Elias Fries, Femsjö's most famous son
Among all the people who ever lived in Femsjö, one person became world famous: Elias Fries. From humble beginnings as the clergyman's son in Femsjö, this man made very significant contributions to the world of botanical science. During the 19th century he was active in Swedish cultural and political life at national level.
But in spite of his career he remained a modest man, conversing in his local Femsjö accent while at the same time he had no difficulty in communicating with the educated elite in Latin or reading the Greek philosopher's work in classic Greek. Here, readers have a chance to get acquainted with episodes of the life of this remarkable man.

Q: How to convert a json file into a list The content of my json file is:
{'user': 'fgb59h', 'stars': 4.0, 'time': 1027296000}

{'user': 'bucho_ky', 'stars': 2.0, 'time': 1201305600}

{'user': 'redp944', 'stars': 4.0, 'time': 1118016000}

And I want to convert it like this:
[
{"user": "fgb59h", "stars": 4.0, "time": 1027296000}

{"user": "bucho_ky", "stars": 2.0, "time": 1201305600}

{"user": "redp944", "stars": 4.0, "time": 1118016000}
]

I converted the single quotes to double quotes like this:
with open('ep.json', 'r') as myfile:
    data=myfile.read()
obj = json.dumps(data)
json_ep = obj.replace("'", "\"")

But now i need the json file to be included in a list. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks in advance!!

A: You won't be able to load this file out of the box with json. You'll have to replace all single qutores first and then load the data with json.loads. However, you can also use ast in order to read the single-quoted json as follows:
import ast
from io import StringIO

data = """
{'user': 'fgb59h', 'stars': 4.0, 'time': 1027296000}

{'user': 'bucho_ky', 'stars': 2.0, 'time': 1201305600}

{'user': 'redp944', 'stars': 4.0, 'time': 1118016000}
"""

records = list()
for line in StringIO(data).readlines():
    if not len(line.strip()): continue
    data_dict = ast.literal_eval(line)
    records.append(data_dict)

print(records)

Which outputs:
[{'stars': 4.0, 'time': 1027296000, 'user': 'fgb59h'},
 {'stars': 2.0, 'time': 1201305600, 'user': 'bucho_ky'},
 {'stars': 4.0, 'time': 1118016000, 'user': 'redp944'}]

A: You could read each line, append to a list which later can be manipulated using ast:
commitJson.json:
{'user': 'fgb59h', 'stars': 4.0, 'time': 1027296000}
{'user': 'bucho_ky', 'stars': 2.0, 'time': 1201305600}
{'user': 'redp944', 'stars': 4.0, 'time': 1118016000}

Hence:
import json
import ast
res = []
with open('commitJson.json', 'r') as fp:
    for line in fp:
        res.append(line.strip())

print(json.dumps([ast.literal_eval(i) for i in res], indent = 4))

OUTPUT:
[
    {
        "user": "fgb59h",
        "stars": 4.0,
        "time": 1027296000
    },
    {
        "user": "bucho_ky",
        "stars": 2.0,
        "time": 1201305600
    },
    {
        "user": "redp944",
        "stars": 4.0,
        "time": 1118016000
    }
]

Shorter-version:
with open('commitJson.json', 'r') as fp:
     print(json.dumps([ast.literal_eval(line.strip()) for line in fp], indent = 4))

In the same way different tracks of a song can be mixed, our identity can also adjust its different elements to adapt to our three main different personas.
Oli likes listening to music and he'd like to make some of his own.
When we communicate to kids, we put all the elements to the maximum expression. We are loud, expressive and playful.
That means that our main brand element, the loop, is visible in the shape of our 3D element or even applied to crazy typeface. We use our main corporate typeface Raisonne and and also make the gradient visible in the design of the applications.
Sam would like Oli to develop his creativity and express himself through arts.
To parents we communicate in a more mature way than to kids.
We are more focused and thoughtful, but still keep the playfulness of the brand.
In terms of design, we show our loop only in the 3D object and color it in duotone. Don't apply the loop to crazy typeface when communicating to parends. We stick to our main typeface Raisonne but we remove the gradient and just go with a plain color in the background to put more focus on the information.
Kristine is a forward-thinking music teacher who believes in adopting technology to develop student's creative skills.
The design of communication elements for educators is even more toned down. It is important that we focus on the content and remove as much noise as possible in order to convey our information. However, we don't loose our brand personality in the way we talk, or by simple design elements.
In consequence we remove the loop and go with our secondary typeface Larsseit in the whole layout. This font gives more focus.
To keep the playfulness of our brand we bring back the gradients.

THE SECRET IS OUT - JOBS ABOUND IN NORTH DAKOTA
What would you call a state with nearly 30,000 job openings waiting to be filled? We call it North Dakota. We call it home, and you can, too. Regardless of the direction your career path is taking you, the destination should be North Dakota. Our economy is booming and not just in the oil and gas industry (you may have heard of the Bakken). That play did more than just create thousands of direct jobs, it also had an indirect influence on start-up companies, wages, housing starts, construction and much more. We have the nation's lowest unemployment rate, but we also have room for you.
Tech companies continue to carve out a bigger niche in the workforce. North Dakota is embracing technology like unmanned aircraft systems and investing in the industry that will bring jobs to the state.
There is a need for professionals like doctors and nurses to address the healthcare needs of a growing population. Student populations continue to grow, leading to a need for educators at all levels.
It's not a secret anymore – North Dakota means jobs.

'This trail' seemed to be pre knowledge from somewhere else. An embodied knowledge that I take with me everywhere. A prejudice if you like, of association. This didn't mesh with my current surroundings. This miscommunication in a blind language is one that is additional to the obvious one in spoken language, culture and customs. This blind language is more abstract, a miscommunication in shapes. An automatic language that is read unknowingly, in which I know how to be mobile in a place and where I can place my understanding of things. In Khartoum this reliance on an ease with the synthesis between me and the 'landscape' could not happen. My mind was decoding objects before me in Khartoum to the code of the object in my familiar surrounding back home in my personal history.

