Q: работа с массивами, помогите сортировку сделать! Есть два массива, один содержит уникальные значения, а второй много записей с одинаковыми заголовками - наименование услуг и стоимость. Хочу вот сложить все суммы и вывести по позициям за период, чтобы получить результат:

*

*услуга ________, была оказана ___ раз, на общую сумму ____ р.

Массив с данными, которые нужно посчитать
$mv_today[] = array($s_name => array('vol' => $s_vol, 'price' => $u_price));

Данные хранятся в виде:

Мойка кузова включая пороги:1:350/Сухой туман:3:700/

Наименование:категория:стоимость/... Получается я сначала вытаскиваю все из базы, потом на лету формирую отчет за прошедший день/месяц.
Массив с уникальными значениями:
$uslugi[] = $s_name;

Тут все просто - наименование услуги, больше ничего.

Сделать сами массивы у меня кое-как получилось, а вот соединить между собой не получается.

$result_today = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM history WHERE start_work BETWEEN '$start_date_today' AND '$stop_date_today' ORDER BY  `history`.`start_work` DESC");
while ($row_today = mysql_fetch_array($result_today)){
$mv_today_all[] = $row_today[type]; //заносим все значения в массив (грязными)
};//while

foreach ($mv_today_all as $key => $value) {
$str_value = explode("/", $value);
foreach($str_value as $str_val){
list($u_name, $u_cat, $u_price) = explode(":", $str_val);

if ($u_name){
$s_vol = "1";
$s_name = $u_name."#".$u_cat;
$mv_today[] = array($s_name => array('vol' => $s_vol, 'price' => $u_price));
$uslugi[] = $s_name;

}//if ($u_name)
}//foreach($str_value
}//foreach ($mv_today_all

$uslugi = array_unique($uslugi);

A: $mv_today = array($s_name => array('vol' => 12, 'price' => 34));

foreach ($mv_today as $value) {
  echo $value['vol'] * $value['price'];
}

Проверка на уникальность, выводит только уникальные значения
array_unique($mv_today)

Соединить 2 массива
array_merge($array1, $array2);

Фильтрация массива, поиск дубликатов, прибавления по стоимости и общему количеству
$mv_today[] = array('Мойка кузова включая пороги и продувка#1' => array('vol' => 1, 'price' => 350)); $mv_today[] = array('Абразивная полировка#2' => array('vol' => 1, 'price' => 10000)); $mv_today[] = array('Сухой туман#3' => array('vol' => 1, 'price' => 700));
$mv_today[] = array('Абразивная полировка#2' => array('vol' => 1, 'price' => 10000));
$mv_today[] = array('Сухой туман#3' => array('vol' => 1, 'price' => 700));
//print_r($mv_today);
 $tmp = [];
for ($i=0; $i < count($mv_today); $i++) {
  foreach ($mv_today[$i] as $key => $value) {
    if(!isset($tmp[$key]))
    {
      $tmp[$key] = $value;
    }
    else
    {
      $tmp[$key]['vol'] = $tmp[$key]['vol'] + $value['vol'];
      $tmp[$key]['price'] = $tmp[$key]['price'] + $value['price'];
    }
  }
}
print_r($tmp);

A: Реализовал вот так, может кому понадобится

$result_today = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM history WHERE start_work BETWEEN '$start_date_today' AND '$stop_date_today' ORDER BY  `history`.`start_work` DESC");
while ($row_today = mysql_fetch_array($result_today)){

Plus, because of the good weather I prefered being outside instead of sitting behind a computer.
As for the destination of the trip, I'll let you guess based on the two photos in this post. Have fun ;). Regular posts will be back starting the coming week.

Moloka'i
Mystical Moloka'i
Real Travel Adventures	December 15, 2009 0 Comments
Moloka'i is a sleepy island 38 miles long and 10 miles wide with the dramatic allure of Kauai's sheer sea cliffs, hidden valleys, and waterfalls but without the crowds. The blue Pacific laps the edge of the coastal road that traces the eastern shore. The road is shaded by a tangle of tropical foliage and narrows into one lane. It reminded me of the drive to the Napali Coast on Kauai before it was taken over by tour buses. A precipitous climb delivers stunning views of white fringed beaches far below and Maui resting beneath a billow of white clouds. As I neared the trailhead where I was to meet my guide into the sacred Halawa Valley, I had the sensation of dipping into the distant past.
I was greeted by Lawrence Aki, a fifty-generation descendant of those who lived in valley. Like them, he continues to raise taro and pound it to poi…the pasty purple staple of the people of old. The trail to Mo'oula is rocky and root strewn, but worth every effort to reach the two-tiered waterfall tumbling over a verdant pali (precipice).
Today 80 percent of the existing plants and trees in the valley are introduced from other exotic locales. Towering mango shade the centuries-old trail lined with giant ferns and splotches of wild pink impatiens. We passed by a temple to Lono (god of agriculture and healing) that consisted of seven tiers of rock walls with levels for praying, dancing, and a sacrificial altar. Our guide did not want to talk about the human sacrifices that took place here, rather he stressed the Hawaiian concept of oneness with nature, the connection of the humans to the rocks, the trees, the clouds, the water. He talked about mana (spiritual power) that is passed from one generation to the next. When he sees someone, he sees who is standing behind them. "The ancestors never die," he says, " they are always looking over the shoulder of the living person." If you are wise to their ways you can summon their knowledge and increase your mana.
A shroud of mystery hangs over Halawa, the earliest settlement on the island with archeological digs dating it back to 570 AD. The heiau (temple) at the mouth of the valley is over a thousand years old. Hawaiians lived here peacefully for centuries, isolated from warring factions on other islands even after the aggressive Tahitian chiefs arrived in the 13th century. It is said that whenever invaders tried to approach, the seas rose in response to the powerful prayers of the priests. These priests were the keepers of the poison god and birds that flew over the trees, which were used to carve his image, would drop from the sky.
By the time of Kamehameha the Great (1750-1819) priests could pray a person to death. One of the reasons Moloka'i has been slow to develop is that these ana'ana priests were greatly feared by other islanders who were pleased to leave them alone.
When we reached the pool beneath the falls, I couldn't wait to plunge into the bracing waters. After lunch I dried off on the rocks on the sun like Mo' the great lizard spirit who guards these waters. Too soon we left what is the most authentic Hawaiian experience in all the islands and headed back to the 21st century. At the end of the hike, I bade farewell to the other guests and took a few extra steps to a protected white-sand beach for a private swim in the delicious rolling surf of Halawa Bay.
Laid-back Hotel Moloka'i rests beneath swaying palms on tranquil waters protected by a thirty-mile reef. Centrally located near Kaunakakai town and harbor it makes a good home base for explorations that include mule rides or hikes into the Kalaupapa Peninsula, Kamakou Preserve, and the dry west side of the island, home to some of the most gorgeous beaches in the world and the Mo'omomi Dunes. The hotel concierge will be happy to make arrangements for you for any of the Island adventures. Most people, however, come here for what the Island is most famous for…doing nothing. Evenings are spent swinging in a hammock beneath a haunting moon and listening to the sweet voices of local talent crooning Hawaiian favorites. With a light breeze off the calm Pacific, a belly full of ahi, teriyaki strips, crab cakes, poke, ribs, and coconut shrimp from the Hula Shores restaurant. . . well, my friends, this traveler could ask for nothing more. This recently renovated landmark hotel has retained its South Seas "glitch in time" charm. The shallow waters in front of the hotel are not swimmable, but there is a pool and good swimming beaches nearby.
Kaunakakai is an old Hawai'i time-warp with everything you need within two blocks. Stop into the Molokai Fish and Dive shop to make arrangements for a snorkel, kayak, diving, or fishing trip on one of the world's great reefs. Once you fill up on supplies at the Friendly Market and buy a few handmade crafts at the Bamboo Gift Shop, go to the helpful Molokai Visitors' Bureau for heads ups on road conditions and a map, and then head out to explore the island.
From the Kalaupapa Lookout I gazed down upon the peninsula that was home to hundreds of hapless victims of Hansen's disease, or leprosy. In the 1850s they were forced to live here in isolation. The kindness is that they were given the most spectacular setting on Moloka'i. The knob of land jutting out into endless blue backed by shaggy green sea cliffs is scalloped with crescents of white sand kissed by translucent jade waters. The highest sea cliffs in the world prevented escape and kept curiosity seekers out. Today you may hike, fly, or arrive by mule train to the historical village where about 25 residents chose to remain. You must obtain a permit from the Historical Park Headquarters and be 16 or over, regardless of your mode of travel. Father Damian, the priest who arrived in 1873 and worked tirelessly with the patients, acquired the disease and died from it in 1889. He is being canonized this year.
The rain forest of Kamakou Preserve lies near the summit of Molokai's highest mountain. It is home to 250 species of endemic plants-at least 219 of which are nowhere else in the world. Once a month guided hikes are led by the Nature Conservancy. You can take the Pepe'opae hike on the boardwalk through what locals call "the bog" that takes you back a few million years on the cloud-draped trail without a permit from the Nature Conservancy, but you must have a four-wheel drive vehicle to navigate the road to reach the trailhead. The Waikolu Valley Overlook that provides views of the dramatic north shore is on the way to the trailhead.
On Molokai's northwest coast visitors can access Mo'omomi Preserve, one of the last intact coastal dune ecosystems in Hawai'i. Windswept dunes harbor native plants, nesting sea turtles, colonies of shearwaters, and numerous other birds. The Nature Conservancy offers guided hikes once a month, but you may enter without a permit or guide if you pick up a key for the gate to the preserve at the Nature Conservancy office. The catch is that the road to the gate can't be reached unless you have four-wheel drive. Most of the roads are good on Moloka'i, but those to Mo'omomi and Kamakou Preserves are deeply rutted. Happily, Alamo Car Rental delivered a fleet of brand new shiny jeeps to the Island that you can rent for about $50 a day.
If you just want to lie back and slosh in the surf, head for the dry west side of the Island. Highway 460 deposits you at Dixie Maru, where you can swim safely in a protected cove. Condos are available for rent or purchase on this side of the Island, but there are no towns. Moloka'i is a microcosm of the environmental battles raging throughout the islands. It is especially acute here where locals have made a hard stand against development. This has cost them dearly on an economic level, but because of this their beaches remain uncluttered and peaceful. I shared the delicious waters of Dixie Maru with perhaps six others and I had Papohaku Beach, a three-mile sweep of deep powder sand, all to myself. Here, deep swells rise to white bearded monsters that pound home Mother Nature's message: "Don't mess with me." Locals turned up for happy hour with pupus (appetizers) and beach chairs to watch the sun slip into a pastel sea.
The next time I visit Moloka'i, I will contact Island guide, Walter Naki. For $50 he will take visitors out for four hours of kayaking or hiking into hidden gems throughout the Island. He is filled with great aloha, loves to talk story, and knows the Island like the back of his hand. I will time my visit in the summer so that I can explore the north shore with him. Ten months of the year enormous waves crash at the foot of the sheer sea cliffs preventing landings in four epic valleys that were once home to the ancestors. Waterfalls streaming down cliffs cloaked in shaggy verdure, scented with ginger, protected by ti plants remain isolated rugged and wild. Perhaps mischievous spirits of the priests of the past want mystical Moloka'i to stay that way.

