Q: How to get CSV results without getting the column name (reading from jdbc request) in Jmeter How to get CSV results without getting the column name (reading from jdbc request) in Jmeter.
Jdbc request: select query is present it fetches the values to a variable.
-- under this we have JSR223 sampler which prints variable values to CSV file.
Thank u,
Mahadev S

A: *

*Add JSR223 PostProcessor as a child of the JDBC Request sampler

*Put the following code into "Script" area:
def result = vars.getObject('result')
def file = new File('foo.csv')
result.each { subresult ->
    subresult.values().each { value ->
        file << value << ','
    }
    file << System.getProperty('line.separator')
}

*

*replace result with what you have as the "Result variable name" in the JDBC Request sampler

*replace foo.csv with the desired location of the CSV file

*That's it, you will have the JDBC Request sampler output in form of table written to the CSV file. Check out Debugging JDBC Sampler Results in JMeter article for more information on working with JDBC result sets if needed.

Q: get_posts $args won't accept array as one of the criteria? The goal is to list attachments underneath a WooCommerce product, using the tags from that product. Everything works fine if I manually enter the tags at 'product_tag', but when I try to use an array $producttags, why doesn't it work?
add_action( 'woocommerce_after_single_product_summary', 'precon_drawing_attachments' );
function precon_drawing_attachments() {
    $productterms = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'product_tag' );
    $producttags = array();
    foreach ( $productterms as $productterm ) {
        $producttags[] = $productterm->name;
    }
    $args = array(
        'post_mime_type' => 'application/pdf',
        'post_type'      => 'attachment',
        'product_tag'    => array( $producttags ),
        'posts_per_page' => -1,
        'post_status'    => 'any',
        'post_parent'    => null );
    $attachments = get_posts( $args );
    if ( $attachments ) {
        echo '
';
        echo '
';
        foreach ( $attachments as $post ) {
            echo '
';
            echo '';
            echo '';
            echo the_attachment_link( $post->ID, false );
            echo '';
            echo '
';
        }
        echo '

';
    }
}

A: I think your problem is in the 'product_tag' => array( $producttags ),
$producttags is already an array, so in this case it gets nested into a sub array. Change your arg to the following instead:
'product_tag' => $producttags,

Q: Android Volley Requestqueue I am learning the Android with web API. So I am using the Volley. I found the tutorial from
http://www.androidhive.info/2014/09/android-json-parsing-using-volley/
https://developer.android.com/training/volley/index.html
Here I create the one class call as AppController.
package utils;

        import utils.LruBitmapCache;
        import android.app.Application;
        import android.text.TextUtils;

        import com.android.volley.Request;
        import com.android.volley.RequestQueue;
        import com.android.volley.toolbox.ImageLoader;
        import com.android.volley.toolbox.Volley;

public class AppController extends Application {

    public static final String TAG = AppController.class
            .getSimpleName();

    private RequestQueue mRequestQueue;
    private ImageLoader mImageLoader;

    private static AppController mInstance;

    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();
        mInstance = this;
    }

    public static synchronized AppController getInstance() {
        return mInstance;
    }

    public RequestQueue getRequestQueue() {
        if (mRequestQueue == null) {
            mRequestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(getApplicationContext());
        }

        return mRequestQueue;
    }

    public ImageLoader getImageLoader() {
        getRequestQueue();
        if (mImageLoader == null) {
            mImageLoader = new ImageLoader(this.mRequestQueue,
                    new LruBitmapCache());
        }
        return this.mImageLoader;
    }

    public <T> void addToRequestQueue(Request<T> req, String tag) {
        // set the default tag if tag is empty
        req.setTag(TextUtils.isEmpty(tag) ? TAG : tag);
        getRequestQueue().add(req);
    }

    public <T> void addToRequestQueue(Request<T> req) {
        req.setTag(TAG);
        getRequestQueue().add(req);
    }

    public void cancelPendingRequests(Object tag) {
        if (mRequestQueue != null) {
            mRequestQueue.cancelAll(tag);
        }
    }
}

After that my button click event I create the JsonObjectRequest and I called this method.
AppController.getInstance().addToRequestQueue(jsonObjReq, tag_json_obj);

Then it is giving the error

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not execute method for
  android:onClick at
  android.support.v7.app.AppCompatViewInflater$DeclaredOnClickListener.onClick

So I used this method.
Volley.newRequestQueue(this).add(jsonObjReq);

Then it is working. I want to know why first method is not working. (AppController)
Edited
 public void loginClick(View view){

        EditText username = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.userName);
        EditText password = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.password);

        String tag_json_obj = "json_obj_req";

        String url = "http://api.androidhive.info/volley/person_object.json";

        final ProgressDialog pDialog = new ProgressDialog(this);
        pDialog.setMessage("Loading...");
        pDialog.show();

        JsonObjectRequest jsonObjReq = new JsonObjectRequest(Method.GET,
                url, null,
                new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {

                    @Override
                    public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
                        Log.d("RESULT", response.toString());
                        pDialog.hide();
                    }
                }, new Response.ErrorListener() {

            @Override
            public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
                VolleyLog.d("RESULT", "Error: " + error.getMessage());
                // hide the progress dialog
                pDialog.hide();
            }
        });

        Volley.newRequestQueue(this).add(jsonObjReq);

//       AppController.getInstance().addToRequestQueue(jsonObjReq,tag_json_obj);

    }

A: I found the solution. I need to add "android:name="utils.AppController" "line in the AndroidManifest.xml.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
    <application
        android:name="utils.AppController"
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"

Va estudiar la secundària a l'escola secundària afiliada a la Universitat Normal del Nordest. Quan Xu Baihui es va graduar de l'educació secundària, va sol·licitar el Departament de Composició de la Universitat d'Arts de Jilin, però al final va haver de renunciar; també tenia previst estudiar als Estats Units el 2001, però a causa dels atacs de l'11 de setembre, no va poder fer-ho possible, sol·licitant l'ingrès a l'Acadèmia Central d'Art Dramàtic a proposta d'un professor, i va ser admesa el 2002.

