2012 Cheltenham Festival Just Twelve Days Away!
Home » Sports Betting News » 2012 Cheltenham Festival Just Twelve Days Away!
There are now just twelve days to go until the 2012 Cheltenham Festival gets under way with the William Hill Supreme Novices' Hurdle! Here's a quick a recap of our recommended Festival bets, plus a look at some of the best Cheltenham free bets and money back specials on offer from the bookmakers.
Paddy Power are one of the top bookmakers when it comes to promotions and special offers, and they have already got the ball rolling ahead of the 2012 Cheltenham Festival with what we think is one of the best offers we're likely to see during the entire Festival.
Simply back the horse of your choice in the 2012 Arkle and if the hot favourite Sprinter Sacre wins, they will refund your losing bet up to the value of £100 / €100, an offer that could well cost the popular Irish bookmaker a figure in the region of £2 million.
As you'll see from our Arkle preview, we don't think Sprinter Sacre is as good as the hype would have you believe and our tip Al Ferof now looks exceptional value. He remains a best price of 6.50 (Coral) but the 6.00 with Paddy Power now looks a much better bet, knowing that if Sprinter Sacre beats us, we'll get a big old refund.
Don't forget about their new account bonus of £50 too, if you've never used Paddy Power before.
Another decent looking Cheltenham Festival offer from a popular Irish bookmaker is the BoyleSports opening day money back offer. Back a horse in any of the first four races on the opening day of the 2012 Festival and if it finishes second, you'll get your stake back in the form of a free bet (up to the value of £200).
Open an account with BoyleSports in time for the festival, and you'll bag yourself a free bet worth £20.
Today is also the day that most of the major bookmakers begin to go "No Runner, No Bet" on all of their Cheltenham Festival markets, so if you back a horse antepost in a Cheltenham Festival race and it doesn't actually run on the day, you'll have your stake returned in full, no questions asked. BetVictor have already confirmed that their Cheltenham markets are No Runner No Bet from today and it's likely that others will follow suit. Open a new account with BetVictor ahead of the Festival and you'll net a £25 free bet too.
Bet365 are already No Runner No Bet, as well as offering "Best Odds Guaranteed" – in other words, if you back a horse today and it wins at bigger odds, you'll be paid out at the higher price. Can't say fairer than that. Don't forget their terrific £200 new account bonus too!
March 1, 2012 - Offer valid as of date published. T&Cs apply.


Comments: As an Operations Analyst, I am constantly reviewing our company's historical financial data and trying to recognize trends to determine what type of consumer behavior we can expect tomorrow, a week from now, a month from now, etc. Operating multiple restaurants in over 10 major airports across the US, the importance of MIRUS is immeasurable when it comes to being able to analyze this type of large data quickly. This tool provides an infinite amount of possibilities when it comes to creating reports - any idea I can come up with is able to be quantified and reflected in a report within seconds. I use it daily to keep tabs on everything from Menu Sales Mixes to the daily amount of Voids there were as a percentage of Total Transactions. Outside of sales information, MIRUS goes above and beyond when it comes to helping our company run efficiently - it has helped me pinpoint potential employee theft in a given restaurant, and lets me see who has been forgetting to clock-out at the end of the day (driving the Overtime dollars up). I could not say enough good things about the customer service I receive from the MIRUS team. Any time I have a question or an idea about a new type of report I want to create, they are happy to help me with what ever it is that I am looking for. Thank you MIRUS for saving me hours at the workplace!
Comments: We have been a MIRUS client since 2009, operating 38 locations spread out across 2 states. After the first few weeks we learned that we were missing critical information to operate our stores more efficiently. For every dollar we have invested with MIRUS we have returned that 5 fold. Any BI tool is a must have in today's environment. However MIRUS is hands down the most complete BI solution for the restaurant industry.
Comments: MIRUS accomplished what no other product in the market has. They gave me all of my data and allowed me to compile my own reports! I now have the ability to quickly analyze the business in ways I never thought would be possible.
Comments: I have researched other business intelligence systems for the restaurant industry and hands-down, Mirus provides the most flexible, custom exception-based reporting solution.

Q: VBA Excel ?#NAME# error after insert function After insert a function (SUMIF) with VBA in excel, I got a name error in those cells. However if I click and enter into a one of those cells, error is gone and functions is calculated correctly.
Does anyone know how to fix that?
Thanks in advance.
This is the VBA code:
Do While Not rst.EOF
With rst
    Sheets("Test").Cells(linea, 1) = .Fields("Posting Date")
    Sheets("Test").Cells(linea, 2) = .Fields("Entry No_")
    Sheets("Test").Cells(linea, 3) = .Fields("G_L Account No_")
    Sheets("Test").Cells(linea, 4) = .Fields("Document No_")
    Sheets("Test").Cells(linea, 5) = .Fields("External Document No_")
    Sheets("Test").Cells(linea, 6) = "=customFunction(E" & line & ")"
    Sheets("Test").Cells(linea, 7) = .Fields("Description")
    Sheets("Test").Cells(linea, 8) = .Fields("Debit Amount")
    Sheets("Test").Cells(linea, 9) = .Fields("Credit Amount")
    Sheets("Test").Cells(linea, 10) = .Fields("Amount")
    Sheets("Test").Range("K" & linea).Formula = "=SUMIF(F:F,F:F,J:J)"

    line = line + 1
    rst.MoveNext
End With
Loop

A: You should probably add:
Calculate
at the end of your VBA function to cause Excel to update the, err, calculations

A: I found the solution. I was getting #name? error because I was using local function name. To solve this I used .FunctionLocal, this "translates" the Excel functions names if you are using a different language.
Thanks anyway.

