The Orioles overcame a rocky debut by starter Bruce Zimmermann, claimed a two-run lead in the fourth, but fell apart late once again. Tampa Bay used small ball in a big fifth inning, and the Rays completed a doubleheader sweep with a 10-6 victory.
DJ Stewart gave the Birds their first and only lead of the game with a two-run, two-out double in the top of the fourth, but Baltimore gave it right back on a Joey Wendle two-run shot. Baltimore failed to score for the rest of the contest, while Tampa hung four on the O's in the fifth inning.
Cole Sulser walked leadoff batter Mike Brosseau to immediately put himself at a disadvantage. Brosseau stole second without a throw, and moved up to third on an infield single and throwing error by Rio Ruiz. Nate Lowe broke a 6-6 tie with a single to center, and Brandon Hyde elected to pull Sulser there.
Hyde called on Dillon Tate to minimize the damage, but Tampa had other plans. In an extremely frustrating series of events, the Rays managed to out-bunt the league-leading Orioles.
Manuel Margot nearly gave himself up with a sacrifice, but a quality bunt led to a rushed throw. Tate's toss to first pulled Mountcastle well off the bag, and suddenly the bases were juiced with nobody out. Kevan Smith followed with a swinging bunt down the third base line, and Tate was forced to field once again. Tate's off-balance throw hit base runner Willy Adames, and everybody reached once again.
Wendle and Randy Arozarena followed with back-to-back sacrifice flies to deep left field that gave the Rays a four-run advantage. Evan Phillips came on to record the final out of the inning, but the damage had been done.
The Orioles competed as the away team in a makeup contest despite the game being played at Camden Yards. Baltimore went down in order in the sixth, and brought the tying run to the on-deck circle before a Ruiz groundout ended the game.
The Orioles and Rays both finished with 10 hits, but Tampa made the most of their opportunities. Zimmermann recorded the first out of the game on his first pitch, but allowed a pair of base runners to reach with a walk and hit by pitch. Zimmermann forced Brosseau to pop out for the second out, but surrendered a three-run homer to Willy Adames. Adames struck out in all four of his at bats in game one, but put enough muscle behind a line drive to give the Rays an early lead.
Hanser Alberto put the O's on the board with a solo shot in the second, and Ryan Mountcastle drove in DJ Stewart with a double that skipped past right fielder Hunter Renfroe in the third.
Chance Sisco led off the fourth with a bloop single, and Ruiz evened the score at four with a no-doubter to right field. Pat Valaika reached on an infield single, and Cedric Mullins punched a ball the other way before Stewart brought both men home with a double off the wall in right.
Zimmermann struggled to fool a talented Rays lineup through three plus innings. He allowed two home runs, and was charged with his fifth earned run of the night when Travis Lakins allowed an inherited runner to score in the fourth. Zimmermann tossed 52 pitches, 32 for strikes, and struck out two.
While Zimmermann's debut fell short of expectations, O's fans must realize we've been a little spoiled lately with rookie performances. Not every pitcher will come up and find success like Keegan Akin and Dean Kremer, and not every hitter will come up and mash like Mountcastle. Playing in the majors is extremely difficult, and facing the first place Rays on short notice would be a challenge for any pitcher.
The true disappointment of the evening stemmed from the bullpen relinquishing the lead in the second half of an abridged game. Sulser's struggles continued, while Tate simply couldn't catch a break. Still, when the offense shows up these days, the Orioles need to take advantage.
The pair of defeats brought Baltimore to 22-29 on the season. Several MLB teams are hovering around 21-22 wins at the moment, so the O's still have time to "improve" their draft position before the end of the season.
Hyde said before the game that Zimmermann would have an opportunity to pitch again this season. He may have struggled today, but I'm guessing any guy with a mustache like that doesn't just give up and call it quits.
For what it's worth, neither will the Orioles. They'll pick things back up tomorrow evening with Alex Cobb on the mound.


turns out, it's close to the second sketch for january!
Yes, he certainly started something with that! Love your pizza colours!
What a great story this tells. The title and the steps are perfect.
Well done.Great title as well.
Love it! It's got this fab grunge feel which goes with the eating thing!
You do convey such wonderful stories with your pages Anna... this is beautiful. I particularly love the numbering of the photos and the journaling.
I love your approach to this topic, Anna. The photos and journaling make a great page - and you've put it together so beautifully, as always.
This is FANTASTIC!!! I love it and what a special activity for the 2 of them to do, together! I love it, Anna.


Make the perfect hair tie to match a tutu.
Hair tie crafts can be wispy, fine, and delicate. The gathered strips of netting in this wearable craft create a feeling of elegance and classical beauty. They add sophistication to a simple braid. For an extra touch, tie another piece of netting to the bottom of the braid.
Note: In Step 2, we used a dark-colored thread so that you could see it. You'll probably want to use a color that won't show up so well.
Gluing large sequins to the netting before you begin will give a whole different feel to the finished piece. The work may be a bit tedious, but the result is very cool.
A quick and neat way to add some color is with heavy thread. Just sew embroidery thread into the netting in long, loose stitches before you begin.
Lay four pieces of netting on top of each other.
Step 1: Neatly lay the four pieces of netting on top of each other. Make sure the edges are aligned.
Sew running stitches through center of netting.
Step 2: Sew a row of running stitches lengthwise through the center of the pieces of netting.
Pull thread ends to gather netting.
Step 3: Pull the thread ends to gather the netting up tightly. Tie thread ends into several knots to secure. Trim excess thread.
Sew hair band to center of netting.
Step 4: Sew the coated hair band securely to the center of the gathered netting.
Step 5: Separate the layers of netting and fluff them up.
Step 1: Fasten a ponytail at the crown of the head with a coated band. Divide it into three equal strands.
Step 2: Hold the left strand in your left hand. Hold the other two strands in your right hand exactly as shown; with your palm facing up, the right strand is between your thumb and forefinger and the center strand is between your forefinger and middle finger.
Step 3: Turn your right hand over so your palm is facing downward. This will make the right strand cross over the left strand so that they switch positions.
Step 4: Now hold the right strand in your right hand. Hold the other two strands in your left hand; with your palm facing up, the left strand is between your thumb and forefinger and the center strand is between your forefinger and middle finger.
Step 5: Turn your left hand over so your palm is facing downward. This will make the left strand cross over the center strand so that they switch positions.
Step 6: Continue this procedure, alternating from right to left until the whole ponytail is braided. Fasten the end with a coated band.


Now, if I could hit consistently that well from more than 20 yards I'd be content.
One of the only three pictures I've justified uploading from a work-conference thing abroad last-year.
The lighting in this picture is kinda neat. That's about all I have to say on this one.
Hey, he's got some friends!
Another bug camping in some flowers. He's even waving! "Hellooooo mister human!". Too bad it turned out a tad on the blurry side.
Just some very well lit moss eking out a living inside an old tree stump. Thought it looked neat. Didn't bother Photoshopping this image short of a resize.
Same moss as this one, but edited up the wazoo.
Took about 30 photo's for this one to turn out even close to reasonable. Damn you auto-focus! Damn you!
Another random sighting in the West Fraser timber park. Some kind of tree-elephant-swamp monster thing. Two-fingered arm in the middle of the frame, and a long trunk of a nose.

