Q: Using rabbitmq-c as static library gives error: fatal error: amqp.h: No such file or directory I am trying to build rabbitmq-c as a static library so I can use in AWS lambda.
I am able to build the examples following the documentation and those are working fine.
But now I am trying to use in my own project.
Below are the steps I took:

*

*Cloned https://github.com/alanxz/rabbitmq-c inside third-party directory.

*Inside my source directory, I am building using cmake.

Below is my CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.1)

set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON)
set(CMAKE_CXX_EXTENSIONS OFF)
set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE "Release")
project(executable LANGUAGES CXX)

SET(CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES ".a")
SET(BUILD_SHARED_LIBS OFF)

set(RABBITMQ_TARGET "<absolute_path_to_third_party_dir>/third_party/rabbitmq-c/")
add_definitions(-DAMQP_STATIC)
add_subdirectory(${RABBITMQ_TARGET})

include_directories(${LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS})

add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} execute_code.cpp)
target_link_libraries(executable PRIVATE ${RMQ_LIBRARY_TARGET})

*I run cmake .. -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF (which works without any issue).

*But when I am executing make, it gives following error:

fatal error: amqp.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
CMakeFiles/executable.dir/build.make:62: recipe for target 'CMakeFiles/executable.dir/execute_code.cpp.o' failed
make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/executable.dir/execute_code.cpp.o] Error 1
CMakeFiles/Makefile2:169: recipe for target 'CMakeFiles/executable.dir/all' failed
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/executable.dir/all] Error 2
Makefile:129: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2

Here is my execute_code.cpp (I am removing unnecessary code just for here)
#include<iostream>
#include <amqp.h>
#include <amqp_tcp_socket.h>

using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
  char const *hostname;
  int port, status;
  char const *exchange;
  char const *bindingkey;
  amqp_socket_t *socket = NULL;
  amqp_connection_state_t conn;

  amqp_bytes_t queuename;

  conn = amqp_new_connection();
  socket = amqp_tcp_socket_new(conn);
  return 0;
}

when I am not using
#include <amqp.h>
#include <amqp_tcp_socket.h>

I am able to build rabbitmq-static, below is the make response

It is able to generate librabbitmq.a, so it is able to build statically.
I tried with https://github.com/alanxz/rabbitmq-c/releases/tag/v0.10.0 which is the latest stable version. But still the same error.
I tried searching regarding the issue, but couldn't find anything helpful.
I am pretty much newbie to cmake, Can you please tell me what I am doing wrong or am I missing something?

A: The rabbitmq-c repository sets the LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS variable in the rabbitmq-c/librabbitmq sub-directory, then also sets it using PARENT_SCOPE so it is also available in the top-level rabbitmq-c directory. See that code here:

set(LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS
    ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}
    ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}
    ${SOCKET_IMPL}
    ${MSINTTYPES_INCLUDE}
    )

include_directories(${LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS})

set(LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS
    ${LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS}
    PARENT_SCOPE)

However, when you include the rabbitmq-c repo in your project via add_subdirectory, it introduces an additional scope, and the LIBRABBITMQ_INCLUDE_DIRS variable is not available in this parent-parent scope. You will have to either:

*

*Re-organize your CMake project such that your project sits within
the rabbitmq-c repository (although this is not scalable, and probably not what you want to do).

*Modify the top-level rabbitmq-c
CMake file to further extend the scope of this variable.

*Install rabbitmq-c on your machine, and use a CMake Find Module
or a CMake configuration file (e.g. rabbitmq-c-config.cmake)
furnished by rabbitmq-c to locate the installed software.

A: A bit late to the party, I stumbled onto the same issue today.
None of the 3 solutions proposed by Kevin would suit my needs (the lib is declared as a submodule so I can't modify it, won't install on the production machines)
The solution for me was to add rabbitmq include directories to the target that links the lib :
target_include_directories("${PROJECT_NAME}" PUBLIC include/ path/to/rabbitmq-c/librabbitmq)

The Tauroa property was in the Chambers family from 1887 when John Chambers divided the Te Mata station. The present Tauroa was built on the same site as the earlier wooden homestead destroyed by fire in 1914. Thomas Mason Chambers, the owner of Tauroa, had an important role in the history of Havelock North. He was a significant figure in local body politics and the community activities. Chambers and the house he had built, Tauroa are of considerable historical significance to the people and local history of Havelock North.
Tauroa is one of four large country houses designed by Gummer in the Havelock North area over a period of twenty years from 1916. These houses, collectively and singularly make a significant contribution to the history of architectural design in New Zealand. Gummers familiarity with a wide range of styles was exhibited in these houses and they were each quite different.
The design of Tauroa was innovative and far ahead of its time. By his use of sleeping balconies, a court and a pergola, Gummer integrated the architectural interior of the house with nature outside.
It is remarkable that in World War I, a time of scarcity, such a building would have been constructed. Tauroa is a remarkable house by an architect designing works of domestic architecture as advanced as anywhere in the world at that time.
This is a very impressive structure is hidden from the road by an extensive variety of trees. The first view of the house at the end of the tree lined drive is a striking revelation. It is set in a beautiful and extensive garden.
Tauroa is a two-storey homestead consisting of two main arms extending from the focal circular hall - a vestigal butterfly-type plan of the Arts and Crafts movement. The house achieves functional integration with the garden. The arms enclose a courtyard. A pergola, portico and sleeping balconies on the first floor make for easy contact with nature. A change in style occurs when hard white stucco walls, strong geometric shapes and a flat roof look forward to the purity of the modern movement.
There are many outstanding features about Tauroa such as the circular hall of green, brown and cream tiles laid in an intricate mosaic and the main staircase above it where clear leaded windows reach to a height of some six metres. The bannisters are made of jarrah and are supported by wrought ironwork made, on the site, by a local craftsman, McDowell, using a hand operated forge blower. The dining room features some charming bronze figurines that appear to be sliding down the light cords; they show the influence of the Arts and Crafts movement. There is also a beaten copper hood surmounting the fireplace. Throughout the house are the highly individual finger plates which bear the initials T.M.C.
The library is a large room (11.4 metres by 7.3 metres) and has book cases from the floor to ceiling, except where lofty windows and French doors are placed. The book cases have shelves at intervals which slide to make a reading surface. One of the innovations in the design of Tauroa was the provision for a centralised vacuum cleaning system whereby the hose was just plugged into wall outlets. The fittings are all in place but the ship bringing over the motor for the plant sunk so the potential of the idea was never realised.
There has been a slight modification in the music room. On the plan held by the family two piliars are marked and appear to have been removed later - the actual outline of the pillars on the ceiling can be seen.
Another minor modification includes the removal and replacement of one bath with a shower (the only one in the house).
All external walls are constructed in double brick with a cavity. Reinforced concrete columns and beams give the house great strength. Outside walls have a white stucco finish. The interior finishing is jarrah and kauri.


