I love the sense of expectancy on Christmas Eve. I love Christmas Day (although it's my day for being Martha) but there is something so special about the day and night before when it feels to me as though the whole world is holding its breath, waiting.
May I wish you ladies and Touri a very happy Christmas.
May I wish you all all preaceful and happy Christmas, as I like you eagerly await the Christchild, and look forward to the celebration of his birth at our midnight Mass. God bless you all.
I learnt this by heart at school in the days when learning by heart was still fashionable, and it has stayed with me ever since.
Can we picture you bustling about at a few minutes before midnight, preparing a great welcome?
Kind Christmas wishes to you all.
I love that poem, too! However, to disabuse you of any false ideas, we start our Christmas decorating , etc, in the afternoon so that we are more or less finished by Vespers, which is, of course, 1 Vespers of Christmas.
The waiting is so important. I remember years ago when I was part of a flower arranging team in our church, Christmas Eve fell on a Sunday. This meant that morning Mass was for Advent 4, so no flowers could be put out, but the pedestals still had to be prepared the day before on Saturday. We were all mums trying to prepare everything at home, too, after all. Immediately after the Advent Mass therefore a harassed group of women dived into the sacristy, where these pedestals had been stowed, thus getting in the way of the PP, who was delighted, of course, and servers! Somehow it all got arranged in the church and joy could finally be unconfined.
I wish you every blessing and joy this Christmas tide.
Thank you for your E-presence and your thoughtful spirituality, a wise counsel in this frenetic world.
Wishing you a Happy and a Merry Christmas, with love!


German WWII Summer White trousers. A pair of original White cotton summer use trousers, these could be used by several branches, Army, Luftwaffe, or Kreigsmarine. White straight leg trousers, have a front double hook clouser which shows veryfaint rust stains but not on the metal itself. The trousers show light use and minor stains, these would wash out if you choose. Back have a chromed double claw buckle adjustment strap. Cotton is smooth and soft. No markings which is normal on Whites. Metal dish buttons for the suspenders.


This book has a soul. A living, breathing story waiting to be read and taken in. The writing is completely lyrical creating visuals that make you see the world clearer. Tiffany McDaniel grasped a handful of reality and released it in this book. The beautiful and the ugly and everything in between. The raw honesty of human nature. Dealing with hard hitting topics that are written in a way that allows the reader to learn from them.
She touches on the fears we have in our lives, being alone, not being worth while, or never accepting who we truly are. Yet she also talks about conquering certain fears and moving on. Regrets and forgiveness. A whole story about learning to see beyond what we want to see and not judging too quickly what is good and what is bad.
It speaks of our hate and inabilities to leave prejudices and judgements behind. How our world isn't always the most accepting of others who are a bit different from ourselves. Often rejecting what we don't understand. There wasn't a chapter that didn't leave me thinking. I thoroughly enjoyed the beauty of the writing in this book all while crying at the heartbreaks of life.
A contemporary adult novel that was also a sort of coming of age story. In the sense that we are always still growing up and no matter our age our lives are still trying to come together. Each chapter told from narrator Fielding Bliss, as a now 84 year old man, about a summer in 1984 when he was 13. He ties in events through out his life that were effected by the events in '84. You see the man that is Fielding and was Fielding. You grow with him and can't help but break for him. Every character with their imperfections worked their way into my heart. Sal especially.
I am not walking away from this book light hearted by any means. You know from the moment this book starts big events would happen by the end. The tension growing with each chapter as new layer of information piled on that made up these characters. This book broke my heart and made me confront the darkness of the world around us. It is not an easy book to read but it is an important book to read. Simply, this book was haunting.
A very sensitive and heavy topic driven story, sure to bring you to tears. Thank you again Tiffany for sending me a copy!
He was the heart they could all be loved by, and yet not one of them loved him back.


