STS-63's primary objective was to perform a rendezvous and fly around the Russian space station Mir. The objectives of the Mir Rendezvous/Flyby were to verify flight techniques, communications and navigation aid sensor interfaces, and engineering analyses associated with Shuttle/Mir proximity operations in preparation for the STS-71 docking mission.
Other objectives of the flight were to perform the operations necessary to fulfill the requirements of experiments located in SPACEHAB-3 and to fly captively, then deploy and retrieve the Spartan-204 payload. Spartan-204, the Shuttle Pointed Autonomous Research Tool for Astronomy, was a free-flying retrievable platform. It was designed to obtain data in the far ultraviolet region of the spectrum from diffuse sources of light. Two crewmembers were scheduled to perform a five-hour spacewalk.
Payloads flying aboard STS-63 included the Cryo Systems Experiment (CSE), the Shuttle Glow (GLO-2) experiment, Orbital Debris Radar Calibration Spheres (ODERACS-2), the Solid Surface Combustion Experiment (SSCE), the Air Force Maui Optical Site Calibration Test (AMOS) and the Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX).
Beginning on flight day one, series of thruster burns were performed daily to bring Discovery in line with Mir. Original plan called for the orbiter to approach to no closer than 10 meters (33 ft) from Mir, and then complete a flyaround of the Russian space station. However, three of the 44 orbiter Reaction Control System (RCS) thrusters—small firing jets used for on-orbit maneuvering—sprang leaks prior to rendezvous. Shortly after main engine cutoff, two leaks occurred in the aft primary thrusters, one of which—called R1U—was key to rendezvous. A third leak occurred later in flight in the forward primary thruster, but the crew was able to fix the problem.
After extensive negotiations and technical information exchanges between U.S. and Russian space teams, Russians concluded close approach could be safely achieved and the STS-63 crew was given 'go' to proceed. R1U thruster manifold was closed and the backup thruster was selected for the approach. Ship-to-ship radio contact with Mir was achieved well ahead of time, and Titov, who had previously lived on Mir for more than a year, communicated excitedly with the three cosmonauts aboard the space station: Mir 17 Commander Alexander Viktorenko; Flight Engineer Yelena Kondakova; and Valery Polyakov, a physician who had broken Titov's record for extended time in space. After stationkeeping at a distance of 122 metres (400 ft) from Mir and with Wetherbee manually controlling the orbiter, Discovery was flown to 11 metres (36 ft) from the Russian space station. "As we are bringing our spaceships closer together, we are bringing our nations closer together," Wetherbee said after Discovery was at point of closest approach. "The next time we approach, we will shake your hand and together we will lead our world into the next millennium." The Closest approach to Mir of 11 metres (36 ft) occurred on 6 February 1995 at 19:23:20 UTC.
Cosmonaut Valeriy V. Polyakov observes the rendezvous procedures from the Mir Core Module.
"We are one. We are human," Viktorenko responded. Wetherbee then backed away to 122 metres (400 ft) and performed one and a quarter-loop flyaround of Mir while station was filmed and photographed. The Mir crew reported no vibrations or solar array movement as result of the approach.
The crew also worked extensively with payloads aboard Discovery. Flying in forward payload bay and activated on flight day one was SPACEHAB-3. The commercially developed module was making its third flight on the Shuttle and carried 20 experiments: 11 biotechnology experiments, three advanced materials development experiments, four technology demonstrations and two pieces of supporting hardware measuring on-orbit accelerations. Improvements had been made to the SPACEHAB system to reduce demand on crew time. A new video switch had been added to lessen the need for astronaut involvement in video operations, and an experiment interface had been added to the telemetry system to allow the experiment investigator to link directly via computer with the onboard experiment to receive data and monitor status. Charlotte, an experimental robotic device being flown for first time, also reduced crew workload by taking over simple tasks such as changing experiment samples.
Among plant growth experiments were Astroculture, flying for fourth time on Shuttle. The objective of Astroculture was to validate performance of plant growth technologies in the microgravity environment of space for application to a life support system in space. The investigation had applications on Earth, since it covered such topics as energy-efficient lighting and removal of pollutants from indoor air. One of the pharmaceutical experiments, Immune, also had Earth applications. Exploiting a known tendency of spaceflight to weaken the immune system, Immune experiment tested the ability of a particular substance to prevent or reduce this weakening. Clinical applications could include treatment of individuals suffering from such immunosuppressant diseases as AIDS.
On flight day two, the crew deployed the Orbital Debris Radar Calibration System-II (ODERACS-II) to help characterize orbital debris environment for objects smaller than 10 centimeters (about four inches) in diameter. Complement of six target objects of known dimensions and with limited orbital lifespans released into orbit and tracked by ground-based radars, allowing precise calibration of radars so they can more accurately track smaller pieces of space debris in low Earth orbit.
Also on flight day two, the crew lifted with the orbiter remote manipulator system arm the SPARTAN-204 from its support structure in payload bay. SPARTAN remained suspended on arm for observation of orbiter glow phenomenon and thruster jet firings. SPARTAN-204 was later released from the arm to complete about 40 hours of free-flight, during which time its Far Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph instrument studied celestial targets in the interstellar medium, the gas and dust which fills the space between the stars and which is the material from which new stars and planets are formed.
SPARTAN-204 was also used for extravehicular activity (EVA) near end of the flight. Foale and Harris began their EVA suspended at the end of the robot arm, away from the payload bay, to test modifications to their spacesuits to keep spacewalkers warmer in the extreme cold of space. The two astronauts were then scheduled to practice handling the approximately 2,500 pound (1,100 kilograms (2,400 lb)) SPARTAN to rehearse space station assembly techniques, but both astronauts reported they were becoming very cold—this portion of the spacewalk being performed during a night pass—and mass handling was curtailed. This 29th Shuttle spacewalk, the first for both a UK-born astronaut and an African-American astronaut, lasted 4 hours, 38 minutes.
Other payloads: Along with ODERACS-II, Cryo System Experiment (CSE) and Shuttle Glow (GLO-2) payloads were mounted on the Hitchhiker support assembly in cargo bay; an IMAX camera was also located here. In middeck, the Solid Surface Combustion Experiment (SSCE) flew for eighth time. Air Force Maui Optical Site (AMOS) test requires no onboard hardware.
BioServe Space Technologies at the University of Colorado, Boulder, developed the Fluids Generic Bioprocessing Apparatus-1 (FGBA-1) in cooperation with Coca-Cola and several other groups. It dispensed pre-mixed soda for astronauts' consumption and studied their changed taste perceptions. Astronauts rated control samples before and after flight. FGBA-2 flew on STS-77.

CM: Eva Ohlow's series of Architectural and Mathematical Drawings were part of an installation entitled Die Definition des Unendlichen (The Linkage of Parallel Worlds) exhibited in Motherboard: Reincarnation of a Computer Board at the Fraunhofer-Institute, Dartmstad, and DASA-Galerie, Dortmund. The drawings were made as a homage to the ancient Library of Alexandria, which was a center of learning at the time, and they are dedicated to Ptolemy and Eycleid. These drawings are like pages from codexes in the Library as they emerged in the desert. Ohlow's Mathematical Drawing #16 represents three pairs of lines, of which the first cross each other, the second run parallel, and the third interrupt one another.