In this classic work, Alasdair MacIntyre examines the historical and conceptual roots of the idea of virtue, diagnoses the reasons for its absence in personal and public life, and offers a tentative proposal for its recovery.

Against the Dictatorship of Noise
By: Robert Cardinal Sarah, Nicolas Diat, Michael J. Miller - translator
Narrated by: Peter Lawrence
In a time when technology penetrates our lives in so many ways and materialism exerts such a powerful influence over us, Robert Cardinal Sarah presents a bold book about the strength of silence. The modern world generates so much noise, he says, that seeking moments of silence has become both harder and more necessary than ever before. Silence is the indispensable doorway to the divine, explains the cardinal in this profound conversation with Nicolas Diat, and he seeks to restore to silence its place of honor and importance.

How the Bible Actually Works
In Which I Explain How an Ancient, Ambiguous, and Diverse Book Leads Us to Wisdom Rather Than Answers - and Why That's Great News
By: Peter Enns
Narrated by: Peter Enns
How the Bible Actually Works makes clear that there is no one right way to read or listen to the Bible. Moving us beyond the damaging idea that "being right" is the most important measure of faith, Enns' freeing approach to Bible study helps us to instead focus on pursuing enlightenment and building our relationship with God - which is exactly what the Bible was designed to do.

By: Michael F. Bird
Narrated by: Michael F. Bird
Evangelical Theology: Audio Lectures, a companion to the textbook Evangelical Theology, presents systematic theology from the unique perspective of a biblical scholar.

Was the Reformation a Mistake?
Why Catholic Doctrine Is Not Unbiblical
By: Kevin J. Vanhoozer - contributor, Matthew Levering
Narrated by: Sean Runnette
Was the Reformation a mistake? In its actual historical context, it hardly seems fair to call the Reformation a "mistake". In 1517, the Church was in need of a spiritual and theological reform. The issues raised by Renaissance humanism - and by the profound corruption of the Church's leaders, the Avignon papacy, and the Great Schism in the 14th and 15th centuries - lingered unresolved. What were key theological problems that led to the Reformation?

Unveiling the Mother of the Messiah
By: Brant James Pitre
Narrated by: Mark Deakins
In Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary, Dr. Pitre takes listeners step-by-step from the Garden of Eden to the Book of Revelation to reveal how deeply biblical Catholic beliefs about Mary really are.

The Way of Chuang Tzu (Second Edition)
By: Thomas Merton
Narrated by: Greg Chun
Working from existing translations, Thomas Merton composed a series of his own versions of the classic sayings of Chuang Tzu, the most spiritual of Chinese philosophers. Chuang Tzu, who wrote in the fourth and third centuries BC, is the chief authentic historical spokesperson for Taoism and its founder, Lao Tzu (a legendary character known largely through Chuang Tzu's writings).
The Doors of the Sea: Where Was God in the Tsunami?
By: David Bentley Hart
Narrated by: Edoardo Camponeschi
As news reports of the horrific December 2004 tsunami in Asia reached the rest of the world, commentators were quick to seize upon the disaster as proof of either God's power or God's nonexistence, asking over and over, How could a good and loving God - if such exists - allow such suffering? In The Doors of the Sea, David Bentley Hart speaks at once to those skeptical of Christian faith and to those who use their Christian faith to rationalize senseless human suffering.
The best Christian answer to the problem of evil
By: N. T. Wright
Narrated by: James Langton
In this definitive biography, renowned Bible scholar, Anglican bishop, and best-selling author N. T. Wright offers a radical look at the apostle Paul, illuminating the humanity and remarkable achievements of this intellectual who invented Christian theology - transforming a faith and changing the world. For centuries, Paul, the apostle who "saw the light on the Road to Damascus" and made a miraculous conversion from zealous Pharisee persecutor to devoted follower of Christ, has been one of the church's most widely cited saints.
Different type of writing for Wright is helpful

Eternity Is Now in Session
A Radical Rediscovery of What Jesus Really Taught About Salvation, Eternity, and Getting to the Good Place
By: John Ortberg
Narrated by: Dean Gallagher
Best-selling author John Ortberg dispels the myth that eternal life is something way out in outer space that we can only hope to experience after we die - and that being saved is merely about meeting the minimal entrance requirements for getting into heaven. Instead, John unpacks the reality that the moment we trust Christ, we are initiated into "eternal living" with God as a here and now reality, one that will continue beyond our life on this earth.

Desiring the Kingdom
Worship, Worldview, and Cultural Formation
By: James K. A. Smith
Narrated by: John Pruden
Malls, stadiums, and universities are actually liturgical structures that influence and shape our thoughts and affections. Humans - as Augustine noted - are "desiring agents", full of longings and passions; in brief, we are what we love. James K. A. Smith focuses on the themes of liturgy and desire in Desiring the Kingdom, the first book in a three-volume set on the theology of culture. He redirects our yearnings to focus on the greatest good: God.
Wish it was Smith reading this. But still good.
The interpretation of scripture has depended largely on the view of history held by theologians and exegetes. In Participatory Biblical Exegesis, Matthew Levering examines the changing views of history that distinguish patristic and medieval biblical exegesis from modern historical-critical exegesis.
Levering argues for a delicate interpretive balance in which history is understood both as a process that participates in God's creative and redemptive presence and as a set of linear moments. He identifies a split between theological and historical interpretations of scripture beginning in the High Middle Ages, considerably earlier than the emergence of historical-critical methods in the 17th and 18th centuries. Instead, he offers a vision of scripture that is rooted in the exegetical practice of St. Thomas Aquinas and his sources but embraces historical-critical research as well.
Participatory Biblical Exegesis provides an original theological basis for critical exegesis. It integrates the work of contemporary exegetes, philosophers, theologians, and historians to provide a compelling vision of biblical interpretation.
The book is published by University of Notre Dame Press.
©2008 University of Notre Dame (P)2017 Redwood Audiobooks
"Interest in the patristic and medieval traditions of biblical interpretation has been growing in the last decade, in both Protestant and Catholic circles. Levering's book is a sophisticated and detailed contribution to the approach." ( Theological Studies)
"Stands out from the ever-growing mass of books on bibliography by offering a cogent pathology of contemporary biblical exegesis, which manages to free itself from the quagmire of hermeneutical theory." ( European Journal of Theology)
"An excellent example of [Levering's] wide-ranging interests and ability to synthesize exegetical, historical, philosophical, and systematic theological discussions." ( Pro Ecclesia)