Hong Kong teen found guilty in China flag insult case

Hong Kong – A Hong Kong teenager was found guilty on Friday of insulting China's national flag and unlawful assembly as Beijing accelerates its crackdown on dissent and the Hong Kong's pro-democracy movement.
Pro-Beijing authorities have increasingly targeted the most prominent activists in the finance hub, including young leaders such as Joshua Wong and Agnes Chow, who were jailed last week.
Tony Chung, a 19-year-old who led a now-disbanded pro-democracy group, was convicted for throwing the Chinese flag to the ground during scuffles outside Hong Kong's legislature in May 2019.
"The actions of the defendant were out of question, defiling the national flag in an open manner. The defendant walked back and jumped to throw the flag which made more people able to see what he did," Magistrate Peony Wong said.
He was arrested by plainclothes police opposite the U.S. Consulate in late October and had been remanded in custody since.
Speculation has swirled that police moved on Chung because he was hoping to ask for asylum at the U.S. Consulate in Hong Kong.
He did not plead guilty to the flag insult or unlawful assembly, which carry a maximum of three and five years respectively. He will be sentenced on Dec. 29.
"Hong Kongers hang in there," Chung shouted to supporters in court.
Chung is also the first public political figure to be prosecuted under the sweeping new national security law imposed in June by Beijing on Hong Kong to quell anti-government protests.
He faces a charge of secession under the new law, which could land him a life sentence, as well as separate charges of money laundering and conspiring to publish seditious content.
After Friday's verdict, the former leader of pro-independence group Student Localism will be jailed while awaiting trial for the more severe national security charge.
The alleged flag offense took place during scuffles between rival supporters as pro-democracy lawmakers inside tried to prevent the passing of a now-abandoned extradition bill.
In footage shared at his trial, Chung is seen holding a Chinese flag seized from a Beijing supporter, which he then throws over his shoulder.
Prosecutors had accused him of an intentional insult, calling his squat, jump and throw of the flag "performative."
Chung denied the charge, arguing that he did not realize it was a Chinese flag.
Magistrate Wong said she did not agree that he did not know the red cloth was the Chinese flag as it was clearly seen being waved by the pro-Beijing camp during the scuffles.
Criminal cases for insulting the Chinese flag were rarely seen in the former British colony, but as tensions over Beijing's rule have risen, so have such incidents.
In April, an air conditioning apprentice was jailed for 20 days for trampling on a flag and throwing it in the bin at an anti-government protest. In July, a man was handed a five-week sentence for burning a flag last year.
Chung and three other members of Student Localism were first arrested in July on suspicion of inciting secession on social media.
His bail conditions from that arrest prevented him from leaving Hong Kong.
Chung's next court hearing on the national security charge is on Jan. 7.

Charles and Ray Eames are best known for their groundbreaking contributions to architecture, furniture design, industrial design and manufacturing, and the photographic arts.
Charles Eames was born in 1907 in St. Louis, Missouri. He attended school there and developed an interest in engineering and architecture. After attending Washington University in St. Louis on scholarship for two years and being thrown out for his advocacy of Frank Lloyd Wright, he began working in an architectural office. In 1929, he married his first wife, Catherine Woermann (they divorced in 1941), and a year later Charles's only child, Lucia was born. In 1930, Charles started his own architectural office. He began extending his design ideas beyond architecture and received a fellowship to Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan, where he eventually became head of the design department.
Ray Kaiser Eames was born in 1912 in Sacramento, California. She studied painting with Hans Hofmann in New York before moving on to Cranbrook Academy where she met and assisted Charles and Eero Saarinen in preparing designs for the Museum of Modern Art's Organic Furniture Competition. Charles and Eero's designs, created by molding plywood into complex curves, won them the two first prizes.
Charles and Ray married in 1941 and moved to California where they continued their furniture design work with molding plywood. During World War II they were commissioned by the United States Navy to produce molded plywood splints, stretchers, and experimental glider shells. In 1946, Evans Products began producing the Eameses' molded plywood furniture. Their molded plywood chair was called "the chair of the century" by the influential architectural critic Esther McCoy. Soon production was taken over by Herman Miller, Inc., who continues to produce the furniture in the United States today. Our other partner, Vitra International,manufactures the furniture in Europe.
In 1949, Charles and Ray designed and built their own home in Pacific Palisades, California, as part of the Case Study House Program sponsored by Arts & Architecture magazine. Their design and innovative use of materials made the House a mecca for architects and designers from both near and far. Today, it is considered one of the most important post-war residences anywhere in the world.

Q: Filter recursive array and only remove NULL value I want to remove all null or blank value but not false and 0 value from recursive array.
function isNotNull($val) {
    if(is_array($val)) {
        $ret = array_filter($val, 'isNotNull');
        return $ret;
    } else {
        return (!is_null($val) && $val !== '');
   }

}

$arr = array_filter($arr, 'isNotNull');
Input:
$arr = array(
"stringKey" => "Abc",
"boolKey" => false,
"zeroKey" => 0,
"blankKey" => '',
"newArr" => array(
    "stringKey2"=>"Abc2",
    "boolKey2"=>false,
    "zeroKey2" => 0,
    "blankKey2"=>"",
    "blankArr" => array()
    )
);

This give output:
Array
(
    [stringKey] => Abc
    [boolKey] =>
    [zeroKey] => 0
    [newArr] => Array
        (
            [stringKey2] => Abc2
            [boolKey2] =>
            [zeroKey2] => 0
            [blankKey2] =>
            [blankArr] => Array
                (
                )
        )
)

But i want to bellow output:
 Array
(
    [stringKey] => Abc
    [boolKey] =>
    [zeroKey] => 0
    [newArr] => Array
        (
            [stringKey2] => Abc2
            [boolKey2] =>
            [zeroKey2] => 0
        )
)

I used array_filter with callback function but it only filter simple array not multidimensional array. I don't want to use loop.

A: You could combine array_map and array_filter in an recursive called function. Something like this could work for you.
function filterNotNull($array) {
    $array = array_map(function($item) {
        return is_array($item) ? filterNotNull($item) : $item;
    }, $array);
    return array_filter($array, function($item) {
        return $item !== "" && $item !== null && (!is_array($item) || count($item) > 0);
    });
}

A: Don't need to reinvent recursion yourself. You can use RecursiveCallbackFilterIterator:
$iterator = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(
    new RecursiveCallbackFilterIterator(
        new RecursiveArrayIterator($arr),
        function ($value) {
            return $value !== null && $value !== '';
        }
    )
);

$result = iterator_to_array($iterator);

Here is working demo.
You should try to use as much stuff from Standard PHP Library (SPL)  as you can.
UPDATE:
As it is stated in the comments, the solution with iterator not actually suits for this purpose.
In the comments to the array_walk_recursive function you can find the implementation of walk_recursive_remove function:
function walk_recursive_remove (array $array, callable $callback) {
    foreach ($array as $k => $v) {
        if (is_array($v)) {
            $array[$k] = walk_recursive_remove($v, $callback);
        } else {
            if ($callback($v, $k)) {
                unset($array[$k]);
            }
        }
    }

    return $array;
}

This generalized version of recursion function takes criteria in the form of callback. Having this function you can remove empty elements like this:
$result = walk_recursive_remove($arr, function ($value) {
    return $value === null || $value === '';
});

Here is working demo.