The Hexa pendant light is a design by Bass Vellekoop, in which he used the hexagonal shape of honeycombs. The aluminum parts of the Hexa pendant lights are cut with high-tech lasers, expertly folded and assembled by Bas Vellekoop himself. A bright and attractive design with a height of 34 cm and a diameter of 33 to 36 cm. Available in 3 colors: midnight black, bronze and ocean grey. There must be a nice spot for the Hexa.
The Hexa pendant lights by Bas Vellekoop are the latest designs of a series of lamps based on the structures of beehives and the mathematical shape found in the honeycombs: the regular hexagon. That is a hexagon with six equal sides and six equal angles. A distinctive and recognizable shape that you recognize easily in the Hexa lamp. The aluminum parts of the Hexa pendant lights are cut with high-tech lasers, expertly folded and assembled by Bas Vellekoop himself. The Hexa pendant lights are 34 cm high and have a diameter of 33 to 36 cm. Available in 3 colors: midnight black, bronze and ocean grey. There are also Hexa table lamps in 2 sizes in the same colors. All 100% Dutch design and produced in the Netherlands.
After he graduated in 2010 at the Royal Academy of art in the Hague, Bas Vellekoop (1985) started his own studio in the same city. Over the last years he has put his focus on product design. In his work Bas Vellekoop strives for honest and authentic designs. His label is known for the simplicity in detailing and construction. The construction is visible and is an essential part of the design. He makes his designs from the intrinsic motivation to make his living environment more enjoyable: "Already from an early age I watch my environment with a critical look. Already with the thought: how would I make this myself? " Different designs of Bas Vellekoop are successfully put into production, such as the tables Fold and Stringer and the Quintus and Hexa lighting.

Netflix indicted by Texas grand jury for 'lewd' depiction of children in 'Cuties'
by: WFLA 8 On Your Side Staff and Nexstar Media Wire
Posted: Oct 6, 2020 / 06:47 PM EDT / Updated: Oct 6, 2020 / 06:47 PM EDT
This image released by Netflix shows the cast of the coming-of-age film "Cuties," streaming Wednesday, Sept. 9. (Netflix via AP)
TYLER COUNTY, Texas (WFLA) — Netflix, Inc. has been indicted by a grand jury in Texas for distributing and promoting the film "Cuties," which the state says sexualizes preteen girls.
The grand jury for Tyler County said Netflix knowingly promoted "visual material which depicts the lewd exhibition of the genitals or pubic area of a clothed or partially clothed child" under the age of 18.
The film's controversial material gained traction on social media shortly after its release on Netflix early in September. About a week after its release, the hashtag #CancelNetflix trended across platforms.
#CancelNetflix trends over claims 'Cuties' film sexualizes children
The film's creator, Maimouna Doucoure, said she made the film to spotlight the dangers social media has on pre-teens who think they need to sexualize themselves to get attention.
Critics of the film say "Cuties" defeats the whole purpose when it depicts the girls in the same sexualized manner.
Netflix defends the film as "social commentary against the sexualization of young children."
The indictment says the lewd depiction of underage girls in "Cuties" has no serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value.

Former supermodel revealed last week that she is battling breast cancer.
Just days after revealing that she has breast cancer, Janice Dickinson opened up about the battle ahead.
"I used to obsess over image. I'm the world's first supermodel. I've been in front of cameras. I will never keep quiet when something is bothering me. I'm a fighter," she told "The Doctors," airing Wednesday.
"I'm not the type of woman to fall apart but it's nothing to downplay."
The former supermodel, 61, went public with her breast cancer diagnosis last week.
"I haven't been feeling myself for the past several months. I knew something was wrong," she said in the 3-minute clip from "The Doctors."
"My internist gave me the initial breast examination. She felt something. She said 'Something here doesn't feel right.' She felt a lump," Dickinson recalled. "I have been very regular with mammograms. After comprehensive tests from four specialists, the doctor said point blank, 'You are positive for cancer.'"
The former America's Next Top Model judge took the news especially hard, having lost her mother to cancer.
"It's shocking. Everything hit me at once. My mother died of cancer, so I know how bad I felt when I heard about my mother," Dickinson said. "My son broke down. Honestly I haven't cried in about 30 years, and just lately I'm tearful because I felt fear for the first time. And I don't get scared. I kind of lost it."
At the same time, she's excited about the future despite the battle ahead.
"I want to see my daughter walk down the aisle and I want grandchildren, and I want to get married with Rocky, my fiancé, who's a doctor," she said.
She also had a message for other women battling breast cancer: "Please sisters have regular breast examinations. I can be emotional and happy and sad and afraid but I'm not alone. I now await surgery."

Following the conclusion of Japanorama: New Vision on Art Since 1970, curated by Yuko Hasegawa at the Centre Pompidou-Metz in late 2017, the museum has acquired Kishio Suga's Law of Peripheral Units, 1997.
Originally conceived for the artist's 1997–1998 retrospective, which traveled from the Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art to three other institutions in Japan, this work was installed in the Pompidou-Metz's atrium, where it served as the opening act to Hasegawa's critically acclaimed exhibition spanning visual arts, design, fashion, performance art, and music.


