You never saw it coming. It was just an ordinary day, and you were simply following your normal routine. Then, the two of you lock eyes, and from that moment on, your life would never be the same. This is precisely the experience beautifully captured in Mary Akpa's new video for her single, "That Day on the Train." The song tells the story of two strangers finding each other on the subway. While the track itself leaves us reminiscing of past love, similarly, we can't help but smile as Akpa takes us through this love journey visually.
We watch as the hustle and bustle of the city seems to slow and disappear as the two gaze at each from opposite sides of the train. We get a glimpse as they meet on the platform and swoon as her suitor lovingly twirls her locs around his fingers. We see them freeze time as they lay together enveloped in innocent intimacy on a countryside filled with colorful flowers. While Akpa speaks love's language with lyrics like, "Your fingers fit through mine like a miracle," the video shows us exactly what love looks like.
The song, and its accompanying video directed by Chika Okoli and Akpa, are the first releases since the Nigerian native and Southern California-bred soul singer/songwriter's 2012 EP entitled, Brave. Since then, she's taken a more personal approach to music and admits that she drew inspiration for the song from her own experience. "So I met a person on the train who just shook my whole world and it happened right away," she explains. "It wasn't a physical attraction — it was a scene where your spirit recognizes a like-minded spirit." Of her new single she says, "'That Day on the Train' is a reflection of love found in the most unexpected of places— on a subway ride in Brooklyn. It travels through the spectrum of love's symptoms, from the euphoric to the chaotic, and arrives at the question: what is this thing they call love?"
We may not be able to answer that question, but we are certain that it flowed all up and through her blissful and exquisitely shot video. Revisit love's newness, and watch Mary Akpa's "That Day on the Train" below.

The Machine Making sense of AI
VB Live
Wayfair's AI-powered recommendation engine will soon be table stakes (VB Live)
VB Staff	 February 16, 2018 9:15 AM

AI has become a must-have, offering companies the power to seamlessly anticipate customer needs and serve up hyper-personalized, emotionally resonant campaigns where and when they're most welcome. Join Wayfair's Director of Data Science and others to learn more about the business advantage it brings and how to get in the game when you join this VB Live event.
Register here for free.
Wayfair, the consumer décor and furniture giant, has been on the AI tech train for awhile now — and they've seen tremendous business value from applying machine learning and AI for the right use cases, says Dan Wulin, the company's Director of Data Science.
"We've had great returns on everything from marketing to on-site personalization to pricing," Wulin says. "And we've been putting a lot more energy into how we grow this function and invest more in it, because it's been super successful for us."
Their mission, Wulin says, boils down to one thing: How do we use all the data we have to give our customers have better experiences, both on the website and through our marketing? And a little more tactically, how do we use these algorithms to help the different teams at Wayfair make better decisions?
For marketing, that means figuring out how the company should be allocating its budgets to get the best return, determining which marketing creatives should be used for the most powerful results, or what products to show to customers on the website.
As they've continued to invest in AI, they've been increasingly able to innovate beyond the familiar AI use cases we've grown accustomed to, such as Amazon and Netflix's recommendation engine.
Those familiar engines often simply show popular items. If you buy a DVD, here's another popular DVD that people tend to buy with it, based on customer clicks and trying to guess what the customer was looking at without really thinking about the products they were clicking on.
"But because our catalog is so big and there's such a big variety of products, and our customers shop in such a visual way, we have to use AI in a different way to be successful," Wulin says.
In other words, consumers are sold on an item via a product's unique aesthetics — i.e., how good that lamp is going to look in the living room, and will it match my other awesome stuff.
"Then the goal is knowing what products to recommend using the image," he says. "If you look at what other companies are doing for product recommendations, nothing really scratches that itch."
So what Wayfair did was build an AI model where product images are used to teach the model which items are complementary. When a customer is shopping on the website, the recommendation engine looks at the items they've purchased previously as well as the things they've browsed, and tailors their recommendations and search results to surface the products that match their personal style. If somebody buys this sofa and that ottoman together, that goes in as a positive example for the model.
"No one on my team, or anywhere at Wayfair, has to write out or figure out what's going on," he explains. "Because of the sheer amount of data we have, from all the examples of our customers buying things that go well together, the model can figure that out on its own."
For example, if you've been browsing lots of sofas, and then you pop over to ottomans, rather than just showing you popular ottomans you'll see ones that the model determines will go well with what you've already purchased. It's like the engine has an opinion about your home decorating — and it's a really good one.
This kind of visual search technology also means that Wayfair can allow consumers to submit images of furniture that they're jonesing for on the site, and they'll get a search return full of items that look similar.
The company is building these solutions in-house, Wulin says, though they've benefitted from the AI work others have done, from Google to Facebook and other companies, big and small. But innovation is all home-grown.
"We're taking cutting-edge papers and research techniques and applying them to the problems we care about at Wayfair," he explains. "And for all the AI models that we're building, we're really adamant about testing them in the wild, whether that's on the site or in marketing. We're confirming that we're getting improved customer engagement and experience regardless. That's built into our culture and DNA as a data science team and a broader organization."
But, he says, don't be afraid to start simple.
"A lot of third-party vendors and data scientists immediately get down to the complex marketing solutions AI can deliver," says Wulin. "Maybe that is where you end up after a year or two or three, but what I've seen succeed is being pragmatic about things — being okay building a simple minimum viable product, and then once you have positive signs there, then invest to get more in-depth and more complex."
2018 is the year to seize the AI advantage. To learn more about starting simple, the technology it takes, and the opportunities you'll start to unlock, don't miss this VB Live event.