L'any 2004, Xu Baihui, que en aquell moment encara estudiava òpera xinesa, es va fer càrrec del rodatge de la sèrie de televisió Little Overseas Students, on fou l'única actriu entre els quatre protagonistes que no tenia experiència d'estudiar a l'estranger.

Fifa gives Oussama Idrissi green light to play for Morocco
by FSL News | Mar 20, 2019 | African News | 0 comments
AZ Alkmaar's winger Oussama Idrissi pledged to play for Morocco in February.
Football's world governing body Fifa has given the 22-year old Oussama Idrissi permission to switch international allegiance from the Netherlands to Morocco.
The former Dutch youth international, who plays for AZ Alkmaar, had confirmed his choice to represent Morocco instead of the Netherlands last month.
The Royal Morocco Football Federation (FRMF) confirmed that the players have been given approval for the move earlier this week.
FRMF received a letter from Fifa stating Idrissi is qualified to play for the Atlas Lions.
In an interview with Volkskrant, Idrissi noted that playing for Morocco "was a rational choice."
"I am a footballer who had to make a choice. I have discussed with my parents what is best for my career," he added.
"I was born and raised here [in the Netherlands] with the standards and values of this beautiful country. I am a footballer and, I had to make the decision with my parents. I wanted to make the most of myself," he said.
The winger was born in the Netherlands but still eligible for Morocco through his parents. He has played for the Netherlands at various youth levels,

M&A deals in the technology sector have been popular for some time. With "sector within a sector" focuses in areas such as fintech, biotech and lawtech, advancements made in artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, the Internet of Things (IoT) and the application of those innovations, there are no signs of this slowing down. Buyers and investors are highly motivated to continue on their quest to find talented individuals, teams and quality products required to put them at the forefront of emerging technology. Coffin Mew shares some of the current themes and related trends it's seeing crop up within the corporate deals arena. Hayley Bevis, partner and head of corporate at Coffin Mew, takes a look at some of the areas of focus across the sector.
A major theme over the past year has been the large increase in deals involving overseas companies making direct investments into the UK. While you could say that such interest in UK tech business is attributable to the imminent arrival of Brexit and a weakened pound, there is a definite recognition of the vast talent pool of tech expertise in the UK. Deals in the sector often involve the retention of the selling shareholders and key personnel post-completion, suggesting a recognition of the added value and skills that individuals continue to bring to such businesses.
Tech companies continue to look for alternative ways to incentivise performance and to aid the retention of key employees. Share option schemes such as Enterprise Management Incentives (EMI) and Company Share Option Plans (CSOP), remain a popular choice. There is also a noticeable increase in businesses offering flexible working hours and a concerted effort to take stock of a corporate's Employee Value Proposition (EVP) more generally.
These four letters have quickly become a key part of all transactions over recent months and it would be remiss not to mention them. In the beginning, buyers and investors were keen to know what steps had been taken to deal with the imminent arrival of the Data Protection Act 2018 and the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR). Now that it is in force, and given the significant implications, both financially and reputationally, of a breach, we can only expect to see an increased focus here.
In the vast majority of tech deals, there is nothing more important than how the target company's intellectual property is owned. This includes aspects such as the ownership of logos, trademarks, patents and names but, especially in tech, the ownership and creation of source code as well.
It is important to strike a balance between providing comfort to a buyer or investor on the unique nature of any intellectual property and not handing over the "secret ingredient" before the deal has reached a conclusion. Often in these circumstances, commercial due diligence is key and can involve a number of additional parties to a transaction, such as third-party specialists who can provide secure and independent reviews of intellectual property, such as source code. This gives the buyer or investor an element of reassurance that everything is as they expect it to be.
Tech is at the heart of innovation but it is not uncommon to find clients that don't realise that they could be eligible for certain tax reliefs, such as research and development (R&D) tax relief. Where companies are making an advance in science and technology, even as part of a bespoke project, opportunities to take advantage of these generous reliefs are often missed. We regularly refer clients to tax experts in this field, as it can make all the difference.
Social media is becoming an ever more important tool for businesses to market and sell, which means that buyers and investors are increasingly interested about how a corporate and its employees operate their social media platforms as part of an overall online presence. It is important that those at the top have a grasp on how social media is being used and that there is a clear policy in place as to what is and isn't allowed. Lacking clarity can lead to unexpected crisis management and significant reputational damage in a very short period of time and can be a costly price to pay.

