A year ago, the election of Donald Trump sent shock waves through a United Nations conference in Marrakesh, Morocco, where delegates from more than 190 countries had gathered to push forward with a landmark climate accord signed in Paris the previous year.
The deal suddenly seemed in jeopardy. If the United States backed out, as Trump promised, would other countries soon follow? A year later, Trump has moved to withdraw from the international agreement. But other nations have held firm to their pledges to slash their greenhouse gas emissions.
As delegates gather Monday in Bonn, Germany, for this year's annual international climate talks, the United States finds itself largely on the sidelines. And the rest of the world seems to be reacting to the Trump administration with a collective shrug.
"There was speculation that the U.S. withdrawal might create some kind of domino effect, but in reality, this never happened," said Anna-Kaisa Itkonen, a European Union spokeswoman for energy and climate action. "There hasn't been a single party who announced they were leaving. Quite the contrary."
Even Nicaragua, which initially refused to join the Paris agreement because it didn't think the accord did enough to combat global climate change, recently announced its intention to sign on. That leaves only the United States and Syria at odds with the rest of the world.
In Bonn, a collection of U.S. governors, mayors, business leaders and philanthropic figures will try to step into the gap. They include former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg and Washington state Gov. Jay Inslee (D), Oregon Gov. Kate Brown (D) and California Gov. Jerry Brown (D).
"With Washington off to the side, California is going to assert itself because it has the experience, and we have the commitment. And we want to join with others," Jerry Brown said in an interview. "So, we will play an important role as cheerleader in chief and also as collaborator."
Still, he said that states, localities and companies can push the nation only so far toward meeting the goals of the Paris agreement and making a shift toward cleaner energy sources.
"We can fill maybe half the void," said Brown, who was recently named a special adviser for states and regions to the Bonn conference. "We can do a lot, and we can carry the ball while Trump goes off in another direction. But soon, we need the national government."
U.S. officials will not be entirely absent from the gathering in Bonn. The United States remains a party to the Paris accord simply because it takes four years to formally withdraw.
"The U.S. is sending a State Department-led delegation with a career diplomat in charge, and that seems to send a signal that they're not going to Bonn to throw bombs or anything," said Sue Biniaz, who was a lead climate lawyer at the agency until this year. "So I would expect civil interaction, in terms of the diplomatic negotiating process."
The Environmental Protection Agency also plans to send political and career staffers, although Administrator Scott Pruitt plans to skip the conference.
Trump administration officials are expected to tout fossil fuels and nuclear energy as potential ways to reduce emissions and combat climate change during a session focused on how U.S. energy resources can aid poor countries in meeting growing electricity needs. The presentation, first reported by the New York Times and obtained by The Washington Post, is titled "The Role of Cleaner and More Efficient Fossil Fuels and Nuclear Power in Climate Mitigation."
"As the world seeks to reduce emissions while promoting economic prosperity, fossil fuels will continue to play a central role in the energy mix," states an outline of the presentation, which will include speakers from coal giant Peabody Energy and from NuScale Power, a nuclear engineering firm.
Such an approach could trigger sharp reactions from other nations at the international conference, where the main focus of the Paris agreement is compelling countries to move away from fossil fuels toward more renewable forms of energy.
But mostly, some observers say, the United States probably won't be a key player at the talks — a significant departure from its leading role under President Barack Obama.
"Trump is utterly isolated, and U.S. positions and negotiators will be largely ignored as a result. This has become a life-and-death issue for most countries," said Paul Bledsoe, a former Clinton White House climate adviser and lecturer at American University's Center for Environmental Policy.
In Bonn, other nations have plenty of work to do to implement the Paris agreement. That includes discussing financing for developing countries to help with climate adaptation and emissions reductions, laying down guidelines for determining how much countries will need to increase the ambitiousness of emissions reductions in future years, and setting up mechanisms to monitor and verify whether nations are living up to their pledges.
The global meeting in Germany begins days after the release of a dire report from the U.S. government, which affirmed that human activity is the dominant driver of global warming — a conclusion at odds with White House policies and the president's rhetoric.
The report warns of potential sea level rise as high as eight feet by the year 2100, and details climate-related damage across the United States that is unfolding as a result of 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit of global warming since 1900.
At the same time, the United Nations' Environment Program recently published its annual "emissions gap" report, which documents just how far off course the world is from its professed goals under the Paris agreement of holding the warming of the planet to 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) above preindustrial levels.
It found that even if countries follow through on their current pledges under the Paris accord, it still would leave the world on course for 3.2 degrees Celsius (5.76 Fahrenheit) degrees of warming.
In other words, the world remains dramatically off course for hitting its own goals under the Paris agreement.
The meeting in Bonn won't fix that. But countries that a year ago feared Trump's election would hinder the Paris agreement are determined to move it forward.
Last fall in Morocco, said Harvard University environmental economics professor Robert Stavins, "a lot of the delegations were sort of in shock." But that shock has given way to a sort of acceptance, at least in the near term.
"What happened is that they have now absorbed the reality of this administration," he said, "in lots of ways."

Buccaneers break 87-year-old NFL record for rushing futility during embarrassing 38-3 loss to Saints
Jesus Flores-Marmolejo, Writer
The NFL has existed for more than 100 years and in that time, no team had ever done what the Tampa Bay Buccaneers did on Sunday. During the Buccaneers' 38-3 loss to the Saints, Tampa Bay somehow only managed five rushing attempts, which set the NFL record for fewest rushing attempts in a game.
To say Tampa Bay gave up on the run would definitely be an understatement, because it was worse than that. It was almost like the Bucs forgot the run existed. After calling two run plays in the first quarter, they would only call two for the rest of the game. The crazy thing is that Tampa Bay was on track to finish the game with just four rushing attempts, but it ended up reaching five because Blaine Glabbert's kneel down on the final play of the game counted as a rushing attempt.