Indiana settled for a bit less, setting a standard of at least 1,000 students in each district, which would have meant a minimum of about 80 students per class in a one-high-school district. Another guideline was that each district should have at least $5,000 in assessed property value per student.
The state didn't force schools to merge, however, and there were hold-outs. Even today, there are 53 school corporations with fewer than 1,000 students. Indiana is near the middle of the states when it comes to average school-district size.
"Heavy was a political realist," Baldwin said. "He recognized that, while there were standards, maybe the best thing was to clear the slate and get what he could get at the time."
Baldwin, who was a school superintendent in Bloomington, Terre Haute and Indianapolis Wayne Township as well as North Manchester, said large districts have obvious advantages, like having bigger high schools that offer more advanced courses and electives. But smaller districts may have the edge when it comes to knowing all their students and treating them as individuals.
Another question is whether school districts have the financial capacity to meet their students' needs. Many of Indiana's school buildings, especially its high schools, were built during the 1960s consolidations and are due for replacement or expensive renovations.
Baldwin's own roots are in Miami County in north-central Indiana, and he grew up at a time when nearly every small town and rural township had a high school. When the school reorganization law came along, he was superintendent in North Manchester and drew the task of writing the Wabash County plan.
"The Wabash County committee was composed of compatible people, focused on their task," he said. "The task was relatively easy. Writing the plan became an exercise, following state guidelines."
It didn't go so smoothly everywhere. In some counties, debates grew heated as residents of rural areas and small towns resisted consolidation or disagreed about how it should happen. My uncle, Curtis Melloncamp, was trustee of Grassy Fork Township in Jackson County and angered some of his constituents by backing the consolidation that merged Tampico schools with schools in Brownstown.
"Some of the opposition came because the small schools were losing their basketball teams," Baldwin said. "The basketball team was associated with the community, and they didn't want to give that up."
That's certainly true, and it's also the case that, as historian James Madison has written, the Indiana way is a cautious and conservative way. Hoosiers accommodate themselves to change, but only when they've been persuaded it's appropriate or necessary.
That makes it even more remarkable that so many of them, in the conservative era of the late 1950s and early 1960s, embraced rapid educational change in the interest of better schools for their children.

In one of its rare sporadic comments about arrests and trials of Tibetans, China said Nov 4 that it had so far sentenced 55 Tibetans for their involvement in the Mar 14 unrest in Lhasa. Baema Cewang, vice chairman of the regional government, made the remarks during a meeting with Michael Andrew Johnson, a visiting member of the Australian House of Representatives, reported China's official Xinhua news agency Nov 4.
The bald comment was devoid of any details about names, charges, jail terms, dates of the trials and other details. What this does mean, however, is that 13 more Tibetans had been tried and sentenced after Sep 3. Before that, China tried and sentenced to jail terms of up to life a total of 42 Tibetans in two batches on Apr 29 and Jun 20-21 for "arson, robbery, disrupting public order and attacking government offices, among other crimes".
Cewang has said the authorities detained 1,317 Tibetans in connection with the Mar 14 unrest in Lhasa, of whom 1,115 were subsequently released. The authorities had earlier said no Tibetans had so far been sentenced to death, raising the possibility of such punishment in future trials.
China said 18 civilians, including three Tibetans, and a Chinese policeman died in the Mar 14 unrest in Lhasa. The exile Tibetan government maintains that as of Jul 31, there had been 218 confirmed deaths of Tibetan civilians, 1,290 Tibetans injured and 6,705 Tibetans detained or arrested across the Tibetan Plateau in the Chinese crackdown on the March Tibetan uprising. It said the actual figures in all these cases were likely to be much higher, with the Dalai Lama telling the French newspaper Le Monde, in its Aug 21 edition, that 400 had been killed in the Lhasa area alone.
Johnson, a pro-China Australian MP, was leading a media delegation of two from his country at a time when China had refused to respond to an existing request from members of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Tibet to undertake a fact-finding mission to Lhasa.

