We are thrilled at Guardian to have adopted the newly launched qualification - The Certificated Surveyor of Timber and Dampness in Buildings (CSTDB), which has been introduced by the Property Care Association (PCA) this year.
The CSRT qualification has been updated to CSTDB through an external accreditation process and this new qualification is being awarded by ABBE – the Awarding Body for the Built Environment.
The good news for our clients is that all surveyors holding this new qualification are committed to continually improving their knowledge and understanding of this industry and will be reviewed by the PCA annually.
The PCA's Certificated Surveyor of Timber and Dampness in Buildings (CSTDB) qualification will be awarded in place of the Certificated Surveyor in Remedial Treatments (CSRT) qualification, which will continue to be recognised, supported and promoted by the association.

10 years since the floods of 2007 in Gloucestershire
Following the floods of 2007 it became clear that the typical procedure for the repair of flood damaged properties was not always the most appropriate method and often resulted in householders being re-housed in temporary accommodation for unnecessarily long periods. The standard method of repair was to strip out the properties and install drying equipment, sometimes for periods in excess of six months.
This process was often carried out without the correct monitoring and sometimes resulted in permanent damage, particularly to internal timbers. Non specialist contractors were then employed to carry out remedial works, frequently using inappropriate materials, resulting in further delays and often the work has had to be repaired at a later date and at a further cost. Guardian came up with an innovative approach to this challenge [read more]

We don't have to feel unwell to want to feel better. Life is a journey of learning; learning from lots of experiences. However, sometimes we have the experience but don't fully learn from it. In the visible world, it's easy.
In the invisible world of emotions, feelings, reactions and prejudices, it's not so easy. One can get stuck with a faulty feeling or emotion, so the lesson isn't learnt, and the 'computer programme' develops a software glitch. These glitches, or patterns of imbalance, get filed away (invisibly) somewhere - but they're still real - and still there. However, all the glitches add up together to make the computer (our human bodies) work less efficiently, so let's look at why this happens, and how to unscramble it.

2/26/18 | Telling the Freedman's Story
July 26, 2017 August 29, 2018 AgendaAlexandria Alexandria's identity, Historic Alexandria
Our February program focuses on Alexandria connections to Lives Bound Together, an exhibit at Mount Vernon which began in October 2016 and will run through September 2018.
Lives Bound Together: Slavery at George Washington's Mount Vernon, helps visitors to the Virginia plantation envision the real people who toiled in Washington's home and fields. The exhibition includes household objects, art, interactive displays, and Washington's own meticulous records. "We know a tremendous amount about the daily workings of the plantation," says Associate Curator Jessie MacLeod, "down to when the enslaved people were sick, their work assignments, when they attempted to run away, and their family relationships." For MacLeod, the most gratifying part of curating her first major exhibition was her ongoing contact with the descendants of the people of Mount Vernon such as our moderator, Florence King.
This Agenda:Alexandria program is catered by special guest chef Randy Peaches, chef and founder of Do Yourself a Flava!!! Catering, LLC, serving fresh and flavorful favorites from Mississippi to Maryland.
Please Note: This program returns to our usual location at the Hermitage, 5000 Fairbanks Avenue, Alexandria VA 22311. Google map »

Q: tail -f, but only every 1000th row tail -f myfile.log

is very nice, but if you have a big file you may only want to display every nth row.
So the output will show row 1, row 1001, row 2001 and so on.
Is this possible or do the output needs to be chained into sed, awk or something else?

A: Using awk:
$ awk 'NR%1000==1'

Sample every 3rd:
$ seq 1 10 | awk 'NR%3==1'

Employees at Tokyo's Haneda Airport demonstrate Cyberdyne robot suit which helps users carry heavy loads with ease.
Visitors to Japan will now be able to see with their own eyes the country's state-of-the-art robotics technology the minute they step off the plane.
The operator of Tokyo's Haneda airport said Thursday that some of its employees will start using powered suits to carry heavy loads at passenger terminals while robot cleaners and luggage carrying machines will handle their tasks unmanned.
"While demand for airline services continues to grow especially in the greater Tokyo area, Japan is also faced with the issue of an aging society with a lower birthrate and declining labor population," robotics maker Cyberdyne Inc., which will provide the machines, said in a press release. The new project will also be an opportunity to demonstrate the country's latest technology at the "gateway to Japan," it said.
According to the company, each powered suit, called a Hybrid Assistive Limb, or HAL, can reduce the burden of carrying heavy loads by up to 40%. The machines are already in use at some companies, including Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp., where employees lift and carry heavy stacks of cash wearing the device.
The cleaning robots at the airport will be able to ride elevators on their own and work on multiple floors. A spokesman at the company said its unmanned luggage carrier can carry up to 200 kilograms.
Cyberdyne will rent three HAL machines, five cleaners and three luggage carrying machines during a test period. The two sides will increase the number of robots at the airport in about six months depending on the outcome, the spokesman said.


