emotional response to the play. He leaves readers with a memorable new perspective on Othello. --Publishers Weekly

Iago: The Strategies of Evil


Bhubaneswar: A new six-metre wide foot-over-bridge (FOB) was commissioned across all platforms in Cuttack railway station on Friday.
The project, a part of Cuttack Station Development Plan, was completed within a period of 140 days.
The FOB project was sanctioned under 'Umbrella Works' in 2018-19. It is the third six-metre FOB after Bhubaneswar and Bhadrak, commissioned in the Current Financial Year by the Khurda Road Division.
Another FOB which is being planned at Jajpur-Keonjhar Road station will be commissioned in March, 2019.


This 1960 Jaguar MK 2 is a car we have known for nearly forty years. It's an original San Luis Obispo car still wearing its black plate and original Lucksinger license plate frame which came from the original dealer. The car is believed to have 71,352 original miles on it, drives beautifully, and is honestly one of the nicest-driving MK 2s we've ever seen. The car has never suffered from any accidents and has just a very minor amount of rust in the lower portion of the front fenders, which you can see in the photos. This is an original black-on-black car which is a very rare and attractive color combo. The paint is older and still shows very nicely, but on close inspection, has some cracking in several areas which you can see in the photos. The body on this car is exceptional. The upholstery is all freshly restored by BAS Jaguar Trim, and is done to a very high, show-quality standard. All BAS does is Jaguar, so it's done completely correct and is a very high-end job. The wood has also been fully restored by Madera Concepts, and is perfectly restored. The full interior restoration on this car is gorgeous and not a low-end job by any means. The car drives beautifully and has been updated with rack-and-pinion steering, which is a significant upgrade. The car is all-matching-numbers and came from the factory with four-speed overdrive. The car comes with the original owner's manual and tool kit that is still in place in the spare wheel tray. Jaguar MK 2s as nice as this rarely come available. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you have.

Q: Is it possible to set up a BroadcastReceiver that listens for ANRs? Within the Intent documentation, one can find the constant Intent.ACTION_APP_ERRORwhich is broadcasted when:

The user pressed the "Report" button in the crash/ANR dialog.

Is it possible to set up a BroadcastReceiver that listens for an intent broadcasted right after the System sets up the ANR dialog, so that the user input is not involved? If not, is there an alternative method that could trigger some action after detecting that event?

A: If you are asking whether you can catch the event from the system, the answer as far as I know is no.
If you are asking for a way to detect it, see here.

It started working again. It there a limit max amount of sleeping processes?

A: Q: It there a limit max amount of sleeping processes?
A: There's a limit on the number of connections to the MySQL server, that applies to all connections, not just connections in "Sleep" state.
The limit is specified in the max_connections user variable. (The default value is 151.)
There's also a limit on the number of connections from a single user account, either a non-zero value specified on the user account, otherwise derived from the max_user_connections system variable.
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'max%connections'

Variable_name         Value
--------------------  --------
max_connections       1000
max_user_connections  200

(On the Windows platform, there may be some additional limitations, beyond those imposed by MySQL itself, e.g. if you "churn" connections, you can temporarily exhaust the available ports, until Windows returns ports that are no longer being used.)

This originally appeared in Domain in the SMH and Financial Review. To read comments, click HERE.
In strata more than anywhere else, it seems, there are certain kinds of people who, if given a little authority, will immediately award themselves executive powers to which they are not entitled.
Flat Chat newbie Alexandra lives in a small block of ten units where the chairman of 20 years standing sounds like something of a technophobe, not to mention a control freak.
This required driving on the wrong side of the entrance, within door-scraping distance of the lock. Then Alexandra discovered there had always been remote access available so she and five other owners bought remote devices.
The service company is right. Remote control devices are more secure because you can have key audits at which all the remotes are recoded and any stray devices that may have wandered off with former residents are rendered useless.
The same can't be said of keys which can be copied with ever increasing numbers in circulation, some of which will inevitably end up in the wrong hands.
However, it sounds like Alexandra and the other remote control owners have a majority in the building so they should write collectively to the chairman asking politely that the remote access be restored, and set a deadline for doing so.
If he fails to act, this fuddy-duddy needs to be reminded that the chairman is ruled by the owners, not the other way round. A simple majority vote at an executive committee meeting could replace him as chair (although he would still be on the committee).
If the committee won't do it, they could all be sacked mid-term, but only by a vote of 75 percent of owners at an extraordinary general meeting, which is hard to achieve.
However, this autocrat needs to be brought to heel so Alexandra's best plan may be to organize a palace coup at the next AGM when only 51 percent of the vote will get the tumbrils rolling.
There's more of this on the Flat Chat Forum.