A: Here you require filtering of an array for empty string. In this code below you can add no of checks to filter it recursively. Hope it will work fine.
Try this code snippet here
<?php

ini_set('display_errors', 1);
//Using more complexed sample array for filter it.
$arr = array(
    "stringKey" => "Abc",
    "boolKey" => false,
    "zeroKey" => 0,
    "blankKey" => '',
    "newArr" => array(
        "stringKey2" => "Abc2",
        "boolKey2" => false,
        "zeroKey2" => 0,
        "blankKey2" => "",
        "blankArr" => array(
            "blankString"=>"",
            "zeroKey"=>0,
            "blankArr3"=>array()
        )
    )
);

$result=recursiveFilter($arr);
print_r($result);

function recursiveFilter($value)
{
    foreach ($value as $key => $value1)
    {
        if ($value1 === "")  unset($value[$key]);//you can add no. of conditions here.
        else if (is_array($value1)) $value[$key] = recursiveFilter($value1);
    }
    return $value;
}

Output:
Array
(
    [stringKey] => Abc
    [boolKey] =>
    [zeroKey] => 0
    [newArr] => Array
        (
            [stringKey2] => Abc2
            [boolKey2] =>
            [zeroKey2] => 0
            [blankArr] => Array
                (
                    [zeroKey] => 0
                    [blankArr3] => Array
                        (
                        )

                )

In 2004, an agency in the Defense Department decided to sponsor a competition, where self-driving cars would compete with each other in a dessert. Short for DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency was interested in the technology because they wanted to put it in their military vehicles. Many institutions participated in the competition, and none completed the course. In 2005, DARPA decided to sponsor the competition again, and this time, more teams completed the course. In 2006, DARPA decided to take a break, and came back in 2007, where teams were competing in an urban environment. This series of events eventually jump-started the self-driving car industry, and many participants are still living in the past and working on the technology.
Fast forward a decade to 2017, I was a happy college student at Lawrence with a newly-built wall-following RC car. During the course of my project, I often bought electronics from Sparkfun. One day I noticed that they were hosting an Autonomous Vehicle Competition, AVC in short. I decided to enter, and did not do well. Well, I did so badly that I didn't even participate, because I knew my car wouldn't go far. Some participants' cars didn't even spin at the start line, and I was wondering if they anticipated that. If they did, did they just want to show everyone that they had a car?
In the summer of 2018, I was working on an internship, and took a day off to participate the AVC again. It was their 10th year, and I definitely won the participation award. Well, I didn't even win the participation award, because, again, I didn't participate. Many teams, again, wanted to show that they had a car, although it wasn't even spinning. I saw some new faces, and some familiar faces. I told myself that I would keep coming back.
The DARPA challenges gave birth to the self-driving car industry, and AVC inspired me to keep working on my RC car. One of the reasons that those competitions are so fun to me is that you can get to know people. There are other software competitions, but those competitions don't require you to be physically present somewhere. Robotics competitions do!
There are many regional and national robotics competitions. If you want to find out what is happening in your area, just search on the Internet, especially on Meetup. Those happen mostly weekly or monthly. For instance, there's a monthly robot RC car competition in Oakland. There are also national ones that happen annually. I mentioned the AVC earlier, which is in Denver. There is a similar one sponsored by University of Pennsylvania. If you want more variety of competitions, there is the National Robotics Challenge in Ohio. Whatever robot you are building, you should definitely try finding a competition, because you will meet interesting people and win at least the participation award!

Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are a buzz words these days; literally every magazine and newspaper has articles boasting the AR/VR craze. But where do we really stand on the AR/VR development? What are its implications? And what sort of applications should we really seek? These are questions troubling the scientists and developers alike who delve deeper into their disciplines to invent and design technologies that are on par with current technological needs.
Just as a brief overview: VR is a interactive technology generated within a simulated environment that embraces the elements of real world but limits interactions within the digital. AR on the other hand is a technology that allows the augmentation of our everyday interaction with real world with various sensory modalities such haptics, auditory or visual. We are going to alternate between both technological sides to post mixed finding on the subject matter.
How is the art world benefited by the recent advances in VR/AR technology?
Recently a digital museum opened in Tokyo, Japan. This museum is a collaborative work of individuals from various disciplines including computer science, art, and human-computer interaction to name a few. The museum, hosted in a space of 10,000 square meter, is operated by using the about 520 computers and 470 projectors working in sync to create amazing visual experience for the visitors.
Recent advances in VR technology has paved ways for exploring the art domain with mediums that are far from the traditional. One such technological breakthrough is the idea of art in 3D digital space. Google's Tilt brush technology combined with commercially available VR headsets like HTC VIVE and OCULUS RIFT could equip artists with an entirely new way to explore the art world.

Trump's strange health care strategy comes into sharper focus
Donald Trump visited Capitol Hill last week, and during a closed-door gathering with Senate Republicans, the president urged lawmakers to tackle health care reform – again. The plea was not well received.
Indeed, the effort collapsed with remarkable speed. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) told Trump there was no appetite among GOP lawmakers to renew a fight the party would inevitably lose, and the president soon after retreated, announcing the health care debate would remain on hold, at least legislatively, until 2021.
As of this morning, Trump's principal concern appears to be telling people the retreat was his idea, not McConnell's – a detail only he considers important – but the larger question is why in the world the president decided to pick this fight at this time. The New York Times, after noting that even many White House officials were "confounded" by their boss' move, reported late yesterday on Trump's strategy.
Soon after the president decided last week to intervene in a Texas court case on the side of invalidating the entire Affordable Care Act without a ready replacement, Mr. Trump and Vice President Mike Pence held a conference call with Ronna McDaniel, chairwoman of the Republican National Committee, and Mr. Trump's campaign manager, Brad Parscale.
Both Mr. Parscale and Ms. McDaniel tried to tell the president they could not understand what he was doing, according to a person familiar with the call.
Mr. Trump replied that if they did nothing, Democrats would continue to own the issue and that the other option was being known as the party that cannot figure out how to properly craft a health care legislative package, the person said.
That's funnier than the president probably realizes — because in the wake of his retreat, Democrats continue to own the issue and Republicans remain the party that, after a decade of effort, still has no idea how to craft a health care plan.
These simple truths weren't in the national spotlight, until Trump thought it'd be a good idea to put them there.
Looking ahead, the president's new strategy – I use the word "strategy" loosely – is to encourage Republicans to run on the issue in the 2020 elections, telling voters that GOP officials will create an amazing health care system, with comprehensive coverage, and at a lower price.
Trump believes Americans will accept vague and unrealistic promises from Republicans who've spent years trying to take health security from millions of families because … well, just because.
Strategic thinking does not appear to be his strong suit.