China possesses many traditional holidays, of which Spring Festival is the most important and the most exciting. An extended celebration of the Lunar New Year that lasts for several weeks, Spring Festival encompasses the Laba Festival, Little New Year, Lunar New Year's Eve, Lunar New Year's Day, and the Lantern Festival. Every year, with the coming of the last month of the lunar year, the holiday spirit fills the land. The Laba Festival, which falls on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, marks the official start of Spring Festival.
This holiday may be traced back to the ancient Chinese custom of sacrificing game to the ancestors during the last month of the lunar year. Following the ritual, the participants feasted together on the sacrificial meat in an early expression of the Chinese tradition of communal eating. The Laba Festival is popularly referred to as Laji Festival (End-of-Year Sacrifice Festival), another indication of its ancient origins and association with early sacrificial rituals. It is also said that Sakyamuni Buddha attained enlightenment on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. As a result, with the introduction of Buddhism to China, the Laba Festival also became known as the Day of Enlightenment.
Eating porridge on the Laba Festival is a very old tradition. As Buddhism became integrated into Chinese society, "Laba porridge" became known as "Buddha porridge," in commemoration of the date of Buddha's enlightenment. Legend has it that after Sakyamuni left secular life to become a monk, he meditated so deeply that he often forgot to eat. Once, when he was close to dying of starvation, he encountered a woman tending her flock. The woman saved his life by feeding him rice porridge with milk, enabling him to continue meditating and attain enlightenment on the day of Laba Festival. In order to commemorate this incident, every year at the Laba Festival Buddhists eat Laba porridge, also known as Buddha porridge. Many versions of the legends concerning the origins of Laba Festival exist in different regions of China.
The two most important traditions associated with Laba Festival are eating Laba porridge, and praying for peace and good health in the coming year.
Virtually every household in China eats Laba porridge on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. Filled with nuts and dried fruit, today's Laba porridge is both tastier and more appealing to the eye than the "Buddha porridge" of the past. Today, Laba porridge serves as a symbol of good fortune, long life, and fruitful harvest.
The custom of eating Laba porridge is not only an expression of respect for Buddha and the ancestral spirits. Laba porridge is also a very nourishing and healthful food. In his encyclopedic classic of herbal medicine Bencao Gangmu (Compendium of Materia Medica), eminent Ming Dynasty physician Li Shizhen states that rice porridge "increases the life force, produces saliva, nourishes the spleen and stomach, and resolves sweating due to weak constitution or health."
Eating Laba porridge is a distinctive and popular tradition of the Laba Festival. Buddhist tradition equates porridge with good fortune. Friends, family, and neighbors customarily exchange gifts of Laba porridge to express good wishes. In the past, devout Buddhists presented gifts of Laba porridge to the emperor and local officials. It can be seen that Laba porridge was a favorite holiday gift not only among the rulers and bureaucracy of feudal China, but also in every strata of society.
Laba Festival falls during the depths of winter, which made it an ideal season for storing food. The harvest is in, and people can turn their attention to preparing and enjoying a wide array of delicious dishes. In addition to Laba porridge, many different types of pickled vegetables and special dishes are popular during Laba Festival, including garlic pickled in vinegar and pickled Chinese cabbage. In northern Shaanxi Province, it is obligatory to eat Laba noodle soup, made with eight different shredded ingredients. In the Tongguan-Lintong region of Shaanxi Province, Laba noodle soup is made with hot chili peppers. Hot Laba wine is popular all over China during Laba Festival.

Then the user can change the dropped objects' attributes, such as font style , color , resize its size and change border colors. Is there any JQuery plug in that similiar to what i'm doing ? Thanks

A: I did a similar project, with drag and drop and also resize. You just need jquery UI, you can use the function inside: draggable, droppable and resizeable. It works well for me :)

It feels absolutely amazing to reach our goals, especially when it comes to weight loss. Whether you have watched your diet and exercised or you have had bariatric surgery, you have accomplished an incredible feat and are on your way to a new and healthier YOU! First, we want to say congratulations! Second, we want to give you some information about a possible next step in your body transformation.
After extreme weight loss, you may notice that your skin does not want to cooperate with the rest of your body. It is still saggy, limp and unattractive. This can cause a little bit of ire and a whole lot of exasperation as you look in the mirror! Your clothes are still not fitting the way you want them to and there is no way you are going to hit the beach in a bikini. This can lead to some serious doubt about all your hard work and struggles that have led you to this point. Was it worth it? The answer is YES! A full body contour can take away those stubborn rolls of excess skin and tissue, leaving behind the body that you have worked so diligently for.
So what exactly is full body contouring?
Start by creating a firmer and shapelier face and neck, removing the double chin or "turkey neck" and smoothing out the droopy look that gives you the appearance of a permanent frown.
Next in line will be the enhancement of your breasts. While breast implants are a popular option, they are not part of the full body contour. During the contouring process, we will lift the breasts, returning them to an upright location so they will look youthful and perky.
The next area to be addressed will be the arms. An arm lift will remove the "wing" that hangs down from underneath your arms.
Other areas that will be addressed include your abdomen, buttocks, thighs and groin. The surgeon will discuss your options such as abdominoplasty, thigh lift and liposuction so you can make an informed choice about which procedures will be right for you.
The end result of full body contouring is the achievement of an all-over toned, well-formed and attractive body.
This is a big question and a true and honest answer is crucial. If you are still having trouble keeping your weight off, still binge eating Oreos and ice cream in the middle of the night or still losing weight quickly after your surgery, it may not be the right time for you to get this type of surgery. Full body contouring works best for those who are able to maintain their weight for at least 6 months, who are eating healthy and have a regular exercise routine that they follow. You may have to wait up to 18 months after bariatric surgery before your weight begins to stabilize, so if you have not reached that mark, you will want to consult with your doctor to see if the procedure is appropriate for you at this point in your weight loss journey.
Another serious factor that will determine if you are ready to go ahead with surgery and will significantly impact the success of your results is your mental clarity. Do you have clear expectations? Are you comfortable with life-long scars? Are you ready to face a few weeks of pain and discomfort? These are all parts of the body contouring procedure, so you must have a strong resolve and determination during your recovery period.
Will you have just one surgery?
You and your plastic surgeon will thoroughly discuss an action plan that is tailored specifically to your needs and wants. Sometimes certain surgeries can be performed at the same time, while others may need to be spaced out so you can have time to heal before the next step is administered. It is vital that you take great care of yourself during your full body contouring procedures, making sure that you follow the aftercare procedures and sticking to the plan that was developed at the beginning. The outcome of each procedure will directly impact the following procedures so a continued recovery mindset is needed from the first surgery that you undergo until the very last one is completed.
Be sure to mention your goals, ask questions about risk and recovery and get as much information as possible during your initial consultation so you will be prepared for your whole body transformation. It is truly life changing and hey, you deserve it! Contact our office today if you are ready for a new body and a new lease on life!