NFL deducts Saints draft pick, issues $500K fine for maskless celebration
John Sigler
November 29, 2020, 5:38 AM ·3 min read
Saints are fined $500,000 and have a 7th-round draft pick taken away for post-game maskless celebrations after win in Tampa, sources tell ESPN.https://t.co/srjLEuOb6w
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) November 29, 2020
It's a Sunday during the NFL regular season, which means ESPN's Adam Schefter is here with his latest Sunday morning splash report. This time he's reporting that the NFL has deducted a seventh-round draft pick and $500,000 in cash from the New Orleans Saints following a postgame celebration in which Saints players and coaches did not wear masks following their Week 9 thrashing of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The Saints were one of many teams to share videos of that sort of celebration on social media, but Schefter reports that the NFL is considering New Orleans a repeat offender against its COVID-19 protocols after Saints coach Sean Payton was fined for not covering his face in games early this season. An example Schefter points to in his report is the Las Vegas Raiders' repeat offenses, which sparked an outbreak of infections that forced game rescheduling.
To be clear: this isn't Schefter's opinion, he's echoing what his league sources are telling him and carrying their water to maintain that relationship for future reporting. But that doesn't change the fact that it's a false equivalence and another instance of the NFL making an example out of the Saints organization to get everyone else in line. It's bogus for the NFL to punish the Saints for something other teams were doing, and the Saints are rightfully appealing the penalties.
And the loss of a seventh-round draft pick isn't huge, in the grand scheme of things. The Saints botched this year's seventh rounder by drafting Mississippi State quarterback Tommy Stevens and failing to convert him to tight end, cutting him loose after some time on the practice squad. Fans like to think these seventh rounders can always turn into the next Marques Colston or Zach Strief, but more often they're just another Marcus Murphy, Marcel Jones, or Adrian Arrington.
Saints owner Gayle Benson has likely spent more than the $500,000 fine from the league office on enhanced COVID-19 precautions for her team beyond what the NFL has called for, like renting out entire hotels for the team to stay at during road trips and privately chartering larger aircraft so players can social distance in transit. Not to mention the extensive testing offered to media covering the team at their training facility.
These penalties from the league will be forgotten fairly quickly, but it's more about the principle of the Saints being punished while other teams skate by. The Saints are being hit harder for bad optics than the Tennessee Titans were for an uncontrolled outbreak that threatened the entire season. Add it to the list of grievances Saints fans have suffered over the years, from the Bountygate sham to the 2018 NFC championship game no-call.


TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- University of Alabama Director of Athletics Greg Byrne announced on Wednesday that Nate Oats has been named head coach of the Crimson Tide men's basketball program. Oats, who was named the 2018 and 2019 Mid-American Conference (MAC) Coach of the Year and is one of 11 finalists for the 2019 Werner Ladder Naismith Men's College Coach of the Year awarded by the Atlanta Tipoff Club, becomes the 21st head coach in the program's 106-year history.
This past year, Oats guided Buffalo to a 32-4 overall record and a 16-2 mark in conference play, leading the program to its second consecutive MAC regular season and tournament championships. The Bulls were ranked for 20 weeks in the Associated Press Top-25 throughout the 2019 season, which marked the first time in school history the program had earned a national ranking. Buffalo went on to climb as high as No. 14 in the nation which was the highest ranking by any MAC team in past 40 years. Additionally, the 32 victories not only set a program record, but was the most wins ever by any Mid-American men's basketball program.
During the 2017-18 season, Oats led the Bulls to a record of 27-9 overall and 15-3 in the MAC. In doing so, he secured the Buffalo's first ever victory in the NCAA Tournament, defeating No. 4 seed and PAC-12 Champion Arizona, 89-68, in Boise, ID.
Over the last two seasons, Buffalo finished with a combined record of 59-13 (.819), a pair of MAC Tournament and regular season championships, two NCAA Tournament Round of 32 appearances and consecutive MAC Coach of the Year honors.
Oats was named head coach of the UB men's program on April 11, 2015 after spending two seasons as the top assistant and recruiting coordinator for the Bulls. He comes to Buffalo from Romulus High School in Michigan, where he taught and coached one of the top high school basketball programs in the region.
In his two seasons as an assistant coach under Bobby Hurley, Oats helped lead the Bulls to a 42-20 record, back-to-back MAC East Titles, a MAC Regular Season Title, a MAC Tournament Title and UB's first ever trip to the NCAA Tournament. Oats was also responsible for recruiting Justin Moss, the 2014-15 MAC Player of the Year.
Prior to joining the Bulls, Oats completed 11 seasons as head coach at Romulus High School in Michigan, winning the school's first state title in 27 years in 2012-13 and finished the season 27-1. He was named the 2013 Detroit News State Coach of the Year, the Detroit Free Press State Coach of the Year, and BCAM State Coach of the Year.
Prior honors include 2009 Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan Class A Coach of the Year, the 2008 Detroit Free Press Metro Detroit Coach of the Year, and the 2005 Detroit News Metro Detroit Coach of the Year & Detroit Free Press Metro West Coach of the Year.
In his time as head coach, he led the team to a 222-52 overall record and seven straight conference championships while going undefeated in conference play in the past four consecutive seasons. The team was ranked in the top 25 nationally on three different occasions (2010, 2011, 2013) and made the Michigan Class A Final Four five times. More importantly, he oversaw a program that had a 100 percent graduation rate and 40 of his 42 seniors at Romulus continuing on to college.
Before coaching at Romulus, he played college basketball at Maranatha Baptist University in Wisconsin where was a captain and All-Conference performer, while earning his bachelor's degree in Math Education. Oats went on to become an assistant coach at Maranatha from 1997 to 2000. After that, he moved on to the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater from 2000-02.
Nate and his wife Crystal are the proud parents of three girls – Lexie, Jocie and Brielle.


Products Used: Merlyn enclosure and tray, Mereway units, sanitaryware and worktop, Porcelanosa tiles, Radox towel rail and Vado brassware.
The Brief: The client wanted to add a small shower enclosure to the bathroom, with lack of space we decided to use the cupboard in the spare room backing onto the bathroom for the shower enclosure. The client also preferred the room to be fully tiled leaning more towards the greyer tones and a contemporary look with a good amount of storage in the room.
 Following a site survey and after a few small tweaks the client was very happy with the design.
One small thing was changed to the design before installation. The client wanted a subtle feature tile in the bathroom, we decided to add it to the bath panel and on the back wall of the shower. The range of tile chosen from Porcelanosa did offer a matching tile with a slight wave design, this tied in well with the plain tile on the back wall behind the bath and worked well with the white tiles and darker flooring.
We were able to fit in a good size shower, all the storage the client wanted, and the overall look of the bathroom works well, and the client was extremely happy.

