When Pneumonia Occurs with Flu: Think Influenza

Source: Jain S, et al. Influenza-associated pneumonia among hospitalized patients with 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) virus — United States, 2009. Clin Infect Dis 2012;54:1221-1229.
CASES OF PANDEMIC H1N1 REQUIRING HOSPITALIZATION were examined by reviewing two national case series from spring and fall 2009. During this period, a total of 451 patients with laboratory-confirmed H1N1 were hospitalized, 195 (43%) of whom were diagnosed with pneumonia based on chest radiographs. Not unexpectedly, those patients with pneumonia had higher rates of admission to the intensive care unit (52% vs 16%), and were more likely to be diagnosed with acute respiratory distress syndrome (26% vs 2%), sepsis (18% vs 3%), and mortality (17% vs 2%), than those without pneumonia. More than half of those with pneumonia had bilateral infiltrates (67%); the others had multilobar infiltrates (7%) or unilobar involvement (31%). Bacterial infection, mostly bacteremia, was confirmed in 13 patients (7%) with pneumonia and 2 (< 1%) of those without.
What was not necessarily expected was the finding that patients with influenza-associated pneumonia were less likely to receive antivirals within 48 hours of admission compared with those admitted with influenza without pneumonia (28% vs 50%, P < 0.0001). Eventually during the hospitalization, a similar proportion of patients with or without influenza-associated pneumonia did receive antiviral therapy (78% vs 79%); 91% of this was oseltamivir.
The key to this paradox may be that the very presence of pneumonia or infiltrates on chest radiographs was more likely to prompt a diagnosis of bacterial infection and administration of antibacterials, rather than trigger a suspected diagnosis of influenza. "Sepsis" (which was based on clinical judgment) was diagnosed in 18% of these pneumonia cases, compared with only 2% of non-pneumonia cases, suggesting either bias in the suspicion of bacterial infection — or even more possibly, a more severe systemic inflammatory response from H1N1 infection in those with pneumonia.
During influenza season, influenza (H1N1) should be included in the differential of patients admitted with severe illness and pneumonia, or "sepsis" and pneumonia, and presumptive antiviral treatment should be started as soon as possible, at least until additional information and the results of tests are available.

7 Ways To Take Advantage Of Failure And Learn From Mistakes #5MinMotivation - Lead Grow Develop shares insights on Leadership, Productivity and Personal Development. Join us during our weekly #5MinMotivation series and boost your inspiration.
You hear it all the time about the importance of learning from failure. That you don't avoid failure but embrace it because if you learn from mistakes, you become stronger. The logic is there but how do you get over the fear of failure?
I was watching the latest Guardians of the Galaxy movie from Marvel. At the end of the movie, knowing by now Marvel's strategy, I waited until the end credits were done. I knew that there would be 5 upcoming end scenes. Anyone who has viewed a Marvel film before knows that it never ends at the credits. There is always more to come. A preview meant to give a taste for more.
We are all in an imaginary movie. You are the star in the movie of your life. When you face an obstacle, or a defeat, don't let that chapter end with the credits. Create your own end scenes. What do you want the preview of your next scene to be?
Let it be one where your past failures propel you even further into success. That learning from your mistakes is part of the process of knowing what not to do so that you find out what needs to be done quicker.
Don't sweat the small mistakes. They are not worth your time or energy.
For the more complex mistakes, how can you change your mindset about the consequence of your mistake?
Mistakes can help us clarify what we really want and how we want to live.
Mistakes show us where we need to put our focus to correct the problem.
Failure is a teacher. It teaches us through analysis and feedback, about what works, and what doesn't.
The more you fail and overcome the fear, the less fear you will feel.
Learning through Failure will make you stronger and more bring you towards success faster.
Just like the Marvel end credits, failure is not the end of your story if you don't let it be.

The introduction of rat species (Rattus spp.) is a conservation concern for island avifauna throughout the world. I employed 3 commonly used monitoring techniques for rats: live-trapping, snap-trapping, and apples as indicator baits at several sites on Langara Island, British Columbia, with and without the presence of breeding seabirds. Capture rates of Norway rats (Rattus norvegicus) in snap traps in an ancient murrelet (Synthliboramphus antiquus) colony while murrelets were actively breeding ranged between 0.0 and 0.7 captures per 100 trap-nights (C/100 TN), while concurrent capture rates in other regions of the island outside of the ancient murrelet colony ranged from 2.2 to 17.1 C/100 TN. Live traps in the ancient murrelet colony also had low capture rates (0 to 0.5 C/100 TN) while murrelets were present in the colony. Once murrelets departed following their breeding, capture rates in snap traps in the ancient murrelet colony rose to 9.9 to 14.0 C/100TN, rates comparable to other areas of the island without breeding seabirds. Apples were a useful monitoring tool and detected the presence of rats in seabird-nesting areas where no rats were trapped with snap or live traps. I conclude that the presence of breeding seabirds undermines the utility of traps as monitoring tools and that research and management efforts dependent on the capture of rats would best be carried out before or after the breeding season of these seabirds.

