Starting Martial Arts can be a life changer for many people.

Learning an art like Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a lifelong journey that will enrich other areas of your life.
To get the most out of your martial arts training, it is important that you find a martial arts gym with competent instructors. RockStar Martial Arts, servicing Frisco, Prosper and Little Elm, has become a known destination for top instructors and legends of the sport. To be exposed to that level of a teacher in the sport is quite rare and special. There are not too many places that can offer that.
As important as it is to have good instructors, it's equally important to find a gym that has a positive, family-friendly atmosphere. You want a well-equipped gym and instructors who don't play favorites. That is another benefit of training at RockStar Martial Arts. The culture stresses respect and the students look out for each other. Training at a gym like that allows students to grow to their full potential.

North Toronto Nitros down London Athletic to win U-18 Boys Ontario Indoor Cup
By Staff, 02/04/20, 3:10PM EST
Juan Pablo Delgadillo led the way with two goals and an assist for North Toronto
The U-18 Boys Ontario Indoor Cup finals featured the North Toronto Nitros taking on the London Athletic Canadian Futbol Club at the Ontario Soccer Centre.
Prior to the final, the U-18 Boys played a tournament round on the Saturday and semi-finals on the Sunday.
North Toronto rolled over Kleniburg Nobleton with a 5-0 win in their semi-final while London downed North York Assante Elite 3-1.
North Toronto got things going early when Allessandro Fargione had a ball played back to him on a corner kick and his shot from far out had seeing eyes as it found the back of the net to make it 1-0 in the 7th minute.
London would answer right back when Isaac Frada got on the end of a pinpoint cross which he only had to tap into the net to draw his side level in the 9th minute.
Juan Pablo Delgadillo gave North Toronto the lead once again, five minutes from halftime, when his faint sent the keeper the other way and his shot to the far post.
Both teams would trade chances in the second half but it wasn't until 10 minutes left in the second when North Toronto found another way through.
Delgadillo added his second goal of the game when he got on the end of a corner kick and his shot found the top corner to give his side a 3-1 lead.
Delgadillo would assist on their final goal of the game, a marker coming in the dying seconds. His pass to Pablo Hempelmann needed only to be tapped into the net to make it 4-1 and seal the U-18 Boys Ontario Indoor Cup title for his side.

Q: What is wrong with my transpose function? I am trying to transpose a matrix, like below. I am passing the array by reference, and somehow it is not working (AFTER is same as BEFORE). I am not sure why.
But, What I am really surprised about is that the array is not transposed even inside the transpose() function (how can INSIDE be the same as BEFORE??). What am I missing?
#include <iostream>

template <int M, int N>
void print1(int (&src)[M][N]) {
    for(int i = 0; i < M; i++) {
        for(int j = 0; j < N; j++)
            printf("%2d\t", src[i][j]);
        std::cout << std::endl;
    }
}

template <int M, int N>
void transpose(int (&src)[M][N]) {
    for(int i = 0; i < M; i++) {
        for(int j = 0; j < N; j++) {
            if (i == j) continue;
            int temp = src[i][j];
            src[i][j] = src[j][i];
            src[j][i] = temp;
        }
    }
    std::cout << "\nINSIDE:\n";
    print1(src);
}

int main() {

    int src[][4] = {
        { 1,  2,  3,  4},
        { 5,  6,  7,  8},
        { 9, 10, 11, 12},
        {13, 14, 15, 16},
    };

    std::cout << "BEFORE:\n";
    print1(src);
    transpose(src);

    std::cout << "\nAFTER:\n";
    print1(src);
}

Output:
$ ./a.out
BEFORE:
 1       2       3       4
 5       6       7       8
 9      10      11      12
13      14      15      16

INSIDE:
 1       2       3       4
 5       6       7       8
 9      10      11      12
13      14      15      16

AFTER:
 1       2       3       4
 5       6       7       8
 9      10      11      12
13      14      15      16
$

A: Are you maybe transposing it twice:
for(int i = 0; i < M; i++) {
    for(int j = 0; j < N; j++) {
        if (i == j) continue;
        int temp = src[i][j];
        src[i][j] = src[j][i];
        src[j][i] = temp;
    }
}

i.e. substitute src(i,j) for src(j,i)... and then substitute src(j,i) for src(i,j)?

A: A better optimization is
for(int i = 0; i < M; i++) {
    for(int j = 0; j < i; j++) { <----------------  Compare j with i and not with N
        // if (i == j) continue;    <----------------  No need to do this extra check
        int temp = src[i][j];
        src[i][j] = src[j][i];
        src[j][i] = temp;
    }
}

Singapore's AA REIT acquires Woolworths' Sydney HQ and data center for $336.8m
Acquires 483,400 sq ft site in Australia, makes Woolworths its largest client
Dan Swinhoe
Singaporean fund manager AIMS APAC REIT (AA REIT) has acquired Woolworths' Sydney HQ and data center.
The fund closed the acquisition this week, acquiring the campus in Northwest Business Park in New South Wales for AU$463.25 million (US$336.8m) from Inmark Asset Management Pty Ltd.
The 44,911 sqm (483,400 sq ft) site on 1 Woolworths Way, Bella Vista was put up for sale in June. The site is 100 percent leased to Woolworths for at least another 10 years.
Set on nine hectares of land, the site was constructed in 2005 and comprises three separate office buildings linked by a central atrium. The campus includes office space, an on-site Woolworths Metro supermarket, gym, café, sporting facilities, and what is described as "a significant data center."
– CBRE
Inmark bought the supermarket property for a group of South Korean investors for AU$336 million (US$258 million) from Mirvac Group in 2016. There is also around 28,000 sqm (301,000 qs ft) of commercial office floor area available to be developed.
"This Proposed Acquisition will strengthen AA REIT's foothold in Sydney's resilient business park market," said George Wang, chairman of AIMS APAC REIT Management Limited, the manager of the REIT. "This is a transformational acquisition for AA REIT, representing the largest asset in the REIT's high-quality portfolio, and wholly-leased to one of Australia's largest companies listed on Australian Securities Exchange Ltd (ASX)."
The REIT said there is "immense potential to unlock value" as the property was designed to cater for future site expansion for additional buildings. Post-acquisition, Woolworths will become the largest tenant in AA REIT's portfolio. The AU$463.25 million figure does not include AU$31 million in transaction costs.
The company said it was financing a deal through a combination of debt financing and proceeds raised from a recent securities issuance, but may pay part of it through a combination of further debt financing, acquisition fee units, issuing securities, and/or new equity.
Following the completion of the acquisition, AA REIT will have a total of 29 properties, of which 26 properties are located throughout Singapore and the rest across Australia.
In 2014 the AA REIT acquired a 49 percent stake in the Optus Centre in Sydney's Macquarie Park from Stockland for AU$184.425 million (US$215m). In 2019 telco firm Optus signed a further 12-year term for the property.
Last year Woolworths announced it was utilizing Dell for its on-premise private cloud solutions, housed across two data center facilities in Sydney and managed by Dell.
Earlier this year Colliers and CBRE were listing 2 Woolworths Way, the company's 54,000 sqm (484,400 sq ft) distribution and logistics center, for sale.

