About Seats
The Mercedes-Benz individual seat gives you a car seat designed to fit the make and model of your car. Individual seats are usually positioned in the front or rear of the car, to enable the driver or front and rear passengers to sit comfortably while travelling.
There are two main types of seating in most vehicles. The individual or bucket seat which are contoured to take one person, and the bench seat which will accommodate two or even three people. Usually bucket seats occupy the front of the vehicle and bench seats the rear. The rear seats can often be folded down when not in use to create extra luggage space. In addition there are some estate cars that have one or two rear-facing children's seats that can be folded away when not in use.
The seats in a car are important for reasons of safety, comfort and health. Whether making a short trip to the local shop or travelling long distances in your car it's important the seats provide support, comfort and functionality. Car seats are generally covered in leather, cloth or synthetic materials like neoprene or synthetic leather. The material used to cover car seats should be strong, tough, practical, comfortable, long lasting, easy to clean, aesthetically pleasing and should match the rest of the car's interior.
The Mercedes-Benz individual seat can be fitted with a head rest to support the head and neck while travelling in the car, helping to keep the head upright, offering comfort and reducing head and neck pain. It also provides safety in a crash situation by supporting the head and neck to minimise injury. The Mercedes-Benz individual seat will offer back support too. The seats in a car can have an armrest fixed to them for increased comfort which can be folded away when not required. Cup-holders are also available as part of the armrests on some models. Some car seats offer lumbar support which provides added support and comfort to the back while travelling. All cars are required to have seatbelts fitted for all seats and is considered as the Primary Restraint System. They are paramount to safety when travelling in the car.
You may need to replace an individual seat because your car has been in an accident and the seat has suffered damage or you may want to customise and personalise the interior of your car with a different seat. Perhaps the Mercedes-Benz individual seat has seen better days and coming to the end of its working life. It's important to choose the right car seat that will fit properly and function well. Specifically designed for the make and model of your car, the Mercedes-Benz individual seat is the right choice.
Mercedes-Benz trivia
Mercedes are responsible for a lot of 'firsts' in their long history, including the world's first production of a diesel car. Very impressive, but it only had three wheels. Production stopped pretty quickly in the late 1950s.
We all recognise that distinctive Mercedes logo, but did you know that the three points of the star represent air, land, and water? There was a point where they considered adding another point to represent space, but they decided against it in the end.
Most people think of silver when they think of a Mercedes, but that iconic colour was an accident. Just before a race in 1934, the white-painted W25 was found to be 1kg over the weight limit. The paint was quickly removed, the weight limit reached, and the car won the race.
Nepal had very few roads at the time, but the car company still gifted a shiny new Merc to the king of the country in 1940. It was the first car that had ever been in Nepal!
Karl Benz founded the famous car company. He is not only credited as the maker of the world's first practical motorcar but also has the distinction of being the first person ever issued with a driving license (local citizens kept complaining about the noise and smell of his Motorwagen, and so he needed written permission to drive it).

Макс Борн () е германски физик и математик, носител на Нобелова награда за физика за 1954 г., считан за един от основателите на квантовата механика и създател (заедно с Макс фон Лауе) на теорията на кристалната решетка. Чуждестранен член-кореспондент на РАН и почетен член на АН на СССР.

Негова внучка е известната актриса и певица Оливия Нютън-Джон (1948 – 2022).

Биография
Роден е на 11 декември 1882 година в Бреслау, Германска империя (днес Вроцлав, Полша), най-голямото от двете деца в семейството на еврейския ембриолог Густав Борн (1850 – 1900), професор по анатомия на Университета в Бреслау, и Маргарет Кауфман (1856 – 1886), талантлива пианистка. Още в ранна възраст Борн се интересува много от математика и физика. През 1901 г. се записва да следва в Университета в Бреслау, но през 1904 решава да продължи образованието си в Гьотингенския университет, където е силно повлиян от най-известните математици за това време Давид Хилберт, Феликс Клайн и Херман Имот,

По време на Първата световна война Борн прави изследвания и оценки на изобретенията в областта на артилерията. Точно тогава започва и приятелство му с Айнщайн. Борн заимства много идеи от Айнщайн и теорията на относителността и създава нов опростен метод за изчисляване на масата на електрона.

През 1907 г. става професор и преподава в университетите във Франкфурт на Майн, Гьотинген и Единбург. През 1932 става декан на научния факултет в Гьотинген. След идването на Хитлер на власт този факултет престава да съществува и Борн се мести в Англия, където преподава в Кеймбриджкия университет.

През 1954 г. става носител на Нобелова награда за физика за фундаментални изследвания по квантова механика, особено за неговата статистическа интерпретация на вълновата функция.

Умира на 5 януари 1970 година в Гьотинген на 87-годишна възраст.

Back Pain Relief Tip Of The Week - Exercise!
This week's Back Pain Relief Tip is about Exercise, which can be good for your back. Some people may think that is crazy, especially those suffering with back pain, but it's true! Most people assume that exercising with back pain would only make the injury worse, but this is not usually the case. In fact, it helps strengthen your back which can relieve pain!
Obviously, there are some limitations as to how much exercise each individual person can do. If someone's back pain is severe, they may not be able to exercise as much as someone whose injury is relatively minor. The amount of exercise a person is capable of depends on the cause and severity of their back pain. The goal should be to exercise as much as you are safely able to without making the problem worse. Just BE CAREFUL and DON'T OVERDO IT!
We are going to focus on two forms of low impact exercise that are good for your back: swimming and light walking.
Swimming - The pool is a great place to relieve stress on your back while also strengthening the muscles in the spine, because swimming is not a weight bearing activity. By eliminating the pressure on your back you lessen your pain, which should make it easier to move around and make you better able to exercise in the pool. Try to go swimming at least once a week if possible.
Walking - Your goal should be to take a brisk 20 minute walk each day. If you can't walk for that long, walk as much as you can at first until your back gets used to the activity. Then slowly increase the amount of time you walk for. If you can't walk the whole 20 minutes all at once, break it up. Walk for 10 minutes in the morning and 10 more in the evening.
By doing these simple, low-impact exercises, you can help strengthen the muscles around the area of your back injury, reducing stress on the discs in the spine and alleviating pain!


Deep indigo blue with a hand painted design gives this bedding a bit of an eclectic Bohemian vibe. Keep it clean and simple, or add some color to brighten up your space. Either way, it will be your most timeless yet funky piece.