Grand Island Express Chooses Lytx DriveCam™ as Partner in Its Family Approach to Creating Safer Drivers
SAN DIEGO (Dec. 7, 2016) – Grand Island Express, a 140-vehicle for-hire trucking firm soon to enter its 50th year, takes pride in its family approach to business. Every new driver gets a one-on-one meeting with the company's president, Tom Pirnie, son of the company's founder, to establish a personal connection, and thereafter, they remain on a first-name basis. A core value within the Grand Island Express family is safety, and that's why they chose Lytx DriveCam video telematics as its safety partner.
The DriveCam® exception-based video safety program combines video capture of road incidents such as hard braking or sudden swerving, data analysis of those incidents, and personalized coaching insights to improve driving behavior. Today, Lytx® helps protect more than 650,000 commercial and government fleet drivers under its DriveCam program.
The powerful combination of DriveCam video and coaching insights have helped Grand Island keep its CSA scores so low that they're broadcast front and center on the company website. The Grand Island fleet achieves those scores without sacrificing their 98 percent on-time delivery record.
Grand Island Express Safety Director Lucas Mowrey, a former driver himself, says that the DriveCam program has helped them live up to the Grand Island motto that "there is no load so important that we can't take the time to deliver it safely."
"It's hard to get hired here. You have to have a clean record to start with, but nobody's perfect," he said. "I'm not asking for perfection, but I am striving for it. I believe we can be the safest fleet."
One of the first lessons Mowrey and his team learned following the DriveCam deployment was that just about 10 to 20 percent of the drivers needed extra attention to improve safety, and that coaching has to be personalized. Even the small things, he learned, were important, like coaching on following distance to minimize the likelihood of rear-end collisions.
"It's tough to coach over the phone," he said. "The coaching experience completely changes when it's in person; you're able to see who takes it to heart." Mowrey added that he was pleasantly surprised by how positively the coaching with DriveCam video clips has been received.
"We have one driver who wants to go back and review his video clips every night – it's not what I expected," he said. "We have a truly great group of drivers, and all I'm asking is that they understand what they can do differently to improve safety."
Grand Island first tried self-service dash cams in every truck but found them to be unreliable, and when they did work, it could take days to get the video from the SD card. He knew they had to find another solution, and heard about DriveCam from a peer.
Grand Island skipped a trial and went straight to deployment, Mowrey said, because "we believed in the technology and the success rate has been high."
Grand Island's safety record is so good that its fleet was recently named the Nebraska Trucking Association's Safest Fleet Grand Champion, a designation that Mowrey says the DriveCam program helped them earn.
At Lytx® we harness the power of data to change human behavior and help good companies become even better. Our flagship service, Lytx DriveCam™ sets the standard for driver safety in the industries we serve, and our RAIR® Compliance Services helps DOT-regulated fleets comply with safety regulations, complementing the DriveCam® Program. Lytx ActiveVision® service helps fleets detect and address distracted and drowsy driving, both in real time and over time, and the Unisyn™ platform offers video without limits for fleets and field operations of any profile. We protect more than 1,500 commercial and government fleet clients worldwide who drive billions of miles. We enable our clients to realize significant ROI by lowering operating and insurance costs, while achieving greater efficiency and compliance. Most of all, we strive to help save lives – on our roads and in our communities, every day. Lytx is privately held and headquartered in San Diego.

Q: Could I send serialized data in Django to JSON dataframe chart.js? below I send example of candlestick charts.js date structure - (JSON type):
 <script>
    const data1 = luxon.DateTime.fromRFC2822('15 Dec 2021 00:00 GMT');
    const date2 = luxon.DateTime.fromRFC2822('16 Dec 2021 00:00 GMT');
    const data = {
      datasets: [{
        data: [
        {
          x: data1.valueOf(),
          o: 1,
          h: 0.75,
          l: 0.75,
          c: 1.25
        },
        {
          x: date2.valueOf(),
          o: 1.20,
          h: 1.5,
          l: 0.75,
          c: 0.9
        }
        ],
      }]
    };

    // config
    const config = {
      type: 'candlestick',
      data,
      options: {}

    };

    // render init block
    const myChart = new Chart(
      document.getElementById('myChart'),
      config
    );
    </script>

