Not everyone chooses to share their story
Doing so may happen in counselling or therapy or with a trusted friend or family member. The process is very individual and revisiting traumatic memories and graphic details of events can be very retraumatising. It is by no means a necessary part of the healing process. While it is generally important to acknowledge what happened and how it has affected you, this is different from drilling down into the details of your trauma.
Sharing your story publicly is a very personal choice, and definitely not for everyone. It takes great courage as well as good support and feeling and being safe enough to proceed. While more people are speaking of their experiences all the time, it is important that each survivor chooses what is right for them, at the time. No one should ever be coerced or feel compelled to speak out. That said doing so has been an important part of building community understanding and a sense of connection for survivors who have chosen to do so.
Revisiting traumatic experiences can throw people back so they feel as though the trauma is happening again in the present. Trauma, especially trauma from childhood has biological impacts on your brain and body.
"At times, there are big hurdles and sometimes you don't feel like dredging up any more crap. You get tired of the gut churning feelings, but the pain is just below the surface at all times anyway and facing it has really helped it to lose its powerful hold over me. Sometimes it is hard to talk about things. I just allow the emotions and pain to come up and I try to ride with it. Then when I feel comfortable enough I speak of why I am feeling the way I am…"
(study participant in van Loon & Kralik, 2005c)
Your trauma experiences are not your whole story, even though it can feel like they are at times. Talking can help to put those past experiences outside of you, and disconnect the issues they raise from who you are, so you are able to separate yourself from the experiences (van Loon & Kralik, 2005c). Some survivors believe that it is important to acknowledge their abuse and speak about its impacts, rather than the details of what happened (van Loon & Kralik, 2005b).
It is important only to share your story when and if you feel ready to do so, and only within a safe environment, with a person you can trust.
Speaking about your experiences and talking through how they affected you can help rob the trauma or abuse of its power. Other processes can support your body to heal too. It is often important to work with the body and the mind as trauma affects both as well as the way they work together.
"Wading through self-doubt, grief, disbelief, loss and confusion at this stage of my life has been devastating and overwhelming at times. Whilst I have access to really fantastic professional support, and wonderful supportive friendships there have been times when I've needed just a short conversation with someone who knows that what I'm working through is hard.
It is so powerful to be heard and to have my pain heard after standing in silence for so long. To be heard by someone with empathy, a specialist understanding of trauma who can show me that I am actually surviving, is like being carried safely for just a brief part of the day. It's enough to be able to help me gather my hope, uncover my resources and find the strength I forged in my childhood to keep going and to keep walking towards the freedom I've always wanted."

#Supercars: McLaughlin gives Mustang dominant win on debut #ADL500
04/03/2019 Editor	0 Comments
Ford's new Mustang Supercar claimed a commanding victory in its very first race, with defending champion Scott McLaughlin.
The Shell V-Power Racing driver gave the incoming model the best possible introduction, leading from start to finish in the opening leg of the Superloop Adelaide 500.
Click here for full race results
He crossed the line with a 12.9651-second advantage, as Red Bull Holden Racing Team pair Jamie Whincup and Shane van Gisbergen rounded out the podium.
McLaughlin's victory was the 26th of his career, first in Adelaide and the Mustang's first ATCC/Supercars championship race win since Allan Moffat's victory at Oran Park in 1972.
Mustangs filled four of the top six places, even with a penalty for polesitter Fabian Coulthard, in a race run in searing conditions without a Vodafone Safety Car.
After taking his first ARMOR ALL Pole in nearly two years, Coulthard moved out of his grid box before the start.
He lost the lead to team-mate McLaughlin off the line in any event and was handed a 10-second penalty, served at his first pitstop on lap 10.
That left McLaughlin to build an advantage of six seconds over Whincup by the time the latter pitted on lap 19.
His lead grew gradually during the second stint, sitting at nine seconds halfway through the 78-lap duration.
It was out to 12s with 30 laps remaining, when Whincup made his second and final stop.
McLaughlin went another three laps before doing the same and emerged 15s clear.
The gap at the top was trimmed slightly during the run home, but McLaughlin still crossed the line 13s clear.
"That one's for you Ford fans, first weekend for the Mustang," he said.
"We're here, we're here to party and we're going to have a good time.
"It was really tough, [but] cooling and all that stuff was really good for us and I just brought it home.
"I'm really happy with the car. It's a great start. We don't have number one on the car but we're number one today, it's a great start."
Whincup and van Gisbergen banked podiums to start their new seasons, even if they could not challenge McLaughlin, and were the only Holdens in the top six.
"We didn't get the best start. Fabs jumped and I went 'oh, are we going, or are we not?! I had the big panic and lit it up," Whincup, who started alongside Coulthard, said.
"The car was good and the team did a good job of keeping us cool in there as well, so I don't feel too bad at the moment."
Van Gisbergen added: "It was a tough one, we didn't quite have the pace, but congrats to Scotty and his team.
"To come out with a new car and dominate is pretty impressive. We've got to catch up now."
Van Gisbergen finished 15s behind his 2018 title rival and had to withstand pressure from Tickford Mustangs during the afternoon.
Chaz Mostert applied the most, running behind van Gisbergen during the second and third stints and eyeing up a move.
However Mostert overshot Turn 9 on lap 40 and then Turn 4 on lap 50, either side of pitstops and had to settle for fifth, albeit from 12th on the grid.
That left 23Red Racing's Will Davison as the best of the Tickford runners.
Davison closed on van Gisbergen in the final laps but could not snatch a podium on his return to the former factory Ford squad.
Coulthard made good inroads through his second stint after serving the penalty and crossed the line in sixth.
Holden drivers filled the next four places, led by Brad Jones Racing's Nick Percat.
David Reynolds took eighth, ahead of new IRWIN Racing driver Mark Winterbottom and James Courtney, and the best of the Kelly Racing Nissans, Rick Kelly.
Waters frustrated over heat rule
Cameron Waters ran fourth in his Monster Mustang in the early stages, as a coolsuit failure became apparent.
He was forced to pit and get out of the car on lap 19 as part of Supercars extreme-heat policy, as Tickford changed the coolbox system.
That cost Waters 14 laps, and he was ultimately classified 22nd.
Holdsworth, Pye strike trouble at Turn 7
Lee Holdsworth's Tickford debut included contact with the Turn 7 tyres on lap 27, while running at the foot of the top 10.
His stricken Mustang was collected by Scott Pye's Commodore, both cars able to get out and going again to prevent a Safety Car period.
Holdsworth got back out but six laps down, while Pye was the race's only retirement.