EuropeFX is a broker owned by Maxiflex Global Investment Corp Ltd and regulated by CySEC. The EU wide passporting system allows this broker, as many others to access the european single market and offer same trading conditions to customers from almost every EU country. Overall with EuropeFX we liked the fact the broker uses STP execution which reduces the conflict of interest and multiple platforms that are available to customers. The broker offers a wide range of resources for traders that can help them become better in technical analysis and reading the market. We hope the crypto currencies will soon also be present in the asset index as promised, since many big brokers are already offering this.
As we already mentioned in the introduction, EuropeFX uses STP execution, meaning there is no middleman that will take other side of the trade. This also means that without being the middleman (aka the market-maker) EuropeFX does not stand to earn money when trader loses or wins money since all broker earns is the commission and it depends on the number of trades and not the size of losses.
EuropeFX claims the EAs (the strategy algorithms that can be included in MT4 platforms) are bad at reading ECN commissions so that's why they use STP. We did not hear about these complaints before, but it can also be that traders haven't raised them thinking the trade was just a bad luck, and not a miss because of the commission.
So, among the accounts, the main differentiator is the commission, with Platinum and Premium account enabling customers to talk to EuropeFX and check what they can offer to them for the expected volume of trades. From the total, we are not sure what are the benefits that can be achieved since we were unable to obtain a quote for the review. However, we are not sure the commission is the same as with ECN for every level of the volume per trade, as the commissions with ECN would be.
EuropeFX offers a range of platforms. The most popular one is, as always, the MetaTrader4 in all its iterations – client for windows and Mac, app for iOS and Android and also tablet version for iPad. There is a web-terminal too, that requires no download. All of these accessible through the single set of login credentials provided by EuropeFX upon registering for an account. EuropeFX also offers their own webtrader, but for the sole reason it uses Adobe Flash plugin, we would recommend traders to stay away.
EuropeFX also offers the TradeWorks as a cloud based automation software for algorithmic trading. TradeWorks system enables customers to make strategies which are then used to spot market opportunities, be executed and then execute the trade automatically. There are some strategies that are part of Tradewroks so traders may even not need to tinker much around the system to fire up automated forex trading. TradeWorks integrates with Metatrader4.
EuropeFX lets traders trade Forex, Equities, Indices and Commodities. They will introduce cryptocurrencies as currency pairs against USD soon. In total they have 51 currency pairs, 87 predominantly US stocks, 17 types of commodities and 30 indices and futures.
EuropeFX offers trading based on prices of cryptocurrencies in USD. So, if you see BTCUSD, it means you are trading Bitcoin in USD prices. This is a very forex type approach to cryptocurrencies trading. At the point of updating the review, EuropeFX website did not specify which cryptocurrencies are available. From the logos on their site, we could see Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Dash.
The EuropeFX website is translated in German and Italian, while there are available phone numbers to contact support from the UK, Germany Italy and Cyprus. Generally, live chat is available too as is the email support. We found the FAQ to be a bit lacking, so we guess the broker hopes most people will just use the live-chat that works directly from the website in case there are any questions.
The minimum deposit with EuropeFX is €200.
In order to withdraw money, make sure to verify your identity with the required documents. Best you do this when you open an account so you do not have to think about it later. Processing of withdrawals can take up to one day. The fees are not covered by the broker – meaning if your bank wants you to pay fee for sending/receiving money via bank wire, you will have to pay it.

Cancer Science & Oncology:
The branch of health care that determines the safety & efficacy of medications, devices, and diagnostics and also treatments intended for human use is termed Clinical Research .These are used for the treatment , prevention, diagnosis and relieving symptoms of the diseases. Clinical research may differ from clinical practice. Clinical Practice uses established process , whereas in case of clinical research evidence is collected for establishing the new treatment using "biological marker" .i.e. Biomarker refers to the category of medical signs or say objective indications of the medical state which is observed from outside the patient – and is measured accurately.
Singapore officially the Republic of Singapore, is a sovereign island city-state in Southeast Asia. It lies off the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula and is 137 kilometres (85 m) north of the equator. There are also numerous famous attractions within the city-state, notably Gardens by the Bay, Sentosa Island, Jewel Changi Airport, Marina Bay Sands, Orchard Road and the Singapore Zoo, which was ranked the best zoo in Asia.
During the Second World War, Singapore was occupied by Japan, Singapore gained independence from the British Empire in 1963 by joining Malaysia along with Sabah and Sarawak. Singapore is a highly developed country and is ranked 9th on the UN Human Development Index, With the 2nd highest GDP per capita in the world the highest in Asia for a sovereign state.
In the 1960s, the city-state of Singapore was an undeveloped country with a GDP per capita of less than U.S. $320. Today, it is one of the world's fastest-growing economies. Singapore's economic ascension is nothing short of remarkable. By embracing globalization, education, and pragmatic policies, free-market capitalism it has been able to overcome its geographic disadvantages and become a leader in global commerce.
For over 100 years, the Singapore was under the British control. But when the British failed to protect the colony from the Japanese during World War II, it sparked a strong anti-colonial and nationalist sentiment that subsequently led to Singapore's independence.
The Chinese in Singapore outnumbered the Malay three-to-one. As a way of ensuring a Malay majority within Malaysia proper and to limit the influence of communism, the Malaysian parliament voted to expel Singapore from Malaysia. Singapore gained formal independence on August 9, 1965, with Yusof bin Ishak serving as its first president and Lee Kuan Yew as its prime minister.
After independence, Singapore continued to experience problems. They became unfriendly states in Malaysia and Indonesia. Singapore lacked natural resources, proper infrastructure, adequate water supply and sanitation.
Singapore's economy was centered on entrepôt trade during colonial times. It is influenced by Israel's ability to leap over its Arab neighbors (who boycotted Israel) and trade with Europe and America, Lee and his colleagues knew they had to connect with the developed world and to convince multinational corporations to manufacture in Singapore.
Singapore had to create an environment that was safe, corruption-free, and low in taxation in order to attract investors. Lee's People Action Party (PAP) repressed all independent labor unions and consolidated what remained into a single umbrella group called the National Trade Union Congress (NTUC), which the party directly controlled.
By 1972, just seven years after independence, one-quarter of Singapore's manufacturing firms were either foreign-owned or joint-venture companies, and both the United States and Japan were major investors.
As a result, favorable investment conditions and the rapid expansion of the world economy from 1965 to 1972, the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) experienced annual double-digit growth. By the 1990s, they were engaging in wafer fabrication, logistics, biotech research, pharmaceuticals, integrated circuit design, and aerospace engineering.
A Modern Economy
The Port of Singapore is now the world's busiest transhipment port, surpassing Hong Kong and Rotterdam. It has become the world's second busiest in terms of total cargo tonnage handled.
Banking has grown significantly in recent years and many assets formerly held in Switzerland have been moved to Singapore due to new taxes imposed by the Swiss. The biotech industry is burgeoning, with drug makers such as GlaxoSmithKline, Pfizer, and Merck & Co.
Singapore is now the 15th largest trading partner of the United States. With a total land area of just 433 square miles and a small labor people of 3 million, Singapore is able to produce a GDP that exceeds $300 billion dollars annually. Life expectancy is 83.75 years, the third highest in the world.
Track 1: Cancer Stem Cell
Cancer Stem Cell (CSC) hypothesizes the presence of a little populace of diseased cells with characteristic properties like protection from traditional radio-chemotherapy regiments and increased metastatic potential. Clinically, the forceful idea of CSCs has been appeared to connect with expanded tumour repeat, metastatic spread, and generally very low patient result over various malignant growth subtypes. Separation of CSC's has been achieved through the use of cell surface markers by the useful contrasts among CSCs and remaining tumour cells have been portrayed through expansion, separation, and constraining weakening measures.
Track 2: Oncology Research
Oncology is a part of the medication that bargains with the anticipation, conclusion, and treatment of Cancer disease. Survival has been enhanced because of three primary segments including enhanced counteractive action endeavours to diminish presentation to chance elements (e.g., tobacco smoking and liquor utilization) enhanced screening of a few tumours (taking into consideration prior finding), and upgrades in treatment.
Malignant growths are regularly overseen through discourse on multi-disciplinary disease gatherings where radiation oncologists, pathologists, radiologists, and organ particular oncologists meet to locate the most ideal administration for an individual patient considering the physical, social, mental, and money related status of the patient. It is vital for oncologists to keep refreshed as for the most recent headways in oncology, as changes in administration of malignancy are very normal.

