What Are Examples Of Stereotyping?
People who eat lots of food are really fat and unhealthy
Lena Lambert answered
If you are in a school or educational environment and you ask girls to put away dolls and boys to put away cars you are stereotyping all children and people must be treated equally so you can say girls and boys put cars and dolls away, perfect no stereotyping make the world a better place =]
d ds answered
Stereotyping are assumptions regarding anyone based on their behavior, culture, lifestyle, attitude etc.
Some Examples of Stereotypes prevailing worldwide are:
Blondes are less wise,
Politicians are always corrupt,
Women are too talkative,
Men are too careless in relationships and are more oriented at physical relationship rather than emotional relationships,
Women are more honest in relationships,
Arabs and Turkish culture is stereotyped for Belly Dancers and is usually depicted in that way too.
Irish people are stereotyped for quick tempered.
Aliens are stereotyped for being killers.
Assumptions about others beliefs or culture or people in groups such as gothics and emos that is stereotyping to me
People who wear hooded tops are dangerous.
Men don't cry.
People who are left handed are gay.
Well an ex sample of Stereotyping would be.. Well when you walk down the street you probably sometimes think "What planet did he come from", or, "What a weirdo". Now that you have noticed that someone is talking about it, you know you have done it now. That is Stereotyping.

The modern business environment is operating in a highly turbulent time. Demand for operational activities to achieve effectiveness and efficiency, the environment has increased the need for organizational accountability both in private and public sectors. Meanwhile, one noteworthy gap in the management of projects is considering projects as systems existing in isolation from its surrounding environment. From an examination of the deficiencies in such an approach and how to avoid them, an understanding of the concept of the environment is very imperative. Besides, while many variables are said to cause process and system delays in construction projects, most have been conceptualized to assess aspects of project delays. However, most of these variables for assessing project delays still need improvement. This paper presents the concept of project environment, and proposes a comprehensive framework for evaluating delay sources in the external environment of construction projects through 'PESTLE' Framework Analysis namely; Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Legal and Environmental. Following the synthesis and screening of the literature review and the identified main sources, it showed that the major external sources of delays are associated with the 'PESTLE' factors. Thus, it is therefore established that 'PESTLE' framework analysis, if well understood, could be an instrumental tool for project performance assessment studies and contributes to the knowledge and practice on delay control.

A dead vulture with an 'unusual wound' and other suspicious incidents rock the Dallas Zoo
Over the weekend, an endangered vulture was found dead at the Dallas Zoo with an "unusual wound," facility officials said Monday — the third suspicious incident there in less than two weeks.
Earlier this month, a clouded leopard escaped her enclosure after, authorities said, it was intentionally cut. Similar incisions were also found at the langur monkey habitat, though none of the animals escaped.
It isn't clear if the death of Pin, a 35-year-old lappet-faced vulture, is linked to these earlier incidents. In a statement Monday, the zoo said it asked the Dallas Police Department to investigate the matter and did not comment further.
Pin the vulture.Dallas Zoo via KXAS
In the past 10 days, the zoo said, it had "substantially" increased security measures, including limiting access to outdoor enclosures and adding cameras and overnight guards. It also plans to offer a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and indictment, according to the statement.
"We want everyone to know how seriously we take the safety and security of our animals, our staff, and our campus as a whole," the zoo said.
Nova, a 3-year-old clouded leopard, fled from her enclosure on Jan. 13. Her escape — announced by the zoo as a "serious situation" shortly after 8 that morning — prompted a "code blue," indicating a non-dangerous animal was on the loose and forcing zoo officials to shutter the facility.
Zoo experts noted at the time that clouded leopards pose no danger to people. Still, authorities were unsure about the cat's size — which turned out to be 25 pounds — and a police department SWAT team was dispatched to help capture her.
"To set some minds at ease, if she has made her way off-grounds, this animal isn't a greater risk for pets than animals native to North Texas that roam our surrounding neighborhoods, but if you feel more comfortable bringing pets inside, please do," the zoo wrote in a Facebook post.
By 4:40 p.m, a "rogue" squirrel had tipped off zoo staff to her "hunkered down hiding spot" — about 100 yards from her habitat, the zoo said. A half-hour after that, she was secured and returned to her enclosure, which she shares with her sister, Luna.
Langur monkeys
The day after Nova's escape, zoo officials said an incision appeared to have been made in her wire mesh enclosure.
The Dallas Police Department opened a criminal probe, and zoo staff showed investigators a similar intentional cut on the enclosure that houses the zoo's langur monkeys, the department said.
None of the animals escaped, and none of them were harmed or appeared to be in danger, the department said. A criminal mischief report was filed and investigators began working to determine if the two incidents were linked, the department said.
The vulture — one of 6,500 on the planet— was found dead on Saturday morning in the facility's "Wilds of Africa" habitat, the zoo's statement said. A veterinary team trying to determine its cause of death found "an unusual wound and injuries, which pointed to this not being a natural death," the zoo said.
In a Facebook post, the zoo said its animal care team was "heartbroken" over the death of the vulture, which spent most of its life at the facility and sired 11 chicks.
"Given the recent incidents at the Zoo, we alerted the Dallas Police Department," the post said. "We cannot share many details until Dallas PD has had more time to look into this matter."
In a statement Monday, the department said patrol officers and animal cruelty detectives responded and began conducting interviews and reviewing video surveillance, the agency said in a statement.
The department did not say if there was a link between the incidents.
Dallas Mayor Pro Tem Carolyn King Arnold sought to reassure residents, saying in a statement that "all measures" were being taken to protect the zoo's animals. She encouraged visitors to report suspicious activity to authorities.