Mission to the Middle East Brings Positive Results for Brazilian Agribusiness
On September 22, the mission led by the Minister of Agriculture of Brazil, Tereza Cristina, to the Middle East ended. The entourage visited four countries: Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates.
Along the way, new commercial partnerships and market opening for the imports of agricultural products from Brazil were announced.
The final balance was positive, according to the assessment of the Brazilian Confederation of Agriculture and Livestock (CNA). For CNA's Head of International Relations, Lígia Dutra, the opening of the markets should stimulate the productivity of the Brazilian sector and increase the farmer's income.
"The mission was very positive and the minister has many deliverables. In Egypt, we were able to open the market for Brazilian dairy products. This means a lot for Brazilian farmers, because they are investing and producing more and they need new markets to sell their goods. We sought after new partnerships and destinations for our products. Our goal is to add value to our exports, increase productivity and producers' income," said Ligia.
Ligia also highlighted the opening of the Saudi market for honey, Kuwait's interest in high value-added products and future investment partnerships with the United Arab Emirates.
"We will continue to work to stimulate growth in our agriculture. But this growth must be based on international partnerships. That way we can further develop our sector as we find new markets abroad. Partnerships are fundamental to reach the foreign market, so we will increasingly invest in cooperation with countries like the United Arab Emirates."
Entourage visits BRF Foods factory in the United Arab Emirates.
Over the weekend, the group visited the BRF Foods factory and participated in a Business Seminar, a partnership with Dubai Export and the Arab Brazilian Chamber. On Sunday, they also visited a farm where fruits and vegetables are grown in greenhouses, with biological pest control and use of central pivot for irrigation.

"Few countries have such a diverse and relevant agricultural sector as Brazil. We have the capacity to continue expanding the food supply in a sustainable way," said Agriculture Minister Tereza Cristina.

In the wake of life-changing events—whether as global in reach as the terrorist attacks on September 11 or as personal as the death of a child—the first question that springs to mind is "Why?" Why do good people suffer pain and loss? Why does God allow these things to happen?
In this simple, straightforward book, Bruce Henderson tackles some of the most difficult questions that people of faith face in their lives. He describes a universe in which God allows us free will and choice, subtly guiding the course of our lives with an insight no mortal can comprehend. Pain and suffering ultimately lead to good, and as we walk the path, we draw ever closer to heaven.
Bruce Henderson is the author of Window to Eternity, which deals with death and the afterlife. A journalist for most of his career, he served as an editorial page editor and columnist for the Bucks County Courier Times. For the past ten years he has been the director of development and now director of communications for the Academy of the New Church and the General Church of the New Jerusalem in Bryn Athyn, Pennsylvania.
One of the main reasons atheists give to explain why they do not believe in God goes something like this: If there were a benevolent and all-powerful entity running the universe, there could not be so much pain and suffering as is obviously prevalent all over the world. Its benevolence would oppose such tragedies, and it would have all the power needed to prevent them. People who do believe in God can see their point, but they feel that the situation is not as simple as all that.
In 1983 a Jewish rabbi by the name of Harold Kushner wrote a book in which he gave his explanation of why a belief in God is possible, and even reasonable, despite the widespread woe that is so apparent. He called his book When Bad Things Happen to Good People. It found a receptive audience and soon made it onto the best-seller lists.
Now a new book devoted to this subject matter has appeared on the scene. It is Why Does God Let It Happen? by Bruce Henderson. This one is especially important because it makes use of New Church theology to provide a well-reasoned answer to the question posed by the book's title. Mr. Henderson's previous book, Window to Eternity, gave its readers the New Church view of life after the death of the physical body. His new Why? book does the same for the difficult problem of God's tolerance of so much human suffering.
In dealing with this problem he draws on many distinctive doctrines from the Writings. These include the laws of Divine Providence, the preeminence of eternal life over that of the body, and especially the absolute necessity of preserving human freedom. In the course of weaving these doctrines into a coherent and convincing explanation of why the Lord's permission of evil and its resulting pain and distress in no way diminishes His love and compassion for mankind, the author succeeds in composing an easy-to-read introduction to Swedenborgian theology.
This book is the latest in the series of Chrysalis books published by the Swedenborg Foundation. It is brief, well written and interesting. Apparently Rabbi Kushner himself read it with approval. On the front cover this quotation from the rabbit appears: "The best consideration of God's role in tragedy from a traditional perspective that I have ever read." Considering the source, that is quite a compliment; and I totally agree.