It seems similar to serializers? So I wonder if it is possible to send it in context to make this json like data

And seems...
const data = {{data}}

doesn't work... :)

Q: How can I resolve this data type issue in Elasticsearch There are a couple field types in my Elasticsearch cluster that I'm trying to change by moving the data from the original index to a new empty index using Python. I'm running into this error elasticsearch.exceptions.RequestError: RequestError(400, 'illegal_argument_exception', 'mapper [stat_type] cannot be changed from type [keyword] to [text]'). I don't understand how I get this error.
In my python dict, stat_type is a string and I've already set the new mapping for the new index like below. The new index is empty so I don't understand how it even registers as text. Thanks.
"stat_type" : {"type" : "keyword"}

Kundabuffer organ

Originally a useful organ that served the function of helping ancient humanity become focused on material, physical existence, it became corrupted by desire and the sexual fall, thus resulting in the emergence of the ego and the fortification of the sexual energy in a negative polarity, and has since been symbolized by the tail of the devils, the tail of Satan.
"In ancient times (due to a certain mistake performed by some sacred individuals), humanity developed the negative side of the sexual center, its tenebrous Luciferic aspect. When the electronic sexual fire is directed downwards into the atomic infernos of the human being, it becomes the abominable Kundabuffer organ, the tail of Satan. Fortunately, after its development, the Luciferic organ vanished from humanity; nevertheless, its fatal consequences still remain. It is urgent to know that the disastrous consequences of the abominable Kundabuffer organ remained deposited within the five cylinders of the human machine. It is indispensable to know that the evil consequences of the abominable Kundabuffer organ constitute the lunar ego, the pluralized "I." –Samael Aun Weor
"It is necessary to know that the Kundabuffer Organ is the negative development of the fire. This is the descending serpent, which precipitates itself from the coccyx downwards, towards the atomic infernos of the human being. The Kundabuffer Organ is the horrifying tail of Satan, which is shown in the "body of desires" of the Intellectual Animal, who in the present times is falsely called man." - Samael Aun Weor, The Elimination of Satan's Tail
"The diabolic type whose seduction is here, there and everywhere under the pretext of working in the Ninth Sphere, who abandons his wife because he thinks she will not be useful to him for the work in the Fiery Forge of Vulcan, instead of awakening Kundalini , will awaken the abominable Kundabuffer organ. A certain Initiate, whose name will not be mentioned in this Treatise, commits the error of attributing to the Kundalini all the sinister qualities of the Kundabuffer organ... When the Fire is cast downwards from the chakra of the coccyx, the tail of Satan appears; the abominable Kundabuffer organ. The hypnotic power of the organ of Witches' Sabbath holds the human multitude asleep and depraved. Those who commit the crime of practicing Black Tantra (Sexual Magic with Seminal Ejaculation) clearly awaken and develop the organ of all fatalities. Those who betray their Guru or Master, even if practicing White Tantra (without seminal ejaculation), will obviously activate the organ of all evils. Such sinister power opens the seven doorways of the lower abdomen (the seven infernal chakras) and converts us into terribly perverse demons." - Samael Aun Weor, The Mystery of the Golden Blossom