Situated in the northern part of Thailand and surrounded admist the beautiful mountains is the city of Chiang Mai. For long Chiang Mai had been a pick of a destination for travelers around the world.
People usually visit northern Thailand on a very short trip. I'll suggest if you do have a long itinerary in Thailand, spend 5 to 6 days in Chaing Mai to truly absorb the eclectic atmosphere of this beautiful city.
Apart from several of the attractions, if you truly want to explore the soul of Chiang Mai, I will advise you to learn Thai cooking. You can join one of the cooking class in Chiang mai and hon your Thai culinary skills!
If you're are a market lover, the Chiang Mai Sunday Night Market is a must visit and essential to any Thailand bucket list. This bustling market is where you will find tourist and locals alike every Sunday evening and trust me it will not disappoint!
The busy stalls are set up over a one kilometer distance along Ratchadamnoen Road, as well as the side streets and Tha Phae Gate. Starting at 4 pm until late this is the place to be and a common highlight for tourists in Chiang Mai. You will need to prepare yourself for semi organised chaos as the streets are completely filled with people.
You will definitely need to set aside a good couple hours as there is plenty to explore. Whether you are wanting to buy a delicious street food dinner, some cheap souvenirs to take home, a street side foot massage or to be entertained by performances from locals there is something for everyone here.
Just remember to practice you're haggling skills beforehand as you will certainly need to put them into practice during your visit to the Chiang Mai Sunday Night Markets. Just remember to organise your Thailand trip to be in Chiang Mai over a Sunday evening or you might just regret it!
Who doesn't love elephants and spending time with elephants in Thailand is an essential experience. If you are a mindful traveler like me I will suggest you should opt for a non riding elephant experience in Chiang Mai.
Just a short drive from Chiang Mai and you enter this wonderful rescued elephants sanctuary where as the name suggests, people do their best to keep the elephants happy and healthy. No riding or lifting, only feeding, bathing and having a great time with these amazing animals. I spent half day there and the journey started with dressing up in typical clothing and meeting the carers, who showed us how to prepare food for the elephants.
After chopping them some bamboo sticks, we all got very excited about feeding the giant creatures, which were very keen on taking every single piece from our hands. They even got brave enough to serve themselves directly from our bags and rewarded us with kind looks . Spending at least half a day is recommended because time flies when you've got such a good company.
After feeding them we went for a walk, they know well the way towards the river, one of their favorite places, where not only the elephants but all participants, including the carers would get in the water in a heartbeat and splash each other for a cool down. Everybody enjoys this activity, in particular the baby elephants, that are pure joy to watch how they make the most of the refreshing after meal treat.
Happy Elephants Home is special because the carers truly put heart in caring for the rescued elephants and provide the best care that I've seen in Thailand. Really a unique and memorable experience, that will bring a smile on your face for a long time after.
Chiang Mai, the once capital of the ancient northern Thai Lanna Kingdom, is one of the most popular destinations in Thailand. Including domestic tourists, over 10 million people visit Chiang Mai every year, and some even say it is the country's cultural capital. Chiang Mai's most prominent feature is its wide assortment of unique and visually stunning places of Buddhist worship, most of which date to the Lanna Kingdom.
There are so many temples in Chiang Mai, that for many temple hopping is one of the best things to do in Chiang Mai.
Even though many visitors use Chiang Mai as a base for visiting other places in Northern Thailand, you could easily spend a week or more in the city just exploring these gorgeous temples. If you could only choose one, make it Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, on a mountain overlooking the city. It is one of the holiest places in all of Thailand, and you can see the sun's rays reflecting from its golden chedi from most places in the city far below.
Outside of the Old City walls, be sure to check out Wat Suan Dok, with its mesmerizing collection of white chedis, the silver temple at Wat Sri Suphan, and the magical forest temple of Wat U Mong.
The sunrise at Phu Chi Fa is one experience that must be on your Thailand bucket list. This is no doubt the most incredible sunrise in the entire country. Seriously. Phu Chi Fa is located in the north east of Chiang Rai Province, the northernmost province in Thailand. The peak itself it about 90km (2hr drive) from the town of Chiang Rai. To catch the sunrise people either leave Chiang Rai at 3.30am, or spend the night at the town right by Phu Chi Fa.
Around 5.30am in the morning you will find travellers climbing the steep, slippery dirt trail to the top of the lookout. The trail will be dark, so you will need to bring a torch to find your way to the top.
When the sun comes it, you will have an incredible view over Laos, blanketed under a 'sea of clouds' in the valley. Across the clouds you will notice the peaks of other mountains such as Doi Patang and Phi Chi Dao which can be explored later in the day.
I've personally been to Phu Chi Fa three times, and it has never disappointed. Though I've also heard you can get a bad luck day where the clouds rise and block the view. To make sure you get the sunrise view, plan to spend two mornings up here.

Conor McGregor backs Khabib Nurmagomedov conspiracy theory ahead of UFC fight with Dustin Poirier
Nurmagomedov beat Justin Gaethje last October but questions surrounding his weigh-in the day before the fight took place
Martin Domin
Conor McGregor has questioned whether Khabib Nurmagomedov made weight for his fight with Justin Gaethje last year.
The undefeated Russian has long struggled to make the 155lb lightweight limit and looked nervous before stepping on the scale last October.
Nurmagomedov needed a towel to make weight but a conspiracy theory later emerged with critics claiming footage showed the scale was not set properly and that the lightweight champion jumped off too quickly, reports The Mirror.
He went on to submit Gaethje in the third round to retain his title before announcing his retirement following his 29th victory.
Nurmagomedov will hold talks with UFC president Dana White this week to determine whether he will stay true to his word.

Dana White sends second warning to fans who plan to illegally stream Conor McGregor v Dustin Poirier
McGregor, meanwhile, will also be in Abu Dhabi ahead of his rematch with Dustin Poirier next weekend.
And he has added his voice to the dubious chorus around Nurmagomedov's weight issues.
"He's looking like an elephant, he's looking like a little fat elephant," he told The MacLife.
"He's enjoying himself, I don't think he made weight the last time either, I was very sceptical, it was very unusual behaviour."
Nurmagomedov retains the lightweight title despite insisting he will not return.
And even if he gives it up after speaking to White, it will not be on the line when McGregor takes on Poirier.
Should the Irishman beat his rival for a second time, he will likely challenge for the belt in his next fight.
Possible opponents include Charles Oliviera and the winner of the UFC 257 co-main event between Dan Hooker and Michael Chandler.
And he added: "I'm here to compete against good competition and the belts will come, maybe the next bout is fair.
"I would have liked to see it for this fight but there were circumstances around the man scurrying away; they've given him a bit of time."