We successfully pursued a mesothelioma claim for Mr D who contacted us after he was sadly diagnosed with the incurable asbestos related cancer.
Mr D was exposed to asbestos when working for the English Electric Company Limited. He started here as a technical apprentice in 1962. He worked here for his entire career until he was forced to retire due to ill health. During his career the company changed its name numerous times and was also known as English Electric Company and Associated Electric Industries, General Electric Company UK, GEC, GEC Alsthom, ABB/Alsthom, Alstom and finally, Alstom Power.
Many of Mr D's jobs required him to adopt a hands on approach, particularly when doing inspection work. He had to crawl into small, confined spaces, crawling along pipes that were insulated with asbestos to inspect pipework and assess steam leaks. As he carried out this type of work he would brush against the lagged pipes, causing asbestos dust and fibres to get on his clothes, hair and skin.
Mr D was also exposed to asbestos from spray lagging which was done at many power stations. Asbestos powder was mixed with water and sprayed onto surfaces for insulation.
As well as being present when asbestos insulation was being applied, Mr D was also there when asbestos lagging was removed. He would regularly carry out inspection work in areas where workers were in the process of removing asbestos lagging from pipework. This was an extremely dusty job and Mr D and his colleagues could not help inhaling the deadly asbestos dust and fibres.
During the early years of his career, no precautions were taken to prevent employees being exposed to asbestos. Mr D recalled that it was not until around the late 1970s that he was first advised of the dangers of being exposed to asbestos and was provided with protective clothing.
Unfortunately, by this time Mr D had already been exposed to asbestos for many years and although he would not suffer symptoms for decades, the damage had already been done.
Over 40 years after he was first exposed to asbestos, Mr D began suffering with chest pain, loss of appetite and weight loss. His energy levels were zapped and he struggled to play golf, a hobby he had always enjoyed. Mr D was referred for a CT scan which showed he had pleural thickening but in light of his symptoms and doctors were suspicious something more sinister was going on. Further investigations were carried out, including biopsies and it was found that Mr D had sadly developed malignant mesothelioma.
After going through his treatment options with his medical team, Mr D decided not to undergo chemotherapy. He was concerned that this treatment would affect his quality of life and instead opted for palliative care which focused on controlling his pain.
Mr D had to take early retirement, as he was unable to carry on working as the mesothelioma progressed. Sadly, he was not able to enjoy the retirement both he and his wife had spent their lives working towards. As his condition deteriorated, Mr D required care and assistance from his wife and children. It was heart wrenching for them to watch the mesothelioma take over, particularly as he had always been so fit and well. Mesothelioma compensation was recovered for this element of his claim.
Mr D sadly lost his fight with mesothelioma just over a year after his diagnosis. The asbestos compensation claim continued on behalf of his Estate, through his wife acting as Personal Representative.
Although Court proceedings were issued in a bid to speed the process up, the mesothelioma claim thankfully settled without the need for the family to attend a final court hearing.
Due to Mr D having to take early retirement and needing care and assistance from his family, a total sum of £320,000.00 was recovered for his wife in the successful mesothelioma claim.
While we know that no amount of money will ever make up for the pain and suffering Mr D went through, or the loss his family experienced, the successful mesothelioma claim did go some way to holding somebody to account for his early passing. Mr D should never have been exposed to asbestos. He should have been able to enjoy a long retirement with his wife and family but that was taken away from them, due to the negligence of his employer.

Nicholson, William
William Nicholson was a painter and printmaker, born on Christmas Day, 1781, in Northumberland to an English school master and his Scottish wife. He was a self-taught professional artist, working in both Newcastle and Hull. In Newcastle he studied in the studio of the Italian, Boniface Muss (or Musso); in Hull he painted miniatures – and around 1814 he moved to Edinburgh. By 1820 he was well settled there, and remained in the city for the rest of his life. He was the first secretary of the Royal Scottish Academy between 1826 and 1830, before handing over his duties to David Octavius Hill. He exhibited at the Royal Scottish Academy between 1827 and 1844, and at the Royal Academy between 1808 and 1822. He died in Edinburgh from a fever in 1844.

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: One of the two women who walked into Kerala's Sabarimala earlier this month and became the first to defy the temple's ban on women of menstrual age - or between 10 and 50 - is in hospital after being attacked allegedly by her mother-in-law, say sources.
Kanaka Durga, 39, had returned home this morning after nearly two weeks in hiding because of threats by right-wing protesters. Sources say she was hit on her head by her mother-in-law. She is reportedly stable and has been referred for further tests in the hospital.
Kanaka Durga, along with 40-year-old Bindu Ammini, made history by becoming the first women below 50 in decades to enter the hilltop shrine. For the past 13 days, they had been staying in an undisclosed location on the outskirts of Kochi.
Kanaka Durga is a government employee and Bindu Ammini is a law lecturer at Kerala's Kannur University.
"I knew my life will be in danger but I still wanted to go into the temple. We are proud that we have made it easier for women who want to go to Sabarimala now," Kanaka Durga had told NDTV after her daring visit.
"It's about devotion but it's also about gender equality," she said, admitting that her family had strongly opposed her Sabarimala visit.
She said "a lot of people" had tried to dissuade her from making the journey, including police officers and friends.
After their visit, there were widespread protests in Kerala and a day-long strike led by right-wing groups and in part by members of the BJP and the Congress.