"I got a new iPhone," when your friend tells you that—you can either take it as a brag or excitement. To help detect the tone behind speech, a team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) built a wearable app that can parse conversation to identify the emotion behind each part of the story.
The researchers say that the system's performance would be further improved by having multiple people in a conversation use it on their smartwatches, creating more data to be analyzed by their algorithms. The team is quick to call that they've developed this system keeping privacy in mind: The algo runs locally on a user's gadget as a method for protecting personal information.
Numerous emotion-detection studies demonstrate participants "happy" and "sad" recordings, or ask them to artificially act out specific emotive states. In any case, with an end goal to evoke more organic emotions, the team rather requested that subjects recount a happy or sad story of their own picking.
The calculation is not yet sufficiently reliable to be deployed for social coaching, however Alhanai (Co-author of the paper) says that they are actively working towards that goal. For future work the team plans to collect data on a much bigger scale, conceivably utilizing commercial gadgets, for instance-- Apple Watch that would permit them to more effectively implement the system out in the world.

Jerzy Widawski (ur. 12 marca 1896 w Kijowie) – pilot sportowy, instruktor, pilot doświadczalny i automobilista.

Biogram

Młodość
Urodził się w rodzinie Konstantego i Heleny Widawskich. W roku 1917 zdał egzamin maturalny w 8-klasowej szkole średniej w Kijowie i zapisał się na Wydział Budowy Maszyn na politechnice kijowskiej. W tym samym roku rozpoczął naukę w szkole mechaników lotniczych 3 Awiacyjnego Parku, którą ukończył po 5 miesiącach.

W Wojsku Polskim
Po wybuchu rewolucji w Rosji wycofał się z wojska i wyjechał do Warszawy. Po przybyciu na miejsce, w październiku 1918 roku, zapisał się na Politechnikę Warszawską. W listopadzie 1918 roku brał udział w rozbrajaniu Niemców, a 11 listopada wstąpił do Wojska Polskiego jako mechanik lotniczy. Służbę rozpoczął w 1 kompanii Lotniczego Baonu Uzupełnień. Od 6 stycznia do 5 marca 1919 r. służył w 7 eskadrze myśliwskiej działającej na froncie lwowskim. Następnie został odkomenderowany do 4 eskadry wywiadowczej, przydzielonej do Dywizji Litewsko-Białoruskiej, jako szef warsztatów i obserwator lotniczy.