Adam Ondra (føt 5. februar 1993) er en tjekkisk professionel klippeklatrer, der er specialiseret i sportsklatring og bouldering. Tidsskriftet Rock & Ice beskrev i 2013 Ondra som et vidunderbarn og den dygtigste klatrer i sin generation. Ondra er den eneste mandlige atlet, der har vundet World Championship titler i begge discipliner samme år (2014), og han er også den eneste mandlige atlet, der har vundet World Cup-serien i begge discipliner (sportsklatring i 2009, 2015 og 2019, og bouldering i 2010).

Ondra begyndte at klatre i en alder af 6 år. Da han var 13 klatrede han sin første 9a-rute. I 2011 rapporterede Rock & Ice at Ondra "onsightede håndfulde af 5.14c'ere", og i 2013 havde "mere eller mindre gentaget alle svære ruter i verden — med lethed". I november 2018 havde Ondra klatret 1550 ruter med en sværhedsgrad på mellem 8a og 9c, hvoraf én var 9c, tre var 9b+ og tre var 9a som han klatrede onsight.

Ondra er den første klatrer, der har redpointet en rute med den foreslåede sværhedsgrad 9c (Silence, 3. september, 2017), den første klatrer der har redpointet en rute med en foreslået sværhedsgrad på 9b+ (Change, 4. oktober, 2012), den første der har flashet en 9a+ rute (Supercrackinette, 10. februar, 2018), og den anden til at have klatret en 9a rute onsight (Cabane au Canada, 9. juli, 2013). Ifølge The Economist bliver Ondra "betragtet som muligvis den bedste klatrer der nogensinde har kærtegnet klipper".

The euro is nearly on parity with the US dollar, which means the bargains in Europe are there for the taking. What better bargain could you find than a castle? Yes, your very own castle.
All is not perfect, of course. You would be the proud owner of a pile in County Antrim, but if you are part of the Irish diaspora that fled Ireland to escape Protestant rule, this could be your best chance at revenge for your unfortunate ancestors. Antrim was once the seat of the clan O'Neill, but the native Irish were booted off their land so that the Ulster Plantation could take root and wash out Irish culture. Wouldn't your people be proud of you if you re-inserted a little piece of Irish-Catholic culture back again?
A man's home could literally be his castle if he had one million dollars on hand, plus a little loose change to cover the difference. As mansion go, it almost sounds too good to be true. But, again, this is in Antrim and not London or New York City.
Craigdun is the second castle to sit on the site, with the original castle torn down in the 1860s. The stones, however, were recycled, so in a way you'd be getting something from the time of James I.
At one time, the occupant of Craigdun was a fierce unionist who once threw a book at his nemesis, Winston Churchill. How delightful would it be to accept the keys to your new abode and then promptly have the local parish priest come in to exorcise that particular demon?
And it would not require much sacrifice to move in. The home has been renovated and brought up to modern standards, making it eminently comfortable for an old house. At the same time, the gardens maintain the feel of baronial splendor, where you could walk in the evening and imagine that you, too, are a lord of the manor.
Looking for an investment? The castle is currently used for destination weddings and appeals to those looking for a unique venue for their party. Book enough groups and you could pay the mortgage from outside income, while keeping an apartment for yourself. It's how it's done these days, to make such places affordable.

Andy Murray set for grand slam return at Australian Open
Murray's singles comeback will take him to Melbourne in January.
Andy Murray will be welcomed back to the Australian Open in January a year after the tournament bade him an emotional farewell.
Tournament director Craig Tiley confirmed the former world number one, who can enter events using a protected ranking of two, will be in Melbourne for the first grand slam of 2020.
"For sure Andy will be here," Tiley told Australian radio station Triple M on Tuesday. "I was on the phone to his agent this morning. He is going to be in Australia early.
"He is ready to return. Remember he said goodbye a year ago. It's great in that period he had surgery and has rebounded really well."
The former world number one had career-saving hip surgery earlier this year and continued his good progress by reaching the China Open quarter-finals last week.
He battled to another victory over Argentinian, Juan Ignacio Londero, in the first round of the Shanghai Masters on Monday and was due to face Fabio Fognini in the second round on Tuesday.
It was at the Australian Open earlier this year that Murray finally made public the full extent of his hip problems and tearfully announced that he was contemplating retirement.
He raised the possibility of undergoing a resurfacing operation – which he did at the end of January – but that did not stop the tournament playing a video of his fellow stars bidding him farewell moments after he had told the crowd he hoped to be back.
It was undoubtedly a little awkward but, speaking to reporters in Shanghai, Murray said: "The good thing about when I watched it was I really saw this is a major surgery. Things can go wrong, this is not always very successful.
"It was important for me to watch that because when you're younger you think you're going to be fine."
Andy Murray has shown encouraging form and fitness in Asia (Mark Schiefelbein/AP)
Murray made his singles comeback in August after playing doubles for two months and, although it is still early days, his form in Asia indicates that a return to the top of the game is not impossible.
He will compete in Antwerp next week and then could take a break before the Davis Cup finals in Madrid in November, where he is set to be part of the British team.
The Scot will kick off the 2020 season by representing his country again at the inaugural ATP Cup in Australia.

Q: Prove $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} P(X \geq k) = E[X]$ for any discrete random variable with nonnegative values. The hint for this problem that is given in the book is to write $P(X \geq k)$ as $\sum_{i=k}^{\infty} P(X = i)$ and then switch the order of summation but I have no idea how to continue from there. This would leave me with $$ \sum_{i=k}^{\infty} \sum_{k=1}^{\infty} P(X = i)$$.