Q: Advanced combinatorial probability There are $5$ rooms $R_1,R_2,R_3, R_4, R_5$ in a hallway. $17$ people may enter any of those $5$ rooms upon their wish. What is the probability that $5$ of them will enter $R_1$, $2$ will enter $R_2$, $4$ will enter $R_3$, $4$ will enter $R_4$  and  $2$  will enter $R_5$?

A: There is $17$ people but we should select $5 $people among them to place the first room.Then , we have $12$ people and we shoul select $2$ people among them.(I assume you know that combination i used for selecting objects in a set ) This process will continue until it is done.
Let come to the case of $5^{17}$ . It is said that each people can choose any of the rooms ,so the first person has $5 $ choice to get in a room and the second has also $5$ choice and so on ,i.e,  $5....5=5^{17}$
$\frac{C(17,5)C(12,2)C(10,4)C(6,4)C(2,2)}{5^{17}}$

A: Assume that the rooms are filled sequentially with the desired number of people from oldest to youngest, say, then
$Pr = (\frac 1{5})^5\cdot(\frac 1{5})^2\cdot(\frac1{5})^4\cdot(\frac 1{5})^4\cdot(\frac 1{5})^2 = (\frac1{5})^{17}$
But actually it can be filled in any order, hence use permutations with repetitions to get
$Pr = \left(\dfrac 1 5\right)^{17}\times\dfrac{17!}{ 5!2!4!4!2!}$


Hikikomori begins with neglect by mother. A child who are not loved cannot expect to be loved by others.
A child creates a false self who is lovable by his mother, and hides the true self. The child becomes two-faced with false self and true self at this point out of fear of abandonment.
Both masked hikikomori and social hikikomori numbs emotions out of fear of abandonment because they believe that they will be disliked by people if they are honest about their feelings.
Compared to functional mother-child relationship, a person of hikikomori hides emotions and cannot ask for love to the mother. If the child is reserved to the mother, it develops to nervousness as to others and become fearful of speaking honestly about their feelings.
Attachment trauma can be experienced through below symptoms.
No one knows one's true self.
In addition to above symptoms, hikikomori also has symptoms of PTSD and Dissociative Identity Disorder.

Mahdi and his mother say goodbye at the Airport in Mitilini
October 29, 2016 riva Lesbos
Photo: Marily Stroux
Mahdi needs to return, back to Germany. Back to his Father and to his smaller brother, he has to take care of. He leaves his mother on Lesvos, waiting for an unkown period of time for finally being together again when their family refunification will be accepted. Behind them a huge picture to advertise for the famous hospitality of the island. The inhabitants of Lesvos have been nominated for the Peace Nobel Price.
Now hospitality is not the en vogue any more. Instead all newly arriving refugees will first be imprisoned and even after their release from the hot spot Moria they are not allowed to leave the island that became a big prison for refugees with this new policy.
6.000 people are waiting, some since many months. Waiting for the EU-policy to change. Waiting to finally manage to go and reach their final destinations.
Mahdis mother belongs into the arms of her son. She should be part of his life that he has built up in Germany. She should not be stuck in here, waiting for months for the burocracy to finish their job and to finally allow her to reunify with her family.
Freedom of movement!
Meeting at the Lesvion Hotel with social workers from different organisations working with minor refugees in Lesvos
Tuesday 25.10. 2016
On Tuesday evening we met some social workers, lawyers, teachers and other people who work with minor refugees on the island. We started with an overview about the system in Germany: what happens when the unaccompanied minors arrive in Germany, the situation of the housing, the guardianships and the school system.
The people were very interested, had a lot of questions and we started the discussion. They told us about the problems in Greece and we exchanged about the different possibilities and difficulties in both countries. The situation in Greece, especially on the islands, changed a lot because many people arrived here and cannot move on. But when they left their countries they wanted to live in better conditions, planned to go to other countries for example to join their families and it's hard for them to see that's impossible to move on now.
The first reception for the unaccompanied minors is in the prison in Moria. They are only allowed to leave the prison a few hours per week. They have to stay there until a place in a youth shelter is found. But the problem is that there are not enough places for all of them so they are imprisoned often for months.
Also the school situation is very complicated. Most of the minors don't go to school. In some cases where they tried to send children to school there were also protests from some local parents against it.
The guardianships for all the minors on the island are in the hand of three judges/ prosecutors. The minors never see their guardians and the social workers need to invest a lot of time to get signatures for sport activities, medical treatments and so on. They don't get a general authorisation which would make the daily work a lot easier.
In the cases where a minor has for example an uncle in Athens either the prosecutor has to agree or the uncle has to pay a fee of 200 Euro to get the private guardianship. Due to the high amount of guardianships one prosecutor has, it's not so easy to get the agreement.
Naturally we also talked about family reunification and exchanged about the experiences.
Because to the lack of information a lot of people in Germany are afraid of bad consequences in their asylum procedure if they do family reunification. The communication with the lawyers, social workers and family members in Germany is also often complicated.
We all could profit a lot from this meeting. We are planning to keep in contact with the common wish to support the minors in their arrival in Europe.