Reading Walter Mosley's Easy Rawlins series is one of my "comfort food" reads. And it's not even a guilty pleasure like so many of my other comfort reads, because Mosley is a damn good writer and he's got it all going on with these books! I love the characters, setting, pacing, plotting...it's all good!
It's the late 60s in LA. Hippy culture is everywhere, but the peace and love message that started in San Francisco has got mixed up with weirdos, drugs and crime down in the City of Angels. Black detective and WWII vet Rawlins is just getting over a very serious car accident that put him out of commission for two months. He comes in and out of a coma like a junkie trying to get clean. Everything's a bit hazy at best.
As a favor for a friend, he goes looking for a missing young man on the Sunset Strip and comes into contact with all manner of colorful characters. You can tell Mosley is having fun reliving his memories of LA during this period. I believe he was finishing up high school in South Central at the time all this would have taken place. Much of his past has been poured into this series.
Little Green, the 12th Rawlins book, keeps this beautiful soul train rolling down the tracks. It's so very solid, yet it's not without fault. For one, the "mystery" is solved halfway through, and yet the story keeps going. Yes, there are reasons for it, but it does give a reader a strange feeling when you're midway through and you've essentially already arrived at the end, only to be told there's a new destination and you've got to keep going. But it's a minor quibble, because having to read more of this glorious writing is no chore!


The security deposit ($500) and the application/placement fee ($200) need to be paid to secure the room. The total rent payment is due on the semester start date (1 September or 1 January). After the new linen set, move-out cleaning service and the furniture depreciation deduction of $100, the maximum deposit amount to be returned will be: $400.

Today, women are constantly told that aren't good enough unless they subscribe to a number of standards. However, strong women pay no mind to such. They know who they are, what they stand for, and are not about to bend to society's standards. They love themselves, and have discovered their strengths and weaknesses. They have also learnt to trust their judgement on issues.
Strong women know what they deserve and know not to settle for less than they deserve. They know that settling for less is a waste of time, so they have learnt to save themselves the time and headache.
They are constantly avoiding comparing themselves with others. They do not look for permission or validation from other people as they realize that they have to take responsibility for their actions. They also do not blame other people for their mistakes.
This self respect comes from knowing your worth. Most women who are strong have not always been that way, however, certain situations have forced them to attain a certain level of strength. In difficult situations, most women realize they have no where else to turn to, and so they turn to themselves. This in itself makes them develop inner strength.
One attribute of strong women is that they have each other's backs. They understand the importance of building strong support systems among themselves, and so, most times, they are always a phone call away.

TVMR
Project Title: National Helpline for Rare Diseases (Telefono Verde Malattie Rare – TVMR)
Duration of the project: From 2008 – ongoing
Main Topic:
The Italian National Helpline for Rare Diseases (Telefono Verde Malattie Rare, TVMR) was created to provide content and tools to promote the knowledge, the best practices and the empowerment processes concerning rare diseases, through a personalized specialist support. TVMR represents an institutional source of centralised information at national and international level.
The helpline (phone 800.89.69.49 – Monday to Friday: from 9:00 am – 1:00 pm) offers a free public service throughout the national territory – from fixed and from mobile phones. Citizens and Resident Aliens Abroad can use the e-mail address tvmr@iss.it.
Deaf people can access the counselling service through a dedicated e-mail address: tvmlis@iss.it
– provide accurate and up-to-date information;
– guide citizens and professionals within the national network of rare diseases, promote access to health and social services favouring the knowledge;
– support processes of procedures of simplification in the social filed;
– improve the knowledge on rare diseases, strengthen the public recognition and social value;
– develop and improve the methodologies for the international sharing of rare disease information (to regional and local level, but also between institutions and organizations of patients);
– support primary and secondary prevention interventions aimed at the general population for the promotion of knowledge and awareness on specific issues (eg prevention of some congenital malformations and NBS);
– support the National Health Service and the Ministry of Health. Flexible to the emergent needs connected somehow to the rare diseases (RD) field, TVMR connects with the main reference bodies inside and outside the ISS to meet the demands of citizens (eg. Stamina method, teratogenic effects of Zika virus etc)
Method & activities:
The TVMR team operates according to the principles and techniques of telephone counseling. This technique – while responding to people's information needs – aims at stimulate the recognition and use of the individual's resources through the creation of a space for listening and reflecting.
To achieve the goals, TVMR team carry out multiple activities, some of which are related to the helpline service, different other not strictly related but originated from it.
Patient empowerment: Is promoted a number of activities aimed at provide not just theoretical ideas but also practical support for the needs expressed by patient organizations. Among the training initiatives, the most significant are:
– "Open day on rare Diseases". The objective of these regular meetings is to provide opportunities for discussions and dialogue on emerging issues relating to rare diseases. Each "Open day" promotes always different topics, initiatives and / or insights, such as registers of disease, school and work inclusion, the needs of family caregivers and siblings, patient's rights etc.
– Planning and implementation of training courses "with and for" patient associations aimed at patients, professionals and other multiple stakeholders at national and international level.
Information and awareness initiatives: The main tool is helpline, but this area includes also: a) organization of public events (eg talk shows, concerts and conferences); b) lectures, oral and poster reports at conferences and workshops; c) elaboration of articles, reports and informative material (eg "Protection and legal rights for disabled people. From constitutional rights to further legal claims"; d) update of the associations' database on the CNMR website; e) narrative medicine initiatives; f) primary and secondary prevention campaigns; g) management of TVMR social network pages (twitter and facebook).
Collaborations and networks in support of the citizen:
At national level, the Italian National helpline has promoted an initiative to strengthen collaboration between institutional telephone services, optimize the flow of information and improve support for people with rare diseases, their families and the professionals involved. The Italian Network of Listening & Information Centers on Rare Diseases (R.I.C.A.Ma.Re), coordinated by TVMR.
At international level, TVMR is a member of the European Network of Rare Diseases Helplines (ENRDHl), promoted by EURORDIS – European organization for rare diseases, to improve and guarantee the quality of services offered to citizens, share experiences and information among the helplines around the Europe and promoting shared tools.
Institutional activities: The researchers of TVMR a) contribute to elaboration of the contents about rare diseases on the ISSalute website; b) elaborate opinions, parliamentary questions and question time; c) provide scientific and technical support to the activities of the Ministry of Health.
Research: The TVMR team collaborates on projects and studies: a) to measure the Quality of Life of patients and their carers, b) to learn about the information needs of citizens (patients and caregivers) and health professionals.
European projects. At European level, the team participates in some important projects such as EUROPLAN (www.europlanproject.eu), for the development of national plans for rare diseases and the Joint Action "Rare Disease Action. Data and Policies for Rare Diseases ", "European Joint Programme on Rare Diseases" etc.
Expected results:
The impact on the NHS and on citizens' quality of life are several, as the data collected from TVMR offer a snapshot of the information needs of citizens, providing demographic, clinical, and social information of people with RD, useful to optimize the health and welfare strategy on central and local level.
The main expected outcomes of the project are expected to:
– improve the quality of information provided to citizens, guaranteeing uniform responses throughout the national territory;
– help to reduction of inequalities in access to health care, medical treatment and social services, promoting an integrated care system in order to enable better coordinated and more continuous care;
– reduce the stress of the individual and the costs of the NHS (less unnecessary healthcare mobility, targeted and correct services, etc.), promoting a more active and informed participation of patients in diagnostic and therapeutic choices;
– expand the functionality of the helpline by exploiting its full potential. For example, obtaining the recognition of institutional helpline also for other realities close to the relevant area (for example, the National Rare Tumor Network, etc.).