Fearne Cotton's cookbook is stuffed with recipes that are a delicious combination of hearty and healthy, perfect for jazzing up your midweek meals.
Fearne, who is mum to four-year-old Rex and one-year-old Honey Krissy, knows how important it is to be able to serve up tasty meals in a hurry. Her approach is a straightforward one, with a handful of ingredients, not too much prep time and a tasty finished product. Something we all need more of!
Sticking to healthy trends, Fearne plumps for more nutritious alternatives to everyday foods, like swapping white rice for brown or taking the refined sugar out of sweet treats. Keeping sweet things as healthy as possible means the kids can still get their treat fix without you having to feel guilty, and using nutritious ingredients enables a good few swaps when it comes to the usual freezer-food options too (we love her fish fingers!).
The mum of two is better known for her presenting roles than her cooking prowess, but had frequently expressed how much she loves cooking before releasing her first book, Cook Happy Cook Healthy, in 2016. With one in the bag there's a second Fearne Cotton cookbook on its way.
These fish fingers are a great alternative to the shop-bought ones (although, don't get us wrong – those are a tasty treat sometimes too). The kids will love the familiar crunchy coating and you'll be glad to know they're getting some good essential fatty acid in their diet as well.
With a mellow flavour from coconut and sweet, tender vegetables this is the perfect choice to introduce your little ones to spice in a gentle way. They'll love the creamy sauce and if you serve it all up with some tasty brown rice it'll fill those little bellies up all evening long (which should mean no requests for snacks right before bedtime).
If you're after a guilt-free sweet treat then these mini tarts are perfect. Made with a hint of chocolate flavouring they're actually a lot healthier than they might look – thanks to a few clever swaps from mum Fearne.
Will you be trying any of Fearne's recipes? Let us know in the comments below!


Shelley still has her fancy roller skate, her Maserati car (seen here in 2014). I don't know how easy it is to drive a sports car when you're six months pregnant. I'm guessing that it's probably a lot easier than normal. You may ask, what is a Brag? It's a northeastern horse spirit who lives to throw people into bushes and streams. A bit like a kelpie.

Q: How to validate 'instance' in a Django form constructor MyForm(instance=myInstance) I have the data stored in a format different from the display format.
I've already worked out the form-to-db conversion in the clean_weight() method of the form, this gives me access to properly format data before saving it.
Now I pretend to manipulate the instances weight before the form is displayed but I fail to see a good place to do this inside the form code.
I have 2 alternatives that I know:

*

*Create the constructor and take care of that conversion there. It doesn't look good to me, because once you define the constructor it is for all the possible constructor calls(not only for the instance= one) and being only for 1 or 2 fields of the form I'd prefer another solution.

*Not doing it in the form code, putting it in every view I use, doesn't look comfortable, cause again I need to do it in several places and I'd need to remove the clean_weight from the form to keep it consistent, so I'd need to put both manipulations in every view I use the form.

For the moment of those 2 the one that looks better is the constructor one, but stinks to me.
Any hint?

A: Custom form field is what you need - simple, clean, reusable on any form. Probably even custom model field, but that is up to you.