Lyon accept €27million bid for former Arsenal star Jeff Reine-Adelaide
Lyon manger Rudi Garcia is battling to keep hold of their prize assets including the likes of Houssem Aouar (Picture: Getty)
Lyon have accepted a €27million offer from Hertha Berlin for former Arsenal midfielder Jeff Reine-Adelaide.
The 22-year-old joined last season's Champions League semi finalists last summer having resurrected an injury ravaged career during his solitary season at Angers.
Reine-Adelaide made just 14 Ligue 1 appearances for Lyon last term, however, and had been keen to move on again in search of regular first team football.
Rennes had been in contention to sign the elegant midfielder whose burgeoning Arsenal career was effectively ended by a cruciate knee ligament injury but the French club were unwilling to to offer more than the €24m plus €1m in bonuses.
Hertha have now agreed personal terms with the France Under-21 international who is expected to complete his move to Germany before next week's deadline, according to BILD.

Lyon, meanwhile, are continuing to fend off interest from Arsenal in their captain and prize asset Houssem Aouar. Mikel Arteta has identified the 22-year-old as the ideal player around whom he can build a new-look midfield.
Lyon President Jean-Michel Aulas said earlier this week, however, that Arsenal's latest bid was rejected because it was 'timid' and did not reflect the midfielder's quality.
The Gunners have had two bids turned down for the player, with the latest believed to be in the region of £32million. Lyon were seeking around £55m for the Frenchman at the start of the transfer window but the Ligue 1 club are said to have lowered that asking price and would accept closer to £46m.
Asked about the nature of Arsenal's bid and why it was rejected, Aulas said: 'There was a timid offer. We felt like either they didn't consider the fact that this is a player in the French national team. 'So it was not an offer that was even susceptible to making us consider a sale.'

As I get a couple clients every year asking about this, and although I know it has been suggested in the past, I thought it time to bring the issue up again.
Although SmarterMail does handle the delivery of S/MIME & openPGP encrypted emails it can neither display nor create encrypted emails from within the webmail client itself.
Implementing this would require a Key-Pair Generator on the account settings page, with the ability to upload a Key-Pair as an alternative so that encrypted emails that are received from Contacts can be read within webmail, and having the ability to extract & store S/MIME public keys with Contacts so that emails that are sent to those Contacts can be encrypted (maybe by clicking on a Lock Icon in the TO: field).
Could this please be considered for a future release? I understand that it probably isn't even in the Top 10 most requested features, and pertains to a niche group of users, but it is requested enough by our clients to inquire about this yet again.
Yes! This would be a great feature!
We too require the use of digital S/MIME certificates to digitally sign (and in some cases to encrypt) emails and their attachments. This can be done using Outlook, but due to the issues that MS Outlook has with SmarterMail over EAS, not everyone is using Outlook, so having this feature in the web mail would be very, very useful.
Any plans to support this?

In defense of the Pentagon's budget
'The strategic landscape in the coming decades looks even more perilous,' say the authors.
By John O. Noonan and Jamie M. Fly
As the Obama administration unveils its fiscal 2012 budget Monday, the Pentagon is expected to take a hit. In advance of the budget's release, Defense Secretary Robert Gates announced significant cuts to Pentagon programs, totaling $78 billion over five years. The cuts are deep and far-reaching and will jeopardize the U.S.'s ability to fight and win wars.
Several critical weapon systems, believed safe after surviving a round of cuts in 2009, will now be defunded — forcing the services to develop less desirable options for force modernization already long overdue.
Most concerning, however, is a proposal to significantly decrease Army and Marine Corps end strength by tens of thousands of troops. Gates stated that by the end of 2015, the Army could be expected to sacrifice up to a full fighting division worth of soldiers, while the smaller Marine Corps would have to slash up to three brigades — roughly 15,000 troops.
Gates seems to be making the assumption that Afghanistan will be largely pacified by then — a dubious predication that could cost our fighting services critical manpower in an already personnel-heavy war.
As the combat load on the Marine Corps intensifies, Gates announced the cancellation of its Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle and a delay for the Marine Corps version of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. It is true that the Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle has had major cost overruns, and some question its utility given that Marines have not carried out amphibious landings for decades.
Regardless, both announcements, coupled with the reductions in end strength, raise serious questions about the Marine Corps' ability to carry out its core mission in coming decades.
Gates has already made significant efforts to save money. He cancelled 20 major systems in 2009 totaling $300 billion — including important programs like the F-22 Raptor and the Army's Future Combat Systems. Other vital replacement systems, like the Navy's CG(X) cruiser and the LCC Command Ship, were delayed or targeted for cancellation by last year's Quadrennial Defense Review.
In addition, Gates announced last year an effort to identify $100 billion of efficiencies in the Pentagon that could be reinvested in key modernization programs. While other federal agencies continue to run up spending and add to the deficit, Gates has worked intensively —– and successfully to clean up the Defense Department.
The problem now is that the White House appears dissatisfied with Gates's cost cutting. During the budget preparation process, the Office of Management and Budget reportedly sought to redirect Gates's $100 billion in savings to other parts of the federal budget.
It is worth asking whether other federal agencies or domestic entitlement programs have been forced to reduce their budgets to the same extent that the Pentagon has over the past two years. The reality is that domestic discretionary spending has ballooned during the Obama administration.
The focus on defense cuts sets a terrible precedent. The Obama administration, aided by the recommendations of several recent blue-ribbon panels, is heading down the path of reduced military capabilities and, consequently, a reduced U.S. role in the world.
Retired Lt. Gen. Gregory Newbold recently told The New York Times, "We'll just pray that we don't have to go into harm's way in the next 10 years."
But unfortunately, we are already in harm's way. The strategic landscape in the coming decades looks even more perilous. President Barack Obama's defense cuts come as China is growing increasingly assertive about its long-term interests, preparing itself for what its defense minister says could be "military conflict in every strategic direction."
Beijing's weapons procurement matches its rhetoric. The People's Liberation Army Air Force recently announced the first flight of its advanced J-20 stealth fighter, and the army deployed a new "carrier-killing" ballistic missile well ahead of initial projections. Both capabilities are directly targeted at U.S. military power.
China is just one example. We still need to win the war in Afghanistan, keep the peace in Iraq and win the war on terror while maintaining our global alliance commitments. We need to craft a strong, balanced force capable of reacting to any unanticipated contingency, which cancould emerge at any time — as recent events in Egypt have shown.
The 21st century security landscape is volatile. We can't do this on the cheap — and we can't do this on a defense budget that is declining.
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) recently said, "The Republican majority is going to be a majority of national security." With Obama's submission to Congress Monday of a declining defense budget, the new Republican majority will get an early opportunity to prove that to be the case.