Best Dog Walkers in Irvington Creekside of Tonawanda, NY | Wag!
The Irvington Creekside neighborhood is located within the town of Tonawanda, New York, just north of Buffalo. This small, quiet area is bordered by a busy thoroughfare, Niagara Falls Boulevard, and the less hectic streets of Creekside and Irvington. The winding suburban roads within this section are highly walkable with safe streets and sidewalks that are easy to navigate. Within and just outside the neighborhood are two parks that are perfect locations to walk a dog.
In western New York, weather can be variable depending on the season. Springs can be cold and rainy, while summers are often hot and humid. Fall is the most comfortable and beautiful time of year. Because of Tonawanda's proximity to Lake Erie, winters are prone to bouts of lake-effect snowfall, snowstorms, and bitterly cold temperatures. Walking in the winter requires appropriate wear for both the walker and dog including boots, coats, hats, and gloves.
In the Irvington Creekside area, the terrain is mostly flat with minor elevations in some sections, making it ideal for walkers and their pups who are just starting out with higher intensity exercise while also lacking any challenging areas that may lead to strain or injury in elderly dogs. There are areas within this neighborhood for all experience levels. The terrain is well balanced in terms of both urban and natural environments, so you'll likely find something to appeal to your preference.
The neighborhood is populated with older colonial homes amongst landscaped yards. Sidewalks are plentiful and the established trees provide enough shade to make this an excellent area to walk a dog on a warm, sunny day without having to worry too much about the heat. Irvington Creekside is well-plowed and salted during the wintertime, making it a safer area to walk during this season and preventing any hazardous, slippery areas.
There are two parks within and near to the Irvington Creekside neighborhood that are great locations to walk a dog. First is the park alongside Irvington Creekside called Ellicott Creek Park. This sprawling park has plenty of space to walk your pup, both on the designated biking and walking paths and across the vast green spaces. This park includes shelters, restrooms, seating areas, and access to the creek itself. Dogs must be kept on a leash in this area.
The other option, The Bark Park at Elliott Island, is just outside of the Irvington Creekside boundary but within five minutes driving distance. This 25-acre island is a dog park surrounded by water that dogs can swim in and complete with waste bags, seating areas, shelters, grills, and restrooms. Be aware that there are no fenced areas in this park as it is an island, which means that there are no separate spaces for large and small dog breeds.

Simply perfect! I can't imagine how can a better course on Libgdx look!
Very detailed course with clear instructions and explanations. When I started on the second project "SimpleSnakeGame", I really felt like I understood everything that was going on. I'm currently working on the "CircleJumperGame" were we are introduced to game animations!
It is very educative class about libgdx game development.
The course was a great way to become familiar with Java and have fun with the LibGDX game engine. The initial part of the course was a struggle because at the time there were issues with Gradle version control. At times, starting a project took a long time to get started because of errors in Gradle. That said, version control is part of the issues programmers have to deal with so overall the class was a nice class. Towards the end of the course the version issues seemed to have been resolved.
The instructor has very good guidances for programming with code examples.


The above vintage photo features Doug's touring "World of Magic" stage show at the, you guessed correctly, "Pantages" theater in Hollywood, CA. However, what specific year this is is a mystery to me. Doug played there a couple times in the early 1980s in a "Best Of" show which highlighted his most famous illusions up to that point.
It's interesting to note that the marquee of the Pantages has changed very little in the forty or so years since this picture was taken. Though unfortunately you can't really say that for the neighborhood surrounding it.

Become Aware of Your Internal Conversations!
Guess who's the number one person you communicate with on a daily basis? It's you!
Our internal conversations characterize how we view the world and influence every part of our lives- relationships, achievements, attitude and ultimately our degree of happiness.
If this internal dialogue focuses on your faults, mistakes, weaknesses, insecurities, fears or other negative things, it will be virtually impossible to feel good about yourself and advance your life forward.
Furthermore negative thinking can have a detrimental effect on your health and overall quality of life.
If on the other hand your self-talk concentrates on your strengths, blessings, successes, opportunities and other positive thoughts, you will feel great about yourself.
You'll enhance your ability to overcome obstacles and as a whole your life will become more enjoyable and fulfilling.
The great news is that you can control what you think about and you can replace any negative thought with a more positive and productive affirmation.
Like anything else, it takes time and practice and it will get easier over time.

