John Maxwell shares three important truths the Bible teaches about hell and the afterlife.
When I was in college taking a basic speech and communication class, our professor taught us that in a speech one of the first thing you wanted to do when you stood before people, was an "attention step." The first few words of what you say are to rivet the people's attention on the subject until they won't leave it. And I remember him having us practice our "attention steps."
I'll never forget when Jonah Mitchell, one of my friends, decided to make a great impact with his speech. So when he got up, with all his lungpower, he yelled, "fire!" He got our attention. He got the attention of all the other classes in that hall. We all ran out, as kids are always looking for a chance to escape. And we stood outside and thanked Jonah for getting us out of class early.
This message needs no "attention step," but we certainly need to listen very carefully. In Matthew 13, our Lord gives seven stories, to teach us about the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 13, beginning with verse 47, we read: "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet cast into the sea, gathering fish of every kind. And when it was filled, they drew it up on the beach, and sat down and gathered the good fish into containers, but the bad they threw away. So it will be at the end of the age. The angels shall come forth and take out the wicked from among the righteous, and will cast them in the furnace of fire. And there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." In verse 51, Jesus asked His disciples a question. "'Have you understood all these things?' They said to Him, 'Yes.'"
How many of you remember the old television series Dragnet? If you were too young to remember the series, perhaps you can remember its theme song: "Dum, dum-dum, dum‑dum." I know you're saying, "No. I don't recognize that at all." Of all the commentaries that I have, this TV series probably explains this passage best. It's a picture of fishermen taking a net and dragging it across a lake to gather in all the fish.
1. All people will be brought to judgment before God.
There will be a time when we will be gathered together, just as the fish were dragged out of this lake, and put on the shore and separated ‑‑ the good from the bad. Hebrews 9:27, "It is appointed for man once to die, after that the judgment." When Jesus gave this story, He didn't talk about a fisherman with a hook, line, and sinker. He didn't give us the picture of a man who went out fishing just for a few fish and pulled some out of the lake. It's a clean sweep.
Yesterday, I took Joel and Elizabeth and one of Elizabeth's friends fishing. We threw out our lines, and pretty soon I caught a bass. As I pulled that bass in, their eyes got wide. Joel looked at me and said, "Daddy, in what exact spot did you put that line?" I pointed and said, "Right there beyond that rock." If he asked me that question once during that afternoon, he asked me ten times. That was the only fish we caught. It's not my gift, folks. I can guarantee, when we finished yesterday afternoon, there were a lot of fish left in that little pond. We did not use a dragnet. We did not bankrupt the pond of fish.
2. A separation process occurs.
Jesus said that when the fishermen gather the fish up on the bank, they're sorted out. The good fish they put in a container, the bad fish they throw away.
3. The wicked will be assigned a place in hell.
Lesson No. 3 out of this story. The wicked will be assigned a place in hell. Those bad fish don't go to the same place as the good ones. The Bible clearly teaches us that people that have accepted Jesus Christ as personal Savior and have allowed his blood to wash away their sins are going to a place called heaven. But there is a separation, and those who have not allowed that to happen, will go to another place called hell.
When Jesus finished this story, He looked at His disciples and said, "Men, do you understand what I'm saying?" And they said," "Yes. " Now, for the next few minutes I'm going to be preaching on the subject of hell. And there are going to be times I'm going to want to do as the Lord did that day to the disciples. I'm going to want to stop in the message and ask you, "Do you really understand what I'm saying, that there is a place where men go who do not know Jesus Christ as Savior, forever in eternal torment?"
Sadly enough and surprisingly enough, I've found in Christian circles a soft touch when it comes to a real belief in hell. We certainly embrace heaven, and we certainly enjoy the idea of a fellowship of believers forever in a place with the Lord Jesus Christ where He will be crowned King. But when it comes to the place where people go that do not know Christ, especially when we think of our loved ones and our neighbors and our friends, we tend to just to ignore the subject. Or we say, "Well, they're just not going to heaven." That's not the case.
Let me take what I would consider the three most pressing questions on the subject of hell that are asked of me as a pastor.
1. Can a good God justify hell?
Some people come up to me, and the first thing they ask is, "Can a good and loving God really send people to hell? Can you really justify hell when God is a God of love?"
I want you to understand that in the attributes of God there is a balance. God is a God of love, the same God who loved us so much that He gave us His only begotten Son to come into this world and die for our sins. But this God of love is also a God of holiness, of justice, of righteousness, a God who cannot do anything less than what is absolutely right. Now, in a society that kind of winks at sin and treats it in a nonchalant manner, it's very difficult for us to grasp God's holiness.
It's interesting, of all the great attributes of an Almighty God, the only one given significance by being repeated three straight times is the holiness of God. When Isaiah entered the temple, and saw the majesty of God filling that temple, he said, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God." You see, He's a holy God, a God that cannot do anything less than right. A God of character and justice and righteousness. He cannot allow you or me to do wrong without being disciplined and punished.
You see, He has a great plan, to save the world. That's Plan A, the ultimate for God. He's not willing for any of us to perish. You see, God in his Plan A, said, "I will send my only Son, Jesus Christ, to redeem mankind." But there's a Plan B. Sometimes we force the other option. What happens to the person who willingly disobeys, who willingly rejects God's only Son, Jesus? What is going to happen to that person? You see, the Scriptures picture Jesus not only as a Lamb, a meek person who would willingly give his life so we could be saved. But over in Revelation 5:5 it pictures Jesus as the Lion of Judah. I want you to see that if you don't accept Him as the Lamb, you will accept Him as the Lion. And the holiness of God demands that we do right, and the justice of God demands that He do something about those who are not right.
2. Isn't hell a stiff penalty for not believing in Christ?
Turn with me to Hebrews 10, please. In Hebrews 10:29, the writer of helps us understand why there must be a stiff penalty and a place called hell. First, I want you to back up one verse with me to verse 28, because it opens the door for verse 29.
Verse 28 talks about punishment under the Old Testament law, from the time of Moses, "Anyone who sets aside the law of Moses dies without mercy, on the testimony of two or three witnesses." Under the law of Moses, if you knowingly and willingly disobeyed it, and two or three witnesses said, "I saw him disobey it," you had the possibility of being stoned. That's punishment under the law.
Now in verse 29, the Hebrew writer begins to talk about punishment under grace. "How much severer punishment do you think he will deserve who has trampled underfoot the Son of God, and has regarded unclean the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has insulted the spirit of grace?" The writer says three things about unbelievers in this passage.
He says if you do not accept Christ as personal Savior, you will go to hell because under your own feet you have trampled God. You have treated God and His own Son with disdain.
The phrase, "trample underfoot" is a very interesting one. In fact, Jesus used it twice in the gospels. He gives us two graphic illustrations of what it means to trample something underfoot. Do you remember the Sermon on the Mount when Jesus talked about salt? He says that when it loses its flavor, the salt is just cast on the ground and trampled underfoot. Because the salt no longer serves a purpose. Now, the Hebrew writer says that's exactly the way the unbeliever treats Jesus Christ. They see no purpose in His death, in His resurrection, in what He has done. And so, they just treat Him as they would treat a roadway.
Jesus gives a more graphic illustration in Matthew 7:6, when he says, "Do not give dogs what is sacred, and do not throw your pearls to the pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet. And, then, turn and tear you to pieces." In giving this story, Jesus said that it's senseless to throw a pearl to a pig. Because the pig has no sense of value whatsoever. In fact, the pig would rather have slop than a pearl. He can't eat a pearl. It has no value to him. And so because he does not understand value, that pig will ignore the pearl and trample it underfoot and lost forever. Something of value will be lost because the pig would rather have slop than a pearl. When the Hebrew writer says that the unbeliever has trampled Jesus Christ underfoot, he is painting a word picture of an unbeliever who looks at Jesus' death on the cross, and considers it of no eternal value to his soul. He actually would rather sell those privileges of eternal value and beautiful relationship for a mess of pottage. An eternity of bliss is being traded in for a time of the flesh.
B. Regarded Christ's Blood as nothing special.
He talks about how they have regarded unclean the blood of the covenant by which they have been sanctified. And that word "unclean" draws a picture in a Hebrew's mind of a Gentile, who they did not associate with and would not invite over to dinner. They looked at them as worse than dogs.
The Hebrew writer says that the unbeliever does the same. He doesn't look at Jesus' blood as precious. In fact, he looks at that blood just as the Jews would the blood of a dog. No difference. No sanctity. No beauty. Contrast that with Peter's viewpoint on the Blood. He wrote in his epistle, that it is more precious than silver or gold.
That's why the world does not understand when we come to the Lord's table one Sunday night of the month, and hold in our hand the cup, symbolizing the precious blood, and the bread. We eat of that body that was bruised for our iniquities, and we drink of that cup reminding us that "There is a fountain filled with blood, drawn from Emmanuel's veins. And sinners plunged beneath that flood lose all their guilty stains."
C. Insulted the Spirit of Grace.
And finally he says in verse 29 that the unbeliever insults the spirit of grace. The power of God's spirit is speaking to the unbeliever's heart trying to woo and win him to Jesus, and the unbeliever rejects it and insults it with disdain. They say, "No, I don't want anything to do with it. Leave me alone. Don't bother me any more. I don't want to be a Christian. I want to do my own thing." A terrible picture, isn't it? One of the reasons it's so terrible is I can remember when I was in that picture myself.
3. Does an unbeliever consciously choose to reject Christ and suffer the consequences?
I'm often asked, "Pastor, do you really think that an unbeliever consciously chooses to reject Jesus? Come on now. You really don't believe that they consciously choose wrong instead of right? You don't really believe that they consciously choose sin instead of salvation, do you?" Let's let Romans 1 handle that question.
A. They know God's wrath.
The unbeliever knows the wrath of God. Look at verse 18. "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against ungodliness and against all unrighteousness." "Reveal" means unmistakably clear. Unmistakably, God has made clear His hatred of unrighteousness and ungodliness.
If you read this passage of Scripture, Paul continually shows how clearly the unbeliever is aware of the conscious choice they're making. Let me pick up the phrases and see if you can follow along. He says in verse 19, "God has made it evident to them." He says in verse 20, "They have clearly seen and understood." He says in verse 21, "They knew God." In verse 23, he says, "They have exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image." They exchanged what? They knowingly exchanged God and God's Son for the flesh and sin. Verse 24, "God gave them over..." because they did this knowingly. Verse 25, "They exchanged the truth of God for a lie." Verse 26, "God gave them over." Verse 28, "Since they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over." Verse 32, "They know the ordinance of God." So when people ask if people consciously reject God, the answer is, "Yes, they do. They really consciously reject Him.
Now, I know what you're thinking: "Now, wait a minute. How about that person who has never heard? " How many of you have let that thought enter your mind in the last three minutes? Would you raise your hands, please? Thank you very much. Hundreds. Put them down. Now, I'm going to help you out.
Since I can't cover all theology in one message, I'm not going to deal with that issue this morning. Let's just forget about that one person who has never heard. Okay. Don't worry. God's fair. He'll be fair with them. Let's talk about you. Let's forget about distant people that we've never seen nor ever will see. Let's talk about the people in the pew, hearing this message right now. We're accountable to God.
B. They suppress the truth consciously.
He not only says that we know about and are aware of the truth. He also says that we fight against it. He says that in verse 18. That word "suppress" means to hold down. We hold it down. In other words, he said that truth of God and His hatred for unrighteousness, and His desire for us to turn from sin, keeps coming up before us. It's just bobbing up." It's a picture of something that you're trying to hold under the water.
I can remember when my father used to take a bunch of us to the lake to go swimming. We would stand on big inner tubes and try to hold them underwater. About five of us, arms linked, would stand on one and get excited as we saw that inner tube begin to sink. We'd start to celebrate by the time the water got to our knees. But pretty soon one guy would lose his balance. And as soon as that inner tube had just a little bit of leverage, it would throw all five of us. We'd be underwater, and the inner tube would be right back up on top. Paul says that's exactly what the unbeliever does to Jesus Christ. God comes through many vehicles and says," I love you. I died for your sins. I want you to be saved. I hate sin. I love righteousness." But the unbeliever willfully, consciously tries to submerge that thought in their mind and heart.
C. They are without excuse.
In verse 21, he says, "Because of that no one has an excuse."
Isn't it interesting the word often used for hell is the word "gehenna?" Which is a garbage dump. Right outside of Jerusalem in a deep ravine, they took their garbage and burned it. It smoldered 24 hours a day, and had a terrible odor. The things placed there had no value associated with them. Our Lord describes hell by calling it eternal garbage dump.
Contrast that to the self‑worth that Jesus gives the believer. Once in awhile I'll counsel an unbeliever. I'll say, "Look, you're torn apart with lack of self‑worth; but if you come to Jesus Christ, He'll give you an identity and a purpose." I have watched people with literally no self‑worth at all come to Jesus Christ, and they develop a self‑esteem and a self‑worth. They realized who they were in the Lord Jesus Christ. And a few years later, they were like the apostle Paul who said , "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." But in that eternal place called hell, you are in an eternal garbage dump, and you are junk forever. When you think of the subject of hell, there's something else that will cause you incredible, irreparable emotional anguish in hell.
It's over. The Bible says that there will be weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth. Let's talk about that gnashing of teeth. It means going "arghh." Now every one of us has gnashed our teeth. Come on now. Before this day is over there will be some teeth gnashes right here. Something happens that frustrates us, something happens that bugs us, and we go "arghh." And we almost come to an end of ourselves for a few moments.
I have gone by the kitchen in my house, and noticed that there seemed to be a considerable amount of smoke in the kitchen. And the smell has been a little strange. Then I notice Margaret looking into that stove with smoke pouring out, going "arghh." She's got a burnt sacrifice in there.
We went to the Pops on July 4th, and after the good music, we got back in our car and got in a two‑hour traffic jam. And I sat at the wheel of that car going, "arghh." Once in a while, I realized that maybe one of my members was around and I'd smile. "Arghh,"
But there's a difference. You see, Margaret can clear the overbaked whatever out of the stove, and she can go get something fresh and do it all over again. And I can finally get out of that two-hour traffic jam, and I can determine that I'm not going into that parking lot again. You see, in life when we gnash our teeth and go " arghh," there's something about the fact that we know we have got another chance. It isn't going to be like this forever.
What's going to make hell, incredibly hell, is the fact that you're going to be there for eternity, and you have no other chance. It's over. I've often said, the only failure in life is when a person realizes they don't have another opportunity. That's why the only failure in life is when a person dies without Jesus Christ. Because now there's never a chance to get up and swing the bat at the ball of life one more time. It's over. Forever and ever and ever. You realize that you have rejected Jesus for the last time. There are no more chances. And you're going to stay there and gnash your teeth forever because it's finally sunk in ‑‑ "I've blown it."
Jesus gave us another story about a man who went to hell. He said that this man in hell asked for just a drop of water on his tongue. Now, I don't understand that. I tell you I would have asked for a cup of water. Could I have a pitcher of water? I keep water here inside the podium, and I take a drink once in awhile. My throat gets dry.
Feels so good when I get a little drink of it. Kind of just settles me down. This man in hell says, "Could you just stick your finger in and just give me a drop on my tongue? I don't ask for a cup. I don't ask for a swallow. Could I just have a drop? Just give me a drop to relieve this physical anguish that is eternally going through my body."
I run into people all the time that think that hell is going to be some kind of fraternity party. They say, "I'm going to hell, but my friends are all going with me, and we'll just have a high old time." Yet, when you look at the Bible, you never see friends celebrating in hell. You never see rejoicing that they're there together. In fact, there seems an aloneness, a dark solitude. I'm going to tell you why you're not going to have a party there. You see, in hell you're going to have some deep, eternal personal problems. You show me people with personal problems, and I'll show you people looking out for Number One. They're trying to escape and solve their problem, and they're not really concerned about anyone else. When you go to hell, you're going to realize you've got more problems than you could ever individually handle. And it's not party time.
This is the hardest one to talk about; it's hardest to describe. You see, even the most ungodly person in our society today has the benefits of the hand of God on this society. They have the benefits of Christians living in the society. Even a criminal that does blatant injustice against society can look forward to the fact that there's a system of fairness that at least is going to give him a chance to go to court. You see, what is hell? Hell is where God withdraws his presence forever. There is no grace. There is no light. There are no possibilities, no exceptions. God's gone. Christians are gone.
One word that describes this anguish is "darkness." Hell is a place of eternal darkness. You see, God is light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. At the moment God leaves the room, there's no light.
It gives a picture of a place with no floor. Did you ever have a dream that you were falling? In my first pastorate, while driving on a hill, I didn't negotiate the curve correctly. My car fell 40 feet and was totally demolished. For the next several months, I would wake up in the middle of the night, dreaming of that helpless feeling of going over that cliff. Absolutely nothing I could do. In a cold sweat, I'd be jerking around, again reliving that fall. Margaret would wake me up and tell me it was all right, and I'd put myself together and go back to sleep. This happened night after night after night, and I remember that hopeless feeling of falling with nothing to grab on to.
The Bible describes hell as a bottomless pit. When we're here in this earth, we have a possibility of establishing a relationship with God and His Son. But we consciously choose, "I want to do my own thing. I want to go my own way." We decide to let go. So when we're in hell, there's a sense of falling, falling away farther from God today than we were yesterday. He's so far we can't reach up, and He can't touch us.
I woke up a dozen times last night, with the same thought would come to my mind: "Oh, God, in the morning I'm going to speak on hell to my people. And it's possible that in a crowd of several hundred people, some are going to a Christless eternity. God, what can I do? Can I say something or do something that will change somebody's mind? What can I do to keep my people from going to hell? " I want to tell you, I would do anything I possibly could to keep you from going to that place.
If you go to hell, you'll pass over this message this morning, and the prayers of loved ones for you. But most importantly, if you go to hell, you're going to have to go to the cross of Jesus himself, and look with disdain at Him, and say, "Jesus, I do not accept you as Savior. I do not accept you as Lord of my life. I want do my own thing."
1. Unbeliever - You need Christ!
If you go to hell, it's because you choose to do so. You've chosen to reject Jesus.
2. Believer - Show someone the way to heaven!
You are the only one that will keep someone from hell. Every one of you. You have someone under your influence, and you are the only one that's going to keep them from going there. And you'd better realize it. That's why we teach soul winning and witnessing in this church. You better learn how to bring somebody to Jesus. Because some of your friends will never come and hear me preach, they'll never come and hear a Christian song, they'll never come forward. So all of you need to feel the personal responsibility.
3. Church - We must be redemptive!
The church's mandate and mission is to get the bride ready for the groom. Our purpose is to fulfill the great commission.
Listen to me very carefully. Skyline is not a country club, where members pay dues for rights and privileges to sit in pews and listen to messages and go home with lives unchanged. And this is not a performing arts center, where you come and sit and drop in your tithe for me to preach and people to sing, to be entertained so you can be a merrier Christian. This church is to win people to Jesus. And we will not allow anything to stop us from that mission and mandate. And that is the reason we're planning to relocate and build a larger sanctuary. And we'd better remember that. Thousands of souls a day are dying into a Christless eternity. And there is no room in this congregation for church members who think that this church is to serve their needs, and feed them so they can go around being fat‑over‑stuffed porkers. We're to win the lost. In the last two Sundays, not including this one this morning, we've had 27 adults find Jesus Christ as personal Savior in this church. Lets bow our heads.
1. _____________________ will be brought to judgment before God.
3. ____________________ will be assigned ___________________.
2. Isn't hell a stiff penalty for not believing in Christ?
B. Regarded Christ's Blood as _____________________________.
C. ____________________________________ the Spirit of grace.
1. _________________________ - You need Christ!
2. _________________________ - Show someone the way to heaven!
3. _________________________ - We must be redemptive!