Stop pre order for the silver and antique silver since it is over-subscripted than 85% sold (inclusive of 10 sets for my collection).
I need some stock for resell. Thx's for the fake news which did help in the selling and attract more customers.
It is very low class of lies due to jealous.
Lucky and chinessemedals (Aka barsenault) are lies all times high to competing with me and pretend naive. Check those lies up which both of them comments it is illegal company which not registered in china. It can easily check online the company is registered under China with government seal as photo.
Beware of these 2 cheaters in market.
Beware of lies from Chinessemedals (aka Barsenault) and Lucky.
Here the sold transaction of ebay for the rare 1986 WWF silver 5 Yuan fiat coin. ONLY Pop 6 NGC for MS70 (bullion) and Pop 51 for PF 70 (proof). This was listed at ebay at 2K BUT sold at 1K. It is fiat coin and legal tender.
Here the Nanjing Panda 2018 Great wall 9 pieces set which you rarely see the antique silver enamel. (5 available in open market with mintage 29). This was listed at ebay 4K in very short time compare to the fiat coin listing above. It sold at 3.5K. This has show and proven china mint forum statements which non fiat coin (aka medal) worth metal base value only. Majority of China Mint forum members are fiat coin (legal) tender lovers and against non fiat coin (aka medal) which they will try all means to denigrate medal by telling you half true and half baked information especially those project themselves as expert.
This facts and happening has proven which they are wrong. In facts, legal tender and non legal tender with own collector bases and value. It is not non legal tender price will drop BUT legal tender will not. Those sold transactions above sold you which my sponsor items has more stable price as compare to some legal tender. However, I have to say this can happen in the other ways too. There is no risk free for both legal and non legal tender pricing.
As you know majority of my sponsor items are come with well thought of design concept and stories other than just top quality in the medal with advance minting technique which cannot copy by others.
Here the design concept and stories of 2019 Nanjing panda series (#2) Summer panda & Beijing Palace.
This new panda series is the flagship of non-fiat panda coin series designs by Cheng Chao and sculptures by Feng Jie. This panda non fiat coin is 2nd year of the series. Planned 4th of the series spring panda -Great wall(1st), Summer panda - Beijing Palace (2nd), autumn panda (3rd) and Winter panda (4th).
He has been given the nick name of China panda king designer among the local community of his outstanding achievements and contribution to the panda coins. Thus, Nanjing Mint will mint a new panda non fiat coin series in order to commemorate his achievements and contributions to China panda coins.
This year the cute pandas actively and playful during summer by climbing to trees and enjoy the sunning summer with relaxing nature habitat. As Beijing Palace has been selected by few dynasties of China emperor as Administration centre of the empire and home. It is one of the resemble of Old China Kingdom and full of stories.
The Lion statute at left represent male in china Culture and guardian of the Palace in many countries cultures. The whole concept of the design is a successful and happy man is going through his life journey via stone guardian (Lion statute) into the Huge Palace Gate with prosperous red doors by advancing his goals and living via the blessed and protected river bridge ( 护河桥) than reaching the top at the Beijing Palace Main building which represent the great achievement and fullest of your life and eventually perform the ritual at temple of heaven with blessing.
The first stage is the stone lion statute, second stage is Palace gate and door, third is the blessed and protected river bridge, Fourth stage is the Beijing Palace Main building and fifth stage is the temple of heaven with blessing. Each stage represent each paths of life of you. 1 stage which we are well protected by our parent (Lion statute) 2 stage which we have just completed the college and start our living and jobs by passing through the Beijing Palace gate and door, 3 stage which we pass through and create peak of our live in careers and family via the blessed and protected river bridge, 4th stage which the Beijing Palace Main building that is the peak of our life and finally the temple of heaven bless us in your older ages.
The box also is red color which means you open the box like open the path and gateway of the Beijing Palace Gate and doors and see the medal (Main building) with wow effect.
Here the sample of the antique non PM Nanjing Panda 2019. It mint batch by batch which the antique treatment might be light and darker due to it is hand brush antique treatment instead of using machine.
the antique treatment always make the contrast level of the design look much better.
The antique brass enamel will not deliver together with bimet.
20 mintage silver 62 g ag.999 180 degree rotate above 650USD. 5 pieces left for sell only. PM for details.
If hit target by all resellers which silver will left 15% and antique silver 12%.
The coa sample have loss in hosting issue. Here you go.
It states clearly it is by Nanjing official Mint which there is none BUT Nanjing mint as China official Mint in Nanjing China. So the rumour by the competitor are bassless. On top of it, there is none of any China official Mints and private mints OTHERS THAN Nanjing Mint can do this non-fiat coin with micro details high relief in 45mm instead of 40mm.
Coa states clearly which Cheng Choa as the designer and he will sign on some of the coa.
Deliver next week will start customer by customer.
A bit sick and tired last few days.
As usual an update of the sell status which Bimet 58% sold and Antique bimet 72% sold. The box likely red in color to reflect the Beijing Palace doors color.
Silver has been booked by resellers which will gone fast. There is a special version of silver which mintage likely to be 20 subjecting to final approval. It will stated in the same coa of silver. Almost all gone for allocation.
Take note the silver antique is at 69 mintage instead of 99 which expect fast gone too.
Bimet 63% sold antique bimet 75% sold. Expected bimet will sold another 5% more at China known customer.
Silver and antique silver will pre-order in April soon.
The special varieties has been sold at more than 650 USD per pieces. NO reseller will get it so no need to approach them at all.
Here the changes of the lion statute to correct position. It is sample picture which the delivery will be 1st week of April 2019 as schedule.
Unfortunate, I cannot upload the clearer picture which show the temple of heaven dragon sharly. You will be super happy as when get it on hand. No comparison with others because none can mint it till now. I am happy to be part of the team which produce high end job.
Nanjing Panda 2019 box design draft and actual.
You will realise the Beijing Palace main doors are red. This the reason which box is read. You will go into Beijing Palace after opening the box.
Sample coin in copper been done with bad picture.
Lion position did it wrongly. Will need to pay & change it even done wrongly by them. however, it must be accoutsble instead of cutting corner by saving costs like other sponsors.
Attached the specimen/prototype of Nanjing panda 2019.
All above is 40 mm diameter.
Just a sneak peek which the Greatwall will change to Beijing palace and temple of heaven.
As the panda in 2018 is in spring mood which with plum flower. 2019 will be in summer mood which a lot of greenery.
Design and mintage finalised which will release and inform in Mid Feb 2019.
Year been passed. Nanjing Mint has started the first signature and flagship panda series to acknowledge Cheng Choa the panda king designer achievement in 2018.
The 2019 design photo will publish in next few week and pre sale at mid February if the finalisation and approval stages are smooth.
Expected another excellent work by the Nanjing Mint team.

Talia is Two!
•Tuesday, May 19, 2015
Talia is two today! It kind of feels like the birthday is overdue, because she has been acting like a two-year-old for a little while now. She's talking and understanding so much, exploring and playing, asserting her will, and even being pretty social. It seems she wears the badge of the "family extrovert."
We have been having fun listening to what she can say. Before two, she's said things like, "Mom, glasses not working." Check out this conversation:
Talia: Uh, oh!
Mom: What's wrong?
Talia: Messed up song ABC, sad.
Lately she thinks is really funny to say "I tricked you!" We think it's something she heard from her sisters and she doesn't really know what it means. We hope that's true because a lot of times lately our conversations go like this:
Talia: Daddy, I love you.
Dad: I love you too, Talia.
Talia: I tricked you!
She likes to do puzzles and is good at matching animals and shapes to where they go on the puzzle board. Sometimes Lala takes the kids to school, with Talia coming along. She will sit right down and look at the bigger-kid books and toys and want to stay. We will give her a few hours of preschool each week next year, and we think she will love it!
Carl has still been taking the twins to preschool on the bus, but this week no one is going because the kids all got chickenpox. This is even after they had vaccinations for it; apparently it has been going around lately. Lala has been doing lots of art with the kids, letting them play outside, and reading lots of books with them. The kids like to play with play dough and stickle bricks. The twins especially looooove looking for bugs. Talia loves books, and she loves to eat the cherry tomatoes from the garden in the front yard. With the kids, we have lots of lessons about resolving conflict, how to deal with problems without yelling or fighting, and about being caring for people.

Q: Encode data into user-typed code, like an old game's password-save system I tried searching for information on this, but must not know the right terms to use...
What would be the simplest way to store information in a human-readable and -writeable passcode, with enough padding to make randomly guessed codes unlikely to be valid? Not unlike 8-bit console games' password-save systems.
In my particular case, I'd like to be able to encode three unsigned integers (with a maximum length of probably about 20 bits each) into a passcode under Java 1.4.2, and decrypt them on a web server. I was thinking about also adding a random or date-based value in an attempt to make passcodes unique.
The code could use numbers, mixed-case letters and potentially some simple symbols, but should probably exclude easily-confused characters like 1lI and O0. Since the user needs to type it, obviously shorter is better.
Thanks!

A: *

*Choose the alphabet that you want to use. It can have as many symbols as you like, in any order. An example alphabet would be ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789 which contains 34 symbols.

*Encode the data you want to save as a single integer by using bitshifts and bitwise or, or multiplication and addition. This shouldn't be a problem if you have about 20 bits of data as you say.

*Encode the integer from step 1 in base-N, where N is the number of symbols in your alphabet, then print it using symbols from the alphabet.

*Add a "check digit" on the end. Adding all of the output digits mod N is a simple and useful system. A check digit isn't real crypto and won't stop anyone who's putting any effort into forging a save code, but it limits the chances of a randomly chosen code working. If your alphabet has 34 symbols then there's only a 1-in-34 chance of the check digit matching on a random code.

*To decode, first validate the check digit in the received code, then decode the base-N representation (reverse step 3), then extract the individual values from the integer value (reverse step 2).

The number of symbols needed to represent k bits of data in base n plus one check digit is ceil(k * log(2) / log(n)) + 1, which is only 5 for k=20 bits and n=34.