THE RICHARD ROGERS THEATER, BROADWAY — Vice President-elect Mike Pence went to see Hamilton here yesterday with family members. As he entered the theater, he was greeted with both boos and cheers from the audience. Pence was taking a break from his duties as the top transition planner for the Trump Administration.
At the end of the performance, Broadway star Brandon Victor Dixon, who plays Aaron Burr, addressed the Indiana governor's presence.
"Vice President-elect Pence, we see you walking out, but I hope you hear us, just a few more moments," Dixon said as some of the audience members booed Pence.
Ever on duty, associate solitary reporter Johanna Jones texted us with the real skinny.
As Pence was leaving the theater, Rory James O'Malley, who plays King George III in the smash hit musical, left backstage with his husband, Gerold Schroeder, and the rest of the cast, and asked the governor why he had pushed Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration Act so vigorously. The Indiana RFRA was worded in such a way that it would permit discrimination against LGBTQ persons. Widespread protests erupted, led by, among others, Apple CEO Tim Cook. Angie's List announced that it would cancel a $40 million expansion of its Indianapolis-based headquarters because of concerns over the law. The mayors of San Francisco and Seattle banned official travel to Indiana. Although Pence defended the law, he was forced by the backlash to sign legislation revising the law to prevent potential discrimination.
After Pence told O'Malley and Schroeder to leave him alone, they rushed up to Pence and kissed him on the lips. Pence quaked in his cowboy boots and texted Trump's son-in-law and chief protector, Jared Kushner, who ran from Trump Tower to the theatre with his brass knuckles, which he used to slug O'Malley and Schroeder.
Kushner's response (he is an Orthodox Jew) cannot be printed here.


The "Made to Crave" study of course deals with the issue of foods. But we can turn to many bad vices during our pity parties. I love this thought of parking your mind. When you are feeling low and begin your pity party, park your mind, pull out from memory your favorite verse or a verse you have written down and "park your mind in a better spot". The verse above is a great place to park. If anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things, because they were made by our God.


Legionella bacteria is the cause of the potentially fatal Legionnaires' disease, a severe form of pneumonia, as well as other, less serious fevers. Legionnaires' can affect anyone who comes into contact with the bacteria.
Legionella is found in low numbers in natural water sources, but when confined to purpose-built water systems, can multiply, unless appropriate measures are taken to control the risks by storing the water at the correct temperature.
The bacteria is usually contracted by inhaling small drops of water that have been suspended in the air. It grows in temperatures between 20–45°C which means cold water must be stored at lower temperatures and hot water at higher temperatures. It can also grow in deposits such as sludge, rust, scale and other organic matter, so it's important to keep water systems clean at all times.
All commercial offices have water onsite and will, therefore, need to carry out regular legionella risk assessments, whatever the age of the building or water system. Assessments should be undertaken every two years, and systems monitored on a regular basis.
We can undertake the risk assessment, regular monitoring on your behalf and help you understand more about the legionella bacteria.

3 reasons translators will be hooked on Facebook�s new 'Paper' app
by Ofer Tirosh
Everyone knows that Facebook is big business. Since its foundation in 2004, the company has grown to employ over 6,000 members of staff, with offices in 25 countries around the world. The site had an average of 757 million daily active users in December 2013. As well as those using their PCs and laptops to access Facebook, the site recorded some 945 million monthly active users who were using mobile devices to access it as of December 2013.
With so many mobile users, it is perhaps unsurprising that the new Facebook Paper app shot up the app charts within hours of its release in February 2014. At the time of writing, the free app was at number 5 on the iTunes app chart.
A tool for translators
Paper is tipped to attract more than just the casual Facebook user. Translators around the world have been eagerly awaiting its release. With the app's method of compiling photos, stories, videos and links uploaded by Facebook users into a news-style format, it essentially creates a hybrid between Facebook and an eZine.
For translators, this provides an easily digestible combination not only of their friends' statuses, but also of updates and links provided by translation-related pages that they follow through the main Facebook site.
As the app also makes it easy to share content with others, just as one might expect from a Facebook app, translators can easily pass on relevant and newsworthy updates that they come across.
The new face of social networking
Translators have also been eager to see just how Paper works. As a market leader in social networking and having been translated into multiple languages itself, Facebook has generated a great deal of translation work over the years. Now its Paper app looks set to do the same, as Facebook reaches out to even more users in even more countries.
Paper provides an entirely fresh perspective when it comes to viewing Facebook. In the past, radical changes to the presentation of Facebook have not always been well received. Despite the fact that they are using an entirely free service, many users feel a sense of ownership and that they ought to be consulted before changes are enforced. Given the inherent opt-in nature of an App, though, it is unlikely that Paper will meet with the same resistance to change, although only time can tell!
More updates in real time
Translators who use Facebook as a means of finding work and liaising with clients will also benefit from the App, as Paper puts more real time updates at their fingertips. For an industry where communication is king, this will no doubt be greatly appreciated.

Throat pain caused due to sore throat or strep throat can be treated with simple household remedies. Presented below are remedies that will help ease your pain and give quick relief.
Pain in throat can be caused due to strep throat, sore throat, or as a symptom of common cold or flu (influenza). Strep throat is a bacterial infection caused by the bacteria Streptococcus. Sore throat and strep throat are not to be confused, as sore throat is a reaction caused after a viral infection like in common cold, whereas, strep throat is caused due to bacterial infection. On the other hand, throat pain can also be caused due to singing or shouting loudly for a longer period, as a reaction of certain allergy, etc. It can be treated with the help of over-the-counter medications as well as home remedies.
There are many medications that are available over-the-counter and help in strep and sore throat treatment. You can go for painkiller medications and medicated lozenges to ease the pain. You can also go for sprays that help in giving quick relief (it should be noted that throat sprays are meant only for adults and are not to be used in case of children and infants). Apart from these, there are several effective home remedies that can be used.
Having hot or warm drinks is one of the best remedies to ease the pain and inflammation caused due to sore throat. You can have any hot drinks like ginger tea, herbal tea, chicken soup, etc. once or twice a day.
One of the most ancient and yet effective throat pain remedies is to gargle with salt water 3-4 times a day. You can add ½ teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water and gargle.
Lemon and honey contain natural anti-bacterial properties, and hence, a mixture of the two can help treat throat pain. You can mix 2 teaspoons of honey in warm water and 1-2 drops of lemon juice and have the mixture 1-2 times a day.
Apple cider vinegar also contains properties that help in treating infections. A mixture of lemon, honey, apple cider vinegar, and cayenne pepper can be effective.
Garlic is also a natural antibiotic and antiseptic that helps in treating infections. You can include garlic in your dishes or soak 2-3 cloves of garlic in honey and eat it after some time.
Ginger tea has been used as a throat pain remedy, especially in Asian countries, since ancient times. While preparing tea, you can add 2-3 slices of ginger and boil the tea and have it once or twice a day.
Licorice is yet another option that help in giving quick relief. It is also one of the ingredients of several herbal teas.
Basil is a herb having natural healing properties. You can boil some leaves of holy basil and have the warm water or gargle with the water.
A typical throat pain caused due to sore throat or strep throat will ease within a couple of days. If not, consult the doctor immediately. Take care!