Method: Just do it. It's an all or nothing kind of deal. If you don't haul yourself out of bed in one fell swoop then you're never going to get out of bed in time for work.
Survival Tip: Try not to raise your head too quickly, the resulting headache may set you back – lying on the sheets, rubbing your temples and rueing the day you discovered alcohol.
This is the first hurdle of the day. Many fall and simply call in sick.
Method: Post shower, head straight to your wardrobe, do not sit on your bed to contemplate things!
Survival Tip: Find your most professional looking outfit – you'll trick everyone into thinking you're at the top of your game.
The struggle to put on some jeans is overwhelming, but even clothing your aching body is an achievement in itself.
Method: Open the fridge, and assess its contents. If the look of smelly blue cheese or dinner leftovers has you running to the loo, then perhaps skip it until you're ready to eat.
Survival Tip: Eat eggs! Seriously. Eggs contain cysteine which breaks down the alcohol related toxins in your body.
Either you line your belly with nutritious food, or you skip the step altogether and hope your stomach settles.
Method: Keep looking ahead. Be alert. Be aware.
Survival Tip: If you can, take public transport. It is safer for you and for other commuters as you may not be on top form.
If you've gotten through the first few challenges then chances are you're going to survive the commute.
Method: Walk in with your head held high, say hello to everyone, and try to look very productive as soon as you get to your desk.
Survival Tip: Smile. If you look surly then it's going to be pretty obvious that you're not at your best.
Being cheerful isn't easy when you feel unwell, but just keep smiling and nobody will ever know!
Method: Get outside and go get some fresh air for yourself. Try to avoid lunch dates with colleagues and instead go find yourself some food to satisfy that hangover craving you no doubt have by now.
Survival Tip: Get a few snacks that you can nibble on at your desk throughout the day.
This is no doubt the easiest part of your day.
Method: Try to emulate that faux positive attitude you had walking in the door this morning, say hello to everyone once you get inside and try to nab a seat in a corner.
Survival Tip: Keep a low profile. You may be asked for your opinion, so try to keep it short and sweet.
If you're given the option to be more of a spectator, then a meeting can be a lot easier than actually sitting at your desk working.
Method: The mid-afternoon slump is difficult to overcome on a normal day, and if you're hungover then it is even more challenging. Try to start a new project, if you begin to tire of it take, a 5 minute water break and tackle it again.
Survival Tip: Start making your way through those snacks you bought at lunch.
Chances are your productivity is going to suffer here, but tomorrow is another day.
Method: Casually step up, smile, and say goodbye to all of your colleagues. You have made it through the day. You deserve a pat on the back.
Survival Tip: It is tempting, but don't be the person who jumps up the second you can leave. Try to stay a few additional minutes to tie up some work.
There is no real challenge here. The only hazard is ensuring that you leave at an acceptable time and that your boss doesn't spot you slinking away at your earliest convenience.

Otis Redding Foundation To Host Weekend Of Events Celebrating 81 Years Of Otis Redding
Photo: PictureLux/The Hollywood Archive/Alamy Stock Photo
The Otis Redding Foundation will celebrate Otis Redding's legacy on what would have been the Soul legend's 81st birthday. The events, to take place September 9-10 will bring world-renowned musicians to Macon, GA and serve as a major fundraiser to benefit the future Otis Redding Center for the Arts, which will further support the Foundation's mission to empower, enrich, and motivate youth through education programs involving music, writing, and instrumentation.
"Our family is elated to celebrate my dad's legacy in person for the first time since the pandemic. We are happy to bring the weekend-long celebration back to Macon and thank the countless patrons who have supported the Otis Redding Foundation since my mother established it in 2007. We're excited to share our vision of musical education with the community," says Karla Redding-Andrews, Vice President and Executive Director of the Otis Redding Foundation.
The weekend of events will kick off on Friday, September 9 with the highly anticipated ground-breaking for the new Otis Redding Center for the Arts—an 11,000 square foot space dedicated to musical education, outfitted with learning labs, collaborative spaces, practice rooms, and a stage for student performances.
That night, An Evening of Respect will take place at Macon's historic Grand Opera House and feature Grammy Award-winning, jazz-influenced pianist Robert Glasper and Grammy-nominated singer Mickey Guyton. During the event, the Otis Redding Foundation will honor supporters DJ Derrick "D-NICE" Jones, Georgia heroes Chuck and Rose Lane Leavell, Dr. Vickie Perdue Scott of Legacy Builders Foundation, and Dr. C. David Keith of Mercer University.
The Big "O" Homecoming Show will take place on Saturday, September 10 at the Capitol Theatre and feature performances by Kendra Morris, Monophonics, and The War and Treaty. The tribute show is a call back to Otis Redding's own Home Coming Show and Dance held at the Macon City Auditorium throughout the 1960's, where the singer brought his contemporaries and musical peers to Macon.
Since its inception, the Otis Redding Foundation has supported thousands of students in pursuit of their goals in music and the arts. Programs include the annual Otis Music Camp for ages 12-18, Camp DREAM for ages 5-11, music education workshops, private and group lessons, and opportunities to perform on iconic stages, such as the Ryman Theater in Nashville, TN.
The Otis Redding Foundation's mission is to empower, enrich, and motivate all young people through programs involving music, writing and instrumentation. Each partnership and program sponsored since its inception in 2007 supports the philanthropic commitment of Otis Redding to empower and enlighten all young people to fulfill their dreams.
The Otis Redding Center for the Arts is a multipurpose space open to students ages 3-18 who have a desire to explore their interest in all elements of music and the arts. Planning is well underway with a proposed opening in 2023. The Center will be staffed with Macon's finest musicians offering private music lessons in areas such as piano, audio engineering, strings, and more. Students are encouraged to go beyond and tap into their best effort. The Center believes in the vitality of music and the arts and continues to develop those avenues for youth.
Partnerships with Mercer University, Middle Georgia State University, Georgia Southern University and more, help make these efforts possible for students.