Simultaneous Heating and Cooling with CO2 High Temperature Heat Pumps
The fundamental principle of heat pumps is to absorb heat at low-temperature levels and dispense it as useful heat at a higher temperature.
A heat pump uses heat sources that are normally technically not usable. For instance, a heat pump can increase the temperature of geothermal energy from 10 °C to 40 °C. In addition to geothermal energy, it can utilise surface water and seasonal heat stores as heat sources.
But a heat pump only lives up to its full potential in terms of performance and sustainability when it converts waste heat from industrial production, exhaust air from air-conditioning systems, or waste heat from chillers and then makes it available as heat output at a higher temperature level. Using a heat pump generates significant energy savings because it optimises such processes.
With the help of CO2, a natural refrigerant – whose technical name is R-744 – it is possible to achieve effective temperatures of up to 110 °C.
This opens up applications in the fields of district heating, heat provision in industrial process and drying technology.
Standard heat pumps are usually inadequate for heating potable water. When water is heated, temperatures of 60 to 70 °C need to be achieved in order to remove the risk of legionella. These high temperatures are usually generated by means of inefficient electrical element heating.
High temperature heat pumps like Engie's thermeco2 can provide both Low-Temperature Hot Water (LTHW) and Domestic Hot Water (DHW) without the need for supplementary electrical heating.
CO2 is harmless to use (classified as A1), cheap to procure, and, with a GWP of 1, has no harmful effects on the earth's atmosphere.
CO2 (in subcritical mode) has become standard for use in refrigeration – for instance, in the cooling and storage of food.
At higher temperatures (supercritical mode), it is possible to implement heat pump applications that are highly efficient in their respective temperature ranges. Supercritical applications are a relatively new field of application for CO2 as a refrigerant.
CO2 is predestined for all applications that require cooling and heating at the same time, such as an air-conditioned hotel with a swimming pool and sauna, for example.
In the long term, a trend towards natural refrigerants seems likely, due to the F-gas Regulation, which is currently leading to restrictions on volumes of halogenated refrigerants.
Refrigeration and heat pump technology is key to the future of energy-efficient building services design. If we stop generating power from fossil fuels and instead generate it from renewable energy sources whose availability is permanently shifting, we will need storage facilities to provide load balance. Thermal storage can provide this load balance. CO2 is a highly suitable refrigerant for efficient thermal energy storage. In case of excess power in the grid, hot and/or cold thermal energy storage units can be charged with a CO2 heat pump and discharged again when power becomes scarce.
The range of CO2 heat pumps from ENGIE Refrigeration comprises eleven performance classes between 45 and 1,440 kilowatts. Currently machines in the performance class of 500 to 1,000 kilowatts are the most popular. Models are also available in a hygienic stainless steel design, making them ideal for sensitive applications such as the food industry.

F-gas Regulation
The F-gas Regulation published by the European Parliament and European Council came into effect on 1 January 2015. Since that date, refrigerant filling capacities have been weighted according to their global warming potential. The F-gas Regulation is intended to reduce the volumes of fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-gases) put into circulation in the EU by 79% from 2015 levels down to 35 million tons of CO2 equivalent by 2030. This objective is to be achieved by three measures in particular:
A step-by-step restriction of the F-gases available on the market; by 2030, they should be down to 21 per cent of the amounts generated in the reference years of 2013 to 2015 (phase-down scenario; see figure)
Prohibiting the sale of refrigerants with high GWP values
Extending existing regulations on leak tests, certification, disposal and labelling
GWP – global warming potential of refrigerants
The GWP value (global warming potential) is a CO2 equivalent that determines the relative greenhouse potential of a chemical compound. This measure describes the average warming effect on the earth's atmosphere over a specific period (usually 100 years). It thereby specifies how much a defined mass of a specific greenhouse gas contributes towards global warming when compared to the same mass of CO2. For example, the GWP for the refrigerant R-134a for a period of 100 years is 1430. This means that one kilogramme of R-134a will contribute 1430 times as strongly to the greenhouse effect within the first 100 years of being released as one kilogramme of CO2.

[size=36]US Ambassador to Baghdad: We will not attack neighboring countries from Iraq .. We imposed sanctions for these reasons![/size]
BAGHDAD (Reuters)
- US Ambassador to Baghdad Matthew Toler said on Sunday that his country would not use its forces in Iraq to carry out any activity against neighboring countries, pointing out the reasons for imposing sanctions on Iraqi personalities and Hezbollah.
"US forces and their presence in Iraq is part of the international coalition, which came at the request of the Iraqi government," said Toller in an interview with a number of media outlets including Mawazin News. "We always hear from Iraqi leaders that we need to stay strong and "Noting that" his country has channels of communication with Iran and do not want another. "
"As long as the need continues, and as long as the Iraqi government keeps demanding this, I will always hear from security leaders that the need for an international coalition is continuing," he said.
"The United States has put the terrorists and Hezbollah on the terrorism list for its cooperation with terrorist organizations and the Revolutionary Guard," he said, noting that "sanctions on people are part of a congressional law that allows us to impose sanctions on any person in the world who acts on things that violate human rights or cause corruption in those countries. These powers have been used as many times as in Burma against some human rights violators. "
"The actions of the four people (Ryan Chaldean, Ahmed al-Jubouri, Nufal al-Aakoub and Qadu) undermine the security and stability of Iraq and the region, and I do not apologize or back down on such decisions, because these people are not entitled to deal in America financially and what we have done supports the strengthening of sovereignty in Iraq against Those who challenge the Iraqi government and components. "
He pointed out that "there are totals not under the control of the Baghdad government, was threatening embassy staff, so we have reduced the number of employees to reduce losses."
"The Iraqi government has understood our concern about reducing the number of embassy staff," he added

Dale Carnegie once said, "When fate hands you a lemon, make lemonade".
The above statement couldn't be truer when you consider recent events in the life of our dear brother, Onyechi Oguagha.
By now, all of us in ICOC Nigeria family of churches probably know of our dear brother Nichie Oguagha's battle with Cancer. What you might not know is that he has just written an autobiography published by Illumination Publishers International. The book is titled, "Refined: My Ride with Cancer". This is his story.
For young Christians reading this, Onyechi Oguagha or "Nichie" as he is fondly called, led the Lagos Church and oversaw the West Africa Mission (Anglophone) from 1993 to 1999.
God is once more using our dear brother to show us all how a potential stumbling block can indeed become a stepping stone. May we all draw incredible strength and courage from the life of this man of faith…We'll need it when we too are confronted by our own challenging moments.
Nichie currently leads the Brooklyn Region of the New York City Church of Christ and was missionary to Kenya, Zimbabwe and South Africa.