The Baruch Padeh Poriya Medical Center The First Government Medical Center
Awarded an International Standards
Seal of Approval for Quality and Safety
In June 2013, the Hospital was awarded the JCI Organization's International Standards Seal of Approval for Quality and Safety after two and half years of demanding and intensive work. This is how it began:
The Director of the Medical Center - A visionary and instigator who decided to plunge into the freezing water and to be the pioneer of the process amongst the Government hospitals.
JCI- An international organization that has set its sights on raising the level of quality and safety at medical facilities throughout the world. The objective of the Organization is to continually and lastingly improve the quality and safety of treatment of the patient in the international community. The Organization has been in existence for more than 75 years and is the largest accreditation organization for health care institutions in the USA.
The Accreditation Process- Is implemented by means of a manuscript of standards consisting of 14 chapters, 300 standards and some 1,300 measurable elements. Each chapter, each standard and each element is measurable and garners points and the total points constitute the grade for obtaining the standards seal of approval.
Passing Grade; 90% and over!!!
The process was kicked off at a festive launch evening at Kfar Hittim, where we tasted of the best the place has to offer and we listened to the fascinating, hilarious and distressing lecture given by the Director of the Carmel Hospital, shortly before their summation inspection.
We set off on our quest after a JCI run workshop, the selection of 13 work teams - the majority of which were made up of employees of the Medical Center, who voluntarily joined in the process, and making contact with our team of consultants acting on behalf of the Organization.
Our Medical Center was the pioneer and the leader from amongst the Government hospitals who participated in the process, in all the advisory tests and inspections carried out by the JCI Organization.
December 2010- The first advisory inspection - which we passed with considerable organizational success, but with a great deal of work to follow. The kick off slogan we coined was: "Soon we will go far" .
Over the two and half years, hundreds of meetings were held with team leaders, hospital committees, the hospital management team and departmental team meetings. Some 60 new procedures were drawn up, existing procedures were revamped, training sheets for all the departments were updated, department data sheets were drawn up, booklets relating to patients' rights were produced, a pocket manual on the subject of accreditation was published, posters about the hospital's vision and personal hygiene were printed and distributed and working documents were drawn up for use by personnel throughout the hospital. Dozens of documents were translated into 3 languages.
October 2011 - The second advisory inspection, after which the continuation slogan was coined: " Almost officially happy" .
July 2012 - A dry run inspection, which determined conclusively that the preparations are bearing fruit and that the Hospital is ready, willing and able to undergo the summation inspection. Throughout the process, many knowledge inspections were conducted at the Medical Center.
The Director of the Medical Center, his Deputy, the Nursing Director and the Deputy Administration Director carried out inspections on a daily basis in all departments, questioned doctors, nurses, ancillary personnel, housekeeping staff, para medical personnel, administrative personnel, etc.
Nurses in charge of wards carried out initiated inspections in their wards and mutually executed inspections of other wards.
Inspections - Over the 3 months prior to the summation inspection, inspection were held every day, in all shifts, carried out by senior teams at the Medical Center.
The Summation Inspection - Was conducted from June 16 to June 20 for 5 days, with 3 inspectors, taking up 120 hours of checking, inspecting and control.
On the 12th of Tammuz - June 20, we were informed that the Medical Center passed the inspection with flying colors and an announcement was blared out:

Embraer Defense & Security and its partner Sierra Nevada Corporation (SNC) were awarded a contract to deliver 12 A-29 Super Tucano light attack aircraft to the Nigerian Air Force.
"SNC is proud to work with our partner, Embraer Defense & Security, to build A-29s in support of the Nigerian Air Force in addressing their on-going training and security needs," said Taco Gilbert, Senior Vice President of ISR, Aviation and Security (IAS) at SNC.
"The combat-proven A-29 is designed and built for the mission in Nigeria. It's the most reliable and cost-effective solution for basic and advanced flight and combat training, close air support operations, ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance), counterinsurgency and irregular warfare scenarios."
The A-29 is conducting combat missions on a daily basis in theatres around the world. It has more than 46,000 combat hours and more than 360,000 total flight hours. With the Nigeria order, the A-29 is the choice of 14 air forces worldwide.
In addition to its combat record, the A-29's robust landing gear and enhanced clearance enable take-off and landing in even the most austere field conditions. The aircraft also offers exceptional dependability and accuracy in weapons delivery, making it highly effective in the light attack role.
The contract for the Nigerian Air Force includes ground training devices, mission planning systems, mission debrief systems, spares, ground support equipment, alternate mission equipment, contiguous US interim contractor support, outside of continental US (OCONUS) contractor logistic support and field service representatives for OCONUS support.

Posh up your pizza with these super-trendy toppings
Claire Louise Sheridan
london italian pizza gourmet trends truffle cheese sausage
Anyone who's anyone knows that your basic pizzas rarely cut it anymore. Sure, they're nice for when you're in a hurry. But when you've time to indulge, why not go all out?
It's not just about the toppings, it's about the ways they're prepared. We all want to eat fresh, fun – and fabulous. Thanks to the range of pizza takeaways in London now, this is more than possible.
In fact, Italian food is having a resurgence up and down the country. There are some incredible Italian restaurants all over the UK. Thank the pizza gods, right? We were getting a little bit sick of getting served up something greasy and soggy…
1. Quartieri: Mozzarella di bufala
Mozzarella di bufala features extensively throughout the menu at Quartieri in Kilburn. On La Regina, you'll find a twist on your classic cheese pizza, as it's served up with tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil, and basil. Hailing from Campania, this cheese also works well on the Black Truffle pizza special – in fact, with truffle oil and mushrooms, that's where it really comes into its own.
A post shared by Quartieri (@quartierilondon) on Nov 11, 2017 at 11:06am PST
2. Pizza Pilgrims: Portobello Mushroom and Truffle
Speaking of mushroom and truffle, yeah, they're really trending right now. The combination works really well on pizza, as Pizza Pilgrims have discovered. Throw some parmesan cheese and a little basil into the mix – literally – and this entire pizza goes down a treat. The herbs add flavour, but honestly, the mushrooms and oils do enough by themselves.
A post shared by pizzapilgrims (@pizzapilgrims) on Nov 5, 2017 at 3:20am PST
3. Zia Lucia: Arianna
The Arianna pizza at Zia Lucia is the star of the show here, and it's so easy to see why. Topped with fresh sausage, taleggio goat cheese, pecorino cheese, truffle honey and olive paté, it's hard to say which of these is the best option on its own. But here, they're not meant to stand alone. Each of these ingredients have been selected to complement one another perfectly.
A post shared by Zia Lucia (@zialuciapizza) on Oct 6, 2017 at 6:54am PDT
4. The Dynamo: Sa Calobra
Sa Calobra from The Dynamo is a real winner, and it's no secret as to why. Featuring tomato, Fior di Latte mozzarella, fennel salami, Luganica sausage, red onion and pistachio. Of course, perhaps the most intriguing of all of these is the Luganica sausage, a delicacy from Northern Italy. Once you try it, you won't want any other kind of pork on your pizza, ever again!
A post shared by Trail Runner | Foodie (@healthykbtrails) on Sep 25, 2017 at 12:11pm PDT
5. Theo's: Ndjua Sausage
You've probably seen Ndjua on many menus lately, and Theo's is in on that craze. As if their wood-fired pizzas weren't uber-delicious enough already, this is the icing on the cake (or the sausage on the pizza). We might have lied when we said you won't want anything pork based again. It's a toss-up between Ndjua sausage and the Luganica sausage – they're both so different though, that we don't have to choose!
When you know you want pizza but you don't know where from, you'll be absolutely spoiled for choice on Deliveroo.

Inference to the best explanation: does it track truth?
Synthese 185 (3): 411-427. 2012.
In the form of inference known as inference to the best explanation there are various ways to characterise what is meant by the best explanation. This paper considers a number of such characterisations including several based on confirmation measures and several based on coherence measures. The goal is to find a measure which adequately captures what is meant by 'best' and which also yields the truth with a high degree of probability.