ARCH ENEMY Reveal Cover Art & Further Details On Their New Album 'Will To Power'
June 21, 2017 Kickey
Extreme metal giants ARCH ENEMY are ready to bring their fierce brand of metal to audiences worldwide as they announce details on their upcoming album, "Will To Power" which will be out on September 8, 2017 via Century Media Records. The band revealed the new album's captivating cover artwork, designed by Alex Reisfar. You can check out the artwork below.
Guitarist Michael Amott commented on the artwork:
"It was a pleasure working with Alex Reisfar on the 'Will to Power' cover artwork, he immediately grasped the concept and atmosphere we were looking for with this album. We talked about the double edged sword that is human ambition, how it can be outstandingly creative and beautiful but can also be turned into something dark and powerful. Alex proceeded to masterfully paint a strong image that evokes a lot of feelings. The human skull as a central focal point, the flesh sort of falling off into the circular pattern. The snake ouroboros weaving in and out of the mouths and throats of the severed heads of a wolf, a goat and a vampire bat… All representing self determination and a predatory, almost parasitic will to power"
Shortly after the album's release, the "Will To Power" touring cycle will kick off with shows in Eastern Europe, Austria, Finland and Russia, to be followed by an extensive North America tour in October / November. A full European tour can be expected in early 2018. Following in the steps of their most acclaimed album to date, "War Eternal", which saw the band reach their highest charts in the US and Germany to date, "Will To Power" will continue to smash records worldwide.
"Will To Power" will be a bold sonic statement that ARCH ENEMY in this day and age is virtually unstoppable.

Inuyasha Vol 47 (Ch 463-465) *SPOILERS*
March 20th, 2007 AstroNerdBoy
Thanks to Freelance for the scans.
Kagome sees that Naraku's nearly completed Shikon no Tama is within Kikyou. It is corrupted and obviously has been hidden there by Naraku. Kikyou's Shinidamachuu arrive with souls to fuel her. Kagome readies her bow and wonders if Kikyou wants Kagome to shoot her now. Naraku sees this and attempts to interfere, but the Shinidamachuu hold her up. Naraku then goes for the Shikon no Tama and Kagome fires her arrow while the Shinidamachuu come with souls. The result has Kikyou purifying the gem. In addition, using her powers and the Shinidamachuu, she repels Naraku's attempt to take the gem and launches Kagome's arrow (which is embedded in the Shikon no Tama) back at Naraku.
Naraku fights the effects and indeed, corruption appears within the gem. As Naraku starts to gloat, Kikyou's powers start breaking Naraku apart. This allows Inuyasha to free Kouga from being consumed but not before Naraku grabs his two shards. Kagome sees within the gem that the power of Naraku and Kikyou are fighting for control.
Kikyou tells Kagome the rest is up to her as Kagome notes that Naraku's jyaki is spreading within the Shikon no Tama. Kikyou tells Kagome that the final shard within Kohaku is their last hope and that it is something only Kagome can do. Kagome begins to realize that Kikyou is dying and Naraku attempts to finish her off. Kagome gets on top of Kikyou to protect her and Inuyasha comes in to deflect Naraku's attack. Naraku is triumphant and gloats about the remaining shard, asking Inuyasha how he's going to fight without Kikyou. Naraku vanishes and Kikyou tells Kagome that the bow from Mount Azusa is now hers.
Elsewhere, Rin cautions Kohaku that he shouldn't be moving since he's still recovering from the poison of the snakes. Kohaku senses that Kikyou has become very weak and wants to return to her, but Rin warns about the dangers. Jaken states that Sesshoumaru-sama won't allow Kohaku to stay and that Jaken will not allow Kohaku to trouble Sesshoumaru-sama. Rin reluctantly agrees with Jaken's statement, but Sesshoumaru notes a scent in the wind and off hand says that it is too late.
Back at the village near the well, Kaede notes the color of the sunset while elsewhere Inuyasha holds the body of Kikyou. Kagome can't believe she was unable to save Kikyou and Inuyasha asks for some time alone with Kikyou. As Kagome cries, Kikyou wishes Kagome not to cry as her soul has been saved.
Night has fallen and Sango, Miroku, Kagome, Shippou-chan, and Kouga site on the side of a hill. Miroku regrets not having taken out Naraku with the Kazaana due to his fear of death. He remembers Kikyou's sacrifice of her own life force to heal him. Sango feels that Kikyou saved Miroku for her sake since Kikyou had Kohaku. She quietly reflects on how she had hated Kikyou for using Kohaku, but realizes that Kikyou would fight to protect Kohaku.
Kouga quietly reflects on how his Shikon shards are gone but he's still alive. Kagome is depressed that she was unable to save Kikyou. She tells Kouga that it she'd only gotten there sooner or only had more power, things would be different. Kouga tells Kagome that it appeared that Naraku didn't want Inuyasha and Kikyou to see each other, but Inuyasha did make it in time. As such, Kikyou will not die in arms of one she hates.
Inuyasha holds the dying Kikyou who talks of their past before they were split apart by Naraku. Kikyou was going to give up being a miko and become a normal woman and Inuyasha was going to be transformed into a human to live with her. Kikyou reflects that she's now become a normal human woman and Inuyasha tells her that she was the first woman he ever loved. He cries as he tells her he wasn't able to save her. Kikyou observes that this is the first time she's seen him cry and tells him that it was good enough that he came for her. They kiss and her body dissolves into light with all of the souls now free. Shinidamachuu arrive to gather the souls and the group notes the light and warmth before the Shinidamachuu leave the area, leaving Inuyasha to say that Kikyou won't suffer any more and Kagome to recall that he'd said he'd always protect her.
Well, there were two very important events that happened. First, Kouga loses his shards. Eventually that had to happen, but for it to happen now surprised me. Second, Kikyou's death. At this point, I really think Takahashi-sensei is deconstructing things to push for the ending of the manga. Granted, Kikyou was brought back once and could be done so again, but I just don't think that's going to happen. So I predict that the manga will end by the end of 2007.