A: Great, now try to rearrange terms in your last expression to equate that sum to the definition of expectation for such random variables.
$$E[X] = \sum_{j=1}^\infty j P(X=j).$$

From the Editor: What We Can Learn From Bhopal
Bhopal, Photo: openDemocracy
"It's a wonderful American tradition: you always clean up the mess you made."
That's the last line of the first paragraph of writer Suketu Mehta's op-ed about the 25th anniversary of the Bhopal gas disaster, published in yesterday's New York Times.
In that paragraph, Mehta's describing the difference between his son's kindergarten class in Mumbai–where servants cleaned up after the kids–to the same child's first grade classroom in Brooklyn, "where the teachers made the children tidy up at the end of the day."
In elementary school, at least, Americans get it right: We have to take responsibility for our actions. We have to clean up after ourselves.
But what happens, Mehta insinuates, between that fundamental lesson of childhood and our supposed maturity into adulthood?
The anecdote is a lead-in to Mehta's meditation on the 25th anniversary of the Bhopal gas disaster. The short version of that story is this: the American chemical company, Union Carbide, had a pesticide plant in India that belched out a poisonous chemical cloud over Bhopal.
Four thousand people were killed instantly, and according to Mehta:
"An additional 15,000 people have since died from the aftereffects, and 10 to 30 people are said to die every month from exposure to the hundreds of tons of toxic waste left over in the former factory."
That news would be devastating enough to any sentient being, but what Mehta goes on to note–and how it all ties in with his opening anecdote about the "wonderful American tradition"–is the real kicker: Union Carbide (subsequently bought by Dow) never cleaned up the contamination.
It's disgusting, but hardly surprising and definitely not an anomaly. This year alone, we've written here on Change about a string of similar incidents, mostly perpetrated by big oil.
It's easy to finger wag or wring one's hands or bitch about mega-corporations' greed and irresponsibility. But none of that does much–if any–good. And in some ways, we're complicit with their actions.
"What's missing in the whole sad story," Mehta concludes, "is any sense of a human connection between the faceless people who run the corporation and the victims."
He goes on to tell a story about a woman from Bhopal who wrote a letter to Union Carbide after losing her husband and her son to the company's negligence:
"[P]ut your hand on your heart and think…if you are a human being, if this happened to you, how would your wife and children feel?"
Mehta says the woman never received a response. That's not surprising either.
It's tempting to read Mehta's op-ed or other accounts of the Bhopal disaster, shake our heads, and move on. We always do… it's our normal, default position, a self-protective action to keep us from totally breaking under the weight of the world's problems.
But what if, instead, we decided not simply to move on? We can't, perhaps, change the corporatocracy. But what we can do, every single day, is think about how our own personal choices and actions affect other people.
We can clean up after ourselves.

Q: Python Animation of projectile giving straight line The goal is to animate/simulate a sprinkler. The basic idea is to create multiple droplets at an instance, each exiting the sprinkler at a different angle.
However, instead of having a point that moves along, I'm getting a straight, static line. I've tried the same code with only one or 2 drops/points, but I still get the same straight line. At first I thought it was because I included drag into the animation (in previous trials I got strange/unexpected results when I included the drag, so I was hoping it was the same problem)
Below is the code I wrote.
EDIT: dragx and dragy are no longer set to the same values. The initial velocities are calculated outside the update function.
Drag forces are recalculated at each index increase, since the drag depends on the velocity.
The imports are also now included.
I have also now tried to use a scatter plot instead of a line, which gave me a single dot at the origin. I reverted back to the line since then

A: In addition to the mistakes pointed out by @JohanC, you are using the surface area (4 * pi * r^2) instead of the cross-sectional area (pi * r^2) of the water droplets (approximated as spheres). Furthermore, you appear to be trying to using equations of motion which assume a vacuum, those equations break down when air resistance or other nonconstant forces are added.
I would recommend you read this answer for a more complete explanation of calculating ballistic projectile motion with air resistance, but here is a simplified version.
Calculating the position of a particle moving through a medium is essentially solving a first order ODE, there are many ways to solve such an equation numerically. The simplest (albeit least robust) way is to break the problem into small segments and approximate the change from the current point to the next point. For this problem such a method works quite well, assuming you use a small enough time step.
In your case we could do something like this
import matplotlib
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

This may not produce exactly what you are after but it correctly models the motion of the water droplets.

Implementing the drops as a class and storing them in a list as I have makes it easy to create more droplets to simulate many 'iterations' of the above by simply modifying the update function (create method added for simplicity):
    def update(self,frame):  # Use set_offsets to move the water drops
        # Create between 0 and ndrops new drops, but only until tend-maxt
        if time[frame] < tend - self.maxt*1.1:
            self.create(np.random.randint(0, ndrops))
        self.step()          # Advance to the next 'step'
        self.scat.set_offsets(np.stack([[d.pos[0] for d in self.drops],
                                        [d.pos[1] for d in self.drops]], 1))

        return self.scat,

    def create(self, i):
        for ii in range(i):
            self.drops.append(drop([0.0, 0.0], [cos(np.random.random()*np.pi)*v0,
                             sin(np.random.random()*np.pi)*v0],

arg... i edited the poll and so I deleted the rating. damn.
Anyone else see the Tupac hologram on stage with Snoop Dogg? It looks pretty real. It's great.
i know! i think its finally the future!
I give it two years tops before Queen are touring with a hologram of Freddie Mercury.
Heck, I think I can make a list on how many dead musicians need to be made into holograms lol.
Well guys, welcome to the 21rst century!
Anyways, with that kind of technology, they will probably make holograms of bands/musicians who died a long, long time ago...so there will be plenty of reunion tours! Like The Beatles, The Doors, Nirvana, Elvis Presley, Sublime, Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix....yeah, I think that's enough for now lol.
I think it's fair to say Kurt Cobain would have absolutely hated the idea of "coming back" as a hologram, so I doubt we'll ever see that one.
Sure, Courtney Love might go for it. Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic almost certainly wouldn't though, and I don't see the appeal of a hologram of Kurt solo.
Hip Hop lends itself to this sort of thing much easier, too. Nirvana were often ragged as hell live, and that was part of the appeal. You can't program in the kind of fuckups Kurt regularly made, and he wasn't half the showman that Tupac is in the first place. I can see a lot of people wanting to jump on the hologram bandwagon, but Nirvana is one that I really don't see happening.
and If you like Green Day, what do you think about the coming release of 3 albums in a row?
Never liked Billy Talent in the first place. Green Day should have split up ten years ago so we could remember them as the fantastic punk band they were instead of the dumb sloganeering corporate cookie-cutter they've turned into.
particularly, you're right. The best Green day albums are 1,039 smoothed out sloppy hours & Warning.
the newer ones are good too. But they`re different.
Yea, it luckily does not have to happen.

