Sundays are for Procrastination: Baby YouTube Sensations
It's Sunday! You know what that means: you left all your work for today, and you're beating yourself up about it. Yet somehow, you still manage to procrastinate. That's all right, we've all been there! Here's yet another reason to put that homework off until later. These little tots are YouTube stars and most of them are too young to even know it!
We Love Bands With Accents!
There's something about those dreamy musicians with those cute little accents. Ever since the Beatles invaded the American scene, we've been craving the latest foreign musical phenomenon. Do you ever wonder why Justin Bieber's so popular? 'Cause he's small and cuddly? No! It's because he's Canadian! Somehow, those foreigners know exactly what we want to hear and they always deliver. Could it be that their music is just better? Or is it those tantalizing accents?! I'll take accents for $500, Alex!
Meet 9 Failed Celeb Power Couples
Now that Forbes has released their list of the top celebrity power couples (according to the millions they earned from May 2010- May 2011), we can't hardly imagine who will take the top spot for 2012. In lieu of these couples' major success, though, we cannot help but stop and think about those celebrity pairs who had the potential to be a power couple--if their relationships actually would've lasted.
Signs That You're Playing Too Hard To Get
Ah, matters of the heart. Just when we think things are going to get easier, some complications come about and we're back to square one, trying to figure out where we went wrong. I truly believe that matters of the heart would seems way less complicated if we just let things happen naturally. Too bad I have a brain to go with this heart of mine, and I'm way too practical of a person to leave my love affairs up to chance.
Top 5 Hottest Athletes (and their bodies!)
To celebrate the onset of the football season, we're thanking the heavens above for returning to us the privilege of drooling over these beautiful football bodies. Hell, I can think of firm, chiseled bodies--I mean, men--that I'd love to just be in the presence of from practically every sport. Let me give you a run-down of my "type."
The Must-haves for a Middle Schools Dance
Ah, middle school dances. Remember those? Middle school was a time filled with girls who like boys but are taller than them and boys who like girls but are suffering through that awkward I might-be-going-through-puberty-soon stage. A time for "do you like me? check yes or no" notes, relentless bullying as a sign of flirtation, and teachers who are more in tuned with the adolescent gossip than the actual students are.
Celebrity Rehab: the Reality Kids' Stars
Now that Kate Plus 8 has FINALLY been cancelled, it's time for us reality show enthusiasts to push aside our constant indulging of these guilty pleasures for the sake of the children involved. There really is no reason why Kate Gosselin needed to drag the show on so much longer after her public, messy divorce and I'm sure it took quite the toll on the children emotionally.
Guess That Celebrity Wax Figure!
Sir Pitt isn't the only celeb who's been flat out debased by their own wax figure. Talk about tarnishing one's image! So, we at CollegeCandy have decided to compile the atrocities all into one place. Can you guess who that celebrity wax figure is? Kudos to whoever guesses them all correctly!
The 5 Most Surprising College Freshman Essentials
When I was a college freshman, there were a few things that no one seemed to mention before I left for school. You know, like the fact that freshman dorms tend to be the width of my arm span, or that there would be ZERO privacy with the communal bathrooms and the roommate whose bed is literally an arm's length away from mine.
7 Ingredients for a (Ranked) Party School!
The Princeton Review recently published their rankings for the top 20 party schools in the U.S. Lots of the schools chosen also made the lists for other rankings such as "lots of beer" "jock schools" and "lots of hard liquor." We at College Candy decided that those ingredients listed are obvious, but they aren't detailed enough to create the best party schools.
Relationship Guide: 10 Red Flags Every Girl Ignores
As we all know by now, communication is key to both progress and success, so talking about these things now will only help better your relationship in the long run. But what about those things that we don't see? The tell-tale signs that your relationship is taking a turn for the worse, that for some reason you haven't seemed to notice?
Fun Facts about New Moon as we Wait for Breaking Dawn: Part 1
As we eagerly await the third installment to the Twilight saga, "Breaking Dawn: Part 1," we cannot help but look back at where we've come so far on this blood sucking journey. At this point, all you #TeamEdward and #TeamJacob fans probably know all there is to know about the storyline and all of its characters. And the Breaking Dawn trailer has given us just a mere taste of what's to come in the next movie.
Is Kate Middleton Responsible for The World's Body Image Issues?
Ever since Kate Middleton stepped into the public eye, there has been much scrutiny surrounding her weight. The 5 foot 10 in. tall duchess is rumored to weight in at just under 100 lbs which, according to her BMI of 14.35, is seriously underweight. (Anything under 18.5 for women is considered underweight.) Now, once again, everyone is worried about young girls and how they're going to respond to Kate Middleton's body.