Art Nouveau Rugs
Beautiful Selection of Art Nouveau Rugs and Carpets from 1890 – 1915
Art Nouveau Rugs and Carpets or the new art is one of the first modernist design movements, which thrived between 1890 and 1915. The term Art Nouveau was first coined in 1908 following the Exposition Universelle of 1900 where the German-owned, Parisian gallery known as the " Maison de l 'Art Nouveau " featured home furnishings, carpets, and tapestries in the revolutionary new style. The influential but short-lived Art Nouveau period marked a dramatic departure from the elaborate designs associated with Victorian era.
While Alphonse Mucha, Antoni Gaudi, and Gustav Klimt were building the Art Nouveau legacy in Europe, American and English designers like Gustav Stickley, Louis Comfort Tiffany, Frank Lloyd Wright, and William Morris, were forging their own design philosophy combining Art Nouveau themes with features unique to the Arts and Crafts movement.
By WWI, Art Nouveau designs were going out of favor, and the public was moving toward the streamlined functionalism of Art Deco furniture. However, the interest in the sensuous flowing lines and naturalistic elements of Art Nouveau carpets and furniture was renewed in the psychedelia of 1960's.
Art Nouveau style embodies botanical motifs, symbolic figures, and elements borrowed from Pre-Raphaelite artists, Medieval European tapestries, Eastern folk art, and Celtic knot-work. Before the definitive beginning of the Art Nouveau period, British textile designer and creative luminary William Morris designed several extremely important carpets, such as the 1874 Tulip and Lily carpet and the 1883 Holland Park carpet, which remain influential in textile design.
Art Nouveau motifs are typically naturalistic with insects and birds, such as dragonflies peacocks, dominating popular patterns along with cattails, lilies, lotuses, thistles, irises and other botanical or floral elements.
Line-based geometric designs with symmetric and asymmetric forms and framed borders are popular in Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts style carpets and design objects. Art Nouveau designs typically contain sinuous lines reminiscent of Alphonse Mucha's nymphs with long, flowing hair while carpets with angular borders are associated with designs by noted typesetter and Arts and Crafts pioneer William Joseph "Dard Hunter." Art Nouveau designers also updated and simplified classic Rococo designs featuring ornate shells and floral scrolls.
Due to technology and trends, color schemes varied greatly in Art Nouveau carpets as did rug production methods. Mossy earth-tones dominated Arts and Crafts carpets while Art Nouveau carpets often featured bright colors and gilded designs reminiscent of Oriental lacquer ware and Gustav Klimt paintings.
Many companies commissioned the leading Art Nouveau designers to create carpet patterns that could be mass-produced on American power looms. Art Nouveau carpet manufacturers traditionally used thick wool yarn with a coarse texture to reduce the number of knots needed to produce a strong, resilient pile. Although mass production and new materials were welcomed by many, there was still a market for high-end wool carpets that were commissioned and hand-knotted for wealthy patrons.
William Morris was a known purist who supported the Aesthetic Movement, a backlash against industrialization. According to historians, William Morris used only natural dyes to produce his hand-knotted rug designs, which often resulted in muted tones.
In Ireland, the competing Donegal carpet house, operated by Scotsman Alexander Morton, experimented with newly developed synthetic dyes that produced unnaturally bright colors. Originally, the Donegal factory intended to produce affordable replicas of luxury carpets design by William Morris, so their materials and construction methods varied slightly. The legendary British Art Nouveau architect and designer C.F.A. Voysey produced carpet patterns for Donegal and other companies for more than fifty years between the 1880's and 1930's.
From Stickley's simple flat-woven druggets to the ornate hand-knotted carpets produced by William Morris, Art Nouveau carpets have been influenced by Louis Comfort Tiffany's stained glass, Dard Hunter's design and print work, Alphonse Mucha's nymphs with wind-blown hair, and many other designers who worked during the turn of the century.

Q: "You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "Share on name.domain.com"." I am having some issues with Samba on my Fedora file share server. I've logged into as the vncuser below on the server itself and I can access the directory, however I get permission denied errors when I try to access it over Samba.
In the smb.conf file the following share works:
[Admin]
    path = /
    comment = Admin Share (read only)
    read only = true
    directory mask = 0775
    force user = root
    valid users = "Admins"

In the smb.conf file the following share does not work:
[Data]
    path = /mnt/sdb1/share
    comment = Data Share
    read only = no
    directory mask = 0775
    force user = vncuser
    valid users = "Admins"

The error I get is a permission denied error:

You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of
  "Share on name.domain.com".

The permissions on the share folder are as follows:
drwxrwxr-x. 4 vncuser  vncuser   4096 Sep 23 08:36 share

Does anyone have any suggestions or see anything wrong with the configuration? Again the Admin share is working fine its just the Data share that is failing.

A: Are you using SELinux? Does Samba have access to /mnt/sdb1/share? With apps such as SELinux or AppArmor you typically have to grant the app permission to access a particular directory/device as well. They're called "contexts" in SELinux.
You can check using ls -Z for example:
$ ls -Z /var | grep "log$"
drwxr-xr-x. root root    system_u:object_r:var_log_t:s0   log