Have We Hit An Inflection Point? - Epoch Investment Partners, Inc.
Have We Hit An Inflection Point?
We expect only modest global GDP growth during 2016 and 2017, and associated with that, lower-for-longer policy rates. GDP forecasts continue to be revised down and PMIs, which are the best economic indicators for signaling inflections in the cycle, continue to send mixed signals.
Even in the U.S., where the economic recovery appears to be on firmer ground (witness strong employment and consumption growth), underlying fragilities remain, reflecting high debt levels, an unbalanced economy and stresses in the energy sector.
Further, the outlook for earnings remains challenging, partially due to rising unit labor costs. Even on an ex-energy basis, we expect minimal earnings growth this year.
Additionally, equity markets appear to already be fully valued and we see little room for multiple expansion from here.
Our cautious perspective is partly due to our view that the global economic outlook is clouded by several secular headwinds, including: deleveraging, challenging demographics, weak productivity growth and China's rebalancing.
Bottom-line: Although we are not bearish on the outlook for global equity markets, and expect they will outperform bonds, we see only moderate upside and do not believe we have hit a significant inflection point. This suggests equity portfolios should be focused on quality companies with a proven track-record of generating positive cash flow and allocating capital efficiently.
The global financial crisis is now seven years behind us, but growth has yet to exhibit the sharp rebound typically experienced post-recession. To illustrate, the International Monetary Fund provides growth projections for the global economy, with these estimates published every April (and revised in October). During the last five years these estimates have been revised down in each and every year, and we doubt 2016 will prove an exception (Figure 1). Further, the Bloomberg consensus sees only 2.7% growth for the G20 this year (tied for the worst year since 2009), with only modest improvements expected in 2017 and 2018 (3.1% and 3.2%, respectively).
The global growth outlook has continuously been revised down.
What are Leading Economic Indicators Telling Us?
Another approach to tracking growth involves Purchasing Manager Indexes, which are the best economic indicators for signaling inflections in the cycle. However, they continue to send mixed signals (Figure 2). The PMI for China has improved, but it is barely in expansion territory (defined as a reading above 50), while that for the U.S. remains well below its average level over the last three years. Overall, the PMIs offer little reason to turn bullish at this point.
Global PMIs do not suggest we have hit an inflection point.
While we are not bearish on the global growth outlook, we see only a few pockets of robust activity (e.g., India and maybe the U.S.). Although many commentators have exaggerated the likelihood of a hard landing in China, the country remains in the early innings of a long and difficult rebalancing. Growth is highly likely to continue to decelerate, which is actually a good thing, both for China and for the global economy. However, the Middle Kingdom drove 43% of global growth since 2009, so this deceleration will be felt globally.
The next biggest economy is Europe, where upside risks to growth remain limited by overly tight fiscal policy and rather ineffectual monetary policy. The region remains buffeted by the fight between centrifugal and centripetal forces including: the autocratic east versus the liberal democratic west; the largely unreformed south versus the more competitive north; a host of Eurosceptic political leaders (such as Marine Le Pen); regional issues (e.g., Catalonia, socialists in Portugal and Spain, Italian banks); and, of course, the ongoing refugee crisis.
The next two big economies are Japan and the U.K. The former is in a very difficult situation and Prime Minister Abe may soon be forced to implement an even more unconventional policy mix. The U.K. economy is relatively robust, but the sole focus over the next two months will be the June Brexit vote (which has a 35% chance of succeeding, an outcome that would be quite negative for economies on both sides of the channel). For brevity's sake we will spare readers a discussion of the difficult outlook for Brazil and Russia, which are expected to "grow" by -3.6% and -1.3%, respectively, during 2016.
Some investors argue that the economic outlook must be improving, otherwise the Federal Reserve would not have hiked interest rates in December and projected a further two moves in 2016. However, we believe the Fed is unlikely to hike more than once this year for reasons shown in Figures 3 and 4.
It is almost unprecedented for equity returns to be negative when the Fed begins hiking (even with the recent rally, global equities are still down 5% yoy).
December marked the first time in over 50 years that the Fed commenced a hiking cycle while bond yields were trending downward.
Note that it is extremely unusual for the Fed to hike when equity market returns are negative, bond yields are declining, high yield spreads are rising and commodity prices are under pressure. During the past 50 years, when the Fed commenced hiking it was almost always the case that equity markets were robust, credit spreads were narrowing and 10-year yields were rising. None of those conditions hold today, which suggests the risk of a policy error, as the Fed may be underestimating the fragility of the global macro environment.
One consequence of the difficult macro backdrop is that the outlook for corporate profits is not terribly supportive (Figure 5), partially due to rising unit labor costs. Note that unit labor costs are up 3.3% (on a SAAR basis), well above the 15-year mean of 1.0%. This in turn reflects tepid productivity growth, currently running at 0.5% yoy, leagues below its 15-year average of 1.9%.
Corporate profits (as a percent of GDP) have declined sharply, even excluding the oil sector, while labor compensation (also percent of GDP) is beginning to climb.
As a result, S&P 500 earnings and revenue growth in Q1 of 2016 have been weak (Figure 6). This reflects multiple headwinds, including the strong U.S. dollar, weak growth outside the U.S. and a floundering energy sector. For 2016, investors only expect earnings growth of 2.7% (ex-energy), which strikes us as reasonable. However, on its own it won't provide much of a tailwind to equity markets.
Tepid earnings and revenues expectations for S&P 500 companies (ex-energy) for Q1 2016. Companies with a majority of their sales abroad are particularly hard hit (due to strong USD and anemic global growth).
Additionally, exceptional items have become increasingly important, leading to a widening gap between GAAP and pro forma earnings (Figure 7). In fact, the overall gap this year for the S&P 500 was the largest observed in the last two decades, with the sole exception of 2008. The provides yet another reason not to be terribly optimistic regarding the earnings outlook.
There is a widening gap between GAAP and pro forma earnings (largely due to the energy sector).
Additionally, equity markets have already re-rated and we see little room for multiple expansion from here. This point is illustrated by Figure 8 which shows the S&P 500's 12-month forward P/E multiple. We won't belabor this point, as it seems to be quite well known by now.
Markets have re-rerated as a result of QE, leaving little further room for multiple expansion.
Our cautious perspective is partly due to our view that the global economic outlook is clouded by several secular headwinds, including: deleveraging, challenging demographics, weak productivity growth and China's rebalancing. For example, Robert Gordon (Northwestern University and author of the acclaimed "Rise and Fall of American Growth") emphasizes several headwinds, including demographics and government debt, to conclude that America is riding on a slow-moving turtle.
These challenges are also stressed by Larry Summers (Harvard University and former Treasury Secretary), who adds two more into the mix: we are living in a capital-light world (largely due to technological progress); and there remains a surplus of savings (alternatively, a deficiency in demand or a too low propensity to consume). Additionally, Raghuram Rajan (University of Chicago, currently governor of the Reserve Bank of India) emphasizes that emerging markets need to rework their export-led growth models, a process that has only just started.
If Professors Gordon, Summers and Rajan are correct, there are several key implications for markets and investors. Most importantly, inflation will remain low for a very long time (as will bond yields). Further, unconventional policy responses are becoming increasingly conventional (please see our Insight on Negative Interest Rate Policies).
Although we are not bearish on the outlook for global equity markets, we see less upside than in the typical cycle and do not believe we have hit a significant inflection point. This suggests equity portfolios should be focused on quality companies with a proven track-record of generating positive cash flow and allocating capital efficiently.