Reconceptualizing a Digital Feminist Platform
By Sophia Seawell
Sophia and Ann are co-Editors-in-Chief of bluestockings magazine, a multimedia feminist publication based on Brown's campus. For our final project, we decided to re-design our online platform, bluestockingsmag.com. Bluestockings was founded in 2012 and released its first print publication in December of that year. The blog has been active since November 2012 and for the past year has published new content nearly daily.
Bluestockings' mission is to provide a platform for visual and written work related to issues and experiences of gender, sexuality, race, class, ability and other identities and, more broadly, to create a community, both at Brown and dispersed around the globe, of individuals and organizations invested in engaging with contemporary feminism and identity related issues through a feminist lens.
Before the start of this semester, bluestockings management staff was discussing a blog redesign, but the designer we were interested in working with did not have the time to take on the project. We value having the option to publish vastly more voices and pieces on the blog than we can in print, and it is important to us to invest in making the blog representative of the work that it was doing within our publishing platforms. It is, after all, the way that most readers and writers interact with bluestockings — the blog has over a thousand views on an average day.
We wanted to make changes to the platform to bring it more in line with the goals of the publication and our mission statement. The blog is currently fairly conservative and traditional in its presentation. There is a slideshow at the top of the page with most recent posts, and a single column of chronologically organized posts underneath that. On the home page there are also links to different category sections in a top menu bar, a sidebar with descriptions of bluestockings and its mission, a tag cloud, etc. While it certainly presents itself as an editorial platform, but there is nothing innovative or particularly engaging about it.
Our project, then, was to make specific and intentional changes that would bring the blog more in line with the vision of the publication as a whole, paying particular attention to the way that content and authors are showcased on the site.
Choosing and Prioritizing Changes
As bluestockings management, we often have conversations around questions of medium specificity, materiality, and the affordances and constraints of different media. We are drawn to the ideas of collage, bricolage, patchwork, layering, overlap, and amalgamation as creative and artistic practices which specifically inform and are informed by our feminist politics.
With these motivations in mind, our first concern was to address the way that posts appear on the front page of the blog. We wanted to move away from the clean minimalist aesthetic that predominates most online publishing spaces. While we want to create an interface that highlights and foregrounds our content, we do not believe that that necessarily means that words have to appear on blank white pages in blocky San Serif fonts. Instead of having a white background we hand-made a collage, which we scanned into Illustrator and patchworked together as a new background for our blog. This collage brings in the trace of the human in the digital space, as something hand-made, which retains the traces of that material history.
Another way we hope to make the people behind the blog more visible is by highlighting authors and having their names appear on the first page of the blog, along with the title and featured image of the post, and not only at the bottom of the post once it has been clicked and read. Without these contributors, having a digital platform would be meaningless, and we want that blog's interface to reflect that.
Our current blog displays posts in a chronological timeline, moving from the most recent to older posts as you scroll down the page. We wanted to make a menu giving users the option of organizing posts by "Latest," "Popular," and "Random," in order to build into the interface not only standard ways of displaying content, as most recent or most viewed, but also to open up the potential for unintended connections to be produced, for the accidental and contingent to produce new and unplanned bridges between pieces.
We also cleaned up the sidebar, putting most of the menu items in the dropdown main menu, replacing the categories menu with the simple "Home," "About," and "Print Archives." We did these to minimize the amount of distracting text on the page—'interactive' shouldn't mean having an overwhelming amount of things to click—to focus on the content. We want to give the words a space to produce impact, not overwhelm them with less essential material.
Our vision of the redesign also included making more space for non-written content. Currently the majority of the content on the blog is text, often embedded with images and sometimes with videos. In our print magazine we have an art section, and the fact that this isn't yet represented on the blog reflects a perpetuation of a hierarchy of written over visual expression. We also want the blog to feature an audio player that could either have a playlist of music, making a visit to the blog a more immersive experience and also providing an opportunity to highlight underrepresented artists, or showcase audio content from interviews. bluestockings staff conduct a good amount of interviews, which have in the past always been transcribed, but offering them as podcasts presents a different way of engaging with the material.
What does it mean for a digital space to be feminist?
With this project, we wanted to think through how a print publication and an online platform can be in conversation with one another and how to recognize and address the strengths and weaknesses of each platform respectively. That is, what are the differences between 'virtual' and 'material' when it comes the presentation of written text? How does the status of the written word on a digital platform like a blog change in the translation from print? What does it mean for pieces which were intended for the relatively static and stable print platform to be translated to another interface? What are the digital possibilities that we are ignoring by primarily utilizing the blog as a space for writing? What can a blog do to execute the bluestockings mission that the print magazine can't?
But we also wanted to consider and take into account the limitations of or specific ideological conflicts with our mission produced by digital platforms. Especially since we maintain our dedication to producing new content daily. How can we trouble the neoliberal logics which drive the constant production of new content on the digital?
In terms of the amount of content we can publish online versus in print, we were thinking about how we can design the interface of our digital platform represent a unity (bluestockings) within difference (the many contributors and editors who work on the magazine)? How can we represent the diverse positions and opinions of our staff and writers while maintaining the unity of the bluestockings name?
Thus the audience of this project is bluestockings editorial staff and writers, who we hope to highlight more, but also our readers. We envision the redesigned bluestockings blog as a more interactive and engaging space that is not so narrowly defined by a linear conception of time (blog posts are arranged chronologically in a single column) or categories (such as 'culture,' 'politics,' etc at the top), but rather a place for exploration. And finally, we want to make bluestockings friendly and accessible to readers who are not familiar with the publication, and who might be encountering for the first time the topics that we cover. Particularly due to the stigma that unfortunately still surrounds feminism, we hope that this will be an online space that people of all levels of familiarity with feminist issues will want to return to.
Disruptions and Interventions
Our project is necessary and relevant in the current moment of the move away from print and towards websites and blogs for the publication and spread of written works. For example, bluestockings must consider the increasing amount of people who will visit the blog on a tablet or other mobile device. While responsive design was outside of our limitations for this specific project, our vision is to recognize the blog for what it is—an online platform—and play to the strengths of what it could be by increasing its accessibility and interactiveness.
We hope that the blog will become a space in which new and old content encounters one another. We think that just because a piece was posted months (or even years) ago, that does not mean that it is no longer relevant, or cannot contribute to conversations that are happening now. This emphasis on moving forward and constantly creating new news is an imperative of competitive neoliberal capitalism. So, while we will continue to post new content daily, since we stand behind the writers and voices on our platform and believe that they contribute necessary positions to a conversation about contemporary feminism, we want to be less beholden to the chronological presentation format, especially the single column. By reorganizing content into multiple columns, with various algorithms for their organization, we allow for time to recede in importance, to be subsumed instead in such classifications as "Random," and "Popular."
The move away from a single column also disrupts the underlying logic that all pieces come from a single source and represent a single unified voice or position. Instead, multiple columns represent immediately the conversations happening between pieces, and the multiple positions represented on the blog. Another way to highlight the multivocality of the bluestockings conversation is by highlighting author's names and bios, and attributing the editors of pieces.
This raises another vital question for bluestockings: Who 'is' bluestockings? How do we represent a diverse community of writers, artists, and editors under a single name? There is no single person who represents bluestockings. We think of bluestockings as an umbrella term, bringing together many different positions and opinions. However, we are aware of and want to make sure that, within the unity and standardization of bluestockings' platforms, we are not imposing a single voice on pieces. The medium of a blog allows us to productively bring together difference, a potential which we feel has not yet been fully explored. By giving writers' voices more space to stand together with their singular works, and by giving editors more autonomy to curate content, we hope to more accurately represent the multivocality of bluestockings' community.
Failures as Possibilities
As we worked on this project, we found that we had extremely limited options for customization on Wordpress.com (our current hosting platform), and soon realized we needed to transition to using Wordpress.org in order to be able to make most of the changes we envisioned.
We tried and were unable to install Wordpress.org ourselves, and instead found ourselves navigating a hosting site, ASmallOrange.com (which still involved a substantial amount of assumed background experience and comfort with web design). Because neither of us have this prerequisite knoweldge, even once we gained access to a redesign site on Wordpress.org hosted through ASmallOrange.com, it was an intense learning curve in terms of being able to successfully make intended changes the code, identify obstacles, fix errors, etc.
Due to our limited experience with web design and time constraints, we were not able to fulfill the following goals, but have plans for bluestockings to continue working with a more experienced web designer who can finish this project in the near future:
Find a way to showcase art, possibly through some kind of slideshow at the top, in order to resist the hierarchy of written over visual expression
Create a menu that would allow content to be organized by popular/latest/random rather than organizing posts in a linear way; these choices facilitate different modes of engaging with our content, and different experiences of the content, in terms of timeliness, or by the unexpected juxtapositions created by the "random."
More prominently display author's names on posts without making authors through the wordpress blog. Although it makes sense to have author pages for regular contributors, we do have a lot of one-time submissions. It would also be hard / impossible at this point to go back and retroactively make contributors page authors, but this is something that is worth considering for in the future.
Have each post (the image, title and excerpt) turn blue when the user hovers over it; this will make the experience of navigating the site more interactive and present posts as more cohesive than they would be when only the title is hyperlinked.
Increase the visibility of our other social media pages
Embed an audio player to allow for
Interviews in audio (rather than transcribed) format to offer different ways to engage with the material other than reading! This also allows for multitasking for people who are unable to or have difficulty sitting and/or reading for extended amounts of time
Music for a more immersive experience and to highlight underrepresented artists (eg queer rap/hip-hop artists)
Reflections and Recommendations
What was surprising is that we did not learn or need to learn as much CSS as we thought we would.
We learned that wordpress.com is not the same as wordpress.org, what the differences are, and more broadly, that familiarity with the specific platform one is working with is key and gaining that familiarity can be more immediately efficient than trying to learn 'everything' form the ground up (though this would certainly be necssary if we were to continue with this project).
We would advise people doing this project to know early what the affordances of their platform are so that they can figure out if they can complete the project they propose—to be specific, we thought that a wordpress.com site had the affordances of wordpress.org, which meant that we were expecting to be able to do more than we could and had to spend a lot of time figuring out how to get to a reasonable starting place to do the rest of the work we intended.
We also learned a lot about the specific steps that one needs to go through to get a website off the ground and onto the internet! Doing it ourselves was a lot harder (obviously) than just choosing a few things in wordpress.com and going with it. However, the payoff then is the amount of control that we're able to have over the specifics of the site (as long as we can figure out how to make a code for what we want to have happen!). But, more concretely, the process of going from a standard all-in-one platform, to a site that we had to figure out how and where to host, whose servers to use, how to transfer our domain name, the process of making a subdomain, etc. All of these really small steps, we not only learned need to be done but also how to do (mostly)!
Ultimately, while we were not able to complete all the steps that would have transitioned the current, live blog to our vision as represented in our mock-ups, we have created both a plan and the space for someone more familiar with CSS, Wordpress and/or web design to finish what we started. Having visual aids as well as a thorough outline of our goals and the platform on which to realize those goals already established and paid for means that we have taken the crucial first steps in reconceptualizing and redesigning bluestockings.