ETC Institute specializes in helping organizations use market research to make better decisions. During the past five years, the results of our market research have lead to more than $2 billion in funding initiatives by state, municipal, and county governments as well as numerous educational and nonprofit organizations. Projects that have been funded include a wide range of community redevelopment projects, tourism attractions, neighborhood improvements, downtown revitalization projects, open space acquisition and park improvements, and the development of numerous specialized leisure facilities such as community centers, aquatic centers, and sports facilities.
Our Research Helps Community Leaders Balance the Needs of the General Public with Special Interest Groups.
Special interest groups often dominate local-decision making processes because they actively participate in community meetings and share their ideas with local officials. While input from special interest groups is important, the needs of the general public can be overlooked if community leaders only have input from well organized groups and community activists. ETC Institute's surveys are designed to ensure the needs of the entire community are represented.


Nine Things You Should Never Say in an Interview !!
Ask questions that show you're well informed and eager to work at the company, not those to which you should already know the answers, or that can be easily gleaned from the company's website or annual report.
But don't pretend to be flexible when you aren't. If you're worried that your salary requirements are too high for the job, you may need to do some serious thinking about how low you're willing to go. Don't sell yourself short, but ask yourself how much you honestly think you're worth. Do research about what similar jobs pay and what salaries are like in the region. If a company comes back with too low an offer, you can always try and negotiate up.
Maybe that is how all of your friends talk (and it's become a habit with you), but it's not the way you should speak during a job interview. Using slang is a serious turnoff for interviewers. You may be articulate, intelligent, and confident, but like, you sure won't sound that way.
Don't lie! You'll be found out, and you'll regret it. Someday when you least expect it, someone somewhere will discover that you didn't really increase sales by 999 percent in six months. Interviewers know you'll probably exaggerate a little to sell yourself; but don't cross the line between exaggeration and out-and-out lying.
When interviewers ask you about long-term goals, they want an answer that relates to the company. Telling them that you really want to be living on a farm (unless you're applying for an agricultural job) isn't going to convince them that you're an ambitious professional in your chosen field.
Even if you don't plan to stick around long, say something that reflects a commitment to the position and the company. This may seem to contradict the previous exhortation about lying, but try to think of it as a rhetorical question. You might still be at the same company in five years, right?
Rather than admitting that you don't have a specific skill, stress that you're a fast learner and are excited about the possibility of acquiring new skills. Most companies would rather hire an enthusiastic, smart person who needs to be trained than someone who already has the required skills but isn't as eager to learn.
Even if an interviewer starts getting personal, don't follow suit. You may think you're being open and honest, but you're really just coming across as unprofessional, unfocused, and disrespectful. Keep it businesslike and polite.
Interviewers hate arrogance and selfishness. They want to know why they should hire you. Stress the contributions you can make. Tell them about how your efforts helped previous employers. Don't start asking about raises, bonuses, and promotions right away.
Remember, you're the one being interviewed, and while you should use the opportunity to get your questions answered, you shouldn't make it seem as if you'll be doing them a favor if they hire you.
Bad-mouthing your previous employer is possibly the dumbest thing you can do during an interview. Even if your last company was a chaotic hellhole, your boss was a monster, your coworkers were Martians, and you got paid in tin cans, say that you left to look for more responsibility, you wanted greater opportunity for advancement, or you were just ready for a change.
When it comes to big-ticket items like consumer electronics, cars and so on, it's very important to carefully research the product before making a purchase. This has gotten a lot easier with a number of online resources which provide product reviews by professionals and ordinary users as well as price information.
Very often, you can save quite a lot of money by waiting a little or by buying a different brand to your usual one. For example, if you go to a supermarket there will be a different set of brands on sale every week in each category. If you buy the items that are on sale, instead of sticking to your regular brand, you can save quite a bit of money.
Quite often, we end up overspending on small things like coffee and cigarettes, which don't seem expensive but add up to a considerable amount over a long period.
Saving and investing in a disciplined and regular manner is a very important aspect of managing your finances properly. Start investing as early as possible and get the power of compound interest to build yourself an adequate retirement fund.
India's information technology sector would require nearly 500,000 professionals in the next five years to cater to the growing needs of this booming industry, Kiran Karnik, president National Association of Software and Service Companies said on Wednesday.
Currently, the industry required 300,000 professionals, however the number was expected to nearly double with the sector being poised for huge growth, he said during the inauguration of the country's first IT finishing school.
Though the institutes churned out a huge number of engineering graduates, the industry was left with less than 300,000 professionals to hire from, since many of them turned entrepreneurs, some sought jobs overseas while others opted for higher studies, Karnik said.

Water Damage Restoration Windsor - Are You Getting Heavy Rain? Here's How To Avoid Water Damage!
Are You Getting Heavy Rain? Here's How To Avoid Water Damage!
As the weather in Colorado shifts from Spring to Summer, rain tends to fall—a lot. So how do you know your roof or your home's exterior is going to keep the rain out before the leaks find their way inside? At All Phase Restoration, it's best to be proactive about this and ask yourself a series of questions, which we will share in this post. Prevention is much less expensive than water damage restoration services, even though we're a water restoration company that services Windsor. Nonetheless, your roof and walls are the first and last line of defense to preventing leaks, flooding, and extensive water damage during or after a heavy rain.
When it rains, we assume our roof and walls will keep us dry and safe. In most cases, your home has been built to code and upheld to the highest standards of craftsmanship; however, it's best to take some preventive action to ensure you don't experience water damage of any kind. Here are four questions to consider before the next heavy rain in Windsor.
Where is all the rain going?
For the most part, the rain should hit your roof, run into your gutters, rush in to your yard, and flow away from your home. If at any point these steps are interrupted or not setup correctly, you could find yourself with a flooded basement or leaks in your roof. Make sure your roof is damage free, inspect your gutters to make sure they're directing water away from your home, and, finally, double check that the landscape around your home is sloped away from the foundation.
It can be easy to do a few laps around the house and call your water damage prevention check complete; however, you may want to call a local roof inspector to make sure your roof is damage free. Consider checking the crawl space beneath your home. In some cases, leaks can run from the roof, down the inside of the walls, and end up in your crawl space. You won't know there's a water issue until it's too late. Finally, check your attic, if you have one, for wet spots or mold growth. Sometimes water will make it into the attic but not into the home.
If your landscaping slopes away from your home, great! You're not finished checking the land around your home. In some cases, your property may be directing water towards your home and a small slope away won't keep the water from collecting against your foundation. Consider installing a drainage system or doing a little landscaping work farther away from your home.
If in the middle of a rainstorm, you notice your ceiling beginning to leak, don't go check the roof. Do what you can to alleviate the issue, but keep your safety in mind. Placing a bucket beneath the leak or simply redirecting the water to reduce water damage is the best case scenario. Furthermore, if your home is flooding, make sure you and your family is safe. Evacuate the area if needed.
It's frustrating to discover your home has taken on water damage, whether you knew it was happening or not. That's why the experts at All Phase Restoration serve Windsor! We're here to help you restore your water damaged home back to its previous state. Call us today to ask questions or schedule a service.