Film review Miss you Already – a little bit Beach-y

Drew Barrymore & Toni Collette in Miss You Already
Tissues are a must for any that go and see Miss you Already. The film is based around the ongoing friendship between whirlwind Milly (Tony Collette) and hippie Jess (Drew Barrymore). Since childhood, the two have been as thick as thieves, Jess always following in Milly's wake, best friends, no matter what!
When Milly, a mother of two, discovers she has breast cancer things begin to spiral out of control. Jess is there for her friend, but Milly seems to have lost all sight of anyone around her, as Jess puts it she becomes a "cancer bully".
Anyone who thinks, "I know that story", is correct; Miss you Already has more than a few similarities with the 1988 Beaches, staring Bette Midler as C.C. Bloom and Barbara Hershey as Hillary Whitney – just with a few role reversals.
And like Beaches, Miss you Already relies on the tight bond that women form, deep unconditional love with lots of humour thrown in – men are really only arm-candy.
Set in modern day London it does seem a little odd that both main characters are not English, and while Collette's British accent is good, Barrymore's absence of one is explained away. But Collette and Barrymore are expertly cast and the chemistry between the two is evident.
Both male leads however hold up the flag as Dominic Cooper partners up with Collette, as her saintly husband Kit, and Paddy Considine teams up with Barrymore as her life partner Jago.
Director Catherine Hardwicke is brave enough to not gloss over the gory bits and shots of mastectomy scars show us how rarely, if ever, we see, the reality of what cancer means to so many. This paired with the humour of how Milly tells her children about cancer and chemotherapy treatment Miss you Already really does show how cancer effects everyone around the person suffering.
Not knowing what to say or what to do is a bit part of how everyone around Milly reacts to her illness. Acceptance and humour is how Jess copes with the situation, Milly's husband Kit seems less able to find a way to communicate. Milly's mum, a vain TV actress, endearingly captured by Jacqueline Bisset, bumbles around never knowing what to do but always wanting to help – and in the end she has her shining moment, much to her own surprise.
Beautifully shot, the moor scenes in particular, Hardwicke howeveroverdoes the close-ups at times. Both Collette and Barymore are excellent actors and their skill would have allowed for a little bit of a distance.
So, even if Miss you Already is a bit Beach-y and not necessarily all that new, it is a modern day portrayal of what cancer does to lives. It is well worth a few packets of tissues and a perfect film for a night out with the girls. But men should watch it too, as they can learn a thing or two about women.
So if you don't have any plans tonight, the Irish Cancer Society has organised a Miss You Already Special Fundraising Preview Screening today (Monday 21st of September) at 6.30pm at the Light House Cinema, Smithfield Square. Grab your best friends and treat yourself to a great night out. Tickets are €25 each, which includes goodie bag and a drink at the pre-screening reception.
Man Up – the latest British Rom-Com
Posted by jensine in reviews

Simon Pegg and Lake Bell in Man Up
Of late there has been a lull in Rom-Coms, so it is refreshing to see Man Up hit the big screens this weekend.
Nancy (Lake Bell doing a good English accent) is a thirty-something, slightly depressed single who has given up on love. Arriving in Waterloo station Nancy bumps into Jack (Simon Pegg ) who mistakes her for his blind date Jessica, a twenty-something city-girl.
Before Nancy can explain, she isn't who he thinks she is, Jack quotes Silence of the Lambs and Nancy decides to take her big sisters advice and be spontaneous. The newly formed couple stroll around London and get to know each other, or rather Nancy gets to know who he thinks she is.
But this is only the first of many accidental meetings and as Man Up speeds through the various stages of a relationship a few strangers cause for much excitement. Half way through the date Jack finds out he has been having a great time with Nancy – not Jessica- and the perfect date goes terribly wrong. His ex wife (Olivia Williams) complicates matters even more and by the time Nancy and Jack part ways again you can't help but hope that the story isn't quite finished. And of course it isn't – the ridiculousness continues until it's somewhat silly climax!
Over all Man Up is fun-filled film and delivers on what it promises – a good old fashioned Rom-Com. And while this film may be littered with slapstick moments and witty one-liners it never once tries to be taken serious. Simon Pegg does a good job as straight-laced Jack but the true star of the film is Lake Bell. She sparkles and shines, makes fun of herself throughout and is a joy to watch.
So if you are looking for a light fill to enjoy and quickly forget Man Up is your best bet – the perfect date-night or girls-night-out movie.