Small Town Murder True Crime Comedy Podcast Plays the Davidson April 9
Comedians James Pietragallo and Jimmie Whisman are taking their true crime, hit podcast on the road. Each week, they present in-depth research on the inner workings of a small town and a murder that happened there, putting their own comedic spin on the whole thing.
CAPA presents Small Town Murder at the Davidson Theatre (77 S. High St.) on Saturday, April 9, at 8 pm. Tickets are $31.50-$66.50 and can be purchased in-person at the CAPA Ticket Center (39 E. State St.), online at www.capa.com, or by phone at (614) 469-0939.
Small Town Murder is often described as "an irreverent look into small town life and the crimes that destroy its white picket fences." (BuzzFeed) Comedy in true crime, however, is often a thin line to walk. BuzzFeed contributor Meghan Strapec goes on, "[t]hese guys know how to keep the intrigue in true crime while making the gory details a little more bearable." James and Jimmie always try to bring you the most interesting, and most unknown stories, every week." One reviewer notes, "[...] I'm certain you won't know the majority of the cases they cover. They make the stories easier to swallow by being absolutely hilarious."
When Pietragallo and Whisman first started the podcast, they were looking to build their audience as stand-up comedians by entertaining hardworking people all over the world and making their workdays or commutes go by faster. Each week, the hosts provide a disclaimer for the new listener who might not be sure if true crime and comedy go together. They start the show with a scenario that the audience is all in a car on the way to rob a fictional liquor store. "Are you in the car?" they ask. If your answer is yes, then there's no turning back. There's blood on all of our hands.

All employees benefit from an induction program as soon as they arrive in the LVMH group. This training allows them to increase their knowledge of the LVMH universe and its Houses, to raise their awareness of all the challenges that the Group faces and to discover the "métiers" that are represented within it. These days are opportunities to meet other employees with equivalent responsibilities who have joined LVMH at the same time, in order to build up a network.
Knowing our talents and understanding their future intentions is essential to ensure the continuity and success of LVMH. The performance and career review is a process in which all Group employees take part at the end of every year. It is an opportunity for exchange and discussion and takes the form of an individual interview between the manager and the members of his or her team, designed to evaluate performance, set objectives for the forthcoming year, and define career aspirations and perspectives in the short and medium term for each employee.
Training is an essential tool that every employee must make use of in order to develop. During the annual evaluation, managers and their teams discuss the development program to be undertaken. This must provide a solution to both each employee's professional aspirations and the organization's business challenges. A vast array of training programs has therefore been established by the Group, Houses and regions, in order to provide a perfect solution to the needs of each employee and each organization. A variety of themes are tackled: culture, business challenges, "métiers", management, products, etc. and adapted according to the level of responsibility.
An internal Group platform of open positions, Move, is hosted on the LVMH group intranet site. Applications submitted using this platform always receive priority attention. Mobility is one of the pillars of our human resources policy. It is a beneficial element in career progression within the LVMH group. Human resources committees covering all levels of responsibility and "métiers" are regularly organized in the various geographical regions in order to match internal candidates to forthcoming positions to be filled. Around 3,600 employees benefited from mobility in 2017.

The problem of salt in agriculture is not new. Worldwide experts estimate that salinity affects productivity on about 80 million hectares of cultivable land � just � about a total land area of a country the size of Pakistan-predominantly in developing countries having hot and dry climates. The problem arises when salt is left behind in the soil as water passes back into the air atmosphere through the processes of evaporation and plant transpiration. In areas with good rainfall and effective drainage systems. The soluble salts change in composition and concentration as water carries them away eventually, to the seas. But in part of the world having little rainfall and restricted drainage, the salts cannot easily be transported. They accumulate in lowlands, or in the groundwater below them. Of the nearly 21 million hectares cultivated lands in Pakistan, 1.5 million are salinity affected. Every year, 0.2 to 0.4% of the land is rendered infertile due to salinity.
A) SALINE SODIC SOILS: have a high Na content alongwith other salts (most saline soils in Pakistan belong to this category).
B) SALINE SOILS: white salts can be seen on the surface of the soil.
C) SODIC SOILS: high sodium concentration dissolves organic matter, turning the soil black (very difficult to reclaim).
CAUSES: Nature's own geographical and geological processes are a major contributor to salinity. Experts say that more than 30 million hectares of salt-affected land arise from natural causes, aridity, and high rates of evaporation. In many cases, problems are exacerbated by the loss or destruction of natural vegetation from animal grazing or the search for cooking and heat. Most saline lands, however, are in or near areas where irrigation is the backbone of farming, predominantly developing countries. Lack of good drainage is a major contributor to salinity. So is seepage from irrigation systems and drainage fields, which can lead to a loss of nearly half of the water. Gradually the groundwater table rises, bringing salts to soil layers where craps get nutrients. The result is stunted or dead plants. As surface waters evaporate' the fields become white encrusted, salt-capped wastelands. Farmers abandon them and agricultural economies suffer.
Rivers carrying soluble minerals to low lying areas. Rising water table causing salts to rise to the surface evaporate and form a crust. Insufficient natural drainage or ineffective man made drainage systems. Water seepage due to poorly humid canals. Excessive pumping of clear groundwater to coastal areas. Inadequate land leveling and improper crop rotation patterns.
Soil salinity is one of the important factors affecting agricultural production of Pakistan, where more than 6.23 million hectares are affected. Soil salinity not only affects plant growth, but also the soil microorganisms and can therefore enhance or suppress the incidence of plant infection by these microorganisms. Salinization and codification of soils are major problems in dry land farming. The soils in which the electrical conductivity (EC) of saturation extracts exceeds 4 dSm-1 are classified as saline soils. Saline soils possess poor physical properties and fertility problems that adversely affect growth and yield of most crops. The worldwide occurrence of such soils on 560X106 hectares, emphasizes the need for efficient, inexpensive and environmentally acceptable management.
These soils can be ameliorated by providing a source of calcium (Ca2+) to replace excess sodium (Na+) from the cation exchange sites. The replaced Na+ is normally to be leached out from the root zone. Amelioration of saline soils with chemical amendments is an established technology. Some amendments to supply Ca2+ directly to the soil, which then replaces excess exchangeable Na+, while others help to increase the dissolution of calcite in saline soils. However, chemical strategies have become costly for subsistence farmers in developing countries during the last two decades.
Salinity can be controlled, and lands reclaimed, though not overnight and not easily or inexpensively. One approach is constructing good irrigation systems that gradually improve soil conditions and prevent formation of waterlogged and unproductive fields. Systems need to apply slightly more water than the crop needs, to promote leaching, and then drain and catch groundwater so that it can be recycled for agricultural or industrial uses. Unfortunately, poor irrigation practices often promote rather than control salinity, and engineered drainage systems extending over large areas of land are financially out of reach for most countries.
Leaching or removing salts and flushing the salts. Using tubewells for surface, subsurface and vertical drainage, leveling land cultivating crops on raised beds, through sowing seeds and high density planting. Using gypsum for replacing sodium. It increases water holding capacity and aeration.
Biosaline agriculture suiting salt-tolerant plants to soil and water conditions may offer a more affordable alternative, though not necessarily an easier one. It depends upon good irrigation practices, especially where the groundwater already has higher than normal salt concentration. And it takes years of research and testing to match the right plants with the right soil and water conditions, then maintain the ecological balance for sustainable agricultural production.
Cultivating salt-tolerant crops, barley, bermuda grass, cotton, kallar grass, sugarbeet, oats, rapeseed, rice, rye soybean. Cultivating salt-tolerant trees-kiker, sufaida, amrood, ber, khajoor, jaman, dhancha and jantar. Amendment costs have increased because of increased use by industry and reductions in government subsidy to farmers for their purchase. Alternatively, where both irrigation water and drainage are adequate and the soils are calcareous, techniques for amelioration can be based on the use of crops tolerant to soil salinity and sodicity levels.