Five Most Unique Best Fake Watches
In fine watchmaking or fine watchmaking, the real estate reserve is just a set of luxury timepieces.
Some counterfeit timepieces will price outside the market or planned as part of a weird, abstract, or downright unrealistic collection.
All these strange qualities blend well in what we might call the unique luxury watch on earth.
Curious to see what some of them are? The following are our five selected best fake Rolex watches.
Fake Jaeger Lecoultre Hybris Mechanicaà Grande Sonnerie
The best site for fake watches is one of the most expensive watches in the world and one of the most complicated watches. Hybris Mechanica has carefully crafted and configured more than 1300 parts to achieve extremely high synchronization, so there is no competitor.
Jaeger Lecoultre is proud of carefully crafting each timepiece by hand. Therefore, no two watches are absolutely the same.
In this case, Hybris Mechanica called a cat with 26 complications. As for the additional benefits of the glittering gold, it shielded in an 18k white gold case with a clock length of 44mm. For bells and whistles, it has a backup battery life of 50 hours.
Zanis and Company Nuvati floating diamonds best fake watches reddit
Finally, Zanis Nuvati launched a Kickstarter campaign for his ambitious timepiece series.
However, when considering the meaning and essence of the word "luxury", it not strictly reserved for the most expensive people. It also takes into account the peculiar pleasures that sometimes the only luxury can allow customers to enjoy in life. Enter Nuvati floating diamond fake watch.
It made of the moon, Mars, and diamonds. It is a timepiece. And it is sporadic in terms of raw materials. There is a small capsule bubble at the bottom of the dial, which contains three small stones.
What are these? A space gemstone that may be a meteorite hangs from the moon, and the other comes from Mars.
As for the technical characteristics, Nuvati has a Swiss quartz movement. It is a limited edition timepiece with a concept retail price of approximately $2,000.
However, given Zanis and Company's unfortunate history of hacking (their website now flooded with video game content), purchasing one of these timepieces may result in a much higher price than its original retail price.
Faced with reality, not every Omega or Richard Mille boutique has a space rock series on Mars.
Patek Philippe 1939 World Time Fake Watch
What are the best fake Rolex watches, this may be the rarest fake watch on earth, this is a non-repetitive clock. Familiar with Patek Philippe's 1939 world time phony watch.
In fact, according to the source, there is only such a timepiece. Patek Philippe is famous for planning some of the world's most expensive replica watches, all of which are handmade.
The Swiss watchmaker has a limited circulation and limited stocks, both of which have contributed to its sky-high prices.
Some of the most expensive homes of the best fake Rolex watches online in Patek Philippe's appearance books cost more than $11 million. And the 1939 World Time fake watch made of platinum and sold for $4 million in 2002. But there will never be.
At one time, more than 20 craftsmen worked on Patek Philippe watches. Drawing such works may take up to 2 years. But we can see from the fake Rolex watches best image that the dial and case are platinum.
The belt and leather strap are even more straightforward. Accurately display the date, hour, minute, and second hand. Every place on the planet worth visiting is worthy of due respect.
However, despite this, this is a brand that has always remained transparent in its motto: "Even if it is capable, not everyone can own Patek Philippe."
Patek Philippe Henry Graves Supercomplication Pocket Watch
Speaking of the $11 million worth of best websites to buy fake Rolex watches mentioned in the Patek Philippe Archives, the Henry Graves super-complexity watch was the most complicated.
The pocket watch has 24 complex functions and made of fantastic gold. It commissioned by the banker Henry Graves Jr in 1927.
He wanted the most complicated pocket watch and eventually grabbed the limelight from his rival Thomas Ward Packard and his respective Grande Complication pocket watch.
The super complex function takes four years. When Sotheby's auctioned it, it valued at $5 million. Later, there were several bids, twice the original price, known as one of the world's most expensive timepieces.
The super-complexity case made of 18k gold and has become the most complicated best website to order fake Rolex watches in the world for 50 consecutive years. Its many sophisticated features and functions include sunset and sunrise times, a map of New York's Fifth Avenue as seen from Graves' apartment, and a perpetual calendar.
Devonworks' first timepiece was a miracle of engineering and NASA technology.
Eventually, it became a brand of an aerospace supplier, known for its continually developing futuristic timepieces, and even paid tribute to Star Wars.
Where can I buy the best fake watches, here, all the stops pulled apart by a timepiece, and the clock will lift its lid to reveal the secret behind its magic power.
The fake Tread 1 is called a microprocessor and is used to monitor all its movements and activities. It equipped with a lithium polymer rechargeable battery that can retain two weeks of charge on a single charge.
Its crystals present data through temperature monitoring and optical recognition. And it stays within half a second of accuracy.
The exoskeleton shows the complex internal working principle of its time zone and the incredible and straightforward mechanical choreography. Behind the scenes of Devon, timepieces are some of the best and smartest.

Q: assetsLibrary a simple bug? I am really lost .
why i get NSLog twice for each UIImage ?
 //------ get the images from the camera roll ----------
    assets=[[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
    NSMutableArray *cameraRollPictures=[[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
    ALAssetsLibrary *assetsLibrary = [[ALAssetsLibrary alloc] init];
    [assetsLibrary enumerateGroupsWithTypes:ALAssetsGroupSavedPhotos usingBlock:^(ALAssetsGroup *group, BOOL *stop)
    {

        NSInteger numberOfAssets = [group numberOfAssets];
        NSLog(@"NUM OF IMAGES:%d",numberOfAssets);
        if (numberOfAssets > 0)
        {

            for (int i = 0; i <= numberOfAssets-1; i++)
            {

                [group enumerateAssetsAtIndexes:[NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndex:i] options:0 usingBlock:^(ALAsset *result, NSUInteger index, BOOL *stop)
                 {
                    UIImage *thumbnail = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:[result thumbnail]];
                    [assets addObject:thumbnail];
                     NSLog(@"theObject!!!! -- (%d) %@",i,thumbnail);