Selling is not always about problem solving. If you are reading the hottest sales books and listening to the trendiest sales gurus though, you might think it was.
Every time I travel, I check into the hotel, throw the bag on the bed, adjust the heat down to 66 degrees (who can possibly be comfortable at 72?) then step into the bathroom to try to wash away a bit of the day's travel. I then invariably look up into the mirror and realize the recurring dream I have when dozing off in a plane about my sudden hair growth alas, did not come true. I move on and peer into the mirror past my balding pate focusing in the space just behind me.
I see now as I always do in the reflection, the curved shower rod above the tub and get reminded once again so powerfully, that sales is definitely not just about problem solving.
The curved shower rod. This thing is amazing. Without changing the size of the shower, it just now feels bigger with a curved shower rod. Who woulda thunk it?
That's kind of the point. Do you think hotel managers across the country were suffering for decades with the pain of having straight shower curtain rods? Had they been for years dealing with complaint after complaint that the showers were feeling too small for the patrons? Do you think they got thousands of letters demanding they make the showering experience feel like there is more room in said shower?
Do you think then that a crack team of salespeople, product developers, sales leaders and marketers hunkered down in some basement trying for years to come up with the product that would fix this terrible problem of the normal straight shower rods? Do you think they created the curved shower rod as a solution to a problem and sold it that way?
Some brilliant person created and sold this product because it made the experience better, not because there was a problem that needed fixing.
Sometimes if we obsess with "solution" selling or "problem solving" as our lead mantra on the phone or in the field, we'll fall on deaf ears or worse as we try to illustrate problems that don't exist in the mind of our customers or frankly in the mind of anyone.
You might get more business when you sell products that add better to a business, not just solve a problem.