En coctelería, el vaso de tubo (también conocido por su nombre en inglés, vaso Collins) es un vaso de vidrio de forma cilíndrica, más angosto de diámetro y más largo de altura que un vaso común (vaso highball). Típicamente contiene de 300 a 410 ml de líquido (10-14 fl oz).

Uso en coctelería
Es el vaso ideal para servir los denominados «tragos largos» (o por su nombre inglés, tumblers): el Tequila Sunrise, el Mimosa, el Mauresque, el destorni, el Gin Fizz, el Horse's Neck, el Cubalibre, el Tom Collins o el John Collins, de donde proviene su nombre.

Por su forma, es recomendado para bebidas con gas, ya que ayuda a alargar el tiempo de efervescencia. De hecho, en España es común servir los «cubatas» (ron con bebida de cola) en este vaso.

Dr. Eric Mariotti, a board-certified plastic surgeon serving Walnut Creek, CA, discusses how patients get the most from their surgery when they visit a qualified medical professional for their cosmetic treatments.
It's no secret that cosmetic surgery and non-surgical cosmetic procedures are luxury purchases. They're often the kind of thing that people save up for in order to do something special for themselves and give their confidence a boost.
This makes it that much worse when someone ends up with unsatisfactory procedure results; not only are they unhappy with how they look, but they may have spent quite some time saving to have the surgery in the first place.
Part of my commitment to my patients as a board-certified plastic surgeon serving Walnut Creek and Danville, CA is to make sure that each person who comes into my office gets excellent care and value for their investment in the surgery. I do this by backing up my services with extensive training and certification.
I am certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), which is the only plastic surgery board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties. To achieve this certification, a physician must have a minimum of 5 years of surgical training and 2 years in an accredited plastic surgery residency program, in addition to passing other rigorous exams and standards.
More and more these days, I see doctors referring to themselves as "cosmetic surgeons," which is legal for any physician who performs a cosmetic procedure, despite not having specific training in plastic surgery. These doctors may be dermatologists, ophthalmologists, general surgeons, or other specialists and they aim to attract the same patients as board-certified plastic surgeons.
Here's a recent example from the news of a kind of cosmetic procedure that is best performed under the auspices of a board-certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist. In October 2013, a study was published in JAMA Dermatology that said there was a growing number of lawsuits over damage from skin laser treatments being done outside of medical offices. More and more patients in the U.S. have suffered burns and cell damage in the past few years.
Not only were these patients physically harmed, but they also lost their money (likely hundreds of dollars) on a bad procedure. Unfortunately, it doesn't stop there. Patients who have spent thousands on surgical procedures have also been "burned." One way less-qualified doctors attract patients is with discounts on cosmetic surgery. There are simple ways patients can avoid these bad experiences and it all starts with checking on the surgeon's credentials. It's important that patients make sure they are getting a procedure from a board-certified plastic surgeon, rather than just a cosmetic surgeon. It's true that there are some cosmetic surgeons who do beautiful, safe and meticulous work, but the likelihood of providing that level of care rises the more training and experience the doctor has. Board certification ensures those standards. I am glad to provide my credentials to my Walnut Creek patients, proving I'm a plastic surgeon who is certified by The ABPS and other surgeons should be as forthcoming.
It's also important that patients don't bargain-shop for surgery. Unqualified doctors are more likely to offer cheap deals, but the quality suffers. Just like you'd pay more for the peace of mind of a car that's never needed repairs or a house with a solid foundation, you're better off paying a little more for quality plastic surgery. It's a better value to avoid repair work or additional procedures down the road.
Dr. Eric Mariotti, a plastic surgeon serving Walnut Creek, says investing in surgery from a board-certified medical professional is worth it.