Samsung Galaxy A51 review: A mid-range phone that doesn't justify its price
Samsung's Galaxy A series represents a vast portion of the market spectrum, ranging from the lower end of the mid-range to somewhat premium experiences. The Galaxy A51, first announced last December, sits squarely in the middle of that spectrum, and it already includes some elements we've gotten used to seeing in flagship smartphones.
There are four cameras on the back, a setup that, at first glance, might appear similar to the new Galaxy S20 flagships, plus a punch-hole cutout on the display for the front-facing camera. That display is also a pretty big one, and it's using Samsung's Super AMOLED panel. It's running on Samsung's own Exynos 9611 chipset, with four Cortex-A73 cores and four Cortex-A53 cores.

The Samsung Galaxy A51 is a fairly standard-looking smartphone, but I did make a couple of mistakes in my initial hands-on video when I assumed the frame of the phone is metal and the back is glass. In fact, they're both plastic. My initial assumption doesn't so much come from the fact that the materials feel premium, but more so the fact that I didn't expect it to not be made of glass and metal at this price point. Of course, you might prefer plastic, so whether this is a downside or not is really up to you. I was a little disappointed when I realized it, though.
Regardless of that, though, I do still think the Galaxy A51 is a beautiful phone. That's in large part thanks to the color I got sent, which is a gorgeous light blue on both the back plate and the frame. It also has this prism pattern on the back, and though it's a little subtle, it definitely helps the phone stand out a bit more. The back also houses the rectangular module with all four cameras and the LED flash. It's a style you may need to get used to, but I don't dislike it.
Going around the edges of the phone, the top and left sides are both pretty boring. There's a microphone at the top and a SIM card slot on the left.
On the right side, there's the volume rocker and the power button, which can also be used to summon Bixby. Thankfully, the Bixby functionality can be disabled altogether, so you can just use it as a power button.
The bottom edge houses the USB Type-C port that's used for charging, a 3.5mm headphone jack that's increasingly rare, and a bottom-firing speaker, which is, by the way, the only speaker on this phone.
Finally, there's the 6.5-inch display up front, with a centered punch-hole cutout housing the front-facing camera, which also sits flush with the display. At the top, there's the earpiece, which isn't amplified for stereo sound.
Display and sound
As I mentioned above, the display on the Galaxy A51 is 6.5 inches diagonally, and it's using Samsung's Super AMOLED panels. It's also a Full HD+ display, with a 2400 by 1080 resolution, and that 20:9 aspect ratio kinda makes the screen appear bigger than it actually is, which I like. The punch-hole cutout has also become my favorite approach to incorporate front-facing cameras, at least until they can be hidden behind the screen somehow.
It's also just a beautiful display, and it's probably the best thing about this phone. The colors are bright and vivid, the screen is clear, it's big, and it gets more than bright enough for any use case I have had for it. It's really hard to complain about it. it gets even better when the glass covering the screen is so smooth, and gliding my fingers across this screen just feels great.
I always have some issues with AMOLED displays, where in very low-light environments and with low screen brightness, there's some uneven colors towards the edges of the display. I've seen it so often and on so many phones that I'm willing to accept I'm just imagining it, but I also wouldn't feel right if I didn't at least mention it.
As for sound, there's only a single speaker on the bottom side of the phone's frame, so not only are you not getting stereo sound, it's also really easy to cover the speaker. When it's not covered, it can actually get pretty loud, but once you cover the speaker, it gets very quiet, very quickly. It doesn't seem to have enough power to handle being blocked at all, so if you're holding the phone horizontally, you're definitely going to be missing out.
Another thing worth mentioning is that the microphone on this phone isn't great, with Skype calls apparently sounding much worse compared to my usual daily driver, the OPPO Reno Z.
My biggest disappointments with the Galaxy A51 started with the camera setup. A quad-camera setup seems to indicate that a lot of work was put into their performance, but right off the bat, one of the cameras is a depth sensor – which I really don't care for – and another is a 5MP macro lens – a feature that we've seen built into the ultra-wide lens on many other phones. I don't have anything against these dedicated cameras, I just feel like if a company is putting that many sensors on a phone, they should have a clearer, more significant purpose. A telephoto lens would have been nice, for example.
This wouldn't be such a big problem, though, if the cameras that you do use were really good, but I came away somewhat unimpressed. The camera tends to deliver saturated colors, and usually, I'm a fan of that look, but that's just because I like the shots to be close to real life. This camera tends to produce colors that are significantly more saturated than what your eyes see, and it feels very unrealistic.
Another issue I've had with the camera is that shots tend to appear sharp when you look at them without zooming in, but they very quickly start looking noisy around the edges of objects as soon as you zoom in. This situation seems to have been somewhat improved with a software update I got during the review, but it can still show up, especially if you're dealing with poorly shaven facial hair.

Things don't change much with the ultra-wide-angle camera, and I still appreciate the versatility it provides. Colors are slightly different from the main camera, but not too much, as we can see in the last few samples above. The front-facing camera is also pretty decent, though it can suffer from the same issue with sharpness.
One thing that's also frustrating about this camera is that the night mode just isn't very good. In some shots, sure, it helps, but in others, I've sometimes had trouble remembering which pictures were taken with night mode on or off. Even when it does help, it's not much. In the samples below, the first picture of each pair has night mode off, the second has it on.