A: You can encode your properties as Base64. The only restriction is that you must have a fixed size of your properties. You may want to apply MD5 algorithm or similar to the encoded string.
Take a look at this snipplet using apache commons codec for java 1.4
public class Base64Encoder {

/**
 * Base64 game properties encoded
 * @param properties list of properties as Strings
 * @return base64 encoded properties
 */
public String encodeProperties(List properties){
    StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
    Iterator iter = properties.iterator();
    while(iter.hasNext()){
        buffer.append(iter.next().toString());
    }
    return Base64.encodeBase64String(buffer.toString().getBytes());
}

/**
 * Decodes a based64 properties
 * @param propertiesSize list of Integer with each property size
 * @param encodedProperties base64 encoded properties
 * @return List of properties as String
 */
public List decodeProperties(List propertiesSize, String encodedProperties){
    List decodedProperties = new ArrayList();
    Iterator iter = propertiesSize.iterator();
    String decoded = new String(Base64.decodeBase64(encodedProperties.getBytes()));
    int current = 0;
    while(iter.hasNext()){
        Integer propertySize = new Integer(iter.next().toString());
        String property = decoded.substring(current, current + propertySize.intValue());
        decodedProperties.add(property);
        current += propertySize.intValue();
    }
    return decodedProperties;
}

public static void main(String[] args){
    String points = "1450";
    String level = "12";
    String lifes = "2";
    Base64Encoder encoder = new Base64Encoder();
    List properties = new ArrayList();
    properties.add(points);
    properties.add(level);
    properties.add(lifes);
    String encodedProperties = encoder.encodeProperties(properties); //MTQ1MDEyMg==
    System.out.println(encodedProperties);
    List propertiesSize =  new ArrayList();
    propertiesSize.add(Integer.valueOf(points.length()));
    propertiesSize.add(Integer.valueOf(level.length()));
    propertiesSize.add(Integer.valueOf(lifes.length()));
    System.out.println(encoder.decodeProperties(propertiesSize, encodedProperties)); //[1450, 12, 2]
}

Q: l2ping: Keep pinging even if the host is down I'm using l2ping to ping constantly a bluetooth device. It works fine until the device is disconnected, when i get a message saying the host is down, and the process ends. I would like the process not to end and keep pinging the device even if it's down, so when it goes up again i get a response.
In other words, I would like to get the same result that I get using ping with the option -t in Windows. Would it be possible with l2ping?

A: l2ping always exits 1 on any error and it doesn't have a feature like -t on Windows ping.
You can however wrap the command to restart it even if it fails.
l2pingt() { until l2ping "$@"; do :; done; }

This wrapper will restart l2ping every time it exits with an error or until you press Ctrl+C.
You can use it in your terminal or put it in .bash_aliases.


In this article I would like to bring together a number of threads which I have been writing about recently – principally knotworks (networks with ego) – which will allow me to flesh out more detail and help you uncover a number of dysfunctional patterns in your organisation, network or community.
The reason is that the journey from where we are now economically, to a more humane and ecological way of living starts with ourselves and our relationships with those immediately around us. And if we can comprehend, understand and heal these broken and inauthentic relationships, then we can start to rediscover trust, values and what it means to genuinely share and co-create, whatever we are attempting to envision, innovate and bring into this world.
If we start with the most basic archetype, it is the dysfunction of much interaction between people today. Have a think about your daily conversations. Which ones are truly satisfying? Which ones can you honestly say that the person you were speaking with really recognised who you are, what you could have brought to the conversation, and where there was full attention and actual listening.
Sometimes it can feel that it as if we are having conversations with our backs to each other. Not all conversations of course, but take time to look at which conversations you are having where there is very little attention from the other person or people.
Breaking this archetype is by no means easy, but it can be done, and this is where the power of much of the work that Maria and I are doing in organisations is making a real difference to programmes of profound organisational change. You have to change people's mental model, and unless you work at this level, with the dynamics of seeing, then any efforts at change are not likely to be as successful as you hope.
If we now move into more specific archetypes, the first tough one to deal with is predatory behaviour. This is where a person or persons can not see, do not want to see, refuse to see a person as they really are. They do not value that person, but do see that this person may have something of value to them. Their mental model sees the other person as diminished, unimportant and weak.
This is the antithesis of the sharing economy, where collaboration turns into the abuse of people volunteering their free time, ideas and resources, and hence is a reflection on the fact that a network has at some level a lack of human values. This archetype can be quite a wolf-in-a-sheep's-clothes, and can be found in the sustainability community, where questions of ego, vulnerability and insecurity still run rampant.
Whereas the Predatory archetype is aggressive and calculated, the blinkered archetype for me is more tragic, and represents wasted opportunity and an inability to prosper by recognising those who are in our immediate circles. Here the mental model is one of not valuing, not questioning, not showing interest in another person, and therefore either assuming, or concluding due to social-economic paradigms, that the person is not of value.
This is an interesting one, as it is a great archetype to use when working with leaders. So often there are treasures right in front of us, but when we do not see those in front of us, we fail to maximise opportunities, projects and visions.
It is not without reason that the first four chapters of Holonomics is devoted to the dynamics of seeing, and that we say that to see well is an act of humility. With humility, a whole new dimension of the world opens up, it's a powerful quality for leaders to develop.
This next archetype for me is a lot of fun. It is when you are having extremely close conversations and you look into someone's eyes and you read their body-language and everything about them reveals so much about their inner mental life, but trapped in their egos they are unable, or not mindful of how their being, how they are acting and what they are saying and how is revealing their true feelings.
As the saying goes, it is only when you have real success that you find out who your real friends are, and in this instance, if we are going to talk about the sharing economy, we have to look at the notion of what success is and how people share in it. Because right now it seems to me that one of the most difficult things to share is the success of someone else, and this is something that we have to nurture and develop.
I have not yet read I believe an article about the sharing economy which discusses the sharing of other's success, and that is because it is one heck of shadow to shine a light on and discuss. But hey, here's a start and I would be really interested to hear your thoughts in the comments below.
There is of course another related angle to ego-trapped which related to the socially-networked economy we are moving into, and we could perhaps call this derivation of Ego-trapped "guru syndrome". Nowadays, there is trend towards personal branding, but a side-effect that I see more and more is people making claims for gurudom which are just not supportable.
I am talking mindfulness gurus who are not mindful, ethical gurus who are not ethical, dialogue gurus who can't dialogue, you name it – people are claiming expertise where they have either very little, or none at all. I know that for a long time people have often been economical with the truth on their CVs, but I would like to suggest that the trend to personal branding is exacerbating this.
In a previous article I looked at how we can understand transformational leadership as a journey – a fractal and non-linear – journey through the found elements (see On Creativity, Ego and Transformational Leadership). The transformational journey has no start and no end, it is a lifetime of dedication.
But those on certain legs of the journey are able to comprehend when someone who is ego-trapped, and suffering from guru-itus, has not actually had either as original or profound insights that they pretend to have. In order to cope with this, I now suggest the following archetype for those who have gone past the threshold of liminality into new levels of conscious awareness and understandings.
This next archetype – discernment – is very much about non-judgement – since otherwise the person doing the discerning will also fall into the trap of ego. This is all about taking the plank out of one's own eye before trying to remove the speck of dust out of someone else's.
When we are discerning, we can see with open eyes when someone is being a bit of an idiot, and in these instances often it is only a true friend who has the ability to point this out to someone. This archetype is all about not seeing someone as they are now, but who they really are in the present moment, and also who they can become.
I don't know about you, but at every level of society I am seeing all sorts of nonsense and silliness and stuff that is hard to swallow. I am not Buddha, and I am no yogi or saint, but I do try and practice discernment, otherwise the destructive actions of others will eat you up, diminish your energy levels, and steal your enthusiasm and vitality which you will need to really reach your amazing goals and visions.
So now having taken a journey of personal transformation, we reach the stage of holonomic dialogue, wholeness, authenticity, human values and an expansion of consciousness which allows us to see and know people as they truly are. The background represents the Holonomic Operating System – the four ways of knowing (thinking, feeling, sensing and intuition) which will need to understand people, our planet and reality in their glorious fullness.
We have battled our egos, suspended judgement, and opened ourselves to a new dynamic way of seeing, allowing us to value others, nurture authentic conversations full of emergent creativity, and where previous tensions dissolve away, allowing us to live more happy and fulfilling lives, at work and socially.
I know I have been dealing with some quite heavy shadow stuff in this article which I have tried to lighten a little, but I feel really strongly that if we run away from these issues, we will just end up with vacuous platitudes about where we as humanity are heading.
Transformational work needs transformational leaders, facilitators and people totally committed to the journey. It is powerful work, and I hope this article has been of help to those of you who are changemakers, making a huge difference to our lives and the life of our planet. I think you all.
Nicely crafted. What´s often missing when we (me as well) musing on others and our own path – is the fact that all is about maturity, both on practical, intellectual, spiritual and emotional level. So, as I find it quite amuzing to read this post (I´ve had the exact same interpretations and observations) since it both starting to bubble up to the surface new clarity that flush away the foamy and opaque layer that somehow made it convinient to be in the water. On the other hand it always leads me back to myself as a judging ego-false self invitor when analyzing others state of consciousness (maturity).
Since everyone react differently to all we communicate, or speak into existence, we also need to be aware that we create traps when we in full service and intention only wanted to be nice.
Thanks Richard – I know it can be a bit of minefield commenting on the actions of others, but these are all archetypes of which I have personal experience and sometimes I feel I do have to speak out otherwise people will simply be able to get away with discussing things about the sharing economy etc which just don't reflect my own personal experiences.
Yes, you are absolutely right and I am not meaning it as negative (as you noticed). Me too, have experienced them all and specially amongst the leadertypes of archeic figures. You are doing a great work! Fortunately we are an emerging number moving in this direction and with a proper mindset and invitation pattern we can do things better together – this I´ve noticed is somehow an treshold to climb amongst the "conscious kind". since a lot of peeps rather promote their own methods than really listen to others with same type of message.
This is – what I noticed – part of our evolutionary quest for conscious maturity and definitely part of the "big plan".
Important stuff, thanks for this.
I think this article adds detail and texture to the TA model, but would you agree there are parallels?
Hi Finn, I have not studied TA but it is interesing that there are parallels. I am not trying to claim anything novel in this article, it is more a case of articulating frustration when people discuss sustainability in situations where these archetypes are still playing out.