Dwayne Johnson and Carla Gugino in San Andreas
Following in the footsteps of many a disaster film San Andreas tells the story of a what-if scenario: what happens when a hunky helicopter pilot is faced with two massive earthquakes and a tsunami, he becomes the hero who saves his daughter and reconciles with his ex-wife.
Like so many disasters movies a little bit of science is needed to set the scene, in this case this job falls to Cal Tech seismologist Lawrence (Paul Giamatti).
He and his team are trying to find a way to predict earthquakes and moments before the Hoover Dam crumbles and falls he discovers that his theory works. He hurries back to his lab, mumbling science gibberish – something about magnetic pulses and mini quakes – to discover that the entire San Andreas vault has lit up predicting that the next "big one" is eminent.
During all of this we meet surly Ray (Dwayne Johnson), who is grieving the loss of his dead daughter, his estranged wife Emma (Carla Gugino) -who has shacked up with multimillionaire developer David (Ioan Gruffudd) – and his stunning daughter Blake (Alexandra Daddario) who is about to start college.
So who cares about the millions of people who die when buildings fall on top of them or a massive tidal wave drowns them in seconds, as long as hero Ray (Dwayne Johnson) and his family, plus hanger-ons, survive?
As the earth quakes and San Francisco's skyline falls all around them, Blake teams up with cute, British, twenty-something Ben (Hugo Johnstone-Burt) and his know-it all younger brother, Ollie (Art Parkinson) and Ray, in his helicopter, abandons his team and sets out to save his ex and daughter. There is even a short cameo of Kylie Minogue, before she falls off a roof
But sadly there isn't much originality when it comes to San Andreas, and it stubbornly ignores the scientific advice given by USC earthquake experts to further dramatics. However for a film that unashamedly is based around its massively biceps hero San Andreas doesn't do a bad job.
All in all San Andreas is a predictable disaster drivel, no surprises and an unrealistic plot. But if you like big bangs, toppling buildings and lots of special effects then you'll enjoy two hours of explosive CGI fun.
Film review: The Book of Life

The Book of Life is a quirky animation film by director Jorge R Gutiérrez, celebrating Mexican folklore and the Day of the Dead.
The story begins outside a dusty old museum with a rag-tag bunch of temperamental children showing up for a tour and delightful guide, with long hair and a sexy smile showing them a hidden doorway.
With the help of wooden puppets she begins telling the old Mexican folktale of Manolo (Diego Luna), Joaquin (Channing Tatum) and Maria (Zoe Saldana).
As children the three are the best of friends, playfully teasing each other, both boys already in love with Maria, but on the Day of the Dead the stunning La Muerta (Kate del Castillo), the ruler of the Land of the Remembered, bets Xibalba (Ron Perlman), the lord of the Land of the Forgotten, that one day gentle Manolo will marry Maria.
Xibalba champions the adventurous Joaquin and decides to stack the odds in his favour, so he cheats and gives Joaquin a mystical medal.
The children grow up, each following the path their parents envisions them too, but when Maria returns from boarding school, things change, rules are broken and death happens.
But in this charming story, death isn't permanent, love triumphs and staying true to oneself is the biggest victory of course there is a happy ending, moral and all.
The Book of Life is an original take on a predictable tale with the colourful take on Mexican artwork adding to its appeal. The figures look like they have been carved from wood and painted in as many colours as possible, but tasteful and endearingly so.
And even if the adventure down to the land of the forgotten may be a little scary for some of the more junior viewers, the happy and huggable Candle Maker (Ice Cube) lightens the mood ensuring that darkness never prevails for long.
With it's 3D imaging and unusual design The Book of Life is an enjoyable film for everyone in the family and a brilliant Halloween treat.