Shandong Gold Group является государственной Китайской золотодобывающей компанией при правительстве провинции Шаньдуна. Компания является вторым по величине производителем золота в Китае по выпуску продукции, а её публично представленная дочерняя компания занимает 1898 место в Forbes Global 2000.

Корпоративные дела
Shandong Gold Group является материнской компанией Shandong Gold Mining, которая котируется на Шанхайской фондовой бирже. Следуя пакту, объявленному в сентябре 2018 года с Barrick Gold, крупнейшим в мире по объёму продукции золотодобытчиком, обе компании договорились укреплять связи друг с другом путем кросс-инвестирования до $ 300 миллионов в акции друг друга, и Barrick Gold покупает акции Shandong Gold через Шанхайскую фондовую биржу.
Кросс-инвестиционное соглашение последовало за покупкой Shandong Gold 50 % доли шахты Веладеро в Аргентине, принадлежащей Barrick Gold, в апреле 2017 года.

Будучи государственным предприятием провинции Шаньдун, компания непосредственно контролируется комиссией по надзору и управлению активами государственного управления провинции Шаньдун.

Компания является членом Всемирного Золотого Совета, торгового органа, который продвигает золотодобычу и обнародует социальные и экологические стандарты для добычи золота.

Деятельность

Внутренняя добыча золота
Основная деятельность по разведке и добыче золота в стране осуществляется внутри страны. На золотодобычу из 12 местных шахт в Шаньдуне, [Внутренняя Монголия], Гансу и Фуцзянь приходится 6,6 % национального производства.
Гигантское открытие было объявлено в сентябре 2018 года, когда компания нашла месторождение с по меньшей мере 382 тоннами золота на сумму около 22 миллиардов долларов в районе Лайчжоу — Чжаоюуань полуострова Шаньдун.

Международная добыча золота
В апреле 2017 года Shandong Gold приобрела 50 % долю в шахте Veladero в Аргентине, принадлежащей Barrick Gold за 960 млн долл. США, а также сформировала партнерство для изучения совместной разработки месторождения Паскуа-Лама.

Бизнес, не связанный с золотом
В компании есть несколько предприятий, не связанных с золотом, включая цветной металл, туризм и недвижимость. Она имеет дочерние компании по финансовым услугам в Китае и Гонконге (SD Gold Financial Holdings Group и SDG Asset Management (HK) Limited).

A toll-house at Lepton
This house, called Bar Cottage, stands on Rowley Lane in Lepton, just east of Huddersfield. It is readily recognisable as a toll-house: it stands further out into the road than neighbouring buildings, and it has windows enabling traffic approaching from both directions to be seen.
Though not on any main road now Rowley Lane was once part of the Wakefield-Austerlands Turnpike. This road was constructed around 1759 from Wakefield through Huddersfield to the county boundary at Austerlands (on the present A62) where it connected with the turnpike from Manchester through Oldham. While the three routes over Standedge are well-documented, it is less widely-known that the first of the three Austerlands turnpikes did not follow the present direct route down from Grange Moor. It actually turned down through Lepton, over the Fenay Beck and up to Almondbury, from where it descended into Huddersfield.
The route was changed with the second turnpike of 1777, but the toll-house, deprived of its purpose, has survived externally unaltered for over 200 years.

Yesterday was my Mother's birthday. I had taken her and my dad to dig for diamonds at the Crater of Diamonds National Park in Murfreesboro, Arkansas. It's the 8th largest diamond mine in the world. It is also the only place in the world where the public can hunt for diamonds and keep what they find.
The weather wasn't too hot but imagine being out in a treeless field, digging in the dirt, the sun bearing down on you. It tends to get hot real quick. No matter, I thought, this was the first time for me to do this and I was going to find me a nice shiny rock. Well, there were a lot of shiny rocks. In fact the dirt even sparkled. Rocks had specks of sparkles.
I hadn't a clue what to look for. Of course I knew what a diamond looked like, though only in a store window case, after it's been cleaned and cut and polished. I was digging for the uncut, dirty ones.
He and I filled up two buckets of dirt and rented a screen. We walked to the screening area and began screening the rocks and dirt for hopeful, potential diamonds. We picked out clear pieces of white rocks, what we thought were diamonds. We continued to screen and screen until our buckets of dirt were empty.
After two hours we packed up our things and walked up front to show our findings to an 'expert'. Our clear 'diamond hopefuls' were nothing but quartz crystals and one piece of glass. So all that trouble to find no diamonds. We found a lot of jasper and some other minerals I had forgotten what the names were already. I did have fun though. And I got the experience for diamond hunting.