Q: C++ class template inheritance puzzle What's wrong with this code? gcc 4.6.1 is complaining "'foo' was not declared in this scope" in baz(). If I transform the code so that one of the templates is just a regular class, the problem goes away.
struct Foo {
    char foo;
};

template<int N>
struct Bar : public Foo
{
    Bar() { foo; }
};

template<int N>
struct Baz : public Bar<N>
{
    void baz() { foo; }
};

int main() {
    Baz<10> f;
    return 0;
}

A: What is wrong, according to the specifications, I don't know, but you may make your code to compile by using:
void baz() { Bar<N>::foo; }

A: foo is a dependent name; that is, it depends on the template parameter, so until the template is instantiated the compiler doesn't know what it is. You have to make it clear that it is a class member, either Bar<N>::foo or this->foo.
(You probably also want to do something with it; simply using it as the ignored value of an expression doesn't do anything at all).

Box around Christopher Columbus statue in Philly must be removed, court rules
Jesse Bunch
The Philadelphia Inquirer (TNS)
PHILADELPHIA — The plywood box enclosing the statue of Christopher Columbus in South Philadelphia's Marconi Park must be removed by the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court ruled Friday.
It's the latest development in the lengthy battle over the statue. It became a flash point and was covered with plywood amid racial justice protests in June 2020, following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Then the Historical Commission voted to remove the statue, and the legal fight began. Italian American groups have fought to preserve the statue.
According to Friday's ruling, the city of Philadelphia is directed to remove the plywood structure, reversing a 2021 decision that allowed the city to keep the box standing. Commonwealth President Judge Mary Hannah Leavitt handed down Friday's decision.

The city has sought the statue's removal during the two-year legal battle, with the group Friends of Marconi Plaza seeking to preserve it. Since October, the box has been painted green, white and red, the colors of the Italian flag.
"We are very disappointed in the court's ruling," said Kevin Lessard, a spokesperson for the city. "We continue to believe that the Christopher Columbus statue, which has been a source of controversy in Philadelphia, should be removed from its current position at Marconi Plaza."
The city is "working to comply" with the court's order, Lessard said, including the unboxing of the statue. However, the city will continue to review the ruling.
"While we will respect this decision, we will also continue to explore our options for a way forward that allows Philadelphians to celebrate their heritage and culture while respecting the histories and circumstances of everyone's different backgrounds," Lessard said.
George Bochetto, the attorney representing Friends of Marconi Plaza, said he was "delighted" with the court's order, calling it an "authoritative opinion on many, many levels."
"It really represents, almost a landmark decision, frankly," Bochetto said. "This is just so significant. And it's not just significant for the Columbus statue and Italian Americans, it's significant for every ethnic group in this country."
Rich Cedrone, president of Friends of Marconi Plaza, said he was "very pleased," describing the appeals process as a "long, hard battle."
"I just want to stress that we, as a group, felt we would do this the right way, go through all the legal processes," Cedrone said. "And I think we have."
Cedrone added, "This is America, and that's the way you do things."
Italian American groups have defended the statue as a symbol of their heritage, including its role in Columbus Day celebrations and the explorer's reputation for discovering America. However, historians say Columbus never set foot on the mainland United States, and have documented his enslavement and sexual abuse of Indigenous peoples.
Mabel Negrete, executive director of Indigenous Peoples' Day Philly Inc., said the statue's supporters are unaware of the harm that the figure causes, and that it misrepresents history.
"It's utterly insulting, to be honest," Negrete said, citing Columbus' involvement with colonialism and the removal of native peoples.
Of the reaction from the region's Indigenous community, Negrete said members were "fed up" with the controversy surrounding the statue.
"It's tiring, because we're talking about a community that is very in the minority," Negrete said. "Unfortunately, the Italian Americans that are pro-Columbus do not see the role they play, from the 1800s to this day, in the propaganda to remove Native Americans within the United States. This is a propaganda of proliferation within the country."
Should the city uncover the Broad Street Columbus, it will join the uncovered Columbus monument at Penn's Landing. In September 2021, chalkboard panels that had lined the base of the monument since 2020 were removed after a lawsuit. The boards, placed there by the Delaware River Waterfront Corp., were available for people to express themselves during the nation's reckoning on race and police violence. However, a group that constructed the monument — also represented by Bochetto — sued, and the two parties settled.
Philadelphia did succeed in removing a statue of former Philadelphia Mayor Frank Rizzo after it became a target amid the June 2020 protests against police brutality. The statue was stripped from its position across from City Hall overnight, with Mayor Jim Kenney citing Rizzo's "racism, bigotry, and police brutality for members of the Black community, (and) the LGBTQ community" as reasons for its removal.