The chowkidar is, quite unfortunately, not the most loved or respected entity in Indian society. Examples of this are everywhere. Before the 1980s, the Railway Protection Force (RPF) worked like chowkidars and were regarded as the "watch and ward" staff with weak discipline and uncertain judicial grounding. If an IPS officer was appointed to the RPF, it was considered a demotion – the officer had to make it a point to tell his visitors that he was, indeed, a senior police officer. All this changed when the RPF was turned into an armed force of the Union and on par with the rest of the police forces. The watchman, less-than-desirable as a role, let alone a career, finally, acquired the status of a policeman.
In common understanding, the chowkidar conjures up the idea of a night watchman, the one who is supposed to stand guard through the still of the night – less as an armed sentry and more as a signal to the passing thief to go elsewhere because someone is watching this gate. The sound he creates is supposed to act like a pre-emptive strike. Traditionally, the only equipment he carries is a lathi with which to beat the ground, the emanating sound is also offered as proof that he is awake and on duty through the night. Most chowkidars though tend not to stay awake at night.
This is because the modern-day chowkidars working across housing societies and in many other establishments are actually a sorry lot. They do an assortment of duties – from checking the building's water supply to ferrying household goods to washing cars and watching the main gate – and routinely work 12-hour shifts without any break.
Given the BJP's well-oiled machinery, its better preparedness for the polls and a more organised management of its media presence, the chowkidar campaign may well go through. Yet, there are already some indications that the approach is producing some unexpected fallouts – from the laughable when every BJP minister appears to have added the salutary chowkidar as a prefix to their names, to the Congress which had to do nothing more than call out Nirav Modi and Vijay Mallya as fellow chowkidars of the Prime Minister.
All of which acquires a very different connotation when the role of the Prime Minister of the country is compared to that of the chowkidar. This is more so because should something go wrong, the question has to be and will be asked of the chowkidar, and he usually would not have the liberty to say that the responsibility lies with the previous chowkidar. But since one highlight of the current chowkidar is to point to the previous ones on duty, way back to the time the nation won independence from the British, one wonders how the election campaign of the incumbent will square up with how people treat chowkidars when a theft actually takes place.
In 2014, Narendra Modi related well to the ordinary chaiwallah, and was ably- supported by the Congress party's rather erudite and overrated Mani Shanker Aiyer, who did him the favour of mocking that humble role. Modi had only to say one simple line: chai hi to becche hai, desh to nahi beccha. (I sold tea, not the nation). He of course romped home. This time won't be as easy.
The campaign is well underway but is fraught. Given the BJP's well-oiled machinery, its better preparedness for the polls and a more organised management of its media presence, the chowkidar campaign may well go through. There surely will be the coming of the second and the third and further rounds of the campaign, which will build on the initial push. Yet, there are already some indications that the approach is producing some unexpected fallouts – from the laughable when every BJP minister appears to have added the salutary chowkidar as a prefix to their names, to the Congress which had to do nothing more than call out Nirav Modi and Vijay Mallya as fellow chowkidars of the Prime Minister.
The campaign has been chosen by the BJP at a time the allegations surrounding the Rafale deal are still in court, and can spring a nasty surprise. Further, the head of the group involved in the follow-on contracts in the case is Anil Ambani, who also is in the news for avoiding what looked like an imminent jail sentence in another case with Ericsson. More noise has come in from Nirav Modi, the scamster who did what no one else has done in the history of Indian banking by literally walking away with more than USD one billion. He has been caught on camera by an ordinary looking-journalist of The Telegraph newspaper of the UK while the government here is still struggling to respond to his escape from Indian soil. Vijay Mallya sits pretty meanwhile in rural England.

30 Years of LGBT Film in New York: NewFest 2018
From ilovegay.net -	September 7, 2018 10:02 AM
It's a well-known fact marginalized populations experience a dearth of representation in media, including works that portray these groups but do so in a misrepresented or negative light. While some films from the past released nationwide do depict marginalized groups, including LGBT people, it is also the 21st century and their portrayals may not hold up to modern scrutiny (i.e. 1980's Cruising or 1997's In & Out).
Matt Skallerud's insight:
Entering its 30th year, NewFest, New York's LGBT film festival, is a space for film buffs, LGBT travelers, locals with a love for the arts and everyone in between to view the latest and best of new works relating to the LGBT community.
Curtain Up: LGBT Theatre in New York
From ilovegay.net -	August 13, 2018 8:37 AM
The performing arts and the rights of LGBT persons merge in the City of New York, where the plight of one issue or group often ties into the plight of the other. Creativity is as much an expectation when discussing New York as the perpetual construction and reconstruction occurring daily in Manhattan. The city sustains itself on the arts, with an abundance of museums, theatres, galleries, film centers, etc., both the prime (i.e. Lincoln Center) and the innovative (i.e. Hamilton) alive and well, creating important works. Experiences in the arts exist for a wide range of the populace. New York has, for much of its history, been a haven for groups and peoples without an opportunity to be welcomed elsewhere… including the LGBT community.