1 czerwca 1919 został awansowany do stopnia sierżanta i skierowany na naukę pilotażu w nowo utworzonej szkole lotniczej w Warszawie, tzw. Francuskiej Szkole Pilotów. Nowemu przydziałowi towarzyszy mianowanie na podchorążego (25 sierpnia). Naukę w szkole pilotażu zakończył 17 lutego 1920, następnie został skierowany na kurs w Wyższej Szkole Lotniczej w Poznaniu, który ukończył 30 maja 1920 i został skierowany do Francuskiej Szkoły Pilotów, w międzyczasie przeniesionej do Dęblina i przemianowanej na Wojskową Szkołę Lotniczą. W szkole pełni funkcję instruktora lotniczego, jednocześnie jest także szefem dywizjonu dziesięciu samolotów Nieuport, nadzoruje też pracę 20 mechaników obsługujących maszyny. Wraz z trzema innymi instruktorami zajmuje się szkoleniem lotniczym od 15 do 20 przyszłych pilotów. Jednocześnie zdobywa pierwsze doświadczenia w lotach doświadczalnych testując w locie nowo wyremontowane samoloty. Po zakończeniu wojny polsko-bolszewickiej, 5 maja 1921 wziął bezterminowy urlop z wojska i został przeniesiony do rezerwy w stopniu podchorążego rezerwy.

W przemyśle zbrojeniowym
Już 11 czerwca 1921 zatrudniła go spółka Francopol (Francusko-Polskie Zakłady Samochodowe i Lotnicze), która pod Warszawą miała wybudować fabrykę lotniczą i dostarczać dla polskiej armii myśliwce i bombowce, jednak pracy nie rozpoczął a już 20 czerwca rozpoczął pracę w warszawskiej fabryce amunicji "Pocisk". Początkowo był technikiem warsztatowym, następnie awansował na sekretarza wicedyrektora fabryki. W związku z uruchomieniem działalności Francusko-Polskich Zakładów Samochodowo-Lotniczych pracuje tam od 20 maja 1922 do marca 1923. W tym czasie otrzymał propozycję podjęcia pracy pilota oblatującego w Centralnych Zakładach Lotniczych na lotnisku mokotowskim.

Pilot doświadczalny
W okresie od 14 maja 1923 do 23 czerwca 1923 odbył ćwiczenia wojskowe rezerwy swojego rocznika. 1 maja 1925 został wysłany przez Departament IV MSWojsk do Francji w celu przygotowania technicznego samolotów na rajd generała Zagórskiego z Francji do Polski. Po powrocie do kraju 5 września 1925 objął stanowisko kierownika technicznego sekcji doświadczalnej przy Centrali Badań Lotniczych na Mokotowie. Na stopień podporucznika został mianowany ze starszeństwem z 1 lipca 1925 i 7. lokatą w korpusie oficerów rezerwy aeronautyki. W 1934 posiadał przydział w rezerwie do 6 pułku lotniczego we Lwowie. Na stopień porucznika został mianowany ze starszeństwem z 19 marca 1939 i 3. lokatą w korpusie oficerów lotnictwa.

10 września 1926 ustanowił na samolocie myśliwskim SPAD 61 rekord Polski w prędkości lotu wynoszący 255 km/godz., a 15 września tego roku przy starcie z obciążeniem 1608 kg rekord czasu wznoszenia na 6000 metrów wynoszący 13 minut i 34 sekundy. Był współzałożycielem Aeroklubu Akademickiego w Warszawie, poprzednika Aeroklubu Warszawskiego. Gdy w 1928 roku aeroklub otrzymał od Ligi Obrony Powietrznej i Przeciwgazowej trzy samoloty typu Caudron G.III wraz z subwencją w wysokości 9000 złotych, Widawski został pierwszym kierownikiem utworzonej przy aeroklubie Szkoły Pilotów, do końca 1929 przeszkolił sześciu pierwszych pilotów. Wszedł również w skład zarządu Aeroklubu Warszawskiego jako jego wiceprezes.

Jeszcze przez zamachem majowym nawiązał współpracę z Państwowymi Zakładami Lotniczymi (PZL) jako pilot doświadczalny. 26 kwietnia 1926 wykonał pierwszy lot na pierwszym zbudowanym w PZL egzemplarzu całkowicie metalowego samolotu myśliwskiego Wibault 70C1. Następnie oblatywał praktycznie wszystkie prototypy przygotowywane przez PZL. Między innymi w sierpniu 1934 wykonał pierwszy lot na prototypie samolotu PZL.23/I Karaś, we wrześniu 1934 oblatał samolot pocztowo-komunikacyjny PZL.27, a 13 grudnia 1936 wykonał pierwszy lot na prototypie samolotu bombowego PZL.37/I Łoś. Sprawdzał w locie również kolejne wersje tego samolotu wyposażone w inne silniki. W kwietniu 1938 wykonał pierwszy lot na prototypie dwusilnikowego samolotu myśliwskiego PZL.38 Wilk, a następnie próbę szybkości na wysokości 100 metrów nad ziemią. W czerwcu 1938 przeprowadził w Grecji obloty dostarczonych tam samolotów PZL.24 G. W sierpniu 1938 wykonał pierwszy lot na prototypie samolotu PZL.46/I Sum. W lutym 1939 wykonał pierwszy lot na prototypie nowego samolotu myśliwskiego w układzie dolnopłata PZL.50/I Jastrząb. W dniu 4 lipca 1939 wykonał pierwszy lot na zmontowanym w nowo wybudowanych zakładach PZL WP-2 w Mielcu samolocie PZL.37 Łoś (o numerze fabrycznym 72.193). Miał opinię spokojnego i zrównoważonego pilota szanowanego przez konstruktorów, którym dostarczał praktycznych informacji.