A highly-organised paedophile ring involving Victorian police and former politicians had been operating in the state since the 1970s, anti-child abuse groups claimed today.
Dr Reina Michaelson of The Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Program (CSAPP) and Bravehearts founder Hetty Johnston today said they had been told by child sex abuse victims that former Victorian elected politicians and police members were involved in child pornography and prostitution.
Dr Michaelson said she was working with child sex abuse victims who said they had witnessed significant police corruption and protection of paedophilia rings.
"I'm working with victims whose experience included police presence, police actually involved in the sexual offences that were committed against them," Dr Michaelson said.

Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal overturned over 12 bans in five years
Successful appeals have been made by paedophiles, rapists and sex offenders
The court decisions have been slammed by victims and child protection groups
More than a dozen paedophiles, rapists and violent sex offenders have won the right to work with children through a series of court challenges.
Successful appeals at the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) have resulted in over 12 working with children bans being overturned in just five years. Those who have won their appeals include a man who was caught by police with a half-naked boy in his car.
A 31-year-old man fondled his partner's teenage daughter after taking her camping, and a another man, 22, raped a 13-year-old girl, ABC News reported.
A different offender raped a woman after a buck's party, while another was caught masturbating in public toilets and train stations in front of women and children.

Australia has an epidemic of paedophiles and as a country we need to face up to it and deal with it. The courts are a key area that the paedophiles are getting support and protection from and I will give multiple recent examples in this article as finding the examples is not hard as there are many of them.
This website is meant to focus on judicial corruption and it is impossible to ignore the links between the judiciary and paedophiles. In recent times we even had Judge Garry Neilson use the sanctity of the court to defend paedophiles which only another paedophile would do. While Judge Garry Neilson was meant to be suspended from hearing sex abuse cases he is still a judge. (Click here to read more)

Make no mistake the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse was only the tip of the Iceberg. Over the next year or so it will be a huge issue as the government deals with the recommendations of the Royal Commission and as more people have become empowered by the Royal Commission to raise issues that have long been hidden or covered up. Social media has also had a huge hand in empowering people to raise complaints.