            //******* for each i its here twice !!   ********

                }];
            }
        }

A: For some reason, enumerateAssetsAtIndexes (and enumerateAssetsUsingBlock) do an additional invocation of the block  with result == nil and index == NSNotFound at the end of the enumeration. This becomes obvious if you change the NSLog() to
NSLog(@"i=%d, index=%ld, result=%@", i, (unsigned long)index, result);

Then you will get the output
NUM OF IMAGES:2
i=0, index=0, result=ALAsset - Type:Photo, URLs:assets-library://asset/asset.PNG?id=...
i=0, index=2147483647, result=(null)
i=1, index=1, result=ALAsset - Type:Photo, URLs:assets-library://asset/asset.PNG?id=...
i=1, index=2147483647, result=(null)

Therefore you have to check the value of result and ignore a nil value:
for (int i = 0; i <= numberOfAssets-1; i++) {
     [group enumerateAssetsAtIndexes:[NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndex:i] options:0 usingBlock:^(ALAsset *result, NSUInteger index, BOOL *stop)
      {
          if (result != nil) {
              UIImage *thumbnail = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:[result thumbnail]];
              [assets addObject:thumbnail];
          }
      }];
}

Note that you can simplify the enumeration to
[group enumerateAssetsUsingBlock:^(ALAsset *result, NSUInteger index, BOOL *stop) {
     if (result != nil) {
         UIImage *thumbnail = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:[result thumbnail]];
         [assets addObject:thumbnail];
     }
}];

Contrary to popular belief, cruises to Australia aren't just Sydney. You can't blame people for this misconception – Sydney and Australian Cruising are so tied together they're practically Siamese twins.
Google Australia Cruises. The Sydney opera house with a cruise ship gliding under Harbour Bridge in the foreground is what you'll see time and time again. Sydney is a vital experience for cruisers, but Australasia is a continent ill-defined by just a single city.
Whether it's the wilds of Tasmania or the boutiques of Melbourne, there's a port of call for everyone on cruises to Australia. If you've never been to Sydney, go, just go. Sell your house if need be and head straight there. But those who've experienced the capital and want more to explore, consider this your definitive guide to the off-beat charms of Australia.
Tasmania is an island of contrasts. In one regard it's one of the most untamed regions of Australasia, defined by its bush lands and rugged cliff faces. On the other, you have modern, innovative communities making an indelible mark in the culture of the island state. The unfortunate thing is, whether you see Tasmania as a wild paradise or a chic retreat, it's often overlooked on many cruises to Australia.
Burnie is a prime example of why you should make the crossing to Tasmania in the first place. Situated on the North West Coast and cloistered within the Emu Bay, refreshing breezes move through the town during the summer months, giving a relaxing edge to its varied beaches and waterfronts – take that into account when you're trying to avoid grilling like a well- marinated shrimp in the height of the summer season.
As much as the natural aspects surrounding Burnie are well worth discovering, its close-knit township is a creative hub which attracts people from all over Australia. Galleries, performances and exhibitions abound make Burnie a surprising delight to encounter on cruises to Australia.
Sydney might take the crown for being ubiquitous in the travel magazines, but Melbourne is considered top dog when it comes to Australian culture. The criss-crossing districts of the second city have an historical core, which unlike many typical 'old towns' have a youthful population reinvigorating the Victorian architecture.
The finest shopping, the largest museums and the best theatres all seem to spring up within Melbourne, but the real altar of worship for Melbournians is sports. Australian Rules football is a veritable religion in these parts, so the atmosphere at the games is electric to say the least.
Connecting all of this is the iconic Yarra River, the lifeblood of the city. Bike trails cross to and fro over the waters, connecting some of the trendiest districts in Australia. The boutiques might be overwhelmingly hip, but Melbournians are unbelievably down to earth. Even if it is sacrilege to say that Aussie rules isn't the 'real' football.
The epitome of a cruise destination, the Whitsunday Islands are the thrill seekers capital of Australia, but they're just a comfortable with cocktail supping beach combers taking up residence as well. Just miles away from the Great Barrier Reef, many tourists take advantage of the sumptuous resorts dotted amongst the Whitsunday Islands as a home base to visit the scuba centre of the world, forgetting about the uninhabited beauty of the more isolated islets further afield.
By chartering a private boat, you can circumvent the tourist traps and find yourself on pure white beaches where you are the only sunbather, framed by towering palm trees in the bright sunshine. Hopping between the islands is a must, as you never know when you're going to stumble across your dream landscape. A perfect example of the wild but chic charms of a riveting continent, the Whitsunday Islands optimise the contrasting wonder of cruises to Australia.


On Thursday 16th June outside in Centre Square (map here) a vigil will be held to show solidarity for our LGBT friends in Orlando.
It is scheduled for 5pm and people are asked to come and stand to remember those who have been killed and wounded. Please bring candles and rainbow flags.

This is a review of a split ep between Chile's Animus Mortis and Spain's Empty called "Invocations From The Innominute Void" which was released by Nebular Carcoma Records and we will start off the review with Animus Mortis a band that has been featured before in this zine and plays a very cold and desolate form of black metal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very dark, melodic and raw black metal sound along with some grim screams before going into a faster direction that also utilizes a great amount of blast beats and the music also brings in a great amount of atmospheric elements and the songs also use a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, the production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Hermetic themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Animus Mortis and if you are a fan of cold, desolate and atmospheric black metal, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Hermetic Axioma".
Next up is Empty a band that plays a depressive form of black metal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very fast and raw black metal sound that also utilizes a great amount of blast beats before slowing down and adding in grim screams that also get depressive at times and melodies and you can also hear all of the musical instruments that are present on their side of the recording and both of their songs bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and there is also a brief use of spoken word parts as well as some atmospheric sounds and clean playing, the production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover emptiness, despair, solitude and negativity themes.
In my opinion Empty are a very great sounding depressive black metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACK "The Most Silent Of All Hours".
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and I would recommend it to all fans of atmospheric and depressive black metal. 8 out of 10.