Singapore investors are being encouraged to get on board a global trend towards responsible investing, with the launch of an index that includes five companies listed here.
A growing number of investors across the world are looking at this type of investing, according to Ms Arisa Kishigami, head of ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) for Asia-Pacific at global index provider FTSE Russell.
They are becoming more aware of the need to respond to global risks such as environmental sustainability and climate change, she said.
"A few years ago, investors were hesitant to embrace ESG strategies due to questions on the contribution to positive investment returns," she told The Straits Times in a recent interview.
"But the interpretation has been changing such that ESG factors are now increasingly considered investment-relevant and as part of the investment process."
Ms Kishigami added that this has also been the case for the Asean market, which has been steadily gaining traction among investors.
It can also help companies to understand what investors are looking for today, especially in terms of ESG practices.
MS ARISA KISHIGAMI, head of ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) for Asia-Pacific at global index provider FTSE Russell.
To cater to growing demand, FTSE Russell since 2001 has rolled out several ESG-focused indices with various exchange partners in Asia, including the latest FTSE4Good Asean 5 Index, which was launched last month.
Developed with the Asean Exchanges, the index comprises stocks listed in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines and Thailand. It has a net market capitalisation of US$165.15 billion (S$226 billion) as at April 29, with an annual dividend yield of 3.66 per cent.
Of the 47 constituent stocks, five are listed in Singapore: City Developments, CapitaLand, Singapore Exchange, CapitaLand Mall Trust and CapitaLand Commercial Trust.
Companies on the index have met a rigorous assessment using more than 300 indicators covering the three pillars of environmental, social and governance to achieve an overall cumulative score.
Ms Kishigami said the index aims to serve institutional investors who are interested in monitoring, supporting and investing in Asean companies that have better ESG disclosure and action. "It can also help companies to understand what investors are looking for today, especially in terms of ESG practices."

Creamy risotto with crisp bacon. Serving suggestion: plate the risotto and add one raw egg yolk to each serving, allowing the diner to break the yolk and stir into the rice.
Cook and stir the diced bacon in a large frypan over medium heat until browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon and reserve.
Heat 40g butter in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion begins to turn golden brown at the edges, about 2 minutes. Pour in the rice and stir until the rice is coated in butter and has started to toast, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; stir in one-third of the hot chicken stock and continue stirring until the rice has absorbed the liquid and turned creamy. Repeat this process twice more, stirring constantly. Stirring in the broth should take 15 to 20 minutes in all. When finished, the rice should be tender yet slightly firm.
Remove the risotto from the heat and stir in the remaining 40g of butter, the Parmesan cheese and the reserved bacon. Season to taste with salt and pepper before serving.

Match-Up: NY Giants @ Baltimore Ravens »
Power Rankings: Week Fifteen
December 19th, 2012 Jonathon Scruggs Posted in Features
Despite technical difficulties the last two weeks, we're back at it with the power rankings. Some will rise, others fall, but in the end only 12 teams may advance. As always if you think you can do better; leave your own rankings in the comments below.
1. Houston Texans (12-2). A win away from home field advantage.
2. Atlanta Falcons (12-2). After a few shaky performances the Falcons obliterated the Giants.
3. Denver Broncos (11-3). Peyton Manning has to be the favorite for league MVP.
4. San Francisco 49ers (10-3-1). Massive win over the Pats has got to be a major boon for Harbaugh and his squad.
5. New England Patriots (10-4). Despite a furious comeback the Pats fall victim to Colin Kapernick.
6. Green Bay Packers (10-4). All of a sudden the Pack has found its rhythm.
7. Baltimore Ravens (9-5). Officially in freefall.
8. Seattle Seahawks (9-5). Russell Wilson might be the steal of last year's draft.
9. Indianapolis Colts (9-5). Goodell is still praying for a Colts/Broncos matchup at Mile High.
10. Washington Redskins (8-6). From outside looking in to first place in the division, bonanza.
11. Chicago Bears (8-6). Much like Baltimore, the Bears have really begun to struggle after starting hot.
12. Cincinnati Bengals (8-6). The Bengals are a win away from facing the Ravens at home for the division.
13. New York Giants (8-6). Suddenly the Giants are out of first place and staring down the barrel of a three way race.
14. Minnesota Vikings (8-6). Minnesota still has hope of clawing into the post season.
15. Dallas Cowboys (8-6). Dallas looks to have finally gotten the wakeup call.
16. Pittsburgh Steelers (7-7). The Steelers desperately need a win to keep their hope of playoffs alive. Lose to the Bengals and it's over.
17. St. Louis Rams (6-7-1). Bad luck continues to plague this team.
18. New York Jets (6-8). Seems like they're 1-13 not 6-8.
19. Miami Dolphins (6-8). Growing pains continue in Miami.
20. New Orleans Saints (6-8). Would Sean Payton have really made that big a difference?
21. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (6-8). Three straight losses after a fast start, Ouch.
22. San Diego Chargers (5-9). Norv Turner's clock is ticking rapidly.
23. Cleveland Browns (5-9). There's some real talent here, it's just too bad the team is headed for another apparent rebuild.
24. Buffalo Bills (5-9). This team has far too much talent to be underperforming so badly.
25. Carolina Panthers (5-9). Teams figured out Cam Newton this season and it shows. Can he rebound?
26. Tennessee Titans (5-9). Not enough playmakers on the roster to make this team a consistent threat.
27. Arizona Cardinals (5-9). With no Quarterback to speak of, Arizona is going nowhere fast.
28. Oakland Raiders (4-10). The trade for Carson Palmer may go down as one of the worst in the history of sports.
29. Detroit Lions (4-10). Lions just can't find a way to win.
30. Philadelphia Eagles (4-10). Eagle fans cannot wait for this disaster of a season to end.
31. Jacksonville Jaguars (2-12). The London Jaguars limp to the finish line.
32. Kansas City Chiefs (2-12). Had the #1 pick in the draft all locked up, and then ruined it by beating the Panthers.