What a week! I don't know what to do first: Proofread Rolf's blog post on solar charging, putting the parade pictures together for a Facebook Album, write the Victoria Parade blog post, work on the parade's video, or what?! 😉 Media Kit is waiting, car stickers need ordering, Canadian EV Clubs need to be contacted, and so much more… As per today, we have 15 days left before our cross Canada trip in a Tesla Model X towing a camping trailer will begin! Well, one thing at a time 🙂 Time for the parade's blog post then!
Monday, June 23, was Victoria Day and as usual, Victoria BC celebrates the Queen's birthday with a parade – the 3rd largest in all of Canada and the 118th in Victoria BC! Fellow Victoria EV Club board members agreed that this would be a great opportunity to raise awareness for electric cars in general and our cross Canada trip in particular (Since we heard a few too many "What's an EV?" during the 2015 Christmas Parade… 😉 ) Therefore, we signed up early on. Luckily! Since "only" about 113 entries made it into the parade with another 24 on the waiting list. No wonder, since this annual parade usually attracts crowds of close to 100,000 people with even more following via TV live Broadcast and, for the very first time this year, also via Internet online live streaming. That way, even my sister in Germany was able to watch us!
That's how I started our 'About us' post. Now, if some of you thought that driving from Victoria BC to Ft. Lauderdale FL and back (round trip about 9,000 mi/ 14,000+ km) In.An.Electric.Car! was 'wild', or that crossing Canada in a Tesla Model X is 'wild' you ain't seen nothing yet 😉. On May 1, we'll announce what I would really call a 'wild idea'!
We are in Silicon Valley, CA. What an inspiring place this is. It's like being in the future, seeing how it will hopefully be like everywhere else soon. There are tons of #ElectricCars driving around, all makes, including buses! There are tons of #ElectricChargers. We saw #SolarPanels used to shade car parking. We even saw a solar panel-powered #EVCharger.