In 2014, a series of often seemingly intertwining child sex abuse stories have engulfed the UK in what has become the biggest scandal of modern times. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the whole country feels duped, dirtied, and, worse, connected in some way. Culprits and alleged culprits have included celebrities, the social services and police (whose systemic failures resulted in an estimated 1,400 children being sexually exploited in the town of Rotherham between 1997 and 2013), politicians (the evidence of a pedophile ring operating within the corridors of Westminster during the 1980s is now incontrovertible after London´s Metropolitan Police described allegationsfrom an anonymous survivor as "credible and true" this month), and even employees of the Royal Family (British tabloid the Sunday People recently revealed that the House of Windsor was also implicated in abuses centered around accusations from a 16-year-old boy).
The town of Rochdale lies at the center of two of these recent child sex scandals. In 2012, nine Pakistani men were convicted of running a "grooming" operation that targeted young girls there, and it was also home of the late Liberal Member of Parliament (MP) Cyril Smith, a 400-pound giant of a man who reportedly terrorized the local Knowl View Residential School.
Though Smith's penchant for the abuse and rape of young boys had been gossiped about for decades (at least two regional newspaper editors had D notices slapped on them, meaning that no story could be published about Smith's behavior), the politician wasn't publicly accused of child abuse until 2012, when the police admitted that they should have pursued charges against him. Simon Danczuk, the current Labour MP for Rochdale, is responsible for exposing Smith in Parliament, and has since co-written a book detailing his predecessor's alleged misdeeds.

In 2016, a Norwegian journalist and an ethical hacker went looking for the operator of the world's biggest child abuse site. The truth was more twisted than they even imagined.
Oslo-based journalist Håkon Høydal and computer expert Einar Stangvik spent a year on an exposé about Norwegians who visited child pornography web sites. The story, published in 2015, was a blockbuster.
But their next big project was an even more twisted tale — and it led them to stumble upon the operator of the world's largest child abuse site.

PRIME Minister Malcolm Turnbull is under pressure to launch an investigation into elite paedophile rings in Australia, after allegations surfaced of a former prime minister on a police list of suspected paedophiles.
Child sex abuse survivors advocates have backed calls from Liberal Senator Bill Heffernan to expand the royal commission into child sex abuse.
The calls for an urgent inquiry follow the Senator's sensational claim yesterday that he has a police list which names 28 prominent people, including a former PM, as suspected paedophiles.

Dr. Bruce Hensel, a long-term associate of Rep. Adam Schiff, has been arrested in Los Angeles on pedophilia related charges after he asked a 9-year-old girl to send him sexually suggestive pictures, according to prosecutors and law enforcement.
Rep. Adam Schiff and Dr. Hensel have been closely linked for years, with the LA Times describing the doctor as a "special guest" at Schiff's 50th birthday party in 2010. Schiff also handpicked Dr. Hensel to work with him on health care townhalls in California and has been the recipient of big dollar donations from the 71-year-old throughout his political career.
Who is the former Australian Prime Minister and judges who are paedophiles?
Senator Bill Heffernan claimed in Parliament on Tuesday (19/10/15) that he has a police list of 28 prominent people that includes a former Prime Minister and current judges that are suspected of being paedophiles. This is dynamite and an issue that will not go away until it is dealt with in full in an open and public manner.
There is enough detail in Senator Heffernan's allegations to make them very credible. Some of the details are:
The list "formed part of police documents that had been "signed off" by Gary Crooke, QC, the former senior counsel assisting NSW's Wood royal commission into police corruption in the 1990s. Mr Crooke declined to comment when contacted by Fairfax Media on Tuesday."
The list includes a former Australian Prime Minister, judges, members of the legal fraternity and others.
"Every Commonwealth attorney-general since Philip Ruddock had seen the list". This seems to have been confirmed by Philip Ruddock and Former Labor Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus.
Senator Heffernan "accused former royal commissioner Justice James Roland Wood of refusing to investigate lawyers who had allegedly attended a Kings Cross "boy brothel". (Click here to read more)
The name of the club was Costellos and was a known "boy brothel" attended by members of the Sydney legal fraternity. (Click here to read more)
Former Royal Commissioner Wood denied the allegations by Senator Heffernan, but not outright. "Mr Wood could not recall if the alleged list had been raised at the 1995 commission but said: "I reject that we failed to investigate anyone that fell within our terms of reference." That is a very weak denial by Mr Wood and allows him plenty of wriggle room to change his story later down the track if needed.

A common problem with adoption these days is the willingness of our governments to adopt children to make couples, whom in turn are in fact adopting these children to paedophile them out.
There has already been numerous cases where males have adopted children to rape. Unfortunately in our politically correct society,it is deemed discriminative to not allow gay men to adopt children - regardless of the statistics that already one in four girls and one and five boys these days are sexually assaulted before the age of 16.
With constant barriers such as Debra Lee Furness, protective parents are finding it near impossible to not only fight against forced adoption but to keep the children safe from predators.