"It's not that bad." "The pain decreases with time." "Just think positively." We've all been told that at one time or another. If we're honest, sometimes it feels easier to just give up because let's face it, life is hard.
Maybe you don't have someone you feel comfortable talking about hard stuff with or you don't want to burden someone with your problems. Maybe you're a parent at a loss of how to help your teen. Maybe you're a teen at a loss of how to deal with your parents. You could be having issues with relationships, drugs, body image, or life in general.
Let's talk about why things are so hard. Why you're doing the same old thing day in and day out despite wanting to change. Why you're waking up and wishing that the pills you took the night before had actually worked. Why in spite of all the things you've done to try and recover from your eating disorder or addiction, you feel like you've made no progress. Let's get down to the root of things and face them head on.
I have experience working in higher, more intense levels of care and have helped adults and teens deal with difficult stuff. I've met people in crisis and helped walk them into a better, more stable, and positive point in life.
Therapy is uncomfortable because change is uncomfortable. You can't make change without being willing to talk about things that are hard, scary, make you angry, or even cry. You have to face your fears, talk about your struggles, and discover ways to cope with your stressors.
Your time is valuable and I wouldn't dare waste it. If you're ready to get to work, look at, and deal with those real issues, let's talk. Life is hard. You can have the final say. And I would love to help.

Can a police officer lie during an interrogation to get a confession?
Police officers often have to use a variety of techniques while questioning a suspect. Recently on our criminal forum a user asked, "If I have been arrested for a crime and I am interrogated by a police officer are they allowed to lie to me in an effort to persuade me to confess? What about hitting me or threatening to hurt me?"
Lying, Trickery, and Deceit during interrogation
It's not unusual for police officers to lie, trick or otherwise deceive suspects to produce a confession. For example, officers may tell a suspect they have evidence they committed the crime (e.g., fingerprints, DNA samples or eye witness testimony). They also may be legally allowed to state that another accomplice has already confessed.
The most famous case which established the current precedent was the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court case of Frazier v. Cupp, 394 U.S. 731, 1969. In this case the court ruled that the confession of the murder suspect which was obtained through the deception of the police was allowed because it did not "shock the conscience of the court or community."
So where do the courts draw the line?
Unfortunately, whether a form of trickery may "shock the conscience of the community" may be a bit nebulous. The U.S. Supreme Court did, however, provide several instances where trickery would not be lawful. For example, they suggested it would be unlawful if the police officer tricked the suspect into believing he was his attorney or posed as a clergyman to elicit a confession.
In more recent cases other states have also made further distinctions about lying about the investigation vs. lying about the legal issues of the court system (e.g., lesser charges or a reduced sentence). Still other states contend that an officer may lie about evidence and refer to the false evidence but may not actually manufacture evidence (i.e., create an actual video with an informant lying about witnessing a murder and showing that video to a suspect in order to elicit a confession).
Courts have also not allowed what are termed "coercive tactics" to get a confession (i.e., hitting, punching, threatening violence, torture, or drugging).
Police officers may use a variety of deceptive practices to persuade a suspect to confess. Laws regarding what a police officer may and may not do, however, can be very complicated. As mentioned above, the officers may never use violent strategies such as hitting, kicking, or torture.
Police officers should not manufacturer false evidence, but they may be allowed to verbally reference information they do not actually possess. Props may also be allowed, although using props may increase the risks the suspect calls their bluff and asks to view the evidence.

The way pressure measuring instruments will be mount on top of the process depends on the situation and type of process. All instrument valves and manifolds are designed to fulfil its unique purpose. For example, there can not be any liquids go through a with a gas filled pipeline. While on they other side liquids are a necessity on liquid filled processes. The reason for this is that there needs to be a fixed zero pressure point in the pipelines, to ensure reliable and accurate measurements. There can be numerous reasons not to install an instrument valve directly to the process, one of the reasons can be: a chemical composed process, high temperatures, or pressure fluctuations.
Manifolds ensure shutting-off impulse lines, deflating a process, and create a fixed zero pressure point. Manifolds come in many different sizes and forms, all dependable on the needs and requirements for each unique process and installation wishes.