What else will be in V17?
So what else will be in V17?
I have a general direction, but other than that, even I don't know until I start!
I'm thinking of growing the Prince a little bit. Yep. I know. It's time.
But first I'd like to tackle taming Water Dragons and WTFs! I just think that would be so cool!!!
Speaking of cool... we made a deal with the Avatar mod. We get the Leonopteryx in return for animating him!
Working on his basic entity code now. He will attack like a normal mob, unless you tame him!
And, as a bonus, just like the movie, you will be able to ride him too! Woohoo!
So please give a big warm welcome to LEON!!!
Also a great big thanks to the guys at the Avatar Mod, and to Karrybird for the model!!!
And not to forget Zombieslaya75 for making the initial contact arrangements!
Update: Water Dragons and WTFs have been tackled! Now tameable and breedable!


Chicago Addick living in Bermuda: Not pretzels again?
I was reading Casino Avenue's 'my favourite crisps' this morning and it got me all nostalgic but not necessarily for my youth but just for home.
Because the Americans love pretzels. They are everywhere and before I arrived I was a bit partial myself but only as part of a calorie controlled diet that also included pork scratchings, Walkers crisps, KP roasted peanuts, chipsticks and Bombay mix.
But here you will not find Walkers or KP roasted peanuts or pork scratchings and as for bombay mix.... pah, no fcuking chance. It's just pretzels or pecans and normally smothered in chocolate or deep fried and as big as the Isle of Man!
All you get on a plane are pretzels, all sandwich shops sell alongside sandwiches are pretzels, oh and poxy doritos - cheese, oh and cheesier flavour. Cinema's sell pretzels, sports stadiums sell pretzels. No salt & vinegar, cheese & onion, smokey bacon, roast chicken, nothing. Pretzels or Doritos. You would have thought that in the land of opportunity there would be untold choice in the snack stakes wouldn't you? But no, pretzels it is, boring pretzels.
And I see from the Walkers website that there are now Greek kebab flavour. Heaven in a bag. There is now obviously no need to ever leave the pub.

I have a question that in active directory we set password policy "Enforce Password History" and user has to keep password for a day. When user is trying to change the password from his/her pc she gets error message.
But we can change the password through Active Directory Users and Computers and at that time we don't get error message even if we give same password.
I want to know why we don't get error message but users gets it.
Policies in Active Directory are only applied to specific users or computers for which the policies are applied to. When you are in Active Directory you have administrative rights over those accounts and the policy is not enforced.
I understand fully what you mean because we have exactly the same problem.
I can reset a users password from active directory .
( Fom Active Directory users and computers on any server or my Pc which has the AD Snap-In).
However i can't reset their domain password for them at their OWN PC.
It will reset for some users but not for other in our case at our organisation. This seems to be user specific. As i can reset some user who are in the same OU.
I can set some peoples passwords say from my PC by loggin them into my PC & clicking the Cntrl ALT Del > Change password but it doesn't work this way for all my users.
What's going on here does anyone know?
if we try to use a capital letter then folowed by an @ symbol it will not allow us to change the users password locally but again does allow us to do so from AD on the the server/Snap-in.
If you do get this sorted can you drop in a comment as i have "I would like to be notified checked. Also if i manage to work this out i will follow up for you"
Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\AccountPolicies\Password Policy and also if you are not able to change the password through users PC then what is the value in enforce password history option.

Always Marry the Crazy Ones
Way to go, Carlos Irwin Estevez:
Authorities haven't identified the accuser, but the woman on the 911 call says her name is Brooke and that her husband is Charlie Sheen. Sheen is married to Brooke Mueller Sheen.
The woman can be heard weeping and sometimes her words are inaudible. At one point she says, "My husband had me (inaudible) with um, with a knife, and (inaudible) he threatened me." Later, she says, "I thought I was gonna die for one hour."
The woman says her family is also in the house and that her husband was in another room when she called 911.
The 44-year-old Sheen denied threatening his wife with a knife or choking her, and told officers they had slapped each other on the arms and that he had snapped two pairs of her eyeglasses in front of her, according to the affidavit. An ambulance was sent to their house in Aspen, Colorado, but police say no one was taken to the hospital.
TMZ says sources tell it authorities "gave both Charlie and Brooke blood alcohol tests. Brooke registered a .13 while Charlie registered a .04. ... We're also told Brooke recanted her story to a female officer just before the bail hearing, telling the cop she was drunk when she made the 911 call. Nevertheless, law enforcement sources say police will still pursue the case -- at least for now."
And so continues the saga. If you check out WeSmirch, it's huge over there. They've even dug up a Christmas card.
This crazy young couple must be in love. Neither are sober, both are violent and screwed up, and craziness abounds. If you can't get through Christmas with the ones you love, then everyday life must be a riot. That must be one hell of a house to live in. She's pinging off the walls, he's walking around with a 4 inch lock blade, and neither one of them care if there are kids in the house or not. It must be high living on all of that CBS sitcom money. Do you think, somewhere, there's a showrunner lining up his resume and hoping things don't run afoul of the rather strange ethical standards of Les Moonves?
Creative types usually get weird, and that's fine by me. This kind of weird isn't from creativity. It's from the hooch, you see. Young Estevez was smart. He married a crazy drunk with no credibility. This is how it is done.