II wojna światowa
Po wybuchu II wojny światowej uczestniczył w ewakuacji prototypowych samolotów z zagrożonej nalotami niemieckimi Warszawy. 6 września 1939 podczas przelotu na małej wysokości z lądowiska w Popowie Kościelnym do Lwowa wskutek braku paliwa zmuszony był lądować w przygodnym leśnym terenie w okolicach Rawy Ruskiej. Samolot został uszkodzony, ale sam Widawski wyszedł szczęśliwie bez szwanku.

Podczas wojny znalazł się w Wielkiej Brytanii, gdzie wstąpił do Polskich Sił Powietrznych (otrzymał numer służbowy 76643). Nie dostaje jednak przydziału bojowego i jako pilot Atlantic Ferry Transport Organization przez całą wojnę zajmował się dostarczaniem samolotów z Kanady trasą transatlantycką. Szkolił także pilotów dla RAF w ośrodku szkoleniowym RCAF Jarvis w Kanadzie.

Na emigracji
Wojnę zakończył w polskim stopniu kapitana i w stopniu Flight Lieutenant w ramach Royal Air Force. 7 maja 1946 zakończył służbę w Polskich Siłach Powietrznych. Od 1947 roku mieszkał w Kanadzie. Na początku lat 80. korespondował z polskim historykiem Edwardem Malakiem.

Climbing is a superb way of getting fitter and stronger. Instead of just pumping weights and doing endless repeats of muscle-straining exercises for different parts of your body, climbing provides exercise for the whole body with every climb you tackle. There's such variety- every climb is different, and every time you do a climb, you do it in a slightly different way.
Climbing provides challenges which give you a great sense of achievement! The adrenalin rush of completing a climb you have been trying to do is totally different to the draining feeling of gym work-outs. Of course, we have a gym too! But that is designed to be a part of a total regime of physical and mental exercise, not simply an end in itself. Why not give Climbing a try? If you're over 18, you can just turn up and give it a go!


We are getting SO close to our end-of-quarter fundraising goal, but we need your help to hit our mark. With less than 10 days to go, I'm counting on you to chip in $250, $100, $50, or any generous amount you can afford. Donate now and let's close strong!


Roll up the rim just ended last month, and I didn't win any free donuts or coffees. A fact which I'm ok with if it means millions of coffee cups can be diverted from being put into landfills this year. The average coffee cup is used for 10 to 15 minutes, after which it spends ~500 years in a landfill. Considering an astounding 1.6 billion disposable coffee cups are thrown out each year in Canada alone, this is tremendous.
Therefore, rather than adding to the mountains of garbage in landfills, we can start making changes to avoid these costs to the environment. By remembering to bring a travel mug every time you stop at a café, you're not only diverting a piece of garbage into a landfill but you're also saving trees, water, and energy in its production. You will also be saving money because most businesses including those such as Tim Hortons, and Starbucks offer incentives such as 10 cents off your drink if you bring your own cup in. And if next time you're going to go study or meet a friend at a coffee shop and you realize despite your best efforts you've forgotten your travel mug, there are other alternatives. Most coffee shops also offer their own ceramic mugs you can use if you're planning to consume in store. As CBC's Marketplace pointed out, they're rarely offered up front but they do have them readily available for consumers.
And while carrying these disposable white cups, in many ways, has become a sign of status. With a shift in people's mindset, we could easily change over. Take for example the mug-sharing project UBC undertook in 2012, and many other places have also started. Similar to bike sharing you can pick up your coffee and travel mug at one place, and drop it off for cleaning at another. Imagine if every store did this. You'd never have to go more than a couple blocks to deposit your used cup. Change is possible if we continue to move forward with it.
However, change doesn't happen overnight. If you do forget your travel mug and buy a disposable one, in most places in the world, in fact even in most places in Canada, coffee cups are non-recyclable. Therefore they would usually just end up straight in the trash. However, the city of Vancouver as of 2016 does allow these cups to be put into recycling bins. As a result, it's important to ensure we're putting each piece of the cup, including the sleeve, lid, and cup into their appropriate bins. At SFU, this means cardboard sleeves can go into the yellow mixed paper bin, lids, if have a plastic number from 1-5, are recyclable, and at SFU the coffee cups are accepted into the food scraps and compostable bin.
While new habits such as remembering to bring a travel mug with you take time, simply being aware of the issues and the potential solutions related to them is the first step. Start a conversation with others, and if you feel you have a viable potential solution for the disposable cup conundrum formulate an idea. In September there will be a public input Talk Vancouver survey which will be accepting ideas for what can be done to conquer this issue. This is part of the city's plan to become a zero waste city through its Greenest City 2020 Action Plan. Take action and make changes one coffee at a time.