This is the time of year that really makes me regret living in an apartment complex where barbecue grills are outlawed. I often find myself stumbling into bushes and walking into fences while my nose carries me on a joyride through the neighborhood on a quest for burgers and shish-kabobs only to find that I wasn't invited in the first place. It's a small wonder that nobody has called the cops after looking up from their beer and bratwurst to find me peeking over the fence.
I do this a lot when I see unusual plants in neighbor's gardens too, and getting the grand tour of the garden is just as irresistible as the smoky scent of a cookout. I usually don't get invited to either, but last night was different! Granted, it was my wife's family who invited me, and the garden was full of plants that I put there myself a few years ago, but it made for a much less awkward experience.
I wanted with all my heart to run straight out into the garden but my wife insisted that I first stuff my face with a cornucopia of Americana - grilled hotdogs, potato salad, baked beans, barbecued chicken, watermelon and so on, all served up with a variety of barbecue themed plates and napkins, on a barbecue themed tablecloth with whimsical illustrations of grills, aprons, hotdogs and burgers in bright and cheery colors. My wife is the queen of a well themed party, and our eventual child will have the most amazing birthday parties ever celebrated. She had prepared white chocolate covered strawberries with red and blue sprinkles along with sugar cookies that were also in fourth of July colors. There was even a big cake that looked just like a hamburger! I keep telling her she needs to start her own blog but she's still much too shy for that. If she's reading this right now, I'd be willing to bet that she's blushing.
Canna "Australia" is getting a little big for its britches.
It was with a light heart and a heavy belly that I finally ventured into the garden with all the finesse of a drunken hippo. My mother in law's garden looked wonderful in the sunlight of the early evening, and the canna's flowers seemed to glow against the dull and faded gray of the fence. She has a lot of cannas. The newest addition to her collection was added by yours truly a couple years ago; a one gallon container of Canna "Australia" with deep burgundy leaves and fiery red flowers. It has since rocketed so high that the flowers appear to peek over the top of the fence, just to see if there's more room to grow on the other side.
Some of my plantings were doing well, and others were either dead or just hanging on. The Crinum asiaticum seedling that I planted years ago has grown considerably, but the Abyssinian banana (Ensete ventricosum "Maurelli") still looked dwarfed and stunted. The burgundy leaves have more or less shifted into bright green like the species, with only burgundy on the stem, underside of the leaves, and on the rib down the middle of each leaf. It looks pretty good, just small.
I had planted two lemongrass plants where the deck met the house, but they weren't as robust looking as the clump in my own garden. This probably had something to do with the family cat. Bella seems to think that I planted these big tufts of grass just for her amusement and dental hygiene. She apparently flosses with the smaller blades at the base every day, but I guess I would too if I ate some of the things she did. Actually, my gums would probably be ripped to shreds by the serrated edges of the lemony flavored grass. I'll stick to using it in teas and Thai food.
Behind the clumps of kitty floss is a big and healthy stand of scarlet milkweed. I like to let this one grow like a weed since it has the twin features of having beautiful flowers and attracting monarch butterflies like no other plant I know. It treated me to a simultaneous display of orange and crimson jewel-like flowers above dried seed pods burst open with silky tassels ready to spirit the seeds away to enjoy the aroma of some other barbecue blocks away. Oh to be a scarlet milkweed.
Your wife should start a blog if she's making hamburger cakes!! That's worth a goggle!
Lovely photo of the milkweed, and a happy 4th July to you!
Notsoangryredhead: I usually end up switching back and forth between the two names myself. Butterfly weed is the prettier of the two. :) Oh, and she didn't make the cake herself but instead opted to buy one from Publix since it looked so goshdarned good to begin with!
africanaussie: Thanks! I really do love that plant... I have a bunch of it in my own garden too but the aphids are making a buffet out of it.
What a fun 4th of July! If your wife doesn't want to start her own blog yet, maybe you can let her have occasional guest posts until she feels more comfortable? I can just imagine a future birthday party for a daughter. With her talent at themed parties and your talent for floral decorations, your little princess is sure to have a wonderland.
Bella must have the freshest breath a cat could ever have. :-D May I suggest you try stuffing chicken with lemongrass, garlic, ginger and whole black pepper before broiling/grilling? I realize you'll have to head over to your in-law's again but this is my favorite recipe for lemon grass.


The 3D, CG-animated family comedy Arthur Christmas, an Aardman production for Sony Pictures Animation, added a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Animated Feature to a growing list of accolades, according to Sony.
The year's best reviewed animated movie now playing in wide release, Arthur Christmas also won a nomination from The Broadcast Film Critics Association for a Critics' Choice Award and was named Best Animated Feature by the San Diego Film Critics.
This latest recognition follows nominations for 6 Annie Awards, including Best Animated Feature and Best Writing, from ASIFA-Hollywood. Since opening in the UK on Nov. 11 and in North America on Nov. 23, Arthur Christmas has earned tremendous critical acclaim, says the company.
The 3D, CG-animated family comedy Arthur Christmas reveals the answer to every child's question: "So how does Santa deliver all those presents in one night?" The answer: Santa's exhilarating, ultra-high-tech operation hidden beneath the North Pole.
But at the heart of the film is a story with the ingredients of a Christmas classic – a family in a state of comic dysfunction and an unlikely hero: Santa's youngest son, Arthur.