Q: How to import a modified class in python? I used in my project scikit-learn library and for various reasons I had to modify some classes inside the library.
In particular these classes are called by the algorithms that I used for classification purposes.
So in example I have in my code:
from sklearn.linear_model import SGDClassifier

Now I want to import in my code these modified classes, in a way that scikit-learn library remains the same and when the algorithm is called it uses my classes (that obviously are in a separate folder) instead of the original ones.
What is the right way to do this?
Thanks in advance

A: The modules you import are basically just python-files themselves (*.py). Python knows where to look for them. E.g. Sklearn might be installed into the package-folder. Python will also look for it in the folder from which your current script is run.
You can copy the code for that class, manipulate how you wish and then save it to a new .py file within your project folder. If you name that python-file myNewClasses.py and the new class My_SGDClassifier you can go like
from myNewClasses import My_SGFClassifier

This way you do not interfer with the original sklearn-class. You can also have several classes, functions or whatever you like in that file/module and import them accordingly.

A: If I had to do something like this I would use virtualenv for sure:

*

*Use virtualenv myProject to create your virtual environment

*cd myProject and enter bin/activate

*You can pip install sklearn and rebuild/modify or copy your modified sklearn to myProject/lib/python2.7

*Just import it and use it.

Note that your virtual env packages will be completly separated from your computer environment

A 59-year-old Burbank business owner pleaded not guilty Friday to creating a nuisance and potential danger for aircraft at Bob Hope Airport by feeding hundreds of pigeons near the runway.
Charles Douglas appeared in the Los Angeles County Superior Courtroom in Burbank with attorneys Bruce Kaufman and Donald Ingalls to answer to the misdemeanor charges of disobeying a court order and creating a public nuisance.
He and his attorneys declined to comment about the case, which was continued to Oct. 21 for a pretrial hearing.
Douglas, a Glendale resident, has long battled with police and city officials over feeding a growing flock of pigeons at his business, which is near the airport.
Police say feeding the pigeons at his business, Precise Roofing Company, on Hollywood Way and Tulare Avenue, has created a major safety hazard for airplanes using the airport.
The rate of bird strikes had been increasing due to the influx of birds, police said, prompting Douglas' arrest in August.
The swarm of birds caused a Southwest Airlines flight in July to be diverted to Ontario International Airport, officials said.
Douglas was found guilty in December 2010 and February for creating a nuisance by feeding the birds.
Police cited Douglas again in July for feeding pigeons.
If Douglas is convicted of one of the charges, city attorneys said he faces six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.

Claudio Droguett
4946Chilean born director, Claudio Droguett, has had an eclectic career in advertising, working in genres from beauty to politics and social change. After graduating from Careers Communications in 1982, he traveled to New York to study film and landed a job in the TV department of BBDO New York. During the 10 years spent in the agency as an executive producer, he worked closely with many major advertising Directors, producing multiple ads for accounts like Pepsi, Visa, GE, Lever, Dupont, Polaroid and others.
Then came another transition in his career. While working as executive producer for BBDO NY, Claudio was asked to create and manage a project for the Council of Fashion Designers of America and that was how he started my career as a Director, taking over projects for Vogue, Time Warner, IBM, Warner Bros., Ralph Lauren, W Magazine, John Bartlett, Bill Blass, etc. He directed some of the most influential personalities of the time, including Katharine Graham and Anna Wintour, who he filmed on six separate occasions.
As a producer, Claudio has managed to attract major international projects around the world to be filmed in Chile – helping to open up the production services business even before the existence of the Europe or US companies in that part of the world. He also worked with the agency on the creative side, creating successful identities for many important Latin American brands, ranging from retail to airlines – and continued to attract international clients.
Claudio's recent projects include the successful advertising campaign for the outgoing Chilean President Sebastian Pinera, where he both wrote and directed the TV spots. He is currently living in Spain where he continues directing commercials for various international brands, primarily in the beauty category in which he has shot more than 40 personalities and celebrities in USA, Europe, Asia, Middle East and Latin America.