Something interesting and unexpected: a second-hand iPaq 5450 plays MP3s with much better quality than a dedicated Dell DJ MP3 player. Played through the same set of headphones, the stereo separation and dynamic range are noticeably better from the iPaq. I thought with dedicated hardware the Dell would perform at least as well as the iPaq, but not so.
I wonder where the difference lies? I guess the iPaq 5450 was a pretty hot piece of hardware when it first came out, so they didn't skimp too much on parts like the headphone plug. Plus it has a 400MHz processor, versus whatever 50 cent embedded Taiwanese chip the Dell uses. But surely the decoding process is no different if you're using hardware versus Windows Media 9? I'd love to know what makes such a huge difference.

Structured Abstract
Impaired visual acuity is common in preschool-aged children. Screening for impaired visual acuity in primary care settings could identify children with vision problems at a critical period of visual development and lead to interventions to improve vision, function, and quality of life.
To assess the effects of screening for impaired visual acuity in primary care settings in preschool-aged (1 to 5 years) children.
We searched Ovid MEDLINE from 1950 to July 2009, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews through the third quarter of 2009. We supplemented electronic searches with reviews of reference lists of relevant articles and solicited additional citations from experts.
Study Selection:
We selected randomized trials and controlled observational studies that directly evaluated screening for impaired visual acuity in preschool-aged children. To evaluate indirect evidence on screening, we also included studies on the diagnostic accuracy of screening tests for impaired visual acuity used in primary care settings, and randomized trials and controlled observational studies that reported clinical outcomes associated with treatments for impaired visual acuity due to refractive error, amblyopia, or amblyogenic risk factors (visual acuity, quality of life, functional capacity [including school performance], or adverse events).
Data Extraction:
One investigator abstracted data and a second investigator checked data abstraction for accuracy. Two investigators independently assessed study quality using methods developed by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force.
Data Synthesis:
No randomized trial evaluated outcomes of preschool vision screening compared with no screening. One large, fair-quality randomized trial nested within a population-based cohort study found that repeat orthoptist screening from ages 8 to 37 months was associated with reduced likelihood of amblyopia at age 7.5 years compared with one-time orthoptist screening at age 37 months on one of two definitions of amblyopia. A large, prospective cohort study from this population found that one-time orthoptist screening at age 37 months was associated with no significant difference in risk for amblyopia at age 7.5 years compared with no screening. No study evaluated school performance or other functional outcomes.
No screening test was consistently associated with both high (>90 percent) sensitivity and specificity. In the largest study to directly compare the diagnostic accuracy of different screening tests, differences in likelihood ratio estimates and diagnostic odds ratios for 10 different screening tests were generally small, with the exception of the Random Dot E stereoacuity test, which was associated with a lower diagnostic odds ratio. Diagnostic accuracy of preschool vision tests did not clearly differ in children stratified by age, though testability was generally lower in children ages 1 to 3 years, with the potential exception of the MTI photoscreener.
Three fair- or good-quality trials of preschool-aged children with amblyopia or unilateral refractive error found that treatment (patching and/or eyeglasses) resulted in small (<1 line on the Snellen eye chart) improvements in visual acuity in the amblyopic or worse eye compared with no treatment after 5 weeks to 1 year of follow-up. One trial found larger benefits in the subgroup of children with worse baseline visual impairment. No trial evaluated effects of treatment on school performance or other measures of function. Evidence on whether age has an impact on effectiveness of treatment is mixed. Amblyopia treatments were associated with reversible visual acuity loss in the nonamblyogenic eye in some studies. Evidence on adverse psychosocial effects and effects of suboptimal compliance with amblyopia treatments is limited.
We excluded nonEnglish-language studies, could not evaluate for publication bias because of the small numbers of trials, included studies of screening in community-based settings, and did not construct outcomes tables.
Direct evidence on effectiveness of preschool vision screening for improving visual acuity or other clinical outcomes remains limited and does not adequately address whether screening is more effective than no screening. In terms of indirect evidence, a number of screening tests appear to have utility for identification of preschool-aged children with vision problems, and treatments for amblyopia or unilateral refractive error (with or without amblyopia) are associated with mild improvements in visual acuity compared with no treatment. Additional studies are needed to better understand effects of screening compared with no screening, to clarify the risk for potential unintended harms from screening (such as use of unnecessary treatments), and to define the optimal time at which to initiate screening during the preschool years.

Sea, Sand & Sky: Out of the DOWNPOUR, into the OFFICE!!
It's Thi, back at it again, blogging it up! I was really excited for the All Access Boston Harbor trip out to George's Island, but boy, was I in for a surprise at the day at the office. The trip had to be cancelled due to the random downpours of raindrops as large as sea snails! Already at the office, I had resigned myself to the thought of staying inside, away from the great fun out on our harbour. Then, there was a quick expedition to the youth room on the other side of the office building.
The blank walls called out to us, and we knew they wanted to be covered with works from our staff, all ocean- and Boston Harbor- themed of course! Creatures of all sorts flooded my mind, blabbering about to be painted first. Sea horses, crabs, lobsters, sea stars, barnacles, whales, striped bass, herring, and seaweed were already dancing across the white canopies of streamlined sheets of paper.
My hopes were too big for me to follow up on, but most of the Junior Program Assistants (fondly referred to as JPAs) helped paint the 15 or so marine animals that we were going to cut out and tape onto the sheet. Rustic red, yippy yellow, bronzing brown, perplexing purple, bolding black, and the Big Blue were splashed across the 8 1/2" by 11" piece of paper!
The end of the day was soon and so the paintbrushes became washed, the painted masterpieces drying neatly in a pile, the very large piece of wavy wallpaper rolled up into a large scroll, and everything else put exactly how it was. We then headed back to the office, wrapping up that part of the day.
I had a blast just staying inside and just painting again, but I cannot wait for the AABH trip out tomorrow with my first trip with the little bro - Vinh!