Welcome to Greece guides arrived and we started to hand them out on Lesvos
On Tuesday we finally got the guide! We were really happy and started to hand out them at the same day. We went to Moria and Kara Tepe and gave it to the people we met. This year it is much more difficult, we are not allowed to enter the camps and we can only reach some refugees. If we can speak with them they are happy to get informations – like we know it from the last years. In the last time there have been organisations which tried to hand out bibles and religious things. Because of that there is a big mistrust against everybody who is handing out paper. In Kara Tepe we have not been allowed to hand out the guides between the cantinas which are in front of the camp and where the people are sitting. We had to stand close to the dangerous road – outside the ground which belongs to the camp. In Moria they check identities of two of us – the cantinas are on the other side of the road, so that we could stay there and continue.
When we started to hand out the guides we realised that this year the French version is missing because there are many more people from (western) Africa here in Lesvos. Many of them are French speakers. We will try to speed up the French translation to at least have an online version.
What is really clear this year: everything is controlled very much. Many big NGOs are working in the camps, networks like us are not welcome and they don't let us in. This was really frustrating, although we met people, spoke with them and spread the guides.

Journey Back to the Border 2016 on Lesvos – Part I
In October we, Welcome to Europe (W2EU) and Youth Without Borders, return again to Lesvos to the place of our first encounters, our first arrivals to Europe, the place that reflects the current EU border regime like no other. Many things have changed since our last "Journey back to the Border": the infamous EU-Turkey deal has "helped" to decrease the numbers of arrivals of boats drastically compared to "the long summer of migration 2015". Moria has been transformed into a "hotspot" with an immense number of NGOs providing their visions of humanitarian and financial aid.
The next week we want to inform on this blog about our actions on the island. It is especially for all those from our group who were not able to join the "Journey back to the Border" of this year.
You are here with us in our thoughts!!
19th of October
After days of preparation we started on Wednesday with visiting our Memorial in Thermi that we set up in 2013. The memorial commemorates 27 people that drowned in 2012 representing all the people that lost their lives at the border of Fortress Europe. We wanted to renew the stone to resist the harsh weather conditions of the Sea. First, we cleaned the place and met with local people to discuss the materials, design and ways how to maintain this place in the future. Then, we planned a ceremony that we want to hold on Monday to commemorate the ongoing death in the Mediterranean.
After Thermi we went to Moria to see how the place has changed. Approaching the prison we couldn't believe our eyes: It was hard to find a parking space with very long lines of parked cars around the entrance. Mostly they had signs of car rentals or NGOs. It was very clear that the owners of the cars are somehow working inside the prison – as you can't enter without a permit.
Moria has been further "fortified" with fences and barbed wire, more containers have been built to increase the number of detainees. It looks like, it sounds like, it tastes like a prison even though some people can partly go out after being registered. There was no sign of the recent fire. The flames have been extinguished with daily business taking over.
Around the entrance little businesses have emerged, a taxi line waiting to bring people to the city and a handful of canteens where you can buy food or drinks with the jolly company of civil cops or other mysterious figures… Not a good place to get in contact with people.