German maritime authority approves new Nord Stream 2 timeframe
Oil dips as Russia needs time to mull more OPEC+ supply cuts
on: February 07, 2020 In: featured, Oil
*Brent, WTI.
New York — Oil prices edged lower on Friday as Russia said it needed more time before committing to output cuts sought by other large producers as the coronavirus outbreak fans worries about global crude demand.
Oil was on track for its fifth straight weekly decline, as speculators have backed away due to weaker consumption figures and expectations that the virus, which has killed more than 600 people, will remain a drag on demand.
Brent crude futures lost 30 cents to $54.63 a barrel by 1:41 p.m. EST(1841 GMT). Brent was headed for a 6% loss for the week. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures fell 44 cents to $50.51 a barrel, on track for a 2% weekly loss.
This week, a panel advising OPEC+, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies led by Russia, suggested provisionally cutting output by 600,000 barrels per day (bpd).
On Friday, Russia Energy Minister Alexander Novak said Moscow needed more time to assess the situation.
"Russia's lack of commitment thus far to such a deal is providing one additional bearish element that is currently precluding the complex from sustaining price advances," Jim Ritterbusch, president of Ritterbusch and Associates, said in a note.
Prices have fallen about a fifth since the outbreak of the virus in the city of Wuhan in China. The country is the world's biggest importer of crude, taking in roughly 10 million bpd in 2019.
Novak predicted global oil demand may fall by 150,000 to 200,000 barrels per day (bpd) in 2020 in part because of the virus.
The OPEC+ group this year deepened existing cuts to roughly 1.7 million bpd, nearly 2% of global demand, yet prices have remained in a narrow band. Producers in OPEC+ are scheduled to meet in Vienna on March 5-6, although the meeting could be brought forward because of concerns surrounding the virus.
Forecaster Eurasia Group said it estimates a contraction in oil demand in China of as much 3 million bpd in the first quarter from 2019 levels.
Sources have told Reuters that Chinese policymakers are preparing measures, including more fiscal spending and interest rate cuts, amid expectations the outbreak will have a devastating impact on first-quarter growth.

Your teeth are made of the most durable materials, making them among the strongest parts of your body. On the other hand, many factors, including unhealthy diet, highly affect the strength and durability of your teeth over time. Hence, your teeth become vulnerable to damage.
Once your teeth get damaged, finding a suitable treatment with your dentist is the first and best solution you can have. In doing so, you can keep your teeth from further destruction. Dental crowns and bridges are dental treatments that restore damaged teeth and prevent more harm.
Dental crowns are tooth-shaped restoration caps placed over and attached to your tooth. These tooth restoration treatments will cover the whole visible section of the affected teeth so as to restore their ideal form and function. Through proper care of the wearer, dental crowns can even last up to 10 years.
Dental crowns also enhance the appearances of your teeth. They are good alternatives to tooth whitening and other cosmetic dental options. Also, they serve as a support to some dental rehabilitation that you need to undergo. They are usually applied to hold a dental bridge as well.
What Dental Crowns can do?
Dental bridges are one of the dental procedures used in treating missing teeth, single or multiple. These restorative solutions are composed of two dental crowns with the false teeth in between them. They are then positioned on top of the teeth on either side of the gap.
Aside from filling the gap in your smile, dental bridges also prevent upcoming complications that occur due to your missing teeth. Through dental bridges, you do not need to hide your smile and limit your confidence anymore.
What Dental Bridges can do?

Q: How do I update the state to trigger render change in async promise callback? I'm seeing some behaviour that I don't understand, I have a helper class that accepts a reference to the parent, to be able to update the state:
let appUpdate = new AppUpdate(this);
appUpdate.getUpdate();

In this class there is a function that returns like so:
return Promise.all(updatePromises);

But the important part is I'm setting the state in the callback to each promise:
for(const promise of promises)
    {
        promise.then(() => {

            this.app.setState(prevState => ({progress: prevState.progress+1}));
        });
    }

I would expect this to update the state to increment progress by 1 whenever a promise is resolved, but instead what I am seeing is: I can output the progress and see it update in console but "prevState" is always undefined, it also doesn't update in the render function to trigger the progress bar update.
I'm wondering what might cause a difference in what is resolved in the render function and outputted in console log.
Full example:
class App extends Component {
    constructor() {
        super();

        this.state = {
            progress: 0,
        }

        let appUpdate = new AppUpdate(this);
        appUpdate.getUpdate().then(() => {
            console.log("Update successful");
        });
    }

    render()
    {
        // Correctly outputs progress
        console.log(this.state.progress);

        return (
            <View>

                <Text>
                    // Stays as 0 until just just before they all finish
                    { this.state.progress }
                </Text>

            </View>
        );
    }
}

class AppUpdate
{
    app = null;

    constructor(app)
    {
        this.app = app;
    }

    async getUpdate()
    {
        // At this point updatePromises is confirmed to be an array of around 100 promises
        let updatePromises = [];

        for(const promise of updatePromises)
        {
            promise.then(() => {

                // This outputs progress gradually incrementing until it reaches the last promise resolve, the same as in the main class
                console.log(this.app.state.progress);

                this.app.setState(prevState => ({progress: prevState.progress+1}));
            });
        }

        return Promise.all(updatePromises);
    }
}

Q: Set of Unit Ball's Extreme Points is not always closed I am trying to show that $\operatorname{Ext}B(X)$ does not have to be closed where $B(X)$ is closed unit ball of normed space $X$ and $\operatorname{Ext}B(X)$ is the set of extreme points of unit ball.
My definition for extreme point : $x \in S(X)$ is an extreme point of $B(X)$ if $x$ cannot be written as arithmetic mean of distinct elements of $B(X)$. ($S(X)$ is unit sphere)
I thought that $\Bbb R^n$ can be an example for this and I tried to use $\Bbb R^3$ but I could not find the proper sequence to show that $\operatorname{Ext}B(\Bbb R^3)$ is not closed. I really stuck.
I appreciate any help.
Thank you

A: Let $C=\operatorname{co} ((\pm 1, 0, \pm 1) \cup \{ (0,y,z)| y^2+z^2 = 1\})$.
The points $\{ (0,y,z)| y^2+z^2 = 1, |y| \neq 1\}$ are extreme, but the points
$(0,0,\pm 1)$ are not.
$C$ is convex, $0 \in C^\circ$ and $C=-C$. Then the Minkowski functional is a norm.

The Mystery of the Missing Man
SeriesThe Find-Outers
ChildrenFrom 6+From 9+Young AdultCrime
The Find-Outers is a brilliant mystery series from bestselling author Enid Blyton, perfect for fans of The Secret Seven. The Trottevilles have a house guest named Eunice, and Fatty will do anything to avoid her. While hiding from Eunice his disguise leads a mystery right to him: there's an escaped prisoner in Peterswood who is also a master of disguise. Now Fatty, Larry, Daisy, Pip and Bets have to find the man and avoid Eunice at the same time... In the original 1956 text, Fatty's nickname is based on the fact that his initials are F.A.T. as well as his size. All references to his size have been removed from this recording (based on the text from 2016) so that Fatty's nickname refers to his initials only.

