Assassination of Abraham Lincoln
April 14, 1865, Abraham Lincoln was watching "Our American Cousin" at Ford's Theatre in Washington DC. It was during the play when John Wilkes Booth, a stage actor shot Lincoln in the head. The sixteenth president of the United States of America shot in the head by a stage actor. The attack came within a week of the culmination of the American Civil War. Five days ago, General Robert Lee had surrendered along with his army.
Booth was sympathetic with the Confederates, though he never took up arms effectively; he remained loyal to the Confederates against the Union forces. As the Confederates came close to a defeat, Booth came up with a plan to assassinate then-president, Lincoln.
Immediately after the shooting Booth shouted, "Sic semper tyrannis!" expressing his dissatisfaction with the tyranny. As soon as the event took place, Booth was on the run followed by the biggest manhunt in American history. Around ten thousand personnel participated in the manhunt and soon the union forces had surrounded Booth and his coconspirators in Virginia. The arrest could not take place as Booth set himself on fire.

Lincoln lead the United States through the greatest civil war in American history, he not only survived a political crisis, in fact, a moral and constitutional one as well.
There have been repeated assassination attempt on US presidents including President Kennedy, Garfield, and McKinley. As of today, thirty assassination attempts have taken place on former or incumbent presidents.

For most amateur golfers, the place on the golf course that's easiest to improve their average is not the tee, but rather much closer to the hole. The most important part of the course where amateurs should practice their game is actually the scoring zone. According to some PGA Professionals, hitting the ball farther off the tee isn't nearly as valuable for taking strokes off your score as improving your proficiency for shots within 100 yards of the hole.
If you watch the pros, you'll see what they mean. The world's best are deadly accurate when it comes to shots with a wedge in their hands. A good short game is vital on tour, and it's just as vital if you want to reduce unnecessary strokes and make the leap from capable player to scratch golfer. Good short game comes through repetition and conscious decisions for every single shot. So in this lesson, we teach you the golf short game tips you need to improve your pitching and chipping skills and shed those unwanted extra strokes around the green.
In order to improve your short game, you should begin by working on two essential concepts: distance control and feel. The first can be achieved through an adjustment in technique. To help you better control your distance with the wedge, PGA Professional Christopher Smith teaches you simple golf short game tips that focus on making clean contact with the ball. Clean contact means hitting the ball before you hit the ground and hitting it on the downslope. Christopher shows you how to do this with basic golf short game tips that ensure you don't over-accelerate and throw your swing out of alignment.
The second component of a good short game that all amateur golfers can improve is their feel for a shot. Feel comes through repetition, which means you have to practice. PGA Professional Rodney Green recommends hitting a variety of pitches and chips over and over until your eyes are in sync with the rest of your body and your swing becomes instinctual. Practicing shots in the scoring zone is the only way to become truly comfortable with a wedge in your hands.
To help you get a better feel for close-range shots, Rodney demonstrates golf short game tips that hone your wedge game and help you select the right club for every shot. With Rodney's golf short game tips, you'll learn the importance of staying loose, avoiding making swing changes after bad shots, maintaining a fluid backswing and follow-through, and accelerating rather than decelerating. Take advantage of each of these golf short game tips, and we guarantee you'll start shedding strokes off your average!

Q: Javascript - avoiding module circular dependency (organization issue?) I'm completely stumped on how to avoid this circular dependency.  I have a TS module that sends emails, and one that handles errors.  The error handler writes to a DB and sends emails.  And the emailer needs to be able to handle errors.  Then most apps use both of them.
For example, something like:
emailer.js
import err from "error-handler.js"

function sendEmail() {
  try { trySendEmail() }
  catch(e) { err(e) }
}

error-handler.js
import sendEmail from "emailer.js"

function err(e) {
  sendEmail("Error Occurred", e)
}

Is there a right way to handle this situation? Thanks for your help!