Bronze medalist from 2017 Sabrina Jaquet fought to find herself on court in the first round of women's singles in Huelva.
On the first day of the 2018 European Championships, Jaquet from Switzerland turned her insecurity into power on court against Natalia Permoniva from Russia.
- I know that right now I don't really have the balance on court and in the last few matches with lack of competition, I was not feeling really well, she told Badminton Europe after the match.
Jaquet lost her focus and the second game; 18-21. When you lose your focus and start playing impatiently, it is impossible to win against a player like Natalia Perminova according to Jaquet.
- In the third it was close until 11-10, and then I think that the difference at the end was that I was a bit more solid. I took the patience and she was trying to smash a little bit too much and I just fought with everything I had and it was the difference today, I think.
- But it was good today. I was fighting a lot, I was on a streak again and that is what I need actually to come back stronger and stronger. And I am really enjoying to play and I am happy that I won today.
- I have played her many times. It is always a great fight and I'm looking forward to it. She is a different type of player, she is really good technically, but I will prepare the best that I can and try my best tomorrow.
The medal from Kolding in 2017 means a lot for Jaquet but she is trying not to think too much about her expectations. She knows that her situation is completely different from last year due to her injury.

In many applications, it's possible to take measurements repeatedly to use for inference. Examples include genetic experiments, environmental sensing, and crowdsourced image tasks. The problem of how to design sequential measurements for machine learning inference is called active learning. We can and should exploit expert knowledge about the signal of interest. However, if we trust a model too much, we may miss a true signal. We have studied active learning algorithms for image clustering/classification and spatial environmental sampling.

Thoughts on "The Testament of Mary" / Wish List entry #3
In addition to finishing The Good House this week, my copy of Colm Tóibín's audiobook of The Testament of Mary arrived at the library. It's not particularly long, just about three hours, so I finished it in a day. Meryl of course is fantastic in her reading. Her voice is so soothing, and her interpretation of the title character makes for a compelling listen. For those unaware of what this book is about, it's a look at Mary the mother of Jesus in her old age and the aftermath of her son's death. She does not believe he was the son of God and recalls/retells several events leading up to his last days which contrast with history's traditional views of Christ.
Before I listened to this book, from what I understood I thought it would be difficult to adapt it into a film version. It had a brief run as as stage play on Broadway earlier this year starring Fiona Shaw in a one-woman show, so the idea of it as a performed work is obviously not out of the question. After having finished listening to it, I'm convinced that not only it could work as a film adaptation, but that it would be amazing to see this story brought to the screen.
The most enticing prospect of seeing this on film would be the aforementioned contrasted depiction of what Tóibín provides as a fictionalized look at a woman and the traditionally-held Christian view of her as the mother of God. Obviously such a contrast would provoke some strong opinions on the subject, particularly in the United States, but that makes it so much more interesting. It wouldn't have to be a political statement, instead a reimagined look at woman whom we may think we know well, but in truth know very little about. I remember thinking while listening to the book that in reality it's a more likely and believable historical interpretation of Christ's life than what we can read in the Bible.
Were such a production to come to fruition, like Doubt and August: Osage County the setting could be opened up considerably from the stage version. I imagine it could be filmed in or around the Middle East, with Meryl styled to look like an Israelite Jew from the first century, which would be quite a departure from any other character representation I can recall seeing from her in the past onscreen.
I don't know exactly what ultimately made Meryl decide to become involved with the audio version of this novel, but obviously the story connected with her in some way. She has narrated numerous other works over the years, but this is the first that could arguably be made into a film where Meryl could star as the main character. The only other would be the first book she narrated this year, Norah Ephron's Heartburn. And well, we know that book's film history. Consider this another kick in the pants to the universe to make this happen.