In the form of inference known as inference to the best explanation there are various ways to characterise what is meant by the best explanation. This paper considers a number of such characterisations including several based on confirmation measures and several based on coherence measures. The goal is to find a measure which adequately captures what is meant by 'best' and which also yields the truth with a high degree of probability. Computer simulations are used to show that the overlap coherence measure achieves this goal, enabling the true explanation to be identified almost as often as an approach which simply selects the most probable explanation. Further advantages to this approach are also considered in the case where there is uncertainty in the prior probability distribution
ConfirmationProbabilistic Frameworks
Coherence measures and inference to the best explanation
This paper considers an application of work on probabilistic measures of coherence to inference to the best explanation. Rather than considering information reported from different sources, as is usually the case when discussing coherence measures, the approach adopted here is to use a coherence measure to rank competing explanations in terms of their coherence with a piece of evidence. By adopting such an approach IBE can be made more precise and so a major objection to this mode of reasoning c…Read more
This paper considers an application of work on probabilistic measures of coherence to inference to the best explanation. Rather than considering information reported from different sources, as is usually the case when discussing coherence measures, the approach adopted here is to use a coherence measure to rank competing explanations in terms of their coherence with a piece of evidence. By adopting such an approach IBE can be made more precise and so a major objection to this mode of reasoning can be addressed. Advantages of the coherence - based approach are pointed out by comparing it with several other ways to characterize ' best explanation ' and showing that it takes into account their insights while overcoming some of their problems. The consequences of adopting this approach for IBE are discussed in the context of recent discussions about the relationship between IBE and Bayesianism

Problems with Priors in Probabilistic Measures of Coherence
Erkenntnis 63 (3): 375-385. 2005.
Two of the probabilistic measures of coherence discussed in this paper take probabilistic dependence into account and so depend on prior probabilities in a fundamental way. An example is given which suggests that this prior-dependence can lead to potential problems. Another coherence measure is shown to be independent of prior probabilities in a clearly defined sense and consequently is able to avoid such problems. The issue of prior-dependence is linked to the fact that the first two measures c…Read more
Two of the probabilistic measures of coherence discussed in this paper take probabilistic dependence into account and so depend on prior probabilities in a fundamental way. An example is given which suggests that this prior-dependence can lead to potential problems. Another coherence measure is shown to be independent of prior probabilities in a clearly defined sense and consequently is able to avoid such problems. The issue of prior-dependence is linked to the fact that the first two measures can be understood as measures of coherence as striking agreement, while the third measure represents coherence as agreement. Thus, prior (in)dependence can be used to distinguish different conceptions of coherence.

Coherence, Explanation, and Hypothesis Selection
British Journal for the Philosophy of Science. forthcoming.
This paper provides a new approach to inference to the best explanation based on a new coherence measure for comparing how well hypotheses explain the evidence.

This paper provides a new approach to inference to the best explanation based on a new coherence measure for comparing how well hypotheses explain the evidence. It addresses a number of criticisms of the use of probabilistic measures in this context by Clark Glymour, including limitations of earlier work on IBE. Computer experiments are used to show that the new approach finds the truth with a high degree of accuracy in hypothesis selection tasks and that in some cases its accuracy is greater than hypothesis selection based on maximizing posterior probability. Hence, by overcoming some of the problems with the previous approach, this work provides a more adequate defence of IBE and suggests that IBE not only tracks truth but also has practical advantages over the previous approach. Applications of the new approach to parameter estimation and model selection are also explored.
A New Argument for the Likelihood Ratio Measure of Confirmation
with Mark McCartney
Acta Analytica 30 (1): 59-65. 2015.
This paper presents a new argument for the likelihood ratio measure of confirmation by showing that one of the adequacy criteria used in another argument can be replaced by a more plausible and better supported criterion which is a special case of the weak likelihood principle. This new argument is also used to show that the likelihood ratio measure is to be preferred to a measure that has recently received support in the literature
Two-dimensional opinion dynamics in social networks with conflicting beliefs
with Shuwei Chen and Mark McCartney
AI and Society 34 (4): 695-704. 2019.
Two models are developed for updating opinions in social networks under situations where certain beliefs might be considered to be competing. These two models represent different attitudes of people towards the perceived conflict between beliefs. In both models agents have a degree of tolerance, which represents the extent to which the agent takes into account the differing beliefs of other agents, and a degree of conflict, which represents the extent to which two beliefs are considered to be co…Read more

These two models represent different attitudes of people towards the perceived conflict between beliefs. In both models agents have a degree of tolerance, which represents the extent to which the agent takes into account the differing beliefs of other agents, and a degree of conflict, which represents the extent to which two beliefs are considered to be competing. Computer simulations are used to determine how the opinion dynamics are affected by the inclusion of conflict. Results show that conflict can enhance the formation of consensus within the network in certain circumstances according to one of the models.

Science, God and Ockham's razor
Philosophical Studies 174 (5): 1145-1161. 2017.
In discussions about the existence of God, it is sometimes claimed that the progress of science has removed the need for God. This paper uses a Bayesian analysis of Ockham's razor to formulate and evaluate this argument, which is referred to as the science explains away God argument. Four different strategies for responding to this argument are presented and evaluated. It is argued that one of these strategies highlights how difficult it is to show that the conditions for applying Ockham's razor…Read more

Hypothesis Competition beyond Mutual Exclusivity
with Jonah N. Schupbach
Philosophy of Science 84 (5): 810-824. 2017.
Competition between scientific hypotheses is not always a matter of mutual exclusivity. Consistent hypotheses can compete to varying degrees either directly or indirectly via a body of evidence. We motivate and defend a particular account of hypothesis competition by showing how it captures these features. Computer simulations of Bayesian inference are used to highlight the limitations of adopting mutual exclusivity as a simplifying assumption to model scientific reasoning, particularly due to t…Read more
Competition between scientific hypotheses is not always a matter of mutual exclusivity. Consistent hypotheses can compete to varying degrees either directly or indirectly via a body of evidence. We motivate and defend a particular account of hypothesis competition by showing how it captures these features. Computer simulations of Bayesian inference are used to highlight the limitations of adopting mutual exclusivity as a simplifying assumption to model scientific reasoning, particularly due to the exclusion of hypotheses that may be true. We end with a case study demonstrating the subtleties involved in hypothesis competition in scientific practice.

Drama. After patiently bidding up the fast food companies by $50 billion and +24% all last year, and collecting $5.5 billion in dividends, the market decided that it was time for … a haircut? And promptly trimmed $11 billion and 5% off the aggregate market value with presumably discretionary cuts on assorted others – some of whom were "scalped". Please see Exhibit 1 below.
The way the market works, of course, is that somebody bought at the top what somebody else was selling, and those who did are probably now wondering if they did the right thing or should they have bought their own lunch instead of everybody else's? And despite 100,000 books and memoirs to the contrary, nobody knows how the market really works or what it's working on now (CNBC, February 4, 2014, 'Hot money' ride could be getting put on ice).
But America doesn't travel on an empty stomach – and it's travelling now – and we like food and we like these stocks and, as usual, we buy them all – if warranted and with the usual safeguards – because if we're not eating at one, we will be eating at the other.
All seventeen of them but for Darden Restaurants (please see Exhibit 3 below) are in the Perpetual Bond™ now and that portfolio returned +54% last year, plus our share of the dividends. Please see Exhibit 2 below and click on the link "The Fastest Food In America – Portfolio & Cash Flow Summary" for more details.
It's because of our studied ignorance of how the market really works that we only buy and hold those stocks for which there is a demonstrated excess of demand over supply – that is, they are trading at or above the price of risk.
Darden Restaurants has been walking close to the line, that is, the price of risk which is calculated as the Risk Price (SF) (Black line), for several years and it was an easier buy and hold in 2010 through 2012 but has fallen through now.
The indicated Stop/Loss prices are indicative only and need to be adjusted according to our sensitivity to a loss – and we always expect to lose but are often proven wrong.