Video from this phone can look pretty sharp, too, but the colors can once again be a problem. I initially tried recording my hands-on with the OPPO Find X2 Pro with this camera, but it highlighted the color of my desk too much and made the phone's box look too dark, so I just gave up and used my regular phone.
In general, I was pretty disappointed with this camera, even if it's not exactly terrible. It's just that I've seen cameras perform better on cheaper phones.
Performance, battery life
Performance is another area where the Samsung Galaxy A51 let me down significantly. It comes with Samsung's in-house Exynos 9611 chipset, and that had four Cortex-A73 cores for tasks that require more performance and four Cortex-A53 cores for things that can be more power-efficient. I think it's interesting that these aren't Cortex-A75 and A55, which is what we see in other modern chipsets like Qualcomm's Snapdragon 675.
I don't know exactly if that's the reason why performance is so disappointing, but the fact is that it is. It's little things you might not always notice, but it adds up. The phone takes a little longer to boot than I expect it to. When you get a call, it can take a bit of time between the time when your phone starts ringing and the time you actually see a notification, especially if you're doing something relatively intensive like watching a YouTube video. And getting Skype calls with multiple devices is almost comical – I'll sometimes answer the call on my PC, and only after that will my phone ring, while I'm on the call. And it won't stop until I accept the call (that I'm already on using my PC) on my phone.
Oh, and using Bluetooth on this phone has easily been the worst experience I've had with Bluetooth audio on any phone. Audio cuts out for more than a second at a time, and it does it more frequently than most phones I've used, too.
This poor performance is backed up by benchmarks, with AnTuTu Benchmark scoring it at 182,873, well below the 217,174 score of the TCL Plex I reviewed at the end of last year – and that's a significantly cheaper phone. It's actually much closer to the OPPO Reno Z I reviewed in the summer, but keep in mind that sometime between that review and this one, AnTuTu changed the scoring system and phones now score higher than they used to.
I also ran benchmarks using GeekBench 5 and GFXbench. GeekBench tests the CPU performance:
GFXBench tests the GPU:
Battery life, at least, has been good. With the exception of a longer day where I spent a few hours watching YouTube videos on the train, I've never had the phone last less than one day, though it's not easy to make it to two days, either. I'm usually alright with charging overnight, though I would appreciate the extra confidence of knowing it will last me two days if I need it to. This has been with pretty light usage, though, revolving mostly around texting with Telegram, watching YouTube occasionally, and browsing Twitter's PWA.
In terms of software, the Galaxy A51 comes with Android 10 and Samsung's One UI 2.0 running on top of it. An update during the review period also brought the security patch version to the February 2020 release, so it's not too far behind. I think it's worth mentioning that Samsung packs a lot of features into its Android skin, ranging from useful to questionable.
On the useful side, Samsung's Link to Windows integration is pretty great, and it's certainly the best use I've had for the Your Phone app on Windows 10. The ability to mirror my screen to the computer is pretty useful, especially because it actually allows me to use my phone without touching it, even when the phone is locked. I've mostly found myself using this to access the Google Assistant voice commands, which the phone can still pick up if it's in my pocket or across the room.
The ability to open apps in pop-up windows – that can be collapsed into bubbles when not in use – is also pretty great, and you can resize the windows and even adjust the pop-up transparency. I've found that apps can sometimes forget how to scale their text for the window size, but in general, I really like it. There are other things you might appreciate about OneUI, like the ability to set themes, not only for your launcher but also for many aspects of the UI, including the system apps like Phone and Messages. Being able to do this without rooting your device is pretty cool.
On the questionable side, Edge lighting seems like a feature designed for phones with curved edges, but it's been kept around for some reason. It lights up your screen with a pattern of your choice when you get a notification and the phone is locked, but I don't see a practical benefit for this over other notifications that wake the screen. It's especially annoying because one of the gestures you can use – swiping down from the notification top open the app in a pop-up window – doesn't work when the phone is locked. It just makes the notification disappear, and then you have to manually unlock the phone to find the pop-up window waiting for you.
The Samsung Galaxy A51 isn't necessarily a bad phone, but it's a phone that I feel does very little to justify the €369 (€399 in Portugal) price tag that it commands. In my (admittedly short) experience with reviewing phones, I've never been so thoroughly disappointed with so many aspects of a phone.
The camera setup wasn't nearly as good as I had hoped and the performance was extremely disappointing, too. The build quality leaves something to be desired when so many phones in this price range are using metal and glass, and some phones, like the OPPO Reno Z, also have stereo speakers at this price.
There are certainly positives to this phone, like some of the software features of OneUI and the display, but I only have to go a few months back to my review of the TCL Plex to find a reason not to buy the Galaxy A51. At just €329, the TCL Plex still has a great display (though it is IPS LCD), much better performance, a more interesting design (with glass and metal), and a camera setup that, while flawed, at least feels more intentional, with the dedicated low-light video camera have a clear purpose and doing its job fairly well. Not to mention, it didn't give me any issues with Bluetooth audio. I would undoubtedly spend my money on that instead.