Q: Задача. Коллекция значений свойства Что неправильно?
Задача:
Напиши функцию getAllPropValues(propName) которая принимает один параметр propName - имя (ключ) свойства.
Функция должна вернуть массив всех значений свойства с таким именем из каждого объекта в массиве products.
Если в объектах нет свойства с таким именем, функция должна вернуть пустой массив.
Моё решение:

const products = [
  {
    name: "Radar",
    price: 1300,
    quantity: 4
  },
  {
    name: "Scanner",
    price: 2700,
    quantity: 3
  },
  {
    name: "Droid",
    price: 400,
    quantity: 7
  },
  {
    name: "Grip",
    price: 1200,
    quantity: 9
  },
];

function getAllPropValues(propName) {
  const prodName = [];
  const prodQuantity = [];
  const prodPrice = [];
  const prodCategory = [];

  for (const product of products) {
    prodName.push(product.name);
    prodQuantity.push(product.quantity);
    prodQuantity.push(product.price);
    prodQuantity.push(product.category);
  }

  return prodName;
  return prodQuantity;
  return prodPrice;
  return prodCategory;
}

A: У вас функция неправильно написана.
Во первых вы обновляете только prodName и prodQuantity
  for (const product of products) {
    prodName.push(product.name);
    prodQuantity.push(product.quantity);
    prodQuantity.push(product.price);
    prodQuantity.push(product.category);
  }

Во вторых, когда функция натыкается на return, она завершает своё выполнение. Всё что ниже return-a не имеет смысла.
Вот исправленный вариант вашей функции:

const products = [
  {
    name: "Radar",
    price: 1300,
    quantity: 4
  },
  {
    name: "Scanner",
    price: 2700,
    quantity: 3
  },
  {
    name: "Droid",
    price: 400,
    quantity: 7
  },
  {
    name: "Grip",
    price: 1200,
    quantity: 9
  },
];

function getAllPropValues(propName) {
  const prodName = [];
  const prodQuantity = [];
  const prodPrice = [];
  const prodCategory = [];

  for (const product of products) {
    prodName.push(product.name);
    prodQuantity.push(product.quantity);
    prodPrice.push(product.price);
    prodCategory.push(product.category);
  }

  switch(propName) {
    case 'name':
      return prodName;
    case 'quantity':
      return prodQuantity;
    case 'price':
      return prodPrice;
    case 'category':
      return prodCategory;
  }
}

const prices = getAllPropValues('price')
console.log(prices)

UPD
Либо вот, немножко изменённая версия функции:

const products = [
  {
    name: "Radar",
    price: 1300,
    quantity: 4
  },
  {
    name: "Scanner",
    price: 2700,
    quantity: 3
  },
  {
    name: "Droid",
    price: 400,
    quantity: 7
  },
  {
    name: "Grip",
    price: 1200,
    quantity: 9
  },
];

function getAllPropValues(propName) {
  const availableProps = ['name', 'price', 'quantity']

  if (availableProps.includes(propName)) {
    return products.map((item) => item[propName])
  }
}

const prices = getAllPropValues('price')
console.log(prices)


Thanks to all the folks who called me to say there was a nice picture of my daughter and I in the paper. We were out trying to get her to ride without training wheels, and that picture was taken right before I let go and she rode fine on her own and we celebrated. Thankfully the Bulletin photographer didn't take a picture of her riding into the dirt, nearly hitting a concrete post (stopping is always the tricky part -- we'll work on that next time).
Anybody know anybody at the Bulletin that can get me a good digital version of that photo or one of the other photos the photog took for our scrapbook? I know I can buy reprints, but I'd rather have a digital version.
I also apologize for exposing everybody to my ghostly-white legs.

Four (R)-ω-transaminases originating from Hyphomonas neptunium (HN-ωTA), Aspergillus terreus (AT-ωTA) and Arthrobacter sp. (ArR-ωTA), as well as an evolved transaminase (ArRmut11-ωTA) were successfully employed for the amination of prochiral ketones leading to optically pure (R)-amines. The first three transaminases displayed perfect stereoselectivity for the amination of all substrates tested (ee >99%). Furthermore, the transaminase AT-ωTA led in most cases to better conversion than ArR-ωTA and HN-ωTA using D-alanine as amine donor. α-Tetralone, which was the only substrate not accepted by HN-ωTA, ArR-ωTA, and AT-ωTA, was successfully transformed with perfect enantioselectivity (ee >99%) into the corresponding optically pure amine employing the variant ArRmut11-ωTA.