        </xsl:otherwise>

</xsl:choose>

Basically I need to use if or when condition for xml elements

A: Your XPath <xsl:when...> expressions were wrong. You used <xsl:when test="element name='state'"> instead of the correct
<xsl:when test="state">

which tests if there is an element state present as a child of a <cd> element. The same error was present with the second <xsl:when...>.
So use these XSLT templates for the right output:
<xsl:template match="/catalog" >

        <xsl:apply-templates />

</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="cd" >

        <xsl:choose>
            <xsl:when test="state">

                        Collection 1

                                Artist
                                State

                                    <xsl:value-of select="artist" />
                                >

                                    <xsl:value-of select="state" />

            </xsl:when>
            <xsl:when test="country">

                        Collection 2

                                Artist
                                Country

                                    <xsl:value-of select="artist" />
                                >

                                    <xsl:value-of select="country" />

            </xsl:when>
            <xsl:otherwise>
                <xsl:text>Error</xsl:text>
            </xsl:otherwise>
        </xsl:choose>

</xsl:template>

Awesome, them pre-made houses are great too!
Awesome, would you mind if I used these in a few commercial games??
Would certainly look good for some 8-bit nostalgia games, or maybe use them for flashback cut scenes...I'd even use them for images to print on t-shirts, if you allow that kind of use.
any problem using those on commercial project?
These are great. It's a shame I can't use them.

Q: How to get Side by Side textviews with one that wraps I have a listview with a custom adapter in which I have 3 textviews, two are next to each other and one is below the others.  The problem I am running into though, is when the first textview extends, it pushes the other textview off the screen.
I have not been able to successfully get this to work, here is an example of what's happening:

As you can see when the first textview gets too long, it then pushes the other text off the screen.  I would like it so it wraps but the date textview is also showing.  It should also be functional in horizontal view.
Here's the listview adapter code:
<RelativeLayout android:id="@+id/vw1" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:orientation="horizontal"
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

<TextView android:id="@+id/liName" android:textSize="17sp"
    android:textColor="#333" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="left"
    android:layout_gravity="left" />
<TextView android:id="@+id/liDate" android:textSize="12sp"
    android:textColor="#666" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="right"
    android:layout_gravity="right" android:width="60sp" android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/liName" />

<TextView android:id="@+id/liNum" android:textSize="12sp"
    android:textColor="#666" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_below="@+id/liName" />

</RelativeLayout>

A: I am assuming that the text view being pushed is the liDate one.
You need to put this one before the liName in your layout and set the width to "wrap_content" and align it right. Then you lace the liName to the left of it with "fill_parent" width
So it would look like this:
<RelativeLayout android:id="@+id/vw1" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:orientation="horizontal"
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

<TextView android:id="@+id/liDate" android:textSize="12sp"
    android:textColor="#666" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:width="60sp"
    android:layout_alignParentRight="true" />
<TextView android:id="@+id/liName" android:textSize="17sp"
    android:textColor="#333" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_toLeftOf="@id/liDate" />

<TextView android:id="@+id/liNum" android:textSize="12sp"
    android:textColor="#666" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_below="@+id/liName" />

Hope this is what you meant

A: The key was using "@+id/" for the first textview instead of "@id/"
This worked for me:
    <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/listEventTypeText"
        android:layout_toLeftOf="@+id/listEventDateText"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        />
    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/listEventDateText"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:layout_alignBaseline="@id/listEventTypeText"
        />
    </RelativeLayout>


"Good enough" in an emergency context. Sharing experiences from the field.
"Good enough" in an emergency context: sharing experiences from the field.
Based on the last emergency (Bangladesh during the first 3-6 months), Information Management Officers (IMOs) and emergency field staff will present their experience by answering the following questions: 1- Amongst the tool and processes they have implemented, which ones are considered good enough in the emergency context? 2- Have Open Data platforms and initiatives (HDX, Open Aerial Map) found their place in the emergency phase? 3- Do NGOs really use the full portfolio of services that they can access that is to day data, products, tools and platforms? During this roundtable, we will look at various tools and solutions ranging from satellite imagery, OpenStreetMap, as well as data portals maintained by organizations and platforms (HDX, reliefweb...).
Scheduled on Tuesday 30/10 between 9:30am to 11am.


? ONLY AT Wiitin – Exclusive design symbolizes the "Golden Snitch" from Harry Potter with a great golden color and patterns while spinning.
? SAFETY FIRST – Compliance with the US Standard Children's Product Certificate, ASTM F963-16 passed. Safe for children over 3 years old.
? DURABLE TOY – With trendsetting appearance, metal alloy body and stainless steel bearing, the Snitch offers amazing grip and controlled spin.
Wiitin Spinners, more than interesting! – Wiitin is always here to help, promise to offer perfect solutions within 24 hours!
The Golden Snitch, often called simply the Snitch, is the third and smallest ball used in Quidditch. It is a walnut-sized gold-coloured sphere with silver wings. It flies around the Quidditch field at high speeds, sometimes pausing and hovering in place. The Seeker's goal is to catch the Snitch before the other team's seeker, which is worth one-hundred and fifty points. The game can only end when the Snitch has been caught, or by mutual agreement of the two teams' Captains; the latter is very rare, however, as one team would have to lose. The Quidditch rule also stated that only the two team's Seeker has the right to catch (or touch) the Snitch, any player other than the Seeker to do so commits a Snitchnip, which is a foul in Qudditch.
Hold spinner in one hand and use the other hand to spin it rapidly, using small continuous strikes to keep it spinning indefinitely with practice spinners can be spun using one hand only using the fingers of one hand to stop and start spinning. These are perfect pocket pieces for people wanting something small, simple, discrete and fun-also effective for focus, stress relief and deep thought.
Add to Cart, catch the Snitch and be the MVP on the Quidditch Field!
? HIGH SPEED – A gentler power provides on an average 1 minute incredibly fast, smooth and quiet spinning time. Suitable for adults and kids.
? THE BEST FIDGET TOY – Great gift for birthday, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year, also good for anxiety, focusing, ADHD, ADD, autism and other attention disorder issues like nail biting, smoking, leg shaking etc.