Then, we went to Kara Tepe, the former open camp for Syrians and Iraqis. It is now for people of mixed nationalities. We had the impression that there are more families and women than in Moria. Again, this place was full of NGOs that were going in and out.
We sat with Mahdi, his mother Fatima and her friends outside. Mahdi is a friend who lived for many years in Villa Azadi in Agiassos on Lesvos as a minor. He has arrived to Germany (six years ago), learned the "Hessen" accent of German and would like to marry his girlfriend there. For this he wants his mother living at his side – which is why he came to Mytilini to organize and speed up the family reunification procedure. It is a scandal that Fatima is in Kara Tepe since four months being sick while her whole family is in Germany waiting for her. She is one of thousands of refugees who are stuck in Greece due to policies following the EU-Turkey deal.
After this we went down to the beach where the No Border Kitchen is currently located after having been evicted several times and have again an ultimatum until the 1st November to leave their "social centre".
Slowly people from our group arrived this day and dropped in. Also there arrived Hassanjan to visit his small brother whom he hadn't seen for four years.
Among us there are two people here to speed up their family reunification. It shows again that we can make things short while administration takes way too long!!
In the evening we all sat down and ate in a Taverna to celebrate that we are together again even though we miss all those who were not able to come this year.
In the night we went to visit people from ERCI (European Rescue Committee International) on their night shifts. Next to the airport we found two volunteers sitting and watching the sea for new arriving boats. We made a bonfire and talked about their and our work also with Watch the Med Alarm Phone. ERCI has two boats to assist in rescue operations, they work in close cooperation with the Greek Coastguard and Frontex.
On Thursday we went in the morning to accompany Siniparxis on their excursion with unaccompanied minors from Moria. Siniparxis is a long-existing local solidarity network. They organise this kind of excursion since half a year every week to give the imprisoned youth the chance to get away from prison for a few hours. As it was an excursion from prison there were also "social workers"/ guards with us. This was strange for us.
This week it was the turn of the Afghan minors. Two of us went to take the young guys from prison and the others later joined in at the end of the harbour where there is a "Luna Park". Here, there is a place for bumper cars ("Autoscooter") which specially opened for the visit in the morning. It was a surreal scenery as we watched them singing, dancing, shouting and crashing into each other with the bumper cars being decorated with all kind of national flags. Of course the car with the EU flag was the only that didn't work…
They were having a lot of fun even though there were still in a context of prison. As the place was directly at the seaside you could see Turkey in a clear view which made the whole situation even more absurd.
From the "Luna Park" the youngsters were transferred to a place where they could watch a local master of handmade pottery doing his job. In the end we went to a café in Kagianni, a village with a splendid view over Mytilini and on the side towards Turkey where everyone took a lot of obligatory selfies.
The last two weeks we talked with the young people about their dreams and wishes for their future professions. They made drawings out of this which we aim to make an exhibition out of them.
In the end, we shared our thoughts that we understand that now it is very difficult to think about their future but the situation they are in will not last forever. For this it was very good that Hassanjan was there, too and who has been in their situation some years ago and lives in Germany now. It was cool when everyone realized that they knew Hassanjan's little brother. Finally, everyone departed back to prison and left us behind with mixed feelings.
After this we welcomed Reimer and Ömer, a Alarmphone member from Izmir (Turkey), and had a plannery in Café Pi. In the evening we ate together and went to dance in Bobiras to the DJ-music of our friend Leonidas from the band Alcalica.
On Friday some of us went with the second group of minors from Moria to do the trip like on Thursday.
Afterwards we had planned a farewell party in Panagiouda for Mahdi and his mother Fatima.
Because of the extremely slow Greek bureaucracy, Fatima has already waited about two months to get an appointment to apply for family reunification even though her whole family is in Germany. Mahdi, her truly awesome son, had come from Hessen (Germany) to visit her for two weeks and to help organizing the legal process for family reunification. In Kara Tepe Fatima has met other Afghan women and appears to be very warm-heartingly socializing.
With about 10 afghan women and their children who left their husbands at the gate of Kara Tepe we went to eat fish in Panagiouda. We sang, played guitar, danced with the children and made a nice farewell party for Mahdi and his mother.
To their future reunification in Germany, so they can be together for the future marriage of Mahdi!!
We all exchanged contacts and talked how to be in touch to speed up the legal procedures. It was hard to say goodbye but the evening left us with hope that we all could meet in a better situation in Germany or elsewhere.
On Saturday we went to the beach to swim as we were brave enough to resist the cold water.
In the evening we joined the weekly demonstration against the current EU policies and especially the situation in Moria (every Saturday evening at 6 pm) supported by people from the No Border Kitchen. Approximately a hundred people crossed the harbour of Mytilini two times, shouting and demanding the end of the EU-Turkey deal and open borders.
Later we cooked different dishes with pumpkin and sat together to eat. Irem and Valerio who had joined us from Izmir (Turkey) talked to us about the current complex and hard situation in Turkey after the EU-Turkey deal. It was a warm evening and it was very nice to exchange while sitting together.