Wow! When LOWSC puts on their annual invitational they go all out for an awesome event. To start with their Southern hospitality is over the top as you couldn't find a friendlier or more inviting club. Everyone goes home well fed. They provided breakfast, lunches (optional with registration) and pizza after the awards ceremony. Everybody receives a souvenir picture of their boat. The one-day event is always held the last Saturday in April and is the perfect regatta to kick off the upcoming season.
This year's PRO, Roger Schermerhorn was ably assisted by his lovely wife Pat, Debbie Cycotte, Mosby West and Bruce Carruthers who provided excellent race management for the scheduled three races. It was a beautiful day for racing with sunny blue skies and wind ranging from 8 - 10 to start and building to 12 - 15 with gusts up to 17. The top four places in the Flying Scot class were all very consistent with their finishes. The two wife-husband teams of John and Sharon Wake from Fishing Bay Yacht Club had three bullets to take home first place. Close behind was Deep Creek Yacht Club's David and Karen Meehan. LOWSC Flying Scot Fleet Captain, Jimmy Lee finished third and regatta event chair Dan McFarland sailing with his granddaughter, Emma was fourth.
Before the awards ceremony they gave out door prizes and there was no shortage of them again this year. They included merchandise from Flying Scot, Inc.,APS - Annapolis Performance Sailing gift certificates, and a bunch of gift certificates from local wineries and breweries. Even all the event volunteers got their names in the hat to be selected. The trophy winners took home beautiful wooden plaques with a photo of their boat. Event chair Dan McFarland's son, Scott was the photographer who was out on the race course for the first race and then hurried in to print the pictures in time for the trophy presentation. LOWSC Commodore is Gary Close from the Flying Scot fleet. A fleet of Sunfishes also raced in this regatta.
Another successful Flying Scot ACC's are in the books. Thirty boats participated in two divisions at Fishing Bay Yacht Club this past weekend. The competition was fierce as the results from Saturday were completely changed on Sunday that showed the talent in this highly competitive fleet. The Championship Division had 26 teams competing and the Challengers had 4 teams. We were blessed with great weather both days, excellent race management, incredible food including a fantastic taco bar on Saturday night prepared by FBYC Nica Waters, lots of Southern hospitality and loads of fun visiting old and new friends. Saturday the wind was between 4 - 7 and Sunday was slightly higher with 8 -10.
Results are here and pictures should be coming soon!
The overall winner of the Hawksworth Trophy was Robert Whittemore. This trophy recognizes the class winner who has been most competitive as measured both by the degree to which he/she has consistently been at the top of his/her class and the number of boats against which he/she has competed.
Perry Guy and Jeanne Hamilton were recognized for making lemons into lemonade and staying "sunny" with abottle of our sponsor Chesapeake Bay Distillery's lemon vodka for taking out a club Flying Scott and racing against many finely tuned private boats, and having a great time!
Full results are here. Come on over for the 79th Annual One Design Regatta in 2018!
We had twenty-three Flying Scots racing with some very close competition. Four races were sailed on Saturday in winds of 8 - 15 knots. We managed to get one race completed on Sunday that started with 11 knots but was dying as the day progressed.
Flying Scot Fleet 203 (FS Capital District) and the Sailing Club of Washington (SCOW) participated in the PRSA Spring Regatta over Memorial Day Weekend. Six classes of one design boats, each with their own start sequence, raced on two courses. Overall, 47 boats and nearly 100 sailors competed. Lightnings, Albacores, Buccaneers, and Flying Scots competed on the upper Potomac River Course between Reagan National Airport and Hains Point in the shadow of the Washington Monument. The regatta also served as the Albacore Class Mid-Atlantic Championship.

New York men can do a lot of interesting things in the city. But, that is not enough for them. Most of them like to go into nature and enjoy spending quality time there. They like fishing, hunting, tactical surviving, and many other things.
When they want to visit nature to do some of the things mentioned above, they have to bring the necessary equipment with them. Such equipment can cost a lot of money, and that can be the thing which might stop them from doing the things they like. But, that is not the problem anymore. With the tactical boxes, they can enjoy nature without spending a lot of money.
Tactical boxes are produced to provide people with necessary surviving equipment, and every tactical subscription box includes items which can help them to spend better and more quality time in nature. These boxes usually contain items such as rope, cap, shooting equipment, knives, and other useful things. All these items are made of the high-quality materials and they last for a long period. If you maintain them in the proper way, they will last even longer. In every box, you will find the cleaning equipment and user guide. That will help you to maintain and clean your items regularly and extend their lifetime.
These boxes are some of the men's favorite things. They simply enjoy using items from them. They are the perfect gifts men love. You can buy them for your man, brother, friend, and all other people who like things which include a lot of action and surviving. There are many types of tactical boxes which are produced so far, and there is a new one every month. You can buy one of them, and if you like it, you can become the permanent customer. You can subscribe to these packages, and you will receive the new one every month, without extra ordering. That will provide you with the necessary load of tactical gear every month, and you will like it. If it happens that you do not want to buy it anymore, then you just have to send an email, and they will stop sending you tactical boxes. It is all very simple.
The subscription box for men you buy always has a different and more interesting content than previous boxes. There is always something new and useful, and that is what makes people buy these boxes. They can enjoy different items every time and never stop having fun. The number of people who buy these packages is getting bigger every month. That is just the sign that people from the TacPack do their job in the best possible way and that they are doing all they can to attract people buy their boxes. Also, the content of these boxes and their price are also the reasons why they buy them. If you want to enjoy time in nature in the better and funnier way, you surely have to order one such box for you and your friends.


Your PEBLO should have given you an Index Number two weeks after you signed. With that, you can call NAVPERSCOM in Millington TN and ask them to expedite your orders. Then you'll receive them in 24-48 hours.
It went to the IPEB in late October.
My findings finally came back. This has been such a long process, I thought I'd never be done! 60% DOD / 80% VA TDRL!
The VA won't give you your proposed ratings until after 10 days. And yes, you should call your PEBLO and see if he can tell you anything.
If I'm not mistaken, that means the VA is done with it and the PEB has it now.
Do you have a historical claim on eBenefits?
Not yet. Hopefully, I hear something by the end of the day. Knowing my PEB office, they probably already have it and just haven't called.
I looked at your timeline and our timelines have matched up with pretty much everything except that my package was sent back to the PEB from the VA 4 days after yours. I'm hoping that this means my findings come within the next week.
I'm stationed in Virginia Beach, so my hospital is NMC Portsmouth.
Nothing yet. Called the PEB on Monday and they said that my package was currently in QA.
Try using the live chat feature. I called them multiple times and they gave me the runaround and when I used the chat the first time, they gave them to me.


During our recent trip to Berlin, I watched "Rekonstruksjon Utoya" at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW), which was screened as part of the Berlinale Film Festival. This film is honestly one of the best I have ever seen. I went into this film knowing nothing about what the style of the film was going to be, nor the subject matter, all I knew was the name. It was nothing like what I had expected it to be.
"Rekonstruksjon Utoya" (English translation: "Reconstructing Utoya") is a film directed by Carl Javier depicting a series of workshops lead by four survivors of the massacre of Utoya in 2011. Within these workshops each survivor explains their experience of the attack to the young actors who are volunteering to re-enact the events. The majority of the film is shot in a large, empty TV studio where the survivors had mapped out the environment of where they were at the time of the attack.
For me, this simplistic approach to the subject matter was more impactful then many blockbuster films and I'm not quite sure how to explain why. I think it is the emotion of the survivors, and the acting skills of the cast that make you feel as though you are there with them, and the raw audio helps immerse you in the story even more. During one of the workshops, an actor simply had to sit on the edge of the room with a ladder and a metal tool, recreating the sounds of the gunshots as the survivors remembered them. These aren't glorified "bang" noises, with big muzzle flashes and SFX, the audio is visceral, loud, eerie and realistic as if there was a gun being shot in the room with them, and impact the audience watching the film itself.
The film shows the audience the raw emotion from the survivors as the volunteers re-enact the most horrific event of their life with impeccable accuracy. This helps the audience connect with the characters in the film more and have a stronger emotional effect on audience.
Overall this was a great way to end our trip to Berlin, and I would also consider this film as one of my favourite films to date, along side Clio Barnard's "Dark River".