Hawaii opens up existing solar installations to energy storage
A ruling by state regulators will allow the more than 60,000 Hawaiian homeowners and businesses that have PV systems installed under previous net metering rules to add energy storage without violating their agreement.
July 5, 2018 Christian Roselund
Image: RevoluSun
Nowhere in the United States has embraced rooftop solar like Hawaii. Very high retail electricity prices made net-metered rooftop solar a bargain in the island state well before the mainland, with the result that 16-20% of all homes on individual islands hosted PV systems by the end of 2017.
As this is a much higher rate of distributed solar than anywhere in the Continental United States, this and the island's isolated grid also meant that the state's utilities hit technical challenges associated with deploying this solar sooner.
And whether or not these technical issues were a sufficient and valid reason, state regulators shut off net metering to new customers in the territory of Hawaiian Electric Companies (HECO) in 2015, instead shifting to policies that de-facto mandated pairing solar with energy storage by forbidding electricity exports.
But while the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission (HPUC) was forcing energy storage upon new customers who sought to install solar, they had not yet made it a reasonable option for existing solar customers, as it would void their net metering agreement.
This changed last Friday, with HPUC issuing an order which approves an option for customers to add energy storage to an existing net-metered installation, without adding any more solar. This goes beyond HECO's proposal that such systems be allowed for emergency back-up, and will allow energy storage for other purposes.
A limit on exports to the original capacity of the PV system under net metering is maintained, with a 1 kW variance for advanced inverters. The rule further exempts these energy storage systems from a technical review requirement.
"The PUC has created a new market for resilient energy storage equipment," said Will Giese, the executive director of the Hawaii Solar Energy Association (HSEA) in a statment. "By allowing existing customers new options to participate in the clean economy, we're lowering the cost of energy storage and accelerating deployment of new renewable technologies."
HSEA notes that customers wishing to add solar and storage will need to re-program their existing inverters to meet frequency and voltage standards, where possible. HPUC also directed HECO to work with HSEA and other stakeholders to create an easily understood net metering modification process for customers who want to add storage.
Such changes have been a long time coming, as the ruling is under a docket that opened four years ago. The ruling also made what HSEA has described as "minor" changes to interconnection tariffs, as well as interconnection terminology. Finally, it suspended the next phase of the Distributed Energy Resources (DER) docket.

Background Materials for Lectures
Dr. Richard H. Steinberg Professor of Law
Lecture Topic beginning January 8, 2013
Politics & the ICC Lecture Question To what extent should the ICC Office of the Prosecutor consider or engage in politics to advance international justice?
Comment on the Politics Lecture Question: "To what extent should the ICC Office of the Prosecutor consider or engage in politics to advance international justice?"
Blainec
I think the ICC should engage in politics to some extent. It shouldn't turn into just a political institution but I think in order to promote its goals it is necessary to some degree to play the political game. For instance, here in the US, there was the civil rights movement, and ultimately part of that was the passing of new laws by congress to promote the civil rights cause. There was the desegregation of public places, education, and more. Then there were also decisions made in the supreme court which supported the civil rights movement as well. Now, I'm not a legal historian so this may just be blatantly wrong, but I think that the Supreme courts decisions which supported civil rights have had a positive role in coming closer to equal treatment in the US. If the supreme court had remained neutral and only aimed for justice instead of also playing politics, then they may have had a lesser, possibly even negative effect on the civil rights movement. Similarly, I think if the ICC chooses to abstain from politics then it will miss its chance to promote the most good and may end up slowing or even negatively impacting positive changes.
Second, I don't think it's justifiable for the court to do something which may be clearly against obtaining peace. So to avoid this it will need to at least make political considerations even if it doesn't play politics as was mentioned in the lecture. For example, suppose that the court wants to prosecute the head of a country, and the most obvious successor would be much worse than the current head and would likely cause all kinds of violence or ruin to the citizens of that country. In this case, I think that justice would call for finding some sort of solution to the problem of the successor and not just calling to trial those who have already commited crimes. I think the court should promote peace and so in cases like this, it should play politics. Admittedly, there will rarely be a time when bringing the criminal to trial is obviously bad for the country, but this examples illustrates the types of political considerations which may need to be made.


Quit your job … with a musical flair!
Twenty-four-year-old Joey DeFrancesco pulled off what most of us have only dreamed of.
He quit his job in a way that made his boss look, well, perhaps not his best, in front of 2 million people and a marching band.
It seems Joey hated his job and was convinced his employer couldn't stand him. So, he used his security card to smuggle in a marching band and a videographer. As the cameras rolled and the band played, Joey offered his boss — who tried to order everybody out — his resignation letter. When the boss refused to take it, Joey flicked it through the air at him, grinned at the camera, and walked out.
And the band played on, trumpeters, trombonists and drummers marching in cadence behind the victorious — but now jobless — Joey.
He posted the video "Joey Quits" on YouTube and Facebook, earning 2 million views and 18,092 likes at last count.
Beyond resonating with millions of people, the video says a few things about how social media are changing the way businesses interact not just with customers but with employees, she said.
It also demonstrates how social media are allowing employees to control the circumstances of their departure for a change, said Anne Kreamer, a former Nickelodeon executive and author of It's Always Personal: Emotions in the New Workplace.
DeFrancesco said he has a new job that allows him to use his history degree, but he wouldn't say where. But it's hard to say what the stunt will cost him in the long run, Hemming said.
Finding a job in corporate America, where potential employers do extensive background checks, could be more challenging, she said.


As one of Canon's "Project Imaginat10n" directors, the Twitter cofounder worked with Ron Howard to turn photos into a short film.
Biz Stone's directorial debut will open with a lot of swiping, pinching, and zooming in on images. "It's a cinematic first: Instead of the Ken Burns Effect, it's the Biz Stone Effect," says Stone.
That may sound pompous, but a) he's joking and b) as a cofounder of Twitter, Stone has had plenty of influence on the ways in which we view content now. "I wasn't going to tell an old-fashioned story in which someone pulls out a photo album and starts turning pages," he says. "That's not how we do it now. We show each other photos on our mobile devices, pinch in on this…Isn't she cute?" he says, as if showing off a photo.
Stone is one of the recruits for Canon U.S.A.'s ongoing "Project Imaginat10n." The latest campaign saw the brand recruit five celebrity directors (along with Stone, Eva Longoria, Jamie Foxx, James Murphy, and Georgina Chapman) who will create films based on user-submitted photos along a series of themes; the films will debut in the fall. Stone was given 91 photos–nine on each of the 10 themes and the final image chosen by director Ron Howard–and he will use each of them in crafting a short film which will star Rene Auberjonois (Deep Space Nine) and Lisa Edelstein (House).
Here, Stone lays out his thinking in selecting the photos, turning them into a clever a tale, making a movie–with some advice from Howard–and what it all means for his day job.
Stone was on vacation visiting his wife's family in Nashville when he snuck away for a few hours one afternoon to a coffee shop, "like I do a lot when I write," he says.
"One huge difference: We don't work outside and we're not freezing while we're working," says Stone. "It's similar in that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts; everyone is doing one little thing. One person is creating the tiny figurine for my model, another is selecting lenses, there's one technical team and one artistic team and [just like at Twitter or any of his startups] everything comes together to create one unified product that people will hopefully enjoy.
See the photos that will be the basis of Stone's film in the slide show above.