Can America's surplus medical supplies benefit children overseas? Can unused medical supplies help up to 6 million children around the world gain access to medical care? Yes! Not only will these 6 million children gain medical care access, but many of the children who are at risk of death before their 5th birthday will survive because of our surplus of medical supplies.
Often, usable supplies no longer meet with American medical regulations and standards. These supplies are still valuable and can be gathered for much needed use overseas.
Medical Surplus Recovery Organizations (MSRO's) like Supplies Over Seas do just this. We partner up with hospitals, medical institutions, and other individuals to divert these anti-regulatory supplies from landfills to help out impoverished communities.

Tony Ray-Jones Photographer

My aim is to communicate something of the spirit and the mentality of the English, their habits and their way of life, the ironies that exist in the way they do things, partly through their traditions and partly through the nature of their environment and their mentality. For me there is something very special about the English 'way of life' and I wish to record it from my particular point of view before it becomes Americanised and disappears.
Tony Ray-Jones was a documentary photographer even before the term was coined. He studied in the US at Yale and returned to the UK in 1965, it was then whilst doing work for the Radio Times and other publications, that he decided to turn his camera on the English at leisure. At the time, his photographs were considered "exotic".
In 1968 his attempts to publish his England by the Sea album, which served as a basis for the A Day Off (which was published after his death), came to nothing – the publishers claimed that the album would raise no interest.
He was a major influence on Martin Parr, but sadly died at the age of 31 from leukaemia.
Here Martin Parr talks about his influence on him.
The Guardian have a super collection of his work

In 2004 Liz Jobey wrote a very informative article about Tony Ray-Jones
The critic Sean O'Hagan said:
in his short life he helped create a way of seeing that has shaped several generations of British photography

Enrique Iglesias on the road to recovery after fingers cut in concert!
NEW YORK, United States — Enrique Iglesias was recovering Sunday after some of his fingers were sliced when he grabbed a drone during a concert in Tijuana, Mexico.
A representative for the singer said in a statement that Iglesias was "semi-treated" after the accident at the side of the stage to stop the bleeding on Saturday night. He was advised to end the show but went on to perform for an additional 30 minutes.

One year after the presentation of the Ferrari 575GTZ, Zagato returns to Villa d`Este with a world preview for fans of Italian sports sedans: the Maserati GS Zagato.
In the most classic traditions of exclusive collections that inspired the creativity of car designers in the `50s and `60s, Paolo Boffi, well-known entrepreneur in the furnishing and luxury design sector, has commissioned from Zagato a customised look for his Maserati GS Spyder.
Zagato proposes a line that evoked the historical Maserati A6 G Zagato of 1954: one of the most beautiful Italian sedans ever built, and nowadays at the top of every collector`s wish list.
For purists of the compact coupe, afficionados of the Milano-based brand, it is a two-volume, two-seater, hatchback with a streamlined profile and a neat tail.
The wheelbase is 180mm shorter, a spin-off from the Spyder, provides excellent handling and stability on curves, with extraordinary torsional rigidity.
In homage to the tradition of the gentlemen drivers who asked Zagato to transform the bodywork of their cars, modern collectors choose mechanics at the top level of technical evolution and `dress` them in tailor-made garments that increase in value as time passes.
Zagato, born in 1919 as an atelier for automobiles and planes, has put its signature on all the most important mechanics of the last century, earning the opportunity to create, every time, an "instant classic".
Zagato`s strengths lie in the concept of sports-style elegance, a functional design that does not bow to momentary fashions but seeks out the excitement and pleasure of driving, and in the precious aluminium bodywork, a value recognised everywhere.
The Maserati GS Zagato will be on show at the Concours d`Elegance Villa d`Este, to be held in Cernobbio (Italy) 20 -22 April 2007.

The Belief in Whitey Bulger's Guilt Like That In The Amirault, Connnolly and Sandusky Cases May Cause an Injustice
October 9, 2012 Massachusetts Justice Systemmtc9393
Today The New York Times wrote: "Former Penn State football coach Jerry Sandusky learns whether he will spend his life in prison at his sentencing for child sex abuse on Tuesday, just hours after broadcasting a statement proclaiming his innocence and denouncing his accusers."
Reading that made me reflect upon the proposition, what if Sandusky is innocent. I know a great number of people who are convicted proclaim their innocence but that doesn't mean none are.
Sandusky was found guilty long before the jury convicted him by the media. I have to admit I believe he is guilty just reading the accounts of the accusations in the media or seeing him paraded around on television. He said in his statement which I urge you to read: "People need to be portrayed for who they really are. We've not been complainers. When we couldn't have kids, we adopted. When we didn't have time to prepare for a trial, we still gave it our best."
Sandusky was indicted on November 11, 2011 on 40 counts of sex crimes against 8 victims; again on December 7, 2011, on 12 additional charges on victims 9 and 10. On June 11, 2012, six months after the latest charges the trial started over the objections of his lawyers who were rebutted in their request for a delay.
We had a case in Massachusetts that involved alleged sexual abuse of children. Dorothy Rabinowitz of the Wall Street Journal noted this in her writings all but suggesting it was a witch hunt which she called: "The story of the Amiraults of Massachusetts." The Amiraults ran the Fells Acres Day Care Center. Violet Amirault founded the school which was highly popular and her daughter Cheryl age 28 and her son Gerald age 30 worked there. They would all be convicted of sexually abusing the children at the school in what Rabinowitz said: "The accusations against [them] might well rank as the most astounding ever to be credited in an American courtroom . . . ." Gerald ended up doing 18 years in prison. He was considered the leader of the abuse, "a primary male offender." Violet and Cheryl did 8 years, were released, were again incarcerated. Violet died during the proceedings and Cheryl was eventually freed after 10 years.
The similarity between the Sandusky and Amirault's case relate to the general consensus that sweeps across the public spread by the media of a person's guilt. I believe the Amirault's were totally innocent. They were caught up in a national frenzy of the 1980s reminiscent of the days of the Salem Witch trials, as set out in Rabinowitz's book, No Crueler Tyrannies. Parents were consumed with fear that their children were being sexually abused. I handled two of those situations in those days: one, a murder case where a mother felt her young daughter was being sexually abused so she killed her to prevent it continuing; the other, a case where allegations similar to those in Fells Acre were made in our country against a day care center which we approached with our state police as we would any other criminal case, keeping the hysteria aside, and found the allegations were unfounded.
Sandusky and Amirault are two examples where the public outcry condemns a person based on media reports and the result is the infection of our whole society, the judges, the prosecutors, the media and the people. All arrive at universal agreement of one's guilt before the first word is uttered at a trial. Sandusky rightfully complains he was rushed to trial. He will not receive any relief because no one believes in the possibility of his innocence. The Amiraults were wrongfully convicted. They too did not receive any relief from the Massachusetts Supreme Court on their several appeals.
I came to believe in their innocence over time. This was reaffirmed when a close friend who was as strict a prosecutor as I ever met had the opportunity to fully review the matter. He had no doubt as to their innocence.
Rabinowitz points out many other cases where community consensus was wrong as it was in the Amirault case.
The media demonized and convicted John Connolly for his involvement with Whitey Bulger and Stevie Flemmi. Yet we know the FBI is still involved in doing the same thing as we've seen with Mafia capo Mark Rossetti. But it goes far beyond that. USA Today reported on October 7, 2012 under the headline: "Crimes by ATF and DEA informants not tracked by feds" that DEA has at least 4,000 and the FBI has 15,000 informants. USA Today asked the FBI, ATF and DEA how many of their informants they have authorized to commit crimes. DEA and ATF said it had no reports that would indicate how often or when informants are allowed to commit crimes. A simple answer to a simple question.
The FBI at first gave the same answer as the other agencies gave. Then it called USA Today back with a new story. It said it is required to collect information on how often each of the bureau's 56 field offices allows informants to break the law. Apparently it has been doing that. So, thankfully the information is available. Unfortunately the FBI will not release those figures. For all we know the FBI is pretending it exists. The curtain has been lifted on it. Its credibility is pretty bad.
The real import of this is that all these agencies have authorized their informants to commit crimes. Why then was John Connolly so vilified because he did the same thing with Whitey and Stevie? It was the media's push and the public's acceptance and he is still held up as the personification of evil even though a Boston jury acquitted him of charges relating to his informants.
I note all this because even though we all believe Whitey is guilty, we have yet to hear the evidence — then when he has a chance to be heard we should make up our minds. And, we should not give him the opportunity to denounce a jury verdict by saying he was not given time to prepare. Let's not rush to judgment on this matter.