ACT general information on the eligibility, pattern, exam dates, test centers in India, exam fee (test price) and the best free ACT preparation material.
If you have a dream to land abroad after your board exams, you need to step up and ace some other tests too! ACT is a standardized test for undergraduates to prove their mettle in front of admission committees of the foreign lands.
It was introduced as a competitor to the SAT in 1959, and the two tests closely mirror each other in their objective (serving as a reliable indicator of college preparedness for high school students) and the framework adopted to achieve that objective. Since the last 5 years, both ACT and SAT are accepted by almost all major universities for undergraduate admissions in the US.
International test dates for ACT can be found on their website, which they update every year. International students have 5 test dates allotted in total, and 3 of them fall in the September to December season. In general, you need to register for the test at least 1 month prior to the test date. If you want to be on the safer side, it is advisable to appear for it 1st in April/June to have a time-window for improvement in the usually rushed fall season. That would allow for plenty of time to learn from your mistakes and formulate a plan for capitalizing on the strengths, in case you decide to sit for the exam for the 2nd time in the fall season (around September).
ACT with no writing component costs $46, whereas ACT with a writing component costs $62.50. However, there is an additional international testing fee of $57.50. As most Indian students opt for the writing component as well, the total fees is $120, which is ~INR 7700 based on the current exchange rate. There are also the usual fees for sending score reports to additional schools (you are eligible to send the score reports to 4 schools for free).
Current ACT Fees is published on their website.
Here is a guide to give you a general idea about the common types of ACT questions that can be asked.
What's a good score on ACT?
Like all admissions abroad, the final call depends on the overall profile of the applicant rather than a single metric of performance like the ACT. Hence, definition of a 'good score' is subjective and dependent on the schools which fall on your radar. ACT comprises of four sections- English, Mathematics, Reading and Science; and every section receives a score from 1-36. The composite score (or final score) is the average of the 4 scores from different sections and ranges from 1-36 too.
However, just like most standardized tests, it is used primarily as a filtering mechanism. If you have a score that is out-of-line considering your target school, it is likely going to be difficult for you to convince them to accept you (unless you are close to finding a cure for cancer or thereabouts). The average ACT composite score hovers around 21.
It might be a good idea to decide on a target score after taking a diagnostic test.
Preparing for the ACT is a methodical process and depends on your grasp of high-school fundamentals. The amount of preparation is highly variable and depends on the target score, but 80-100 hours of dedicated preparation suffices for a majority of individuals. The official document from ACT contains the strategies for the preparation of the test.
Official ACT Prep Guide is an excellent starting point for the preparation and might be the only resource you'll ever need for landing a scoring in your target range. Magoosh is another excellent resource for preparation. It contains a wealth of information and will help you in formulating a study schedule as well. Here is another link to an article that lists the important ACT prep websites you can benefit from.
Here is a link to locate ACT test centers in India. It is a good idea to do some preliminary research about testing centers, as the setting of the test might play a role in your disposition (and hence performance). Moreover, it is advisable to book the best slot/center combination as early as possible.
Official Practice Test by ACT is a handy resource if you are just starting with your preparation. It includes a full-length practice test (including a writing test) and also lists down strategies to cope during exam preparation and test day tips. Kaplan and Princeton Review also provide free sample practice tests. Here is a link to the resource that has a collection of free full-length ACT practice tests.
Here is a list of best books for ACT recommended by Magoosh, if you want to go above and beyond the free resources.

Rochester expects to gain support from state restructuring board The city of Rochester on Tuesday is expected to get a review of its finances approved by the state's state Financial... Check out this story on lohud.com: http://lohud.us/1enNihV
Joseph Spector, Albany Bureau Chief Published 2:59 p.m. ET Feb. 11, 2014
The city of Rochester on Tuesday is expected to get a review of its finances approved by the state's state Financial Restructuring Board.
The board, set up last May, plans to approve the city's application, making it the largest city in the state to seek the board's help.
Statewide, there are 389 counties, cities, towns and villages eligible for assistance. But the board's authority is limited, such as not being able to break union contracts.
The 10-member board, which met for the first time back in September, includes state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli and Attorney General Eric Schneiderman.
The city of Rochester, under former Mayor Thomas Richards, decided last November to apply for the board's help. The city, the state's third largest with a population of about 210,000, faces a $38 million budget gap for the fiscal year that starts in July.
If the application is accepted, the panel would study the city's finances, make recommendations and offer grants or loans of up to $5 million.

Flat roofs are not just for commercial buildings.
Flat roofs are necessary and useful when used to combine roof transitions and limit the roof's height elevations when they are in conflict with municipal codes. Though these types of flat roofs are much smaller in size when compared to the area coverings of large buildings. It is important that they be installed with the same proper flat roofing practices as their larger counterparts. If they are treated as a nuisance or quickly applied without proper attention, they will become the weakest link to your entire roof system.
Since the typical materials used for flat roofing offer a far less life expectancy in their basic applications than that of the roofing material used on the rest of your roof, it is important that a thorough discussion take place about your options. If your roof consists of a large flat roof surface, it might be advisable to use some of the more expensive flat roofing materials and systems than the popular materials most commonly used. If you only have a few small flat roof areas, then the commonly used materials are more probable but attention is to be paid at the tie-in transitions. This will allow for easier replacement of these flats when they need replacement and the rest of the roof does not.
The more popular materials used for flat roofing consist of a base-ply membrane nailed to the roof deck. A granulated surface cap sheet is then applied over the base with troweled adhesives, torching or self-adhering adhesives. This type of system typically provides for a twelve year life expectancy. The more plies added under the cap sheet will provide additional life in three year increments. To maximize the life of these roofs, the proper roofing standards are to be practiced. There must be an elimination of "ponding" water, debris buildups and surface wear.
The more expensive flat roofing systems are single-ply weather-resistant materials that are either heat welded at their seams, glued at the seam overlaps or some combination of both to address any detail occurrence. These systems are most commonly highly reflective vinyl or PVC derivatives that provide for a long thirty year life barring any punctures or over stretching of the material. These materials make excellent complete flat roof systems and don't lend themselves to use as small flat roof detailed sections. This is due to the limited roofing contractors that hold certifications for these systems. These roofers are generally large commercial roof contractors but some will seek the residential roof market that provide for smaller roof requirements.
Built-Up Roofing: This is an old term for the original form of flat roofing. It uses rigid insulation board of tapered foam or Perlite materials. Several plies of fiberglass felts are layered in hot melted asphalt and topped with an additional coat of hot asphalt with embedded gravels or a granulated cap sheet membrane.
Flat Deck Roofing: Flat decks are the flat balconies on a home that show up on the upper storied floors of homes and buildings. They are used for observation enjoyment so because of the foot traffic or furniture placements, they are generally dead level flat. This means that there is little room for error when installing a roof system to provide as the waterproofing surface they will depend on.
Thermoplastic Roofing: As mentioned before, these systems are most commonly vinyl materials known as PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) membranes or TPO (Thermoplastic Olefin) membranes. They are applied by the use of hot air heat welding, chemical bonding with use of solvent adhesives or any combination of the two. These are expensive systems that are meant to last many years in most environments. They are easily repaired by cleaning the surface and heating or chemically bonding a patch in place.
Flat roofs can work well as long as they are able to be kept clean by shedding water and debris buildups as well as any foot traffic being kept to a minimum limiting the chances of punctures.