Want to know more about gun games online? Are you anxious about discovering priceless strategies in shooting flash games? Expose latest news about gun games.
Imagine an usual day of the internet user. It does not matter which website you surf, as a rule, you will meet and face a content, that is unblocked. Let me explain what does this word – unblocked – mean. For example, there is a company called "Best Flash Games". This organization is well structured and has definite goals and objectives. What happens if this company owns developers and make them create and develop several flash games? What would you do? The first thing, that comes up is copyrighting.
If you create a product, there is no doubt, you will request, that your game in our situation, must be protected and distributed only on your behalf. Today's internet aggressively violates this fundamental rule of copyrighting, less and less people respect this law. This is the main reason why the United States of America and whole Europe fights against piratic content, it does not matter if the object is movie, picture, pdf file or a game. To begin with, I want to discuss this matter from two points of view. The first one is a creator of products as you have already guessed and another is the users – people like you.
To begin with, the last line of defense games is extremely hard to play. Your role is to stay strong and do not let your enemies across the border, that is the only barrier between evil species and last members of humanity. The main idea and plot of these kind of flash games is to kill all of the opponents who are trying to demolish your defense line. As a rule, your wall must have some life points.
GunGamesHub blog helps our main website to increase communication between our dear users. When you get a high score or accomplish the most difficult mission in any of our gun games, it is very normal to be proud of it. Get a screenshot of it, send it via email and we will place it on our blog to notify others about your achievements. All the topics related to gun games will be placed on our blog. People will discuss new games, advise others how to play, what to do, how to overcome most difficult barriers in specific games. In the future, there will be added a feature that will give you the opportunity to write an article for us. Your article must be about gun games or flash games - this is the only restriction. We want you to be serious about it. Send us your posts at our Facebook Page or at Twitter. We are open for your messages and notifications at Google Plus too. You can easily visit our main website and go to Contact Us webpage from there. Fill in your information and send us your suggestion or article that you want to be put on our blog. After becoming an author of post on our blog, your presence will be notified to all our social network followers. Our administration will weekly update high scorers. If you will not be among the top players, don`t worry, you will have lots of opportunities to do it. Gun Games Hub Blog will always help our users to solve their not only game play issues but technical problems too. If you can`t join our main website and cannot be excited with tons of our games, then we will make sure all your problems are solved. Just start a post at our blog discussing your problem and we believe that you will quickly get a hand from us. Moderators of our blog will help you online. If it is not enough and sufficient for solving you issues, then we will use TeamViewer and other software to personally check your situation and fix your technical problems. Unlike other genres, gun games are really specific. If you want to play them, then you must have a mouse. Otherwise, it will be very hard to accomplish even easiest missions. As you know, you will have to aim your target and without using a mouse it is kind of impossible. On the other hand, loudspeakers or headphones will be a great help for you to pass several truly hard levels. In some games you will have to use the voices the game has. For example, human step voices, screaming, coughing and many others. Discovering enemy is the key to your success, so hearing voice messages will help you to expose opponent and all of this will lead you to a big victory.
It is twenty first century now. Everyone knows that media content is a way more valuable than just a bunch of text. You may read hundreds of words, but in vain, instead you could look at one simple graph or image and everything would be clear in just seconds. To assume, readers spend much less time when getting new information if they read media data, rather than when reading plain text. You will agree, that plain text is really boring. After reading several paragraphs you may not have motivation and feeling to continue reading. What does it mean? It means, that due to your laziness or inexperienced you have lost a reader and a potential fan. It is an absolute reality. Nobody wants it, nor us. So our free advice to you will be to let media content be a part of your article. By this move, both of us will take advantage - you will have more readers and we will have more pleased users and visitors. Videos can play a big role. Use them appropriately, create your own walk-throughs and tutorials. You will get readers and watchers too. Please, record good quality videos, otherwise, your video will be removed from your post or your article will not be accepted. Use graphs and other statistic expressing methods to show data variation wisely.

Вдовичка рудошия (Vidua interjecta) — вид горобцеподібних птахів родини вдовичкових (Viduidae).

Поширення
Вид поширений в тропічній Африці від Сенегалу до Ефіопії. Живе у сухій савані з розрідженими лісовими ділянками.

Опис
Дрібний птах, завдовжки 13-14 см, вагою 20-21 г. Це стрункий на вигляд птах, із закругленою головою, міцним і конічним дзьобом, загостреними крилами та хвостом з квадратним закінченням. У самців голова, горло, спина, крила та хвіст чорні. У шлюбний період чотири центральних пера хвоста стають дуже довгими та вузькими до 38-40 см завдовжки. Груди та боки шиї рудовато-мідного кольору. Черево та потилиця бежеві. У самиць верхня частина тіла сіро-коричнева з темними смужками на спині та темнокоричневими бровами над очима. Нижня частина тіла світло-сіра. В обох статей очі темно-карі, а ноги та дзьоб червоні у самиць і чорні у самців.

Спосіб життя
Поза сезоном розмноження трапляється у змішаних зграях з астрильдовими і ткачиковими. Живиться насінням трав, яке збирає на землі. Рідше поїдає ягоди, дрібні плоди, квіти, комах.

Розмноження
Сезон розмноження триває з листопада по лютий у північній частині ареалу, тоді як популяції, що поширені по екватору, відтворюються в кінці сезону дощів. Гніздовий паразит. Підкладає свої яйця у гнізда астрильдів Pytilia phoenicoptera. За сезон самиці відкладають 2-4 яйця. Пташенята вилуплюються приблизно через два тижні після відкладення: вони народжуються сліпими і немічними. Вони мають мітки на сторонах рота і горла, ідентичні тим, як у пташенят астрильдів, внаслідок чого їх не можна відрізнити. Пташенята ростуть разом з пташенятами прийомних птахів, слідуючи їхньому циклу росту. Вони залишають гніздо через три тижні після вилуплення, але незалежними стають до півторамісячного віку. Часто ці пташенята залишаються у зграї своїх прийомних батьків.

Jamie Vardy finished off a superb flowing team move by Leicester City to make it just 2-1 to Tottenham in today's Premier League clash at Wembley.
The former England international pounced from close range inside the box to halve the deficit for the visitors, giving the Foxes a late lifeline against Spurs.
This followed a spell of quality possession and passing from Leicester, who completely opened their opponents up with this fine move.