Just weeks after rolling out the testing phase for a Beta Version of the Singapore Fiat Exchange, Binance is on the news again having opened its first fiat-crypto exchange in Uganda this week. According to a press release by Binance Uganda, the newly launched branch is set to begin operations shortly, allowing users to make deposits and withdrawals in Uganda shillings.
Last month, Binance unveiled a fiat-to-fiat cryptocurrency exchange in Singapore under a testing phase that is based on invites alone. This happened about a month after Binance opened the Lichtenstein exchange called Binance LCX, a fiat-to-crypto trading platform.
Reports indicate that only two digital currencies – Ethereum and Bitcoin – will be traded on Uganda's Binance cryptocurrency exchange. However, the exchange has plans to add more digital currency pairs in the near future.
In March 2017, the government of Uganda went on record when it warned investors about the risks associated with cryptocurrencies. Even so, the government has demonstrated interest in utilizing the technology that underlies cryptocurrencies, blockchain. But the interest in blockchain is not reserved to governments only.
Across the globe, blockchain technology has captured the attention of businesses across sectors due to its cost effectiveness, decentralization and transparent nature. Already, numerous startups have started developing blockchain-backed solutions. Noiz Chain is enhancing interactive marketing in the advertising space within the marketing space while LiveTradr is enabling portfolio optimization.
According to Wei Zhou, CFO of Binance, the opening of a fiat-to-crypto exchange in the East African country will play a key role in maintaining economic stability in the African continent. Zhou noted that Binance has plans to get more innovation in this region.
While the launch of the Beta Version Fiat Exchange testing by Binance in Singapore was largely seen as a positive step, some industry players feel there are underlying issues that need to be addressed in the cryptocurrency exchange.
In Singapore, the Beta Version will allow users to trade fiat currency for digital currencies like Ethereum and Bitcoin. Once fully operationalized, the Singapore exchange could offer users the opportunity to exchange fiat-to-fiat, an aspect that will give them more flexibility and better exchange rates. Binance enables users to retain more money compared to other exchanges through its direct exchange. Its recent moves to set shop in Singapore and Uganda follows its pattern of working in countries that have more relaxed laws after China affected a countrywide ban on trading of cryptocurrencies.

NFL: The Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Minnesota Vikings 26-9
The Pittsburgh Steelers defeat the Minnesota Vikings 26-9 - (Image credit: YouTube/NFL)
Big Ben attacked the Vikings defense by using his explosive wideouts Martavis Bryant and Antonio Brown successfully.
by Dash Digital (article) and Milos Kitanovic (video)
September 18, 2017 at 4:20 AM September 18, 2017 at 4:20 AM
The Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Minnesota Vikings by a score of 26-9. The win improved Pittsburgh's record to 2-0 and the Vikings fell to 1-1. The Vikings were playing without their starting quarterback Sam Bradford as his season-opening knee injury forced him to sit out this week's game. Big Ben Rothlisberger found early success in the game by connecting with Martavis Bryant early in the game for a 51-yard touchdown pass. His other touchdown came when he threw a shuffle pass on the goal line to WR JuJu Smith-Schuster. Rothlisberger finished the game 23 of 35 for 243 yards and 2 TDs.
Chase Keenum filled in as the starter at quarterback for the injured Sam Bradford.
He finished the game completing 20 of his 37 pass attempts for 167 yards. Unfortunately for Keenum and the Vikings offense, they could not get into a good enough rhythm to put up enough points to match the high-powered offense of the Steelers. Starting running back Dalvin Cook carried the ball 12 times for a total of 64 yards. In the end, the team racked up only 237 yards of total offense to Pittsburgh's 335.
Le'Veon Bell continues to dominate with the ball
In the victory over Minnesota, Le'Veon Bell carried the ball 27 times for a total of 87 yards. His 4 receiving yards gave him 91 yards of the Steelers total offense. Although Bell did not see the end zone for the second straight week, his presence was felt by the opposing defense as usual.
Despite the differences he had the entire offseason with the team, he's shown that he will not allow his contract dispute with the franchise negatively affect his play on the field.
Antonio Brown has another solid game
Last week in the Steelers win over the Cleveland Browns, Antonio Brown opened the season with a bang by bringing in 11 catches for 182 yards.
In the victory over the Vikings, he was able to snag 5 catches for a total of 62 yards. In just two games, Brown now has a total of 16 catches for 244 yards. If he continues to play at the same level the entire season, he could very much well be on his way to his fifth straight 1,000 yard receiving season.
Up next for the Steelers
Next week, the Steelers look to improve to 3-0 when they go on the road to take on the Chicago Bears.
The Bears, however, will be looking to get their first win of the season. Chicago lost their first two games against the Atlanta Falcons and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If Pittsburgh can pull off the win, it will keep them atop of the AFC conference early in the season.
[FINAL] Steelers defeat Vikings, 26-9.