Q: Get next two months using {{currentDate | date:'MMM'}} Using {{currentDate | date:'MMM'}} we get the current month. But how do we get the next two months using this logic?
I tried using 'MMM+1' and '+1 MMM' but no luck.

A: Try to use pipe like this for date:
import { Pipe, PipeTransform } from '@angular/core';

@Pipe({
  name: 'addMonth'
})
export class AddMonthPipe implements PipeTransform {

  transform(value: Date | number): number {
    const date = new Date(value);
    return date.setMonth(date.getMonth() + 1);
  }

}

And in HTML:
 {{currentDate | addMonth | date:'MMM'}}

A: Add in HTML : -
CURRENT MONTH: {{currentDate | date:'MMM'}}

NEXT MONTH:    {{addMonthInCurrentDateValue(1) | date:'MMM'}}

NEXT TO NEXT MONTH: {{addMonthInCurrentDateValue(2) | date:'MMM'}}

Add following code in .ts file.
addMonthInCurrentDateValue(n) {

let endDate: Date;
let today = new Date();
const nmonth = today.getMonth() + n;
var nextMonthDate = new Date(today.setMonth(today.getMonth() + n));
endDate = new Date(today.getFullYear(), nmonth, 0);
return today;

}

Army 2021: Kalashnikov seeks integration opportunities for air-launched Vikhr-1 guided missile
August 23, 2021 - Updated on August 25, 2021
in Defence Industry, Missile & artillery Systems, Press Release
The Kalashnikov Group and the cooperation companies are currently seeking the opportunities to integrate the air-launched guided missile Vikhr-1 on various types of carriers, the Russian company said during the Army 2021 defense expo. Such works are conducted to complete a major overhaul and modernization of the Mi-28N helicopters.
Similar works are also performed to enhance military capability of the Mi-28UB helicopters. The possibility to adapt the Vikhr-1 guided missile to be used with the Mi-28NE and Mi-35P helicopters is now being considered. The company is pursuing opportunities to use the Vikhr-1 guided missile with the Orion-E UAV.
The Kalashnikov Group, in cooperation with the JSC KBP, is currently implementing R&D projects to modernize the Vikhr-1 guided missile and improve its specifications. The modernized Vikhr-1M missile will be used from Ka-52, Ka-52M as well as other carriers.
Mi-24/35 attack helicopter
Mi-24P helicopter is a modification of the Mi-24V which reliability and versatility has been proved more than once. The Mi-24P (NATO classification name "Hind") has inherited the fuselage and systems of Mi-24V but a powerful 30-mm GSh-2-30 gun (ammunition load 450 rounds) has been installed instead of a flexible USPU-24 machine gun mount.
The rotorcraft was produced both for the Soviet army and for export sales being designated as Mi-35P. The combat application history of Mi-24/35 type helicopters includes over 30 military conflicts worldwide. Mi-24/35 type helicopters were the first Russian-made rotorcraft designed specifically for the combat operations.
The design of the helicopter was such a success that its modified versions are still in operation.
The upgraded Mi-35P is presently in the list of products for export of Rostvertol PJSC of Russian Helicopters Holding Company.
military.africa/2020/09/rosoboronexport-increases-exports-of-military-helicopters
In summer 2020 tests of the upgraded Mi-35P were over at NCHE NHC named after Mil and Kamov and Rostov Helicopter Plant and it went into serial production at Rostvertol PJSC.
The updated Mi-35P features high standards of reliability, combat effectiveness and survivability, wide application possibilities. Same as Mi-24P the aircraft can be used as a combat helicopter for destruction of tanks and other armored vehicles, as a troop-carrier for airlifting of 8 troopers, as an ambulance for transportation of two casualties and a medical attendant, and a cargo-carrier for transportation of cargoes inside the cargo cabin (1500 kg) and on external load sling (2400 kg).
military.africa/2020/08/army-2020-expo-russia-showcase-enhanced-mi-35-and-mi-171-combat-helicopters
Furthermore, a revived Phoenix has got new advantages. The basic version of the upgraded Mi-35P has been provided with the following equipment:
Upgraded round-the-clock surveillance-sighting system with target detection (identification) range up to 10 (8) km;
New digital integrated flight system enhancing controllability and stability of the helicopter and resulting in automated piloting process;
Up-to-date navigation and electronic indication complex with multi-functional color displays.
The armament system of the helicopter basic version includes 23-mm nose flexible gun mount, S-8 rockets, suspended gun containers housing 23-mm gun.
At the same time a renewed Mi-35P can incorporate a wide range of optional equipment and armament to meet the requirements of potential customers to expand the scope of combat missions.
It can be equipped with laser guided "air-to-air" class missiles, bombing armament with up to 500 kg caliber, 122mm C-13 unguided rockets. Installation of 12,7 mm large-caliber machine gun is possible in cargo compartment.
Regarding helicopter airborne equipment, installation of laser defense system and short range navigation and instrument landing system is possible.
Thus, Russian Helicopters JSC introduces upgraded Mi-35P helicopter able to perform any combat missions depending on demands and budget of potential customers at transport-combat helicopters market.