This autumns most anticipated thriller Gone Girl is finally here and it doesn't disappoint. Adapted by the author herself, Gillian Flynn has turned her bestseller successfully into a Hollywood blockbuster.
On their fifth year wedding anniversary Nick Dunne (Ben Affleck) arrives home to find his wife Amy (Rosamund Pike) has disappeared. He calls the police assuming someone broke in and abducted her, but as the investigation unfolds things just don't add up.
Detectives Boney (Kim Dickens) and Gilpin (Patrick Fugit) soon change the investigation from abduction to murder and Nick becomes their main suspect.
However the police aren't the only ones watching Nick's every move, the media is all too present, dissecting his every gesture and creating a modern day witch-hunt.
As the story unfolds, with many twists, turns and surprises, we learn through flashbacks, narrated by Amy herself, all about how Nick and Amy met, fell passionately in love and had to leave their lives in New York behind and help Nick's mother unsuccessfully fight cancer.
But things aren't as they seem as Gone Girl play's with perspective and the situation looks very different from Nick's point of view. His problem is: will anyone believe him?
With the media showing the world what they think, Margo's (Carrie Coon) unwavering belief in her twin brother Nick and an obscure treasure hunt supplying some answers, it isn't surprising the Gone Girl keeps its viewer enthralled and highly entertained.
Both the well constructed script by Gillian Flynn and the direction provided by director David Fincher successfully manage the delicate balancing act between too much and too little information, unbalancing their audience at the perfect moment.
As further the story unravels the more bizarre the film becomes, but in a very enticing and captivating way. A lot of this great entertainment is down to the main actors; Affleck is both sympathetic and highly suspicious as husband Nick, and Pike is one-dimensional when needed and vindictively complex when called for.
Even the side characters lend both humour and interest to the film: Neil Patrick Harris is fantastically creepy as Amy's high school stalker boyfriend, Tyler Perry says exactly what the audience is thinking as a high-powered lawyer who made a name for himself defending murderous husbands and Missi Pyle is perfect as a talk-show host with a piranha-esque bite and smile.
But what is really surprising about Gone Girl is the unique look it takes at society, class and agendas, how happiness turns into ruins, how lies, deceit and the ever-present media form and destroy perceptions, even when the truth seems more obvious – and it's funny! At times so much so that there are laugh out loud moments, but don't think you'll leave the cinema with a giggle, your head may be spinning a little, you'll feel a little confused, a "what the f***" may not be too far from your lips and you'll definitely be thinking about Gone Girl for a while.
Overall Gone Girl and David Fincher have achieved something rare, a hyped up film that lives up to its promises.
Film Review: The Calling
Christopher Heyerdahl, Donald Sutherland, Ellen Burstyn, Fargo, Film Review, Film review: The Calling, Gil Bellows, Inger Ash Wolf, movies, screenwriter Scott Abramovitch, Susan Sarandon, The Calling, Topher Grace
Based in a small snowy town in Canada with a female cop as a lead The Calling is begging to be compared with Fargo. Sadly The Calling falls somewhat short as the dark humour in missing and it feels more like a TV drama than a big screen thriller despite its stellar cast.
Detective Inspector Hazel Micallef (Susan Sarandon) holds down an undemanding job in a sleepy town in Ontario. Despite taking pain killers and enjoying her booze she seems to know what she is doing which becomes more evident when a gruesome murder occurs.
An elderly woman is found with her head nearly cut off and a silent scream fixed on her face. This is just the first of a series of bizarrely positioned bodies with odd frozen facial expressions, all indicating that some ancient Christian ritual was taking place.
Hazel and her fellow detective Ray (Gil Bellows) follow up the leads and ,with the help of Ben (Topher Grace) – a capable transfer from Toronto- figure out who the murderer is: a creepy religious zealot called Simon (Christopher Heyerdahl) and the cat and mouse game begins.
The best thing about The Calling is the line-up of talent. Smaller roles are filled with big name actors like Donald Sutherland as Father Price or Ellen Burstyn as Saradon's concerned mother and Sarandon is quite intense in her role as Hazel, if a little cliché ridden. But it is Grace's usual charisma that fills the screen and an outstanding performance by Heyerdahl is what really grabs your attention.
The premise of The Calling is great, the atmosphere good, the actors terrific, but the script is sluggish. Adapted from Inger Ash Wolf's novel the screenplay to The Calling is overworked by screenwriter Scott Abramovitch.
So maybe this is the wrong film for Jason Stone to debut his career with, or maybe he is a more creative screenwriter and producer, but The Calling just lacks that little bit of oomph, to make it a great film.
long days and films