Use the "3 P's" to Discover Your Career-Life Bull's-eye
By Kevin on August 25, 2011 in career
Most People are Deeply Unhappy at Work
According to the Conference Board, job satisfaction is at a record low and one out of three workers are hoping to find a new job in the year ahead.
Many still find it hard to believe but money alone doesn't lead to happiness. The big corner office, black foreign car and big title can still leave you feeling empty. Ask most of the 40-something year old professionals how happy they are. (I actually know more ex-lawyers than happy working lawyers.)
Mommy and Daddy Were Wrong
You can be very successful in a profession, but that doesn't necessarily mean you will find it fulfilling and engaging.
In fact, many end up in careers without much thought going into it. Many follow in the footsteps of their same-sex parent, becoming a doctor, lawyer or other professional. Others, without direction in college, take the first good paycheck to come their way and never look back.
Others may know the career they desire but feel that it's out of their reach.They think they're too old to switch.
Working For the Weekend Is Not the Answer
We now have a workforce of Zombies…dazed, unhappy, and bored creatures drooling through meetings, making copies, counting down the hours. We accept our fate because somewhere along the way we though a "good job" was about good pay and security. We thought we could do our 40-hours (like a little weekly prison sentence) and then have a great time at night and on the weekends. I mean, it's called "work" for a reason right?
Your Bad Job = No Sex + Bad Kids + Death From Heart Attack
Psychologists call it the spillover and crossover effects. Your emotions at work, good or bad, spillover to your personal life and cross over to those around you. Did you know:
Dissatisfied workers are twice as likely to suffer a heart attack or other cardiovascular event according to a Swedish study published in 2009
Dissatisfied workers experience less "marital intimacy" according to a 1985 NYU Study
The children of dissatisfied workers are more likely to misbehave in school, according to a 1996 Queens University study
You see? It's impossible to have a great fulfilling life–on nights and weekends–when you are disengaged 9-to-5.
Discover Your Career-Life Bull's-eye
To get that deep feeling of engagement in your career you need to find the intersection—the bull's-eye—of three very important things:
1) Passion—what are you truly passionate about? What is your ultimate dream?
2) Purpose—where do you want to serve? In what area do you want to make a contribution?
3) Pay—what can you earn a living doing? What standard of living will you choose?
You may have several answers for each of these questions, but the intersection of the answers is what you're after.
For example, you might enjoy being a coffee-house barista, but if you are a single Mom to two kids you might not be able to pay your bills with that career choice. You might be passionate about writing poetry and love supporting youth, but if being a poet can't support you financially then poetry should probably be left as a hobby rather than a career. On the other hand, if your passion is poetry and you enjoy working with children, then—depending on your financial needs—maybe you can become an English teacher or poetry professor.
The Hardest Work–Discover Your True Career Potential
Discovering your Career-Life Bull's-eye is hard work and takes a lot of introspection. In fact, it might take years to truly discover it, and may even change over time. But the stakes are high; what you are losing, and what you can gain, is nothing less than your happiness, health and relationships.

Who Voices Gabby Gabby In 'Toy Story 4'? One Of Your Favorite Stars Is Behind The Film Villain
By Brianna Wiest
The end of an era is nigh. Toy Story 4 debuts in theaters nationwide on June 21, critics have already shared their initial reviews and hot takes from the pre-screening sessions, and so far, it sounds like it's going to be a bittersweet and nostalgic look at the last chapter in our favorite toys' lives. Of course, there have been changes and additions to the cast, and some may be wondering: Who voices Gabby Gabby in Toy Story 4? As it turns out, it's an actress you already know and love.
Mad Men alumnae Christina Hendricks was cast to play Gabby Gabby in the film, according to CinemaBlend. Gabby is one of the toys at the consignment shop that Woody and Forky find themselves in while looking for Bo Peep. Though the teaser featuring Gabby is brief, and doesn't show the full extent of her role in Woody and Forky's journey, what we do know for sure is that she's a babydoll that is somewhat stationary in her old-fashioned stroller, she has bright red hair, just like the actress that plays her, and... she's secretly the villain of the story, Woody and Forky just don't know that yet.
Pixar on YouTube
Of course, the charm of Gabby Gabby is that she seems so endearing and sweet on the surface, but there are clues that she's trouble from the onset, as SlashFilm explained. First, she exists solely in a dark and dusty antiques shop, she has a ventriloquist dummy doing her bidding, and she seems a bit too eager to help Woody and Forky along their way.
Of her character, Hendricks says she was honored to get to take part in this installment of the story. "I think I didn't fully know the significance of my character because I never had the full script and I was working in kind of a bubble. I didn't get to work with the other actors," she told USA Today. "I think it's important to have a character like this Gabby Gabby because children are watching it. There are so many movies where there are bad guys and good guys, and she starts out (as) what we think (of) as a bad guy, and we realize that everyone has a story, and there's a reason why we become who we are, and you have to hear that story to understand them."
Jayden Marvel on YouTube
However, despite the missteps and trouble that characters like Gabby might be creating, the truth is that this film is about wrapping up a decades-long, beloved series.
In a review of the film, Vox movie critic Alex Abad-Santos described it as follows: "Toy Story 4 is a celebration of love more than anything — the magic in it to transform us and the terminal pain that arises when that love goes unreturned. If love sustains us, as Woody explains to Forky in so many ways, then we do everything we can to return and preserve it."
And with new additions to the crew like Gabby Gabby, the beloved film franchise has left fans with even more to love and remember for years to come.
Toy Story 4 premieres in theaters nationwide on Friday, June 21.