A: a) there's absolutely no reason not to use a circular dependency here - the two modules do depend on each other, and the code you've written works as-is with ES6 modules, no problems at all. It's no different from putting both function declarations in the same file.
b) break the dependency chain and use dependency injection instead. Either have
// emailer.js
function sendEmail(text, handleError) {
  try { trySendEmail(text) }
  catch(e) { handleError(e) }
}

// error-handler.js
import sendEmail from "emailer.js"

function err(e) {
  sendEmail("Error Occurred: "+e.message, err)
}

or
// emailer.js
import err from "error-handler.js"

function sendEmail(text) {
  try { trySendEmail(text) }
  catch(e) { err(e, sendEmail) }
}

// error-handler.js
function err(e, sendEmail) {
  sendEmail("Error Occurred: "+e.message)
}

If you still need to use both in your project, without injecting a dependency in either, you'll need a third module that depends on both and does export a function with the dependency injected.

The International Cricket Council's lack of action on concussion is in the spotlight again after it emerged an unfit Sri Lanka batsman was allowed to defy doctor's orders and face the blazing Australian attack in Canberra last week.
It is understood Sri Lankan batsman Kusal Perera was theoretically ruled out of the second Test with concussion when, in the absence of a Sri Lankan team doctor, he was assessed by Australian doctor Richard Saw. The assessment came after Perera was forced to retire hurt in the first innings after he was struck by a bouncer from Jhye Richardson.
Only two months ago, three Australia cricketers were slapped with long suspensions for their role in the ball tampering scandal in Cape Town. Dinesh Chandimal, however, is unlikely to face punishments beyond the one-Test suspension the ICC has dealt out for the tampering itself (the "spirit of cricket" charge is a separate one). Here is why the two incidents will be treated differently.
Australian sportspeople are generally put on a high pedestal, and allegations of cheating – even for what was a Level 2 ICC offence – are taken seriously. Sri Lanka's cricketers are widely admired, but do not face anywhere near the level of public scrutiny that many others from around the world contend with. Several former players, including the super-popular Kumar Sangakkara, have spoken of the relatively laidback nature of Sri Lankan fame. As such, there is not so high an expectation of morality, even from a Sri Lanka captain.
Sri Lanka captain Dinesh Chandimal has been officially charged with ball tampering in the ongoing Test against West Indies – a charge he and the Sri Lanka team appear likely to contest when a hearing is held at the end of the Test. Here is the sequence that led to the state of events.
Following play on the second evening on Friday, in which Sri Lanka were straining for wickets, on-field umpires Aleem Dar and Ian Gould, and television umpire Richard Kettleborough had concerns over the methods Sri Lanka had used to maintain the ball. As a result, they approached the broadcasters for footage which could support or confirm their suspicion.

It must be a generational thing, but I'm having increasing trouble interpreting current human status phraseology.
I think it started with some self absorbed starlet or other in the States talking about "Conscious decoupling," which apparently is a rather obtuse way of saying "We are separating, or getting divorced."
This then moved onto the more widely used phrase, "My partner." This for me can be a real guessing game as it can include: wives, husbands, or lovers. An extra dimension is added if the there is a contained nuance that refers to a relationship that involves being; gay, lesbian, transgender, alien or swinging both ways.
The latest that I have stumbled across in my efforts to keep abreast of international news, is from the actress Emma Thompson talking about "Self partnering." Although I must forego any observation as to this being a contradiction of a terminology nature, I can in fact sympathise with the intentions underlying its usage. This I discern to be that wheras single men of a certain age are told to "Go out and play, the field;" that in a likewise female case, the attitude is one of "Dont worry, the right one will come along soon."
Perhaps I'm stretching the boundaries a bit also, in posing the questions; Is there an age limit? Can one propose to ones self?
It's all getting a bit confusing, and not much of enlightenment can be gleaned from The Book of Genesis.
But anyway, there you have it. At the next family dinner party, where perhaps three generations are gathered around the table, drop a bombshell by announcing that you are "Consciously decoupling your partner and becoming a self partner." Watch Grandma's reaction!!!
One new thing, that seems to be "in" is people (mostly or exclusively women) getting married to themselves, dressed as a bride and all.

Unbelievable. But at the same time loved the story of the woman who married a dolphin.
Thanks for your usual assiduous research.