Yesterday was a long and busy day, but a good one. I started the day with going to a press screening of a film, a documentary about the Glasnevin Cemetery called One Million Dubliners (review to follow).
Then I hurried over to college to entertain my students for five hours, non-stop, no break, rewarding but tiring work.
Once I departed all the knowledge I could in the time given, I could feel myself dropping into that zone of depleted energy and tiredness but my day wasn't done yet. I still had a preview screening to go to with only a little time to grab a sandwich and some much needed coffee.
The advance screening was of much anticipated Gone Girl (review here) and since I had two tickets to the event I took a friend along with me. There were even some goodies stashed away beside the seats for us to tuck into.
I hadn't really heard much about the actual content of the film, only that the book was a bestseller, one to read and that the film was meant to be one of the best of the year. Whenever these statements are made I am more often than not expecting very much, as false promises and the film industry go hand in hand.
But this time around I was pleasantly surprised: the film is really good! Both my friend and I came out of the cinema, a little dazed, and we both agreed, definitely a film that deserves the attention it is getting.
Over a quick G&T we chatted, dissected and recapped the film and the recent events of our lives. So the quick turned into late and by the time a taxi dropped me off at my front door it was well past midnight.
So I am feeling a little pumpkin-esque this morning, maybe befitting of the season, but I just hope that my students will be good and forgive me if my usually sparkly self is a little dull this morning.
Film Review: The Maze Runner
Ami Ameen, Black Cooper, Director Wes Ball, Dylan O'Brien, Film Review, Film Review: The Maze Runner, Films, James Dashner, Kaya Scodelario, Lord of the Flies, Maze Runner, movies, The Hunger Games, The Maze Runner, Will Poulter
A mix between Lord of the Flies and The Hunger Games, the latest YA book to receive a Hollywood makeover is The Maze Runner. Like so often the story is set in a post-apocalyptic world and author James Dashner refrains from any vampire fangs or werewolf bites and centers his trilogy around a group of young boys.
Thomas (Dylan O'Brien) wakes up to find himself in a vacant filed surrounded by a group of modern day lost boys. He tries to make a run for it but soon discovers that the field is surrounded by towering stone walls with only a tantalizing gap into the unknown as a way out. But before Thomas can escape the boys catch up with him and he discovers a whole new problem, his memory has been wiped.
As Thomas struggles to remember, the boys explain that they all arrived exactly the same way he did, and they are trying to find a way out. This new found tribe have created their own form of society every one has tasks, everyone has rights but there are rules to follow too, the main one being: only runners are allowed into the maze.
Quickly Thomas adapts to this new world but as he learns about the maze hidden behind the walls, the Grievers that kill whoever ventures inside after dark and the mysterious letters W.C.K.D he decides he needs to leave and rescue everyone.
But when he breaks the rule and runs into the maze the carefully crafted world the boys have created threatens to collapse. And then, without warning, a girl is left for the boys to find, Theresa (Kaya Scodelario) and she seems to know more than they do.
The Maze Runner is a better than your average YA film, and it's low-tech vibe and handcrafted charm adds to a retro feel, making it more believable than it's excessively CGI'd contemporaries. The cast is well picked, teeny heartthrob Dylan O'Brien stepping out of his sidekick role in the 80s throwbacks Teen Wolf, makes for a strong lead and a buff hero. Camp bully Gally is perfectly played by Will Poulter, Ami Ameen cuts a good figure as the mature leader of the group Alby and lovable chubby kid Chuck is brilliantly captured by Black Cooper. Only the stunning Kaya Scodelario seems out of place as Theresa. But that may not actually be her fault as she is not really needed for the plot and has no real input to any of the twist and turns The Maze Runner takes.
Director Wes Ball has done well in translating James Dashner's book onto screen, but he does take his time in setting up the story, giving background and building characters. However once the Grievers make their long legged, metallic scorpion-like appearance and the Maze begins to reveal its secrets the plot picks up speed. But since it is the first of a trilogy the ending is left open and those few YA who haven't read the books are left wondering what the whole thing was really about.
The Maze Runner is enjoyable, just not really much more than that, it holds no real surprises and doesn't really vary too much from any of those other blockbuster YA films out there. But if you like teenage action and a enjoy a bit of escapism, The Maze Runner may be just perfect for you.
Film Review: Get-On-Up
biopic, Chadwick Boseman, Director Tate Taylor, Film Review, Film Review: Get-On-Up, Films, funk, Get-On-Up, Godfather of Soul, gospel, James Brown, movies, R&B, Tate Taylor
Funk, swagger and a lot of hair add up to the biopic that is Get-On-Up, a story about the life and music of the legend that is the "Godfather of Soul": James Brown.
Raised in South Caroline Brown grew up in poverty, was handed around from relative to relative and at the age of sixteen he ended up in jail. His love for music was rooted in gospels but he found his first success through R&B and later established funk.
Working off no consistent timeline Director Tate Taylor jumps around Brown's life story, throwing in bits of his early childhood, his troubled youth, his rise to stardom and his demise. It is a colourful potpourri of James Brown in his constant reinventions. But what makes it hard to follow is the array of characters that appear but are then never seen again.
And while the film is unapologetic about Brown's flaws, his erupting temper, his drinking and drugs, his inability to stay away from beautiful women (he was married three times and has more than the nine children he acknowledged) over all it doesn't really do the Icon James Brown justice.
However, whatever might be said of Get-On-Up ,one thing is certain, Chadwick Boseman's performance as James Brown is magnificent to watch. He's got the moves, the look and while he is mostly moving his lips to Brown's vocals he definitely does capture those mesmerizing performances that made Brown famous.
As far as biopic go Get-On-Up isn't bad, if a little messy but one thing is for sure, its star Chadwick Boseman and the music is worth the watch.
Film Review: The Equalizer
Antoine Fuqua, Chloë Grace Moretz, Denzel Washington, director Antoine Fuqua, Film Review, Film Review: The Equalizer, Films, Liam Neeson, Marton Csokas, movies, reviews, Robert McCall, The Equalizer, Vladimir Kulich
A remake of a 80s TV series The Equalizer is familiar ground for Denzel Washington. The aging action hero, unlike Liam Neeson, has been saving the world from bad guys since the beginning of his career and his latest collaboration with director Antoine Fuqua is no different.
Robert McCall (Denzel Washington) works at a hardware store by day and sits and reads in a Hopperesque diner at night. Sticking to a routine is obviously some sort of coping mechanism but when McCall meets prostitute Lena (Chloë Grace Moretz) is tightly wound world begins to unwind, and all it takes is 28 seconds.
McCall decides to help Lena and takes out Lena's Russian pimp but by doing so he unwittingly gets involved in a massive Russian crime syndicate. Unhappy about his loss of revenue the head of the organisation, Puskin (Vladimir Kulich), sends his enforcer Teddy (Marton Csokas) to kill the unknown troublemaker and soon people are killed, things are blown up and body parts end up where they really shouldn't.
As the plot slowly lumbers on to a showdown in the hardware store you can't help but wonder about the invincibility of McCall, could a 59-year-old really be as deadly as Denzel unwaveringly portrays him to be?
And that sums up The Equalizer's weak spot: it just isn't believable. While Denzel does cut a good figure as a close to retiring age ex CIA agent, his shirts can't quite hide his middle-age spread and this doesn't really convince us that he could highhandedly take down the Russian Mafia.
But the action sequences are entertaining, the showdown shot in a very unique location and Chloë Grace Moretz tugs at your heartstrings as call-girl Lena.
The Equalizer is engaging enough but just can't quite reach the needed sizzle to make a really good action film. But it is obvious that there is an intention to follow The Equalizer up with a sequel, and who knows maybe the next storyline will be kinder to the aging action hero.