I am determined to see Meryl fulfil her EGOT potential. I hope the Grammy comes for a good audiobook or soundtrack for a musical... :)

This audio narration could be a great chance of Meryl getting a Grammy. I'd still prefer to see it as a motion picture though.

Have you been looking for more reasons to enjoy red wine?
There's good news, because it really does provide you with a host of health benefits. Just remember to limit yourself to no more than five glasses of week (and certainly no more than two glasses a day).
Just look at the following incredible health benefits of red wine.
Red wine contains a variety of active compounds that contain properties to protect your heart health, including quercetin, polyphenols, and resveratrol. There have been numerous studies looking at how moderate enjoyment of red wine can be beneficial to various aspects which relate to heart disease.
According to the Mayo Clinic, resveratrol can prevent blood clots from forming, raise healthy levels of cholesterol, and help prevent the damage that bad cholesterol causes arteries.
A study from Copenhagen's Royal Veterinary and Agriculture University found that the level of wine consumption was directly related to the level of good cholesterol, with participants seeing an improvement of 5% after enjoying red wine in moderation.
Additionally, Australia's Curtin University completed a study that discovered that regularly drinking red wine could reduce the level of bad cholesterol, specifically in postmenopausal women.
Free radicals build up in your system and cause a variety of diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular problems, arthritis, neurodegenerative diseases, and more.
Red wine contains antioxidants that counteract the stress that is caused by free radicals. These antioxidants bolster your immune system, and reduce the risk of a variety of serious health problems.
Red wine can reduce the speed with which glucose passes into the bloodstream through the small intestine. This helps with the prevention of blood sugar spikes that type 2 diabetes causes.
When consumed in moderation, red wine can form part of a diet plan for those with type 2 diabetes. The reason that red wine is so much more effective than white wine is because red wine contains over ten times the number of polyphenols.
The grapes that are used in red wine contain piceatannol, and this is similar in structure to the compound resveratrol. However, what piceatannol does is block immature fat cells from growing. Where it is present, it prevents cell development from progressing.
It's so effective at this because it can destroy these fat cells early on in the process, thus preventing the accumulation of fat cells and gains in body mass. How? By binding to the insulin receptors that are located in the fat cells, and then blocking insulin from controlling the cycle of those cells.
Additionally, it blocks the activity of insulin to activate fat formation genes.
There has been more research completed on red wine as an effective preventative measure for Alzheimer's.
It is resveratrol that is highlighted as the key compound in red wine that can prevent or slow down the progression of dementia. This is because of its ability to reduce inflammation, and serve as a protectant to neurons.

OTTAWA — There was an opportunity here of a different kind, but in the second game of this series just as the Rangers had in the last one, when a chance to take a two-nil series lead slipped away with 17.3 seconds remaining and was completely lost in overtime. They went on to recover.
This? This opportunity wasted is more gut-wrenching and creates a more daunting task for the Rangers, who blew a two-goal lead late in the third period and fell in double overtime, 6-5, to fall behind, 2-0, in their second-round tilt against the Senators.
Jean-Gabriel Pageau might be the cause of nightmares this weekend, four goals scored for Ottawa, two within a span of 2:17 including a tying goal 1:02 left in regulation with an extra attacker on, getting space in front of the Rangers' net on both occasions for deflections, and the double-overtime winner 2:54 in.
"Can't really say much about it now. It's over. Obviously that one hurts a lot," Dan Girardi said.
Sometimes the bounces of a puck can change the entire game, but the Rangers have to find a way to close that one out, have to find a way to make a two-goal lead with less than four minutes to play stand up. Because now it's the difference of going home with the series tied and being in a position where they have to win four out of the next possible five games.
It was a more human afternoon for Henrik Lundqvist, who was beaten near side on Pageau's tying goal in the first period after Girardi flung the puck to nobody in the neutral zone. The winner came off a two-on-one rush after Nick Holden jumped up to the half wall to try to keep the puck in the offensive zone but failed.
"I wasn't good enough," Lundqvist said. "Coming up with the extra save there in the end, that's my job. Even though it's tough plays on deflections, I've got to find a way."
And this all came after the Rangers did do plenty of good things, dominating the second period after Alain Vigneault mixed up his lines and responding to Ottawa counter punches earlier in the third period.
"We played well enough to win this game, there's no question about it," said Lundqvist, who was tagged for as many goals Saturday as he allowed in the previous four games combined. "It's really tough to lose this one. Clearly they've gotten the bounces here in the first two games. We've just got to go home and regroup."
The Rangers looked vastly improved on the penalty kill and got two goals off of it from Michael Grabner and Derek Stepan, both off odd-man rushes. They got Chris Kreider's first goal of the playoffs and two goals from rookie Brady Skjei, whose goals both put the Rangers back up by two shortly after Ottawa scored in the second and then early in the third.
Hats littered the ice after Pageau's third goal, the Rangers looking stunned. They had chances in the first overtime period, Rick Nash stuffed by Kyle Turris' stick blade after Nash stole the puck from Craig Anderson, who made 43 saves, and tried a wraparound.
"At this point the guys in this room have to communicate this thing out," Stepan said. "We have to make our adjustments. I felt like we gave them a lot tonight and I think that's something we can really adjust, not give them as many opportunities."
The team boarded a plane back to New York with a menacing challenge in front of it. They have Sunday to process it and Monday to practice before hosting Game 3 on Tuesday.
"It's gonna be tough tonight and tomorrow, and then you move on," Lundqvist said. "There's no other way."