Q: How to test if a div is not displayed? I have a div with a unique id='myDiv'. In a CasperJS test, I need to verify that this div is not displayed (i.e., display=none).
How can I achieve this?

A: CasperJS provides the visible function in the casper module and assertVisible in the tester module.
It checks

*

*whether getComputedStyle produces an exception,

*style.visibility === 'hidden' || style.display === 'none',

*style.display === "inline" || style.display === "inline-block" and

*elem.clientHeight > 0 && elem.clientWidth > 0 in that order.

This also works if an ancestor element is hidden, but not the tested element.

A: You can try computed styles in vanilla-js:
getComputedStyle(document.getElementById('myDiv')).display == 'none';

Dems Want Hearing On Federal Judge's Racist Obama Email
(TPM) - Two Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee want a hearing examining the conduct of the federal judge in Montana who emailed a racist joke implying that President Barack Obama's mother had sex with a canine.
Reps. John Conyers and Steve Cohen wrote to Rep. Lamar Smith (R), chair of the House Judiciary Committee, urging an examination of the "full ramifications of Judge Cebull's conduct on the integrity of the federal judiciary and to consider whether further action by the Committee is warranted." Legislative action should be on the table, they wrote.
"At a minimum, forwarding this email illustrates poor judgment and of conduct that was unbecoming of a federal judge," they wrote in the letter, which was first reported by the Associated Press and obtained by TPM. "More troubling, however, is the possibility that public disclosure of the judge's conduct may not only undermine the public's view of his personal credibility and impartiality as a judge, but also the integrity of the United States District Court for the District of Montana and of the federal judiciary."
Cebull has apologized for forwarding the email and reported himself to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals for an ethics probe.

Nafukovací kite pro sezonu 2019 Passion MK X od značky RRD.
In correspondence of each strut and its connection point onto the leading edge, we have created a specific 45° crossed fibers double ripstop reinforcement that spreads the load of the strut onto the body of the kite during hard crashes, drastically reducing the potential canopy breakage of the kite.
Techno Force™ is a high density fabric with a tear stopping structure that is constructed with a high tensioning double polyester yarn. This material does not only add to the strength and longevity of our kites, but it also improves the stability and the flying characteristics without adding weight.
We use UV resistant PU strut hoses and fittings on the entire range of kites. This material has been tested against four years of sun and salt to ensure that it is durable and will increase the longevity of our equipment.
Multiple points of connection provide a multitude of adjustments to the flying characteristics of the kite such as depower, bar pressure, turning speed, and turning radius. These changes affect jumping, kite loops, slack, drift, and water relaunch.
A small batten that connects from the trailing edge to the leading edge that prevents the bridles from wrapping around the wingtip during launching or water relaunching. It also allows for storage of the bridles when packing the equipment after a session.
Radial Canopy reinforcements around the trailing edge of the kite, are positioned in a way that intersects the Techno Force Double Ripstop. This not only increases strength and durability on sensitive areas but also compliments the torsion placed on the kite, thus improving the overall flying characteristics.
We have an elastic rope connected to the pigtails of the backlines that stretches up to around 20cm, this makes sure that your backlines are always slightly under tension when you depower the kite due to the slight delay it creates. This feature makes you able to always feel where the kite is and prevents the kite from frontstalling when you suddenly let go of the bar.
All struts are reinforced with Kevlar stitched to the ends which reduce abrasion and the new design also prevents sand from getting into the kite. The middle strut includes Kevlar and an additional layer of Dacron because it suffers the most on impacts.
One pump hose clamps that prevent unwanted airflow between struts and leading edge. Each clamp is covered with neoprene to prevent wear and damage to the kite.
Our bold graphics are designed with CNC laser cut panels made with canopy fabric firstly glued and then triplestitched together. This way we can avoid massive screen printining on the kite, reducing its deteriorating effect and making each graphic panel effectively a reinforcement on the kite body itself. An RRD exclusive design feature now copied by some other kite brands.
Additional reinforcements on all scuff points strengthened with branded, EVA reinforcements to extend the life and durability of the kite. This EVA is then encased in Insignia secured by a double stitch that adds to the durability of high stress points.
Every panel of any inflatable structure, from the struts to the leading edge, is built with a special heavy duty stitching system. The stitching areas are internally reinforced with a strip of adhesive dacron (Insignia), creating a solid base for durability. Kevlar is then wrapped around every exposed LE Seam to provide further protection.
Bridle attachment points are reinforced with a soft PU external protection an and internal double adhesive dacron patch, to increase durability.
Kevlar reinforcement scuff pads located on the wear points of the leading edge protecting the Dacron from constant abrasion where the bridles make contact with the leading edge.
Díky velké historii tohoto baru se firma RRD rozhodla Global Bar V8 nechat jednoduchý a spolehlivý jako u predchozích verzí. Samozrejme i u V8 nejaké nové funkce pribyli. Odstranili se zbytecné položky.