Q: JES - Gray Posterize So here is a simple function to gray posterize an image. With gray point = 64
def grayPosterize(pic):
 grayPoint = 64
 for p in getPixels(pic):
  r = getRed(p)
  g = getGreen(p)
  b = getBlue(p)
  luminiance = (r+g+b)/3
  if luminance < grayPoint:
   setColor(p,black)
  if luninance >= grayPoint:
   setColor(p,white)

Because this program uses 64 as the gray point, sometimes bright picture turns into all white and dark picture turn into all black.
I want the program instead of using 64 as a gray point, try all of the possible gray points (0 to 256) to find the best possible posterize picture result (by using distance to find the closest picture to the original)
An example of code to compare the different.
def imageDiff(img1,img2):
  if getWidth(img1)!=getWidth(img2) or getHeight(img1)!=getHeight(img2):
    print "Error calculating the image difference. img1 dimensions different to img2 dimensions!"
    return -1

  totalDistance=0
  for px1 in getPixels(img1):
    x=getX(px1)
    y=getY(px1)
    px2=getPixel(img2,x,y)
    clr1=getColor(px1)
    clr2=getColor(px2)
    totalDistance=totalDistance+ distance(clr1,clr2)
  return totalDistance

How would I do that?
Thanks in advance.

Its title songs were widely aired in China on radio, television, and even streetcorners.
Caravan will be shown for free at Dadonghai Square.
In conjunction with the film exihibition, some less popular Indian films will be released at cinemas in Sanya, Boao, Haikou, Qionghai, Danzhou and Wuzhishan.
Films are immensely popular in India, with as many as 1,600 films produced in various languages every year. Indian cinema produces more films watched by more people than any other country. Indian cinema is known as Bollywood. Indian film has gained high rating and favor from all over the world through its varied social themes and unique song and dance style. "Gems of Asia--Spotlight on India" will contribute to the establishment of cooperative relationship between China and India.
Hainan Island International Film Festival is supposed to be a film festival without ending,it will achieve the goal of being "a year-round exhibition,island-wide exihibition national film viewing and whole industry chain".


Selecting El Gouna, Egypt for their wedding was an easy decision: it was the city where their love story began. Their wedding celebration was a masterful reflection of them as a couple; their connection is deep and unwavering, and they love their friends and family with the same fierce intensity.
I knew that traveling to document their wedding would be an adventure, but what I wasn't ready for was how much the experience would move me. From the moment I arrived in Egypt it was a sensory overload of majestic and ancient structures, awe inspiring views, and traditions that were so incredible I couldn't help but cry (just check out the Zaffa below before you judge haha). I was treated to the most gracious hospitality from beginning to end, and in being welcomed like that I was able to photograph from a different and more personal perspective.
Putting together this story was so captivating I got lost in the experience all over again. It was also extremely difficult because really I wanted to post a gazillion photos but I have to play it cool.
Beginning to thank Aayah + Amr for the privilege of this experience, their friends and their families for welcoming me with such warmth—where do I even start?! I am inspired by how much love exists between all of you and grateful to have been a small part in this extraordinary celebration!
Aayah: the entrance and zaffa! (the traditional egyptian entrance with drums and songs) It was amazing walking out to see all our family and friends waiting for me, with Amr right in the middle! My second favorite part was the sparklers and fireworks at cake-cutting. I had forgotten it was going to happen and it felt like such a surprise and was one of the most surreal moments for me.
Amr: My favorite part was Aayah. She looked perfect. It felt like the entire wedding was made to fit her, including myself!
I would have thanked my friends way more in advance for all the little tasks they had to do to make the day go smoothly. They saved the day!
To savor every moment, even the "bad" ones. Dani gave me great advice when everything started falling way behind schedule, and I was just sitting in my dress waiting. She said, this is the only day you will get to wear this dress, enjoy it! It was such a great perspective and it immediately changed my mood!
Stunningly gorgeous bride and handsome groom…Wonderful family…Amazing pictures to treasure the day for years to come.
Oh wow thank you, Lisa for the wonderful compliment!! I appreciate you stopping by!

The second instalment of John French's great The Horusian Wars collection, Manifestation adheres to on quite directly from Resurrection to continue the story of Inquisitor Covenant and his search of the shadowy cabal known as the Triune. Assisted by the Imperial Tarot, Commitment and also his warband trip to the shrine world of Dominicus Prime where, among the secrets as well as machinations of the sprawling Monastery of the Last Candle, a scary power will manifest. The Triune look for to use that power to increase a tool versus Turmoil whilst Covenant– ever the puritan– is established to see them fail.
It almost totally occurs on or in orbit of Dominicus Prime, and also mainly within the Monastery of the Last Candle light; it's such a huge, Gormenghast-esque setting, however, that the scale is still impressively large and also its various residents, from explorers to clergymans, suitably varied. This is 'domestic 40k' at it's strangest and most interesting, a world far from the large combat zones but no less dark or unsafe for that. Covenant's warband are all present as well as right, albeit with slightly various emphasis this moment, while most of the new faces are drawn from the Abbey or from the warband of another inquisitor, Memnon. It's a huge actors, and there's a great deal going on, but as you would certainly get out of French it's all thoroughly plotted and also smartly built to maintain you thinking as to truth intents and ultimate role of each personality. These are all dark and also complex personalities, going to do dreadful points in service of their goals, as well as even the likeable ones are flawed as well as reliant not be quite what you anticipate.
Preventing one scene featuring an abnormally explanatory conversation of Horusianism, it once more does not spend too lengthy proactively discussing the different branches of the Inquisition. Rather, the distinctions in between Agreement and Memnon's ideologies are discovered via their actions, as well as those of their warbands.