Football's TV billions are set to rise, but is the game about to eat itself?
Daniel Parnell February 12, 2018 Economics and Finance, Europe, Governance, Management, Ownership, Sponsorship
By Dr Rob Wilson and Dr Dan Plumley
The imminent announcement of the English Premier League's (EPL) next TV rights contract is drawing lots of attention. Football analysts have been asked whether football's bubble is about to burst yet the game still appears to be bulletproof. After the last round of bidding, Sky and BT Sport (plus a couple of others) paid a record £5.14billion for live rights and highlights packages. This was an increase of just over 70% from the previous £3.02billion deal that covered the 2013-2016 period.
The 2019-2022 deal will be the first cycle where more games are shown live on TV than not, which brings with it a distinct possibility of football overload. But, broadcasters know they are onto a winner with live football which explains the staggering increase in TV rights values since the beginning of the EPL. The latest round of bidding covers the cycle from 2019-2022 (3 seasons in football terms) with a record 200 live games (out of a total of 380) up for grabs. As well as the existing packages of games, there are new packages on offer including a 'prime-time' Saturday night slot, three complete rounds of 10 midweek matches and one set of bank holidays (the table below gives the specifics). No single buyer is allowed to acquire more than 148 matches each season.
The first deal in 1992 (covering 5 seasons) was worth a total of £192m. Out of the next 7 cycles to follow, 6 of them have seen increases on the previous deal as the popularity of the game grew and more people tuned in to watch the new football elite. Foreign imports lit up the game and the pace of the new English Premier League captured fans. The value of the rights packages grew as did the number of live games available in the new packages leading us to a place where the new package could be worth a predicted £6billion (UK rights only) as shown below. Couple that with the existing, piecemeal, international rights, of about £3.2billion (which are already being renegotiated) we could well see the value of the overall rights top £10billion.
The demand for live football is astonishing considering some of the negative, historical context, particularly in the wake of the Heysal and Bradford and Hillsborough disasters when live football became engrossed in tragedy and defined by hooliganism. In 1985, and with football league attendances in the UK falling off a cliff – they averaged 48,000 per match in the late 1960s and steadily declined to c.16,000 by the early '80s, sociologist Chas Critcher predicted a bleak future for football in the UK at the elite level, suggesting that 'football will no doubt survive in British culture in one form or another and would remain a strength in regions where traditional male working-class culture persists…perhaps football belonged to an earlier phase of industrialisation and has only a tenuous place in post-industrial society' reducing live football to the annals of history. But along came BSkyB in the early 1990s who themselves were facing massive financial losses at the time. They came with a plan to redevelop the structure of the Football League and created a breakaway Premier League – the emphasis was being solely on sport as entertainment and a spectacle for viewers with more football being broadcast than ever before, in contrast to the occasional game on a Sunday afternoon or FA Cup football traditionally broadcast on free-to-air platforms. It would be driven by subscriptions to pay TV services which would commercialise the product and turn it into a global game with member clubs profiting from the millions on offer. It was undoubtedly a gamble by BSkyB but they have changed the economic landscape of the modern-day game, and fast become the home of football.
Sky has maintained its stranglehold of EPL TV rights since 1992 and their business model relies heavily on EPL football. The move to a new, 'vertical' packing of its sports rights, with new channels dedicated solely to individual sports, means that Sky will look to protect their position at the head of the market with a strong valuation, strengthened by their award winning coverage and line up of commentators, presenters and pundits. BT Sport now appears to be settled in the number 2 spot following their surprise entrance into the negotiations back in 2013. However, there are pitfalls into entering this TV battle and past evidence highlights where broadcasters have gambled on EPL football and, ultimately, failed. There have been high profile collapses since the early 2000s of companies such as OnDigital, ITV Digital and Setanta. ESPN tried to enter the market with multi-million pound challenges to Sky, breaking up the single provider monopoly but failed to find the subscriber numbers with the weaker packages that they had won. They couldn't drive a return on their investment and failed to make their business models work.
So should Sky and BT be worried? We know some of the big tech giants such as Amazon, Netflix and Facebook are ready to enter the market. However, if any of these companies do bid for rights this time around, we expect them to pick-up the smaller packages to test their markets. It would make sense for these names to sign for the mid-week packages in their first cycle based on their business models around internet streaming. But we don't expect the deal to increase by anything like the 70% it did last time, both Sky and BT overpaid in the last round and have seen subscriber numbers diminish following price rises for their sports channels. There is clearly an upper limit for what customers are prepared to pay so without any further competition both companies will look to consolidate their positions. With the increase in the number of live matches therefore, we could even see a reduction in the actual cost per match (as shown below).
There are too many unknowns for these companies regarding whether or not they are ready for this market, or whether or not the market is ready for them. If the tech companies make a play for rights then expect them to tip in during the next process, when the market is more mature and they can capitalise on improvements in infrastructure and a shift in the culture of how we consume matches. Were they to come into the market properly in 2022 then we might see a more significant rise in the value of the deal with more choice for consumers and a possibility that you could tailor your package based on the team you support.
How does the EPL TV rights deals compare with the likes of the US and the rest of Europe? Well the models are rather different; US teams share broadcast income in a more unequal way with the weaker teams taking a larger share. This helps the competition and is the reason why we see (for the most part) different teams challenging for the Super Bowl each year, for example. And let's not kid ourselves that English football makes more in TV rights than other sports. The NFL generates $39billion (c.$28billion) in their deal (2014-2022), or c.$4.8billion (c.£3.5billion) per year while the NBA sold its rights in 2014 for $24billion (c.£17billion) over 9 years or $2.7billion (c.£1.95billion) per year. Closer to home, in Europe, the deals tend to be driven by the big boys; Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, Juventus in Serie A and Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga. They soak up most of the rights by negotiating for them individually and the result is that the rest of the league can't really compete and we know the league winner before the first game has kicked off. And despite the fact that La Liga has some of the world's finest footballers in Messi, Ronaldo and Bale the TV rights deal, around £1.7billion per year, trails the Premier League by some 40 per cent.
Is the bubble about to burst? Not quite yet, but the proliferation of content and the volume of football that is about to be shown, there is a real danger that the public will get bored of it and football will begin to eat itself. Albeit in bite sized chunks.

Tour de France champion Geraint Thomas appears to have emerged relatively unscathed from a big crash that took down a significant part of the bunch during the final kilometres of the third stage at the Tour of the Basque Country.
The Briton fell with a number of his Sky team-mates, including Michał Kwiatkowski, with Deceuninck-Quick-Step's stage two winner Julian Alaphilippe and his team-mate Enric Mas also among those affected.
According to Sky director Gabriel Rasch, the initial prognosis for Thomas and Kwiatkowski is positive.
The news was not so good, though, for Sky's Jonathan Castroviejo, who was one of several riders who received treatment for several minutes after the crash.
"Castro is the worst affected and is on his way to the hospital. It could be a collarbone, a shoulder or just the impact of the crash. We don't know yet," said Rasch, who didn't know what had caused the impact in the first place.
"The last 10k were very open. We knew it was going to be like that and so did everyone else, so everyone wanted to be at the front in case the wind had an impact," he explained.
"The road also narrowed a lot with about 5k to go and that was another reason to be towards the front. I don't think there was any special reason for the crash. There wasn't anything in the road or anything like that, it was just one of those unlucky ones that happens.
Alaphilippe and Mas also finished, the Frenchman with an extensive wound on his hip.
"We don't think he has broken anything," said Deceuninck-Quick-Step directeur sportif Klaas Lodewyck.
Lodewyck said the team's main concern is Alaphilippe's condition with a view to the upcoming Ardennes Classics, for which he is the outstanding favourite given his outstanding form this season.
"That he has made it to the finish on the bike is already a good thing, but now we just need to be sure because the Ardennes, our big goals, are coming up.

Graphic Design • Printmaking • Branding
The Design Museum is known internationally as a champion for architectural, fashion, graphic, industrial and product design. Founded in 1989 as a charity and based on the banks of the river Thames in London, it exists to help everyone understand the value of design. Since its opening, it has seen close to 5 million visitors experience its wide range of exhibitions, collections and events. Due to this success, it has outgrown its original home and will relocate to the former Commonwealth Institute building in Kensington, London in 2016.
I was asked to propose a new typo / graphic identity for the museum that includes print, screen and environmental applications (inc. logo and signage). together with typographic guidelines that reinforce the value and power of design from the inside out. I was advised to look at the museum in a fresh way – without any historical baggage that may bias more seasoned designers. Doing this project on the HND Interactive Design course meant that I could bring many different ideas to this broad enterprise.