In 1963 Philip Bate generously gave to the University of Oxford his extensive and systematic collection of European orchestral woodwind instruments. Subsequently he continued to augment the Collection with gifts and loans, both of woodwind and brass. As a result of his original conditional of gift, that students should be able to play these historic instruments, the Bate Collection is unique in that many of its instruments are used. Philip Bate's friend and colleague Reginald Morley-Pegge both gave and also permitted instruments to be bought from his collection. After his death in 1972, his extensive library (which is especially important for its French material and for its unrivalled collection of early instrumental tutors) and all his remaining instruments were given by his son William Morley-Pegge as a memorial.
It takes time for any such collection to be accepted by a University. For seven years the initial Honorary Curator was Dr Horace Fitzpatrick, to whose unstinting efforts the eventual acceptance by the University is in great part due. Dr Fitzpatrick maintained his interest and, to take just one example, it is thanks to his initiative that the Collection acquired on indefinite loan the six surviving instruments portrayed in the well-known painting by Zoffany of The Sharp Family, a reproduction of which hangs in the gallery.
There are a number of other long or indefinite loans to the Collection, pre-eminent among which is the Anthony Baines Collection. Dr Baines was appointed the first full-time Curator in 1970.
There is significant group of historical and modern keyboard instruments, including harpsichords, spinets, virginals, early pianos and an important collection of clavichords. A number of these are from the Roger Warner Collection. A significant gift, by the Austin & Hope Pilkington Trust, was of a number of instruments from the Michael Thomas Collection.
There have been many gifts of individual or groups of instruments: for example, Michael Morrow's renaissance basset recorder with the !! !! mark, which was presented by the National Art. This organisation has also given us a rare Grenser bassoon and contributed towards the cost of the wonderful oboe by Hendrik Richters. When William Retford the famous bow-maker died in 1970, his colleagues Mr. Porter and Mr. Yeoman, arranged that all his tools and other material should come as a gift in his memory. In addition, they and Arthur Bultitude established the nucleus of the Retford Memorial Collection of Bows. More recent gifts include, from Dr. George Gordon, the first clavichord by Arnold Dolmetsch.
Since its origins in the 1960's there have been many further acquisitions. With the help of the National Heritage Memorial Fund, we acquired the Edgar Hunt Accession, consisting of over sixty instruments, including the world-famous Bressan treble recorder which is the basis of many modern copies; and a number of additional instruments which Mr. Hunt has given, and continues to give, to the Collection. Another major gift was the Javanese Gamelan Kyai Madu Laras (Venerable Sweet Harmony), a complete slendro and pelog gamelan, which was presented by the Minister of Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia, H.E. Sudjarwo in 1985, and which is played regularly.

Q: Program that counts numbers in the way humans do In class we were given a project to make a program that counts numbers in a natural way the humans do and so if a user puts in 2 inputs, our program counts the numbers in between the way humans are supposed to count (add 1 to the last digit, if the last digit is 9, adding 1 turns it to 0 and adds 1 to the digit before that) and returns a string with the input, output, and all numbers in between.
He gave us some code in class and now going over it I'm not sure what the parameters of his method mean at all so I don't understand where he's going with this:
static String nextNum(String base, String n) {
    int i=n.length()-1;
    char digit = n.charAt(i);
    int pos = base.indexOf(digit);
    n=n.substring(0,i-1) + base.charAt(pos+1); //next symbol in the base

    return n;
}

What are the two String parameters supposed to be? He also had a for loop on the board:
for (int i = n.length()-1; i>=0; i--) {
    char digit = n.charAt(i);
    int pos=base.indexOf(digit);

    if(pos==base.length()-1) { //case2 - for switching 9 to 0
        n=n.substring(0,i-1) + base.charAt(0)+n.substring(i+1);
    } else { //case1
        n=n.substring(0,i-1)+base.charAt(pos+1)+n.substring(i+1);
    }
}

Again, I'm not sure what base and n are supposed to be so it's hard for me to see what he's doing. I'm not asking for anyone to write the project for me, I would just really appreciate someone clearing this up for me and giving me tips on how to use this code to get the program he wants.