Product Creators: How much do you pay for your sales page to be built professionally? As expected, you will need to collect emails, follow up with an autoresponder, have social proof and a sales funnel. BuilderAll will cater to all those needs.
I would be glad to pay $50 a month or even up to $100 per month for all of the services they provide. Yet, they're charging at only $10 and $30 a month.

An essential factor in their development is interaction with other young people from like-minded families. This is as true during the early years of child-raising as it is in the later. It should be kept in mind, however, that the younger we help them find a wholesome community of friends the better, since the early years set the foundation for later developments. Younger or older, their community need not be a formal one, nor does it depend on constant traffic, since a little goes a long way in family life. Often, it is enough for a child or teen to know that he is not alone and that now and then he can have quality time with good friends. When our children first met peers who had parents as "crazy" as theirs, the situation in our family changed dramatically for the better. We found ourselves no longer scrambling to say "no" to an influx of external pressures, and instead were saying "yes" to the increasingly wholesome influences that come with a healthy community life. No family in our circle of friends had exactly the same policies or understandings regarding various aspects of the culture as any other family, but we all sensed the need for more effective discernment. We agreed that the power of modern culture is so great that there really is no safe place on this earth. Most of all, we were of one mind and heart regarding the truth that a very great grace was needed—indeed, an unprecedented grace.
Most of us have found from experience that certain "strategies" are helpful, and can gradually shift the balance in our children's lives.
First and foremost, we parents must beg God for the graces we need in order to protect, guide, and nourish our children according to the mind of Christ. We must never discount grace, because God and all heaven desire to help our children. Ask our Father daily for this good "bread" and he will give it. We might think of this as the over-all covering prayer.
In addition, we should be praying for specific needs and difficult crisis moments as they arise. Ask God for particular graces for the specific battles that develop over our children's souls.
Ask God for the gift of an inner "radar" that will alert you to any incoming cultural material that may have a negative influence. It can enter your child's life as mandatory reading material at school, or as birthday gifts from well-meaning extended family or friends, or through friends bringing a video, DVD, or music CD over to the house, or who will have such material at their own parties to which your child is invited, etc. The inner faculty is already there in us; it just needs awakening and practice.
Attend daily Mass, if possible. And frequent confession. If you have in your region any perpetual adoration chapels where the Blessed Sacrament is exposed, make visits there as often as you can, and take any young people along who are willing to go. Make the visits short in the beginning, so you don't turn them off. They won't become mystics on the first visit and may find it "boring." But the Lord is pouring out unusual graces through this practice, and I believe he wants all of us to come to him in this way more and more. Pope John Paul II urged every parish in the world to have such a chapel, or to make the exposed Blessed Sacrament available as often as possible. He encouraged everyone to frequently visit Our Lord in this way.
Ask Our Lady, the Mother of God, to intercede for your family. We pray the Rosary every day as a family, and my wife and I have found this to be a major influence in bringing our children through the swamp of modern society to mature Christian adulthood. They all have faith and are leading good lives. Not without many problems along the way, however. But in retrospect I see that my own (and my wife's) lack of complete trust as we went through dark times made it harder on us all. We came through, but it needn't have been so anxiety-ridden as it was. If we had prayed more and relied less on our own strategies, it would have been so much easier. God has given Our Lady a major role in our times in overcoming the devourer of souls. If you ask for her help—and keep asking day by day—she will pour out the graces you need, which have been given by her Son for precisely this purpose.
The help of the guardian angels is especially important. Pray to your child's guardian angel, and from his youngest years teach your child to pray to his guardian angel every day.
Abandon forever any tendency to express anxiety (in content and tone) in your discussions with your children. Anxious or pleading tones merely reinforce their subliminal feeling or conscious opinion that maybe Mom or Dad is a bit extreme and doesn't understand. Fear breeds frustration and anger, and anger is especially corrosive when expressed. You lose credibility quickly if you give in to it. Ask the Holy Spirit for a deep inner gift of confidence in the eventual victory of Christ in your children's lives and their vocations in life. Ask him for supernatural peace, calm, and trust! Ask for this every day, since we know that every day brings challenges that can so easily undermine our trust.
As far as possible, be of one mind and heart with your spouse on these issues, because if the children sense any conflict between parents on a given subject, your authority is seriously weakened.
Search high and low for stimulating young people's literature. We have browsed used bookshops for more than thirty years, and have about 6000 books in our home, much of it children's and young adults' literature. Our children will never exhaust this supply, and we keep adding to it. Now our grandchildren are beginning to dip into it. To heck with retirement funds! This is our investment in the future.
Hand-to-hand combat: The adversary makes war on our children's souls at every turn in this society. Though you've probably gone a very long way toward protecting your family from the worst, no one is immune, no matter how many things we get right. There is always, in every generation throughout history, a struggle over each and every soul. This means fully-awake parents need to develop strategies of prayer. A good place to start is all of the above. But you might want to add this: Every time you sense or know that something rotten (however minor it may appear) has entered your child's life, pray the prayer to St. Michael the Archangel for his protection. I also pray for the most hardened sinner I know (a category in which I include myself), and make a resolve to do this every time something corrupting reaches my family. This is the primary level of spiritual combat, which should be a normal aspect of every believer's life. Turn Satan's tactics against him. If every time he makes a little wound in your child's life it rebounds against him, his influence is weakened, his territory is diminished. It is of utmost importance to know (and remember) that he won't give up trying to harm you in the beginning. He may even come on stronger in order to discourage you, make you drop the habit of praying against him, make you think it's a useless habit that leaves you worse off than ever. He is very clever. He has a PhD in psychology.
The saints and great spiritual directors tell us that discouragement is the devil's major tactic in bringing us down. Temptation to sin, of course, is his first line of offence against us all, but I'm referring to those people who have begun to make progress in virtue and spiritual growth. If the enemy cannot entice you into grave sin, he will switch to his next best tactic, which is discouragement. So, please don't ever give up. If you keep turning his tactics against him, gradually his influence will decline, and God will bring more and more graces and good food into your lives on every level. As we know, this struggle will continue throughout our lives; this is just normal Christian life in a war zone. We have all the helps we need in order to bring ourselves and our families through to Paradise. Yet God always respects our freedom, he will force nothing on us, so we must ask for everything we need.
Use the sacramentals of holy water, blessed oil, or blessed salt (maybe all three!). The children's father should bless them every night, and if possible every morning. And if he can't, mother should do it. Always make these moments brief, gentle, and loving, never fear-driven. Fear blocks the bond of spiritual communication between God and man, and between soul and soul.
Pray and trust and make silent hidden sacrifices, offering them to the Lord for your children.
Stand firm. Be willing to be misunderstood. Be willing to be considered a fanatic, paranoid, and obsessive-compulsive. But always stand firm with love. Calm, unshakeable love, with an iron core of determination. No defensiveness, no hardness of face or heart—just be unbudge-able. Though your children may rant and resist you, in their heart of hearts they will feel more secure with such a strong mother or father (or both), and they will respect you for it. As a result, in time they will listen to you and follow your guidance more attentively.
Above all things, TRUST IN THE LORD!
In the presence of God who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ; and this will be made manifest at the proper time by the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone has immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.
"Behold, I am coming soon. I bring with me the recompense I will give to each according to his deeds. I am the Alpha and Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.