If complicated cocktails aren't your thing (or you refuse to admit they're your thing), we've got you covered with this three ingredient drink that packs a punch.
A simple yet strong combination of Kahlúa Chili Chocolate and Absolut Vodka, this is a go-to for the seasoned drinker.
Shake all ingredients with ice, strain over fresh ice in a rocks glass and top with soda. Garnish with a mint sprig.

More Coloradans than ever are contagious with COVID-19, as state warns about hospital trends

By: Ryan Osborne
DENVER — Heading into the Thanksgiving holiday, more Coloradans are contagious with COVID-19 than ever before, and the state is still on track to exceed intensive care capacity by mid-January, according to the latest data released by health officials Tuesday.
An estimated one in 41 Coloradans are contagious with coronavirus, up from one in 49 last week and a large increase from an estimated one in 110 in recent weeks.
The data released by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment came in a news conference Tuesday, in which Gov. Jared Polis and state epidemiologist Rachel Herlihy urged Coloradans to limit their gatherings for Thanksgiving.
The governor said he and his family will be having Thanksgiving alone, with their own household, and he encouraged other Coloradans to do the same to "make sure you have your family there for many Thanksgivings to come."
Herlihy said Colorado must increase transmission control of the virus by increasing social distancing and working to flatten the curve of hospitalizations to preserve ICU capacity.
Colorado has 1,711 confirmed or suspected COVID-19 patients in the hospital, according to the most recent data. Colorado this week also exceeded 200,000 cases of COVID-19. Since the onset of the pandemic, 202,289 cases have been confirmed and 2,456 people have died due to COVID-19. On Monday, Coloradao reported 3,689 new cases of the virus.
Currently, Colorado is seeing around 65% transmission control of the virus, Herlihy said. If the state can increase that control to around 80% — through social distancing and wearing masks — thousands of cases and deaths can be prevented and the state's hospital capacity can be preserved, Herlihy said.
On the flip side, if transmission control decreases through holiday gatherings, the state could exceed ICU capacity sometime in December, according to the state modeling data. The state's current trajectory could also lead to 6,600 total deaths through the end of the year, Herlihy said.
Polis said "our north star" continues to be the possibility of some Coloradans — hospital workers and other first responders — receiving the COVID-19 vaccine within weeks. The state would then distribute the vaccine to other high-risk people, upon availability.
Polis on Tuesday also announced the formation of a special task force on how students can return to in-person learning. Many school districts, including the state's largest in Denver, have moved to fully-remote classes.
"Frankly, we can't let the future of our kids become another casualty to this pandemic," Polis said.
Denver and more than a dozen other Colorado counties were moved to "Level Red" on the state's COVID-19 dial last week, bringing with it a ban on indoor dining and other restrictions. The state created a "Level Purple" as the most extreme level on the dial, though no counties are there yet.

oisf2011 – To Linux and beyond !
Idea is to add a keyword that would be used to interact with GEOIP database (free at least) and be able to use it to detect things like control canal. For example, an IRC server in an non common country is certainly a control canal.
A must have! This is vital for critical environnement. This is very costly in memory and this should be an option to avoid exploding low memory boxes.
Bringing protocol analysis is an interesting point as it will help to increase performance and accuracy of the engine. Knowing the protocol permit to only run protocol related rules to flow of that protocol. And this avoid to have false detection by running the rules on bad protocol. OpenDPI technology and Qosmos technology integration is discussed. A common API is needed to be able to use both systems.
Global flow var will permit to change the way we build rules. Not being constrained anymore to stream variable will increase the power of rules.
Idea is to load host type from file to be able to tune the host setting precisely.
IPFIX support as entry or output could bring some advantages.
Matt Jonkman and Victor Julien will now summarize the input and publish on OISF website the planned features for phase 3 based on discussion about priority of the tasks that have been held.

Enviromena to install 1.34MW Solar Rooftop System in Dubai
Abu Dhabi-based Enviromena Power Systems, one of the region's leading clean energy companies, will install a 1.34 megawatt peak (MWp) rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) system to power the facility of Gulf Center for Soap & Chemical Industries (GCSCI) in Dubai. Enviromena will install 4,126 solar PV panels on the 400,000 square foot GCSCI facility located in the Jebel Ali Industrial area.
"The solar power sector has gained major momentum around the world, and the UAE is one of the region's leaders in the industry. Given the UAE's targets as well as internal sustainability goals of international companies, we are seeing a surge in interest in the commercial sector not just for clean energy, but better energy," said Sami Khoreibi, chief executive of Enviromena. "And by offering more flexibility, including leasing terms, we aim to help the industry grow further." The 20-year leasing agreement (PPA) between Enviromena and GCSCI was signed in March. Construction expected to be complete in the next few months with savings amounting to AED9 million over the contract's duration while producing more than 90 percent of the facility's power needs. "The decision to add solar power to our Dubai facility is the first of what we envision to be more across our other assets in Egypt and Saudi Arabia," said Yousry Hemden, chief executive of GCSCI. "This also puts us as the forefront of remaining the preferred partner for our international clients who are looking to incorporate more sustainability measures throughout their value chain."
GCSCI is a manufacturer to many regional and multinational companies with a manufacturing capacity of 36,000 metric tons per annum. This project will also help save 21,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, which roughly amounts to removing 220 cars from the roads each year.

title: "NTTA to raise speed limits - Woo Hoo!"
slug: "ntta-to-raise-speed-limits-woo-hoo"
---

Today I learned that the North Texas Toll Authority, affectionately
known as NTTA, has requested that the speed limits be raised by 10 miles
per hour on our major toll road areas, including the North Dallas
Tollway and the President George Bush Tollway. It appears that the NTTA
has not raised the speed limits, which currently stand between 55 and 60
MPH, because of a failure to conduct the state's required speed safety
tests, prohibiting the much desired raise in limit.