The only trouble is, Little Larry doesn't want to learn how to climb. He's perfectly happy on the ground. Will the sanctuary keepers and other chimpanzees be able to teach Little Larry how to climb so he can graduate from forest school?

baking with a pat of butter, a dash of flour, a sprinkle of sugar... and immeasurable love.
This Melting Moments recipe is my personal favourite because as the name suggests, it simply melts in the mouth. I tend to like pastries and the likes that are not saccharine sweet, and this is one of the few savoury recipes I treasure. Once you've started popping one into your mouth, you won't be able to stop until you've finished the last of the lot. This, you can be rest assured.
Prepare a baking tray lined with Silpat or non-stick baking paper.
Sift the icing sugar into a large mixing bowl.
Add in the butter and salt to the sugar and beat the mixture till light and fluffy.
Gradually add in the sifted flours until combined.
Place the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a fluted nozzle and pipe 1-inch rounds onto the prepared baking tray.
Bake for 15 minutes, or until cookies are golden.
Cool the cookies on the baking tray.
I like baking these cookies as a simple treat for family and friends because preparing and baking them are rather hassle-free. It helps that the requisite ingredients are easily always available in any baking enthusiast's refrigerator, including mine. With such a simple recipe, you won't need much elbow grease too.
If you like having your cookies turn out looking like roses, use Wilton's 2D tip like I did. I must caution though, that this recipe churns out batter of rather stiff consistency, so expect the 'roses' you pipe to have jagged edges.
These cookies keep well, for a couple of weeks in an air-tight container. Since Christmas is around the corner, this recipe is a good start if you want to please family and friends alike.

Before you read any further, review the contest rules and register right now for the $1,000 Scholarship Giveaway from eCampusTours.
Perform online scholarship searches. Online scholarship searches, such as the one provided on eCampusTours, are research tools that can help you find leads on potential scholarships for which you may want to apply. Because there are numerous scholarship searches available online, you have to make sure to use the ones that are legit and reliable. When utilizing online scholarship searches, make sure the service is free, the scholarship information provided is up-do-date, and the company providing the service does not sell, lease, or rent your information to third parties.
Obtain a scholarship reference book. Printed scholarship directories can be very helpful in your scholarship search. Visit your local library or bookstore and pick up the latest edition of a scholarship reference book. Be sure to choose a book that gives detailed descriptions of the requirements, award amounts, etc.
Utilize an Internet search engine. You may be pretty amazed by the amount of scholarships you can find just by using a search engine like Google or GoodSearch. The key is to search for very specific scholarship criteria. Don't just type in "scholarships." Think about your hobbies, extracurricular activities, physical characteristics, etc. and implement those into your search. For example, if one of your hobbies is skateboarding, try searching "scholarships for skateboarders." Or if you suffer from allergies, search "scholarships for people with allergies." You get the picture. Just think outside the box because you never know what you may find.
Ask your high school counselor. If you are still in high school, drop by the counseling office and inquire about scholarships. Your counselor should have a lot of information about local scholarships because scholarship sponsors often send out updates and announcements to nearby high schools. You should speak with your counselor early in the school year so he/she will be able to keep a look-out on any scholarships in which you may qualify. Be sure to give your counselor information about your extracurricular activities/talents and your family's financial background.
Make inquiries at your college. If you are in college or know which college you would like to attend, be sure to find out what kind of scholarships are offered through the school. You should speak with someone in your academic department to find out if scholarships specific to your major are available. You should also contact the school's financial aid office. A financial aid advisor will be able to help you learn whether you are eligible for any need-based scholarships or grants awarded directly from the school. College websites can also be very helpful. Look for scholarship information on the admissions and financial aid sections of the websites.
Research organizations and clubs in which you have been involved. What kind of organizations have you been involved with at school? National Honor Society? Future Business Leaders of America? Key Club? A sorority or fraternity? These types of organizations often offer educational scholarships to their members. Think about all of the extracurricular activities in which you are involved and then research the websites of those organizations.
Check with your employer. Do you have a part-time job? Many companies offer scholarship opportunities to their employees. For instance, companies such as McDonald's, Walmart, and Cracker Barrel all offer scholarship opportunities for employees. Speak with someone in your HR department to see if scholarships are offered through your place of employment.
Tap into your parents' network. You may be able to find scholarships through your parents' network. Many companies and organizations often award scholarships to the children of their employees or members. Be sure to check with your parents' place of employment as well as with any organizations or clubs to which your parents belong.
Check with local and national businesses. Many small businesses like to give back to their community via scholarship opportunities for students. Check with your city's Chamber of Commerce for a list of local businesses and then visit their websites or place a phone call to see if these companies offer any scholarships. Large companies, like Coca-Cola, also offer scholarship awards so be sure to include national businesses during your search.
Contact community service organizations and civic groups. Service organizations and civic groups often hold fundraisers in their communities in order to offer scholarships to local students. Make some calls to your local Kiwanis club, Lions club, Jaycees, church, synagogue, mosque, etc. to inquire about available scholarships. Most community groups sponsor scholarships that are open to all students who live in the area so you usually don't have to be a member of the organization to apply.
As you can see, there is a multitude of ways to find scholarship opportunities. You just have to put forth a little effort. Before you begin your scholarship search, be sure to read Steps For Getting a Scholarship and Watch Out For Scholarship Scams.