Ezra Klein Leaves Vox for The New York Times
Ezra Klein, a founder of the popular website Vox.com, is leaving the publication to become a columnist and podcast host at The New York Times, the latest high-profile departure from Vox Media during a wave of change in the digital media business.
Mr. Klein had already stepped aside as editor in chief to become editor at large in 2017, three years after he helped to start the site. The move allowed him more space to work on Vox.com's television and podcast efforts. He has also been a contributor to MSNBC and Bloomberg News, and has written opinion essays for The Times.
After nearly eight amazing years building, editing, and working at @voxdotcom, I am leaving to join @nytopinion, writing a reported column on policy and the policymaking process, and hosting an interview podcast.
Lauren Williams, Vox.com's editor in chief, will also be leaving the publication to start a nonprofit to create a "new and different kind of Black news outlet," the company announced in a note to the staff on Friday. Vox Media plans to hire a new editor for its flagship site and has open positions for other senior roles.
Mr. Klein will join The Times in January to write columns focused on policy and to host an interview podcast.
"He helped set the standard for modern explanatory journalism early in his career, and he's been able to do it through virtually every medium," read a note from Kathleen Kingsbury, The Times's acting head of the opinion department, and Paula Szuchman, the head of its audio group.
After his years at Vox.com, Mr. Klein said in an interview, he "began to feel more burnt out and felt the desire to return to just being a journalist again."
Mr. Klein belongs to the generation of journalists who helped pioneer the vernacular of web publishing, and Vox.com was early to explanatory journalism, a genre that takes readers through complicated issues step by step. Through much of the 2010s, the growth of upstart publications like Vox.com and BuzzFeed suggested that traditional institutions, including The Times and The Washington Post, would wither.
"I think that analysis was pretty mistaken," Mr. Klein said.
Digital publishing, he explained, doesn't abide by zero-sum rules: Readers of one publication may also read hundreds of others.
"The idea that these digital-native publication were somehow going to destroy what came before them was always ridiculous," he said.
The departures of Mr. Klein and Ms. Williams come as a blow for Vox Media, which has made big bets on boldface names in journalism. In addition, Matthew Yglesias, another co-founder of Vox.com, announced his departure this week, to start a newsletter at Substack, a subscription platform. In his return to blogging, Mr. Yglesias has weighed in on a possible Biden cabinet, the Disney+ show "The Mandalorian" and why McDonald's puts pickle slices on the burgers included in Happy Meals.
The tech reporter Casey Newton left The Verge, Vox Media's technology site, this year to start his own Substack newsletter. Kara Swisher, another Vox Media star, remains part of the company, but joined The Times as an opinion columnist in 2018 and this year has started hosting a Times podcast, "Sway." She still manages the annual Code Conference, which is owned by Vox Media. (I used to work for Ms. Swisher and was an employee of Vox Media.)
Last year, Vox Media acquired New York Magazine in a deal that signaled the start of a consolidation wave in digital media. Several high-profile mergers followed shortly thereafter: Vice Media bought Refinery29; Group Nine merged with PopSugar; and on Thursday, BuzzFeed announced its purchase of HuffPost.
Jim Bankoff, the Vox Media chief executive, said the company was now in a position to withstand the loss of key employees. "All the Vox Media brands are well past the point where they are about individuals," he said in an interview. "By themselves, each site is a massive, mainstream, modern media brand that touches tens if not hundreds of millions of people across every conceivable platform."
He said several Vox sites, including The Verge and Eater, continued to grow after their founders had left. And he suggested that Vox Media may get bigger.
"In a consolidating market, we're going to act strategically," he said. "We look forward to any opportunities as they come up in 2021."

A danger underestimated: Nicotine products consumption and the lungs
An increasing variety of nicotine-containing products is available. The consumption of e-cigarettes, traditional cigarettes, and also cannabis, could be more harmful than smoking alone.
A steep rise in consumer spending observed
An increasing variety of nicotine-containing products is available. The consumption of e-cigarettes, traditional cigarettes, and also cannabis, could be more harmful than smoking alone.1
Prof. Charlotta Pisinger (University of Copenhagen & Danish Heart Foundation) pointed out that a new generation of products, including e-cigarettes, smokeless tobacco, nasal snuff, snus, and oral nicotine products or nicotine pouches, are all non-flammable but highly addictive due to their nicotine content. With these products, the tobacco industry is trying to rehabilitate its reputation by claiming that they are products with a reduced health risk factor. The tobacco industry had to adapt to marketing restrictions and health warnings for conventional tobacco products. "With these novel products, they were mostly able to circumvent means of tobacco legislation such as a tobacco ban", said Prof. Pisinger. Moreover, the tax rates are considerably lower than for ordinary cigarettes, which means higher profits for the companies. The large increase in the number of consumers of new generation products is mainly driven by young non-smokers, Prof. Pisinger said.
Multiple types of consumption, especially by young men
Another trend indicates that there is a rapidly growing number of consumers who use more than one device. "This increase in multiple-use is a dream scenario for the tobacco industry," said Prof. Pisinger. This increasing rate of dual, triple, and multiple-use could be observed among young people all over the world. A large Canadian cohort study with about 40,000 high school students showed a steep increase in multiple-use (i.e. smoking, vaping, marijuana/cannabis) between 2013/14 and 2017/18, especially among young men.
Respiratory symptoms from e-cigarettes
A number of studies have looked at the dual use of e-cigarettes and regular cigarettes. Cross-sectional studies in the population showed that the prevalence of respiratory symptoms was highest among current smokers who also consumed e-cigarettes2. Dual-use was also associated with poorer breathing. Longitudinal cohort studies documented that the toxicity burden was highest among dual users. In addition, according to a Korean study, dual users had an almost threefold higher relative risk of developing metabolic syndrome compared to non-smokers. They also had higher urinary cotinine levels and a higher nicotine dependence than cigarette smokers alone3. "In addition, studies have shown that poly-tobacco consumers have almost certainly also consumed marijuana," said Prof. Pisinger. Although it is methodologically difficult to assess the effects of cannabis smoking compared to tobacco smoking, there is evidence that cannabis smoking may be even more harmful to the lungs than smoking. "Taken together, we have a very good reason to be concerned about this new type of multiple-use," concluded Prof. Pisinger.