This profile was written by Gallons of fun an active contributor to the site.
South America: Watersheds in western Columbia (Rio Atrata, Rio San Juan).
club-shaped - with maximum broadness between dorsal and pelvic fins. The body lacks the adipose fin common in most tetras. The female is smaller, and plumper in the body than the male.
Fins of both sexes have a yellow tint, and are edged in black, with red at the base of the fin. The almost iridescent body of the fish is a mixture of blue, grey and mauve. A broad, dark stripe runs horizontally from mouth to tail. The body is lighter in color beneath the stripe than above. The more colourful male is also larger than the female and its fins are elongated. Another interesting gender difference is that males' eyes are blue around the pupil while the females' are more green.
Emperors are a peaceful species, and prefer a tranquil habitat. Tankmates should also be peaceful, with similar water parameter preferences. Keep Emperors in schools of at least four to five. Emperors enjoy tanks that are heavily vegetated with subdued lighting. Although soft water (can be achieved by peat filtration) is often recommended, they are able to flourish in even moderately hard water. Regular water changes are recommended. This fish will move through all levels in the aquarium. A darker substrate will show off the Emperor's colors. A temperature of 73� to 79� degrees F (23� to 26� c.) should be maintained. Optimal water hardness is dH 5 - 19. Although emperors are peaceful, males can be quite territorial but it is unlikely that they will harm each other. Suitable in community tanks with other characins, dwarf cichlids, small catfish and loaches, gourami, rasbora and danios.
The Emperor Tetra is an omnivore, which means they eat both meat and vegetation. Any high quality flake or pelleted fish food is a good diet base. They will benefit from live food like Daphnia and mosquito larvae as well as frozen fish food.
You can get one or more breeding pairs from schools containing similar numbers of males and females. You should provide a separate tank for each breeding pair, due to the male's aggression. Condition the male and female separately with live foods, before placing together for spawning. Keep the lighting low in the breeding tanks. A sponge filter should be sufficient. A lot of floating plants, or a spawning mop should be placed in the tank but no substrate is needed. This will help in cleaning the tank while the fry grow. Spawning usually begins at dawn. The parents, who produce 50 - 100 eggs, will often eat them, so they should be removed promptly after spawning. The fry will hatch 24 - 48 hours later. Feed the fry will hatch infusoria or other small foods such as freshly hatched brine shrimp. Do not allow the pH level to become too acidic, or you will start to lose the fry. Perform water changes weekly.
Mainly inhabits sluggish tributaries and small rivers.


Sole 2 Soul also sells plenty of shoes to walkers, nurses and others whose podiatrists recommend a sneaker with extra cushioning, says general manager Amanda Hofer.
Most of these are $100-plus running shoes that come in all the bright colors that are popular these days, such as orange paired with yellow, and a purple and pink shoe. You also can find all sorts of athletic clothing here, including leggings and running pants and sweat-wicking tops.
Sales of sports bras are a big part of Sole 2 Soul's business, too. The store carries a wide selection of sports bras in all cup sizes, including a size 50 E.
You may have heard of Sole 2 Soul before. That's because the company, which opened its first store in Visalia, has steadily expanded, opening a store in Fig Garden Village in 2011, followed by one in Bakersfield.
The stores are doing "exceptionally well," Hofer says. They frequently host 5-kilometer races that start and end at the stores, as well as other events.
Thrift shop and animal rescue fundraiser 4 Sisters Thrift has moved to a permanent home in Old Town Clovis.
The store has signed a five-year lease at 756 Pollasky Ave., kitty-corner from the Bank of America.
Part of the store features vintage and collectibles and the other part is "straight up thrift store," says Kim Lashbrook, who is part of two sets of sisters who run the store.
It carries furniture, such as china hutches and buffets, collectible glassware and other home goods, lots of cast-iron skillets and clothing.
"I've got a toboggan right now and an old truck horn," Lashbrook says, along with "great vintage desks."
A portion of the store's profit goes to the Animal Rescue of Fresno, a no-kill shelter that Lashbrook describes as a "happy dog shelter" where the animals are walked and trained.

Bill spoke with investigative journalists Kim Barker and Andy Kroll about the role of dark money — and the wealthy donors behind it — in this year's midterm elections. Watch highlight clips from that episode.
If you don't feel like politicians have your back, you should watch this to find out why.
What happened to Target after it contributed to an organization advocating against gay marriage was "the shot heard around corporate America," Kroll tells Moyers.
Democrats' attitude is, "If you can't beat them at this, let's just join them," Barker says.

Q: Compass Angle/Rotation Angle For Tracking Direction to X,Y Position In Javascript Say you have two x,y coordinates: Starting point of: (100, 100) and ending point of (96, 105). So I need to go left and up. I want to have an arrow point the way to the destination, rotated by the css rotate property, so I need the degree heading (from 0 to 360). 0 would mean go straight up, 180 would mean go straight down, 90 would be go right, etc.
Most posts say to get the bearing in degrees by using: (Math.atan2(105 - 100, 96 - 100) * 180) / Math.PI;.  But I can't get that to work. With the above coordinates, I get 128.6598... which would be down and to the right. It also gives negative numbers which would throw it off as well. I've tried adding various degrees depending on if it's positive or negative, but haven't gotten anything to work.
Is there a way to get the correct heading (from 0 to 360) for the two points? Thanks!