Q: import file to zookeeper in java I am using zookeeper for configuration management for my java microservices. For that I use apache curator and java zookeeper client.
How can I import a configuration file(properties or json) to zookeeper when the microservice initializes?

A: You should use curator framework if you wanted to load your config in zookeeper. See the post about how you may use curator framework.
There is a some base code example for yml files (for spring config):
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import lombok.extern.slf4j.Slf4j;
import org.apache.curator.framework.CuratorFramework;
import org.apache.curator.framework.CuratorFrameworkFactory;
import org.apache.curator.retry.BoundedExponentialBackoffRetry;
import org.springframework.core.io.ClassPathResource;
import org.yaml.snakeyaml.Yaml;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.Properties;

@Slf4j
public class LoadConfigsInZoo {
    // base path of your config
    // /CONFIG_PATH/APP_NAME,CONTEXT_NAME
    private static final String BASE_PATH = "/configuration/myApp";
    private static final String ZOO_URL = "localhost:2181";
    private static final String CONFIG_FILE = "bootstrap.yml";
    private final ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        new LoadConfigsInZoo().loadConfig();
    }

    private void loadConfig() throws IOException {
        BoundedExponentialBackoffRetry retryPolicy =
                new BoundedExponentialBackoffRetry(100, 300, 10);
        Map<String, String> config = flattenInnerProperties("", getContentOfYaml(CONFIG_FILE));

        try (CuratorFramework client = CuratorFrameworkFactory.builder()
                .connectString(ZOO_URL)
                .retryPolicy(retryPolicy)
                .build()) {
            client.start();
            for (Map.Entry<String, String> entry : config.entrySet()) {
                String path = createPath(BASE_PATH, entry.getKey());
                try {
                    log.info("Try add node with name '{}'", path);
                    client.create()

                    log.info("Node with name '{}' was created", path);
                } catch (Exception e) {
                    log.warn("Unable to create node by path: {}, exception: {}", path, e.getMessage());
                }
            }
        }
    }

        return result;
    }

    private String createPath(String basePath, String configName) {
        return basePath + "/" + configName.replaceAll("\\.", "/");
    }
}

A: I had a similar problem, where we were using zookeeper as the config server and the configuration was stored in yml format in file.
Instead of writing code for creating the znode hierarchy dynamically as per yml file, I found a groovy based tool which basically does the same.
You need to have groovy installed and run as below
zookeeperdump.groovy -s localhost:2181 -c /config/application < dump.yml


Here's another one from the "Laughable if it Wasn't So Deadly Serious" Department: By now, we're quite familiar with the phenomenon of the left coordinating its deceitful talking points. Naturally, the most offensive aspect of this is that the American press echoes White House talking points verbatim.
On NBC's "Meet the Press" this past Sunday, veteran journalist Ted Koppel bemoaned the popular success of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, then accused him of acting as "the Recruiter-in-Chief for ISIS" because some of his proposed policies will alienate Muslims. Koppel's reasoning was that Muslims are going to get ticked off at Trump's rhetoric and go join ISIS, which will pose an increased threat to America.
Next item: Early this week on MSNBC, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo went ballistic on Trump, claiming that he is a "recruitment poster for ISIS." Norman Lear, long-time left wing activist and creator of the 1970s TV sitcom "All in the Family" recently told an audience that Donald Trump scares him more than ISIS. He also did his level best to equate such things as "hate speech" and "Islamophobia" with conservatives, Republicans, and anyone else who represents for our Republic.
Full disclosure: I get trashed on a regular basis by Right Wing Watch, a web presence of People for the American Way, an activist group Lear founded in 1981. I describe Lear's vast and enduring contributions to cultural rot and racist propaganda in my book Negrophilia: From Slave Block to Pedestal – America's Racial Obsession.
What's ironic, of course, is that these leftist hacks are projecting upon Trump that of which their exalted bringer of fundamental transformation is guilty: A relationship to ISIS.
Although beltway politicians, the press, and the Obama administration do fear Donald Trump, demonizing him over his stance on Muslims isn't just about knocking him out of the race for the GOP nomination.
Those bringing this about know that they don't have the fifty years European socialists had to boil the frog. This is why Obama has been clandestinely importing Muslims into the U.S., and is intent upon bringing in as many more as possible, as quickly as possible. They're also terrified that Americans – with that pesky affinity for liberty – are already starting to balk at the program. As we know, Donald Trump's more controversial campaign stances merely reflect the sentiments of fed-up Americans.
One may recall our radical affirmative action Attorney General Loretta Lynch having recently floated the notion that the U.S. Justice Department was going to prosecute anyone who advocated violent action against Muslims. That didn't go over so well, and a couple of prominent politicians did just that and dared Lynch to prosecute them.
I don't have to enumerate the horrors Americans will face if we do not politically neuter Islam in America, and soon; all one has to do is look to the chaos currently being visited upon Europe and Scandinavia by Muslims.