(INDIANAPOLIS) – A new report commissioned by the Indiana Chamber of Commerce Foundation finds that school counselors are not able to meet the range of postsecondary needs of students, due in large part to a stagnant system and a variety of situations often out of their control.
"What we have is a counseling issue, not an issue with the counselors," explains Indiana Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Kevin Brinegar. "In fact, the vast majority of counselors in the survey said they would like to spend more time providing college and career guidance."
The Indiana School Counseling Research Review was conducted for the Indiana Chamber Foundation to assess the current state of school counseling and to see whether the landscape had changed much the last two decades. A 1994 statewide study titled High Hopes Long Odds had identified disparities in the way counselors provided college and career readiness to students.
"Unfortunately, little has progressed in 20 years," Brinegar offers. "This is such a vital tool for middle and high school students, but far too little time is being spent with students on college and career readiness despite the obvious need."
What prompted the Indiana Chamber to seek the research is the organization's Indiana Vision 2025 economic development plan (www.indianachamber.com/2025), which features a focus on Outstanding Talent. Brinegar emphasizes, "One goal in the plan is to increase to 90% the proportion of Hoosier students who graduate from high school ready for college and/or career training; therefore improving the counseling aspect is critical."
A total of 426 Indiana school counselors – 73% of them from high schools – were surveyed for the Indiana School Counseling Research Review.
According to the survey, 58% of respondents said that a quarter or less of their time is spent on college and career readiness activities; that number jumps to 90% of counselors when the timeframe for college/career readiness duties is placed at 50% or less. Fewer than 10% of counselors said they spent more than half their time in this key role.
The time disparity has noticeably increased in recent years. Derek Redelman, Indiana Chamber vice president of education and workforce development, notes that has much to do with "the real lack of clarity about school counselors' roles and responsibilities that exists in many schools, with 'tending duties' pulling counselors in too many directions."
"These other activities might include being the hall monitor, administering tests or even managing the school mascot," Redelman states. "The bottom line is that a school counselor's job duties include a growing catch-all list of non-related activities that takes them from their primary function. And that needs to be addressed. … Being unable to more frequently do their essential job is the number one thing we heard about from counselors."
Another factor at play, the report concludes, is that counselor education programs are not providing sufficient preparation in college and career counseling.
"This means counselors don't have all the information. This and the time factor speak to the larger issue of getting the needed information to students," Redelman begins. "The report suggests a delivery model that would expand what professionals within a building share postsecondary information with students. We're advocating for a more team approach to help bridge the gap."
"As policymakers, we are increasingly focused on the need for students to be college and career ready," says Teresa Lubbers, Indiana Commissioner for Higher Education. "The problem is that too many students and families still don't know what that means. This report highlights the need to redesign the counseling model, freeing counselors to focus more on readiness responsibilities rather than administrative tasks."
The Indiana Chamber took the additional step of forming an advisory group to provide feedback on what efforts – programs and policies – could make the strongest impact. The advisory group included school counselors, principals, superintendents, community college partners, youth-serving organizations and government agencies.
"This group of advisors was asked to consider a range of initiatives that would have the most positive effect on student achievement, postsecondary attainment and career readiness through counseling services," Redelman offers.
Continue to raise awareness. Consider developing a marketing campaign to expand the postsecondary opportunities made available for consideration by students.
Recognize successful programs and initiatives. Accomplished by exploring metrics and potential partners to recognize schools and/or counseling programs that have demonstrated success. Then use recognition to highlight a broad range of postsecondary success opportunities for students.
Communicate employer needs. Explore opportunities for organized employer tours for students and educators to foster deeper understanding of career opportunities. Also collaborate with partners to improve access to web-based information, including IndianaSkills.com.
Assist with data accessibility. Champion the continued development of the public user interface for Indiana's longitudinal data system, which will make it possible for policy leaders to identify the greatest training and educational needs, and to evaluate progress in meeting those needs.
Create the right accountability incentives. Continue to work on school accountability task force.
Adds advisory group member Karin Ulerick, a counselor at Logansport High School: "Many of the topics we reviewed are ways to help counselors and students succeed. I appreciate the Indiana Chamber's efforts surrounding how to support the work we (counselors) do each day and look forward to them getting the ball rolling on actual implementation of the initiatives."
The Indiana School Counseling Research Review, which also includes comments from 11 personal interviews with key counseling leaders in the state, was produced by Matt Fleck of Fleck Education and the Partnership for College and Career Readiness.

Q. What is Hook64 exactly?
A. Hook64 is a program that was originally made for my personal use as well as friends for the games I actively played. I decided to publicly release it with a monthly fee for some games so other people could benefit from it as well if they wanted to. Hook64 will not always be available for every game I add... eventually support for games will be removed if I feel like it would be unrealistic to keep it up to date for said game.
Please don't buy a subscription unless you understand that you are entitled to nothing other than the base functionality of Hook64 itself.
Q. How do I subscribe for Gamemodi Plus/Hook64?
A. Go here to make an account: Register
After making an account and confirming your email, go here and buy credits: Manage Account
After you buy credits, click the Buy Options button to add time to your subscription.
Q. How do I use Hook64 on multiple computers?
A. The base subscription for Hook64 comes with 1 key instance allowing you to use Hook64 on one PC at a time, while a Lifetime subscription also comes with one extra letting you use 2 PCs at a time.
You can buy up to five extra key instances from the manage account page here after logging in.
Each key instance is a one-time fee of $15.
Q. Are credits a one time purchase, or does it charge me every month?
A. Credit purchases are a one time transaction.
Q. What is Lifetime? (Lifetime subscriptions are no longer available.)
A. Lifetime is a subscription option that will give you access to anything I create for as long as I'm able to, without the need to pay the monthly fee.
I will also give certain benefits to Lifetime members such as special exploits in games, or implementing a specific feature they want.. however, these are not guaranteed and you shouldn't buy Lifetime expecting to receive anything special other than the Lifetime membership itself.
Q. Can I get a refund on my credits and/or subscription?
A. The only time you're eligible for a refund is if you accidentally send multiple payments for one transaction, otherwise all purchases are non-refundable and any charge-backs or Paypal disputes will be treated as fraud and handled accordingly. All charge-backs and non-erroneous refunds will result in your computer being permanently banned from future Gamemodi/Hook64 usage.
Q. Will paying for a subscription guarantee that I'll always have access to every feature that was listed when I bought the subscription?
A. Unfortunately, no. I can't control what other developers do to their games/services, so when you buy a subscription please keep in mind that features may change at any time.
Q. Can I be banned in a game by using the cheats in Hook64?
A. Yes, you can... however, I do my best to make Hook64 itself undetectable and warn users if a hack is risky. You take full responsibility for your own actions and understand that being banned is a possibility while using cheats.
Q. I haven't received my credits yet, what do I do?
A. If its been over one hour and you haven't received your credits yet then please click here to email support, click here to send Sorien a PM via the forums, or contact Sorien on Telegram here.