Watch the Gears of War 4 Launch Trailer Three Weeks Before Launch
By Ron Whitaker Legacy Author September 19, 2016
Alongside the trailer comes the news that the campaign will have split-screen co-op on both PC and Xbox One.
The launch of Gears of War 4 is still three weeks away (October 11), but Microsoft and The Coalition are already rolling out the launch trailer. It's called the "Gameplay Launch Trailer," so we might see a more cinematic trailer closer to the actual launch.
It features looks at the new cast, new enemies, and even offers up glimpses of Cole and of course, Marcus Fenix.
The trailer isn't the only news about Gear of War 4. PC Gamer reports that the game will have split-screen co-op on PC when it launches next month.
It will also support cross-play between the Windows 10 and Xbox One versions for campaign co-op, Horde mode, multiplayer play against AI, and multiplayer versus in both private and LAN games.
Additionally, Gears of War 4 supports Xbox Play Anywhere. That means that buying the digital version on PC gives you a digital version Xbox One as well, and vice versa. If you pick up the $100 Ultimate Edition, you'll get access to the game four days early, as well as the rest of the goodies that come along with it.
Gears of War 4 launches on October 11 for PC and Xbox One.

Q: Python FLASHTEXT returns only last Key in case of duplicate - I need to find all matching cases I'm running the below code but want to get all possible clean-words where there is match present.
For example if I pass the value of PM which has 2 clean-words (Project & Product Management), i should get both as output and not just the last one.
from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor(case_sensitive = False)
keyword_dict = {
     "java": ["java_2e", "java programing"],
     "project management": ["PM", "project manager"],
     "product management": ["PM", "product manager"]
 }

# {'clean_name': ['list of unclean names']}
keyword_processor.add_keywords_from_dict(keyword_dict)
# Or add keywords from a list:
#keyword_processor.add_keywords_from_list(["java", "python"])
print(keyword_processor.extract_keywords('I am a PM for a java_2e platform', span_info=True))
# output ['product management', 'java']

The above implementation only returns the last match (in this case if PM is searched then only PRODUCT MANAGEMENT comes and not PROJECT MANAGEMENT).
IS there a way to get both as part of the result ?

A: Here you go
from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor(case_sensitive = False)
keyword_dict = {
     "java": ["java_2e", "java programing"],
     "project management": ["project manager"],
     "product management": ["product manager"]
 }

keyword_processor.add_keywords_from_dict(keyword_dict)
keyword_processor.add_keyword('PM', ["project management", 'product management'])
print(keyword_processor.extract_keywords('I am a PM for a java_2e platform', span_info=True))
# output [(['project management', 'product management'], 7, 9), ('java', 16, 23)]

Q: What's the best practice for handling routes in expressJS I was used to write routes like this with ExpressJS:
var app = express();
app.get('/something', function(req, res){});

But I have seen with the all new v4 of ExpressJS that we can now use express.router() like a middleware like this:
var app = express();
var router = app.Router();
app.use(router);

router.get('/something', function(req, res){});

So my question is, what's the real difference between the two and what's the best practice ?
Thank you in advance!