The author of the work, Amalendu Misra, is a British national fluent in Spanish as well as several other languages. He is an extremely well-educated scholar having been awarded five post-graduate degrees and certifications including a Ph.D. in Politics from the University of Hull. His areas of research expertise include his present focus on the interrogation of violence in the political process and its sub-themes related to the Politics of Sexual Violence in Armed Conflicts, the Role of Violence in the Sacred, and Managing Violence in Post-Conflict Societies. He is presently a Senior Lecturer at Lancaster University, United Kingdom and was provided a large grant from the British Academy to conduct field research in Mexico leading to the publication of the book.
The intent of the work is to develop a theory and philosophy behind the narco-killings taking place in contemporary Mexico (p. viii). As a result, the central narrative of the work focuses on killing as well as the philosophy behind the actual process of taking life. Utilizing a transdisciplinary approach, the author then goes on to articulate his research design and study methodologies. In the process, a number of concepts are introduced within the work including those related to necropolitics as "a form of subjugation of life to the power of death" and necropower derived from "various manifestations of the sovereignty of death exercised by its numerous agents in a sociopolitical setting" (p. 13).
• 1. Prologue: The Horror—While not in a declared state of war, Mexico is experiencing what one might call the industrialization of death…Contemporary Mexico is in the throes of a narcowar… Taxonomy of Killing (killing, sacrifice, murder)…good or bad death (pp. 1-6).
• 2. Necropower—is an exploration of the process of killing. It is a mediation on murder as a human activity… to understand the full remit of this phenomenon one needs to situate it within the context of what I call necropower (p. 7).
• 3. Arguing Death—an exploration of the singularly unique Mexican philosophy behind death and dying… moments of regression or exceptional moments when humanity apes the premodern or prehistoric ritual of sacrificing fellow human beings (p. 8).
• 4. The Gods of Wrath—focuses on this specific enactment of prehistory sacrifice in a postmodern setting…Assessing the rise of La Santa Muerte, it asks why a section of Mexican society has offered its allegiance to a death deity (p. 8).
• 5. Necessary Murder—engages with the democratization of the killing process in Mexico. Focusing on vigilantism and state-sponsored disappearance, it stresses how murder has become mainstream in contemporary Mexico (p. 9).
• 6. Necropolis—problematize the narco-death relationship in the context of funerary architecture… Culiacan's narco-cemetery Jardines de Humaya… deconstructs the complex relationship between life and death in Mexico's necropolitics (p. 9).
Some of the referenced works cited in Misra's book will be quite familiar to SWJ—El Centro readers and other professionals following the narcowars in Mexico. These include R. Andrew Chesnut's Devoted to Death: Santa Muerte, the Skeleton Saint, George Grayson's Mexico: Narco-Violence and a Failed State, Ioan Grillo's El Narco—Inside Mexico's Criminal Insurgency, and Ed Vulliamy's Amexica: A War Along the Borderline. Others referenced in the work are more esoteric and academically specialized. These include René Girard's Violence and the Sacred (trans), Henri Lefebvre, The Production of Space (trans), and Claudio Lomnitz's Death and the Idea of Mexico and the academic theories within the more cloistered circles associated with them.
My initial response to the work when I began reading it was less than enthusiastic. The 'philosophical reflection' on killing and death this book portends and its use of narratives and interpretations related to historical, remembered, and societal judgement (British spelling) levels of analysis meant this was not going to be an easy read (p. xviii). Even worse, references to constructed spaces, zeitgeist, symbols of determinism, and existential issues suggested that we would be quickly taken down the path of practical irrelevance. As I read it more deeply however, I found the work to be both philosophical and elegant while at the same time steeped in blood and death—a very surreal juxtaposition of exploratory scholarship, theory, and glimpses of the very real horrors being inflicted on regions of Mexico on a daily basis.
Moreover, sovereignty of necropower in Mexico is absolute. It is much more pervasive than the power of the legal de jure sovereign, that is, the state. It speaks to society in a way that an authoritarian or dictatorial state cannot. It exercises unrestrained power as its most visible self. As a result, necropower manifests itself in the context of what one may call phobic fear. Thanks to the retreat of the Mexican state, necropower has unveiled a form of sovereignty that is like no other. The nation and its constituents are paralyzed by fear (p. 159).
Sovereignty in the Mexican context has two readings. In the first instance, sovereignty refers to the unquestionable legal control of the state over its citizens. Secondly, it may denote the unofficial but binding religious authority of the Catholic Church over its followers. Taken together, these two sets of authority and controlling mechanisms represent specific manifestations of sovereignty (p. 73).
Misra goes on in the rest of the chapter to develop his 'tentative position,' coupled together from research methods utilized across social science disciplines, to argue that Santa Muerte is beginning to undermine the foundations of the Mexican state (p. 74). This highlights how Santa Muerte is said to have become a demand-drive sovereign authority in her own right—especially in regions where state sovereignty is in retreat as in certain socio-economic spaces in Mexico City and other parts of the country. Modern life can be nasty, brutish, and short in narco controlled regions of Mexico and ultimately the downtrodden local populace, and even the narcos themselves, are increasingly reluctant to continue putting their faith in a weak Christian god that can't protect themself, becomes victimized, and eventually suffers the horrible fate of crucifixion. Rather, a pre-Colombian like god—one that is fierce, defiant, amoral, and the embodiment of death itself—is being petitioned for divine favors in such Hobbesian environments. This god exists beyond good and evil, is non-judgmental, and increasingly is being petitioned to provide protective, offensive (including death magic), and many other types of magico-religious spells to her worshipers.
This insurgency form goes beyond religious motivations and takes us down the path of cultish behaviors, utopian worlds, apocalyptic yearnings, and even instances of human sacrifice to one or more gods for appeasement or dark-magic religious petition purposes. The existence of this type of insurgency form has been recognized by a number of scholars (O'Neill, 2005; Kaplan, 2007; and Lauder, 2009) primarily within the last decade and ultimately represents a fusion of criminality, spirituality, and barbarism.
From a close reading of the Misra work, no clear referential links appear to exist between his research and arguments and the blood (death) cultist insurgency literature that has been developing. At most, he appears to have been influenced to some extent by a SWJ—El Centro article initially published back in May 2010. That article "The Spiritual Significance of ¿Plata O Plomo?", written by Pamela Ligouri Bunker and the reviewer, introduced some early and initial work on the criminal-spiritual symbiosis then emerging in Mexico and its potentials for undermining state power (p. 77). Hence, it may be acknowledged that he has independently—utilizing his own unique transdisciplinary approach—developed a unique theory related to the narco-killings in Mexico. This is a theory along with its supporting philosophical construct that very much resonates with evolving spiritual and blood cultist insurgency research perceptions. In fact, it can be argued, Misra has now provided what may be considered the best single philosophical work supporting such insurgency research perceptions as presently applies to the security situation in Mexico.
The only real detraction to this amazing little tome is neither its scholarship, treatment of the subject matter, or the merit of its arguments but rather its excessive price. While this is a very base and crass critique—directed more at the publisher than the book's author—it represents a very important consideration. Even though the work is being offered for sale at $80.00 for the discounted hardcopy edition and $69.00 for the discounted e-book edition, this is still a lot of money to pay for a slim 187 page 6 x 8.5 inch work. This will guarantee that the distribution of the work will be primarily limited to mostly affluent university libraries and a small number of academics in philosophy, death studies, and contemporary Mexico studies areas. We can only trust that, at some point, the publisher will offer a more reasonably priced softcopy edition so that security and policy professionals, military officers, and other SWJ El Centro community of interest readers may potentially benefit from the unique and important security insights this work provides.

WASHINGTON (AP) ? After the first-ever down grade of the nation's credit rating, the White House says President Barack Obama thinks it's clear Washington "must do better" in tackling the deficit.
The deal mandated $1 trillion in deficit cuts over 10 years, and set up a special committee of Congress find over $1 trillion more. Carney said Obama will press that committee to put the nation's interests over "political and ideological" divides.