The Heikkila Chemistry and Advanced Materials Science (HCAMS) building is open for use by students and staff. While the official opening ceremony is to be this summer, staff has begun moving over and the student study spaces are open. Instructional lab classes will be held in the space next semester (Fall 2019). Also this fall will be the beginning of a new graduate program at UMD- a master's in Advanced Material Science.
The nearly $30 million building will be a vast upgrade compared to the old UMD chemistry building built in the late 1940s. The upgrades are coming in the form of many laboratories and study lounges. No formal classrooms fit the plan of the HCAMS building.
He continued that the space will hold five to six lab classes this fall and be home to a dozen research laboratories. A few of these are set up and ready for use now but the rest will be moved in over the rest of this spring and early summer.
Given the large quantity of labs, HCAMS will become home to a new master's degree program. HCAMS will house the Advanced Materials Science offices. According to Berry the master's program will assist chemistry majors in learning engineering and engineers in learning chemistry.
The Advanced Materials Science program will open this fall at UMD with the aim to bring together the programs into an industrial setting.
Another part of the HCAMS building that Berry and other faculty are excited about are the student study lounges. There are two lounges on each floor that are full of windows and natural light. These are currently open and available for students to use.
HCAMS official opening will happen this August and lab classes will be held this fall. To stay up to date on more HCAMS news see the link below.

"Backstreets" is a song by Bruce Springsteen from the album Born to Run, which was released in 1975.  In the original vinyl release, it concludes side one of the record.

Structure
"Backstreets" begins with a minute-long instrumental introduction that features pianist Roy Bittan playing both piano and organ, with only occasional traces of any other instruments being heard.  In his review of Born to Run for Rolling Stone, writer Greil Marcus said:
"Backstreets" ... begins with music so stately, so heartbreaking, that it might be the prelude to a rock & roll version of The Iliad.

"Backstreets" has also been interpreted as a narrative about a homosexual relationship because the name Terry is sexually ambiguous.  It has also been said to potentially represent a platonic but intense friendship between two men that has faded.  However, listening to any of the numerous bootleg versions of "Backstreets" from the 1978 Darkness Tour, Terry is repeatedly referred to as "she" and "little girl," indicating that Terry is indeed a woman.  Another interpretation is that it is about Springsteen's relationship with his early 1970s girlfriend, Diane Lozito. In his autobiography, Born to Run, Springsteen states that "Backstreets" is about a broken friendship.

The melody and organ bear some resemblance to "Positively 4th Street" by Bob Dylan, an influence of Springsteen's. Rolling Stone claims that it echoes mid-1960s Dylan, especially the organ part reminiscent of Blonde on Blonde.

Personnel
According to authors Philippe Margotin and Jean-Michel Guesdon:

 Bruce Springsteen – vocals, guitar
 Garry Tallent – bass
 Max Weinberg – drums
 Roy Bittan – piano, organ

Live performance history and interlude
Starting in 1977 and most prominently during the 1978 Darkness Tour, Springsteen often added a semi-improvised interlude in between the final chorus and the outro. It usually involved Springsteen's singing solo accompanied by the piano. The other instruments then joined in as the interlude built to a climax. It elaborated on the story of the protagonist and Terry. It differed from performance to performance but frequently involved the protagonist's reminiscing about a good time he and Terry had shared, followed by an emotional condemnation of her subsequent betrayal.

This interlude has become known to Springsteen fans as the "Sad Eyes" interlude (not to be confused with the Springsteen song of the same name) due to frequently occurring lyrics stating that Terry had sad eyes or should dry her tears. It also has been referred to as the "Baby I remember you" or "Little girl don't cry" interlude. Parts of the interlude later materialized in recast form as the song "Drive All Night" on The River album in 1980. The interlude version of "Backstreets" has not been performed in full since; however, it can be heard on numerous fan bootlegs from that tour and Springsteen occasionally sings a very small part of the original interlude in contemporary live versions.

In 2007, during Springsteen and the E Street Band's Magic Tour, "Backstreets" frequently found its way into the set list, most likely as a tribute to Springsteen's longtime friend Terry Magovern, who died earlier that year. On April 22, 2008, it was the opening song of the first show following the death of longtime band member Danny Federici.

Critical reception
Rolling Stone rated "Backstreets" to be the sixth greatest Springsteen song of all time.

Cultural references
The Irish folk/rock band Stockton's Wing took its name from the line "Slow dancin' in the dark on the beach at Stockton's Wing...