A: I think this is really just a matter of preference.  Personally I prefer the original way you noted above, since I can keep the routes with the code that should be run (I generally pull this logic into separate files):
app.js  (similar to this: https://gist.github.com/dylants/6705338)
// ...

// pull in all the controllers (these contain routes)
fs.readdirSync("controllers").forEach(function(controllerName) {
    require("./controllers/" + controllerName)(app);
});

// ...

controllers/my-controller.js
module.exports = function(app) {
    app.get("/api/my-uri", function(req, res) {
        // ...
    });
};

Again, doing this allows me to control the URIs within the separate files themselves, so folks are able to work isolated.  That said, others prefer to have all the routes within the same file, so they can be viewed all at once (similar to the way Rails has a route command).  Probably best to consult with the members of your team and see which they prefer.

A: Difference in code organization.
Using router.route() is a recommended approach to avoiding duplicate route naming and thus typo errors.
Mount in, testing so easy with this syntax:
router
  .route('/')
   .all(function(req,res,next){ next(); })
   .get(...)
   .post(...)
   .put(...)
   .delete(...)

 router.param('id',function(req,res,next,id){ ... })
 router.use('/feedback', anotherSubRouter); // will /my-mount-point/feedback

 ... somewhere in app

 app.use('/my-mount-point', router);
 app.use('/api', apiRouter);

 ...etc

In an exclusive interview with Brand Equity, HUL's head – media services, Gauravjeet Singh talks about how the FMCG behemoth has become more social and sociable over the last half decade.
How did you negotiate the move from a campaign based approach to the always on world of social media and digital?
There are three key levers for our always on digital strategy. The first is a clearly articulated engagement platform for a brand, this makes it easy for us to be consistent with our brand messages on digital. The second was embedding the brand purpose and the business objective in our digital campaigns. Instead of a medium for small activations, we look to digital as a medium to get brand messages to consumers at scale. And the third is our drive to create compelling digital brand assets. For example, BeBeautiful our beauty portal, is one of the largest beauty destinations in the country.
How do you ramp up your social presence during campaigns?
A strong content strategy for our brands is an important pillar for our social campaigns. Content Day has been a big intervention. On Content Day we got the biggest content creators in the country to engage with our brands. As a result, we have seen outcomes like the Brooke Bond Red Label 6 Pack Band which brought alive Brooke Bond Red Label's social mission of making the world a more welcoming place.
The filters of 'Authentic, Relevant and Talkable' that we use while creating content gives our campaigns a head start on engagement from consumers.
All these saw huge engagement from consumers and went on to become some of the most viewed digital campaigns in India.
What role does social listening play in the marketing process at HUL?
We have very strong social listening capabilities within our ecosystem. A lot happens around optimising campaigns based on audience response and tweaking the campaign basis consumer response. We track both the volume and the sentiment of conversations. The Lakme Fashion Week Command Centre is one such example. During the fashion week we wanted to drive "The Sculpted Look" and sharply targeted consumers who were engaged with the brand message with remarketing campaigns and aimed to build conversations with both influencers and consumers.
Considering the number of platforms keep increasing, how do you evaluate which ones are most relevant?
Our approach is quite straightforward we make sure we get reach which is critical for our brands. Therefore big reach platforms become important. Having said that for some of our brands Instagram or Snapchat are relevant for the target audience that the brand is trying to engage. The other nuance is that each platform fulfils a very specific purpose in the mix. It could be visual storytelling for Instagram, moment marketing on Twitter and news feed friendly content for Facebook. These nuances make it more complex but lead to better effectiveness when we plan these details out well.
Other than the ones that I called out earlier some others that stand out are the 'Vim Epic Moment' and Dove's 'Choose Beautiful' campaign. In Vim's case we intervened when a customer received a Vim Bar instead of a cell phone he had ordered from an ecommerce site. We were able to convert this into a great moment delighting the consumer.
On Dove's Choose Beautiful, social listening and messaging came together. There was a huge upside in terms of consumer engagement. The campaign has Dove's social mission at its heart and greatly appealed to consumers.