JazzAscona
This vibrant festival is celebrating its 36th anniversary on Ascona's lakeside promenade. One of Switzerland's biggest jazz festivals, it's proud to be the only such event outside the USA to be officially supported by the city of New Orleans. But how did it come into being, and what makes it so special?
The festival was founded in 1975 by Hannes Anrig, who led the festival 1975-1984 under the name Festa New Orleans, at the beginning still in Lugano (Anrig stayed with the festival until 1996). Relocating to Ascona in 1985, it gradually grew to become a jazz mecca of Switzerland and Europe.
Ascona Tourism took over the running of the festival in 1993, appointing Nicolas Gilliet to the post of artistic director in 2003 – a role he still holds. The Festa New Orleans was renamed "JazzAscona – New Orleans & Classic" in 2004. Following 30-plus years of jazz experience, the festival reached an agreement with the New Orleans authorities in 2015, which saw the birth of "The New Orleans Experience – Music & Food from Louisiana". The festival split off from Ascona Tourism in 2018 to become an autonomous entity.
Anyone who's not yet attended JazzAscona should definitely make an effort this summer: for ten days, Ascona experiences a warm, "southern state" wind blowing through its alleys, bringing good vibes and a wealth of great music.
The sun-drenched village, known for the positivity of its inhabitants, radiates even more energy and zest for life during the festival. The first concerts of the day – the "Music Hours" – start at 11 a.m., while the evening performances between 7 p.m. and 1 a.m. take place on the main stages. The lakeside promenade, decorated with a thousand lights, is a sea of happy souls carried away by the music, dancing, laughing or simply enjoying the relaxed ambience over a drink. And if that's still not enough, the jam sessions in a more intimate setting continue until three in the morning.
A touch of New Orleans in Ascona: We're not on the Mississippi, but if everywhere sounds like New Orleans, then we want to taste New Orleans, too, including classic examples of Louisiana's lip-smacking cuisine.
Louisiana has rhythm in its blood, and its cooking is just as vibrant: the dishes benefit from the same creative passion as the music. A specially built Osteria on the Piazza New Orleans serves Creole snacks such as po'boys (a typical sandwich) and jambalaya "Ticino-style". As for full Louisiana-style meals, head for the Ristorianti al Pontile & al Piazza or Osteria Nostrana.

Toronto wasn't consulted by province over rollout of controversial new licence plates
Clarrie Feinstein
Feb 20 2020, 7:47 am
Sgt. Steve Koopman / Twitter
Toronto has a new photo radar program that is struggling to get data from the new Ontario licence plates, as they are reportedly hard to read in the dark.
A spokesperson for the City of Toronto said the photo radar program is part of the city's Automated Speed Enforcement (ASE) that captures images of vehicles, licence plates, as well as their speed, if they are violating the laws of the road.
The images are reviewed by Provincial Offense Officers and then tickets are issued to the owner of the vehicle regardless of who is driving.
The spokesperson noted that it is still premature to make a conclusive assessment of the readability of the new licence plates in images captured by speed enforcement and red light camera devices because staff are still collecting data from the new plates.
But, "preliminary data suggests the smaller font size of the jurisdiction name ("Ontario") on the new plates may pose visibility challenges for the cameras during day and night," the spokesperson said.
It was also noted that an officer must be able to identify a vehicle's rear licence plate, including the name of jurisdiction, to lay a charge. This is a requirement to be able to prosecute under the law.
According to the spokesperson, city staff have reported their concerns to the province and are in discussion with them to address the issue.
"The city will be exploring possible solutions with its device vendors if the readability of the new licence plates is confirmed to be an issue," they said. "There were no consultations with the city prior to the rollout of the new plates."
Someone compared Ontario's new licence plate to a box of Q-tips

The licence plates have had a controversial rollout with visibility being the main issue.
Crime Prevention Sergeant Steve Koopman stated in a tweet that the plates were "virtually unreadable at night" asking if anyone consulted with the police before designing the plates.
Ok, this was taken off duty in a relatively well lit parking lot with my headlights on. Did anyone consult with police before designing and manufacturing the new Ontario licence plates? They're virtuallly unreadable at night. pic.twitter.com/CoLxnp3iTQ
— Sgt Steve Koopman (@SgtKoopman) February 16, 2020
His tweet was liked over 4,000 times and retweeted almost 2,000 times, launching the public's awareness of the visibility issues with the new licence plate.
Daily Hive has reached out to the province as well as the manufacturers of the new plates, and will update the story accordingly.

UCS 5.0 status update: Beta Release in December 2020
Ingo Steuwer
Almost exactly one year has passed since the announcement that we are working on UCS 5.0. Since then, we have been very busy and made some important steps towards making UCS a future-proof platform. In December 2020, we intend to make the first results publicly available in a Beta Release. In this article, I would like to give you a first taste of the exciting new features that UCS 5.0 will bring.
New Design and modern Core:
Univention Corporate Server 5.0 has been released
The fifth major release of Univention Corporate Server is ready and available for download. UCS 5.0 contains new features, has a fresh look, comes with several improvements and bug fixes. The new version also uses a new core: UCS 5.0 is based on Debian 10 ("Buster") and Python 3….mehr lesen »
What will be included in the beta release?
The beta release of UCS 5.0 provides an installation medium through which the core functions of UCS can be installed. These include:
• the different system roles
• the directory service
• the web-based management system
• the portal
• essential services (such as Samba 4)
There will also be first apps for UCS 5 – but UCS@school, for example, will not yet be available.
Who is the Beta Release of UCS 5.0 for?
In the beta release, we want to give our technology partners, especially the providers of apps in the AppCenter as well as partners or customers with their extensions for our management system, the opportunity to check the changes to the basis of UCS and start updating their apps and integrations for UCS 5.0. Therefore, the focus of the Beta Release is on updating the base, interfaces, and installation. For example, we will only run extensions ("hooks") for UDM and plugins for the LDAP Listener under Python 3. Based on the Beta Release, we will describe the migration paths.
In its capacity as a Beta Release, it is not intended to be used productively. Nevertheless, we welcome any feedback resulting from testing the new software.
Screenshot showing the current development version of UCS 5.0. More information about the revision of the Look & Feel will follow in a seperate article!
What has changed since UCS 4.x?
We will see changes at very different places directly in UCS and in the apps developed by Univention. With the Beta Release, the focus is on updating the Debian base to the current Debian stable (Buster) and migrating the Univention implementations to Python version 3. But there will already be numerous improvements to the installation, the look & feel and the functionality of the components. The scope is beyond the possibilities of a single blog article; we will report on individual aspects regularly in the upcoming months. You are welcome to subscribe to the RSS feed as well as our newsletter to be informed directly about new articles on UCS 5.0. We will also keep you up to date via Twitter.
During further development, however, we take special care to ensure that, wherever possible, functional improvements only release for UCS 4.4. Examples are the Preview Portal and many things that also appeared with UCS 4.4-6. It is also important to note that upgrading from UCS 4.4 to UCS 5.0 will be possible as usual "in place" meaning without a new installation.
What is the further schedule?
We have invested more time in the work so far than originally planned – it was not only important to us that UCS 4.4 receives further maintenance and functions, but also that UCS 5.0 will be a consistent release. After the beta release, however, we will quickly work and plan on stabilizing the release and providing additional functions or apps to release UCS 5.0 for productive operation in Q1/2021.
Using Linux since 1999, Ingo Steuwer started working at Univention in 2004. As Head of Product Management he focusses on the further development of UCS.
The most important improvement, so my opinion, would: UEFI-Boot!
That's a great wish for 5.0!
We introduced an UEFI installation medium with UCS 3.3-0 (see https://docs.software-univention.de/release-notes-3.3-0-en.html#relnotes:uefi), for UCS 4.4 the standard installation DVD is UEFI compatible (https://docs.software-univention.de/release-notes-3.3-0-en.html#relnotes:uefi). We supported the Debian team to include UEFI in upstream Debian and will move the the upstream capabilities with UCS 5.0.
Do you need additional UEFI support?
In case you have problems with individual installations or detailed questions I suggest to open a thread on help.univention.com.
Hi Ingo,
thank you for your answer!
I know, that the installation medium supports UEFI. But UCS itself doesn't support UEFI-boot.
I have systems, where I can install via DVD but after installation the server doesn't boot. The reason is, that these systems just support UEFI – nothing else. And there's no possibility to change or modify this behavior in Bios.
Then I will hope, that Debian supports this kind of booting soon, that UCS 5.x is able to support it too…