I for one am quite happy to hear this news. It pains me to know that I
could get a ticket for going over **55 freakin miles per hour** on a
road that ***I HAVE TO PAY TO DRIVE ON!!!*** Good grief, and about time.

Is anybody really filling out your contact form?
You've spent a bunch of time, money and effort making your website just right.
It has a great design. It's responsive for mobile visitors and includes optimized content, following the latest SEO best practices. You have multiple touchpoints for people to contact you, including phone numbers, email addresses and a contact form for people to fill out, telling you what they need.
But is anybody filling out that form?
If the answer is no, it's time to re-evaluate the use of forms on your website.
What purpose do my forms serve and what do I hope to achieve with it?
How much information do I need to gather?
Where are my forms positioned within my site and on-page?
What happens after someone hits submit?
The purpose of any form placed on a website can be as simple as providing an easy way for individuals to contact you, or as complex as a request for a quote (RFQ) for the various products and services you sell.
From the online marketer's perspective, forms on your website provide what we call a "conversion point" or goal. When someone fills out a form on your website and hits submit, that form can then be tracked via analytics as a success metric. From the sales perspective, forms on your site provide optimal lead generation opportunities. Your site is live online, 24/7/365. It's always working, even when you're not. Why not have a form?
Having an understanding of your audience online will help you determine if you're asking the right types of questions to trigger a response.
Aside from where to place the form, this is possibly one of the most debated elements of form creation on a website. Common information includes first name, last name, email address, company name, address, phone number, etc. Make a list of what you feel is important information you need to gather and then cut it down!
Seriously, do you really need their ZIP code, date of birth and blood type just so you can reach out to them and assist them with buying your widget? Odds are no.
When going through this exercise, the question really should be centered around what is the minimal amount of information I need to gather to get the individual to hit submit? In all reality you'll need to obtain a name, email address, phone number and possibly an optional message or request.
In addition, think about how you're asking for the information. Be clear and concise with your ask. Don't get fancy with your words; just ask for the basics and move forward.
If having a contact or lead generation form is Step 1, then Step 2 most certainly is its placement within your site.
Most people have a form on the site's Contact Us page, but how about putting one on a product/service specific page? Is there room to place a short form in the sidebar of those pages? These areas can be lead generation gold. Since users are already on a product/service page and thinking about how your widget will benefit them the most, providing them with a call-to-action to connect with you is sometimes all that's needed to convert.
Success! The individual gave you his or her information and hit submit …now what? Do you lead them to a dead end, or do you take them deeper into the site? Having customized "thank you" pages are an often overlooked element of lead forms. The conversion doesn't have to end with a form. Send them to a customized page that provides them with additional details about your brand, products or service. Perhaps they filled a form out on wheel bearings for heavy duty trucks — now is the time to repurpose that blog content and filter relevant posts into the thank you page. Or, perhaps you would like to include them in your email marketing efforts. Let them sign up right there.
Going through the steps outlined above should give you a pretty decent handle on what your forms should and should not be doing for you. The simpler the better. Ask for the least amount of information for a user to "convert." Now it's your job to close the deal!
Keep those forms top of mind and easy to fill out. Ask straightforward questions in language that's easy to understand and make it snappy. Long, clunky forms will never convert. When in doubt, always fall back to who your audience is and what they want.

The underlying structure of the Universal Declaration was influenced by the Code Napoléon, including a preamble and introductory general principles. Its final structure took from in the second draft prepared by French jurist René Cassin, who worked on the initial draft prepared by Canadian legal scholar John Peters Humphrey.
Eleanor Roosevelt holding the English language version of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
During World War II, the Allies—known formally as the United Nations—adopted as their basic war aims the Four Freedoms freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom from fear, and freedom from want.Towards the end of the war, the United Nations Charter was debated, drafted, and ratified to reaffirm "faith in fundamental human rights, and dignity and worth of the human person" and commit all member states to promote "universal respect for, and observance of, human rights and fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion". When the atrocities committed by Nazi Germany became fully apparent after the war, the consensus within the world community was that the UN Charter did not sufficiently define the rights to which it referred.It was deemed necessary to create a universal declaration that specified the rights of individuals so as to give effect to the Charter's provisions on human rights.
In June 1946, the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC)—a principal organ of the newly founded United Nations responsible for promoting human rights—created the Commission on Human Rights (CHR), a standing body within the UN tasked with preparing what was initially conceived as an International Bill of Rights.It had 18 members from various national, religious, and political backgrounds, so as to be representative of humanity. In February 1947, the Commission established a special Universal Declaration of Human Rights Drafting Committee, chaired by Eleanor Roosevelt of the United States, to write the articles of the Declaration. The Committee met in two sessions over the course of two years.
Canadian John Peters Humphrey, the newly appointed Director of the Division of Human Rights within the United Nations Secretariat, was called upon by the UN Secretary-General to work on the project, becoming the Declaration's principal drafter. Other prominent members of the Drafting Committee included René Cassin of France; Committee Rapporteur Charles Malik of Lebanon, and Vice-Chairman P.C. Chang of the Republic of China. A month after its creation, the Drafting Committee was expanded to include representatives of Australia, Chile, France, the Soviet Union, and the United Kingdom, in addition to the inaugural members from China, France, Lebanon, and the United States.
Humphrey is credited with devising the "blueprint" for the Declaration, while Cassin composed the first draft. Both received considerable input from other members, each of whom reflected different professional and ideological backgrounds. The Declaration's pro-family phrases allegedly derived from Cassin and Malik, who were influenced by the Christian Democracy movement; Malik, a Christian theologian, was known for appealing across religious lines, as well as to different Christian sects. Chang urged removing all references to religion to make the document more universal, and used aspects of Confucianism to settle stalemates in negotiations. Hernán Santa Cruz of Chile, an educator and judge, strongly supported the inclusion of socioeconomic rights, which had been opposed by some Western nations.
In her memoirs, Roosevelt commented on the debates and discussions that informed the UDHR, describing one such exchange during the Drafting Committee's first session in June 1947:
Dr. Chang was a pluralist and held forth in charming fashion on the proposition that there is more than one kind of ultimate reality. The Declaration, he said, should reflect more than simply Western ideas and Dr. Humphrey would have to be eclectic in his approach. His remark, though addressed to Dr. Humphrey, was really directed at Dr. Malik, from whom it drew a prompt retort as he expounded at some length the philosophy of Thomas Aquinas. Dr. Humphrey joined enthusiastically in the discussion, and I remember that at one point Dr. Chang suggested that the Secretariat might well spend a few months studying the fundamentals of Confucianism!
Whereas recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world,
Whereas disregard and contempt for human rights have resulted in barbarous acts which have outraged the conscience of mankind, and the advent of a world in which human beings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of the common people,
Whereas it is essential, if man is not to be compelled to have recourse, as a last resort, to rebellion against tyranny and oppression, that human rights should be protected by the rule of law,
Whereas it is essential to promote the development of friendly relations between nations,
Whereas the peoples of the United Nations have in the Charter reaffirmed their faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person and in the equal rights of men and women and have determined to promote social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom,
Whereas Member States have pledged themselves to achieve, in co-operation with the United Nations, the promotion of universal respect for and observance of human rights and fundamental freedoms,
Whereas a common understanding of these rights and freedoms is of the greatest importance for the full realization of this pledge,
Now, Therefore THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY proclaims THIS UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS as a common standard of achievement for all peoples and all nations, to the end that every individual and every organ of society, keeping this Declaration constantly in mind, shall strive by teaching and education to promote respect for these rights and freedoms and by progressive measures, national and international, to secure their universal and effective recognition and observance, both among the peoples of Member States themselves and among the peoples of territories under their jurisdiction.