Q: Как проигнорировать нажатие ссылки, чтобы сработало только событие OnClick? Подскажите, пожалуйста, как проигнорировать нажатие ссылки, чтобы сработало только событие OnClick?
В Опере и Хроме с этим отлично справляется ссылка такого типа:
ссылка

Точнее будет сказать, что это "return false;" а под "func();" я подразумеваю свою любую функцию. Только такая конструкция у меня не работает в двух браузерах

*

*Мазила;

*IE (Как не странно) - не обязательно но тоже хотелось бы.

Все остальные, нужные мне браузеры кушают нормально.
A: Используйте в начале вашей функции func();
event.preventDefault();

Вы тем самым отмените дэфолтное поведение события - в данном случае переход по ссылке.
A: перенести return false в саму функцию, в конец

Little Evidence Of Armed Civilians Stopping Shooters
In the wake of the Orlando massacre, some are claiming people carrying firearms in nightclubs could make patrons safer. (Getty Images)
A question being asked in the heart-wrenching aftermath of the Orlando, Fla., mass murder is: Could a civilian with a gun inside the nightclub have stopped the tragedy before dozens were killed?
It's a question worth discussing, especially because Connecticut has experienced a number of nightclub shootings and it helps illuminate a gray area in the national debate over guns: In whom should we put our trust? In police? Security guards? Or the public?
Florida's gun laws — described by the Wall Street Journal as "some of the friendliest laws for gun owners in the nation" — allow concealed-carry permits but restrict the places where people may carry guns. Those include nightclubs, or any establishment that serves alcohol, as well as schools and courts.
Orlando has had a number of nightclub shootings in recent months, according to the Orlando Sentinel. In February, two people were killed and 10 injured in a nightclub shooting sparked by a gang feud.
On Monday morning, the "Connecticut Carry" advocacy group distributed a statement arguing that laws that restrict people from carrying guns in certain public places essentially turn those places into soft targets for people bent on destruction. "Disarming people only enables this kind of bloodshed," its statement reads.
It's a point worth considering.
But how often do armed civilians stop shootings from happening or halt those in progress?
Law Professor Eugene Volokh, writing in the Washington Post last fall, cited a lack of a centralized national database cataloging such incidents but still comes up with 10 since 1997 in which a civilian with a gun seems to have made a difference. Recent examples include an Uber driver in Chicago who shot a man who had "opened fire on a crowd of people" and a man in a Philadelphia barber shop with a concealed carry permit who shot a man who had "opened fire on customers and barbers."
Of the 160 "active shooter" incidents identified by the FBI from 2000 to 2013, "at least 107 (66.9%) ended before police arrived and could engage the shooter, either because a citizen intervened, the shooter fled, or the shooter committed suicide or was killed by someone at the scene."
In only five of those incidents, however, did the shooting end "after armed individuals who were not law enforcement personnel exchanged gunfire with the shooters." In 21 incidents, unarmed citizens "safely and successfully restrained the shooter."
Perspective on the week's biggest stories from the Courant's Opinion page
So there are situations where armed civilians have kept bad situations from getting worse, but very few, especially considering the many shootings every year in a nation awash with guns. The New York Times estimates that there is one shooting a day in the U.S. that leaves four or more people wounded or dead.
There are also many incidents where the presence of good guys with guns did not stop the carnage, detailed in part in a 2015 Politico story.
Connecticut has seen a number of nightclub shootings since 2013 that wounded at least 11 people and killed at least three. There have been no reports of armed Good Samaritans stopping the assailants. In a Stamford shooting in which five people were injured, the shooter had a gun permit.
Even so, Connecticut Carry believes the presence of armed civilians in nightclubs is an asset. In its statement Monday, the group noted its resistance to a new law passed this year that lowers the legal blood-alcohol limit for carrying a loaded firearm from 0.1 percent to 0.08 percent.
"That is a rather significant encroachment for anyone that wants to go out and have a good time, enjoying alcohol, but also wants to be able to defend themselves," according to the group's statement.
Mixing alcohol and guns is obviously a dangerous proposition in any scenario. But in nightclubs, it seems a recipe for spilling blood rather than saving lives.
The evidence seems to show that armed civilians — especially those who have been drinking — are not always reliable defenders of the peace.