Fourth World Review: a Transition Journal
John Papworth's journal Fourth World Review (4WR) has recently undergone a shift in emphasis, and finds itself under new management and dedicating its focus to Transition. It has become, in effect, the Transition Journal, offering weightier articles than you might find, for example, here at Transition Culture (ie. no articles about UFOs or handbags), creating a very welcome addition to the world of Transition-related publishing. 4WR is under the very capable editorship of Jon Hughes. The most recent edition contains excellent articles, by luminaries such as Kirkpatrick Sale, Peter North and others. It is essential reading, and will be published every 2 months.
4WR is available at a considerable discount for local Transition initiatives. This offers the opportunity both to keep people up to speed with latest thinking, as well as for your group to make some money selling it at events. For a minimum six editions a year, you can order five copies of each edition for £30 per year, or 10 copies for £50. You can contact Jon at hughes.jon (at) btinternet.com for more information. Also, if you have ideas for articles or contents do let him know. Jon is offering a free 'taster' copy of the latest edition to anyone who contacts him, so do get in touch, you can't say any fairer than that.
Fourth World Review have created an excellent resource here, its long term success will depend on our support, so take it to your heart and make it your own! Like many such publications, people taking out subscriptions is vital to their long term thriving, so you could do a lot worse than to subscribe to 4WR, the 2 editions I have seen so far were thought-provoking and fascinating, and I was still carrying it around days later dipping into it, which is always a good sign.

4WR arrived yesterday and I dived in hoping for a repeat of the excitement that came with the Transition Handbook. No such luck. Transition could use a journal that conducts the kind of intellectual exploration and analysis that is really only possible in print and this may be the acorn. I hope it is, I'm going to subscribe and support its development but it has a long way to go if it is to become a positive, inspirational, fun source of transition knowledge and discourse. It also needs to better reflect the values and concepts that underpin Transition – tacking "and the Transition Movement" at the end of its declaration is not enough.

Руске револуције 1917. довеле су до колапса Руске империје, краткотрајне привремене владе и стварања прве социјалистичке државе на свету под бољшевицима. Они су се експлицитно обавезали да ће промовисати равноправност мушкараца и жена. Многе ране руске феминисткиње и обичне руске раднице активно су учествовале у револуцији, и све су биле погођене догађајима тог периода и новом политиком Совјетског Савеза.

Привремена влада која је преузела власт након збацивања цара у фебруару 1917. промовисала је либерализам и учинила Русију првом великом земљом која је женама дала право гласа. Чим су бољшевици преузели власт у октобру 1917. године, либерализовали су законе о разводу и абортусу, декриминализовали хомосексуалност и прогласили нови виши статус за жене. Инеса Арманд (1874-1920), Александра Колонтај (1872-1952), Надежда Крупска (1869-1939) и Александра Артјухина (1889-1969) биле су истакнуте бољшевике. Изван бољшевика, Марија Спиридонова се појавила као један од главних лидера левих есера и сељачког покрета уопште: председавала је Ванредним сверуским конгресом совјета сељачких депутата крајем новембра 1917, а касније је била именована за шефа Сељачке секције Централног извршног комитета Сверуског совјета радничких, сељачких и војничких депутата (ВТСИК) до јула 1918. године.

Руске жене и Први светски рат
Млади руски феминистички покрет био је одушевљен устанком 1905. године, који је био праћен либерализацијом неких строгих ограничења за жене и стварањем националног парламента. Међутим, до 1908. године, снаге реакције су се снажно повлачиле, а феминисткиње су се повлачиле. Женама је забрањен приступ универзитетима, а међу либералним снагама владао је општи осећај очаја.

Избијање рата у августу 1914. било је изненађење; Царство је било лоше припремљено. Пошто су милиони мушкараца ужурбано обучавали мушкарце, жене су преузимале нове улоге. Број радница у индустријским центрима порастао је на преко милион пошто се 250.000 жена придружило радној снази између 1914. и 1917. године. Сељанке су такође преузеле нове улоге, преузимајући део пољопривредних послова својих мужева. Жене су се директно бориле у рату у малом броју на линијама фронта, често прерушене у мушкарце, а хиљаде других су служиле као медицинске сестре. Друштвени услови жена током Првог светског рата утицали су на улогу коју су играле у надолазећим револуцијама.

Фебруарска револуција и њен утицај на бољшевичку партију

Фебруарска револуција је збацила царски режим и успоставила привремену владу. Неколико жена је било веома видљиво у овој револуцији, посебно оних које су се окупиле у масовним протестима на Међународни дан жена да позивају на политичка права. Они су стекли права под привременом владом, укључујући право гласа, да служе као адвокати, и једнака права у државној служби. Жене које се залажу за оваква политичка права углавном су долазиле из вишег и средњег слоја, док су сиромашније жене протестовале за "хлеба и мира". Рекордан број жена придружио се руској војсци. Постављене су све женске борбене јединице, прва од њих формирана је у мају 1917.

Женска питања и бољшевичка политика
Женско питање, и идеја да су жене затворене у приватним строгим друштвеним правилима и улогама, била је популарна тема међу руским интелектуалцима током касног 19. и почетка 20. века. За разлику од Запада, међутим, руске расправе о правима и улози жена нису биле део основне борбе за људска права. Барбара Енгел је истражила начине на које је револуција била родно заснована. Слабост култа домаћинства у царској ери олакшала је увођење иновативне бољшевичке политике. С друге стране, радничка класа је била родно мушка, што је ометало иновације. Заиста, након 1905. радикални елементи су све више концептуализирали жене као затворене из јавне сфере, у којима су само мушкарци били легитимни учесници. Револуционари морају дати предност мушкарцима и често исмејаним домаћицама и сељанкама.  као последица тога, реформатори и револуционари су генерално гледали на жене као на назадне и сујеверне, и да им се не верује политички. Неки марксисти називали су раднице "најзаосталијим слојем пролетаријата" и оптуживали их да нису у стању да развију револуционарну свест без партијског вођства. Многи су писали и теоретизирали о овом питању, али многи Руси су то питање повезивали углавном са феминисткињама. Пре револуције, феминизам је осуђиван као "буржоаски" јер је имао тенденцију да долази из виших класа, и сматран је контрареволуционарним због перцепције да би поделио радничку класу. Енгелсов рад на Женском питању из 1890. утицао је на Лењина. Он је сматрао да је угњетавање жена функција њиховог искључења из сфере јавне производње и потискивања у сферу домаћинства . Да би се жене сматрале правим другарицама, буржоаска породица је морала бити разбијена, а женама је била потребна пуна аутономија и приступ запослењу. У светлу учешћа жена у Фебруарској револуцији, Бољшевичка партија је почела да преиспитује и реструктурира свој приступ "женском питању". Стаљин је преокренуо многе бољшевичке ратне иновације, а такође је успоставио систем који је за неке жене био оснажујући.