A: I think this isn't the best way to do that, but this should work:

const getVectorAngle = ([x1, y1], [x2, y2]) => {
  const x = x2 - x1
  const y = y2 - y1
  return (((Math.acos(y / Math.sqrt(x * x + y * y)) * (Math.sign(x) || 1)) * 180 / Math.PI) + 360) % 360
}

console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [96, 105])) //321.3401

console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [100, 101])) //0
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [101, 101])) //45
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [101, 100])) //90
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [101,  99])) //135
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [100,  99])) //180
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [ 99,  99])) //225
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [ 99, 100])) //270
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [ 99, 101])) //315
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [100, 100])) //NaN, start and end values are the same

Here's how it works:

Visalisation made by Geogebra Geometry
r is the displacement vector, which is given, and we're looking for α (alpha), the angle of that vector.
const getVectorAngle = ([x1, y1], [x2, y2]) => {
  const x = x2 - x1
  const y = y2 - y1
  return (
      (
        ( //Getting angle by `y = cos(alpha) * r` -> `alpha = cos^-1(y / r)`
          Math.acos(
            y /
            Math.sqrt(x * x + y * y) //Pythagorean theorem to get the length of r, `r^2 = x^2 + y^2` -> `r = sqrt(x^2 + y^2)`
          ) //= angle in interval [0°; 180°] (in radians)
          * ( //Detect the direction of angle by changing its sign
            Math.sign(x) //Sign of x, +1 if positive, -1 if negative
            || 1         //Return +1 even if x is 0, to avoid cancelling out 180°
          )
        ) //= angle in interval ]-180°; 180°] (still in radians)
        * 180 / Math.PI //Convert angle from radians to degrees
      ) //= angle in degrees
      + 360 //Add 360° to avoid negative values
    ) //= angle in interval ]180°; 540°]
    % 360 //Modulo by 360° to simplify angles >=360°
  //= angle in degrees in interval [0°; 360°[
}

Edit
Somewhat later, I realized, that it can be made to work with Math.atan2 as well:

const getVectorAngle = ([x1, y1], [x2, y2]) => {
  const x = x2 - x1
  const y = y2 - y1
  return x || y
    ? ((Math.atan2(x, y) * 180 / Math.PI) + 360) % 360
    : NaN
}

console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [96, 105])) //321.3401

console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [100, 101])) //0
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [101, 101])) //45
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [101, 100])) //90
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [101,  99])) //135
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [100,  99])) //180
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [ 99,  99])) //225
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [ 99, 100])) //270
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [ 99, 101])) //315
console.log(getVectorAngle([100, 100], [100, 100])) //NaN, start and end values are the same

As you may notice, the outer shell of the calculation remained the same. That's because Math.atan2 already returns an angle in radians in the interval ]-180°;180°]; so it's functionally same as first my solution's inner part.
The only change is an additional check for a null vector: Math.atan2 doesn't return NaN in this case.

A: I think, it should be {end point} - {starting point}
(Math.atan2(96 - 100, 105 - 100) * 180) / Math.PI;
// giving -38.659808254090095 = Down to the right

COVID-19: Cases dip, but 16 districts still in red zone in Haryana
With 11.59 per cent, Gurugram has the highest positivity rate among all districts of the state, followed by Faridabad with 11.55 per cent
Sixteen of 22 districts of Haryana are still in the red zone with their cumulative positivity rate more than 6 per cent even as at 6,902, the weekly cases of Covid have dipped to an 11-week low.
At 491 deaths in the past seven days, the mortality rate is disproportionate to the new infections in the state. A positivity rate above 6 per cent is categorised as critical one while the desirable rate as per the ICMR norms is less than 2 per cent.
With 11.59 per cent, Gurugram has the highest positivity rate among all districts of the state, followed by Faridabad with 11.55 per cent, Panipat 10.11 per cent, Hisar 9.49 per cent, Panchkula 8.86 per cent, Fatehabad 8.51 per cent and Sonepat 8.50 per cent.
Karnal district has cumulative positivity rate of 8.36 per cent, Mahendragrah has 8.33 per cent, Jind 8.23 per cent, Sirsa 7.60 per cent, Bhiwani 7.38 per cent, Yamunanagar 7.37 per cent, Rewari 7.33 per cent, Ambala 7.20 per cent and Kurukshetra 6.03 per cent.
Nuh is the only district to have a desirable positivity rate of 1.82 per cent and is placed in the green zone while five other districts are in the orange zone with positivity rate higher than 2 per cent and lower than 6 per cent.
With 5.81 per cent, Rohtak has the highest positivity rate among districts in the orange zone followed by Palwal 4.55 per cent, Kaithal 4.28 per cent, Jhajjar 3.98 per cent and Charkhi Dadri 3.69 per cent.
Gurugram is the only district of the state to have tested more samples than its total population i.e. 1,02,723 samples per lakh population. The closest district with second highest tests per lakh population is Panchkula with 61,010 tests while with 18,962 tests per lakh population, Jind district is at the bottom. Explaining the higher number of tests than the district's population, Dr Virender Yadav, Civil Surgeon, Gurugram, said at first, the population of 2011 Census was being considered for all purposes and then there were a large number of persons living here for their jobs, who were actually registered as residents of other districts or states.
Meanwhile, explaining the reason behind mortalities being disproportionate to the new infections, Rajeev Arora, Additional Chief Secretary, Health and Family Welfare, said deaths generally start coming down two weeks after the peak of a wave.
He said this time, there were mortalities due to black fungus as well. "Daily deaths are gradually tapering off and there is a decline in the number of mortalities each passing day. We hope that the daily deaths will also come down further in the coming 2 or 3 days," Arora added.