Wouldn't you know it, but I've got some catching up to do again… On Saturday, we decided to take a trip through a portion of the Black Forest. Baden Baden is just about where it starts, so we headed south from there. Our first stop was high up on a hill where there is the ruins of the Windeck castle, a hotel, and a restaurant that originally was a large stable. The castle was built in the 11th century and the Windeck family had it until the 14th century. After they left it, it just fell to ruins and is just as you see it today. Lunch sounded real good about the time we arrived at the castle, so we found ourselves a seat at the front of the stable and enjoyed some of the local foods. In continuing our drive, our next stop was at Mummelsee. There we found a large lake (that is where the "see" comes from) that sits up about 4000 feet in the Black Forest. There are hundreds of walking and hiking trails up there as well and during the winter, it becomes a popular ski resort. We really don't know just what everyone is finding about this place that makes it so popular, but we could hardly find a parking place. After a quick tour, we headed back to the van completely puzzled as to the draw of this place… We were told that on Sunday there was going to be a large pork barbeque at the campground. Now that sounded good, so when Sunday arrived we made a point of staying close to home. About 11am and we started seeing things being put together…the barbeque arrived, the souvenir store opened, and the brass band started setting up. Oops, drinking beer at 11:00 on Sunday morning!! By noon, the band was playing and the people from the campground started heading for the food and drink…I thought I would be quicker, but I still got my share of all the goodies… Actually, it was wonderful and the pork with German potato salad more than filled our plate. We had so much, that Louise and I had to share a plate so that it wouldn't go to waste. Needless to say it was time for a nap. After the nap we had some noodles for dinner and as the rain had started again, we decided to watch a movie.
Well, this morning we pulled up stakes in the rain, and headed across the border and once more into France. Our trip today took us from Baden Baden down to Offenburg Germany and then east to Strasbourg France. From there we just found the most comfortable road to travel and headed northwest toward Metz and then onto Verdun for the night. When we awoke this morning it was raining and it continued pretty much off and on throughout the rest of the day. Tomorrow looks much better, so we are planning to make a day trip up to Luxembourg. Hopefully when we get there, we will also find a internet available to post.