Бољшевици су се противили било каквој подели радничке класе, укључујући одвајање мушкараца и жена како би се ставили у фокус посебно женска питања. Сматрали су да мушкарци и жене морају да раде заједно без подела, и због тога, у првим данима партије, није штампана литература која би била усмерена на жене, а бољшевици су одбили да створе биро за раднице. Године 1917. пристали су на захтеве руског феминистичког покрета и основали Женски биро.

Октобарска револуција и грађански рат

Почевши од октобра 1918. године, Совјетски Савез је либерализовао законе о разводима и абортусу, декриминализовао хомосексуалност, дозволио кохабитацију и започео низ реформи које су теоретски учиниле жене равноправнијим са мушкарцима. Нови систем је произвео многе прекинуте бракове, као и безброј деце рођене ван брака. Епидемија развода и ванбрачних веза створила је друштвене потешкоће када су совјетски лидери желели да људи концентришу своје напоре на раст економије. дали су велики приоритет премештању жена у градску индустријску радну снагу. Дошло је до наглог пада наталитета, што је Кремљ схватио као претњу совјетској војној моћи. До 1936. Јосиф Стаљин је поништио већину либералних закона, уводећи конзервативну, пронаталитетну еру која је трајала деценијама које долазе.

Бољшевици су дошли на власт са идејом ослобођења жене и трансформације породице. Они су успели да изједначе правни статус жена са мушким реформисањем одређених закона, као што је Закон о браку, породици и старатељству који је ратификован октобра 1918. који омогућава оба супружника да задрже право на сопствену имовину и зараду, дају деци рођену ван земље. закључили су иста права као и они који су рођени у браку и омогућили развод на захтев.  Бољшевици су покренули покрет за самоактивност жена; Женотдел, познат и као женски одсек Комунистичке партије (1919–1930). Под вођством Александре Колонтај, и уз подршку жена попут Инесе Арманд и Надежде Крупске, Женотдел је ширио вести о револуцији, спроводио њене законе, оснивао часове политичког образовања и описмењавања за радничке и сељанке и борио се против проституције.

Док су мушкарци били присилно регрутовани за службу у грађанском рату када су вишеструки непријатељи покушали да збаце бољшевике, жене нису биле обавезне да учествују. Ипак, у великом броју јесу, сугеришући да су бољшевици добили подршку жена. Око 50.000 до 70.000 жена придружило се Црвеној армији до 1920. године, што је чинило 2% укупних оружаних снага.

За то време бољшевички феминизам је заиста почео да се формира. Лењин је често говорио о важности ослобађања жена од кућних послова како би могле потпуније да учествују у друштву, и почео је напор да се радницима плате за кућне послове. Званично је легализован принцип "Једнака плата за једнак рад". Примењене су неке промене у традиционалном нагласку на породици, укључујући омогућавање лаког остваривања развода и давање пуна права ванбрачној деци.

Један бивши револуционар, Фани Каплан, покушала је да убије Владимира Лењина 1918. године, али је ухапшена и погубљена. Лењин се никада није у потпуности опоравио.

Инеса Арманд
Инеса Арманд (1874—1920) је била активна револуционарка која је била веома блиска Лењину; добила је главне улоге након што је он преузео власт. Постала је шеф Московског економског савета и била је извршни члан Московског совјета. Постала је директорка Женотдела, организације која се борила за равноправност жена у Комунистичкој партији и совјетским синдикатима (Женотдел је деловао до 1930), са овлашћењима да доноси законодавне одлуке. Прошла је кроз реформе како би омогућила женска права на развод, абортус, учешће у владиним пословима и стварање објеката као што су масовне кантине и центри за мајке. Године 1918, уз помоћ Свердлова против опозиције Зиновјева и Радека, успела је да се одржи национални конгрес радничких жена, са Лењином као говорником. Према Елвуду, разлог зашто је партијско руководство пристало да подржи Армандову агитацију за комуналне објекте је тај што је грађански рат захтевао ангажовање жена у фабричким пословима и помоћним пословима у Црвеној армији, што је створило потребу да се жене ослободе традиционалних дужности. Арманд је такође председавао Првом међународном конференцијом жена комуниста 1920. У пролеће 1920. године појавио се, опет на Армандову иницијативу, часопис , који се бавио "ширим аспектима женске еманципације и потребом да се промени однос између полова да би се остварила трајна промена".

Сељанке и еманципација жена
Сељанке углавном нису биле укључене ни у "буржоаски" феминистички покрет, ни у бољшевичку револуцију. Патријархалне родне улоге биле су начин живота на селу, а село је био једини живот који су сељанке познавале. Историчари су изнели теорију да су сељаци револуцију видели као опасну претњу њиховом начину живота, а да су се сељанке, већ осиромашене, плашиле сметњи које је донео рат. Само мала мањина сељанки придружила се бољшевичкој ствари. Одбијање сељанкиње еманципације жена најјасније се показује у њиховом одбијању да се укључе у Женски биро.