Q: Getting the list of shares connected to a machine Consider that i have connected to multiple shares of a remote machine( \\machineA\share1, \\machineA\share2....) along with shares on other remote machines.
Now my question is how to find only those shares which are connected to a particular machine. For eg, only those shares which are connected to machineA.
I already came across WNetOpenEnum and WNetEnumResource. But these are highly inefficient that they will return all shares which are connected to my machine and then i will have to search through the results for the shares connected to machineA:(
I need to know if there is some other function, using which i can find the share.
I am working on VC++ 6.0.
edit: Hey guys having another trouble. Whenever i try to connect to a share on the machine i get the following error:
"The referenced account is currently locked out and may not be logged on to"
Has anyone encountered this problem and how was it solved

A: To resolve your lockout problem, log onto a the target server (Or, if it's on a domain, log onto any domain controller on that domain), go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Active Directory Users & Computers, navigate to the User you're logging in as, and unlock it.
If the system is not on a domain, simply log onto it and unlock the account via the "Local users & Groups" tool in compmgmt.msc.

A: Iterating through all shares and only picking the ones you want, to me, looks as efficient as it gets. Is there some circumstance why you can't do it? (except laziness ;))

A: foreach (string systemName in systemNames)
 System.IO.Directory.GetDirectories("\\"+systemName+"\");

Playlist: The Sound and the Fury
On Air: Saturdays Midnight - 6am
jrrbll@krock.com
JRRBLL was born & raised in Northern Vermont. After a somewhat troubled youth, he arrived in Ithaca, NY quite suddenly one Spring day many years ago.
In the Spring of 1985, while on an unrelated mission for a friend, an opportunity presented itself for on air DJ training at WVBR-FM Ithaca, the only non-profit commercial training station in the USA at the time. In September of 1985, a slot opened up between 2am – 6am Sunday mornings for a possible free form show, during which time "Rocking The Night Away" was started – four hours of free form progressive loud rock, as the term Heavy Metal was getting to be a little long in the tooth. Seven years later, with Rocking The Night Away now a five hour show, Mimi Griswold, PD at WQNY-Ithaca, hired him away from WVBR to start The Sound & The Fury on Friday overnights from Midnight until 6am. The extra time meant further expanding the ever growing library & playlists.
Shortly after JRRBLL started at WQNY, Mimi was hired away by Ed Levine to take over programming of his new solid rock station in Utica, NY. He soon followed her north to K-Rock where you hear the rest of the story every Saturday night at midnight... The Sound & the Fury celebrated it's 26th anniversary November of 2011.
Now As Always, JRRBLL is at odds with Radio & the way music is presented on it, with it's tight formats & rigid playlists. The Sound & The Fury specializes in premiering the latest releases by current & established artists & groups in the loud rock field. Heavy emphasis on current (within the last 6 months) music, with short trips down memory lane to spice things up a little. Long sets are a mainstay, with as few interruptions as possible throughout the night. Regular features like instant requests(FOR REAL!), Notes From The Pen, Manly Advice from Mr. Manly, Readings from Fascination Alleyway, Artist Interviews & Surprise Guest Appearances, JRRBLL's Corner, where all the new stuff from the weeks mailbag gets spotlighted into one set, as well as a cool down with For Strahlers Only at 5:30am