Andrea Penrose is American author of Historical Mystery, Mystery, and Thrillers novels. She started writing westerns at the tender age of 5 years complete with crayons drawing to illustrate them. It is not a surprise that she graduated with a master's degree in Graphic Design from Yale School of Art, served in the publication design plus she is a famous writer of romance novels using the name Cara Elliot and Andrea Pickens.
The author's historical novels are set in Regency England. She has won awards including the two Daphne Du Maurier Awards. Additionally, she has been a 3-time finalist for the prestigious RITA Award. Her novels have been translated into over eight languages.
Penrose was first published in 2011 when Sweet Revenge, the first book in Lady Arianna Hadley Mystery was published. The 2nd book in the series is The Cocoa Conspiracy published the same year as the first while Recipe for Treason the third book was released in 2012.
The second series authored by Andrea Penrose is Murder on Black Swan Lane published in 2017. The title is the first novel in a series Quill Mystery series.
Lady Arianna is exiled from her home in the Caribbean due to her father disgrace, but when her father is murdered, she vows to get revenge when the perfect moment comes. Years pass by, and Arianna finds herself in the perfect moment to execute her revenge. She disguises herself as a male Chef. However, when Prince Regent falls sick after eating from Arianna's table, she becomes the prime suspect thus bringing her plans to a standstill.
Alessandro De Quincy, half-Spanish Earl of Saybrook, is called to investigate what is suspected to be poisoning of Prince Regent. The investigator not only discovers that the alleged suspect is a woman but also that she wants revenge. These partners now have to work together if they need to find the person who exactly wants to kill Prince Regent and somehow might coincide with Arianna's revenge.
Sweet Revenge is a cozy mystery that delivers exactly what the readers want. It also features vividly explained historical details about both the period as well as the chocolate as a new variety of food in England. The characters are also fully developed; their interaction creates an authentic mystery.
The book focuses majorly on the mystery element, both Arianna's investigations regarding her father's murder and Saybrook investigation about Prince poisoning.
The relationship that exists between Saybrook and Arianna is great. These two are both interesting but also puzzling characters; however, their initial interactions were entertaining but also filled with tension.
Apart from the mystery concept of the book, the author intersperses chocolate recipe at the beginning of each chapter in all the books in the series. These recipes are tempting and delicious and serve to give you a taste of the original chocolates.
The Cocoa Conspiracy
The Cocoa Conspiracy continues the narrative of two characters Alessandro de Quincy and Lady Arianna first introduced in Sweet Revenge. In this book, they make a return as newlyweds. As soon as they settle in their marriage life, chocolate delights, academic pursuits, and mystery blows their way. When Arianna acquires a book with complex engravings of the cocoa tree for her husband's birthday, she trips into a political conspiracy that follows them. Arianna soon realizes the explosive nature of her purchase. Once again, Sandro and Arianna team up to solve the mystery while at the same time maintaining their parlous standing in the society.
The author Penrose does a splendid job of taking the reader back to the Regency England (the period when King George III was ruled unfit to rule, and son ruled). She does not miss a single bit by adding some nontraditional characters that help solve the mystery of the novel. The author also dishes up a side story – a growing romance between the couple whose love is sweeter like cocoa and makes us addicted to the Regency England. The author's witty dialogue makes the characters real to the readers.
Recipe for Treason (2017)
The third installment in A Lady Arianna Regency Mystery series & it follows the adventures of Sandro and his wife Lady Arianna during the Regency England. The year is 1814, and what Lady Arianna and her husband want is to live a happy and quiet couple life accompanied by an occasional cup of chocolate. However, when they get orders that they must travel to England and capture an evasive traitor, they understand that duty to the crown comes first.
While inside a lab in Scotland, they discover the body of a chemistry professor and ambiguous paper that hint a new and a dangerous discovery now in the hands of the enemy. Racing against time, Saybrook and Arianna pursue their most dangerous and cunning adversary through a complex chain of interests involving daredevil aviators, exotic chocolates, a secret recipe and a missing inventor who must be found must be found at any cost.
Murder on the Black Swan Lane (2017)
It is a murder mystery and the first novel in Quill Mystery series. Charlotte Sloane is an artist; she continues her husband's work when he dies, as a ironic cartoonist. On the other hand is Earl of Wexford, a bored aristocrat has a brilliant mind and also superb in scientific experiments.
So when Earl is considered a suspect in a murder case, he sets out to prove that he is innocent and discover who the real killer is. In the course of his investigations, he encounters Charlotte and proposes to her to join forces since she has ways, and of accessing information that is beyond him and in exchange, he will keep her secret.
Helping in this journey are two brothers, Hawk and Raven, street children whom Charlotte befriends and tries to take care of in a secretive way. Raven is proud and is the protector of his younger brother. Other characters appear throughout the story. Even though there some bits of experiments and science, the overall story is overwhelming and you will find it fascinating.
Charlotte and Earl make one great team especially with the addition of Hawk and Raven. This debut is for sure a start of a great series.

She said, "Texas medical board dismisses the complaint against me. The haters have been defeated and God has showed Himself as my protector and defender. God bless TMB, God bless Texas, God bless America. Good will win. American will win. Haters read and weep."
In the letter, the Board indicated that the investigation was dismissed because there was insufficient evidence to prove that she violated Medical Practices Act.
As such, this complaint has been dismissed without prejudice. No further action will be taken concerning this complaint," the Board said in the letter.
Immanuel had early August through a tweet announced that the Texas Medical Board had opened investigation into her claim that the anti-malaria drug can cure COVID-19.
This followed early warning by the Board that it will take action against any complaint for false, misleading or deceptive advertising for COVID-19 cure under its standard enforcement process.
In the tweet confirming that the Board has begun investigating her, the Huston based doctor had also solicited for donations to fund her legal efforts.
Immanuel attracted global attention in July 2020 when a video of her touting hydroxychloroquine as cure for Covid-19 went viral taken in company of other medical doctors went viral.
The letter by Texas Medical Board clearing Dr. Immmanuel
"If they put everybody on hydroxychloroquine it would stop COVID-19 in its tracks in 30 days," she said in the video recorded at a news conference.
The video went viral after President Donald Trump who had also touted hydroxycholoroquine as cure for COVID-19 shared it on Twitter.
But the video was later removed by Twitter and other social media networks over claims that it contained false information.

Will they or won't they? "There's no denying there's chemistry," says "Walking Dead" star Melissa McBride of Daryl and Carol.
Fans of "The Walking Dead" have seen it. Hundreds of blogs have been written about it.
What exactly is going on with Carol Peletier and Daryl Dixon, two of the band of survivors on AMC's hit drama about the zombie apocalypse that seem to have an electric chemistry? Is it a deep friendship? Is it something more?
Melissa McBride, who plays Carol on the show, smiled when asked the question during a recent visit to the Los Angeles Times to discuss the show, her role and her connection to co-star Norman Reedus, who plays Daryl.
"There's no denying there's chemistry there," McBride said. "I love Norman. But I can't say because the writers haven't given it to us. They are peers, I can say that."
She added that there's a "sweetness" between the two, and they have identified with each other during the apocalypse.
"As far as the relationship, it's just Daryl and Carol," McBride said, beaming.
Melissa McBride, who plays Carol Peletier on AMC's "The Walking Dead," stopped by The Times to discuss the show, her character and, of course, the chemistry between Carol and Daryl.
The trouble with 'Walking Dead's' Season 6 and its OMG moments: Has the show broken its own zombie code?

Q: How to enable runtime scaffolding in EF Core Creating dynamic ASP.NET MVC EF Core application with Npgsql EF Core provider.
I tried to implement runtime scaffolding as described in
https://medium.com/@zaikinsr/roslyn-ef-core-runtime-dbcontext-constructing-285a9d67bc87
In project .config file
  <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Design" Version="5.0.2">
  <PrivateAssets>all</PrivateAssets>
  <IncludeAssets>runtime; build; native; contentfiles; analyzers; buildtransitive</IncludeAssets>
</PackageReference>

is changed to
<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Design" Version="5.0.2"/>

After that yellow warning icons appear in Visual Studio Solution Explore Dependecies tree:

Build and package manager windows do not contain any warnings.
How to find warning message related to this icon ?
How to fix this ?
Which is proper way to use scaffold in runtime ?

A: When I tried your steps on my side with Asp Net Core 3.1 MVC project, I did not face the same situation with the yellow icon.
Please try the following steps:

*

*clean nuget caches first or just delete all files under C:\Users\Administrator\.nuget\packages.
Then, close VS, , delete .vs hidden folder under the solution folder, bin and obj folder of your project.
After that, restart your project to test again.

*add dotnet restore under Project Properties-->Build Events--> Pre-build event command line, then build your project to test again.

*create a new Asp Net Core project to test again.