At Wilberforce, the fine arts are an essential part of a reflective life. Our students learn to appreciate and create art in all its forms as they take each of these core curriculum classes.
We honor God as creator of all beauty and acknowledge ourselves to be creators in His image. As part of learning how to create art, students imitate classical artwork - its techniques, media, skills, and forms. Whether painting, sculpting, viewing, or studying art history, our students strive to achieve artistic excellence and to find a feast for mind and heart in creative expression.
Music is a gift from God, and a way to praise God. The goal of our music instruction is for our students to appreciate and create beautiful music. Students discover the joys of choral performance, musical composition, and music history. From Kodaly solfege to ensemble presentations, from Gregorian chant to musical theatre, from folk songs to guitar chords, our students learn to listen, analyze, perform, and compose.
The fine arts are an essential part of a reflective life, and drama allows students to put themselves into other times and situations, to understand motives and assess reactions. Drama also provides great opportunities for building community, problem solving, meeting deadlines, developing skills in speaking, costume design, set making, technology, and marketing. Starting with skits and antiphonal recitations, moving through short plays in Lower School, presenting musicals which include both Middle and Upper School students, Class Seven Shakepearience and Class Eight declamations, and culminating with the plays our Junior and Senior classes perform each year—drama is essential to the Wilberforce education.
In December 2018, the Dramatic Theatre students of Class 11 will present Shakespeare's Hamlet. The spring 2019 musical is Fiddler On The Roof. In May 2019, our graduating senior will present Thornton Wilder's Our Town.

Interact spreading holiday cheer
Charis Franks
Charis Franks, Staff Writer
C-G's Interact club is making Christmas a little bit merrier for a lot of people through their holiday outreach programs.
They have collected more than 200 coats, hats and gloves for families in need, mailed 120 letters to soldiers overseas and collected bags of food for the local food pantry, but their biggest project is still in progress.
For years, C-G has participated in Letters to Santa, a program that helps the Christmas wishes of underprivileged children come true.
About six years ago, Interact got 25 "Letters to Santa" written by kids at low-income elementary schools in the Chicago area. Students could pick up a letter, purchase the gift that its writer wished for, and bring it back to school to be delivered to that child.
"It was a program I had known was going on on a small scale," Interact adviser Mr. Kelly said, "and I thought it was something the kids and the community would relish."
He was right. Each year, the amount of letters answered nearly doubled until the school was collecting 700 to 800 gifts each year. If each gift is approximately $25, the school donates an average of almost $20,000 worth of gifts for kids in need.
This year will be no different, as the club is shooting for the same goal of 700-800 letters.
"We never want to disappoint a kid," Mr. Kelly said. "We've always come through for them."
The amount of students pouring into the front office Monday morning with gifts in hand really shows how much of a difference a group of high school students can make in the lives of many boys and girls this Christmas.
As Mr. Kelly said, "It's pretty majestic!"

Home / Collections / Tallulah Bankhead 11 oz. Natural Soy Candle
Tallulah Bankhead 11 oz. Natural Soy Candle
by Mobile Bay Shop
"She is the glamorous life of the roaring party who breaks all the norms and lives for the moment. Clothing optional."
Scent: Wild Honeysuckle - A blend of lily and sage is twisted with tangy tones of sweet amber and crisp orange flower.
Every candle is hand-poured, made from all natural and renewable soybean wax with 100% cotton wicks.
ABOUT TALLULAH
Tallulah Bankhead was the daughter of a prominent Alabama Congressman and later Speaker of the House, from an aristocratic family, although without much money. Her mother died from complications after giving birth to Tallulah, and her father fell into a state of depression and alcoholism from which it took him years to recover. Tallulah and her older sister were mostly raised by their grandparents until they could contain the willful girls no longer, and the sisters were sent to a strict convent school. The nuns didn't have much luck guiding the girls' decorum either, and by age fifteen Tallulah was on her way to the New York stage.
Bankhead is regarded as one of the great stage actresses of the 20th century, finding success in London's East End and on Broadway, as well as radio. During her career, she found moderate success in film, with a role in Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat as her most critically acclaimed. Tallulah is remembered, however, more for her uninhibited personality, witticisms and outrageous commentary, and risqué sex life than for her body of work. She was said to smoke 120 cigarettes a day, which must have contributed to her famously husky voice, and battled alcoholism throughout her life. She would get naked at private parties and had a list of affairs too numerous to mention. She was openly bisexual, being quoted as saying "My father warned me about men and booze; he never said anything about women and cocaine." The media loved her, and sometimes raked her over the coals, but she always fought back with racy quips or hilarious digs. She said that she "lived for the moment."
She died in Manhattan at the age of 66 from complications of pneumonia, flu and emphysema. Her last coherent words reportedly were a request for "codeine and bourbon." For her contribution to the motion picture industry, Bankhead has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. She was inducted into the American Theater Hall of Fame in 1972, and the Alabama Women's Hall of Fame in 1981. During her career, Bankhead amassed nearly 300 film, stage, television and radio roles. While other "first ladies" of the stage and screen have been forgotten from the collective memory through the years, Tallulah's personality lives on and her star never dims.

Lessons from the French
London Bridge Station. Image by Jean Marchant, 1845. © RIBA Library Drawings and Archives Collections
Thomas Ruddy, now 23, set out from London Bridge Station in October 1865 to study French methods of horticulture. He does not describe in his journal how the arrangements were made with the Nursery of M. André Leroy in Angers, France. The plans were obviously well organised, as Thomas appears to have been assured in his travel arrangements, stopping in Paris for two nights before continuing by train to Angers. He even had the address of a Nursery in Paris which he visited on his way to Angers.
He soon found that his French lessons from a book at Minto House garden bothy were not sufficient to get by when it came to practical conversation. Help came from an unlikely source:
On getting into the harbour of Dieppe we for the first time found ourselves in a strange land; the language seemed to change so suddenly that we felt quite helpless. The little knowledge I had of it was from books, so that I did not understand the strange sounds. We were standing near an aged lady before stepping onto French soil, talking about our helplessness; this lady turned to us and offered to help us in any way. The lady was a native of Peru, spoke French and English well; she was a governess on her way to join an English family in Paris. This lady was of great assistance to us all the way to Paris.
By the time he left France 8 months later, Thomas had acquired enough French to be the assistant himself:
I was sea sick on the voyage, but all right and active when I got to Newhaven. I had the company of a French man to London, who was going to see a little daughter of his, who was at an English school. At Lewes, while waiting for another train I had to be his interpreter in getting coffee, and at London I sent him off all right. He was thankful to me.
For Thomas' full account of his time in France, see here. An edited account of his horticultural studies is here.