Abstract: Temperament is a significant variable which affects multiple dimensions of human functioning. Present research explored the relationship of personal variables with temperament in a sample of 105 children diagnosed with ID in Lahore, Pakistan. The sample included both girls (n = 46) and boys (n = 59) and mean age was 9.02 (sd = 2.02). Rothbart's temperament questionnaires and Adaptive Behavior Scale were employed to assess temperament domains and adaptive functioning of participants. Intellectual functioning, adaptive functioning and clinically significant behavioral problems were studied as significant correlated of temperament. Gender differences were also explored across domains of temperament, surgency and negative affectivity revealed significant mean differences across gender. Intellectual functioning shared positive association with surgency and effortful control and inverse with negative affectivity. Behavioral problems shared positive association with negative affectivity and negative relationship with other two domains.

I want the sample deeplink example for single app which has links for multiple devices (android, ios, ipad)

A: They are the same for both Android and iOS if the app developer made both apps similar.
An example would be a deeplink to a facebook profile:

Arcade Adventure
Assassin's Creed (PC)
From: Dr. Warren Vidic
To: MAINTENANCE
CC: Lucy Stillman
Subject: Animus Functionality & New Subject
We've recently acquired a new subject for the Animus – make sure to change all passwords on our computers. We can't have him exploring the net and reading his mail from our system, now can we? Also, I've received news of a new security employee starting today. Make sure he doesn't forget to record our sessions and every move the subject makes. Unless, of course, pressing a key when indicated is simply too complex a task. Lucy – with the new subject arriving, I'll need your latest document on the Animus functionality.
Vidic
When Assassin's Creed originally came out I didn't have a powerful enough PC to run it, so I skipped playing it. About a year later, it was the first game that I tried when I got a new PC, and even then I had to tone down the settings to make it playable. Now, more than ten years later, I'm rediscovering the game in all its glory as it was originally intended, combined with high-definition widescreen and instant loading times.
Assassin's Creed is also the first game in the successful long-running series spawning multiple games and spin-offs. Contrary to what most other people have said, I quite like the setting of this game. I find the holy land during the third crusade a far more enjoyable theme than running around modern cities, forests, and desert islands. You take the role of Altaïr, who also fits very well with the environment, as do all the other characters in the bustling cities of the middle east. And as an assassin your job is to eliminate political enemies in the name of freedom.
The plot seems to be a little too tangled up, putting you in the shoes of a modern-day assassin who can re-enact his ancestor's memories through a machine called the Animus by using genetic memory. However, the best action comes during the twelfth-century sequences. These are presented as a third-person action adventure, with good swordplay controls and a lot of climbing. It also introduces the leap of faith action, which would later become a trademark of the series. This action saves the player from having to climb back down towers after the arduous task of climbing up by just jumping from all kinds of crazy heights into a stack of hay below.
In Assassin's Creed, each mission generally starts by scouting the area from a high spot. From there you proceed to save innocent citizens and help fellow assassins, both of which will provide information about your target. Once enough information is gathered, you are given permission to proceed and kill the target. Along the way, the game seems to borrow a few ideas from the Prince of Persia series up till the final boss battle, and Assassin's Creed can be considered as its spiritual successor.
When Assassin's Creed was originally released, it also brought forward the idea of freedom as a major aspect of the game, giving players the option to choose the order in which to eliminate their targets. This is topped with the ability to choose which sub-quests to complete for gathering information about the target enemy. Different sub-quests provide different clues about this enemy, and it's up to you to choose how to eliminate them. Although it is not necessary to complete all of the sub-missions, completing them results in more health available for the later ones.
In Assassin's Creed there is also an aspect of stealth. Keeping a low profile during any of the player's actions results in a faster elimination since high-profile actions get you in trouble with the local guards, which you then have to fight. There is also the option to run away into a hiding spot once you are out of sight of your enemies. Hiding among crowds was also a novel idea at the time.
In conclusion, I would say that Assassin's Creed is a short but unmissable experience even today. It is evident that most of the effort was spent on the game world and the character movement rather than on the variety of the missions. Although the PC version does have some additional mission types which were not available on consoles. On top of this, the difficulty level is mostly constant throughout the game, and does not provide a huge challenge. However, most importantly Assassin's Creed introduced a new sub-genre and set the way forward for a new mature generation of games that are not afraid to tackle religious questions and conspiracy theories.