Q: How to get the email activity status from send grid for a single email sent to multiple recipients I am sending an email (with custom arguments) to multiple recipients in To list and receiving one message id.
Now I am trying to use sendgrid email activity api to fetch email status by using the query by providing the custom argument.
In the response of this email activity, i am only receiving status of only one recipient but not getting other recipients status.
Is there anything that i am missing while sending the email or searching with email activity?
I have tried searching for the same email in sendgrid and i can see the status of individual recipients but unable to get the same information using email activity

A: After doing some research and investigation, I could able to fix this.
I tried to search different mails by changing the query as part of the email activity api. I have found that it is returning multiple emails. So by this, i can see that there an array of mails returning from sendgrid response.
To drill down the issue, I have sent a single email to multiple recipients. In send grid activity, I have verified each recipient email to see if there is any difference which is causing my filter to not return the data.
I found that when a mail is sent to multiple recipients, the custom arguments were being added only to the first recipient of To email addresses, first recipient of CC etc.
Below is the code that I used to send the mail in C#.
    SendGridMessage msg = MailHelper.CreateSingleEmailToMultipleRecipients(from, recipients, subject, plainText, htmlContent);
msg.AddCustomArgs(uniqueArgs);
SendGrid.Response response = await client.SendEmailAsync(msg);

It was never appending these custom arguments to rest of other recipients.
To fix this I have to use "AddGlobalCustomArgs" insteadof "AddCustomArgs" to add the arguments to the mail which is adding the arguments to all the recipient mails.
msg.AddGlobalCustomArgs(uniqueArgs);

After sending a mail using this, the custom arguments are getting added to all the recipients mails. Verified this for each recipient mail sent as part of Sendgrid activity.
Now, tried running the email api with the same query filter that i have, and now I am able retrieve all the emails that I have sent with custom arguments.
Hope this answer helps

From professional basketball games being broadcast on ESPN+ to international football matches available for viewing on social media platforms, there is something for everyone when it comes to watching top-tier sports competitions via the internet.
What Is Live Streaming?
Live streaming is a way for viewers to watch video content in real time over the internet. It works by using a camera or other recording device connected directly to either your computer or mobile device. The video then gets sent out over the internet, where it can be seen by anyone who is connected. This type of technology allows users to watch things as they happen; meaning if you're watching a soccer game taking place halfway around the world, you can see every goal as soon as it occurs!
Advantages Of Watching Games Through Live Streaming
Live streaming provides many advantages over traditional methods of watching sports events. One advantage is that viewers do not have to physically be present at an event location in order to take part in all of its action – this freedom makes live streaming incredibly convenient for those who want immediate access without having to travel long distances. Additionally, there are no restrictions on which countries can watch games; whether you're from North America or South Africa, you can tune in from wherever you may be located! Finally, many platforms offer additional features such as real-time stats and commentary – providing viewers with even more information about what's going on during any given match or competition.
What Sports Can You Stream Online?
There are countless types of sporting events that can be streamed online these days – pretty much anything from rugby and cricket matches right down to local 5K races can now be watched via live streams on various platforms like YouTube TV or Hulu + Live TV (depending where in the world you live). International tournaments such as Wimbledon (tennis) or F1 Grand Prix (motor racing) have also embraced this technology; making sure that viewers never miss out regardless of geographic location!
Top Live Streaming Platforms For Sports Fans
There are dozens of different options when it comes to finding a reliable service provider for watching sports online but some top choices include Fox Sports Go (USA), DAZN (Canada/Europe), Sky Go (UK/Europe), and Hotstar (India). Each platform offers unique features depending on which country you're based in so make sure to research each one thoroughly before making any decisions about which one might suit your needs best .
Benefits Of Watching Sports On Demand Via A Live Stream
In addition to giving fans instant access whenever they may need it, live streaming also provides other potential benefits such as improved engagement levels within fan communities due increased opportunities for interaction with fellow supporters & analysts alike – plus higher overall viewership numbers = more money into team coffers = better quality players & facilities etc… It's clear then why leading clubs & organizations are eager embrace this technology – especially considering how competitive modern day sport has become!
How To Find Your Favorite Teams And Players On A Live Stream Service Provider?
Finding your team's next game isn't always easy but thankfully most providers have thought ahead here too – usually offering dedicated search functions either built into their apps or websites themselves – allowing users quickly filter results based on specific criteria like league/team name / date etc.. Alternatively there should also be plenty featured upcoming fixtures available straight away upon logging into any account dashboard too!
How Much Does Streaming Cost?
Prices vary between different services but generally speaking they should all provide free trials so users can test out content before committing financially – however prices will obviously depend upon what package deal / subscription plan chosen overall Here's an example: Netflix charges $9/month for its basic package while adding HD resolution will cost another $3/month extra per user.. So depending upon budget constraints – try looking around at different offerings beforehand just make sure get best value possible investing into actual stream itself !