To sustain, maintain and improve upon the RVT provision of free emotional and practical support to those residents of Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire affected by the trauma and bereavement of a fatal road collision. To ensure that every person so affected receives a quality service.
Over the last ten years more than 1250 people have been killed on the roads in Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire. The emotional and practical needs of road victims (including witnesses) are similar to victims of murder or manslaughter. If unsupported road victims can suffer long-term problems including, ill-health, anxiety, depression, stress disorders and other persistent mental health problems. The early intervention of emotional and practical support gives hope to those in need.
The project addresses the lack of statutory support for road victims . By providing free emotional and practical support, through professional Clinical staff and specialist trained Counselling Volunteers, road victim beneficiaries will experience improved well-being and reduced psychological problems. The early intervention of RVT specialist services will allow victims to begin to adjust and cope with life post collision.
» Closely monitor performance in the three counties to ensure delivery of the best possible care and support and to assess outcomes of this service.
» Recruit and train sufficient Counselling Volunteers to meet the needs of victims and witnesses across Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire.
Success will be the provision of a quality and timely service that provides practical and emotional support to all persons affected by a road death across the 3 counties.
The project will continue to close the gap in relation to the lack of support services available to address the specific emotional and practical needs of people affected by fatal road collisions. We will use the experience built up since 1995 to provide the specialist support required by victims and witnesses of fatal road collisions. We will demonstrate success both in the number of people supported and the outcomes of support provision.
The potential to lose key skills and competences in any small organisation (Staff and Trustees) is always present and this lack of resilience could affect the project. To mitigate against this risk we will carry out a Staffing review that seeks to address any shortfall in relation to this. On-going income versus expenditure remains a risk. We have introduced a new financial strategy that seeks to optimise our opportunities to diversify our funding bases across the 3 counties.
Donors, with their consent, will receive regular communications by way of a quarterly newsletter, Facebook and twitter. This will be carried out by the Fundraising manager who will ensure that any changes to the project plan are notified to all potential donors and supporters.
Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire are all shire counties with a mix of rural and urban conurbations and major arterial routes such as the M25, M1, A1 and A14. Road collisions do not discriminate by population, wealth, age, religion or ethnicity. The risk of experiencing road death is equal to everyone. We will seek to have a spread of volunteers across each county in order to be readily accessible to all communities and clients.
The Road Victims Trust has over 23 years experience in supporting victims and witnesses of fatal road collisions. During this time we have acquired considerable expertise and knowledge in the provision of emotional and practical support to those bereaved by a road death. This type of support quite simply is not available anywhere else within county, and the services provided are unparalleled nationally. The Counselling Volunteers receive the best possible training and supervision.
Frances is a qualified Integrative Psychotherapist responsible for service design and delivery and was integral in the expansion into Hertfordshire.
As project manager Mark will draw from his experiences of working in a strategic management position gained during 30 years Police service .

Ryan C's Prep Expert Success Story
Dr. Shaan Patel MD MBA
When it comes to test preparation, so much time and energy go into what happens both before and during the test, that often we can all forget to look back and recognize the success that a high score creates.
That's why we are taking a moment now to recognize the achievements of current college student Ryan C., who utilized Prep Expert's services and has seen success since taking the SAT.
If you haven't done so already, take a moment to check out our SAT prep and ACT prep courses to see which options work for you.
Meet Prep Expert Student Ryan C.
Former Prep Expert student Ryan C. first came to us with an 1180 SAT score.
Ryan felt there was definitely room to improve, and with his parents' help, decided to give Prep Expert a try to help boost his score. After signing up with one of our signature SAT courses, Ryan began learning Shaan's tips and strategies.
In fact, some of them proved to be more valuable to his success than others. When we asked what the most helpful tips he learned from us, Ryan shared that the Reading section strategies, in particular, provided him the most help. It's important to remember though, that we provide thorough guidance on how to approach every section, including the optional essay.
The Prep Expert Effect On Ryan C's Final Score
Ryan's hard work pays off as he pursues his sports career dreams.
After working hard to learn all of our strategies and finally taking the SAT again, Ryan saw a tremendous improvement with a score of 1380 – a 200 point jump! With that improved score available to him, Ryan applied to and was accepted by Emory University, University of Pittsburgh, Fordham University.
After debating his choices, Ryan finally settled on attending Emory University. At the moment, he is still weighing his options major-wise but he has a very clear goal for what he wishes to pursue – working for an NBA team, in either a business or legal capacity.
Business major? Law degree? Sports management? These are all viable options worth pursuing. Helping Ryan pay for that education right now though is a prestigious Wendy's High School Heisman Scholarship that his SAT score undoubtedly helped bring in.
Ryan final word to anyone about to start taking a Prep Expert course (regardless of test) is, "…[a]ttend all of the classes and do all of the practice problems, plus more." Indeed this is very important; by taking the time to not only attend classes but also do all of the homework we provide, you have a better chance of success on test day because you will have gained ample practice on what to expect.
Do You Have Your Own Prep Expert Success Story To Share?
We're interested in hearing from you.
Again, Ryan is only one example of the many students Prep Expert has worked with over the years that have found success from using our strategies. Do you have your own story to share?
If you would like to let us and the world know how things have gone since working with Prep Expert, then contact us at www.prepexpert.com/myresults.

Washington - Johnson
Zachary Taylor and Millard Fillmore - The california statehood question
Moderates in both houses of Congress hoped to dispose of the slavery issue in California and New Mexico even before Taylor entered the White House. In
A Taylor–Fillmore campaign poster distributed by the Whig Party in 1848.
THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS
January 1848, James Marshall's discovery of gold in the Sacramento Valley set off a rush for the gold-fields. Within weeks thousands of gold seekers moved toward California, some overland by covered wagon, some by ship around South America, and others across the Isthmus of Panama. Convinced that California would soon have more than the sixty thousand inhabitants required for statehood, such House leaders as Clayton and Preston, joined by Stephen A. Douglas of Illinois in the Senate, introduced measures advocating a state government for California. Because any state had the unquestioned right to determine the status of slavery within its borders, state-hood for California seemed a sure remedy for the slavery question there. Southern extremists blocked Douglas in the Senate; Preston's measure remained alive until 27 February 1849, when, overloaded with amendments, the House killed it.
Taylor's inaugural several days later contained no forthright approach to the territorial issue. Democratic editors complained that it shaped no policy at all, keeping the public as much in the dark as it had been at the time of Taylor's election. Southerners suspected that the president's failure to define an antiproviso position meant that he secretly favored a northern solution of the territorial question. Political observers noted, moreover, that most cabinet members leaned toward Free-Soilism.
Privately, Taylor, no less than Clayton and Preston as cabinet members, hoped to avoid a sectional conflict by disposing of the California statehood question as quickly as possible. By December 1849, California's population would approach one hundred thousand. California's loosely organized government, a legacy of Mexican rule, was inadequate to cope with the region's crime and insecurity; indeed, California's citizens were eliminating known criminals by administering justice themselves. Taylor planned to resolve all of California's problems permanently by encouraging immediate statehood. As early as April 1849, Clayton predicted that California "will be admitted—free and Whig!" Taylor dispatched Thomas Butler King, a slaveholding member of Congress from Georgia, to California as his personal agent. King reached the west coast in June and proceeded to argue California's need for statehood. Delegates met in Monterey in September to form a constitution. A third of them were southerners, but their addiction to states' rights prevented them from raising the question of slavery. The constitution, adopted unanimously in October, prohibited slavery for all time. Without waiting for congressional approval, Californians elected state officials and a congressional delegation. Meanwhile, New Mexican leaders also demanded a new government. By the autumn of 1849 the president advocated immediate statehood for both California and New Mexico, revealing at last the antislavery outlook of his administration. During a trip through Pennsylvania in July, Taylor had declared at Mercer, "The people of the North need have no apprehension of the further extension of slavery." Conscious of the growing sectional strife in the nation, Taylor would eliminate the territorial issue by bringing the entire Mexican Cession into the Union as states.