Putin pours fresh scorn on Turkey 2.0 out of 5 based on 6 votes.
He was giving his wide-ranging annual news conference.
Touching on next year's US presidential election, the Russian leader called Donald Trump a "very colourful, talented person" and the "absolute frontrunner in the presidential race".
Mr Putin is now into his third term as president since 2000, battling an economic crisis. Critics say civil liberties have been steadily eroded under his rule.
He remains one of the world's most recognisable politicians, and has topped the list of The World's Most Powerful People compiled by Forbes magazine for the third year running.
Denied Russian regular troops were deployed in rebel-held eastern Ukraine but said there could be "people there who were carrying out certain tasks including in the military sphere"
Brushed aside media reports about one of his daughters, saying both lived in Russia and were "not involved in politics or business"
Its intervention has been heavily criticised by Turkey, the US and Gulf Arab states.
Mr Putin said the downing of the Russian jet by Turkish warplanes on the Syria-Turkey border was a "hostile act" but Russia was "not the country" to run away.
He said he saw "no prospect" of ties improving with Turkey - which Russia has put under sanctions - under its current leaders.
There was, he said, a "creeping Islamisation of Turkey that would have Ataturk rolling in his grave".
Mr Putin said Turkish officials should have picked up the phone to talk to Russia about their concerns that air strikes in Syria were hitting Turkmen rebels.
Ever noticed that Russian President Vladimir Putin has an unusual walking style? He does not swing his right arm much at all when he walks - instead all the movement is on the left side of the body, giving him a very distinct lop-sided gait.
A team of European neurologists analysed countless YouTube videos of the president and other top Russian officials to find out why.
They discovered that they all had a similar gait, and it is probably linked to their KGB military training which requires them to keep their weapons close to their chest or in the right hand, giving them time to draw a gun on an unexpected enemy. As a result, only the left arm moves freely.
So President Putin officially has a "gunslinger's gait" - but doctors should be aware that a reduced right arm swing can also be an early sign of Parkinson's disease too, the British Medical Journal research says.
Mr Putin insisted his country's economy was recovering.
"Our economy depends on oil and gas prices, we expected Brent to be worth $100 per barrel, but then it was $50, but this was an optimistic prediction too, our forecasts have to be amended again," Mr Putin said.
"GDP is falling, inflation is 12.3%, incomes, investment are falling too but the peak of the economic crisis is over."
Mr Putin is known for his marathon performances at his news conferences, where he frequently uses hard-hitting, colourful language.
This year's event lasted three hours and seven minutes - three minutes shorter than last year's.
The record for a Putin news conference was set in 2008, at four hours 40 minutes.
"We never said there were no people there who were carrying out certain tasks, including in the military sphere," President Putin told the annual news conference.
It is an important admission. After months of denial, insisting that the only Russians fighting in eastern Ukraine were either "volunteers" or "army servicemen on holidays", Mr Putin now says Russian military personnel are on the ground and are involved in the fighting.
He still maintains "there are no Russian troops there" and insists there is a difference. However the distinction may be very blurred for Ukrainian soldiers facing the Russian-backed separatists and Russian military personnel, as has now been admitted.
Whether the Russian servicemen are attached to the separatist units, or are there as commanders, trainers or advisers and are not on the ground as regular units, is in many ways a technicality. What President Putin has admitted is that Russia is present in eastern Ukraine and is engaged in military activity.
It may be stating the obvious, but the way this admission has been made is not new.
For many months, President Putin denied Russian troops being involved in the takeover of the Crimea - he called the heavily armed soldiers seen there in modern uniforms without insignia, dubbed "green men", a local self-defence force.
But earlier this year, he told Russian TV that he had instructed his special forces (spetsnaz) to get directly involved in the annexation.

A judge will consider sharply different recommendations on the sentence a Muncie man should receive for robbing a bank and trying to kill an officer.
MUNCIE, Ind. – When he this week sentences a Muncie man convicted of robbing a Yorktown bank and trying to kill a police officer, a local judge will consider a pair of starkly different recommendations.
Delaware Circuit Court 4 Judge John Feick on Wednesday will sentence 25-year-old James T. Cole, convicted March 1 of attempted murder, armed robbery, conspiracy to commit armed robbery, attempted carjacking, three counts of criminal confinement and two counts of failure to appear.
Testimony during a four-day trial indicated Cole in November 2012 had repeatedly fired an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle at Yorktown officer Ryan Jaromin after the Muncie man and an accomplice robbed employees at First Merchants Bank, 1501 N. Nebo Road.
►Witness: Cole said robbery was 'for college"
In a sentencing memorandum filed Monday, prosecutors Eric Hoffman and Joe Orick indicated they would recommend Cole be sentenced to 92 years in prison.
The memo refers to a recommendation by a probation officer that Cole be sentenced to about 60 years less than the prosecutors' suggestion.
On the attempted murder charge, the prosecutors recommend a 45-year prison term, while the probation officer suggests a 17-year sentence – a minimum sentence of 20 years, with three years suspended.
Cole's failure-to appear convictions stem from his escape to Colombia while awaiting trial. He was captured in the South American country in February 2017.
The prosecutors also noted Cole reportedly told the probation officer he was "young, dumb and in search of a thrill" when he robbed the Yorktown bank.
"Anyone who arms themselves with loaded firearms and violently confronts other human beings 'in search of a thrill' lacks a moral compass and should face the full force and effect of the criminal law," they wrote.

The south Coastline was susceptible to Danish Viking invasions throughout the 8th and 9th generations. In 787, it absolutely was assaulted and conquered by Danish pirates,[10] and then in the reign of Æthelwulf, King of Wessex in 838, a Danish fleet landed amongst Portsmouth and Southampton along with the surrounding area was plundered.[eleven] In reaction, Æthelwulf sent Wulfherd plus the governor of Dorsetshire to confront the Danes at Portsmouth, exactly where most of their ships have been docked.

Materials range from ivory, to silver, copper, iron, bronze, shakudo and other metals, with legs, wings, heads, etc. being completely moveable. Examples can date as far back as the Edo period, but most are from the Meiji or Taisho periods.
I am actively seeking fine examples of jizai okimono, especially insects in iron or bronze.
Please drop me a PM if you have any such items for sale.
Wow, that is a pretty niche hobby.
Don't have any sources for you, but I'm sure we'd all be interested in seeing what you've got. Assuming you're willing to share pics.
Will try to post an image by the weekend.
Sorry it took so long, but I had to remind myself how to post an image - Hopefully it works. This is a late Edo/Meiji period grasshopper in bronze, signed by the artist Muneyoshi. Once samurai were outlawed, armorers started to make these lifelike, articulated creatures to show their craftsmanship.