'I was mourning a death': Enhle on checking into a mental institution
Enhle Mbali opened up about depression following the 'death of love' In an interview with Dineo Ranaka and Sol Phenduka.
by Nokuthula Ngcobo
Actress and businesswoman Enhle Mbali Mlotshwa has opened up about her mental health issues following her tumultuous marriage to Grammy award-winning musician DJ Black Coffee.
Speaking to Dineo Ranaka and Sol Phenduka on the Kaya 959 Breakfast show on Thursday 18 August, the mom-of-two said she had to check herself into a mental institution a few years ago because she had become numb.
ENHLE MBALI OPENS UP ABOUT HER MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES
The former Isibaya actress shared that she is now in a "really great place" because she had to deal with mental health challenges at an institution.
"I remember before doing Sincerely Yours [her podcast], I found myself having to go to a mental institution," Enhle said.
She further revealed that she felt she had gone beyond depression.
"At this point, I'm not remembering anything. I'm constantly numb. I don't know how I feel. I don't have an opinion. And that to me said something is wrong.
"I was crying every second I could possibly get. I was mourning a death and the death happened a long time ago," Enhle added.
She also explained that she was using death metaphorically, as she was referring to the death of a love.
"I was mourning all the work I had put in, the fight I had put in to make something work and it didn't," Enhle said.

This is not the first time that Enhle has opened up about her journey of healing. In 2021, the Rockville actress's documentary, titled The Voice, depicted the healing journey she went through.
"So the reason I made that documentary is that women are a lot of the time failed by the justice system. I am a believer that a man is meant to protect a woman but our country is in disarray because men have forgotten what the role of a man is and continue to not only harm the women but to harm women and children, who are not the weakest but need protection in society," Enhle told The South African in February 2022.
The documentary followed after her highly publicised divorce from Black Coffee, who is the father of her two boys.
In 2019, it was reported that the couple had split and with allegations of infidelity and abuse at the core of their separation.
Enhle and Black Coffee's divorce has been very rocky as the DJ and producer has been rumoured to have fathered children with other women while the couple was married.

In March 2021, Enhle applied for a protection order against her ex-husband. This came after she had accused the DJ of abusing her at her birthday party in their matrimonial home.
The two ex-lovers have also taken to social media to take jabs at each other, including the time when the We Dance Again DJ went off at his ex-wife about paying R65 000 maintenance and giving her a car after their split.
His rant was fuelled by Enhle's claims that she and the boys had been in the dark for a few days because he had not paid the electricity bill.

Q: Reading Java class documentation from code into a GUI My question today is I have a GUI that interfaces another program. I have a text area within my GUI which I would like to display the class documentation of specific components that the user selects.
Example: User selects the 'Protocol' setting I want it to show the JavaDoc for that 'Protocol'.
How do I go about recognising the correct Javadoc and presenting it within the text area?

A: I would suggest 3 possible approaches:

*

*As part of your build, create Javadoc HTML as normal, and then include it in your deployable, and have your GUI use an embedded browser of some kind (eg. WebKit)

*Study how it's been done by other GUI's, such as from Eclipse's Javadoc View, or using a project which extends Eclipse Javadoc View

*Use a Java source (Javadoc) parsing library / tool, such as QDox
Example code from QDox:
JavaDocBuilder builder = new JavaDocBuilder();
builder.addSource(new FileReader("MyFile.java"));

A:
..Javadoc.. presenting it within the text area?

Don't use a JTextArea, but a JEditorPane.  The latter will render HTML.

A: The JavaDoc is not part of a Java program. So you have to bundle the resources with your program regardless of what approach you use.
So you have two possibilities:

*

*Generate the documentation with javadoc and bundle the result. It is easy to see how to map from a class name to the html page by looking at the generated files. The JavaDoc documentation (the Default doclet's documentation to be more precise) contains more detailed descriptions

*If you want to generate the documentation on-the-fly you have to bundle the source code with your application. Further, your application have to run inside a JDK rather than a plain JRE to get hands on JavaDoc.
See http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/javadoc/standard-doclet.html

Running the Standard Doclet Programmatically
The Javadoc tool has a programmatic interface with public methods for
  invoking the Javadoc tool from another program written in the Java language.
  These methods are located in class com.sun.tools.javadoc.Main in lib/tools.jar. …
public static int execute(String programName, PrintWriter errWriter, PrintWriter warnWriter,
    PrintWriter noticeWriter, String defaultDocletClassName, String[] args)

This execute method is overloaded with variants taking fewer parameters.