1865 A Year of Transitions
Image via archiseek.com
Thomas was 23 on the 6th January 1865. The day before his birthday, his father had died in Jedburgh in the south east of Scotland. Thomas at the time was coming to the end of a two year period working as a journeyman gardener on an estate in the Isle of Man. Previously to that he had served a three year apprenticeship at Minto house close to his home in Jedburgh, sampled life as a gardener at two other Scottish estates and for a short time worked at an Edinburgh nursery.
1865 was to be the year when Thomas' growing skills as a landscape gardener and a potential head gardener were recognised. At a time of great activity and development in gardening, especially in the larger estates and great houses, Thomas was to recognise that he was potentially a gardening 'hot property' and could pick and choose his work situations, moving ever closer, and at an exceptionally young age, towards the coveted post of Head Gardener.
Despite being offered such a post, towards the end of the year Thomas made an intriguing and decisive decision which would take him beyond the shores of the British Isles. Read the full story here.
Author wendcareyPosted on January 24, 2016 March 1, 2016 Categories 1861-68, Diary, Gardening, Thomas Ruddy BiographyLeave a comment on 1865 A Year of Transitions
I have been tracing the gardening situations that Thomas had from his initial entry as an apprentice at Minto House in 1858 until his employment as Head Gardener at Palé Hall in January 1869.
November 11.1858 – November 11 1861 Apprenticeship at Minto
November 11.1861 – November 11 1862 Gilmerton House, Athelstaneford, East Lothian see here
November 13.1862 – December 1862 Rossdhu House, Luss, Dunbartonshire see here and for Clan Colquhoun here
January 12.1863 – February 1863 Pink Hill Nursery Corstorphine, Edinburgh I can't find a direct reference to a nursery here, that will probably necessitate research at the RHS Lindley Library, but the Forestry Commission Scotland has its HQ in Corstorphine in the Pink Hill area.
February 1863 – March 6.1865 The Nunnery, Douglas, Isle of Man, see here for a picture and here for further description. In Edinburgh Thomas was offered a choice of two posts, the Nunnery and Lambeth Palace in London:
I had the offer of two situations the same day, one was to go to be journeyman at Lambeth Palace London, which I declined; the other to go to the Isle of Man in a place where I was to get the foreman's place when he left, this I accepted.
March 7. 1865 -27th March 1865 In Chester using Mr. Dickson of Newton Nursery as an intermediary for obtaining a new post. An interesting description of the history of Dickson's nursery can be found here. At this time, when many large estates were being built or refurbished, well-qualified gardeners were much sought after, and large Nurseries appear to have been used as agencies for gardeners.
March 27. 1865- May 6.1865 Titley Court Herefordshire See here for description and here for Greenly family history.
May 6.1865 – June 2.1865 at home in Jedburgh June 3.1865- July 7 1865 at Chester
July 7.1865 – August 14.1865 The Barns, Sunderland I have not found any direct reference to this house, except this Wikipedia article
August 14.1865 – October 16. 1865 Laing's Nursery, Stanstead Park, Forest Hill, London

Minto Gardens – an apprenticeship for life.
Image from http://www.albion-prints.com Victorian gardeners had a great fondness for ferns.
The description Thomas gives of his three year apprenticeship in the gardens of Minto House shows how early in his life the pattern was laid down of the man he was to become.
You can read the full diary entry here
There are three 'mentor figures' mentioned; the Head Gardener Mr Williamson, the Revd. James Duncan and Adam Mathieson, who was the custodian of the museum in Jedburgh, and whose enthusiasm for geology led Thomas to his lifelong interest. As he moved from place to place in his gardening career, Thomas constantly sought out people whose knowledge he could draw on. In his final post at Palé it led to his friendship with William Pamplin and to his second marriage and family.
Also demonstrated is his naturally studious nature. He had obviously studied the Linnaean system of plant names and learned to recognise plants in order to discuss them with experts and confidently seek out rare species.
Finally, there is his habit of becoming trusted by his employers or senior colleagues to mix with their families. From being trusted to escort Mr. Williamson's amiable daughters, he moves on to considerable trust and intimacy with the Robertson family of Palé. He is also sometimes a bit of a prig!
Don't expect ever to read of Thomas undertaking any day-to-day gardening tasks. All of that is taken for granted throughout the diary. He doesn't expect anyone to be interested that he planted a row of cabbages or a rose bush!

A Gardening Apprenticeship at Minto House
Minto House 1910, www.maxwellancestry.com via http://www.flickr.com
Thomas began his gardening apprenticeship at Minto House in November 1858. As was usual at the time, he lived in the 'bothy' in the gardens – perhaps not as grand as the one at the National Trust's Calke Abbey – see here.
Life in the gardens would have been hard, under the direction of the Head Gardener, but I was amazed to find out what went on after the day's work was finished. Here is Thomas' description:
November came and I went to the garden on the 11th of the month to live in a "bothy" with other four companions; luckily these were sober and intelligent. …. During the long winter evenings, all of us instructed ourselves in geometry, mensuration, and in languages. My companions were Oliver Taylor, who used to read aloud to us when resting from study; he was a well instructed man and a distinct reader. Andrew Stormont was studying French, James Stables was studying Latin, and Wm. Nichols was like myself, studying botany and geometry. I took also to French and Italian. Our "bothy" was during the winter evenings more like a school than anything else.
You cannot now visit Minto House, as it was destroyed very unfortunately during 1992. Read about this incident here

It is not clear how Thomas and his parents, Thomas and Ann Ruddy, sister Annie and brother James arrived in Jedburgh either directly or indirectly from County Mayo in Ireland. Most refugees from the potato famine arrived initially in Liverpool. Nor is it certain when they moved from Ireland to Scotland; probably some time between 1845 and 1851.
What is most significant is the extent of Thomas's educational achievement. Both his father and elder brother James are listed as labourers in the Scottish censuses, and when Thomas senior died in 1865, James registered his death using a cross rather than a signature, suggesting he could not write.
In Jedburgh, Thomas came into contact with several influential mentors who influenced the course of his life, the first being a retired gardener and amateur botanist, William Hobkirk. He met Hobkirk in 1858, in the interval between his decision to become gardener and taking up his gardening apprenticeship. Read Thomas' diary entry here

To Become a Gentleman
How did a young man from a poor family become a well-known and much consulted Head Gardener to a self-made industrialist, a friend and colleague of a leading Cambridge Professor, and the recipient of a prestigious Scientific medal?
From the outset, Thomas showed a focussed determination to make good. Here is an extract from the early pages of the first diary, written regarding the year 1858, but probably written retrospectively some years later:
(p4a) The time came at last that I must take to some occupation – various occupations were thought of, but I did not fancy them because they were to be in shops – these did not suit my fancy, for I loved the open air, I loved natural objects, I loved to see Nature. At last the time came for me – my father had a friend named Robert Daniel; he was a stranger there, and I now believe he must have been Welsh. He was a woodman, and a very intelligent man – (5) a man who had travelled a great deal, so that he surprised his neighbours by his general knowledge. This man gave my father glowing accounts of gardeners, and how he knew of many and that he was nearly being one himself in his day, but that he foolishly let a companion of his go in his place – how that companion went to the garden, served his time, pushed up and in a few years after came to see him with the 'air and address of a gentleman'. He ended by strongly advising me to be a gardener.