Former basketball star Evan Bradds joins Celtics coaching staff
Less than a year after graduating from Belmont, former men's basketball player Evan Bradds got the opportunity to work as an assistant coach for the Boston Celtics during the team's 2018 NBA playoff run.
Bradds was hired as an assistant coach of the Celtics G League team the Maine Red Claws shortly after he graduated from Belmont in 2017.
After the Red Claws' season ended, Bradds was heading to Ohio for a wedding when Celtics head coach Brad Stevens called him.
"When I got the call, I was caught off guard and had no idea that it was coming," said Bradds. "I couldn't say no."
Before he received the coaching position with the Red Claws, Bradds tore his ACL in a tryout with the Indiana Pacers.
"After getting hurt it was tough. I always knew I wanted to coach, I just didn't think it would come this soon," he said.
While at Belmont, Bradds won Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year after his stellar junior and senior years. He currently is the points leader in school NCAA-era history with 1,921 points.
He led the nation in field goal percentage two consecutive years and is ranked fourth all-time in NCAA Division I history for field goal percentage (.667).
Bradds left the Bruins after four successful years under head coach Rick Byrd, and in that time he realized he wanted to coach basketball at some point in his career.
"Coach Byrd made me want to become a coach after the years playing under him, I just never imagined it happening this soon. I am very blessed."
The Celtics finished the season second in the Eastern Conference. They defeated the Milwaukee Bucks in seven games and are currently leading the series against the Philadelphia 76ers 1-0.

He has a unique perspective, at the very least, having served as President Carter's Chief White House Diplomatic Policy Adviser. He also served in the Clinton and Obama administrations.
He has a new book about the Carter presidency called President Carter: The White House Years.
Eizenstat will discuss the Carter administration's role in the Middle East peace process at an event tonight at Houston's Congregation Beth Israel. And he'll speak Tuesday night at an event with Rice University's Baker Institute for Public Policy.

Since a weather balloon is not launched into the stratosphere every day, most of you will have a lot of questions! We have already answered the most frequent questions on this page. Further answers as well as instructions can be found in our tutorial.
Is it allowed to launch such a balloon?
This depends on your country. For example, in Germany it is allowed to launch a weather balloon as a private person whereas other countries may have restrictions. You can contact your local air-traffic-control and they will inform you about about the regulations and requirements.
When you got the permission from the air traffic control you have to contract an insurance which covers the damage in case your probe hits something when coming back to earth. Please contact an insurance agent.
With more than 40 succesful space balloon flights for different advertising campaigns we are one of the most experienced provder for these services. Our equipment was developed and tested by engineers and is designed to be as affordable as possible. In addition to that we provide technical support if you have any questions or problems. Convince yourself and have a look at our references and galleries.
Which altitude can I reach?
The maximum altitude depends on different factors. The choice of the right balloon is essential. The small balloons (800g) reach an altitude of about 25km, whereas the big balloons (1700g) can reach up to 35.000-40.000m. And don't forget: The less Helium you use and the lighter your construction is, the higher you can fly.
The rule of thumb says: 1 litre of Helium can lift 1 gram. But we recommend to use more Helium to create a better lift. Have a look at our Helium-Calculator.
Which size should the helium bottle have?
There are different sizes, e.g. 10, 20 or 50 litre bottles. To determine the bottle you need, use our Helium-Calculator.
Where can I buy a weather balloon?
Congratulations! You don't have to worry about that anymore, just have a look at our Shop 😉 You will find anything you need for a succesful flight into the stratosphere.
How can I locate my camera after landing?
Just put a GPS Tracker on board and you can easily locate your camera. It is precise and reliable. As soon as your probe landed you can type the coordinates into google maps or into your navigation system and start the search.
I am a student and need money. Any suggestions?
Talk to your friends, family, teachers, companys. If each of them contributes a few Euro you can afford one of our kits and start your own space program. Be creative! Or start your own little campaign. You can ask for sponsoring and put the logo, name or a picture on your probe. Or you can contact the local newspapers and offer them your story.