Farmer discusses clean-up efforts in Kentucky
December 17, 2021 Staff
December 17, 2021 By Amie Simpson Filed Under: Disaster Relief, News
Southwestern Ohio farm Andy Korb was in Mayfield, Kentucky, earlier this week helping with clean-up efforts from the devastating tornadoes.
"It was total chaos," he says. "Most of those people lost everything."
He tells Brownfield he's planning to travel to Kentucky again on Monday.
"Some friends of mine in northern Ohio are putting some groups of people together and taking donations on hay and straw and feedstuffs and personal care items on an individual basis not just for livestock," he says. "There's going to be a huge caravan of people heading down. I think there's going to be 20 or 30 trucks and trailers heading to Mayfield to help those people in need."
Korb runs a cow-calf operation near Oxford, Ohio.
More rain from the southeastern Plains to the southern Corn Belt
Senator expects farm bill discussions to pick up soon


He: "You mean you're cooking?" Note to self: this could be a good day.
8:01a: With her breakfast burrito success thoroughly evaluated (and found exceptional), I confronted the chaos that is my garage current shop. Too much stuff in too little space.
8:25a: Stowed the Mrs M display pieces and Mr M inventory out of the way and began the real work of the day. I know the world has a lot of cheese. The world needs more cheese boards.
8:45a: I start to turn on my saw, but realize the time. Too soon.
9:05a: Dust collection up. Saw on. I have a bunch of new lumber to process, and its going to be a rough ride. The lumber is common grade with a lot of checking (which are cracks in the boards). Cherry, black walnut and ash are all mixed in the pile. Lots of odd sizes. The process begins in earnest. 10:22a: # 1 daughter-in-law and # 1 granddaughter arrive. I'm in my hearing protection with dust collection and table saw running, and Payton walks to the middle of the driveway and begins talking to me. I shut down and lose the ear muffs: I need to listen. Of course.
10:37a: First cheese board lumber picked and processed. Glue-ups could now begin … if there was a work surface available in the shop. There is not, nor will there be for a long time.
10:50a: Velda yells at me because she needs access to the garage refrigerator. To do that, she needs to cross into my garage woodshop. That woman has no boundaries.
11:000a: Little Girl arrives. She's going to the Pumpkin Patch with Velda & Payton. And my camera.
12:43p: I lay out the 12th board of the day, which is dubbed the USC board, as it has purpleheart and yellowheart as the principal woods. It hurts me a little to make a board for the anti-Bruins … but it's OK. I'll just charge them more.
1:08p: The 16th board is also for USC fans. It'll be end grain. And have a stiffer Trojan tax. I love it when prices go up.
1:23p: I discover that I'm much more out of control than I thought. After a few hours in the shop processing rough lumber, I glance at the dust collector, and see that not only is the lower bag full, it has now overflowed into the upper bag, which stands 50% full. This is a very, very bad thing.
See The Worst Job In The Shop. When I wrote that piece, the dust collector upper bag was perhaps 10% full. And that was bad.
I'm going to get really dirty … after lunch. Good plan. After lunch.
So, no dust collection until after lunch. I can still use the table saw and planer … but the dust will have to, uh, collect on its own.
1:45p: The ladies return with orange squash in hand. I am not offered my camera back.
1:53p: The 20th new cheese board is picked and processed, awaiting glue-up.
2:30p: I am invited to a Mrs M's Handmade executive session to present the plan for this weekend's big event: the Saugus High Boutique Fantastique. We have rented a double booth, 10'x20′, which is our biggest ever. We need a plan. We need more tables. We need more stuff.
3:03p: We review the plan, we review the calendar. We have a shopping list and tasks to complete.
3:12p: The ladies decide that Alley is the boss of me. In their complicated female logic, it's found that Velda is not the boss of me (they got that one right), but Alley is. I do not comment on their conclusion. That is evidence of increased wisdom due to my experience in handling living with being around … sorry. I am mistaken. Alley is the boss of me, and I should just accept that without comment. Done.
3:24p: The ladies approve me to purchase a plunge router. I need that tool to make good juice grooves for cutting boards, and that is now in my future.
Because I need more stuff in my shop.
Oh, and prices will go up. I love it when prices go up.
3:29p: Back to the shop. And the worst job in the shop.
4:03p: Velda yells at me because I have lumber stacked in front of her freezer. No surprise there: I have lumber stacked everywhere at this point.
4:17p: I discover a rats nest buried behind the lumber behind the dust collector. And a dead rat. The. Worst. Job. In. The. Shop.
4:48p: Finish cleaning up the dust collector. One big bag of sawdust and five medium bags of sawdust are removed from the shop. Oh, and the dead thing, too.
5:03p: Reassemble the dust collector. Thank goodness.
5:22p: Empty the rolling cut-off bin where I put, uh, cut-offs. This stock is 2′ to 5′ long. I remove the softwoods that I no longer have room to store here, and organize the hardwood. I find some great hard maple and a piece of teak that'll be used tomorrow. I fill the bin with the common stock walnut and the new cut-offs from today. The cut-offs from the last 3 months will continue to be wherever I can stick them.
5:45p: Little Girl and Miss P go to the hockey game to watch E play. Side note: when Auntie Lauren was watching the Kings game this afternoon, Payton asked which of the players was E. Adorable.
5:50p: Christopher arrives. He begins to search for a tool I don't use. Hahahahahahaha. He doesn't find it.
6:40p: Shop shut down. Time for a shower.

Der auditive oder auch auditorische Cortex/Kortex (von lat. audire = dt. "hören" bzw. lat. auditio = dt. "Gehör" und lat. cortex = dt. "Rinde") – auch Hörzentrum oder Hörrinde genannt – ist der Bereich der Großhirnrinde, der der Verarbeitung und dem Bewusstwerden von akustischen Reizen dient. Er ist somit der Endpunkt der Hörbahn.

Anatomische Lage

Beim Menschen liegt der auditive Cortex auf der oberen Windung des Temporallappens, dem Gyrus temporalis superior. Ein erheblicher Teil liegt in der Tiefe der Sylvischen Furche (Fissura lateralis), und wird vom Frontal- und Parietallappen bedeckt; dies sind die Gyri temporales transversi, die auch als Heschl'sche Querwindungen (nach Richard Heschl) bekannt sind. Das dem Sprachverständnis zugeordnete Wernicke-Areal auf dem Gyrus supramarginalis wird bisweilen der Hörrinde zugerechnet. Nach dem Hirnatlas von Korbinian Brodmann entsprechen dem auditiven Cortex die Brodmann-Areale 41, 42 und 22 sowie zum Teil das Areal 52. Mikroanatomisch handelt es sich um einen sechsschichtigen Isocortex.

Gliederung und Funktion
Das primäre (A1, BA 41), das sekundäre (A2, BA 42) und das tertiäre auditive Gebiet umgeben einander konzentrisch. Ähnlich wie alle primären rezeptiven Felder zeigt das primäre Hörfeld eine räumliche Organisation: in diesem Fall sind es an mehreren Stellen die Frequenzen, die eine kontinuierliche Repräsentation, die sogenannte Tonotopie, aufweisen. Man kann also mehrere Karten der repräsentierten Frequenzen auf der Hirnoberfläche zeichnen. Die sekundären und tertiären Felder sind assoziativ, d. h., sie dienen vorwiegend dazu, aktuelle Hörinformation mit Bekanntem zu vergleichen, einzuordnen und zu bewerten. Dies geschieht überwiegend unbewusst. Ins Bewusstsein dringen hingegen Hörreize, die unbekannt oder nicht einordbar sind oder potentiell auf Bedrohliches hinweisen ("Warnreize") sowie alles, worauf man sich konzentriert. Wichtigste funktionelle Teilleistung der Hörrinde beim Menschen ist das Sprachverständnis.