2018 ISP Participation Breaks Records
Emanne Khan '19
The numbers say it all: when the ISP program was conceived by Bruce Berk and Sandy Townsend in 1985 as an opportunity for seniors to explore life outside of school before graduating, less than half of the senior class took part. This trend continued up until 2016, when the numbers began to skyrocket. And now, thanks to years of hard work, planning, outreach, and networking by the ISP Committee, over 90% of the class of 2018 took advantage of the program and spent their final six weeks of high school exploring their various interests beyond the classroom.
Before participating, seniors must undergo a rigorous process beginning in the winter to determine their eligibility and logistics for their project. Multiple applications, meetings with the ISP Committee, scheduling, and the student's academic standing are all considered during the planning process. Nevertheless, the hard work is necessary to ensure a productive and enjoyable experience for all involved.
This year's projects reflected the diversity in passion of the graduating class, cultivated by their time at DS and their time spent outside as well. Representative of their trademark creativity, there was a strong focus on student art: Jakov Schwartzberg and Ben Wickett put on a production of the two-man play "Red" by John Logan; Brenna Conway wrote, directed, and choreographed her very own dance-centered show entitled "Rootless"; and Crystal Xie, Megan Farr, and Andrew Lombardozzi worked to produce a unique garment and curate the fashion and art publication "Alt Magazine." Other students explored the world of nonprofits and social justice: Henna Malik spent her 6 weeks at the New Hampshire ACLU, planning and coordinating a rally to uplift youth minorities; Gracie Mikol and Grace Feigl worked at Gracie's nonprofit Fueled by Kids to fight against food insecurity amongst Manchester children; and Bella Hoang and Caleb Richmond interned at the Kent Street Coalition, a grassroots organization working to promote justice and equality.
Despite the differences in each of their endeavors, all of the participating seniors gathered in the first ever "ISPalooza" on June 7 to showcase their work for the community. Performances were held, presentations were given, and all who attended left inspired and hopeful for a future pioneered by these incredibly hard-working and passionate young people.

Beyond Labor Day: 3 Ways Unions Have Helped American Workers
BY PETER COLE
Bumper stickers aren't known for being the most trustworthy sources of historical fact, but the one that proclaims that weekends are "brought to you by the labor movement" gets it exactly right. If anything, it doesn't go far enough.
Indeed, employers and elected leaders did not implement the five-day workweek out of the goodness of their hearts. Rather, workers and their unions agitated lobbied, organized, struck and voted for decades to achieve these gains. As Frederick Douglass, the legendary African American activist, once declared: "Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will."
Keyboards are overrated.
Cursive is back and it's making us smarter
By Ephrat Livni
The proliferation of devices in daily life has led to an international handwriting crisis. Teachers, parents, and politicians around the world are debating why they should bother spending time teaching what some say is a dated skill. Accustomed as we are to speedy, wifi-connected devices, we've come to prize the efficiency of typing and there seems to be no point to picking up a pen and scribbling on paper when keyboarding is so convenient, neat, and easy to copy-and-send.
Yet print and its squiggly cousin cursive are making a comeback in some US schools after scientific studies have proven their cognitive utility and because parents are clamoring for the preservation of the practical skill. For example, starting this fall in Louisiana, third to 12th graders will again study penmanship after a law was passed making it a requirement in 2016 (teachers got one year to prepare). Fourteen states in total are now including cursive in curricula after a decade where it seemed doomed to become an abandoned and outdated art.

Employees at Amazon's New NYC Warehouse Launch Union Push
A committee of employees at Amazon's recently opened Staten Island fulfillment center is going public with a unionization campaign, a fresh challenge to the e-commerce giant in a city where it plans to build a major new campus.
Labor unrest is the latest complication in Amazon's plan to invest $2.5 billion and hire 25,000 people in the city over the next 15 years. Several New York City politicians who were shut out of negotiations handled by the governor and mayor have raised objections to a new office park in Queens that threatens to overload mass transit and drive up rents in an already expensive housing market.
Now workers in a another borough are saying the company treats them like robots and should be focused on improving conditions there rather than raking in tax breaks to build a new headquarters. READ MORE

Why Teacher's Aides Deserve Our Appreciation Every Single Day
By Megan Glosson Apr 4, 2018
Paraprofessional, Instructional Assistant, Teacher's Aide, Educational Assistant… these wonderful people go by many names. When we read these titles, however, we may not really understand what their jobs entail. After almost 10 years in education, though, I think I can sum up a parapro's job description in one word: superhero.
Every day, I watch these people do amazing things. I watch them stand and greet studentsas they enter our gym or cafeteria, providing smiles and hugs for each one. I see them follow schedules even more complicated than mine, moving between grade levels and never missing a beat. I watch them wrestle with copy machines and spend hours cutting out laminated items. I hear them out in the hallways, working with that one child who still can't read sight words or add two-digit numbers. I even have watched them take verbal or physical assault from the student they have been assigned to help because music class is too much. They are vital to all of the education initiatives that we've come to embrace over the years, like "Title," "Response to Intervention," "Special Education."
We ask these amazing people to do so much, to give so much of themselves. We ask them to jump through hoops like certification testing and after-hours trainings, and we expect them to do anything and everything within the buildings in which they work. If you think that teachers are underpaid (which, let's be real, we are), let me tell you who is really underpaid: paraprofessionals. They make a fraction of what teachers do, yet they are asked to do so much more than they are paid for.
Oftentimes, only students recognize paraprofessionals for all that they do, but everyone should understand and appreciate how important paraprofessionals are in the field of education. These amazing men and women are some of the strongest connections our students with extensive needs make within the building. If you are involved in education in any way, as a parent, an employee or even a community member who cares, try to take a moment to thank a paraprofessional. They deserve our appreciation, not just one day a year, but every day.
Missouri Blocks Right-To-Work Law
August 8, 20181:53 AM ET
SCOTT NEUMAN
The rejection of Proposition A effectively kills the right-to-work law passed Missouri's Republican Legislature in 2017.
Charlie Riedel/AP
Voters in Missouri have overwhelmingly rejected a right-to-work law passed by the state's Republican-controlled Legislature that would have banned compulsory union fees — a resounding victory for organized labor that spent millions of dollars to defeat the measure.
With about 98 percent of the precincts reporting, the "no" vote on Missouri's Proposition A, which supported the law, was running about 67 percent, with nearly 33 percent voting "yes."
In 2017, the right-to-work law passed Missouri's Republican Legislature and was signed by then-Gov. Eric Greitens. However, union organizers gathered enough signatures to keep it from going into effect pending the results of a statewide referendum. The rejection of Proposition A effectively kills the law.
NY teacher evaluations could be decoupled from test scores
ALBANY - A push to decouple New York's teacher-evaluation system from students' scores on standardized tests is gaining momentum at the state Capitol. Lawmakers in both houses of the Legislature introduced bills this week that would drop a requirement that school districts use the grade 3-8 math and English exams from being used to rate teachers and principals. The issue has long been a sticking point for the powerful New York State United Teachers union, which has thrown its support behind the bill and is hoping to convince lawmakers to act on it before the state's legislative session ends in mid-June.