Pregnant caregivers are twisting to help patients and clients on a bed or a massage table, which can eventually twist and tighten the uterine ligaments. For instance, if you stand on the same side of the bed or massage table and work on a person, you will be leaning in the same direction while twisting your body. Perhaps you are leaning to your right side repeatedly through the work day. Then the ligament on the right gets tighter and shorter. The ligament on the left is longer.
This may be why the lore is that chiropractors have more difficult births than the patients they treat!
Your uterus will begin to tip over time and stay in that position. Now the baby may not get lined up just so for birth. Labor can be longer and harder than average. Or, even before birth, your womb isn't getting the full circulatory benefit of hormones and oxygen that pregnancy needs. Reverse the twist from massaging clients on one side to release the ligament that gets shorter on the side you lean into.
It's good for pregnant caregivers to get body work, too! Balance your own pelvic area-ligaments, tone, etc. Learning about how you use your body and how you can move your body in a balanced way will help. Watch a British Medical Journal video on the benefits of the Alexander Technique, a way to move your body in a more comfortable way.


Harold Terry "Bizz" Johnson (December 2, 1907 – March 16, 1988) was an American politician from California and a member of the Democratic Party.
Born in Broderick, California, Johnson earned his lifelong nickname "Bizz" at age four when his uncle observed him leading the other children and compared him to Bismarck. He attended public school in Roseville and the University of Nevada. He worked for the Pacific Fruit Express Company, starting as a clerk before rising to a supervisory position, and was a district chairman of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks.
Johnson entered politics as a trustee of the Roseville school board in 1941, was elected to the Roseville city council in 1943, and served as mayor of Roseville. In 1948, he was elected to the California State Senate representing Placer, Nevada and Sierra counties. In the legislature, he supported the creation of a four-lane highway across the Sierra Nevada that eventually became Interstate 80. He also sponsored legislation to ensure that the 1960 Winter Olympics would be held in Squaw Valley.
Johnson was elected to his first of eleven terms to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1958, eventually becoming chairman of the Committee on Public Works and Transportation in 1977. He was a proponent of the Auburn Dam on the American River, however the project never came to fruition. He was known as a stubborn negotiator and resisted efforts to transfer control of Washington Union Station from the Interior Department to the Transportation Department.
Johnson was reelected by comfortable margins, even as the district turned more conservative. However, Johnson lost reelection to Republican state assemblyman Eugene A. Chappie in 1980 on the back of former California Governor Ronald Reagan's strong victory in that year's presidential election, falling to only 39.8 percent of the vote. After his defeat, he continued to lobby for uncompleted projects that had been authorized when he in office. Proving just how Republican this district was, a Democrat has only cracked the 40 percent barrier six times since Johnson left office.
Johnson married Albra Irene Manuel of Roseville in 1937, remaining together to her death in 1983, and had a son and daughter. He died on March 16, 1988 at a Sacramento hospital at the age of 80.
Highway 65 from Roseville to Lincoln is named the Harold T. Bizz Johnson Expressway.
The interchange at U.S. Route 101 and State Route 92 is named the Harold T. Bizz Johnson Interchange.
The multi-use trail linking Susanville to Westwood in Lassen County, California is named the Bizz Johnson Trail. Johnson led the transformation of the longest rail to trail project in California.