A: Base is the character set for your numbers. For example, for base 10, the way people normally count, the string would be "0123456789". For base 2 (binary), the string would be "01".
The string n is the number that you need to increment. For example, say we use base 10 (String is "0123456789") and the number we want to increment is 19. In this case, the string n would be "19".
Now, let's see what happens in the loop.
for (int i = n.length()-1; i>=0; i--)

Here, we start with i = 2 - 1 = 1.
So
char digit = n.charAt(i);
int pos=base.indexof(digit);

digit will be '9' (the second character), and pos would be the position of that character in base, so 9.
The condition if(pos==base.length()-1) will be fulfilled, and '9' will be replaced with '0'.
In the second iteration, the condition would not be fulfilled, and the digit '1' will be incremented to '2', and the result would '20' as needed.
However, for the string n of value "11", the output will be "22". Fix the code.

A: The following code block will show you how to add 2 numbers, that are presented as strings. This is intended to help you understand how to get the nextNumber [getting the next number is the same as adding 1]. I haven't considered the negative number case here. And since I worked with base 10, the all / and % are with 10's. Hopefully, this will help you understand. Let me know if you want some clarifications.
String top = "34521";
String bottom = "123";

int topPtr = top.length() - 1;
int bottomPtr = bottom.length() - 1;
int carry = 0, curSum = 0;
StringBuilder sum = new StringBuilder();
while (topPtr != -1 && bottomPtr != -1) {
    int topVal = top.charAt(topPtr) - '0';
    int bottomVal = bottom.charAt(bottomPtr) - '0';
    curSum = topVal + bottomVal + carry;
    carry = curSum / 10;
    sum.append(curSum % 10);
    topPtr--;
    bottomPtr--;
}
while (topPtr != -1) {
    int topVal = top.charAt(topPtr) - '0';
    curSum = topVal + carry;
    carry = curSum / 10;
    sum.append(curSum % 10);
    topPtr--;
}

while (bottomPtr != -1) {
    int bottomVal = bottom.charAt(bottomPtr) - '0';
    curSum = bottomVal + carry;
    carry = curSum / 10;
    sum.append(curSum % 10);
    bottomPtr--;
}
System.out.println(sum.reverse().toString());

A: nextNum seems to be nearly complete already, only the overflow case is not covered. Basically you'll "just" need to add an else branch for the case where you run out of digits in the current position.
base Would typically be 0123456789.
/**
 * Compute the successor of the parameter n, which is required to be
 * a String of digits from from the parameter base, representing a
 * number.
 */
static String nextNum(String base, String n) {
  int i = n.length() - 1;         // Index of the last digit in n
  char digit = n.charAt(i);       // The last digit
  int pos = base.indexOf(digit);  // Position of the last digit in base
  if (pos + 1 < base.length) {    // Is there a "next" digit available in base?
     // Replace the last digit accordingly
     n = n.substring(0, i) + base.charAt(pos + 1);
  } else if (i > 0) {
     // Regular overflow case:
     //   Increase the preceding digit(s) and
     //   reset the last digit to 0
     n = nextNum(base, n.substring(0, i)) + base.charAt(0);
  } else {
     // We need to add a digit
     n = "" + base.charAt(1) + base.charAt(0);
  }
  return n;
}


But there are far more common examples too, many of which slip into our consciousness without much thought as to why it's happening. How often do we hear the phrase "My daughter got all A's on her assignments, how did yours do?" Followed by an awkward reply of "Well, mine got B's, but I'll get her to resit them all". And it seems to start pretty early on too, with new parents becoming involved in how quickly their toddlers are meeting their milestones, how their 4 year old is 'top of his nursery class because he got the most gold stars' and is 'so gifted with a violin we're already applying for the top music schools in the country' plus 'look how tall he is, he's bound to be the tallest in his year'.
This is usually then followed by a disguised interest in how other children compare, and whether they're anywhere close to 'beating' their offspring in the race to become the 'best combination of human genes ever'.
It's exhausting, and sometimes we don't realise how much we engage in it.
I believe that underneath these endless comparisons, are a group of children who, instead of flourishing organically into the people they are supposed to be, are potentially being built-up into confused young adults who may not know the difference between their own wants and needs and the expectations woven into their minds from others.
If this is the case, then for me, mothering isn't about creating my own version of perfection, but knowing that in life, 'winning' really doesn't mean as much as we may think it does. By building enough esteem in our children to feel secure with sometimes making mistakes, or it not being the end of the world if they achieve less in academics or sport than others, it sets them up for a more balanced outlook, with an ability to explore the areas they do feel interested in without fear of failure or letting someone down.
And if they do thrive in certain areas, whether it be academia, art, or an ability to think outside the box, then gentle and nurturing encouragement could be all that they need to achieve their maximum potential without the burden of comparison. The confidence this builds allows for them to try new things and meet new people without feeling superior or inferior – both of which have the potential to be damaging to not only their own esteem, but to the esteem of others.
And while it may be tempting to show off their talents in national competitions, we can sometimes become so engrossed in our own child's awesomeness that we lose sight of how unimportant it is that their picture of a lion wins a prize and how important it actually is that they are pleased with their work, and did the best they could.
I remember being just 5 years old, in reception class, and using at least 25 different coloured crayons to colour in a picture of a carousel. It was, admittedly, a bit of a jumble, with nothing remaining inside the lines. The teacher held it up in front of the class, and said it was disgraceful. She made me start again, and said to copy the girl next to me who had used matching colours and drawn nice and neatly. I think the reason I have such a vivid, early memory is because it made me feel pretty dreadful, that copying someone 'better' was the only way to meet the teacher's expectations.
Mindful parenting can simply allow us to take a step back and gather some perspective, and what I can confidently promise my son is that one day when he comes home with a picture he has drawn, whether he has produced a picturesque blend of perfect colouring, or approached it like a drunk Picasso, it'll be displayed proudly on my fridge, because as long as he's pleased with it, then I'm pleased for him.