Chiral/Nightsky/2015 Full Length Review
Chiral are a solo project from Italy that has been featured before in this zine and plays a very raw, melodic, atmospheric, and progressive form of post black metal on this recording and this is a review of his self released 2015 album "Nightsky" which will be released on September 10th.
Nature sounds start off the album along with some acoustic guitars that use both full chords and finger picking as w ell as adding a touch of neo folk to the recording which also sets up the mood for more of a heavy and progressive style of black metal that also uses grim sounding screams and most of the tracks are very long and epic in length..
When solos and leads are utilized they are in more of a melodic post black metal direction and the songs are also perfectly balanced between both acoustic and heavy parts and you can also hear harmonica's briefly and there is also a small amount of whispers being utilized at times and when synths are brought onto the recording they give the music more of an epic and atmospheric sound.
When the music speeds up blast beats are added onto the recording and they also give the music more of a raw black metal feeling and the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and some songs also bring in symphonic and classical music elements and some of the slower sections display influences of melodic doom metal and one track also brings in a brief use of spoken word parts.
Chiral creates a very diverse recording with this album taking the raw, melodic, atmospheric and post styles of black metal and mixing it in with elements of progressive and folk music to create a very original sound, the production sounds very powerful for being a self released recording while the lyrics cover introspection, nature, solitude, pain, death and love themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Chiral and if you are a fan of the atmospheric, post and cascadian styles of black metal, you should enjoy this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "I, Everblack Fields" and "Beneath the Snow And Fllen leaves". 8 out of 10.

Q: Getting an error converting from varchar to numeric I made a historical table along with a trigger function built in the reference table. Is based on possible name changes for an user and as well recording down the date.
My trigger built:

Target table:

The trigger function pulls the names off the table.

But I'm getting error converting data type. All my data that I'm updating are of VARCHAR type. Where am I missing?

A: Change the INSERT..VALUES statement to INSERT..SELECT and set aliases for all the columns. Make sure the aliases match the every column in the target table (defaulting all NOT NULL columns), and they are in the same order as they are declared.
Note that the SELECT statement uses the patientLastNameChange table, because the MAX() without a GROUP BY ensures only one row is returned.
I recommend to use COALESCE to set the MAX() result to 0 if it returns NULL. Then simply add 1 to increment the lastNameChangeID. I think this is more readable.
CREATE TRIGGER patientLastNameChangeTrigger
ON patient
AFTER UPDATE
AS
BEGIN
    DECLARE @oldLastName VARCHAR(255) = (SELECT pt_lastName FROM DELETED);
    DECLARE @newLastName VARCHAR(255) = (SELECT pt_lastName FROM INSERTED);

    IF @oldLastName <> @newLastName
        INSERT INTO dbo.patientLastNameChange (lastnameChangeID, patientID, oldLastName, newLastName, datechanged)
        SELECT
        COALESCE(MAX(plnc.lastnameChangeID),0)+1 AS lastnameChangeID,
        (SELECT patientID FROM INSERTED) AS patientID,
        @oldLastName AS oldLastName,
        @newLastName AS newLastName,
        GETDATE() AS datechanged
        FROM patientLastNameChange plnc;

BERLIN (Reuters) - Half of Germans are concerned the surging number of asylum seekers in the country is overwhelming them and authorities, a survey showed on Thursday, underlining widespread unease about the country's ability to cope with an unprecedented influx.
Germany is the European Union's biggest recipient of asylum seekers, with the number expected to quadruple to 800,000 this year. Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere has said Germany can cope with such a surge this year but not in the longer term.
The poll on the "Fears of the Germans" for R+V insurance firm was conducted before that drastically revised forecast became public so the number of Germans harboring concerns about the refugee crisis would probably have been far higher had it been conducted later, political scientist Manfred Schmidt said.
Germans in the former Communist east, where unemployment is generally higher than in the west and the far-right has a stronger grip, are more worried that Germany will be overburdened than their western counterparts, the poll showed.
Heidelberg University professor Schmidt said easterners generally had little experience of immigration and were less tolerant of foreign cultures than westerners. Some see themselves as "the losers of reunification" without a fair share of Germany's wealth, he said.
He said while Germany was used to immigration, in the past migrants had tended to come from former German territories, the former Communist East, the Soviet Union or other countries in the former eastern bloc. Now many are coming from the Middle East or southeastern Europe.
Almost one in two Germans thought relations with foreigners living here could deteriorate if more migrants arrive and the same number feared political extremism would rise. In recent weeks there have been almost daily attacks on shelters, with many suspected to have been carried out by the far-right.
Nonetheless, the Germans' top concern is the euro zone debt crisis, with two-thirds worried that they will have to cough up for a disproportionate share of the costs.
The annual "angst" poll of 2,373 people was conducted between June 5 and July 17.


This Alex Jones interview with Zach, a member of the QAnon team, is essential listening. It gives us the latest Alliance intel about North Korea activity taking place THIS WEEKEND: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLmgREfkQDQ.
'Is a preemptive strike on North Korea the perfect flash-bang for bringing in the GCR?' Absolutely.
'Is taking out all power in North Korea the most humane method for bringing this CIA proxy country to its knees overnight?' Definitely.
'Should we light holders be feeling incredibly excited right now because victory is clearly taking place within days?' TOTALLY.
The tsunami of intel has reached such a crescendo that I am physically dizzy trying to keep up with it. Obviously intel people like Jordan Sather and Roy Potter are barely sleeping in their effort to keep us constantly informed. Thank you, guys. Jordan, the dark circles under your eyes have not gone unnoticed.
Thank God we hung in there. Jared Rand is right - so many currency holders cashed in their currency and did not make it to the finish line. Pat yourself on the back because you made it, even if your fingers are bleeding from clutching onto your sanity through some very dark times.

My husband just finished school, and has been waiting for the results of his big examination that he took in June (he's a Respiratory Therapist). The results were finally released to students last week, so he's passed and now has his official registration, which means he can work under his own license and being a fully operational RT!
Got a TON of writing done over this last week. I was hit with a major inspiration bug, and I've been loving every minute of it. I've far surpassed my writing goals for this week, and since that doesn't always happen, I'm definitely celebrating!
So that's what I've been celebrating. How about you?
Double congratulations to your husband! I hope you two are going to celebrate.
Great about the job offer and that you're writing!!!!
Loved Meg Rostoff's book, too.
Congrats to your husband, that's all fabulous news!