The National Merit® Scholarship Program is an academic competition for recognition and scholarships that began in 1955.
Only the PSAT offered in October of Junior Year enters you in the National Merit Scholarship Program competition.
Take the PSAT/NMSQT® in the specified year of the high school program and no later than the third year in grades 9 through 12, regardless of grade classification or educational pattern.
Be enrolled as a high school student (traditional or homeschooled), progressing normally toward graduation or completion of high school, and planning to accept admission to college no later than the fall following completion of high school.
Officials of each sponsor college select winners of their awards from Finalists who have been accepted for admission and have informed NMSC by the published deadlines that the sponsor college or university is their first choice. These awards are renewable for up to four years of undergraduate study. The published deadlines for reporting a sponsor college as first choice can be viewed on page 3 of the Requirements and Instructions for Semifinalists in the 2018 National Merit®Scholarship Program.
Merit Scholarship awards are supported by some 420 independent sponsors and by NMSC's own funds. Sponsor organizations include corporations and businesses, company foundations, professional associations, and colleges and universities.
For more information visit:National Merit Scholarship Corporation Website.
Information regarding National Merit was obtained from nationalmerit.org.
Reviews.com, is a website dedicated to conducting data driven and unbiased research about topics that can help make an impact in people's lives.
Reviews.com conducted scholarship research, and found a common issue among students was having the tools to help sort through all the available scholarships to find those that would be most applicable to their situation. They spent over 200 hours researching 17 of the most popular scholarship search platforms that are currently available. They analyzed and audited them using five core metrics to identify key functionality, research tools, scholarship results, and useful student resources.
In September of the following year, more than two-thirds (about 34,000) of the approximately 50,000 high scorers on the PSAT/NMSQT® receive Letters of Commendation in recognition of their outstanding academic promise. Commended Students are named on the basis of a nationally applied Selection Index score that may vary from year to year and is typically below the level required for participants to be named Semifinalists in their respective states. Although Commended Students do not continue in the competition for National Merit® Scholarships, some of these students do become candidates for Special Scholarships sponsored by corporations and businesses.

Pickups for Week 12
Ryan Mallett, Houston—He didn't play bad in his debut, in fact he did all you could ask of him. He threw for 211 yards and two TDs, with just one pick. If you're a Ben Roethlisberger owner looking for a one-week fill-in, this could be your guy.
Josh McCown could serve as a nice fill-in for a week. Alex Brandon/Associated Press
Josh McCown, Tampa Bay—He's definitely comfortable throwing to Mike Evans who caught two touchdowns and gained over 200 yards last week.
Andy Dalton, Cincinnati—If he's available, and you need a sub for one week, go ahead and give him a shot as the Texans are the worst in giving up points to QBs.
Jonas Gray, New England—Rushed for 199 yards and four TDs in Week 11. He's the obvious top pickup this week, that is if you are in a league where nobody saw him coming.
Alfred Blue, Houston—Rushed for 156 yards in Week 11, keep an eye on Arian Foster's health.
Dan Herron, Indianapolis—With Ahmad Bradshaw out, Herron could get some carries if Trent Richardson doesn't do well early.
Josh Gordon returns Week 12, so don't be afraid to insert him into your starting lineup. Evan Vucci/Associated Press
Josh Gordon, Cleveland—If you're in a league that's not very cut-throat there's a possibility that he's still available, but everyone's had Week 12 circled on their calendars.
Cecil Shorts III, Jacksonville—Has been targeted at least 7 times in each of the last five games.
Kendall Wright, Tennessee—He faces the Philadelphia Eagles who couldn't cover a lick on Sunday. They allow the second-most points to wide receivers.
Coming and going
Flash Gordon Returns—The much anticipated return of Josh Gordon is upon us. Hopefully those that stowed him away are still in the playoff hunt.
All Day says goodnight?—Adrian Peterson doesn't look like he'll play after the NFL was able to keep him suspended on Tuesday. If you've been saving him on your roster, don't unload him until it's definitive that he won't play this year.
A matter of time—Earlier this season I was big on selling Ahmad Bradshaw high, since he always seems to get hurt. Well, it finally happened. He's out for the year and that may mean Trent Richardson's value increases in Indy or Dan Herron gets an opportunity.
Ben Tate and LeGarrette Blount out—There are teams that need running backs, so maybe these guys are onto something. Blount wasn't going to threaten Le'Veon Bell, and Tate was in a muddled mess of a backfield in terms of playing time, so maybe it made sense for them to whine until they got released. The Colts could possibly give Tate a look, says ESPN.com.

Keywords: European Identity; European Cultural Politics; Memory Politics; History Museums; House of European History.
This paper examines the House of European History (HEH), a museum opening its doors in Brussels early 2017. It was initiated by the European Parliament to stimulate the emergence of European identity, just like national historical museums were founded all over Europe in the 19th century to develop national identity and thus contribute to national consolidation. Still today, history is seen as the malleable raw material out of which contemporary identity can be constructed. Yet, the Academic Project Team (APT), which developed the permanent exhibition, chose to replace the concept of identity with memory, stressing its potential to offer a more differentiated historical narrative. Analyzing the museological, political and historiographical aspects of the museum, I discuss whether the HEH can become the place for conflicting views and debate that the APT aspires it to be, or whether it will end up disseminating a new master narrative for the EU.