Durch Versuche an genetisch veränderten Mäusen gelangte man zur Erkenntnis, dass die Menge des von den Oligodendrozyten gebildeten Myelins sowie die Energieversorgung dieser Zellen positiv korreliert ist mit der Fähigkeit, kurze Pausen innerhalb eines lang anhaltenden Tons zu erkennen. Dies ist beim Menschen eine "wichtige Voraussetzung für die Spracherkennung".

Q: can't define function return type properly on typescript This is the function that I have implemented for decoding the token with the aid of jsonwebtoken there is problem with return type that I have defined for the function,

import jwt, { decode } from "jsonwebtoken";

export const authentication = (
  token: string
): {
  error: { [message: string]: Error } | null;
  token: { [adminID: string]: string } | null | string;
} => {
  const decodedToken = jwt.decode(token);
  return {
    error: decodedToken
      ? null
      : {
          message: new Error("invalid error"),
        },
    token: decodedToken ? decodedToken : null,
  };
};

I'm trying to utilize the function like the code snippet below
  const { token, error } = authentication(context.headers.authorization);
  if (error) {
    throw new Error(error.message.toString());
  }

  const { adminID } = token;
  console.log("this is admin id", adminID);

In this part when I'm  going to get adminID by object destructuring type script throws an error in like this
 Property 'adminID' does not exist on type 'string | { [adminID: string]: string; } | null'.

15   const { adminID } = token;

I need to mention that everything is working properly and I can get the adminID from token but typescript is blaming about this.
any idea would be appreciated.

A: { [adminID: string]: string } is an index signature: it means an object that can be indexed with any string (and the name for the string parameter is adminID) and return a string. For an object with an adminID property of type string you want { adminID: string } instead (and probably error: { message: Error } | null as well).
And even better, use a discriminated (or tagged) union instead of two fields one of which must be null. Approximately like this:
export const authentication = (
  token: string
): { kind: "error", error: Error } | { kind: "token", adminId: string }
  const decodedToken = jwt.decode(token);
  return decodedToken
      ? { kind: "token", ...decodedToken }
      : { kind: "error", error: new Error("invalid error") };
};

Of course code consuming it will need to be changed as well:
const authResult = authentication(context.headers.authorization);
if (authResult.kind === "error") {
  throw new Error(authResult.error.toString());
}

const { adminID } = authResult.token;
console.log("this is admin id", adminID);

Austria vs Poland – 21/03/2019 Preview
Football, International, UEFA Euro 2020 March 18, 2019 by admin
Sport Type: Football
League: UEFA Euro 2020
Austria - Poland
As we can see, last year Austria played much stronger and confident than Poland. They have strong and experienced players, moreover, they play from the defense and likes to control the game, especially, while playing home games. Of course, the first games in qualification is very tough and careful. However, Austria has bigger chances to succeed and they will win, or at least should take a draw.
Austria will face Poland at Ernst Happel Stadion, in Viena, in UEFA Europe 2020 Qualification 1th Round. Austria against Poland is the match with big interest because of great National squads and great perspectives in Qualification. Review our thoughts on this match here below.
2. Austria
3. North Macedonia
4. Slovenia
5. Latvia
6. Israel
FIFA Rating – 23
The national team from Austria finished at second place in UEFA Nations League, as a result, saved their position in League B. They lost only once and have drawn against Bosnia & Herzegovina. In total, they scored 3 and conceded 2 goals in 4 matches. In the year 2018, they played 11 matches in different competitions including friendly games. At home, they lost only once against super combined Brasil national squad with 0:3 result. Austria is playing very strong in defense, especially at home ground. As a result, in the year2018, they conceded 4 goals in total against Brasil and Germany. Moreover, all other games they won or played a draw without conceding any goals.
Austria as to every competition called up very strong and perspective squad, moreover, they will start the tournament from home game. Their players mostly are from Austria and Germany's Bundesliga, although, they play on the highest level and in mostly in strongest leagues. One of the squad leaders Marko Arnautovic is the leading person in West Ham United in English Premier League and could cause troubles to almost all strongest defenses in the world. In addition, he just got back to the squad after an injury. Unfortunately, Philipp Lienhart, Hannes Wolf, Guido Burgstaller and Michael Gregoritsch will miss the match due to injuries.

After very strong football and 1st place in World Cup qualification, Poland has dropped their for very strongly. In contrast to 2017, their game last year was very unimpressive. They played in one group with Italy and Portugal in League A of UEFA Nations League, finally, dropped to League B. Most interesting is that they played road games better than at home ground. They lost at home to Italy 0:1 and 2:3 to Portugal, however, they have drawn against them in away matches. Moreover, in the year 2018, Poland played 13 matches in different competitions including friendly games, winning only 3 of them. In addition, Poland won 7 games and have drawn 5.
Of course, The Eagles have a great and experienced squad with great perspectives. They can be favorites to go further and take the highest place on the table, however, firstly they need to get up from this bad form and show everything they can.

Kamil Grosicki; Dawid Kownacki; Robert Lewandowski; Arkadiusz Milik; Krzysztof Piatek
Last time these teams met was a long time ago. Then both teams got to the European Championship, however, both remained at 3 and 4 places after losing against Germany and Croatia, although, playing a draw between themselves. Moreover, they met earlier in the qualification for the 2006 World Cup in Germany. At that time, Poland twice beat Austria in resultative matches and eventually got into the main tournament. Both teams have strong and weak sides, however, they should show their passion and desire to be among the greatest teams in the world.

Relocating a data center is not an easy task. Unlike your average business, data centers need to focus on other important considerations, namely, to ensure that customer data is available and accessible during the transition. Meticulous planning and preparation are critical to successful resettlement and it is good to be familiar with the options.
Problem: Our Client wanted to shift his data center from the US to Australia as they have clientele in Australia so they can avoid CDN expense and avoid latency.
• Content such as images and documents are served from a different domain can effect on SEO.
• Difficulty in performing testing when deploying the data.
• Clients might connect from an environment that does not allow access to some resources. This could be a security-constrained environment that limits access to only a set of known sources, or one that prevents loading of resources from anything other than the page origin.
Solution: Firstly our team found out what is going on in the current data center as every computing environment is composed of relationships: applications and systems that influence the function and behavior of other applications and systems.
Then we decided on the migration method for each application. We 'lift and shift' the software, reinstalled the application and migrated the data to the new data center.
Lastly, our team carefully plan and predetermined space for applications in the new network and minimized the latency.
Result: Our team successfully transfers the data-center from the US to Australia in Zero-downtime during the migration process.
No matter which method we use, relocating a data center is a complex process with many moving parts. At NestorOps, our team carefully plans and prepares a paramount for best practices that help in ensuring a successful conclusion. Once the new data center is up and running, the foundation for the expanded company is again on track.