Science and Technology – ICT Strategy
Cassy O'Connor MP - Tuesday, 24 November 2020
Tags: Public Service
Ms O'CONNOR - Thank you and I understand, minister, we're talking about the whole-of-government ICT strategy. The Auditor-General stated -
There's no evidence that the current whole-of-government function currently delivered through Digital Strategy Services at DPAC has the appropriate mandate and resourcing to be able to support the delivery of a whole-of-government ICT vision if one was developed.
This is a fundamental structural problem identified by the Auditor-General. What are you going to do to ensure this work progresses and the Our Digital Future Strategy doesn't become another plan to nowhere without meaningful funding and resourcing attached?
Mr FERGUSON - We took a different view to the Auditor General and we do so with great respect. Some of which in his findings the agencies and being led by DEPAC and I note would advise you to have a look at the Auditor General's report. He has very fairly allowed a response from Jenny Gale on behalf of all the agency secretary's that were written to and each of them were given a separate opportunity to provide their own response. It was agreed between them one response would be sufficient. There have definitely been some differences of opinion expressed in that response. Having said that, everybody involved is professional, respectful and taking on board that some of those recommendations can and should be responded to.
The Government's view acknowledged in the report's summary of findings is that a Digital Transformation Strategy was a necessary precursor to setting ICT strategy to action and our digital future sets that broader strategic context. Ms Gale made the very strong point you must have your digital vision settled before you can move to an ICT vision. There is also a language issue here because we set out vey clearly in Our Digital Future plan a technology roadmap which, Glen, it is fair to say, is just a different way of expressing the same thing ICT vision.
We can bridge some of these differences of opinion in a quite professional way and recognising those different terms perhaps mean the same thing and are intended to mean the same thing. I will invite Dr Lewis to add to that. I would like to give it a proper answer in regards to responding to the whole of government policies we are adopting so it is contemporary and fit for purpose for our own needs and public facing services.
Ms O'CONNOR - Just in doing that, perhaps address, the minister has said he does not agree with the Auditor General so it is interesting the Government cherry picks which Auditor General's advice it wants to listen to.
Mr FERGUSON - Professionals can disagree.
Ms O'CONNOR - Yes, unless that backs in your EOI process. Perhaps those areas of the Auditor General's report the Government does not agree with might be more of an issue for you minister.
Mr FERGUSON - I act on the advice of professional people in the Department of Premier and Cabinet. In this case, we did not want to be seen to dissent from the Audit Office's report. We take it on board and welcome their feedback. I have welcomed the report because as I have been very clear on the road's program, when the Auditor General gave a very positive report, but nonetheless provided some suggestions for improvement of roads management in Tasmania which we took on board. Same here and on advice of the Secretary of Department of Premier and Cabinet we believe there are some areas where we can afford to have a slightly different view. I am expressing that very respectfully because I respect that office. I would like to hear from you again.
Mr LEWIS - In terms of the Auditor General's recommendations, the point the minister has made is the digital's future strategy does include a technology roadmap. That roadmap aligns with the Auditor General's recommendations to have an ICT division, roadmap or strategy. That is definitely one of the things we are working on and intend to consult on that roadmap or vision early next year. That is aligning with the Auditor General's recommendations 1 and 2 which is about division and strategy. The recommendations around the governance is already built into the terms of reference of our governance boards. That action is underway with the digital service board and the underlying committees and also aligns with the Auditor General's recommendations,
The ICT asset management recommendation of the Auditor General will be considered by agencies to align with the vision and the road map. The final one is Treasury to review the certification process, which they have agreed to do. The critical asset registered agencies are ready to do that. From that you can see we actually align with the recommendations of the Auditor General.

Obama, who was the first president to celebrate Diwali personally at the White House in 2009, talked about this momentous occasion in a Facebook post soon after he kindled the diya in his Oval Office with some Indian Americans working in his administration.
"I was proud to be the first President to host a Diwali celebration at the White House in 2009, and Michelle and I will never forget how the people of India welcomed us with open arms and hearts and danced with us in Mumbai on Diwali," President Obama said.
"This year, I was honored to kindle the first-ever diya in the Oval Office—a lamp that symbolizes how darkness will always be overcome by light. It is a tradition that I hope future Presidents will continue," Obama said on the White House Facebook page, which became viral on the social media.
By late night it was liked by more than 1.5 lakh people and shared more than 33,000 times.
"On behalf of the entire Obama family, I wish you and your loved ones peace and happiness on this Diwali," Obama said.
"To all who are celebrating the festival of lights across America and around the world, happy Diwali. As Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, and Buddhists light the diya, share in prayers, decorate their homes, and open their doors to host and feast with loved ones, we recognize that this holiday rejoices in the triumph of good over evil and knowledge over ignorance," said the President.
"It also speaks to a broader truth about our shared American experience. It's a reminder of what's possible when we see beyond the differences that too often divide us. It's a reflection of the hopes and dreams that bind us together," he said.
Obama said that it is a time to renew collective obligation to deepen those bonds, to stand in each other's shoes and see the world through each other's eyes, and to embrace each other as brothers and sisters—and as fellow Americans.
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, who has a large fan following in the Indian American community, greeted Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists and Jains across the world on the occasion of Diwali.
"On Sunday, nearly a billion Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, and Buddhists around the world—including more than two million Americans—will celebrate Diwali, the festival of lights.
For members of these faiths, lighting the lamp (the diya) is a reminder that light prevails over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, and good over evil," Clinton said.
UN General Assembly President Peter Thomson lit the traditional lamp at a ceremony, Oct. 31, to celebrate Diwali at the UN Secretariat.
"The #Diwali Diya is lighted @UN for 1st time. Thank you Ambassador Thomson for your open embrace of multiculturalism," India's Ambassador to the UN, Syed Akbaruddin tweeted.
The Diwali celebrations at the UN included Indian dance and music performances as traditional Indian fare was served for UN diplomats and officials.
"India Artists performing Fusion Dance on the occasion of Diwali," India's mission to the UN tweeted along with a video of the dance performance.
Diwali was commemorated for the first time at the United Nations, as the world body's imposing headquarters was lit up especially on the occasion of the Indian festival of lights.
The UN's facade was lit in bright hues and the words "Happy Diwali" along with the image of a traditional diya (lamp) projected onto the building. The image was displayed from October 29-31.
It is for the first time that the Indian festival of lights has been celebrated at the UN after it was recognized by the world body.
"Happy Diwali! @UN celebrates Diwali for 1st time. Thank you for this initiative," Akbaruddin had tweeted.
Noting that the festival is observed in many UN member states, the resolution had called on UN bodies to avoid holding meetings on Diwali, declaring it a no-meeting day.
From 2016 onwards, Diwali was made an optional holiday for the UN, India's Permanent Mission to the UN said in a special video message.
City residents had flocked to the UN headquarters in large numbers to take a photo of the first-ever such projection on the building.
Earlier this year in June, the UN building was lit up on the occasion of the International Yoga Day, with images of Yoga postures projected on the imposing headquarters.