<title>Adding HTML pages</title>
<meta name="order" content="5" />

Adding HTML pages to your Ensembl website

The main htdocs/info directory contains all the technical documentation
needed for an Ensembl mirror. However you may want to add your own pages,
such as contact information for your project or general documentation
that applies to all species.

Navigation

In order to avoid spending time maintaining navigation of static
pages, the Ensembl code includes automated navigation. This is implemented
as follows:

At server startup, the module EnsEMBL::Web::ConfigPacker parses the
entire document tree for htdocs/info/ in all plugins, to produce a
combined tree for the whole site

This tree is then used to generate site navigation:

A "site map" page is created from the top two levels of the tree

On each static page, a "breadcrumb trail" is constructed from the
relevant path through the tree

In order to take advantage of this functionality, you simply need to make
sure that you place your documentation in the htdocs/info directory of your
plugin, and follow these simple rules when formatting your HTML files:

Use the file extension .html - other file types are ignored

Follow our HTML best practices - HTML Quick Reference

Omit templating and navigation - that is all handled by the web code

Include a <title> tag

On index pages, if the title is longer than a couple of words, consider using
a "navigation" meta tag (see below)

Sample file:

<html>
<head>
<title>About This Project</title>
</head>

<body>
<h1>About This Project</h1>

[Your content here]

</body>
</html>

Note that if you add or remove a static page,
or change anything within the <head> tag, you need to delete
/conf/packed/web_tree.packed and restart the server.

Omitting content from the navigation

There may be instances where you do not wish to have ConfigPacker parse sections of the tree.
For example, we do not include the contents of 'Doxygen' in the Ensembl documentation tree as it
contains many hundreds of files and has its own navigation menu.

To omit part or all of a directory from the tree, use the "index" meta tag as follows:

To omit an entire directory, put the "index" meta tag in the index.html file header
and set its value to "NO INDEX"

To include the index file but not other HTML files or subdirectories, put the "index"
meta tag in the index.html file and set its value to "NO FOLLOW"

To omit an individual HTML file, put the "index" meta tag in its header and
set the value to "NO INDEX"

Sample file:

<html>
<head>
<title>PDoc Documentation</title>
<meta name="index" content="NO FOLLOW" />
</head>

<body>
<h1>Ensembl PDoc Documentation</h1>

Have you ever been in a place where you don't feel like you have a plan for what's next?
I've been pondering this state of "no set plan" for a couple of months now. In my last blog post, I spoke about how strange it felt to not have a set direction after spending the entire year of 2018 thinking I knew exactly where I was headed and working towards that end.
The only thing that has really changed since that post is my mindset. I am now more willing to be alright with where I am.
Even though that might be great advice in some cases, I've come to understand something about "hustling" which is: When the hustle stems from passion, it's fruitful. When it stems from fear or urgency to change for the sake of change, it's not. You need a solid direction when you are hustling and it is OK to stand in place for a season and take in where you are without the compulsion to be moving and achieving.
But when I moved here it was 1000% where my path was leading. How did I know? Nothing could keep me from it.
That feeling of surety felt like excitement and absolute confidence. At the time I didn't know how all of the specifics would play out but I felt certain that they would fall into place. I didn't have a job I was transferring to, I didn't have an apartment or house rented, but the overwhelming feeling of rightness eclipsed all of that. I felt like I could work out those details as things unfolded.
Although those times of surety and big change are wonderful and satisfying, what do you do during the long stretches in between where you feel like you're just plodding along? I think we put way too much pressure on ourselves to be constantly achieving. I've also noticed that we're often so close to our everyday lives that we don't have the perspective to notice the subtle ways in which things are changing.
When I took mental stock at the end of 2018, my initial thought was "not much happened." But when I reflected more fully, it became clear that there were a TON of new experiences, new creative ventures and new relationships that had evolved progressively throughout the year. Since they happened a little bit at a time it was easy to overlook them and feel like I was exactly where I'd been twelve months prior, but that wasn't the case at all. I've found it's helpful to remember this during times when it feels like nothing's happening.

So this is really more like a personal diary entry which I guess used to be the purpose for blogs? They seem to have evolved into something much more than that but I feel I need to just speak my mind without a big catchy title or theme for this one.
This past year of 2018 I found myself working on a lot of new projects. I created an online songwriting course and a number of promotional teaching tools around that. I did a weekly songwriting tips series on YouTube for almost 2 months which was a ton of fun.
As soon as that series ended I took a short trip to Orlando to stay with family. During that trip, I was thinking a lot about 'what's next.' The question was intended as a what's next in all areas of life but, as is the case for me most of the time, the question tended towards work. So I was brainstorming about what I wanted to do next with my songwriting teaching material and came up with a whole new YouTube series that I was really excited about for a couple of weeks.
I returned to Iowa with new plans, wrote a long script for a new YouTube video and then... things changed.
Not all at once, they must have changed quietly in the background when I wasn't looking, but I suddenly found myself no longer interested in what I'd been working on for the past year. I know that could still shift and I could dive into creating songwriting content once again but right now that's definitely not the case.
I had a small revelation a couple of weeks ago which was "what if I just be for a while?" I've found some freedom in NOT asking myself every day "what's next?" "what are you doing with your life?" "where are you going?" Or more bluntly "Dude you're nearly 30, shouldn't you be further along?" I was in the habit of asking those questions so often and coming up with no concrete answers. I have a tendency to think of the future a lot of the time and sometimes that's helpful, but more often than not it can become quite restrictive and burdensome.
So for right now, my plan is to have no plan. I'm having fun performing, tightening up the last few tracks for the new album and generally just taking things as they come. I'm looking forward to spending some time with family over Christmas and welcoming the new year with open arms.
If any of this sounds like you (overthinking, generally judgmental thoughts about your place in the world) then I invite you to join me on this path of no path. Just for a little while. It's amazing how freeing it feels. We can be those weirdos that AREN'T posting the #hustle #workharder posts.
I wish you all a magnificent Holiday season - talk soon.