Q: Both have suite cases or a suite case Say there are two people waiting in an airport lobby. Each of them has a suite case. Which is correct - Both have suite cases OR Both have a suite case?

A: According to The Free Dictionary, both indicates that the action or state denoted by the verb applies individually to each of two entities. So the correct sentence is:
Both have a suitcase.
Look at another sentence as follows:
Both of us are married.
The sentence means that each of us is married, not we are married to each other.

A: Both can have either one suitcase or two suitcases as they wish.As you explained that there were two suitcases, you should say "Both have suitcases ".Both =two.

Hybridity on the Ground in Peacebuilding and Development: Critical Conversations
Joanne Wallis, Lia Kent, Miranda Forsyth, Sinclair Dinnen, Srinjoy Bose
Hybridity on the Ground in Peacebuilding and Development engages with the possibilities and pitfalls of the increasingly popular notion of hybridity. The hybridity concept has been embraced by scholars and practitioners in response to the social and institutional complexities of peacebuilding and development practice. In particular, the concept appears well-suited to making sense of the mutually constitutive outcomes of processes of interaction between diverse norms, institutions, actors and discourses in the context of contemporary peacebuilding and development engagements. At the same time, it has been criticised from a variety of perspectives for overlooking critical questions of history, power and scale. The authors in this interdisciplinary collection draw on their indepth knowledge of peacebuilding and development contexts in different parts of Asia, the Pacific and Africa to examine the messy and dynamic realities of hybridity on the ground. By critically exploring the power dynamics, and the diverse actors, ideas, practices and sites that shape hybrid peacebuilding and development across time and space, this book offers fresh insights to hybridity debates that will be of interest to both scholars and practitioners.

THE MISSING EVIDENCE AT LAKE HERMAN ROAD
In a previous article we highlighted a missing casing from the Lake Herman Road police report. It detailed nine shell casings retrieved from the crime scene and sent off for ballistics testing, despite the fact that ten shots were fired that night. Not only did the police sketches depict ten shots within the turnout (9 on the turnout floor and one on the front passenger floorboard of the Rambler), but so did the police report on page six, where it stated '10-shots (2 in car, 5 in back of female victim, 1 in male victim, 2 unaccounted)'. However, on page 9 of the police report it clearly states under #4 and #5 that only nine casings were turned over to responding officers. We know this to be true, because when the shell casings were tested and detailed in the Department of Justice ballistics report, only nine were submitted for examination.
The conclusion, was that coroner Dan Horan and Sergeant Silva only recovered the shell casings from the turnout floor (totaling 9), inadvertently leaving the tenth casing on the front passenger floorboard of the Rambler. This ultimately became separated from the other nine casings and was never sent for ballistics analysis. Therefore, we cannot know with any certainty that this shell casing can be linked to the other nine. It may have been fired from a second weapon or a second shooter. The Department of Justice report also stated that 'All bullets submitted were Western copper coated .22 long rifle bullets, although some were damaged, it was possible to determine ALL but Item [1] had 6 right hand groove class characteristics.' Bearing in mind item [1] was the bullet recovered from David Faraday's head, it therefore cannot be inextricably linked to the other bullets tested. When we consider the position of David Faraday when he was shot in the left side of his head (possibly by a right-handed shooter), it is not inconceivable that the shell casing ejected to the right and rear, into the open passenger side of the Rambler and onto the floorboard. We have an unmatched bullet and a missing shell casing that may be linked, both of which could be attributed to a second shooter. A murderer who may have secured the main threat that night, David Faraday.
How is it possible that during a double homicide investigation, a shell casing pivotal to the case, can 'vanish' between evidence retrieval and the ballistics testing? In addition, wasn't this questioned by either the police or the forensic investigators? To make matters worse, the shell casing wasn't the only crucial piece of evidence to go missing, and raises further questions on the validity of any conclusions drawn from the Lake Herman Road crime scene.
Betty Lou Jensen was shot five times in the back, which is not under dispute. The post mortem revealed that there were three exit wounds, while two bullets remained inside her body. The three exit wounds were described:
[1] The first is over the left interior chest laterally and left margin of the breast, in the 4th intercostal space and 5 and 1/2 inches from the sternum.
[2] The second is in the anterior abdominal wall, below the xyphoid process and 1/2 an inch from the midline.
[3] The third is laterally and 3 and 3/4 inches to the right of the umbilicus.
If there were three exit wounds, why were only two of these bullets described in the police report on page 9, and only two detailed in the Department of Justice report? On page 9 of the police report it clearly states under #2, #3 and #8, the following findings;
#2 Two pellets removed from victim, Betty Lou Jensen, during autopsy.
#3 Pellet found in pants of victim Betty Lou Jensen, at mortuary, during examination of the deceased. The pellet had entered the lower back, coursed through her body, emerging under the waist band elastic of her panties, where it was found.
#8 Pellet recovered near victim Betty Lou Jensen in blood spattered path on her attempted escape route. Pellet entered her body in the back and emerged from the center of her stomach and dropped to the ground without penetrating the front of her dress.
This describes only four of the five bullets fired into Betty Lou Jensen. Two were recovered from her body at autopsy, one bullet was found in her panties and one bullet was found along her flight path on the gravel turnout. So where is the fifth bullet?
The investigation described ten shell casings apparent in the Lake Herman Road turnout, and the police report on page six accepted ten shots were fired, but again, only seven of the eight bullets accounted for reached the ballistics laboratory for testing.
Below are the items submitted for testing, as reported by the Department of Justice. As one can see, only seven bullets were submitted, whereas above we clearly have eight.
The police report states that two bullets were unaccounted for (presumably the missed shots that night) - but now we have three unaccounted for, including the one that exited Betty Lou Jensen. That is two key pieces of ballistic evidence currently missing in relation to the crime scene at Lake Herman Road.
The Department of Justice report has two important pieces of information. Firstly, it states 'Intercomparison of the cartridge cases in items 4 and 5 indicates that all are probably fired in the same weapon and all are the same make and type of ammunition. Due to lack of sufficient unique structure it appears that considerable difficulty will be encountered in identifying the responsible weapon if it should be recovered.' The cartridge cases, in essence, could be used to rule out a particular gun, which they did many times, including the weapons of Robert Connelly and James Owen, but could not be used to definitively rule a gun into the murders 'due to lack of sufficient unique structure'. This means that more than one gun may have been used in the Lake Herman Road murders of David Faraday and Betty Lou Jensen, or possibly several. Secondly, the ballistics report states 'All bullets submitted were Western copper coated .22 Long Rifle bullets. Each of these was microscopically compared with the others, but in no case was an absolutely positive identification possible. This is apparently due to the condition of the rifle barrel, which does not leave coarse structures on bullets fired therein, as well as the effect of the copper coating on the bullet. From our examination it appears that a conclusive identification of the responsible weapon, will be extremely difficult, if not impossible, even if it should be recovered.' Therefore, in theory, there could be two or more weapons involved, concerning multiple shooters, and any suspect weapon recovered could not be fired and provide 'a conclusive identification.' In fact, it 'will be extremely difficult, if not impossible.' This coupled with the 'lack of sufficient unique structure' of the cartridge cases, means that all of the bullets and cartridge cases could have been the product of one person or many people. All that a ballistics comparison can do in respect to the Lake Herman Road murders, is simply rule out a particular weapon. There may well have been one assailant at Lake Herman Road on December 20th 1968, but all other possibilities cannot be ruled out on the basis of the evidence presented.