To date, we have shipped out 8,902 rewards. You can login to BackerKit at https://hyperdrive.backerkit.com to check your shipping status and obtain the tracking number if your order has already been shipped out.
Getting from "Ready to Ship" to "Shipped"
Our biggest challenge right now is to ship out the rewards in the "Ready to Ship" group. Many of you are in this group and have been on this status for over a week. As mentioned in our previous update #10, the reason for the delay is due to Chinese New Year backlog and congestion at the Hong Kong fulfillment company that we are using, E-Services Group (ESG) (http://www.eservicesgroup.com).
We are very frustrated because ESG is a large reputable company that has fulfilled our previous Kickstarter projects as well as for Pebble, 3Doodler, Newegg and many other major brands in the industry.
The problem started when ESG did not informed us about their congestion and various issues that we are only learning now (system breakdown, lack of workers after Chinese New Year, fiber optics breakdown, issues with Chinese customs, warehouse moving etc) until our goods were in their warehouse.
We have since diverted the rest of our goods to another fulfillment company (https://www.directlink.com) which is shipping out the rewards within 24 hours. Unfortunately we have all the backlog at ESG that we are pushing to clear as soon as possible. We expect to move bulk of the "Ready to Ship" to "Shipped" progressively over the course of this week.
We thank you for your patience and understanding as we work with ESG to clear this backlog.
The backers in this group are mostly late backers and we are aiming to ship out this group around mid March 2017.
Not seeing much movement with your shipment tracking?
Having trouble or need help with using the product?
Many of you have asked about using HyperDrive with protective snap-on MacBook cases. Unfortunately the way HyperDrive is flushed with the MacBook meant that it will most likely NOT work those cases.
Instead of snap-on cases, we have been recommending protective vinyl stickers like those from iCarbons.com.
We are happy to announce that we have teamed up with iCarbons to bring a special 20% discount just for our HyperDrive Kickstarter backers.
And now there is even a specially designed iCarbons skin for the HyperDrive so you no longer have to worry about scratches on your HyperDrive or MacBook every again!

I have not yet received my hyperdrive and it shipped on 3.22.17. If I check tracking, it shows is "local mail tracking" on April 11th, and it currently shows "In Transit" as of today, 5.10.17. Backer 18973.
hello, i still haven't received hyperdrive.
Hi, I am still waiting on my order. Checking tracking page it says Arrival at Destination Post (Country AU) on March 12. Today is March 28th so I am starting to worry that it has got lost in the system. Can you please advise.
I'm still waiting. My number is 13673 and I'm from germany. Is it still on its way?
I was so happy(er) when @George mentioned that the Dutch backers don't need to worry about the tax / customs... I guess that was too early to be happy.
Would it be possible to get this customs fee covered by Sanho ?
Got mine today. Color is great! matches my beautiful space gray MacBook Pro perfectly! Was a bit worried when I found out that it wouldn't work with my clip on case but the way my case is made I can slide that one section of the case down and voila, HypeDrive fits. The section of the case that prevents a flush fit is only about two inches and doesn't actually contain a clip. Thinking I might just snip off those two little inches on the side so I don't have to worry about it anymore. Either way, turned out not to be as big a deal as I thought it'd be. This was my first venture into the world of Kickstarter and I'm glad to say it's had a happy ending. Too bad I can't say the same of my second. Thanks Sanho Corp for a great product!
I backed late...but my backerkit page says ready to ship. Will those move to shipped this week?
I've just received mine!. 9 days since the packed was shipped to Spain.. It was labeled as gift so there wasn't extra charges ;) Thanks!!
I'm in China. I don't know where to track my order but in BackerKit survey said I'm "Ready To Ship"...May I know when I can have my tracking number ?
Per our updates #10 and #11, we had some delays. Sorry for the wait. Your reward was shipped yesterday. Just sent you a private message with the tracking link.
You promised delivery in Feb. It is now almost mid March, and mine has not even shipped.
In the first place, the HyperDrive does not generate much heat (less than 48ºC / 118ºF) and does not use the aluminum case as a heat sink. From an iCarbons rep: "Our skins hold in less heat than a protective case does and they are plastic based vinyl. Plus we do not cover anything that would cause any kind of trapped heat"
@George: nice info! Can you share the total time needed for the shipment to arrive?
@HYPER I've received my package, thanks! @Dutch Backers, PostNL will deliver the package through regular mail ('briefpost'). It is has been marked as a gift, so there are no customs fees.
Question about the iCarbon skin: it's all nice and pretty, but how about the heat dissipation if I to apply the decals? I am sure if use the hyperdrive to charge and connect everything else, some heat must have been produced, and experience taught me that applying decals doesn't really help to let the heat escape. Please advise?
You're welcome! Great to know!
You have not yet answered your survey. An answered survey is required for delivery.
Hello, I still haven't received my Hyperdrive. Please contact me at your earliest convenience.
@HYPER Thanks just ordered iCarbons skin for my hyperdrive to match my macbook pro!
Thank you for your kind words. Your reward is on "Ready to Ship" status which we are pushing to get shipped out this week.
Unfortunately your reward is one of those "Ready to Ship" rewards currently with E-Services Group (ESG) (http://www.eservicesgroup.com), the fulfillment company that is having congestion issues. We are working hard with ESG everyday to clear the backlog and get all "Ready to Ship" rewards (including yours) to ship out progressively over the course of this week. The good news is that it does not take too long for the package to ship from HK to Taiwan. We thank you for your kind understanding and patience.
Actually most of the rewards were either shipped or waiting to be shipped. We have about 2000 really late backers that will be the last batch to ship around mid March. You are backer #12871 which originally puts you in the March delivery group but you are now on "Ready to Ship" status which means your reward will go out this week.
Backer #2433 - still says 'Ready To Ship'. Just wondering if I forgot to do something?
As mentioned in the update above, we kindly seek your understanding that this is postal mail, not express courier so the tracking information is not constantly updated to the minute. Postal mail moves between different postal companies in different countries so if the mail man is not diligent in scanning the packages, new tracking information is not updated to the system. We have even seen cases when tracking is only updated after the package is delivered. Delivery typically takes place anywhere between 1-3 weeks from time of shipping. Your reward is definitely on its way to you right now, even if the tracking information is not up to date.

Well at least you guys are trying.
Yeah, the "late backer" reason doesn't really fly if you have only processed half of the rewards.
Hi, I'm backer 21583, when will I get a shipping?
I was Backer #1452. I still have not received my drive yet they say they have shipped almost 9,000 drives. When I complained about this on a previous post I all of a sudden got an email that stated my drive had shipped and they sent me a tracking ID. That tracking ID when I checked it online said it was en-route to DHL fro shipping (That was on Feb 28th). When I log in and check today (Mar 7th), it still says en-route to DHL for shipping. This is totally Bogus!!!!
My backer # is 5219. If you've already shipped out 8902 products, why is my shipping status still 'Ready to ship'? Weren't these supposed to be shipped out in order of backer #?
thanks for the timely and thoughtful communication. Looking forward to the Hyperdrive!