Over my time spent as a songwriter, I've thought a lot about how other people write. Do they wait until they're inspired? Or do they treat it like a 9 to 5 job, hammering out song after song hoping for a gem along the way? I've also thought about what they write. Pop songs, ballads, two-parters, songs with bridges, songs with five verses (ahem - James Taylor). I've even spent some time thinking about where and when others write. Home studio? Out in nature? On the subway ride? 3 am in the morning? In the evenings after a long day at work? But one thing I've never really considered is why do people write songs? I know for me it's a variety of different reasons but let's analyze a few motivating factors to find out why people write.

CONGRESS SAYS NO ROTHIFICATION … FOR NOW
When someone keeps telling you not to worry about them doing a certain thing, you know they are thinking about doing that very thing.
That's what Congress is doing with so called "Rothification."
As a review, "Rothification" – as it has become known – is a way to raise revenue for the government by, in effect, taxing 401(k) contributions. Rothification would eliminate the tax deductions for 401(k) and other plan contributions and replace them with Roth 401(k)-type plans where there is no deduction, but the earnings will grow tax-free forever.
Rothification was seriously considered during the last year's tax reform negotiations. Due to the uproar over losing deductions (a big tax increase for 401(k) contributors), the provision was dropped from the final bill, and it never got into the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted last December.
But now, Congress is looking at round 2 of tax reform, and Rothification has come up again. However, according to an interview with Tax Analysts yesterday, Chairman Kevin Brady, (R-Texas), said that "the Ways and Means Committee has no plans to revisit the issue of so-called Rothification as part of any 2.0 proposals, and any rumors to the contrary are simply not correct."
Personally, I like the idea of saving in a Roth for the long-term tax-free benefits in retirement, especially for younger workers who would fare better with Roth 401(k)s as opposed to 401(k)s.
But I suppose a switch of this magnitude was too much of a shock to the system for those counting on the tax deductions, even though all of these 401(k) accumulations, plus earnings, will be taxed later at what could be higher rates for many, leaving them less when they might need it more.
That being said, as a big Roth supporter, the number one worry among both financial advisors and consumers is that they don't trust Congress. Big surprise! They like the idea of the Roth but they think Congress will double-cross them and change the rules to find some way to tax these Roth funds. I don't think that will happen, because that would kill the Roth program. Roth 401(k)s and Roth IRAs are a cash cow for the government, and the fact that they keep bringing up ideas like Rothification to expand Roth-type retirement accounts shows that they want more Roths, not less. Since Roths have existed, Congress has been expanding access to them, because it brings in more revenue.
The biggest example was in 2010, when the $100,000 income eligibility limit for Roth conversions was eliminated, plus they gave everyone who converted an enticing 2-year deal to pay the taxes. That opened the floodgates and the cash came in – including mine! There were also the designated Roth accounts, Roth 401(k)s, which allowed increased contributions. In addition, many tax bills included enhanced Roth availability as revenue raisers.
Now Congress is talking again about not going with Rothification. That tells you they are still thinking about it, which tells me Congress wants more Roths and upfront tax money. Based on these signs, I believe the Roth IRA is here to stay, and you don't have to worry about them killing the program by taxing it.

Q: propagation of singularities and hyperbolicity I have come across the statement that propagation of singularities is a general feature of the hyperbolic equations (context: Einstein Field Equations). Even on an intuitive level, I cannot make sense out of it. To me it seems, that then any initial data we take will already contain the (Big Bang-) singularity, and therefore there is no such thing as a regular initial data.
Since Einstein Equations are hyperbolic, it means then that they will always (?!?) propagate the initial singularity? I would be grateful if anyone could explain how, in the context of general relativity, to understand the statement about the singularity propagation correctly. Thanks!

A: You're right that singularities generically persist in hyperbolic PDEs. However, we typically don't actually include the instant of the Big Bang in our calculation, since nobody seriously believes GR is the correct theory to use in this regime (we need a full quantum theory at least) so we don't worry about this point.
Instead, we imagine starting a little bit after the initial 'moment', where everything is e.g. a nice smooth FLRW spacetime. You can then follow this back to a singularity, but you don't reach it before your theory breaks down.

Companies all over the globe, from financial institutions to retail and food industries see blockchain as the digital ledger technology which promises to modernize their business processes. As a result, they are now hyper-focused on vendors offering them early jump-starts into this growing arena.
Charlotte Dunlap, Technology Analyst at leading data and analytics company GlobalData, offers her insight on why platform services providers are poised to dominate in the emerging blockchain industry: "Businesses will come to realize that blockchain is a technology play and solution providers with expertise in infrastructure and platform technologies are most likely to successfully capitalize on this new market opportunity. In particular, organizations are looking to application platforms giants such as IBM, Oracle, SAP and Microsoft, with their ability to gain traction through tens of thousands of customers in disparate industries.
"These public cloud platform providers are actively building blockchain into their respective PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) offerings, not only as an additional blockchain network service but also as a foundational platform capability; eventually these services will support and interoperate with line of business products. Further, blockchain will be a future enabler of Internet of Things (IoT) efficiency, scalability, security and cost management and a facilitator of IoT applications such as supply chain track-and-trace. Software and equipment vendors and service providers are likely enterprise suppliers.
"Initially we will see platform providers offer blockchain tools and frameworks to help application developers create smart contracts in which they can not only capture data but act on that data and attach rules to it so, for example, only appropriate parties may view documents. Consider the possibility of information on products and supply chains being able to reach customers and partners, weeks earlier than previously allowed through traditional business processes. Imagine the effect such efficiencies could have on businesses in terms of visibility, validation and ensuring accuracy.
"Blockchain is increasingly attractive for its ability to address the increasing inefficiencies and fraud associated with current methods of doing business, costing some companies millions of dollars and requiring significant numbers of IT staff simply to run those cumbersome business systems.