Fresh Okras (or Lady's Fingers as these hairy and sticky vegetables are often called in Malaysia) plus shrimp and sambal equal to sambal okra.
Wait a minute—I wish cooking Malaysian-style Lady's Fingers were as easy as 1 + 1 = 2, but nothing prepared fresh is ever that simple (if it was, you wouldn't need food blogs like mine!).
Granted this is not a super-hard dish to prepare at home, but you must ensure ALL the following ingredients are present in your kitchen. No cheating, or else everyone will leave your dinner party early.
Sambal Okra (Sambal Lady's Fingers) recipe - Granted this is not a super-hard dish to prepare at home, but you must ensure ALL the following ingredients are present in your kitchen.
Heat the wok and add the cooking oil. Stir fry chopped garlic and add in shrimp. Add the lady's fingers (okra), blended chilies, toasted belacan, and salt. Stir fry for a few minutes until the okra becomes sticky and cooked. Toss in the sliced chili, dish out and serve hot.
Voila! You now have Malaysian-style Lady's Fingers - a classic dish from Malaysia.
Wow, this looks good! I love ladies fingers but it's very expensive to order at Malaysian restaurants. I will try your recipe.
This is the kind of dish I like. Very simple. Thanks for sharing!
i just cooked this dish for the very first time today.
yours doesn't look that sticky though.
any advice to reduce the stickiness a bit?
I LOOVVEE Ladies Fingers, especially in an omelette. Yum!
my friend's maid (from indonesia) cooks this dish almost the same way as you, but instead of 'hae bee', she uses fried ikan bilis… very sedap as well!!
Ok, I came in here a wee bit too late. lol. What I do is I pound the Heh-bee with the pestle and mortar and smash it to tiny bits and pieces. By doing so, you are letting out the juices of the heh-bee. Once done, you put the sambal belacan and mix it together with the heh-bee.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe! Cooked it this afternoon, but used ikan bilis instead of the dried shrimp. Came out beautiful!!!
Thanks for the recipe. I love Okra and at times am at loss of what else to do besides dipping them in hot broth for hot pot or stew them in Indian curry.
Thanks for sharing this recipe. :) tried it today, and love it very much.
Now I know the secret of good Okra recipe. dried shrimp! thank you for sharing the malaysian okras recipe.
Your recipes are good but it seems you have used Shrimp in most of your vegetable recipes . In Bangladesh , we also use medium size shrimps or very small shrimps in Vegetable stir fry or veg.curry . It is also very good taste . As you may know that Shrimp has itself a very good taste . Whatever you add with Shrimp it will teste good. It is proved . But, sometimes eating too much Shrimps are not good for heart specially after 35 age . Also, adding Shrimps with vegetables sometimes expensive also . So, I wish if you can provide some Vegetable recipes or Chinese vegetables recipes without using Shrimps.
You can skip the shrimp and make the dish completely vegetarian.
Came across your recipe page while looking for sambal okra recipe. My husband and I cooked it a couple of nights ago and it turned out really good. So just wanted to comment and say thank you for sharing this recipe online! Look forward to visiting your site again soon.
I pound the belachan, dried shrimp, shallots, garlic and chilli, quick stir in oil, throw in the okra and stir fry for 1-2 minutes, then pour in tamarind juice and a little sugar. Excellent! Sweet, sour and spicy! Will love to try with ikan billis.
I cooked this the same way and with the same ingredients, recipe from a Malaysian cook book my husband brought to Canada 24 years ago.
Your recipes are always great. In this recipe, you mentioned red chilies (Blend them)… what do you mean 'blend them' and how?
Blend them with food processor.
I have been following your blog for a while. Your recipes are great :). I love Lady Fingers Belacan. There's a Malaysian restaurant near me and I order it whenever this dish whenever I go there. This is a very simple dish to make; however, I am not able to find the Belacan (Malaysian Shrimp Paste). I was born in the Philippines but came to San Francisco when I was 6. There is shrimp paste that we use but it is slightly different from the Malaysian Shrimp Paste. Do you have any idea where I can locate this Malaysian Shrimp Paste and what brand should I be looking for? Again, I would think that it would be easy to find it here in SF (we have such a diverse community). But I have gone to two huge Asian markets and have had no luck. Please help :). Thank you!
You can find Malaysian belacan or shrimp paste at 99 Ranch. You have to look carefully it's a block and wrapped in paper.


Hi, Hope I can get some help. I just got a 96 EZGO DCS golf cart that does not run and not sure what the other person done trying to get it going. What I do know is the the A1 spade terminal on the controller was bad so I was able to get a good used controller from a local shop. I put a set of New batteries in it and am getting nothing when I hit the accelerator pedal. No click at the solenoid. So I replaced the Solenoid and still no click. After digging into it further I found that the white and red wires at the Reed switch was broken in the Charging port. I was told to tie the red and white wire together to just bypass the Reed switch. Still no clicking at the Solenoid. I am not sure where to go at this point. Any advice is appreciated.
You need to run the Reed switch wire toy the battery packs main positive connection to bypass it. There's a post in the EZGO resource section of the forum with reed switch bypassing instructions and a picture.
Thanks HotRod. I found it in the Resources but just to confirm are you saying leave the red wire screwed into the larger terminal and attach a jumper back to the + side of the battery pack? What should I do with the white wire. The reed switch was broken in pieces so now its a bare wire.
If the reed switch is broken just cut the two wires close to the reed switch and connect them together.
After running a wire beck to + side of the battery pack I still have no click at Solenoid. I tested good continuity at both F/R micro switches. Any suggestions on where to go from here.
I know you said you replaced the controller but have you done any work on the electrical system since then without putting the run tow switch in the tow position? Does the reverse alarm work?
I have always made sure the tow switch was OFF. I even took the switch out and tested to make sure it was working. Continuity at all pins. The reverse alarm wires are not hooked up so there is the small red and black wires disconnected with the red wire pulled out of the alarm itself so there is the red, black and green with black stripe not hooked up.
Another bit of information - I am getting Battery pack voltage 38.6 on the large post (Right side of Solenoid/Battery side with red wires. ) but only 35 on the other large post (body of cart side). My ohm meter jumps all over so don't have much faith in it so I have a new coming this week.
Can you tell me the correct way to jump the Solenoid? I have someone trying to convince me to jump it but unsure of what 2 terminals to jump so I refuse to try it as I don't want to create more issues by smoking something else in the electrical system. I really appreciate your help with this issue.
To jump the solenoid you run a jumper (6 gauge or larger) from one large solenoid post to the other large solenoid post. Make sure the run tow switch is in the tow position when you do this. The EZGO DCS controllers are fragile and I've seen them fry when jumping the solenoid.
Nice, I was told to jump one small post to the other small post. Ok, I will try this tonight. I am assuming with the key on and hitting the accelerator pedal?
After the jumper is connected flip the run tow switch to run, turn the key on and press the throttle. I'd suggest checking the micro switch in the pedal box under the floor mat to make sure that's not your problem before jumping the solenoid.
Thanks HotRod, That is my plan. I have a new micro switch on order expected any day now So I was going to swap that switch out before jumping it. I wll let you know the results once I try that.
I have swapped out the Micro Switch in the pedal box with no changes. After attaching a cable across both large terminals to jump the Solenoid I got nothing when hitting the gas peddle. Where would you suggest I go from here?
I would say you have a bad controller.
I got my new Ohm meter last night but didn't have much time to go over the cart. I have just recently changed the key switch and the micro- switch at the ITS in the floor but still no click at the solenoid. Battery pack is 38.6 volts. I have the same voltage at the solenoid large terminal battery side and 35 v at the other side. With my old Ohm meter I was reading 64.2 at both small post on the solenoid so I knew the meter was not working properly. With the new one I am getting 0 volts at both terminals. Do you have any suggestions as to what I should check before buying a new controller?
Have you tested the micro switch in the pedal box?
I replaced the micro switch in the floor. Could the ITS Sensor be an issue?