This Drops to a monthly $1.32 (#1) should you cover 5 decades upfront, a total of $79 (#61). We wouldn't normally suggest signing up for that long, but the price is so low, you may think it's worthwhile. Personal Internet Access delivers a good two-year program for $2.91 (#2.24) per month, for example, but that is still $70 (#54) in complete, less. If you only use PureVPN for a couple of decades, you are getting adequate price.
The Company spoils this impression a little. Each plan has a'past sold' indicator that informs you if someone signed up, and it's just a few minutes ago.
This is Intended to show you the service is, but we are not sure the amounts are real. We refreshed the page several times, and visited in various browsers, and the'past sold' figures varied. They act as though they're chosen randomly, instead of corresponding to any actual world events.
PureVPN doesn't advertise a trial. We dug deep and found a webpage for something called a'3-day trial account', but that's a little misleading. It is actually only a commercial plan where you pay a non refundable $2.50 (#2) for 3 days of support.
Handing Over your money to PureVPN is unusually easy, since the business supports more or less every single payment format there is: credit card, PayPal, Bitcoin and several other cryptocurrencies (through CoinPayments), AliPay, assorted gift cards, and more than 150 other payment methods via the Paymentwall platform.
After Parting with your money, download links direct one to programs for Windows, Mac, iOS and Android, the browser extensions and more. We grabbed the Windows client, and there arrived a welcome email with login details as it downloaded.
Setup Was easy, and after a speedy launch, the Windows client prompted us to pick one of five modes: Stream, Internet Freedom, Security/Privacy, File Sharing and Dedicated IP. We guess most people will wonder if to select Security/Privacy or even Internet Freedom, and there is no immediate advice to describe the difference.
The Support website told us that selecting a mode could optimize PureVPN's settings for that task. Picking Security/Privacy would prioritize security over all else, however, the Streaming and File Sharing manners would optimize for speed.
VPN This approach might be appreciated by Beginners since it means that they don't need to understand and tweak the settings that are underlying. As there's no clear indication of what each mode does but experts are not as inclined to approve. There's nothing wrong with task-based style selection, but we would like a clear display of those low-level settings for each mode, so experienced users can comprehend the effects of their selection.
After You're able to pick locations from a dash. This has lots of performance, allowing you to navigate locations by countries or cities, search by title, see ping times, or make favorites for quick recall later.
Alternatively, Deciding upon a Goal option displays a listing of tasks you might want to execute — unblocking Netflix or other streaming sites, utilizing VoIP, obtaining social networking sites or whatever — and you can in theory choose one of these, and allow PureVPN to select a host for you.
Connect To a host and the client displays your link status. There's also an optional bandwidth graph showing your information transfers. You won't want it, but it is excellent to see PureVPN making the attempt.
The Client makes clever of usage of notifications to make sure that you know what is happening. Choose a place and as long as your Windows client is the foreground application, it won't waste your time. But if you switch to the client notices a different application, and a pop-up window appears to allow you to know when it disconnects and connects.
The Customer does have options to start for instance, auto-connect and system start. As soon as you're protected, it may open your default browser.
Need a Different protocol? PureVPN Permits You to Pick from OpenVPN TCP/UDP, PPTP, L2TP, SSTP and IKEV. There is also an Automatic option which the customer suggests offers the very best speed and security, but from what we can see, that's not true: it just cycles through the other protocols until it finds one that works.
Split Tunneling allows you to send only specified apps' visitors through your VPN. That requires more time to install, and you need to be quite sure which apps you need to redirect, but it can also optimize performance by limiting your data transfer needs.
The VPN Hotspot is an additional, configuring a wireless hotspot which turns the server computer into a restricted VPN router. Once it's enabled, you will have the ability to use your telephone, tablet computer or other devices to go online via the host's PureVPN connection.
And the List goes on, using IPv6 leak security, a remarkably configurable kill switch, and a multi-port option which intelligently chooses the best port, preventing any closed or throttled alternatives. You may opt to utilize a non-NAT system to acquire a special IP address, port forwarding is available should you require it, and a Support section doesn't simply link to the site: it eases creating a service ticket from within the client.
Even though There is lots of power , the port is a mess that is awkward and inconsistent. You will find standard buttons, radio buttons, icons, links and sidebars, they do not always work as you'd expect, and even though we figured out how to navigate around the system, it never felt comfortable or natural.
Still, The customer did a decent job for us, blocking DNS and WebRTC escapes, and with the kill button successfully murdering our internet access when the VPN link fell. If you'll use a number of the customer's many extra features, it may appeal.
We took a Look at PureVPN's Android program, and it was much the exact same story since the Windows version. After picking a'Mode' (still not certain why), we were able to pick cities, states, or pick a Goal (optimized for China, unblock that streaming assistance, etc ). It's more awkward to use than the VPN app, but you will find it out easily enough.
In a Previous inspection we pointed out that PureVPN made a big deal of its'zero log' policy. But the small print said there was some session logging, which appeared to add time you connect to a server, your incoming IP address and the total bandwidth utilized.
This Is not a minor detail. Back in October 2017 reports appeared of a guy being detained on suspicion of running"an extensive cyberstalking campaign", in part based on PureVPN records showing its services were obtained from appearing IPs such as the accused man's house and workplace. The'zero log' VPN kept some sort of logs, after all, and these were able to help link internet actions to a specific account.
This Does not tackle the issue of why the firm described itself as maintaining'zero logs' at the main portion of the website, though, when this turned out not to be completely correct. That's also not a point. Logging policies are predicated almost entirely on trust, and a VPN isn't inclined to be reliable if it is seen to mislead consumers or bury the fact of a situation from the small print.
The Policy also explains the minimum connection data it will record –'We know the day you connected to a particular VPN place and from which Internet Service Provider' — also covers lots of other vital issues in a clear and readable way.
We Double-clicked that the BBC option, and viewed as the client exhibited , our default browser opened, and connected an'err-network-changed' message. What? This looked like a severe problem, but the browser had only discovered the change in our community settings as the client connected, and once this was complete, the BBC iPlayer website opened and streamed content as normal.
It was The same story with Netflix. The customer started our browser until the connection was complete, so we saw the same error message, but this disappeared mechanically, and we had been free to navigate and stream whatever Netflix content we liked.
You're Not limited to the professional services built to PureVPN's apps. YouTube wasn't included on the list, for example, but by connecting to a US server in the 21, we were got .
Our Normal performance tests involve running custom software which connects assessing rates , ping time, place and much more. Regrettably, we could not get this working with PureVPN, or determine why (whether that's our fault or theirs, we can not be sure).
We dropped Back on our older manual method of connecting via clients and checking the results from various speed checking sites, including SpeedTest.net, Fast.com and TestMy.net. This will not give us as much data to work with, but there's still enough to get a sense for what the service can provide.
Our local UK servers varied a little more than usual, but nevertheless gave us very decent download rates of 50-65Mbps on our evaluation connection.
Close European rates were mildly under average. Netherlands connections can often deliver much the same speeds for us as UK servers, but here they have been.
US Performance ranged from approximately 30Mbps to 50Mbps, on the west shore on the east. That's far from the fastest we've seen, but unless you are likely 24 hours of torrenting, it's probably not going to cause you any difficulties.
As usual, Speeds tailed off for the places that were more distant or less typical. For instance, New Zealand averaged 12Mbps, Vietnam had been 10Mbps, Taiwan touched 1Mbps, also China ranged down to such a slow pace that the net often stalled mid-test. That puts the magnitude of PureVPN's system into perspective (having heaps of servers does not matter if many are unusably slow), but if you're only planning to use the major places, it will not matter very much.
On a few Occasions, our PureVPN Windows client wasn't able to link to our test server that is chosen. The Cancel button didn't work, however, the problem here is that the connection did not time out for several moments, although that's not unusual.
Let's start off by making something clear, i.e. whatever VPN support you use, the online speed is going to take a hit. That strike is a result. The vast majority of VPN services make every effort. Thus, unlike what many people are going to have you think it's not likely to be like using dial-up.
How we tested the performance was by utilizing Ookala's nifty speed testing site and app. We then ran the speed test on both international and national servers. We compared the outcomes and that's how we found PureVPN to be quicker.
PureVPN has a domestic latency of a mere 6.7% percent. During our evaluations that were downloading, as a matter of fact, PureVPN improved speeds that by our calculations is an unbelievable 346 percent percent. We discovered that rival VPN providers were slower. Some individuals suspect were throttling download rates because they did not wish to worry out their servers.
During our global speed tests, the latency increased by 200%. Though download rates were still a whopping 403.8% percent better than some of the competing products I tested it against. The uploads have been 22.7% percentage slower which is second best compared to possibly Hotspot Shield which enhanced the upload rate by 1.4percent percent.
The map on the left allows you skip the program's default recommendation and decide on a server for yourself. Remember that by default PureVPN selects the fastest server which is often the nearest one. When in China I noticed that it kept picking up servers in Hong Kong by default which is not the fact but also simply nearby that the cyberspace of Hong Kong is much less rigorously censored as China.
PureVPN has over 2000 servers that are dispersed across 140 countries and 180 areas around the world. Servers are located in Africa, Central America, South America, North America, Europe, Asia, and Asia. You might believe that PureVPN just has servers in countries which don't censor or block websites, but you'd be wrong. Servers in Russia, Turkey, and China are there in case you wanted them.
Over the years VPN services, in general, have received bad press for notoriously slowing down net rates that users have never been happy with obviously. Interestingly, there are still many VPN providers that slow down what may be slow net. Luckily, with PureVPN that's not true even in the event that you use it to stream Netflix, YouTube, etc..
I have used dozens of VPN programs over time, also PureVPN is like a breath of fresh air. It is simple to use and compared to the previous time that I used the app its geared towards individuals that are new to using VPNs. As soon as PureVPN loads you're motivated to pick from five options, i.e. Safety, Internet Freedom, Stream, Remote/Dedi IP (this attribute gives you a dedicated IP) and File Sharing. An experience that's based on the option chosen is then delivered by the app.
The other thing I enjoy about PureVPN is that every one of the features are to the point. For instance, their Web Freedom feature lets you choose what area you need to get Netflix out of, such as from the UK, Australia, etc.. In which it is otherwise blocked, you can also get Netflix from China.
In comparison with the last time I used PureVPN now around it sensed zippier. The interface has been bright, with pictures some of which may be hard to read on a screen. When you're connected to a server, you are going to observe the IP address, connection status, and the length of your session.
The visitors chart gives you a fantastic feel for just how much bandwidth has been consumed, which is beneficial for anyone on a metered internet connection. Nonetheless, it's very important to mention for those worrying about data caps which PureVPN does not have any. You're only limited to what the ISP has in store for you!
Like most other competing VPN services, you choose the server and the nation it is based in. You can search for servers and then click on them to connect. Apparently, some servers based on where you are found are going to be quicker than others because of latency.
We have admittedly used PureVPN earlier, but after a hiatus or two years we pretty much forgot how things worked. Select a password and you'll need to enter your email As soon as you've chose to register and download their applications. Interestingly and perhaps confusingly, this isn't what you'll use to log-in into the software, but instead it is used for billing purposes.
Once contributors have compensated, they get an email with the username and password in plain text. We've utilized VPNs that use the exact same method to distinguish payment identities from user identities which ensures anonymity that was better. Yet we believe it could be confusing to users however. Plus, in our experience the email will land for some reason in your junk folder, so be certain that you check that also.
PureVPN includes a support Site of troubleshooting manuals and tutorials. The opening page points you to categories like Getting Started, Setup Guide For Users in China and to see Netflix US, for instance, and most of these segments include more content than you'd expect.
The Installation Guide includes subsections for Other Devices, Routers and Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS, Smart TV, as an example, and a number of those individual segments have more information than the support site of VPNs.
Although it's an impressive amount of work, we're Unsure how effective and reliable it might be. We assessed the manual OpenVPN setup guide, for instance, and discovered it failed completely. OpenVPN wasn't installed there weren't any PureVPN settings files, and there was no troubleshooting information from the guide to help us figure out this.
If the Website can not help, you can send an email or increase a support ticket from inside the customer. We chose the ticket path and the service performed with the support team sending us a helpful and friendly response to our evaluation question in just over an hour.
PureVPN Comes bundled with a pile. These don't always work as you might anticipate, though, and there are tons of usability issues with the apps — but demanding users who will utilize this level of VPN power should give PureVPN an appearance.