Basketball /
Time-Out Granted Bob, George
Jump Ball No. 107. By Arlington James
George Andrew, left, and Bob Alexander
There is a popular saying, "April showers bring May flowers". In 2022 Dominica received quite a few showers in April, and by the end of May the once popular Giraudel-Eggleston Flower Show made a spectacular come-back in the form of a pre-show which was presented under the theme, "The Enchanted Garden".
Sadly though, in April and May 2022 the basketball fraternity in Dominica lost two long-retired players, one of whom played in the 1970s and the other in the 1970s and '80s.
The current crop of players in at least the most recent national league (2017), or even some who played from the late 1980s may never have heard about any of those players. So, let's peek back at Robert Alexander and George Andrew while they performed on the basketball court. Their surnames both begin with the letter A, they both played on senior division teams and may have even played against each other. However, they have now taken permanent substitutions.
Robert "Bob" Alexander
"Bob", as Robert was affectionately known in basketball and other circles, undertook a rather short basketball journey here on Earth. He only played with Flames senior team, on which he was a founding member together with some of the team's big-name players as Alvin Bernard, Lennox Bernard, Seibert Didier, Tony Dixon, Augustus Harris and Peter Skerrit.
From the single available score for Bob that was published in The Star Dominica newspaper in May 1976, Bob assisted his team in blowing-out Pros by a score of 60-30. Bob was one of the high scorers in that match, netting 20% of Flames final score with a decent 12 points. 1976 was also a championship year for Flames, and so Bob would have contributed to his team's success that year.
Bob was 67 when he passed away on 15th April 2022, but before his passing he had lost his eyesight. During his better days, he was also known for the tasty pastries and tarts that he made and sold in Roseau.
George Andrew
Back in his day, George was known for his strong inside play under the backboards on the basketball court. He was also close friends with two basketball colleagues on his street – Claude Bellot and Charles James, both of whom played in the national league.
George played with three senior (Division I) teams in the national league, in addition to representing Dominica.
His first team was Zodiacs, with whom he played possibly only for the 1975 season.
Next, he moved to Harks and played with that team in at least 1976 and 1978. His teammates on Harks included Augustus Harris, Blaize Jones, Edgar Robinson, Henry Shillingford and Lennox Xavier/Jervier among several others.
His last team was Owls, on which he was a founding member and played only in 1985. His teammates then included Dr. George Bruney, Adolphus David, Wilmoth LeBlanc, Phil McDougal and Lennox Rocque among others.
George was consistently a high-scorer - and occasionally a top-scorer - for his team in individual games. And that goes way back to his days on Zodiacs.
Some of his high scores during his career were 38 pts (for Harks, vs Pros, 1978); 24 (for Owls, vs SMAGs, 1985); 23 (for Owls, vs Flames, 1985); 23 (for Owls, vs Harks, 1985); and 22 (for Harks, vs Flames in a replayed match, 1978). And, while with Zodiacs, he had netted 10 Pts against Cardinals in the 1975 league. His 38 Pts in 1978 was the 8th highest individual player score in that year's league.
Apart from making very valuable contributions to his teams' efforts as a scorer, George would also have grabbed many a defensive and offensive rebound for his teams.
George also got selected to the Dominica National Basketball Team for the 2nd Windward Islands Basketball Tournament which was played at Windsor Park in 1976, and was won by the home team. His teammates on that victorious national side were Oliver Burton, Alphonso Etienne, Augustus Harris, Clem Jno. Baptiste, Trevor Knight, Wilmoth LeBlanc, Emanuel Loblack, Charles Roberts, Henry Shillingford, Peter Skerrit, and Augustus St. Hilaire.
George was 70 years old when he left this Earth on 19th May 2022.
Jump Ball expresses sincere condolences to the families, friends, and basketball associates of Bob Alexander and George Andrew. Continue to Rest In Eternal Peace. Statistical information was sourced from archived newspapers.

Joachim Ickrath (* 15. Juni 1940 in Berlin) ist ein saarländischer Bildender Künstler.