Ingredients: Chatchapol Kulsiriwoottichai, Sarawoot Kumsorn, Sorapong Chatree, Gitabak Agohjit, Supakson Chaimongkol, Virat Kemgrad, Krittiya Lardphanna and Speedy Arnold. Directed by Panna Rittikrai. Run time: 107 minutes. Rated: Unrated.
At First Bite: For the first films of Day 3 of ActionFest 2011, I decided to choose this over the 1978 Burt Reynolds flick HOOPER. The other choice was LARGO WINCH, which I had seen the night before. The program mentioned it was the international premiere of the Thai film from director Rittikrai, who was the mentor of Tony Jaa (ONG BAK). I just knew there was going to be a lot of action in it.
A team of stuntmen win a challenge in order to go to Hollywood to star in a film. Well, that's what they were told anyway. During a night of celebration, they're drugged and taken to an area full of abandoned warehouses. Also, one of their girl companions has been kidnapped.
It's all part of the show though. They've become contestants in a game similar to THE RUNNING MAN set up by what appears to be an American. Basically, they end up fighting for their lives while rich people sit in the back of a truck taking bets.
Tough to Swallow: The acting all-around is pretty bad, especially from the group of bettors.
Something to Chew On: Rittikrai portrays the leader of the opposing fighters.
Aftertaste: The movie is chock full of awkward moments, flashbacks, crazy characters and broken English. As I mentioned before, the acting is pretty much horrible. Most of the audience I was with got a few good laughs in at the expense of the villains, e.g., the flamboyant fighting transvestite.
However, the reason to watch this movie is for the stunts. Period.
The wow factor increases with each stunt in the film. One scene includes a death-mobile and a masked man who just won't die (a la Jason Voorhees). You will definitely catch yourself watching this movie on the edge of your seat with your mouth hanging open. It's amazing these people didn't kill themselves trying to do some of this stuff.
I wouldn't necessarily seek it out unless you really love action films.


If you think New Orleans is only a hot spot during Mardi Gras, you're mistaken. This beautiful historic city is filled with delicious Cajun food, street-side jazz musicians, and endless entertainment. Book a vacation rental near the French Quarter, and you'll be within walking distance for breakfast at the world-famous Cafe Du Monde (try their handmade beignets and chickory coffee). If you're up for a thrill, take a ghost tour on a horse-drawn carriage through historic graveyards and voodoo sites. Finally, you MUST take a stroll through the infamous Bourbon Street and try one of the critically-acclaimed Hurricanes available at the hip Beach Bar. If you're looking for a fun girls getaway that will keep you entertained and well-fed, New Orleans is the destination for you.
If you and the ladies are better suited to a beach getaway, North Captiva Island, Florida boasts one of the most beautiful, white-sand beaches in the Gulf of Mexico. Located a boat ride away from the main shore, you'll feel as if you're on your own private beach with your friends. The island has no motor vehicles or high-rises, which makes it perfect for watching sunrises and sunsets and searching for seashells after the tides. You'll definitely want to bring your camera; you're sure to spot all sorts of plants and wildlife, including stunning mangroves, playful dolphins, and majestic seabirds. For a destination that's relaxing and full of salty ocean air, book a vacation rental in sunny North Captiva Island, FL.
What's not to love about New York? For a girly getaway that includes lots of shopping, fine dining, and tourist attractions, New York City is the ultimate vacation spot.

Watch star chef Mark Sargeant make his curried smoked trout scotch egg, exclusively for olivemagazine.com. It's deceptively simple to make, and calls for only the simplest ingredients. Be prepared to get your hands messy, though! Scroll down for the video.
Put the 4 eggs in a saucepan and add enough cold water to cover them by about 1/2 inch (1cm).
Bring the water up to simmering point and cook for 6 minutes then remove and cool under cold running water.
Carefully peel the eggs and refrigerate whilst you make the smoked trout rice.
In a larger pan melt the butter and sweat the chopped onion with the bay leaf until it is soft, then add the curry powder and cook for a couple of minutes to release the flavours.
Stir in the rice so that it gets completely coated in the butter and curry powder and then start to add the stock. As this is not going to be eaten as a risotto, it is okay to add the stock in about three lots and boil it fairly quickly.
By the time all the rice has been absorbed you will have a fairly thick looking rice, which is perfect. Stir in the coriander, parmesan and then gently stir in the chopped smoked trout.
Once you have seasoned it with black pepper and a little sea salt tip the rice out onto a tray lined with cling film and leave to cool. When the rice has cooled completely it will be very firm but malleable and just right to mould around the eggs, which is of course the next step. You need to make sure there is enough to cover the eggs completely and once all four eggs are covered put them through the flour, then egg and finally the bread crumbs.
They should now look like rather odd shaped tennis balls and are ready for deep frying! Heat your oil to 180 degrees and fry the eggs to a lovely golden brown. They are ready to eat like this but if you want them to be warm all the way through then maybe pop them in a moderate oven for a few minutes. The yolk of the egg should be slightly runny still so it should be a nice moist dish, but if you fancy it you can dip them in some mayonnaise.