Q: In a SOQL statement, what is the =: symbol? How does = differ from =: ?
My code snippet below only works when using =:, however when looking through the SOQL documentation, I mostly see examples using =.
public class AccountUtils {

    public static List<Account> accountsByState(String abbr) {
        list<Account> result = [SELECT ID, Name FROM Account WHERE BillingState =: abbr];
        system.debug(result);
        return result;
    }
}

Versus an example from the documentation that uses =:
SELECT Id
FROM Case
WHERE Contact.LastName = null

A: The : denotes a variable, in your case for abbr in your SOQL e.g.
SELECT ID, Name FROM Account WHERE BillingState = :abbr

as opposed to null which is a literal value
SELECT Id FROM Case WHERE Contact.LastName = null

in short if you are using a variable in SOQL then use : before the variable name.

A:
SOQL and SOSL statements in Apex can reference Apex code variables and expressions if they're preceded by a colon (:). This use of a local code variable within a SOQL or SOSL statement is called a bind. The Apex parser first evaluates the local variable in code context before executing the SOQL or SOSL statement. Bind expressions can be used as:

'Phenomenal Woman': Maya Angelou remembered by those she inspired
Those who knew Maya Angelou and others inspired by her life, wisdom and words were remembering her Wednesday.
"Phenomenal Woman" — the title of Angelou's poem celebrating the strength of women — quickly trended worldwide on Twitter. Celebrity tweets also included "true inspiration," "hero" and "national treasure."
Others needed more than Twitter's 140 characters to express their personal loss.
— Oprah Winfrey called Angelou her "mentor, mother/sister, and friend since my 20's."
"She was there for me always, guiding me through some of the most important years of my life," Winfrey said. "The world knows her as a poet but at the heart of her, she was a teacher. 'When you learn, teach. When you get, give' is one of my best lessons from her."
"She won three Grammys, spoke six languages and was the second poet in history to recite a poem at a presidential inauguration. But what stands out to me most about Maya Angelou is not what she has done or written or spoken, it's how she lived her life. She moved through the world with unshakeable calm, confidence and a fierce grace I loved her and I know she loved me. I will profoundly miss her. She will always be the rainbow in my clouds."
— President Barack Obama called Angelou "one of the brightest lights of our time — a brilliant writer, a fierce friend, and a truly phenomenal woman."
"Over the course of her remarkable life, Maya was many things — an author, poet, civil rights activist, playwright, actress, director, composer, singer and dancer," Obama said. "But above all, she was a storyteller — and her greatest stories were true. A childhood of suffering and abuse actually drove her to stop speaking — but the voice she found helped generations of Americans find their rainbow amidst the clouds, and inspired the rest of us to be our best selves. In fact, she inspired my own mother to name my sister Maya."
— President Bill Clinton said "America has lost a national treasure."
"The poems and stories she wrote and read to us in her commanding voice were gifts of wisdom and wit, courage and grace," the former president said. "I will always be grateful for her electrifying reading of 'On the Pulse of Morning' at my first inaugural, and even more for all the years of friendship that followed."
"Now she sings the songs the Creator gave to her when the river 'and the tree and the stone were one.'"
— President George W. Bush said Angelou was "among the most talented writers of our time."
"Her words inspired peace and equality and enriched the culture of our country. We are grateful for the work she leaves behind, and we wish her the peace she always sought."
— Filmmaker Tyler Perry said Angelou was one of "a handful of people in my life who have moved me, inspired me, encouraged me, and helped mold the man I am today."
"Her words and her spirit are too powerful to leave this earth with her passing. Her legacy and poems will take wings, forever landing at the foundation of anything that betters humanity. Dr. Maya Angelou will live on in all of us who called her a phenomenal woman, phenomenally."
— Music producer Quincy Jones, who collaborated with Angelou on two songs for the soundtrack of the 1968 film "For Love of Ivy," said this: "As an author and poet, Maya Angelou's ability to channel God's voice and express the feelings deep within all of humanity will never be matched by another. She gave us words when we could find none, and helped us to see clearly when the light was dimmest."
— Jim Caldwell, head coach of the NFL's Detroit Lions, knew Angelou from the days he coached football at Wake Forest, where she was a professor: "She was extremely impactful. You look at just the body of her work and what a difference that made for our society from a cultural standpoint, and from a social standpoint as well. She influenced a number of students and folks, like myself, who worked there at the university, who had the great fortune of coming into contact with her."
— Civil rights activist and former U.N. Ambassador Andrew Young called Angelou "an activist poet."
"She was one of the most positive people on this planet-through her life, her wisdom, her poetry and prose she lifted the aspirations and nurtured the spirits of everyone she touched. She worked for Martin Luther King in the early days of the civil rights movement. She was a friend and confidante to Nelson Mandela and to me. Maya inspired young girls to grow into 'Phenomenal Women.' She walked with Kings, Presidents and Nobel Prize winners and never lost the common touch."
— Major League Baseball executive Frank Robinson said the league would honor Angelou with its 2014 Beacon of Life Award this Friday.
"All of us at Major League Baseball mourn the loss of the incomparable Dr. Maya Angelou, who led a full and accomplished life and left an indelible impact on our society. Today we have lost one of our greatest voices, but Dr. Angelou's words will live on and will continue to inspire generations to come. With a heavy heart, the National Pastime will honor Dr. Angelou at this weekend's Civil Rights Game in a manner befitting her remarkable legacy."
Rihanna: "Angel. #RIPMayaAngelou The first book I read as a teenager, "I know why the caged bird sings". Felt like we knew her"
Ellen DeGeneres: "Today the world lost one of it's greatest gifts. I'm sending love to the friends and family of Maya Angelou."
Pharrell Williams: "Saddened by the news of Maya Angelou's passing. A brilliant woman who contributed so much to the world. Her light will be sorely missed."
J.K. Rowling: "If you are always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be." Maya Angelou – who was utterly amazing."
Common: "I was thinking about her lately. GOD Bless the Soul of one if my heroes. Dr Maya Angelou"
Steve Harvey: "Sad to hear the news of Maya Angelou passing. She is a true inspiration and will be missed."
Eva Longoria: "The world lost an incredible woman today who inspired me and millions of others. #RIP Maya Angelou"
Terry McMillan: "We were fortunate to have Maya Angelou embrace our sense of self and humanity when many of us were losing or had lost faith."
Lenny Kravitz: "There are no words…"
Pitbull: "The first time someone shows you who they are, believe them."
Omar Epps: "RIP Maya Angelou! Thank you for sharing your gifts."
Kellie Pickler: "RIP Maya Angelou – A woman of Grace, Wisdom, Kindness & Love…we can all learn from your beautiful…"
Erik Estrada: "RIP Maya Angelou. Your words have changed peoples thinking & sometimes their behavior. Thank you for sharing your life with so many."
Olivia Wilde: "RIP Maya Angelou, a badass woman who saw the impossible as merely a dare."
Maria Shriver: "God bless @DrMayaAngelou. A woman who used her voice to raise up, inspire and educate. Her words will live on in everyone who reads them."