Addressing Diversity at The New Jewish Home: The Changing Face of Aging
The New Jewish Home provides a supportive environment for diversity and is committed to promoting the changing face of aging.
Call it the wrinkling of the American population: in the next 30 years the number of people 65 and older will double to 80 million, but these wrinkles will be anything but uniform. The face of aging is changing as the elderly population in the U.S. becomes more racially, ethnically and socially diverse. Consider this:
Currently 1 of 5 older Americans are members of a racial or ethnic minority. By 2030, this number is projected to total almost 1 in 3.
By 2050, Latinos are projected to make up 20% of those 65 and older.
Nearly 12% of seniors are separated or divorced, almost three times as many as in 1970.
And by 2030 the number of LGBT elders will double to over four million.
There will be a projected 200% increase in the Asian and Pacific Islander populations during the next few decades.
The challenge for those who care for elders is how to evolve along with the changing face of aging. The Jewish Home legacy of person-centered care is an anchor for an approach to caring for a more diverse population. But beyond recognizing the needs of each individual, there are implications for staff training and development, and evolution of activities offered, languages used, food served and particularly the assumptions we make about the lives and families of the elders we serve.
Jewish Home is preparing for and adapting to the changing face of aging. From staff diversity initiatives, to the provision of communication services for those with hearing loss or other disabilities, to all-staff training to make our facilities LGBT welcoming (please read our LGBT FAQ), to offering telehealth devices with dialogues in many languages, Jewish Home is committed to being on the forefront of the changing face of aging.

Q: How can I print a square block in terminal? I want combination a QRcode,so I find the unicode '/u2588',it should be a square black block,But in terminal.
It can't correct display,the block become a rectangle:

So,I need escape the font?or ..
My font now :Dejavu Sans Mono
Code: python3
source code:
def print_cmd_qr(qrText, white=u'/u2588', black='  ', enableCmdQR=True):
    blockCount = int(enableCmdQR)
    if abs(blockCount) == 0:
       blockCount = 1
       white *= abs(blockCount)
          if blockCount < 0:
             white, black = black, white
             sys.stdout.write(' '*50 + '\r')
             sys.stdout.flush()
             qr = qrText.replace('0', white).replace('1', black)

Stout: Cloudy's Atomic and Molecular Database

Kisielius, R.
Chatzikos, M.
Porter, R. L.

Williams, R. J. R.
Keenan, F. P.
Stancil, P. C.
We describe a new atomic and molecular database we developed for use in the spectral synthesis code Cloudy. The design of Stout is driven by the data needs of Cloudy, which simulates molecular, atomic, and ionized gas with kinetic temperatures 2.8 {{K}}\lt T\lt {10}10 {{K}} and densities spanning the low-to high-density limits. The radiation field between photon energies 10-8 Ry and 100 MeV is considered, along with all atoms and ions of the lightest 30 elements, and ̃102 molecules. For ease of maintenance, the data are stored in a format as close as possible to the original data sources. Few data sources include the full range of data we need. We describe how we fill in the gaps in the data or extrapolate rates beyond their tabulated range. We tabulate data sources both for the atomic spectroscopic parameters and for collision data for the next release of Cloudy. This is not intended as a review of the current status of atomic data, but rather a description of the features of the database which we will build upon.