Князь Юрий Михайлович Мещерский - каширский городовой дворянин, голова и городовой воевода из рода Мещерских.

Биография
Сын каширского дворянина князя Михаила (молитвенное имя Петр) Михайловича Мещерского, называемого в родословцах Темным или Слепым. При крещении получил имя Павел.
На службе с начала 50-х годов XVI века. Дворовый сын боярский по Кашире. В числе других каширян участвовал в военных действиях против крымских татар и в Ливонской войне. Выборный дворянин (1556).
При отражении второго набега крымского хана Девлет-Гирея на Москву был головой сотни мещовских дворян в большом полку князя Михаила Ивановича Воротынского "на берегу". В составе большого полка участвовал в битве при Молодях (1572). Голова на Осколе (1577).
Во время похода короля Стефана Батория на Великие Луки (1580) был в числе голов с сотнями, присланных в Смоленск к князю Даниилу Андреевичу Ногтеву для усиления обороны города на случай осады.
Воевода в Михайлове (1582). Осадный голова в Зарайске (1588—1589). Губной староста в Кашире (1594—1598).
Умер между 1599 и 1603 годами. Перед смертью принял постриг и схиму в Троицком Белопесоцком монастыре под именем Парамон. При реставрационных работах в подклете Троицкого собора монастыря было обнаружено белокаменное надгробие с надписью: «…стола Симона Щилота преставися раб божий Павел Петрович князь Юрьи Михалович Мещорской во иноцех схимник Парамон».

Земельные владения
По писцовым книгам Каширского уезда 1578/79 года за ним в Раставском стане поместье: село Любилово на речке Березыни, а в нем церковь Василия Кесарийского, деревня Гнилуша на речке Гнилуше, половина деревни Антимоновой и деревня Желудевка, всего 450 четвертей без полуосьмины.

Семья
Сыновья:
 князь Матвей Юрьевич
 князь Фёдор Юрьевич (убит в 1607 году)  — Жилец. При царе Борисе «по опале» переведен в выборные дворяне. Служил по Кашире. Убит в Туле по приказу царевича Петра.
 Его сын князь Никифор Фёдорович.
 князь Тимофей Юрьевич († 1614) — Дворянин московский. Второй воевода в Мценске с князем Иваном Андреевичем Хворостининым (1613). Был послан из Мценска в помощники к воеводе князю Даниилу Долгорукому с заданием освободить Путивль и Рыльск от поляков и отрядов Ивана Заруцкого. После занятия города — воевода в Путивле (июль 1613—1614). Умер на воеводстве в Путивле.

Критика
Одновременно с князем Юрием Михайловичем действовали:
 князь Юрий Григорьевич Боровитинов Мещерский, второй воевода в Пронске (1579), объезжий голова в Москве (1591-1602).
 князь Юрий Иванович Плишкин Мещерский, голова в Белеве (1585-86), Новосиле (1587), Черни (1588-89), Зарайске (1592-94).
Биографические сведения об этих трех князьях Юриях Мещерских часто путаются и приписываются той или иной из трех персон некорректно.

4            S-1
5            S-2
6            S-4

Code to reproduce the example
library(data.table)

letter=c('I','S','P','D')
start=c(2,1,1,1)
end=c(7,4,3,2)
label=1:15
code.table = data.table(letter,start,end)

lookup.table = data.table(code=code.vector,label=label)

df = data.table(Rate = paste0("S-", c(4,4,4,1,2,4)))

Attempt:
df$rank = merge(df,lookup.table,by.x="Rate",by.y="code",all.x=TRUE,sort=F)$label

Below a sample of the output, and the merge is not producing the expected results. I am expecting the merge to join the lookup.table and df when code=Rate.

Q: How to remove a GitHub account from Visual Studio I want to add my GitHub account to Visual Studio.

When I click GitHub, this page shows up:

This is an another account. So, I don't want to use this account. I deleted everything from Settings->Developer Settings->OAuthApps-Github Apps-Personal Access Tokens

Also, I deleted Windows Credentials related to Github and Visual Studio from:
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Credential Manager
But still, when click to add GitHub account it redirects me to authorization page of another account. How should delete the another account and I add my account?

A: There are several way to do this.
either you can:
GithubSite -> Login -> Settings -> Developer Settings -> Personal Access Token -> Delete (Token For that PC Name) -> click Agree (I Understand, delete this token)
or you can run this in the Visual Studio Code terminal:
git config credential.helper
Then Go to and delete the file C:\Users(your username).git-credentials or you can simply remove the @github user rows from the text file.
Then go to Windows password: Control Panel → All Control Panel Items → Credential Manager. The passwords are referenced to the GitHub label in generic.
Then log in into your GitHub account with your default browser. After that, restart Visual Studio Code. Clone from GitHub and follow the authorization steps from Visual Studio Code.

Yobe govt flags-off campaign against open defecation
Governor Mai Mala Buni.
From Sa'adatu MAINA, Damaturu
Yobe government launches a campaign against open defecation in the state to protect the environment.
The Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni, represented by his deputy Idi Gubana said the sensitisation campaign would cover the entire local government councils in the state.
"We undertake this advocacy to 17 local government areas in the state to sensitize on the dangers and negative consequences of open defecation which is aimed at protecting our environment, culture, norms and values as people.
In addition, to be an open defecation-free society, reduces the incidences of diseases and other anti-social behaviour in our state thus, making it conducive for human habitation, agricultural practices and other social-economic activities.
Buni further pointed out the dangers and consequences of open defecation.
"The dangers and consequences of open defecation in our society range from the infestation of diseases such as typhoid, cholera, malaria, among others.
"It has a negative effect on our environment by polluting the air with bad odour and making the land inhabitable", Buni added.
Buni called on local government councils, community heads, traditional rulers and other important stakeholders to step up action and assist in preventing open defecation through sanitization of the community.