All excellent points, Richard. Let's also note that sadly, the worst contaminators or spoilers of crime scenes are cops! I would almost say many cops "back then" wouldn't pass muster by today's standards. Except, nowadays, investigators all rely on science and very few know how to do old fashioned "gumshoe" type detective work.

Child marriage has become less common in America. But it still exists – The Economist
SEXUAL mores change faster than the law does. This has been the case with child marriage, which is generally defined as involving those under 18 but also includes girls (for almost all of them are girls) younger than 16. Depending on the law in different states, older men are allowed to marry minors if they get parental consent, a judge's approval, or even just the nod of a clerk. Stories about the Republican candidate for the vacant Alabama senate seat, Roy Moore, and his pursuit of teenage girls when he was more than double their age have caused disgust, at least among those who believe the accusers. Legally, though, Mr Moore could almost certainly have married even his 14-year-old accuser had he wished to do so, since at the time 14 was the minimum age for marriage under Alabama state law (it is now 16).
America has always allowed such child marriages, which happen mostly in conservative religious communities and rural areas. Yet, as in the rest of the world, the practice has become much less common. Whereas 23,500 minors got married in 2000, by 2010 the number had dropped to a little over 9,000, reflecting changing social norms, higher rates of school attendance for girls and a decline in marriage more generally. Virginia, Texas and New York have introduced laws in the past couple of years that restrict marriage to legal adults. Connecticut has banned marriage before the age of 16. In 11 other states legislation restricting child marriage is in the pipeline; six of these (Arizona, Florida, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Pennsylvania) are considering a law to ban marriage under 18 with no exceptions.

From Mr Gregory Peck to Mr David Beckham, the short back and sides haircut has had a starring role in every decade over the past 50 years. It's the simplicity and versatility that has seen it stand the test of time. But, as with any classic, there are new twists that can bring it up to date.
"Its popularity is down to how low-maintenance it is," explains session stylist Mr Tyler Johnston, who has been maintaining the manes of London's most stylish men (including Messrs Beckham and Liam Gallagher) for the past 15 years.
"If you have a great technical haircut like this, you'll be able to wash it, dry it and style it with minimal time and effort," Mr Johnston says.
Looking around the MR PORTER offices, nearly 80 per cent of the male staff have opted for the short, back and sides in some form or other this season. But look a little closer and you notice all sorts of variations of the theme going on, from blends to beards. "It's a flattering haircut on anyone – you can play around with it to suit your face shape." With that in mind, we challenged Mr Johnston to tidy up the cuts of seven of MR PORTER's staff, taking hair type and face shape into account.

Living the Legacy: Keeping the Comanche Language and Culture Alive
Moribund: In terminal decline; lacking vitality or vigor. (Oxford Dictionary)
"Languages across the world are in crisis. Half of the world's languages are "moribund, spoken only by adults who no longer teach them to the next generation." The language loss among North American indigenous people is "especially acute," where an estimated 155 languages are still spoken, if you add in the Alaskan Native languages. Of these 135 are moribund; and the U.S. Census of 1990 indicated that one-third of these have fewer than 100 speakers. "Native American Language Immersion: Innovative Native Education for Children and Families" Pease Pretty On Top, J.
Terry and her Mom, Geneva Woomavoyah Navarro
My mother, Geneva Woomavoyah Navarro, was born in the small town of Apache, Oklahoma in 1926. She was born to Esther Tooahimpah Tate and Max Woomavoyah, and is a full blood Comanche. She was raised by her maternal grandparents, Frank and Mookemah Nevaquaya. Geneva grew up to be their English interpreter as neither one spoke English for as long as they lived. My great-grandfather was "granted" several acres of land due to the Dawes Act of l887 (Allotment Act) in which Native people were "given" land. In the case of my relatives; this happened after they were released from their captivity and imprisonment by the U.S. government during the Native American holocaust in this country. Though the Comanche were not farming people; they were expected to leave their nomadic ways and become sedentary and settle into that lifestyle, which many did.
Geneva grew up with Numunu (Comanche) as her first language. She lived with her large extended family all under one roof for several years. Many of her aunts and uncles went to boarding school at St. Patrick's Mission in Anadarko, Oklahoma. Geneva's grandmother did not want her sent away. She has said many times that her grandparents would have been happy to have her stay at home with them and not attend school at all. Her aunts and uncles would relate the harsh punishment and strict regimen of the boarding schools to their family. Though all the children were fluent, they also began to speak English when they would return home. Her grandmother would become agitated and hit the table with a spoon because she couldn't understand her children. "Ketha thivo tekwap! Numu tekwap!" (Don't talk like the white man! Speak Comanche!) she would say. Reluctantly, my mother was sent to the local public school for a general education. She recalls how her grandmother would ask her many questions about her day when she would return home.
One of her favorite stories is about the use of the chalk board. She told her grandmother that the teacher had a special pencil and wrote all over the wall and even would sometimes allow the children to write on the wall, as well. Her grandmother told her, "Don't you bring that pencil home!" She would read to her grandparents out of her history books. One time she was reading about Indian people to them. Her grandfather told her, "Those are lies! You rip those pages out of that book!" She told him that she could not tear her school book up. He was terribly angry about how the Indians were being written about in the texts she was using.
When Geneva was sixteen, her beloved grandmother became ill with tuberculosis and died. She had gone up to her junior year in high school. Her grandfather told her that she could quit school if she wanted to. However, her stepfather disagreed and convinced her grandfather to send her to Haskell Institute; present day Haskell Indian Nations University, Lawrence, Kansas. She attended classes and enjoyed her time there, studying nursing. From there, she went to St. Anthony's Nursing School (Oklahoma) where she enrolled into the nursing program and became a registered nurse. Once in a while, she talks about her experience with racism. Her non-Native roommate was scared of her because she was a Comanche and would not room with Geneva because she was afraid of getting attacked by a "wild Indian".
After finishing her training, she was sent to Keams Canyon, Arizona and worked among the Hopi and Navajo people. During this period of time, the job location was chosen and if one wanted to work, they were sent out by the agency. She talks about being there during the l940's when there were no paved roads and she was taken to the job in a wagon on the dirt roads.
Geneva was a nurse for forty years in both IHS hospitals and public hospitals. After Arizona, she relocated to California, and then back to Oklahoma again. She worked as a head nurse at the city hospital in Anadarko, helping to desegregate the hospital during the early 1979's when many in Oklahoma were very prejudiced. She was a school nurse for the Anadarko Public Schools, and then worked for several years at the Lawton Indian Hospital. She then returned to Keams Canyon after her children were grown and married. From there, she took a position as the director of nurses in Santa Fe, N.M. with the Santa Fe Indian Hospital. Geneva ended her nursing career in l986, when she retired at the age of 60. It was during this time in her early retirement that she became involved in being a docent at a museum in Santa Fe. She was increasingly aware that there were fewer Comanche speakers. Most fluent speakers were elders and many were passing away and taking their knowledge with them.
"Karen Washinawatok, the Director of the Menominee Language and Culture Commission also reinforced this point during our interview when she said: "That's why knowing our language is so important, because it teaches us who we are; it's not just a set of words. It's about our history, it's about our heritage, it's about our way of life that our ancestors have fought and died for." The Bias of English Dominance. McDermott, B. 2014
Geneva became a language activist, working with the Indigenous Language Institute in Santa Fe. She also began language classes in Albuquerque and in Santa Fe for those Comanche people in the area who wanted to learn and practice the language. Along with Inee Yang Slaughter (Indigenous Language Institute) and others, in 1998, she helped to establish a language fair in Santa Fe and at the University of Oklahoma, Norman, Oklahoma. The Annual Native Language Youth Fair was created for young speakers of Native languages who competed in different categories which encouraged them to practice their distinct languages.
In 2003, at age 77, Geneva testified for the Native American Languages Act before the Committee on Indian Affairs and the U.S. Senate. This hearing was to amend the Native American Language Act and provide for the support of Native American languages and for survival schools. She received the Indigenous Language Institute award, "Those Who Make a Difference" in 2005.
After moving back to Oklahoma with her youngest daughter, Geneva became an adjunct traditional language instructor at the Comanche Nation Tribal College and also taught the language at the Comanche daycare center. She helped to create The Comanche Dictionary. Geneva also won a second major award, the Oklahoma Spirit Award, in 2005. She gradually moved back to N.M., and resumed teaching the language to urban community members.
Geneva traveled to many areas of the world and always found opportunity for our language and has informed others in various parts of the world of our beloved language and culture. She has traveled to Mexico, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Paris, Jerusalem, Bosnia, England, and extensively throughout the U.S. She always represents the Comanche people by speaking our language and telling others about the history of the Comanche. She is also a traditional dancer who can often be seen in her buckskin dress at powwows. As one of the most respected elders of our Native community; today she is still in high demand as a speaker or as one who prays and gives blessings in our language at various events. Nearing 88 years old, she is constantly on the go. Among her greatest admirers are her four children, ten grandchildren, thirteen great-grandchildren, and one great-great grandson.
November is Native American Heritage Month, preferably referred to as American Indian & Alaska Native Heritage Month.