Аминосахара́ — производные углеводов, образованные замещением одной или нескольких гидроксильных групп на аминогруппу.

В случае непосредственного присоединения аминогруппы к гликозидному атому углерода такие соединения называются гликозиламинами или N-гликозидами.

Свойства

Кристаллические вещества, хорошо растворимы в воде. Проявляют свойства, характерные для аминов и моносахаридов. Являются сильными основаниями, образуют устойчивые соли. Аминогруппа способна легко ацетилироваться и алкилироваться. Под действием щелочей и азотной кислоты происходит дезаминирование.

Представители

Важнейшими представителями аминосахаров являются глюкозамин, или хитозамин (2-дезокси-2-амино-D-глюкоза) и галактозамин, или хондрозамин (2-дезокси-2-амино-D-галактоза). Они входят в состав различных гетерополисахаридов, играющих важную физиологическую роль в организме животных и человека.

Одним из гетерополисахаридов глюкозамина является гепарин, препятствующий свёртыванию крови. Его молекула состоит из остатков глюкуроновой кислоты и α-D-глюкозамина в форме двойного производного серной кислоты. Гиалуроновая кислота, важнейшее вещество соединительной ткани, содержит в составе N-ацетил-β-D-глюкозамин и β-D-глюкуроновую кислоту в соотношении 1:1, распадаясь при гидролизе на глюкозамин, глюкуроновую и уксусную кислоты. В её углеводной цепи аминосахар соединён с кислотой β-1,4-связью, а кислота с аминосахаром — β-1,3-гликозидной связью. Из остатков N-ацетил-β-D-глюкозамина, соединённых β-1,4-гликозидными связями, построен гомополисахарид хитин, входящий в состав покровных тканей членистоногих и клеточных оболочек грибов. Мураминовая кислота (3-0-α-карбоксиэтил-D-глюкозамин) является сложным эфиром глюкозамина и молочной кислоты и наряду с N-ацетилмураминовой кислотой входит в состав оболочек некоторых бактерий.

К гетерополисахаридам — производным галактозамина относятся хондроитинсульфаты А, В и С, состоящие из глюкуроновой кислоты и N-ацетилгалактозаминсульфата, остатки которых соединены β-1,3 и β-1,4-гликозидными связями. Хондроитинсульфаты А и С различаются положением сульфатных групп, а в молекуле хондроитинсульфата В D-глюкуроновая кислота замещена на изомерную α-идуроновую кислоту.

Нейраминовая кислота, или нонулозаминовая кислота, образуется из аминосахара маннозамина путём его конденсации с пировиноградной кислотой. Очень реакционноспособна благодаря большому количеству функциональных групп, поэтому её содержание в организме в свободном виде невелико. Входит в состав гликопротеидов крови, гликолипидов мозга, других веществ соединительной ткани. Её N-ацетильные производные носят название сиаловых кислот и содержатся в секрете слюнных желёз, слизях, в мембранах митохондрий, где принимают участие в процессах мембранной проницаемости.

Аминосахара и их метилпроизводные являются составной частью молекул ряда антибиотиков: D-гулозамин (2-амино-2-дезокси-D-гулоза) — стрептомицина, дезозамин (3-диметиламино-3,4,6-тридезокси-D-глюкоза) — эритромицина, микаминоза (3-диметиламино-3,6-дидезокси-D-глюкоза — карбомицина и т. д.). Из гликолипидов микроорганизмов выделен N-ацетилфукозамин.

Lucy is very happy to be home with her big brother Jake. She is lucky to be here. Lucy was newly diagnosed as being diabetic at our regular vet and was in rough shape. We were shocked, upset, and scared. Your facility gave Lucy outstanding medical care and also understands the emotional aspect of leaving an important member of your family behind as you walk out the door. When you call for an update, those calls are met with a welcome response, not a feeling of imposition or that you are bothering someone who has something more important to do. The staff takes time to tell you the little things your pet does that means so much to you. I can't say enough good things about this facility. Each staff member I met was very personable, professional, and friendly. I highly recommend their services both for the medical care and their caring and compassionate staff. Lucy is home and doing extremely well! Our regular vet was also highly impressed.


some kind of sea anemone or something…how do you get such beautiful, close-up shot with your camera? are you using that point-and-shoot snappy camera you have, or a different one?
Holly, its a Pentax Optio point and shoot. The one I just slip in my pocket.
I'll stop leaving such obvious hints, Chris!