Leben und Wirken
Seine Kindheit und Schulzeit verbrachte er in Saarbrücken, bevor er von 1959 bis 1962 seine Ausbildung an der Kunstgewerbeschule in Basel fortsetzte.
1962 siedelte er nach Berlin über, wo er für zwei Semester Stipendiat in der Bildhauerklasse von Hans Uhlmann an der damaligen Hochschule der Künste in Berlin war.

1966 war er Mitherausgeber der Kunstzeitschrift "ZAAZ", die nach seinem Weggang von Berlin keinen Fortbestand hatte. In der Zeit von 1970 bis 1981 unternahm Ickrath mehrere längere Reisen in Europa, Asien und Amerika. Insbesondere die Indische Kultur fand seine Faszination, er hielt sich zwei Jahre dort auf. In Indien belegte er ein Studium indischer Religionen und Philosophien. Heute lebt und arbeitet Ickrath in Völklingen.

Das Werk Ickraths zeichnet sich durch klare Strukturen und Farben aus. Oft sind es geometrische Figuren, die wiederholt und dabei mutiert werden. Ickrath konnte von den Schweizer Konstruktivisten Camille Graeser (1892–1980) und Richard Paul Lohse (1902–1988) in seiner Studienzeit viele der Techniken als die für ihn wirkungsvollsten übernehmen. Seine Bilder wirken dadurch aber überhaupt nicht langweilig, sondern erzeugen eine Spannung, die neugierig macht und den Betrachter auf Entdeckungsreise schickt. "Die künstlerische Tätigkeit ist das Ganz-Andere. Letztlich geht es in der Kunst um die Suche nach dem Unbekannten, um die Erweiterung des Bewußtseins und des Wissens auf verschiedenen Ebenen." (Ickrath im Interview, Saarbrücker Zeitung, September 1997)

Q: Is all the query in Entity framework 6 is already compiled? I want to optimized my queries in Entity Framework 6.1.3, so I need to know that whether queries are already CompiledQueries or I need to write them manually as CompiledQuery?
Thanks in advance.

A: No, they are not. You'll need to specify that you want to use a CompiledQuery.
That said, using a compiled query will only provide a 7% performance improvement. If tuning performance of EF really is a major issue for you, I recommend reading the following:

My Watermark is Buck Lake, Ontario.
In the summer of 2015, my 3 best friends and I went up to the sand bar and tied out three boats together. The sand bar is a meter deep and very fun to swim in. We jump off rocks, swim, ski, kneeboard, tube, fish, and explore nature. I love camping on islands with my friends and roasting marshmallows. I have made many great memories on Buck lake in my 12 years.

Dylan Scott's 'You Got Me' Video Is a Sweet Date-Night Story New Parents Will Relate To
Jacklyn Krol Published: February 6, 2019
Dylan Scott is following up his single "Nothing to Do Town" with a new song, "You Got Me," and romantic music video. Only, he's not the leading man in this sweet story.
The music video shows Scott performing the song in a dimly-lit club, but the focus is on a couple who are enjoying a date night on the town, taking in live music and dancing on Nashville's popular Broadway strip. It's not until the end that we find out this couple is not simply infatuated with one another — they've got a new baby at home, and return to gaze lovingly over their bundle while he or she sleeps.
It's the kind of story a new dad like Scott knows well. He and wife Blair welcomed a son, Beckett, in 2017.
The "You Got Me" video was directed by Matt DeLisi and completely shot in Nashville at some of Scott's favorite hidden gems. The song was written by Justin Wilson, Jason Sever and Kyle Fishman, and Scott hand-picked it for his upcoming EP, Nothing to Do Town.
The release drops on April 26 and will feature the single "Nothing to Do Town" and "You Got Me," as well as four other songs Scott co-wrote. More music is on the horizon, too — Scott is expected to release his sophomore full-length album expected later this year, following his 2016 self-titled debut album reached No. 5 on Billboard's Top Country Albums chart.
Scott continues his Nothing to Do Town Tour which kicked off last month to support his upcoming EP. Rising artist Seth Ennis is supporting on all dates.