Does your car insurance have split limits or a combined single limit?
You probably have split limits. It's the most common type of automobile insurance coverage.
The state minimum insurance is represented as split limits: $25,000/$50,000/$15,000.
The first number represents the most an insurance company will pay out to any one individual that the insured injures in a car accident. This would be for bodily injury, pain and suffering and lost wages.
The second number represents the most an insurance company will pay out for the entire accident, regardless of how many people are injured.
The third number is the maximum the insurance company will pay for property damage — most commonly damage you cause to another person's car. But it could also be a building, a road sign, a house or any other property damaged during an accident.
Nobody should carry state-minimum insurance limits, and we rarely allow people to purchase state-minimum insurance unless there is a very specific and legitimate reason.
Combined single limit (CSL) simply means you have one limit and both bodily injury and property damage will come from that pool of money.
If you have $100,000 CSL and you cause an auto accident where three people are injured and two cars are totaled, all injuries and property damages will come from the $100,000 limit — an amount that's definitely better than state minimum insurance because, in a worst case scenario, $90,000 would be paid out with state minimum liability ($25,000+$50,000+$15,000). But, for this to occur, you would have had to caused bodily injury to two different people and do severe damage to a vehicle.
Another example. How does a $250,000/$500,000/$100,000 split limit compare to a $500,000 Combined Single Limit?
While on the surface, it appears that $250/500/100 is better because $850,000 could potentially pay out. But, in this case, I believe a $500,000 CSL better protects you and gives you more flexibility.
Why? Because most vehicles only have one occupant. If you hit a single-occupant vehicle, the maximum a $250/500/100 split-limit policy will pay out is $350,000 because the second number only comes into play if more than one person is injured.
Another example. If you hit a pedestrian, a $500,000 CSL would pay out up to $500,000 whereas a $250/500/100 split-limits policy would pay out a maximum of $250,000.
Many of our clients have $500/500/500 limits, which in every instance is better than or equal to $500,000 CSL. However, the cost savings of $500,000 CSL is often enough to make one consider the pros and cons.
Property damage losses are normally less than $50,000 and rarely near $500,000. So, if you figure that most property damage claims are under $50,000, the difference between $500/500/500 and $500 CSL might only be $50,000. One way to alleviate this loss of coverage is by adding or increasing your umbrella policy. A $500 CSL policy with an umbrella is always better than a $500/500/500 spit-limits policy without an umbrella.
So what's better? Split limit or combined single limit? It just depends on the limits you're looking at. This can all be confusing. Questions about what kind of car insurance you should have? Give us a call at 303-922-1001 and we'll be happy to answer your questions and help you decide.

Edward G. McLaughlin
August 22, 1932 - May 1, 2021
The M Factor closed up shop today, after more than 60 years of unflinching service to anyone who needed help. "He could fix anything" is how he was spoken of by all who knew him. M Factor hallmarks included his unlimited patience, friendliness, care for others and extraordinary mechanical aptitude. Edward G. (Eddie George) McLaughlin passed away peacefully Saturday, May 1, 2021, after a brief illness. He was 88. He is survived by his wife of 65 years Claudia (Polosky) and 4 children, Faith (Tom) Herrington, Ed (Beth) McLaughlin, Tim (Lisa) McLaughlin and Ken McLaughlin; 13 grandchildren, Heather (Carl), Mike (Ashley), Dan (Brittany), Rachel (Josh), Dave (Kristy) Steve, Nick, Megan (Mike), Kevin, Matt, Leo, Molly and Marcus. Ed and Claudia also love 7 great-grandchildren, Jaxon, Xander, Ronan, Wylder, Cambria, Kennedy and Payton. Also survived by his brother, Bob and wife Sally who reside in Tempe Arizona. He is also loved by a multitude of nieces and nephews. For 40 years Dad blessed the railroad industry and Union Switch and Signal with uncommon intelligence, creativity, and work ethic, eventually earning the position of Director of Quality Assurance. During his tenure at "The Switch", he traveled the world and worked domestically on Chicago's "Loop", NYC Transit "MTA", San Francisco's "BART" and more. Dad had many patents, contractually submitted through USandS. As a father, Dad shared in the interests of each of his children, science, music, sports, camping, hunting, canoeing and racing. He especially loved going to Indy in May, usually for the Time Trials. After the children were raised, and called by the company, Ed and Claudia moved to Columbia, South Carolina, where Dad realized his lifelong dream of learning to fly. Mom and Dad shared the tremendous challenge of VFR certification, both earning pilot licenses. They loved flying together, eventually home to Pittsburgh. His hobbies included concrete, clocks, computers, auto repair, and upgrading his kid's homes. After retirement, Mom and Dad returned to their Penn Hills home, where they enjoyed more than 20 years together. Heaven must have needed lots of stuff fixed, so God called home his specialist. We will miss him greatly. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to Samaritan's Purse, Compassion International, or your local animal shelter. Private family service to be held at a future date.