Health Wonk Review returns to the inter-webs after a holiday hiatus. Refreshed, renewed, and revitalized, we bring you the best from the brightest!
Typically, we think that drug co-payments as affecting patient payments. However, cost sharing can also affect the price drug companies charge for their goods. The Healthcare Economist examines a case study in Germany to see how changes in cost sharing have affected drug prices.
Enrollment figures are almost final, and no one has a better grasp on the data than Charles Gaba. HealthCare.Gov ended up exactly 5% behind last year( which in turn was 5.3% short of the previous year) State enrollments were also about 5 points lower. Considering the shortened deadline, lack of outreach/advertising and so on, this is actually pretty damned good all things considered.
From HealthAffairs blog, a post discussing how state-based strategies may help protect against the instability that the federal mandate repeal could introduce to health insurance markets.
Louise Norris looks at the impact of the Affordable Care Act's medical loss ratio provision and explains how the "80/20 Rule" works, noting that it's forced health carriers to devote more premium dollars to care and required them to send more than $3.24 billion in rebates to plan members when they haven't.
The impact will vary depending on what type of coverage people have now, but there are certainly concerns that the ACA-compliant individual or small group markets could face adverse selection in some areas of the country if AHPs expand significantly. There are also concerns that people might switch to AHP coverage and then find out that the coverage isn't as good.
InsureBlog's Patrick Paule explains why the ACA's Health Insurance Tax keeps bumping up insurance prices, including employer plans and even Medicare Advantage plans.
At Workers' Comp Insider, Julie Ferguson takes a look back and a look ahead at the workers comp landscape in a substantial wrap-up of news that shaped the prior year and trends that we can expect in the year ahead.
The Pump Handle's entry dives into a new report by the National Academies, noting that the occupational health surveillance systems in place today "have generally not evolved to address the changing nature of work." The authors refer to non-standard work arrangements, such as through temp agencies, "on-demand" or the "gig" economy to make their point.
In David Williams' podcast, Vericred CEO Mike Levin describes the company's role as a clearinghouse for health plan information on provider networks, benefit design, rates and drug formularies.
My contribution is a brief descriptor of the change I see coming in the US health care "system", change that will be massive, disruptive, and desperately needed.
What a GREAT job, Joe – Thank you!!
Regarding the concern of AHP health plans not having coverage as good as the ACA – the attraction for my family(self-employed) is that the bronze ACA plan available in our age group has premiums of $20,000 this year with a per person deductible of $6550. We are looking at spending over $26,000 before the insurance kicks in. The AHP plans would have to be really bad to be worse than what we have now. Oh, and none of our doctors are in any of the plans offered in our state. We are paying the outrageous premium and considering it to be bankruptcy protection only -we will pay all medical costs out-of -pocket.

This year's harvest simply too good to be true
By Hilary Berg
If, indeed, karma exists, we, as a group, must have done something spectacular in our past lives to deserve this year's wine grape harvest.
Around the state, wineries are reporting flavorful fruit with ideal sugars and spot-on acidity. The weather this harvest has also made it memorable. Here in the Willamette Valley, early rain was a welcome sight, settling the dust from an extremely dry summer, giving the grapes a final drink before picking. Beyond that small amount of precipitation, the days have been clear and the nights cool.
Hilary Berg has been the editor of OWP since 2006. She graduated from the University of Kansas with a bachelor's in journalism. She and her husband own a seven-acre vineyard and winery called Roots.
Overall, crews in both the cellar and vineyard appear happy, albeit tired, this crush. Winemakers are also quite pleased.
On Sept. 25, in the southern Willamette Valley, Danuta Pfeiffer of Pfeiffer Winery reported, "Harvest is lovely this year. The weather is warm, not hot, and the September rainstorms are holding back. We're also winning the race against the migratory birds. Fruit set was heavy this year, so we dropped a lot of fruit to keep our tonnage at three tons per acre. The long, warm summer has brought us sweet fruit with well-balanced acids." She ended her summation with "Pinot Noir is still king!" — the numbers don't lie, Danuta; I agree.
Dick Shea of Shea Vineyards, in the northern part of the Willamette Valley, also delivered rave reviews. For his Newberg winery, picking fruit wrapped up Oct. 3. He commented, "The fruit quality seems wonderful. It was really ripe and yet the sugar level was not at all excessive. Ripe flavor also came on while the grapes still retained a high level of natural acidity. The berries were moderate in size, so the wines will have good concentration and intensity. The fruit was remarkably clean coming out of the vineyard.
"The only negative issue is the moderately light yield because of small berries and some dehydration at the end. Everything else seems on the positive side. The quality of the 2018s will be remarkably high."
For Earl Jones of Abacela Winery in the Umpqua Valley, yields also appeared lighter — due to dropping fruit and smaller clusters — compared with the previous year. Unlike Shea, Jones was still harvesting as of Oct. 20. His thoughts thus far?
"Harvest has been really good, and a warm and dry October is super-appreciated." As for the quality of the crop, he offered, "Excellent."
Need I write anymore? I think not. If all goes as planned in the cellar, and karma continues to smile, the 2018s will, no doubt, be simply stellar.