Denver Broncos coach Vic Fangio fired after three seasons
Michael Middlehurst-Schwartz
The Denver Broncos fired coach Vic Fangio on Sunday after three seasons, embracing a change in leadership as the organization looks to end the NFL's second-longest active playoff drought.
Fangio finishes his Broncos tenure with a 19-30 record and having never compiled a winning season.
After a 5-11 campaign in 2020, Denver started 3-0, marking the first time in his career as a head coach that Fangio had won a game in September. The Broncos lost their next four games but rebounded to claim three of their next four and re-enter the playoff mix. But Denver would end its season on a four-game skid and was officially eliminated from postseason contention in Week 17.
"This morning, (general manager George Paton) and I informed Vic of the decision to part ways with him as head coach of the Denver Broncos," Broncos president and CEO Joe Ellis said in a statement. "For the last three seasons, Vic put his heart and soul into coaching the Broncos. I want to thank Coach Fangio for giving his maximum effort to our organization since the day he was hired.
"George will have full authority to select the next head coach of the Broncos. This is his decision and his program. I have complete confidence in George's ability to lead an exhaustive and successful head coaching search. We will give George every available resource and fully support him in hiring the very best head coach to lead the Broncos."
At six seasons, the Broncos' active playoff drought trails only that of the New York Jets. Denver is the first franchise to miss the postseason for six consecutive years after a Super Bowl win.
Following a 28-24 season-ending loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday that dropped the Broncos' record to 7-10, Fangio acknowledged his future was uncertain.

"You saw it out there tonight – a bunch of fighters and competitors," Fangio said. "Proud to be associated with them. Not proud of our record. I know it's not good enough. I get it. But I'm proud to be associated with our players."
A longtime NFL assistant and defensive coordinator, Fangio became a head coach for the first time in his career when the Broncos hired him at 60 in 2019. While this year's defense ranked among the league's best even after the midseason trade of eight-time Pro Bowl pass rusher Von Miller, the offense floundered throughout his run while the franchise continued to rotate through quarterbacks. Seven different players served as starters during the coach's tenure.
Fangio on Saturday cited the ongoing quest to find an answer behind center as one of the primary reasons for the team finishing last in the AFC West for the second consecutive year.
"Those other three teams have top-shelf quarterbacks. ... We just have to get a little bit better," Fangio said.

Vintage brooches and jewellery can be taken apart and re_designed and worked into a unique hair flower design to match your theme and outfit. Look for small vintage Marcasite clip earrings as these can add depth to the design and surround these with silk or lace and you have a unique yet very cost effective bridal hair flower. Wax flowers are going to be making a statement in 2013 we think. Vintage wax flowers are not always easy to come by but can be a really quirky alternative to your usual bridal headdress ideas.
Professional florists would categorise the styles of flower arrangements as such: Traditional, oriental and modern flower arrangements. Traditional flower design, also known as Western flower arrangements, is the time_honoured common flower arranging style where the design is enriched with a large number of beautiful, colourful flowers. Apart from the vase in which the flowers are arranged, almost no other accessories are used in this flower style.


Sandeep Singh Vs. Union of India and Ors.
2. The surviving grievance is only with regard to the immunity from prosecution under Section 245H (1A) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (for short, 'the said Act'), which reads as follows: "245H (1A) An immunity granted to a person under sub-section (1) shall stand withdrawn if such person fails to pay any sum specified in the order of settlement passed under sub-section (4) of Section 245D within the time specified in such order or within such further time as may be allowed by the Settlement Commission, or fails to comply with any other condition subject to which the immunity was granted and thereupon the provisions of this Act shall apply as if such immunity had not been granted."
3. In case the payments are not made within the time granted by the Settlement Commissioner or in case the person fails to comply with any other conditions, subject to which the immunity was granted, the immunity shall stand withdrawn. In the case of the appellant it is not in dispute that the payments have not been made within the time originally granted by the Settlement Commissioner. But at the same time, it is not in dispute that all payments have been made before the appellant approached this Court and filed this appeal by way of special leave petition on 20.01.2016, though the time originally granted by the Settlement Commissioner was only up to 31.07.2015.
4. However, we find from the provision that the Settlement Commissioner is free to grant further time for payment, under Section 245H(1A) of the said Act.
5. Having heard the learned senior counsel for the appellant and learned Additional Solicitor General appearing for the respondents, we are of the view that in the facts and circumstances of this case, it is not necessary to relegate the appellant to the Settlement Commissioner for enlargement of time, since the payments have already been made.
6. Therefore, for all intents and purposes it shall be taken that the appellant has made the payments within the time granted under Section 245H(1A) of the said Act.
7. The appeal is allowed, as above.