Petitioning for Nonintervention Powers After Your Appointment
Without Notice of Hearing
By Consent
Through a Noticed Hearing
You may find yourself in the situation where you believe it would be best for you or circumstances force you:
First, to be appointed as Decedent's Personal Representative, and
Later, to obtain Nonintervention Powers.
If so, and assuming that the estate is solvent (an absolute requirement for obtaining Nonintervention Powers), here is how you might obtain them, in increasing order of complexity:
Determine if you qualify for Nonintervention Powers without having to send Notice of Hearing — namely whether you fall into either of the following two categories (See RCW 11.68.011(2)(a) and (b)):
The combined probate and nonprobate estate is solvent, and
of the following two situations is true:
Decedent died testate, and Decedent's Will names you as Decedent's Personal Representative; or
Decedent died intestate, and:
Decedent's surviving spouse, and
Decedent's estate consists only of community property, and
At the time of filing the Petition, all of any then living children (or lower issue) of Decedent were also your children (or lower issue).
If so, then:
Complete a Petition for Nonintervention Powers (Without Notice) form.
Complete an Order Granting Nonintervention Powers form.
"Walk them through the Court."
If you can't qualify as above, then so long as:
The combined estate is solvent, and
You were not a creditor of Decedent at his/her death, …
you may yet qualify for Nonintervention Powers without having to send Notice of Hearing (See RCW 11.68.011(2)(c) and 11.68.041(2)(a)):
Complete a Petition for Nonintervention Powers (With Notice) form.
Complete a Consent to Grant of Nonintervention Powers & Waiver of Noticeform for each Heir, Beneficiary, and person from whom you have received a Request for Special Notice under RCW 11.28.240. Obtain all of the respective signatures.
you should still be able to obtain Nonintervention Powers, but you will need to set a hearing, send notice of the hearing, and file a Notice of Hearing & Declaration of Mailing. See RCW 11.68.041(2) To do so:
Determine when probate petitions are heard at your Courthouse.
Select a suitable date and time for the hearing on your Petition, making sure that your proposed hearing date is at least 10 (+3) days into the future.
Complete a Notice of Hearing on Petition for Nonintervention Powers & Declaration of Mailing form.
Attach to your Notice a copy of your Petition and make sufficient copies of that combined document (Notice + Petition).
Mail a copy of that combined document (Notice + Petition) to each person entitled to notice:
Decedent's heirs,
Decedent's beneficiaries, and
Anyone from whom you have received a Request for Special Notice under RCW 11.28.240.
Who Is Entitled to Notice of Your Petition for Nonintervention Powers?
Timing: At least 10 days (+3 more days for giving notice by mail; total = 13 days) before the hearing.
At Court, file and obtain a conformed copy of your:
Petition and
Notice of Hearing & Declaration of Mailing.
Timing: At least 10 days before the hearing.
King County requires:
14 day notice (17 days if notice by mail).
Working Copies and a proposed Order to be filed with the Probate Department at least 7 days before the hearing.
Attend the hearing on your Petition. Assuming no one objects to your Petition, the Judge will likely ask you for a proposed Order. Hand it to the Judge (or to the clerk for the Judge) for his/her review and signature and return to you. It would be better practice for you to return the file and the signed Order to the Clerk's Office and obtain a copy of the signed Order for your records.


Google has announced Google Chrome Operating System which is the extension of Google Chrome browser.

Q: Why i can't sum an ArrayList Integer colum? I'm new to java and I can't figure it out, any tips?
I'm trying to sum all this numbers
like 719488 + 4093600 + 4096453 + 4096453 + 4096453 = Something
The result I'm getting is:
1438976
8187200
8192906
8192906
8192906
65536
655360
262144
262144
655360
262144
655360
65536000
2097152
8192906

Basically is multiplicating by 2 each number in each line by its own value.
Please, I need help.
Thank you
adding more info:

or:
int columTotal = 0

          for (int i = 0; i < num.length; i++){
              columTotal += num[i][0]

But it never sums only multiply by two

A: In your String Inodes = IUsed + IFree. When you find with the matcher one by one in each iteration all 3 values Inodes, IUsed, IFree are getting picked up. So each iteration is printing Inodes + IUsed + IFree. That's why you are getting double values here.
So your code should be like this:
public static void main(String[] args) throws JSONException {
    String strHDD = "df -i\n" + "Filesystem                    Inodes  IUsed    IFree IUse% Mounted on\n"
        + "/dev/mapper/vg0-rootvol       719488  42967   676521    6% /\n"
        + "devtmpfs                     4093600    436  4093164    1% /dev\n"
        + "tmpfs                        4096453      1  4096452    1% /dev/shm\n"
        + "tmpfs                        4096453   1384  4095069    1% /run\n"
        + "tmpfs                        4096453     16  4096437    1% /sys/fs/cgroup\n"
        + "/dev/sda1                      32768    351    32417    2% /boot\n"
        + "/dev/mapper/vg0-optvol        327680  19465   308215    6% /opt\n"
        + "/dev/mapper/vg0-homevol       131072    322   130750    1% /home\n"
        + "/dev/mapper/vg0-tmpvol        131072    166   130906    1% /tmp\n"
        + "/dev/mapper/vg0-varvol        327680   4486   323194    2% /var\n"

        + "/dev/mapper/vg1-optSPvol    32768000 156936 32611064    1% /opt/SP\n"
        + "/dev/mapper/vg0-varcrashvol  1048576     11  1048565    1% /var/crash\n"
        + "tmpfs                        4096453      1  4096452    1% /run/user/10603\n";

    String strRegex = "(\\d+)\\s+(\\d+\\s+(\\d+)(?=\\s+\\d+\\%))";
    Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(strRegex);
    Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(strHDD);
    int columTotal = 0;
    while (matcher.find()) {

      String[] stringArray = matcher.group().split("\\s+");

      List<String> list = Arrays.asList(stringArray);

      List<Integer> newList = list.stream().map(s -> Integer.parseInt(s)).collect(Collectors.toList());

      columTotal += newList.get(0);
      System.out.println("Value to add : " + newList.get(0));

    }
    System.out.println("Total : " + columTotal);