I know I should be wrapping up all the 9th Wonder-Related Stuff before I start making other Hip Hop posts but I feel that this album is more appropriate to put up right now since I've been so much of a procrastinator of late. Grade Aplus and his self-proclaimed "Quality Slacker Hip Hop" hail from Bellwood, IL which is also home to the legendary (and HIGHLY under-appreciated) rappers of the now defunct group Rubberoom. Grade makes unorthodox, braggadocio, self-deprecating, mainstream-tinged underground Hip Hop that couples a sense of humor with a serious approach. Much like his fellow 'Woods native SHOW, Grade Aplus is able to inject some fun into his music without making it too frivolous as he tackles subjects such as video games, cartoons and junk food. What more could a slacker ask for? Don't let the genre tag fool you though, this kid definitely has the drive (and the skills) to go somewhere, and his music is highly infectious and highly recommended.

Don't Be a D**K: Five Ways to Deal With Celebrity Deaths
By Glenn Dunks | September 29, 2014 | Add a Comment
When I attended this year's Sundance Film Festival, I skipped a movie called God's Pocket predominantly because I needed sleep, but also because it starred Philip Seymour Hoffman. Later that day while waiting in line for another film, a fellow film critic asked if I had seen the aforementioned movie, to which I replied "Pfft, no! I don't like Phillip Seymour Hoffman." Several days later, the news came out saying he had died. Well, damn, didn't I feel like a prick? It seems more high-profile, beloved celebrities have died this year than before – or maybe the Internet's never-ending news cycle is just meaning we get more and more coverage of it – so here are some handy hints to not be a dick when talking about it with fans who are legitimately overwhelmed or upset.
Try Not Being a Dick
Look, this one's pretty self-explanatory. Unless you're in like-minded company, don't immediately start spouting off about how you were "never a fan" or that "they were never that good anyway." You will come off looking like a Grade-A douchebag who enjoys dancing on peoples' graves. Just don't do it. As you mother would tell you, if you don't have something nice to say, shut your god-damned trap!
Stop Grand-standing Your Sadness
Or as I like to call it: grand-saddening. If you were a fan of that person then I feel bad for you, but don't act like your grief over somebody who you didn't personally know is any more important than somebody else's grief. And for the love of God, don't make it all about you with declarations of "but I was their biggest fan!" It's far too easy in this day and age where people's most inane thoughts can be projected out into the universe – especially if you are what's known as an "online celebrity" who is given far too much agency to write about themselves and their inflamed ego – to make everything about you, but if you're starting a sentence with "When I was a heroin addict…" or "when I was diagnosed with depression," then stop, drop and shut up immediately.
Don't Turn Your Two Cents into Two Dollars
Oh, you have opinions? Great! But keep them to yourself, you noob. You think it was selfish for somebody to accidentally overdose on heroin and leave families behind? You think it's cowardly to commit suicide when confronted with a genuine perception of the end of the world? You think that just because somebody has fame and riches that drugs and mental diseases don't affect them as badly? Chirping into conversations with such wise pearls of wisdom like these does nothing but make people feel worse and agitated while proving that these issues cross class and socioeconomic boundaries as well as race, gender, sexuality and nationality.
Forget About Spreading Gossip
It's not a flattering look to be seen getting satisfaction out of gossiping about anybody's misfortune, let alone in a situation like this. Don't be that person that wants to spread the scoop before TMZ has even arrived on the scene. It's called tact, and while there's always more speculation and hysteria around a celebrity that doesn't mean they, their family and their fans don't deserve some sort of respect.
Leave the Jokes in Your Head
Unless it's Joan Rivers, there aren't too many people for whom distasteful jokes about death are appropriate. Best not to be that person who has to apologize for off-color jokes that you just couldn't keep to yourself. If you think somebody may take it the wrong way then you're probably right. Maybe you've been working on a Robin Williams impersonation, or a joke about Heath Ledger and Brokeback Mountain that'll set the PC Police on high alert. Yeah, stop it right now. You're better than that. And if the celebrity in question is a woman? Look, just don't even go there. You know what I mean. Don't be gross.

Is it possible? Possible to love again one you once loved so wholly, so surely? One that shut you out and pushed you away? One that turned on you so quickly that you didn't even notice until it was too late? Can this be possible? Could you love a man like that again or, perhaps more importantly, should you?
Whoa. I love Loki so this is a little different then how I feel about him. But this is so good. I can't stop reading it.


Add -Wno-write-strings to the makefile.
I did a quick grep and didn't find the murkold.exe anywhere, so I commented out the remove and the move in the makefile. After that you should get your murk.exe.
And I have no idea what to do after that. Looks like it's a library not located in the shell (which means it has to be installed)? or what, I do not know. Any ideas?
No need to comment it out. The error is intentionally ignored by the make command directive.
Same deal with commenting them out. They are ignored.
Sqlite3 ships with Murk++. Both the static library and the executable ought to have been built in the sqlite3 directory.
I don't see that in the user's messages.
# The suffix appended to executables.
# This should be set for Cygwin and Windows.
Oh and to the OP, don't add the define above.

The makefile is setup for cygwin by default, as I don't often use those other Linux thingies.
Hmm…is there a reason I'm unable to [re]login as my character? Trying to login as character One gives me "Did I get that right, One (Y/N)?"
Sorry I can't replicate that. The character loading/saving is not done to the database.
Yeah that was my fault, I temporarily moved all the files to a different directory (while the MUD was still running in the background). I'm not exactly looking forward to having all my files in one folder, so I'm probably going to work on reorganizing it into different directories, reminiscent of most Merc derivatives. Also I'd like to add ANSI support, that one should keep me busy for a while, heh.
Only a few things have been moved to the database. IIRC, helps, socials, and titles. The schema file contains definitions for much more than is actually implemented.
http://sqlite.org is probably the best place to start as it contains a wiki with tutorials and information specific to how Sqlite implements SQL.