Whether you have a website for company or business purposes or you just have your own blog, you should make sure that it will well designed and will really help in representing your brand. No matter how great the contents of your website are if its design is not user friendly, visitors will surely leave your website immediately and may never come back. It is the reason why you should consider availing web design service from professionals. Below are some of the important things you need to consider when choosing a web design company.
One of the factors you need to consider is the price of the service. There are tons of web design companies that you can find when you searched on the internet. But the rates of the services are different depending on several factors such as the design that you like, what kind of website you have, the expertise of the web designer, and so much more. It is the reason why you can't know how much will the web design company will charge you if you don't inquire. You can make inquiries to several companies so you can compare prices and choose the best deal available.
Aside from getting a web design service, you might also be interested in availing other services such as Singapore web development services. It is the reason why you should also consider the services that the web design company is offering. Find out if there are other services which will be helpful in making your website to be better. It is recommended for you to all or almost all the services you need for your website from one company so that there will be no conflicts or problems that will be encountered while the professionals are working on your website.
Another thing you need to consider if you want to avail a service for website design in Singapore is the portfolio of the company. You can either visit the website of the company to see their portfolio with the screenshot photos of their past projects or you can send them an email to ask for their portfolio. Looking at the portfolio of the web design company is very important because it will give you the gist of what the company can do which will definitely help you in making your decision later on.
The reviews of the past clients of the web design companies are another important factor to consider. Find out if the past clients were happy and satisfied with the service they got from a certain company. Read testimonials and reviews to know whether the company is capable of giving high quality services to their clients. If you read bad reviews or testimonials about a specific company, it will be better if you just check other companies because you might also experience having problems or be unsatisfied with the outcome if you still choose to avail the service from that company. It is recommended for you to choose a company that has great reviews and testimonials from its past clients.

If others agree then It could really help to get some votes on this matter.
structure view isn't updating at all. When switching sourcefiles it remains set to the source that was open when the view was opened.
In 6.0.x I never encountered this.
mind I've so far seen this only in a single project, which happens to be the only project that has Hibernate and Spring aspects.
So it may well have something to do with either one or the other (or the combination) of those capabilities.

Петър Николов Дамянов Рензов – Зографски е български зограф от Българското възраждане, представител на Дебърската художествена школа.

Биография
Роден е около 1850 година в Ораовец в семейството на видния български зограф Никола Дамянов. Принадлежи към големия зографски мияшки род Рензовци и е един от най-добрите представители на последното му поколение зографи. Учи иконопис при баща си и работи с други зографи.

В 1870 година изписва иконите в църквата "Свети Илия" в Сеяце заедно с Димитър Папрадишки, Теофан Буджароски и Ангелко Дидон. Дело на Петър и братовчед му Ангел Андреев са стенописите в църквата "Свети Георги" в скопското село Блаце от 1875 година. Изпълнението на работата е още несигурно, а една част от фреските по-късно са поправяни и прерисувани наново.

Петър Дамянов е автор на главните икони във велешката църква "Успение Богородично" – Свети Георги от 1885 година, Архангел Михаил на северната врата, Успение Богородично от 1885 година, Три Светители от 1884 година, Иисус Христос, Йоан Кръстител, Свети Димитър и Свети Спиридон на южната врата. Тези икони са с добър рисунък и колорит. Петър Дамянов твори съвместно с Гаврил Атанасов и с роднината си Димитър Андонов. С Андонов изписват стенописите в югозападния купол на църквата в Осоговския манастир. Отново с Андонов в 1887 година допълват иконостасните икони и изписват стенописите в църквата "Свети Илия" в Левосое.

Петър Николов работи и из Трънско – в Клисура, Милкьовци и други селища. Работи и със сродника си Емануил (Манче) от Папрадища, също изселен в Ораовец – двамата изписват църквата "Свети Атанасий" в Извор, като оставят недатиран надпис до образа на Свети Николай. В 1869 година Петър Николов подновява и църквата "Свети Никола" в Ново село в Таорската клисура.

В 1887 година според надпис над южния вход, по-късно загубен, Петър и неговите сътрудници брат му Анастас и ученикът Илия Манев от Дреново изписват наново църквата "Възнесение Господне" във велешкото село Дреново.

Николов работи заедно с Димитър Папрадишки в "Свети Пантелеймон" в Пантелей.

Икона на Петър Николов има в Жаблянския манастир, а друга на Свети Георги на кон и и сцената от град Вирит от 1889 година – в църквата "Свети Георги" в Кочани. Негова икона на Свети Теодор Тирон, подписана като Петър Николич Зограф от Велес и датирана 23 май 1888 година, е в църквата "Свети Никола" в Куманово.

Recently, on a visit to the amazing Kartuz Greenhouses in Vista, CA, I came across these dreamy beaming sunburstin' blooms. These flowers were sunshine supernova-ing all over the strikingly sculptural structure of a plant and pumpin' out some positive vibes in the stillness of the greenhouse. The plant that I'm speaking of is called Uncarina grandidieri sometimes commonly referred to as the Mousetrap Tree. It's a rather nifty succulent plant that comes to us from the island of Madagascar. Madagascar is home to some of the most unique plants and animals in the world! Uncarina grandidieri, a member of the Sesame family, is definitely a beautiful example of this biodiversity.
Uncarina grandidieri is in the group of plants known as caudiciform or fat plants. These are a group of succulent plants that store water and nutrients in their swollen trunk or roots. In its youth, the swollen roots and trunk of this plant remind me a bit of a taffy pull. Crazy, ropey forms of root look as if they are pulled every which way. The look is beautifully strange and a bit sci-fi. Uncarina grandidieri is considered a deciduous tree. It can be kept small in a container or given room in a large vessel or the ground where it can grow up to 10-12 feet tall with a canopy reaching up to 8 or so feet wide. During its growing period it produces soft, sticky, velvety green foliage with rich red margins. Spring through autumn it produces fuzzy buds that bloom as boldly sleek and unique 2" flowers with deep yellow color and rich rouge-black throats. The face of the flower tends to present itself in a flattened platform-like way providing a runway for those jet set pollinating insects. The plant gets its common name from the seed pods that form after flowering. It produces husky, bulbous pods with small stalk-like structures tipped with inward pointed barbs that are designed to stick or latch to anything. The pods are very architectural.
Uncarina grandidieri likes to grow in full sun or bright shade conditions outdoors and bright light conditions indoors. It grows best in a well draining soil or cactus mix, likes regular water during its growing periods, does best kept dry during its winter dormancy, becomes drought tolerant once established, and is hardy down to around 32 degrees fahrenheit/0 degrees celsius. I like seeing it small as a houseplant in a container but if you live in a warm region, seeing it get large and tree-like in the ground is an extraordinary sight! This is a plant for those who like a little something different going on in their garden. Very unusual!

Q: Metapost: scale a picture If I define a picture, how can I scale the picture by a scale factor? For example, if the scale factor is 5, then the target will be as 5 times as the size of the defined picture. The scale factor could be less than 1. The picture could be complex. It is something like zoom in or zoom out the defined picture. I am sorry I can't give a minimum code.

A: You can do <picture> scaled <numeric>. Taking an example from the Metapost manual:
beginfig(22);
path a, b, aa, ab;
a = fullcircle scaled 2cm;
b = a shifted (0,1cm);
aa = halfcircle scaled 2cm;
ab = buildcycle(aa, b);
picture pa, pb;
pa = thelabel(btex $A$ etex, (0,-.25cm));
pa := pa scaled 2;
pb = thelabel(btex $B$ etex, (0,1.5cm));
fill a withcolor .7white;
fill b withcolor .7white;
fill ab withcolor .4white;
unfill bbox pa;
draw pa;
unfill bbox pb;
draw pb;
label.lft(btex $U$ etex, (-1cm,.5cm));
draw bbox currentpicture;
endfig;
end.