Lets mate, THEN I'll eat you!
Green Linx Spider, Peucetia viridans This is male and female of the same species, they were getting along well. The smaller male always acted with caution. The females are known to eat the male after mating, which did not happen. I didn't see them mating in the hour or so I spent watching them.
At first, these bugs look really gross and wicked - especially after looking at those barb-like hairs growing from their legs. Then after staring at them for a minute or two, the beauty of their colors mixed in with the blue flower and the green hues in the background makes this a wonderful picture. It's balanced very well, and the subjects are interesting. Well done.

The 45-year-old model is dating Tom Kaulitz - who, at 28, is 17 years her junior - and she admitted the only time she's ever quizzed about getting older is when people question her romance with the Tokio Hotel musician, but she isn't bothered about their opinions.
She told InStyle magazine: "I don't really think about getting older that much -- I mean, know it's happening to me, it's happening to all of us. But it's not like I wake up in the morning, look in the mirror, and say, 'Oh my God, oh my God.'
"Lately, I'm being reminded more about my age by people other than myself.
"My boyfriend is many years younger than me, and lots of people are questioning that and asking about it. That's really the only time when age seems to be shoved in my face and I have to give an answer for it.
"I don't really think about it that much otherwise. You have to just live a happy life without worrying too much about what people think because worrying is only going to give you more wrinkles."
The 'America's Got Talent' judge - who raises four children, Leni, 14, Henry, 12, Johan, 11, and eight-year-old Lou, with ex-husband Seal - has grown used to the scrutiny she comes under in the public eye and even though sometimes she's subjected to cruel comments, she's learned to see the funny side.
She said: "Sometimes they'll compare a photo of me from 10 years ago, right after I had a baby, with a photo of me right now, and say, 'Oh, she was curvier then, or her boobs were so much bigger.'
"Yeah, they were so much bigger because I was breastfeeding! And I probably really needed to pump right then. You just have to come to terms with it."

Q: Excel vba MsgBox to display message when duplicate is found I am trying to remove duplicates from a table in Excel, I have a piece of code that removes duplicates without any problem, I am wondering if I could make it prompt a message box when a duplicate is found saying something along the lines "This entry is a duplicate entry" Any suggestions? This Is what I got so far:
Sub AccessTransfer()
    Range("A1:F1").Select
    Selection.Copy
    Sheets("Sheet2").Select

    ActiveSheet.Paste
    ActiveCell.Offset(0, 6).Value = "Oven"

    Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Select
    Call GoDupe
    Sheets("Sheet1").Select

    Application.CutCopyMode = False

End Sub

Sub GoDupe()

    Cells.RemoveDuplicates Columns:=Array(1), Header:=xlNo
    Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Select
End Sub

A: Rather than looping through, identifying and prompting for each duplicate, you could simply highlight all duplicates and prompt the user once.
Your GoDupe() sub could look something like this:
Sub GoDupe()

Cells.FormatConditions.AddUniqueValues
With Cells.FormatConditions(Cells.FormatConditions.Count)
    .DupeUnique = xlDuplicate
    .Interior.Color = RGB(255, 0, 0)
End With
If MsgBox("Red highlighted cells are duplicated. OK to remove duplicates?", vbOKCancel) = vbOK Then
    Cells.RemoveDuplicates Columns:=Array(1), Header:=xlNo
    Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Select
End If
Cells.FormatConditions(Cells.FormatConditions.Count).Delete

End Sub

Probe of the Kobe Bryant Crash Will Examine If Fog Played a Role

While the investigation into the helicopter crash that killed basketball star Kobe Bryant and eight other people Sunday morning is just beginning, a likely focus of attention will be the fog that limited visibility in the Los Angeles area. En route from Orange County to Bryant's youth basketball academy in Thousand Oaks, pilot Ara Zobayan was granted clearance by air traffic control to fly despite limited visibility. After about 40 minutes in the air, the Sikorsky S-76B dropped steeply and crashed into a hillside in Calabasas, killing everyone aboard.
To use the lingo, Zobayan was operating under what the Federal Aviation Administration calls "special visual flight rules." Most of the time, helicopter pilots fly under visual flight rules, navigating and staying level by watching their surroundings. In bad weather, those with the proper certification can fly under instrument flight rules, relying on their altimeter, airspeed indicator, and other dashboard tools.

Special visual flight rules blend the two: If you're passing through an area enforcing instrument rules, but are heading for an area under visual rules, you can ask to continue flying under visual rules, so long as you stay clear of clouds. It's fairly common, but only allowed for pilots who are certified to fly under instrument rules, in helicopters with the needed instruments. Pilots sometimes use the special visual flight rules to avoid the hassle of filing detailed plans before takeoff, required on flights under instrument control.
Visibility is vital for helicopters, in part because they spend more time than fixed wing aircraft at relatively low altitudes. Pilots have access to detailed charts showing the locations of power lines, hilly terrains, and other obstacles, most of which are available on handheld tablets. But under instrument conditions, they wouldn't use those to navigate moment by moment, says Dave Whitcomb, a former commercial helicopter pilot. Instead, they'd make sure to fly well above any hazards.

Flying without sight of the ground or other landmarks can quickly become dangerous, Whitcomb says, because helicopters are not inherently stable. Just staying level and on course demands working four controls at once, using your hands and feet, and keeping track of how each input affects all the others. If you lose sight of where you are and you don't use your instruments properly, you may not realize you're turning, or dropping, or even upside down. "You'll get disoriented within seconds," Whitcomb says.