Q: Generate Correct JSON from Java Object - Jackson I have following result for the query select * from student where courseName = 'Science';
Results:
student_id | name   | points | course_name   | course_id |
+----------+--------+--------+---------------+-----------+
       1107| Matt   |   3000 |     Science  |    10     |
|      1108| Charley|  12348 |     Science  |    20     |

2 rows in set, 2 warnings (0.00 sec)

Part of Implementation code currently looks like :
List<StudentDetails> studentDetailss = StudentDetailsRepository
    .findByCourseId(Request.getCourseId());
List<Student> student = new ArrayList<>();
List<Item> studentList = new ArrayList<>();
Response response = new Response();

for (StudentDetails student : studentDetailss) {
  IndividualItem studentItem = new IndividualItem();
  studentItem.setId(student.getId());

  Offer offer = new Offer();
  offer.setName(studentDetailss.getName());
  offer.setTotalPoints(studentDetailss.getPoints());
  offer.setCourseName(studentDetailss.getCourseName());
  offer.setCourseId(studentDetailss.getCourseId());

  Student.add(offer);
  studentItem.setOfferList(Student);
  studentList.add(studentItem);
  Response.setItems(studentList);
    }

json_text = mapper.writeValueAsString(Response);

Above code prints the wrong JSON like :
 {"items":[{"id":"1107","details":[{"name":"Matt", "points":3000,"course_name":"Science","course_id":10},{"name": "Charley",points":12348,"course_name":"Science","course_id":20}]},{"id":"1108","details":[{"name":"Matt", "points":3000,"course_name":"Science","course_id":10},{"name": "Charley",points":12348,"course_name":"Science","course_id":20}]}]}

But I need to generate following JSON instead of the above one :
 {"items":[{"id":"1107","details":[{"name":"Matt", "points":3000,"course_name":"Science","course_id":10}]},{"id":"1108","details":[{"name": "Charley",points":12348,"course_name":"Science","course_id":20}]}]}

(Note : It is not the real code - just a sample of the code)

A: The above problem was solved by initializing the array list 'student' inside the for loop:
The code changed like :
List<StudentDetails> studentDetailss = StudentDetailsRepository
    .findByCourseId(Request.getCourseId());
List<Item> studentList = new ArrayList<>();
Response response = new Response();

for (StudentDetails student : studentDetailss) {
  IndividualItem studentItem = new IndividualItem();
  studentItem.setId(student.getId());

  Offer offer = new Offer();
  offer.setName(studentDetailss.getName());
  offer.setTotalPoints(studentDetailss.getPoints());
  offer.setCourseName(studentDetailss.getCourseName());
  offer.setCourseId(studentDetailss.getCourseId());

  Student.add(offer);
  studentItem.setOfferList(Student);
  studentList.add(studentItem);
  Response.setItems(studentList);
    }

json_text = mapper.writeValueAsString(Response);


Sachin Tendulkar earned income of Rs. 80 crore in 2017-18 as per the Forbes India Celebrity 100 list issued by Forbes.
Sachin Tendulkar's income, Net Worth are of great interest to all of us.
This is because he has inspired all of us with his stellar role as a cricketer and for doing social service.
Usually, getting access to the income and net worth details of celebrities like Sachin Tendular is difficult.
However, now an official order of the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) is available which reveals confidential information about the income and net worth of Sachin Tendulkar.
According to the order of the Tribunal dated 10th August 2018, Tendulkar filed a return of income in which he declared an income of Rs. 61,23,14,400 (Rs. 61 crore).
This income was declared for the assessment year 2012-13.
The order also discloses information about Sachin Tendulkar's net worth.
He owns two properties in Pune, i.e., flat at Saphire Park and flat in Treasure park costing Rs.60,60,000/- and Rs.82,80,750/- respectively.
The property situated in Treasure Park was let out for 9 months at Rs.15,000 per month.
He also owns a palatial flat in Bandra, Mumbai, where he resides with his family.
The Income-tax Officer computed Tendulkar's income by estimating the rental income at 6% of the value of both the fiats aggregating to Rs.1,43,40,750/- (Rs.82,80,750 + 60,60,000) as deemed rental income.
Sachin Tendulkar's current income in 2018 will be in excess of Rs. 100 crore.
We can confidently make this estimate because the official order of the ITAT discloses that Sachin Tendulkar's income for AY 2012-13 is Rs. 61 crore.
It is obvious that with the passage of time, there will also be an increase in the income, especially given the popularity of the person.
Sachin Tendulkar's net worth is in excess of Rs. 500 crore.
This estimate can be made because Tendulkar has been earning high income after paying taxes of about Rs. 70 crore for the past several years. This is invested in a prudent manner in real estate property, stocks of companies and securities issued by the Government and RBI.
These investments would have also multiplied over the years and contributed to the increase in the net worth and income of Sachin Tendulkar.
The IE reported that Sachin Tendulkar has received Rs 90 lakh in salaries and other monthly allowances during his tenure as Rajya Sabha MP.
He donated this salary and income to the Prime Minister's Relief Fund.
Sachin Tendulkar ranks 5th in the Forbes top 100 India Celebrities list.
His earnings in 2017 was reported at Rs 82.5 crore.
In 2016, he had earned income of Rs 58 crore.
He ranks No. 2 in the sports list of Forbes.
Sachin Tendulkar has endorsement deals with a number of popular brands such as BMW India, Coca Cola and Adidas.
These brands pay him crores of rupees to endorse their products and make them popular with his fans.
Sachin has a number of business interests as well.
He is the co-owner of an ISL franchise named 'Kerala Blasters' and 'Bengaluru Blasters'.
These are lucrative franchises in the Premier Badminton League.
He also owns two hotels and a restaurant in Mumbai in partnership with other business people.
He also runs an entertainment company named 'Smaaash Entertainment'.
Smaaash Entertainment raised $ 5 million in investment and is valued at about $100 million.
According to the ET, Sachin Tendulkar's net worth is in excess of Rs. 1000 crore.
He has amassed a fortune that eclipses the combined net worth of the four other cricketers on the list, and is more than three times the net worth of M. S. Dhoni, the next wealthiest player.
In the list of top five wealthiest Indian cricketers, Tendulkar is at the top with a net worth of $160 mn followed by Mahendra Singh Dhoni at $50 mn, Yuvraj Singh at $30 mn, Rahul Dravid at $20 mn and Virat Kohli at $15 mn.