Open Meeting Policy
NRC Terminates Rulemaking re Special Nuclear Material Accounting
June 11, 2019 cecysnyder
In April 2019, it was announced that all five members of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) voted unanimously to terminate a decade-long, multimillion dollar program to update federal regulations on material control and accounting (MC&A) of special nuclear materials.
"The Commission has disapproved the draft final rule," stated NRC Commission Secretary Annette Vietti-Cook in an April 3 memorandum to NRC Executive Director for Operations Margaret Doane. "The staff should discontinue this rulemaking activity. The staff should evaluate the history of this rulemaking activity as a lessons-learned/case study under the agency transformation initiative."
According to the summary of their decisions, the Commissioners posted their votes from February 15, 2019 through March 22, 2019. The summary of their decisions included explanations of varying length.
Commissioner Jeff Baran cited three major objections to the proposal, with concurrence from NRC Chairman Kristine Svinicki and others:
• inconsistency on whether the updated rules should be performance-based or prescriptive;
• the absence of technical support for key elements of the update; and,
• that many recommendations "would not result in any real-world safety or security benefit."
As one example, Baran noted that licensees are not forced to establish material balance areas, item control areas and material custodians, but that all Category 3 licensees have taken those steps to meet the mandate to keep track of their special nuclear material. "The draft final rule would keep this performance-based requirement and then add a prescriptive requirement to take these specific actions," wrote Baran. "I have not heard a convincing rationale for this approach, and it is unclear what problem needs to be solved."
Baran noted that staff affirmed that general performance objectives were not expected to force revisions to "current effective licensee practices." However, affected licensees would still have to evaluate their MC&A operations – additional paperwork with doubtful value to strengthening safety and security.
"The staff has spent ten years and several million dollars working on this rulemaking yet the package fails to provide an adequate basis for a Commission finding that these changes to the MC&A regulations are necessary," wrote Commissioner Annie Caputo in her comments.
According to NRC spokesman David McIntyre, the rulemaking proceeding cost just over $2 million. By statute, 90% of agency costs must be recovered through licensee fees, although the agency has not stated whether fees covered this proceeding.
The 1954 Atomic Energy Act (AEA) designates plutonium, uranium-233 and uranium enriched in uranium-233 or uranium-235 as special nuclear material. These materials contain fissile isotopes that can be used in nuclear weapons. Facilities that hold the materials are ranked in descending risk levels in Category 1, 2 or 3.
Rules for material control and accounting are primarily covered under Part 74 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, which establishes requirements for NRC nuclear facilities or materials licensees.
An April 2008 plan from NRC staff laid out six options for a rulemaking on MC&A regulations. In 2009, the Commission selected a limited process to revise, clarify and augment the standing rules.
In November 2012, following extended development and public notice, NRC staff presented the Commission with a proposed rule. In May 2013, the Commission rejected publication of the proposed rule over its "two-person" provision, which would have mandated that no fewer than two "authorized and qualified persons" be present for any applicable data collection and reporting operation. Rather than continuing to analyze the provision, staff removed it and initiated another comment period for the updated proposed rule.
In October 2018, Doane presented the Commission with a draft final rule that, among other things, would:
• clarify current rules for item control at Category 2 and 3 facilities, those holding special nuclear material of low and moderate security significance;
• consolidate general performance objectives and expand them to cover additional facilities, including spent fuel storage pads;
• expand the requirement for maintaining tamper-safing procedures, if a licensee is using temper-safing (which is defined by federal regulations as "the use of devices on containers or vaults in a manner and at a time that ensures a clear indication of any violation of the integrity of previously made measurements of special nuclear material within the container or vault), to Category 3 sites; and,
• require licensees to establish at least one material balance area and item control area – zones used to ensure that special nuclear materials are accounted for and under control.

The annual stringing of the light bubs ceremony is the only time the Hipsters and the Dreadlocks are able tolerate each other. Tomorrow, the war continues.
Do these have the same re-hydration requirements as the honeywell and the like?
As an engineer in America, I still use English units. I see that you got the information you needed from the internet, which probably took less time than complaining about the units.
So temped to make a reflow out of a few of these!!!!
Sparkfun is not only adopting the kaizen approach and Japanese density distribution methods, but has gone as far as placing the Lean manufacturing consultant above all other department heads!

Al-Qaeda spokesman 'in Iran'
Abu Ghaith is a key figure in al-Qaeda's leadership
Kuwait has acknowledged for the first time that one of its former citizens, the al-Qaeda spokesman, Sulaiman Abu Ghaith, is in Iranian custody.
However Interior Minister Sheikh Nawaf al-Sabah told Saudi newspaper Okaz that the government had turned down an offer by Iran to extradite Abu Ghaith to Kuwait.
He said Abu Ghaith's Kuwaiti citizenship had been withdrawn following the attacks of 11 September 2001.
"Kuwait rejects the handover of this person," he said.
Sanctuary 'allegations'
Iran revealed in June that it had a number of al-Qaeda suspects in custody and that it had identified some of them.
INVESTIGATING AL-QAEDA
Who's who in al-Qaeda
Reports at the time said that among those in Iranian custody were Abu Ghaith, al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden's son Saad Bin Laden and also his security chief Saif al-Adel, sometimes regarded as al-Qaeda's current number three leader.
US officials have long alleged that some of al-Qaeda's more senior members have sought sanctuary in Iran, and have repeatedly accused Tehran of harbouring them.
Tehran has strenuously denied such allegations, although it admits that some may have slipped through its borders.
In February, Iran said it had rounded up more than 500 al-Qaeda members and deported them to their home countries.
Wanted suspect
BBC correspondent Frank Gardner says it is not clear when Abu Ghaith was captured, but he says he has certainly been a key figure in al-Qaeda's leadership.
He has appeared on several video and audio tapes, claiming responsibility for al-Qaeda attacks, and the tapes have a large audience in the Gulf, our correspondent adds.
One of America's most wanted al-Qaeda suspects, Abu Ghaith is a former religious studies teacher, believed to be in his mid-30s, who left Kuwait before the 11 September attacks.
Abu Ghaith reportedly became famous in Kuwait during the Iraqi occupation of the country in 1990, when he gave strong sermons daring the government to attack Baghdad.
He was allegedly banned from preaching in Kuwait after the country's liberation, because his sermons had turned against the government, the constitution and other Arab states.
His citizenship was stripped by Kuwaiti authorities citing "national interest" after an appearance on Qatar-based al-Jazeera television in which he vowed retaliation for US air strikes against Afghanistan.
